Better gameplay. The universal overhead was replaced with a guardbreak, and they gave us more options in general. More characters, better net code. Period.
This is the only fighting game I'm actually enjoying a lot, I'm terrible at fighting game inputs and this game has both simple and traditional inputs without you actually having to choose, plus the characters look awesome.
Yep, not to mention the fact you don't get punished that hard, losing 10% damage is an alright deal for most people imo. This game really enables you to not only make good use of your combos but also it lets you learn new characters without fearing the difficult inputs. I honestly hope that more fighting games will do something similar. It does seem to be the case with Project L (the LoL fighting game) so I'm hoping more games will follow.
@@Tachiiiiii I think it's only removed during combos. If you do the move through easy inputs as opposed to the regular input you'll see there's a difference.
Guess I'm saying that every comment, but as someone who has played the gacha for years, there is something that makes me happy to see one of my favorite streamers just enjoying the Granblue world.
That last fight, the other player was using the helmet skin, which is a DIRECT reference to Guts' Berserk armor from Berserk. Even the red eye slits are similar, including the design of the helm makes Sig appear to have dog ears, which alludes to the only other fighting game character of the same name; Sig/Nightmare from the Soul series fighting games is absolutely a reference to Guts from Berserk; They both, Sig from Soul Calibur & Guts, kill their own dad, & both struggle with blood-lust consuming them. In fact, in SC2, Nightmare & Sig are the same character & his armor looks like he has dog ears on his helmet as well. Pretty cool
This game is honestly my new favorite fighting game, it could be because it’s new and I’m bored of sf6 but I honestly enjoy this game way more than sf6.
It's been the opposite for me cuz ngl SF6 still has me try to push on the game even after a bad session With this game I feel like I'm struggling to get people to open up so that's been frustrating on my end.
5:40 that's actually not a low damage combo , it's quite the chunky one , but since Ladiva has like i believe the highest health pool in the game at around 18k , it seems low.
As someone who hasn;t played a fighting game since P4 Ultimax, anyone think this is a good game to pick up to hop back into Anime Fighters? And if so, are there any "oddball" playstyle characters in it?
Absolutely, I would say so. I came from strive after a long hiatus and have been enjoying granblue as a permanent replacement. It's easier to grasp compared to others
Depends what you mean by “oddball”. The only “oddball” characters I’d say are Nier, Narmaya and Grimnir. Grimnir and Nier feel like they belong in Blazblue, and Nier literally uses a persona, but she plays more like Shadow Labrys as far as a “puppet” character goes. Vira has an install command grab/super so if you’re into a character that can transform then she’s a fun option. Percival can give himself tokens and spends them to power up his special moves. Avatar Belial sacrifices health to cast attacks. Grimnir can place seals around the arena(think Dr. strange from UmVC3) and can command dash if he’s on top of a seal. Narmaya is the games premiere stance switcher. Other than that, not sure who else is gimmicky or odd.
There isnt ant ultra weird characters like Teddy and Faust but Lowain is as close as you get. He is VERY WEIRD and not as rush down as Teddy can, leaning on the zoning but he is very funny and the only character who can consistently heal. Which lead to shenanigans.
A good Siegfried player can be a pain to deal with, as much as people complain about Nier I have more trouble with Sieg and Seoux. But as a Ferry main anyone that rushes you down is terrible lol
24:10 this is like Guts (Berserk Armor) vs Siegfried... too bad Max didn't show the mod version of Siegfried's SSBA showing the picture of YoVideoGames in the short flashback scene...🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Man every time I watch one of these it makes me want to play more, I just wish my game wasn't bugging out on the connection. Can't rematch people which really hampers the enjoyment of it.
I do wonder if he's seen (or will see) the mod that replaces the memory flash in Siegfried's super to a screencap of YoVideogames. It'd be so funny if he shadowdrops the fact he installed it on another stream.
I'm trying to get into fighting games and I got myself an arcade stick. What's better for this game, a controller or a stick ? I got the stick for Tekken but want to use it for SF6 as well. Any advice for someone starting on a stick ?
Probably should have gone with just a controller before investing in a stick right away if you're just starting out. This game feels great on a controller due to the simple inputs, but it's mostly just preference nowadays
This game feels specially nice on pad because you don't have to do motion inputs, so I play it on pad instead of hitbox sometimes. Stick is definitely fine, though. There is a free version with 4 characters, so you should probably try it and see how it feels.
@eduardoserpa1682 I already purchased the full version as I know I love fighting games and have a good understanding of how the work (Frame data, Frame traps, throw techs, footsies, pressure eg.) I just am in the early stages of combo strings and nailing the inputs
@superluismigueL100 I got a stick mostly for tekken as I found it harder on a controller with some inputs, I love fighting games I'm just not great at them and have found that the stick has helped me with the input motions as pad was a bit tricky with the small stick as I have big hands
24:07 Shadow of the true self... No but that was a treat of a mirror match to watch, LOL. (Funny enough: Siegfried's 5-star fate episode in the mobile game actually has this as a plot point haha)
I actually finally got vanilla Siggy from Classic banner after the final roulette yesterday, so that'll eventually be on my docket oh who am I kidding I have 23 pages of Fates to clear
Stupid Anti Nier tech If you play Lowain and do any of his installs Nier's SSBA just doesnt work as the hit after the counter is technically a hit grab.
MAX, CAN YOU PLEASE DO A REVIEW VIDEO ON A GAME CALLED MARTIAL MASTERS?? IT WILL REMIND YOU OF SOMETHING, WOULD LOVE TO HEAR YOUR OPINION ON THIS GAME FROM 2001. THANKX DOOD
The rollback feel really good and stable 95% of the time, but it can chug a bit when the opponent is playing on a very old PC. Even then, it feels a bit better than Strive in that regard.
I'm not sure if this is in bad taste or not, but i feel like the mod wouldve hit 20x's harder if Benny was in that flashback photo or having it include everyone in the yovideogames crew+Benny That aside awesome mod fitting for our road warrior
Dangit Max. You make me want to buy this one. I bought the vanilla version on PS4 but didn't play too long. May try to main Vera and pick up Gran again.
with vanilla you mean the first game? i spent so much on that game and regret it, this one (you can always try the free version on ps4-5) for some reason is so much better
Nothing to do with the game but was watching Max's latest stream and a certain individual showed up in the chat that 6arakin loser he's someone who dosen't need to be on Max's streams we don't need his toxicness there and sure as hell he needs to stay away from granblue or tekken.
Thank you, Max, for getting me into this fighting game rabbit hole, I'm having a lot of fun playing Gran and lancelot in this game
Fighting game dev: Any questions?
Max: Does it come in red?
I don't know what it is but I've been enjoying GBFVSR a lot more than the first game.
Netcode
And just more mechanics to play with
It's a better game.
What they said

Being a long time GBF fan, it's just awesome for me to see people play the characters and do cool sh&% 😁
I agree with this so much! Awesome to see

I saw some other comment saying something similar and i agree 100%, its really fun to see
We need him to play the rpg story mode haha. Maximum impact

30:01 is this music from the PS1 Street Fighter EX Plus Alpha, i believe it was of the character Sakura, this was so nostalgic
This Siegfried need a glasses and a beard
This game is honestly my new favorite fighting game, it could be because it’s new and I’m bored of sf6 but I honestly enjoy this game way more than sf6.
I think just having a larger roster helps a lot. Once SF fills out its roster it'll be more enjoyable.
This game feels and looks waaaay better than SF6. I personally hate the fugly SF6 art style and character design
@@aegisreflector1239I disagree with it being fugly but I can agree with this game being better looking imo
@@LeemVonNelly well tbf this game looks better than practically everything out rn
It's been the opposite for me cuz ngl SF6 still has me try to push on the game even after a bad session

So when we recording the voice lines?
This game is so much fun
Siegfried main here as well! that intro of you pummeling a nier player was top tier. Cant stand fighting that character.
I’ve only played a couple times but it’s a lot of fun. Finally starting to win casual matches. Hoping to jump into ranked soon.
Been using Lancelot
Missed the chance to edit a picture of Yovideogames in the Ultimate attack flashback lol
Now we just need the picture in the super art to be the doods.
Sieg looks very cool in neutral play, all his ranged and mid-range attacks are very dope-looking.
I an't wait to see Lucilius dominate ranked

First....
"It's Siegfried time".
When Max's said that after Sieg-ing on everyone in that scene.
I had chills, bro.
5:40 that's actually not a low damage combo , it's quite the chunky one , but since Ladiva has like i believe the highest health pool in the game at around 18k , it seems low.
she is the grappler, after all
(and funny enough, the version of her most like her VS self in the original game passively has 20% higher health)
how does he do that overhead attack in his auto combo? @ 22:20

Stop calling them anime fighters, just because it's cel-shaded and based on the anime😂😂😂

For odd characters id say anre
love seeing max learn!
Blood. Darkness. Come unto me!
Now to make his sword look Soul Edge...
A good Siegfried player can be a pain to deal with, as much as people complain about Nier I have more trouble with Sieg and Seoux. But as a Ferry main anyone that rushes you down is terrible lol
a further mod should be Siegfried wear glasses and mod the super to the dudes crew (Max+Simmons+Steve+Kenny)
24:10 this is like Guts (Berserk Armor) vs Siegfried... too bad Max didn't show the mod version of Siegfried's SSBA showing the picture of YoVideoGames in the short flashback scene...🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I love this color mod! I even saw a Miku themed color mod for Zeta on Twitter
You've opened my eyes to Segfried
Max should play Relink when it releases. It's basically Granblue Monster Hunter
Man every time I watch one of these it makes me want to play more, I just wish my game wasn't bugging out on the connection. Can't rematch people which really hampers the enjoyment of it.
So when are you going to start the ff16 dlc Max?
Now these are some great matches
I'm prolly gonna get this game when I get home these combos are way too cool
I feel like the mod needs to replace the image of GB Siegfriend's friends during his SSBA with SC Siegfried's
I guess you could say the last battle was... FATE.
If you know, you know!
Next up is to mod Sieg's sword as the Soul Calibur
I do wonder if he's seen (or will see) the mod that replaces the memory flash in Siegfried's super to a screencap of YoVideogames.
It'd be so funny if he shadowdrops the fact he installed it on another stream.
They should add big band as a guest character
Ay, now we're in the S rank vods.

I think this game suits both styles tbh so you can't go wrong with both.
Really cool looking mod i have to say!
only if he can mod that picture in siegfried's ultimate into benny or the yovideogame doods
idk if he already said but is he using mnk or controller
Ive fallen in love with this guy. First FG I've played intensely since SSBU (if that counts. If not, SC 2).
That mirror match was pretty hype lol
I’m enjoying Granblue more than Guilty Gear… 😬

Some one give this Sieg a beard and glasses, also replace the picture of the bros from the super with everyone at YoVideogames
Welp as an aspiring Cag player i will be stealing that cags combos
Damn bro really likes this game way more than strive.
…It’s just better tbh.
this game improved a lot from the older game. strive improved too last season, but siegfried is just soo good
Now mod in Siegfried from SoulCalibur
Stupid Anti Nier tech
If you play Lowain and do any of his installs Nier's SSBA just doesnt work as the hit after the counter is technically a hit grab.
Can someone help me out cause I swear people mash thru everything and I just wanna know do I have to respect it

This should be on Xbox also
only dumbass hoping for eastern stuff on xbox
damn max
Wtf man, was this guy in the first GBV?
Blonde Siegfried looks so cool. 😎
I love you vids max
Siegfried is such a stupid easy character. No wonder he's top-tier.

i can play flawless from europe to america. 200 ping but very fluid still
I wanna play this so bad but…. I have a series X…. 🤦🏿♂️😩
Damn, that Siegfried player must have played against 1,700 scrubs. Max figured his ass out quick! 😂
Wdym? He played incredibly well and he was better at using Sieg's whole kit, but Max is a Downloading God.
@maximilian dude, Ladvia is a lady, everyone in game and Gacha players use she/her for Ladiva. Might be an unknown fact for non-Gacha players tho.
Max please try DNF Duel that game is so so good
Day 77 of asking Max to do Goenitz boss rush
I appreciate all gameplay from max I just wish he played some of the female characters sometimes lol. Cagliostro is mad fun
Just shut the fuck up. He will play who he wants to play.
You must be new to his channel, he never plays girls.
