a change in expression to make the game more accessible to more people

Yeah, because one scantily clad female character was holding back total penetration into the mainstream for your niche 2D fighter.

Honestly wish it were just one change, everyone looks really bad.

I think I-NO and May were hit the hardest, but a lot of my GG friends think it's Faust.

The fact they set it to be in America is REALLY on the nose.

This uh, smells really bad people. The really dumbed down mechanics (the very inclusion of wall break), lack of anime antics with moe/ecchi in favor of Zack Synder’s Guilty Gear for visuals, and all the pandering for casuals (those damage numbers, whew) make this the Super Smash Bros Brawl of Guilty Gear to me.

I’m glad I got into the series very late (Guilty Gear Xrd Rev2 player of around a year or so), because there’s no way I’m ever buying this thing. Sad thing is that too many normies and old-time players are desperate for a new game, and reviewers are calling it a 10/10 game (despite being one of the barest-bones FG I’ve seen) so it looks like this is the Western-pandering future of ArcSys.

It is clear why they censored I-No.

It was likely motivated by fears of what can be shown on PlayStation platforms, and at fighting game tournaments.

Sony and most "E-Sports" such as Evo has a shitfit over fanservice.

Yeah, Street Fighter 5 was under a lot of censorship for things like R. Mika. Mr Wiz, a person working for Evo, pulled ads for DoA6 for being too sexy. Until he was later ousted from working there due to sexual allegations.

For the sake of advertisements there is a lot of pressure on developers to reduce the amount of sexuality in their games.

You're an idiot. The fighting game genre will always have tournaments.

Bruh.

He was likely talking about being against E-sports faggotry like cucked Evo not against the based grassroots tournaments.

It's getting a 10/10 from reviewers because they can finally play it now that it's casualized.

You clearly didn't see Street Fighter 5 at launch.

Oh trust me. I saw that dumpster fire a mile away. Avoided it like the plague until Champion Edition, where I scooped everything for less than 2/5's of the regular edition's price. I'm not getting Season 5 because of Capcom's recent shenanigans.
