No netplay is the ultimate form of poverty

Reminder that PS3 and PS4 Blade Arcus versions were games released in TYOOL 2015 with no netplay. They added netplay specially for the Steam release.

Hey so speaking of poverty

What's that one anime game that's incredibly zoomed in, like the characters take up 90% of the screen at any given time? Also I think it had paper doll / joint-based animation.

Yeah, it's a French Bread game but it's pretty legit good. It's got parries so brian should obviously love it, it's got a variety of completely ridiculous and initially incomprehensible system mechanics which is how you know it's a french bread game, poo poo like "light attacks cannot kill and will make a combo unable to kill unless you are in In-Fight Mode but still only heavies can actually KO." and I'm gonna be honest I still know what the essential differences are between In-Fighter, Out Boxer and Old Style are but it's fun, it's fast, you can play mindgames and you probably won't play another fighter quite like it

the biggest actual problem the game has besides being mechanically dense and hard to read at a glance is that the way the game handles Guts is completely loving retarded. On the one hand, it means matches are never over until they are actually over, which is tense and cool, but on the other, it reeks of bullshit when you land three or four good combos to slam your opponent down to one health and they land one good clean counter-hit and literally 100-0 you because it scales damage according to your health when the combo started and being on low health makes you do more damage so anyone on the magic pixel can straight up 100-0 the other guy off a clean hit but only if the other guy is on 100, if they're at like, 40 or something, the combo probably won't quite do it. Figure that poo poo out.

I bitched about guts when I first started playing Xrd but that is just dumb as gently caress. It seems almost like that, and instant kills in GG:Xrd are both solutions to a problem that didn't necessarily require changes or alternate systems being added by the developers but IKs at least have the mercy of being way easier to understand(you get hit by it you lose the match, easy.).

In that it's meant to instill a sense of tension and a sort of x-factor into a match even when one player is dominating? I can count on one hand the number of times I've actually pulled one off but it's possible to incorporate one into a combo. Personally I think they're stupid and gimmicky but it's still one of the things that makes GG its own distinct thing and not another KoF/SFII clone.
