Granblue Versus

GBV is launching with only 11 characters
>No cowtits
>No more armpits
>No Gay angels
>Barely any waifus
>Fuck all play style variety

This is about the same as a super budget ArcSys releasing in the arcades. DBFZ got 24 characters. Make sure you order the season pass though!

Honestly fuck this game

>No Gay angels
That's a good thing though

I'm going to buy the game anyway because every fighting game fucks you in the ass one way or another so I'm used to it.

Thats what they want you to think
Then they shove Vane and Sieg in there to cement this kusoge as dead

Cast is balanced to 5 to 5 male/female
Ladiva is counted as other ingame so I guess it's not either

>no cowtits
and that's a good thing

versus.granbluefantasy.jp/system/rpgmode?lang=en

>eleven characters

holy fuck that's low

even smash 64 had twelve

Every notable fighting game released on console save for UNIB has had more than 11, this is just next level jewery

What annoys me the most is they kept saying "Oh these are just the simple starting characters, more variety is coming!" Then we got Percival who is a little different but mostly a shoto, and now we only have 3 more. I hope they get enough backlash to delay the game.

ArcSys trying to do simple games has been a failure, BBtag was the best and that is just fun kuso.

The game has done so much for casuals, but how can this miss casuals love a big roster? Look at any casual discussion of a fighter and it is 90% I WANT THIS GUY NO THEY SUCK ADD HER etc. Casuals want a load of random characters that feel different. It will still sell well in Japan cause of freebies, but this will bomb in the west

what the fuck are they thinking. draph titties are one of the most popular things among people who don't play granblue. Naru is an obvious pick for trying to grab a wider audience.

You are forced to boycott it when they announce Vira so the roster size and variety doesn't matter.

Everyone outside of here seems to be eating this shit up
fightan will die and normalfags killed it

Well there's only 3 characters left
Zeta uses a spear which means she'll be braindead simple too
Vaserage will be auto-footsie with super armor
Metera is the only one that might be complex

Aliza is literally perfect for a fighting game, if they don't put her in at some point I have no idea what the fuck they're doing

I want pits!

um you got ladiva sweetie

>I hope they get enough backlash to delay the game
But the most is THAT SPECIFIC POINT.
We have to wait until february 2020 to get a game with 11 fucking characters, so they only have 3 announcements that we already fucking know.
Holy shit, what a fucking shit show this game is, Cygames are fucking retarded.

Vaseraga is still coming

>Everyone outside of here
I've seen a lot of complaints mixed with praising the RPG mode. Even the positive people go 11 is a really bad look. But yeah everyone is enamoured enough by pretty graphics and the idea it will be big. This will be DBFZ all over again

Man there was so much potential in these characters and it has just gone no where.

And this has the story mode plus several bosses and mooks

This big animated story you're talking about doesn't have boss fights, enemy NPCs, equipment systems, leveling mechanics and co-op.

>ArcSys trying to do simple games has been a failure, BBtag was the best and that is just fun kuso.
This is true. There's some good ideas in GBVS but the game had a lot of issues just from the closed beta. Shame, Granblue has a varied cast with crazy powers and Cygames insisted on trying to be SFII all over again.

Games that ASW is working on:
Blazblue CTB DLC
DBFZ DLC
Granblue Versus
new Guilty Gear
rumored DBFZ sequel

That should explain everything.

But they have Single Player :^)

Just going to ignore the far more complex character bit? That long animated story took a load of time an effort on a considerably smaller budget. The RPG mode isn't an excuse.

WHY IS LOWAIN IN THE BASE ROSTER

>on console
>save for UNIB
UNIEL had 14 in arcade and added 2 for console. UNIB never had a console release.

If you like fighting games, you get fucked in the ass. There hasn't been a single fighting game released without a controversy in over a decade. Unless you count Smash. That's just how this genre is.

Alright that's actually cool
Though with how many times I'd heard about how hard making new models for GG is, I can't imagine how them pushing this feature must've went

Base roster has 5 males, 5 females and a tranny.
I assume the Season Pass will keep the numbers equal so 2 males, 2 females and another tranny.

Might be bullshit but I remember reading that P5U is in the works too.

Omega+ implementation when?

So will the DLC be five Viras?

The director for P4U said that he wants to make it but there hasnt been any news or anything on it

I highly doubt the complexities of the character is gonna factor into the cost more than rendering the character itself. Are you gonna ignore the fact that a completely separate game mode =/= a visual novel?

Don't worry, he's gonna silently be replaced with another Knight close to release since they still can't bother with making him playable

No. The only guarantees are the rest of the homoknights, along with a pair unit consisting of already existing homoknights.

NOOOOOOOOOOOO

Did SamSho have any controversy related to it?

>I highly doubt the complexities of the character is gonna factor into the cost
The characters have less normals and less moves. That is less to animate. When every character's combos are the same there is much less to think about and work on. There is less going on mechanically so there is less to work on.

>a visual novel
Confirmed for not even playing it

>completely separate game mode
You guys have spent months going on about how Cygames can dump millions into esports, yet all of a sudden they are so poor and can't afford anything. ArcSys did a lot on a small budget, more complex characters and a big 3D animated story mode along with other single player. Cygames have done a little despite their potential.

>story mode in versus is literally just a recreation of the gacha game
why do people still play the gacha?

I'm pretty sure their presentation style is aiming to be as close to a visual novel as possible. Just because they use 3D models doesn't change that fact. Unless you insist Virtue's Last Reward and Zero Time Dilemma are movies?

I like Ladiva for being a showy grappler which fits perfectly in a fighting game, but what the FUCK is Lowain doing in this game?

SmaSho: PC version later than console release, shit graphics

Emphasis on "or". They should have at least one female draph (No, Ladiva doesn't count), regardless of which one they pick.

Narmaya is DLC because that makes them more money

>Fighting game launches with a beatemup mode
As one of the 3 people here that like single player modes in fighting games as something to do in between matches, I'm happy they're doing what many people have already suggested. I just hope the mode is fun/well made instead of jank and stupid.

Is Lowain in just because they already decided to include Yggs for the RPG mode, and wanted to get full mileage out of it

When people asked for single player modes, they meant "in addition" to the rest of the game, not in spite of it.

Literally all the characters are dev favorites, nobody was picked based on popularity with the actual players.

Oh shit, neat. I'm a secondary who only knows GB from Versus and the first season of the anime so more anime is cool.

Percival is a dev favorite first, he just became popular with the players too

user, 10 characters is a lot for a fighting game. I mean do you really need 8 characters? 5 characters is pretty normal. I only expected 2 so 3 is amazing!

Same as with Gran, Lyria and Siero VAs he has an all time disponibility

Explain Blazblue then

11 characters in the base roster??
This was the fighting game I was looking forward to the most since playing the beta but... that's just pathetic.

Who the fuck cares about single player modes in fucking fighting games? Only retarded casuals that don't care about the competitive scene, you all can die for all I care. Only 11 fucking characters is ridiculous, AND they can be learned in under an hour. Are you fucking kidding me?

I honestly think 11 characters is fine. I understand there's a lot of autistic screeching because people's favorite waifus didn't get in or whatever, but for a new fighting game, especially focused on bringing in the beginner audience, only having to learn 10 matchups for your preferred main is a good choice. I'm sure your titty wank bank or 9000 year old pedobait demons will get added in later anyway so stop your bitching.

It will have 5 more in season pass but honestly the most important part is that they will offer items for the mobile if you buy VS. That strategy is how they sell their animes blu-ray and works pretty well in asia.

user, this line isn't working for you. Like said people want it in addition to a large roster. The RPG mode might not even end up good for all we know. MK11 launched with multiple modes and loads of customisation on top of 25 characters.

>but for a new fighting game
No it isn't. You have to keep saying what about the arcade version of budget Arcsys games for a comparison. It looks bad next to other modern fighters.

A roster size of 11 isn't going to bring in the cygames crowd.
A tacked on single player isn't going to bring in the casual audience.
A dumbed down fighter isn't going to bring in the FGC.
So who is this game for?

What if you can unlock the generic enemies from the RPG mode as characters?

The RPG mode is literally the same thing as the story mode in the gacha. It's made for fans of the game.
>sequel to a previous game has more characters than a completely new game
Do I need to refer to Xrd starting out with 12 characters again?

12 characters with depth, that's pretty good.
Granblue has 11 characters designed to be simple so beginners can understand them, they have no depth and can be learned in under an hour. It's fucking ridiculous.
They're simpler than SFV characters, and because of that I was expecting at least 20 of them for launch.

Arcade revenue generates more money than the console release probably

>You guys have spent months going on about how Cygames can dump millions into esports, yet all of a sudden they are so poor and can't afford anything
CyGames can have unlimited money and it wouldn't matter. ASW's modeling can't be outsourced, so they're limited to how much staff they have in-house. Hiring more staff on your own budget for a single contracted project is a really bad call. CyGames have no reason to front the bill for ASW's hiring costs unless they were looking to purchase the studio.

CyGames is a business, even if they want to publish good games they still don't want to make decisions that they know are going to lose money.

T7's arcade release was really, really bad. It was a great game by the time it hit console, but it still had some minor drama like the other guy brought up.

fug i got a second fire harvin staff.

>wanting a massive roster so that you can never learn all the match-ups
lmao

>but for a new fighting game, especially focused on bringing in the beginner audience, only having to learn 10 matchups for your preferred main is a good choice
Try reading the entire argument before responding to it next time

Why do you think how hard a character is to learn is relevant to how long it takes to make them?

They just need to make Juri playable

I don't. But if they're gonna be simple there should be more of them. Or at least give them depth so I don't lose interest after a day because they're just that easy to learn.

>It's made for fans of the game.
Too bad they didn't make the characters fans wanted. People want both, not one or the other

>sequel
Okay then, DBFZ had 24.

>Do I need to refer to Xrd starting out with 12 characters again?
No cause everyone laughs at you for bringing up and arcade game vs the full release

You're still wrong though, and casuals weren't demanding less match up. You are desperately inventing reasons to justify it

Don't give FKHR ideas

Good thing Juri is among FKHR'S favorite character.

Melty Blood has 31 charracters each with 3 different styles that change up their movesets in large ways.
People still love that game, >muh matchup learning is not an excuse

I'm sure making characters for DBFZ is easy because they all have the same face and outfit.

>especially focused on bringing in the beginner audience
The ease of execution will help alot with bringing in casuals, but so far who in Granblue Versus does anything so interesting looking that a casual viewer might watch some footage and be wowed enough to try them out?
I haven't seen anyone I strongly want to play yet, more like "I can play Ferry or Kat if I ever get this" so far

Then delay the game. I don't have to care about the why as a consumer, I care about what is put in front of me at the end of the day.

melty blood is a dead game that nobody outside of like 3 people actually knows how to play or currently plays stop being delusional

>Using DBFZ as a counterargument when most of the characters in that game are nearly identical
LMAO
It's not like the IP really let them have any creativity in that department however. Granblue isn't like that.
>but arcade vs full release
It's the original release of the game, who the fuck cares if you retards can't play it if it was to launch in arcade?

>DBFZ had 24.
DBFZ is a 3v3. It's the equivalent of launching with 7-8 characters for a 1v1.

>You're still wrong though,
Based on what reasoning?

>and casuals weren't demanding less match up
It's not about what casuals are "demanding" it's about making a game that's easy for them to learn, and less matchups reflects that.

They're just armchair devs. People just assume a character done in xrd style will just be done as easily as Smash Ultimate.

No one now

Their best simple game was P4A.

Sorry if we don't have a small bain like yours.

If they were going to have an RPG story mode this expansive, why didn't they just make the characters have actual depth?
Now they're just appealing to casuals with the story mode AND the extremely dumbed down characters, when they could've appealed to two audiences instead.

lmao keep pretending like you know how to fight a good bedman in GG kid

People would complain less about the roster size if the roster was more interesting (both the choice of characters and their moveset). The size just makes the boring characters even more apparent.

We don't need both Gran and Katalina. They fulfill similar role both story-wise and gameplay-wise.
We don't need two homoknights.
We don't need two unpopular joke characters.
We don't need two zoning female erunes.

They should've picked more popular characters, more varied characters, and had more varied playstyles. And yes, the DLC might fix this, but that's irrelevant because people are going to decide to buy the base game based on the launch roster, not what could be added later.

How retarded can you be?

Because cygames wanted the game to be like SF2 turbo and not an airdasher

But they included most of the story characters that you'd have when you play the story + some other favorites from the time that the original story arc ran.

It's clear you don't actually know anything about granblue.

fuck me sideways
why 11?
11 is such weird number

And GBV characters play the same

>when most of the characters in that game are nearly identical
See above, you can't use that excuse when GBV is a baby game as well. This is literally the auto combo nightmare people described. It'd struggle to be more basic.

>who the fuck cares if you retards can't play it if it was to launch in arcade
Cause one isn't a full priced game. Paying a few pennies for a low amount of characters doesn't annoy people as much.

>DBFZ is a 3v3
They still produced that many characters. Making a game 3v3 doesn't magically mean you can make more

>Based on what reasoning?
That there was 0 demand for what you asked for, but there sure was for characters. The game is already as easy as it gets, you are making up a bad excuse cause you know 11 characters is a huge negative.

Why are you projecting your own issues on me?
Also, not a single GBVS character has the complexity of Bedman.

I'm not a fan of the Granblue series, but I imagine anyone who plays those games would be thrilled at being able to play those characters in a fighting game. I imagine the crowd that plays the game is quite casual as well. Casuals that aren't fans of the gacha might be enticed by the pretty graphics I guess.

but that was the intent from the get go, even when the game was shown as a surprise almost two years ago the devs said they were aiming for the mobile game fanbase.

The Gearfag's just salty that Ishiwatari won't make any new GGs till this is over. So spare him some pity. And be sure to watch the spergout when the new GG is launched with the simplicity of DBFZ and GBV.

FUCK

Why are they afraid? Do they get molested there?

So what did they put fighting game archetypes instead of fan favorites?

This is what happens when people want to shove like 5 different projects on ASW, they could barely handle 2 at the same time. Maybe after this gets shoved out the granbluefags can shut up about it and we can get back to whining about our blazblue and guilty gear droughts.

>That there was 0 demand for what you asked for, but there sure was for characters
Again, demand doesn't mean shit. The purpose of the game is to teach retards how to play and they'll learn better if there aren't 40+ character match ups to learn off the bat. Also of course there was demand for characters, it's a gacha game and every whale is going to want their waifu in it.

>11 characters is a huge negative
50 characters would be a "huge negative" in the eyes of people complaining. The fan audience is so huge you'll get an uproar of "game is shit because x isn't in it" no matter what you do. The fact of the matter is adding a million characters would be a detriment at the end because they'd be rushed and awful and casuals would drop it immediately because they wouldn't have the patience to learn how to fight against so many different characters.

people actually play KI?

>Gran is the main character and Katalina is the first character most players get
Neither of them are particularly popular because of it, it just means players are familiar with them. We don't need both of them, one is enough to serve as the generic shoto.

>Percival is one of the most popular males in the game. Lancelot provides a unique speed character niche otherwise yeah I agree he could go
Percival and Lancelot appeal to the exact same portion of the fanbase, and it's the portion of it that's the least likely to play a fighting game. We don't need both of them, at least not at release. Lancelot also doesn't "provide" anything because his archetype is extremely basic still and could be fulfilled with dozens of other characters.

>Rowain isn't unpopular, Ladiva is a grappler but other than that yeah who gives a fuck about them
Lowain is "popular" in the same way that Katalina is "popular", there are dozens of more popular characters they could've picked instead.

>They don't even have similar fighting styles
They appeal to the same people.

percival is popular with male players too

What you see is what you get

>No more armpits
You made it sound like they censored Ferry's armpits, you alarming asshole. Fuck you.

In a perfect world we would have at least 4 more characters in the base game and Lucilius would be the super broken boss character in the RPG mode.

Did they show off a new character during the stream or are they saving it for when evo is live again?

So them including popular characters isn't good enough, they need to be popular for YOU instead?

They had time to master the system tthis time around

Perpetually.

Yes

Gran is the basic shoto and Katalina is the advanced. Again this is made to teach people how to play fighting games. I don't know why you have problems understanding this.

Don't know why, just give them crazy shit to mash with their friends and call it a day, that's what most people are getting this game for.

>You enjoyed grinding for thousands of hours on your mobile phone?
>Now you can do the grind on your PS4 as well!

We can't have lucilius without first having sandalphon as a playable character and WMTSB being part of the story.

>Again, demand doesn't mean shit
Yes it does cause they gets people to buy and play. You need to meet demands to get people in the door. The game is not complex enough where more than 11 character is way too much to handle, there is very little going on. Your excuse does not work for such a simple game where even basic pressure is very restricted. You want to keep going on about 40+ characters, when really everyone thought 16-20 would be a reasonable guess. No one was asking for 50.

You know what game is growing? Tekken 7, a game with a million random shit you need to learn and execution just to move well. Your idea is just bullshit.

it didn't start out that way obviously the players had time to learn the new characters (and moons) as they added them. New players complain about entering a longstanding game all the time, thats one of the reasons tekken 7 cut its roster so significantly compared to ttt2

>thats one of the reasons tekken 7 cut its roster so significantly compared to ttt2
No that's because TTT is the exception of having a large cast while the main games where focusing on making larger adjustments to a smaller cast of characters

It's an experiment, I guess. If they wanted to do what you're suggesting then they could have just made an arena fighter kusoge and paid pajeets to model/code it and called it a day.

>Katalina is the advanced
She really isn't. Gran is rushdown, Kat is more neutral focused. Neither is more advanced or complex.

>Again this is made to teach people how to play fighting games
I always hate this excuse, if you set the bar this low that means everyone will move on quick. Which creates a dead game, so other new players have no one to learn with and have to play other games.

You'll definitely get to 16-20 through the DLC so I really don't get your bitching here.

Except Katalina, Gran, Lowain bros, Ferry, and Ladiva aren't popular characters casuals who play the game don't care about them. Those characters are just well liked by the Cygames staff.

well I believe they need Gran because hes in the title but Katalina is a MASSIVE sniff

I kinda wish they did, most people would have acted just as crazy over the reveal if it still looked good. Now we have to pretend people want to seriously compete in it for maybe the next year.

Attached: 1548709528794.jpg (640x480, 73K)

Oh right just pay more money and by the end of the year you'll have a normal sized cast.

>Io is in the RPG mode
O-okay...

Attached: Io.jpg (700x700, 191K)

Yes which is why he's a good pick, put Lancelot in the Season Pass and pick someone else for the base game.

I'm not talking about what I want, I'm talking about variety. Pick characters that appeal to different people, at least until you have a sizeable roster. With only 11 characters, it's important to have variety. You can have redundant characters or unpopular picks when your roster is 16+. For example, I think Charlotta is a good pick because you need at least one Harvin, but they shouldn't add another Harvin until they have more characters.

We don't know what Metera's playstyle is going to be but it's obviously she'll be a zoner, so we have two zoners and both are erunes. Sure it's not the EXACT same type of girl and it won't be the EXACT same type of zoning, but with only 11 characters, you need a bigger difference between characters. Again, I wouldn't complain if the game had 16 characters. It's like if SF5 launched with Ryu, Ken, Akuma, Sakura and Sagat, that'd be retarded.

Katalina isn't different enough from Gran to be noteworthy and she sure as hell isn't """advanced""" enough that beginners can't learn her (Percival seems to be the actual advanced shoto anyway).

>Again this is made to teach people how to play fighting games.
SF2 was pretty much the first actual fighting game and it had more variety in its roster, both in visual appeal and in gameplay.

>last character reveal is macho vyrn

DLC is just the way fighting games work now. It's jewey but the alternative is way worse.

Not that user but only really Percival is popular and even then he's popular with women.

Game is for casuals tho, and people who never have picked up a fighting game. The directors of the game have said this in the past.

I can understand if they were trying to appeal to Granblue players with how they chose their roster, but then it gets weird with someone like Ladiva being added to clearly fill the grappler role. Like a weird ass compromise where you try to do a story focused roster while also trying to cover the usual fighting styles, and then there's Lowain who I can't really fit into either group unless he's more popular than I hear

>charlotta and ferry aren't popular

>SF2 was pretty much the first actual fighting game and it had more variety in its roster,
I agree, but gamers of today aren't as knowledgeable or willing to learn as gamers of the past. Not saying this to start a boomer/zoomer argument but it's true. You really have to baby them, and I guess that's what Granblue is going for.

But Ladiva also just recently had an event focused entirely on her in the gacha
It clearly wasn't just a "she's a grappler so she's in" kinda thing.

Yeah and they'll get bored too. The bar is nearing divekick meme game levels of low. if it is meant to teach, people will out grow it too quick and leave no one else to play with. They've also talked about esports a lot and put a decent sum on money into the FGC. So they obviously want a bit more out of it.

Why is Vira so popular anyway? I'm relatively new, but I don't see her do that much besides being an angry lesbian

That just means that her small fanbase is dedicated not that she's actually popular.

Also males for comparison.

Attached: D2sAVDFX0AA_1OW.png (488x341, 47K)

I think you're overestimating how easy casuals are going to "out grow it". I'm sure you're a fighting game player so it's hard to visualize, but try to imagine yourself having literally ZERO knowledge about fighting games. You don't even know what whiff punishing means and the concept of frame data means nothing to you. You're that girl moving the N64 thumbstick with her thumb and index finger. This kind of person going into Granblue has a TON of things to learn, and I think the game could keep them occupied for a very long time.

they probably made enough from dragon ball to make 3 new guilty gear updates. BBTAG was no cost shovelware that served as a stopgap between their next project and the end of blazblue. All three of these games were simplified and licensed ( inc. rwby) to attract casuals who wouldn't normally play. My normie boss knew about dbzf when I told him about it believe me enough refugees will eventually move into guilty gear to justify it.

Not him, but no, they're not really when you compare to the massively more popular girls like Naru, Silva, Zeta, Beato, Cag, hell even Europa and Alexiel.
They still have a fanbase, but there's a lot of more popular characters. I'll forgive Charlotta because they needed one character for Harvinfags and there's not a lot of them that are popular, but Ferry was a pretty weird pick if we're going on popularity. Granted she ended up being the most interesting character in the beta anyway so I guess it evens out.

The only actual characters in the roster are Lancelot and Percival (and they're popular with the same people), and Zeta. Everyone else is fine only because they're fulfilling a niche (Charlotta and Vaseraga) or could've been replaced by another more popular character while fulfilling the same gameplay function.

Not him but even as a casual fighting game player it's easy to get bored with a fighting game if not much is going on with the characters.

The only SP fighting games should have is arcade mode, tutorial/mission mode, score attack/survival and practice. Anything else is a waste of time that could be used to make more characters.

Gimme Mimlemel

I can understand this

I think they made 7 million last year take that how you will

Relink already has all of this though

The last year of the game has more entrants than this year that isn't the last year of SFV
You're very perceptive, still, no one plays SFIV anymore

Ferry is there because she's one of the characters cygames traditionally pushes
She has a CD, a billion skins, multiple versions etc.

Yeah see you summer 2020

People do not move on in groups. A few trickle into trying the others at best.

Starting to look a bit paranoid

But there really isn't much to learn here. Just look at the other attempts to make overly simple fighters, it never sticks. The closest to a success is something like samsho, which actually does have a load to learn and is deceptive about it. We also don't know how long it will last, everyone can see it will have some drop off post evo.

>You're that girl moving the N64 thumbstick with her thumb and index finger. This kind of person going into Granblue has a TON of things to learn,
That type of person doesn't want to get good at games though, if they'll even pick up a fighter.

Relink will probably be 2021+ for it's release

In dollaridoos or yen

No

cygames also pushes cog super hard who also happens to be far more popular than ferry
But obviously they are going to make cog the first dlc character so people are going to buy the season pass just for her.

Why (s)he bully?

In other words Ferry is a Cygames dev favorite not a fan favorite, as it's a most of the roster too.

I was so excited for this when it was announced, but they kept pandering to fujoshis instead of me and now I don't even want to bother anymore.

>just a gold bar and a shitty meme skin
People really spend 60 bucks just for that?

>ITT people pretending Ferry isn't popular among GBF players
Just because she isn't a fan favorite in polls doesn't mean she isn't popular. If cygames actually put her in more events/story in GBF maybe she actually would win polls, but they just milk fans with skins and promo stuff instead.
As for that's some incredibly small voting pool compared to how many even play the game, and if you somehow amass 13% of votes in presumably a poll you can only vote on one character (per gender) it's unlikely you'll vote for anyone but your absolute waifu and no characters have been pushed harder than Percy, Cagliostro and Vira has been as far as promotions and general fanservice by cygames goes.

I love Melty Blood but you gotta admit that 75% of the cast is an alternate version of the same character with loads of recycled sprite/design. This makes it much easier to bolster the roster number.
The three Moon styles are fucking great though and I wish more games had that kind of feature.

Why should I care about some dumb RPG mode when
>I can just play the original game
>I can play the ACTION RPG that's gonna come out
This is just worthless to me. Just axe this stupid shit and make more characters/stages (and fix the fucking netcode)

Yeah, I know. I don't know what the fuck they were thinking with the base roster. When the first character revealed outside of the game announcement is fucking lowain you have problems
She'll be a stance character

Percival is for yumes, not fujos. Lancelot is the fujo character (But he is also popular with yumes).

Actual race count

Human: 3 males, 2 females
Erune: 2 females, 1 male
Draph: 1 male, 1 tranny
Harvin: 1 female

Considering you get codes for the mobile games, you'll have people buying multiple copies so I doubt it'll flop

I stand corrected, but still my point stands. There is one big hitter (who arguably was overshadowed by Luci and Sandy) and he is female centric pick. Which is fine and I like Perci, but it is something wrong when he is the only big name on the list.

Kek

Japan easy success. Rest of the world? Toss up, RPG mode might pull people in, but lack of brand recognition and characters hurt. SC6 also had big single player yet didn't blow up, though it also didn't have the amazing graphics.

Online? Can't see it lasting

I said SFV because it had 16 characters.
SF4 has a massive roster for a launch game, so the similar characters are excused more easily because there's still plenty of variety.

You have no idea how valuable Gold Bars are.

Ferry didn't make it to the top ten in the other voting polls either though. That's just one I could find that wasn't in Japanese.

Meanwhile say Vira has not only several skins (Ferry also has a lot of these) but also a lot of gacha versions, it was becoming a meme that there was a Vira every year in the game ontop of her skins. Her VA is also quite popular (Asami Imai). And similarly to Vira, Cagliostro is up there with probably the most skins and alts combined than any other character in the game but her VA is Sakura Tange so her popularity is practically guaranteed.

>but we still dont know who all 11 are, correct?
Yes we do, their weapons are on the damn game logo since day 1

I wish I got him instead of a gold moon

>but we still dont know who all 11 are, correct?
Nothing was confirmed, but most likely It'll be the 10 characters whose weapons are on the logo + Ladiva.

GBF Yuel is pretty different from ROB Yuel though. Or are you counting Percival as a ROB character too?

>Ladiva
Those could be DLC

So we can expect granblue to get into smash soon, right?

This is good

Why do you always act like Vira and Cag were not popular back when both of them had only one version?

He/She doesnt use a weapon, that was the "surprise"

I wouldnt mind. It would more likely be a dragalia character if anything since it has ties to nintendo.

for the RPG mode of versus, build wind enmity grid because you wont be blocking while fighting raid bosses anyway

Right, F/GO is too popular, there's no way they're going back to Tsukihime.

No way there's only 11, they're only showing 3 empty slots because there's still 3 characters that are part of the logo who have yet to be announced, they already said that there's a characters that is in that people would be really surprised to see in.

That must be why Lyria tops all the polls... oh wait.

A character being pushed doesn't guarantee that they'll be popular look at Dokkan and Katarina compared with Silvia or Heles. Just because a character is heavily pushed it doesn't guarantee their popularity. Heck Ferry is pushed enough as is.

I bet the fans could make a better Tsukihime remake than type moon can

and it works. Obviously we're not going to get a massive wave right off the bat but this is the process of bringing in new players and you have to do it if you want to survive. Mori said he wanted to make Blazblue more accessible to new players and gg players hated him for it. I only found out about it through bb and now I buy every update at $60. So yea the pipeline works. This is good for gg in the long run.

People complain about most popular characters not being included and you come in with literally who picks

Just play MUGEN. It's great to have your porn and your game together and interchangeable.

All the original needs is an OST cleanuo + expansion, and background pics which are not photoshopped pictures. Yumizuka route can fuck off.

the only eternal who would have a chance of getting in is siete

The fact that the game relied on a tie in for a sale means that there is no genuine interest in the game itself so the game's sales are tied directly with the gatcha's popularity. They have to pray that KMR and FKHR don't kill it.

Cases like this are rare even over long periods of time. Most start and stop at the game that got them in.

post the pic, you know the one

They didn't say whether or not those characters would be DLC

fucking lmao

Still, it would be super weird for the roster to be that low especially since they are using this game as their fist foray in the western market for Granblue.
I'm gonna hope that it's just a mistranslation of something like "There's 11 characters to be announced until launch and 5 will be announced as DLC", which would bring the base roster to 19 and 24 with DLC.

It's literally just two guys that draw 90 of that shit.

I think that the mind set for Cygames when it comes to Granblue is stuck in the mindset of the 90s and early 2000s when it comes to the story.

And not necessarily in a nostalgic way but rather in the tired cliches and outdated formats.

Sony doesn't allow draphs because they look like sexualized children.

If not at EVO then next month

That episode was trash tho, what we need is the cooler stuff that appears later in the story arcs.

It was the most liked episode from the anime. Literally the only ones who didn't like it were the people crying about fanservice.

I was excited after playing all 3 sessions of the beta. This announcement robbed all of that. What a fucking joke of size and picks for the roster.

The Lowain bros are so similar that they are basically one model in different wigs. They took way less effort than shit like Dizzy's wings

fucking jews I swear to god

Better than a dama bar and half a code for a gold bar. Other half being in relink.

And the Djeeta episode was liked because it pandered to what people actually wanted. FHKR really is obsessed with the main story that's they keep telling it over and over again despite being constantly shown that no one cares and rejecting the anime staff's suggestion to fix it up.

>lowain (+ 2 characters)
>Yggy
>katapillar
>a bunch of random food
Dizzy has a lot more going on in her animations though. It's just a fact that DLC is going to be more polished than the launch content.

And just with that it will sell. Maybe hard whales might buy a few games for these things.

I love Dizzys design

I would've killed for Shiro or Yngwie being playable.

You better hope that it will be one item account tied, or else whales will buy 4 copies, each.

I know, it was just to warn that user who seemed like he was thinking that you could get all of that per game bought.

T7 had connection and server issues. The tick rate was a joke. Also DLC and updates took forever to come. Harada had to write a fucking essay as a apology on Twitter

Jokes on them, ill buy it 40 times

Kimura-san better do Song, Zooey, Shiro, Yngwie and Jeanne playable for Relink.

Imagine looking at Cags pantsu in 5k when it comes out on PC and her DLC is out.

Butter is the best thing with potatoes

Not that user but I unironically started to play Granblue 2 years ago due to Naru and other cowgirl doujins, at that time many artist and doujins were made and got my attention. Searching a bit of info I found it was a turn based RPG made by ex square staff with Nobuo uematsu music so I went all in.

user understand, she was brainwashed.

I will main canon mc Gran and Ferry because its my couple. Then probably Ladiva for fun and Percival? but I wanted more girls as well. Katalina is dumb

What titcow? The series is knows for the human characters.

Actually, it delayed the persona fighting game. GG is up in the air atm.

It was known for Naru, Anila, Aliza lewd art years ago when wasn't that mainstreaam. Vira was always popular though can't deny that.
