I'M SO EXCITED ABOUT THIS GUILTY GEAR UPDATE... I know it's gonna take several weeks to see how this all ends up shaking out, but the stuff they added really does feel like an all new game, I can already feel that much just from fucking around a bit in the lab a bit this morning.
It's gonna be funny if despite adding a whole new move with three different follow-ups, the biggest change for Gio ends up just being the annihilation of weight classes, though. I am so excited to finally never have to lab something out, get excited, and then go "wait, but does it also work on May and Potemkin" and find out the answer is always no. It never really felt like an interesting adjustment, just something that forces you to stick with less expressive but more reliable combos. And now it's gone!!! UNIVERSAL GRAVITATION, BABY!!!!!!
