Exactly it’s a trend these days.

One thing I find weird Leo is mostly the same from Xrd but Ram is very different. I wonder why some characters get completely changed while others are kept the same?

I could only imagine how much more positive the competitive fanbase would have been if ArcSys decided to design other characters like they did with Leo. As someone who really doesn't like how Strive plays, I'm legit impressed with how Leo is like here. They pretty much took his gameplay from Xrd and actually ADDED more stuff on to him, which is the kind of thing a lot of us wanted for the entire roster. Hopefully Leo becomes popular on the Strive roster and fans start to demand that other characters get the treatment he got.
Fair criticism. It's only natural to expect more content, new moves and so on. I like GG, but I am not a passionate fan or anything (as usual for many, I play for the visuals)

My real gripe, though, comes from people that twist our argument to strawman us and say that we are trash for wanting what got us into Guilty Gear in the first place (not gonna state the names, but some notable people come into mind when I say this). They also say the whole "we can't judge a fighting game until we try it out" message when normally, people buy games based on their first impressions. Anyway, my bad for the mini rant lol.

i know these are short guides but theres so much i need to know! can he still chain erstes > zweites? whats his bt.K like? does it still have throw invuln? is 5K still the stagger nightmare button? whats with hits weird 5S that hits twice? i neeeeeeed to get hands on with this boy
"How does ArcSys always manage to make their games look so good?" Well, for one, they save a bunch of money on just not bothering with the starter guide's VO foreign language lessons.
I think he really could have spent 5 minutes on google translate in order to listen to the correct pronunciation of the words. But it seems that native English speakers rarely even try.
Now that throw start up got nerfed to 4f and IB doesn't reduce frame advantage any more, Leo is going to be a fucking pain to deal with. Also what an idea to give a command grab to a gorilla.
Leo not having his j.236H in this game makes a lot of sense, but I'm still sad it's gone. It's probably my favourite move in Xrd, even though I don't like Leo at all.
Leo: Who’s the most important king!? Troops: Yes! Lord Ky! Leo: Who’s the best looking King!? Troops: Yes! Lord Ky! Leo: Who’s the best all-rounder King!? Troops: Yes! Lord Ky! Leo: D’aaaaaah! Leave some for me, too!

All rounder? More like, all round that ass. Because no thoughts head empty is the Leo way.
@@CreationsFlare you know maybe they changed his gameplay....it looks like he doesn’t have his rekkas anymore

Leo Whitefang is a fantastic example of ludonarative consonance in gaming because just like the character they're playing, Leo mains also perform best when not looking at their opponent

RIP to all German bros whose heads exploded hearing those attempts at pronunciation.
Nobody talking about how this madman can say all of Leo's moves without stuttering.
It's easy to do when you don't even try to pronounce them and deliver it with confidence.
It would be the same as a German person saying something in English
Not really, unless the German has no clue how English spelling is pronounced.
Not well to be fair, but I'll still give him kudos
He is pronouncing every single one of them wildly incorrectly
Yo the stages in this game look so dope. Side note: If you never knew how to understand Leo's moves now you do lmao.
