FunFact: Before the devs got the permission to use BlazBlue's name and characters... It was an original game called "Chaos Effect: Welcome to the New World" (You can thank Ryn for finding that)
Just little FYI, Jin was just teased on their twitter for the next upcoming character. I for one would like to see Hazama added because Ouroboros flying across levels sounds fun.
*"THEY MADE A VISUAL NOVEL JUST ABOUT ES"* Uhhh... other way around, chief. They brought Es over from said visual novel over to the main games. But Entropy Effect (and it's mobile predecessor, Revolution Reburning) comes off to me as BB's answer to Guilty Gear Judgement & Dust Strikers, perhaps even a hybrid of the two.
I'd like to note, before the update that released Es into the game (yes, she was added post-release in a free update), entropy ONLY gave negative debuffs, which NEVER expired. The positive bonus was added because there wasn't any reason not to lower your entropy at one point besides a few skills on the mind training that give credits based on your entropy level.
Actually there was a reason, that is from the shop you got ability which gave you in-game currency for carrying higher entropy which let you have more level ups. But I do still prefer new system, it is more fun to interact with. Also Es was not added post-release in a new update, as the game is in Early Access and not officially released by technicality - they are still working on it
@@matmil5 For reference, the mind training is what I was referring to as the in-game currency farming. Still though, especially when starting out, this gave nothing but drawbacks which was my point :)
His dash is unique, where it is slow, but deals damage and has armour instead of invulnerability. Potentials can extend his dash, give him full invulnerability and as you mentioned trippled dash, as well as grab, combo flow into attack and even blink-dash attack too
Sounds promising, I hope the devs are able to stick with it. I remember getting in on Dead Cells while it was still in early access and having essentially one path, but they've made it absolutely massive over time with continued support. There's plenty of design space for each character from BB, so that at least is easy content.
I'm surprised you mentioned Naoto when he's a spinoff character in of himself. He's the same as Es, spinoffs being guests, not as simple as "They made a spinoff VN about Es!"
I legit wonder if easier to get the rights to use the blazblue name and characters, instead of just designing their own characters. However considering the fact that these sprites are literally the same as the ones in the og blazblue, just edited to be effected by lighting and fx. However, it would be infinitely faster then making original sprites from nothing and trying to reach the same level of polish. In other words, Tao should already be finished,
There a big correction I want to make bbtag did not underperform, in fact it perform very well for the first year…. For arc system works at the time when most of their games were constantly underperforming.
Have him turn everyone into a crater of course. Edit: forgot to mention that Potemkin was playable in Judgement. They can totally make a grappler exist in a beat em up sense.
The worst thing about this is that since Mori left they can't really, feasibly make a new BB. So they only really can realistically do most likely noncanon spin-offs.
@@V2ULTRAKillin light of that it makes a ton of sense why arcsys licensed the characters out to this company. they weren't doing anything with them so may as well
'just'?? They play 100% differently. If the story didn't tell you they were the same individual you would've never known. That's how different they are.
"THIS is what a Blazblue samurai looks like!" *Shows Hakumen, the literal armor/body of the god of destruction.* Uhhhhhhhh, I don't think every enemy should be THE BODY OF A GOD.
Havent played this game since release, it seems they swapped elevator lady for floating mind as the penultimate boss which is interesting. Especially since one of them i got stuck on and the other is one of the first boss challenges
Idk how it wasn't mentioned but a huge factor into blazblues future is that omori the creator is no longer with BlazBlue so its very unlikely they will do it again and if they do it would probably struggle to capture the spirit of the franchise.
BB is what made me a competitive FG player but I enjoy this game for what it is. I love Metroidvanias and I love FGs and a combination of the two is neat. It's rare to have a 2D scroller have as much combat depth as this one. The story in this game is uninteresting and almost non-existent but I ultimately play *games* for the gameplay/combat mechanics, not the story. This is not much different than gacha games having collab characters and them being there solely for gameplay purposes. I'm used to it, it's fine, but I can see why people are peeved.
Yet to play it, but I can see why people say it's not like BlazBlue. My biggest issue is just how many unnecessary effects there are, Ragna's especially feel unneeded except for Black Onslaught effects.
Are there actually any other rogue-lites like this out there? In this 2D side scrolling kinda style with combo based, fighting game adjacent gameplay. I really like this games approach of playing defined characters with unique move sets that you have to unlock piece meal throughout the run, and I can't really think of anything quite like it. Closest I can think of are Dead Cells and Hades, but those are quite simplistic in comparison, at least in term of combat.
I honestly really like EE. Its probably because i just froget to use hp mixtures but i hvent even beaten the game yet and i think i have waaaaay more than 8 hrs.
Honeslty I'm glad that the roster is the way it is beacuse they pulled some wierd ass characters you would never see otherwise (I mean we got Kokonoe before Jin) and beside the roster still contains very popular characters both for lore and gameplay (Hibiki for exemple is one of the most played characters in CF especially among beginers, and Kokonoe is super popular for her story relevance and design).
This game made me depressed because I realized we would never get a main series BlazBlue game again... They have resorted to selling the rights to a Chinese company that was just going to glue and duct tape the characters into their already work in progress rogue lite, it's just too sad since BlazBlue was my first fighting game and I wish the franchise would make a return now when the genre is more alive than ever
Never say never when it comes to video games. There won't be a new Blazblue anytime soon, but never? I don't think so. Come backs happen. there was a new Guilty Gear after years, a new Mega Man after years of nothing, Kof history is basically a long string of surviving and coming back from the dead after every buyout and bankruptcy. There is a sequel to Garo coming up after decades. A new Crash Bandicoot... Even Bubsy got a shot at a return! If anything, while this is only BB in name and characters, the fact ArcSys was okay with that does mean they at least aren't trying to pretend the serie doesn't exist. Now it's a matter of hoping it won't take 20 years.
@euronymous_t its been 8 years since the last main series blazblue game my man, if 8 years is too early for you then you'd be the only one... I think now is the proper time to have some concerns for the future of the franchise
Literally no character in the history of fighting games has a cooler and more satisfying Izuna Drop than Hibiki. Also, AoT cute edgy shadow ninja boy. Beginner friendly, easy to play and understand, cool shadow moves. He appeals to literally every demographic that exists and plays anime games. If Riot ever puts Zed in Project L, i'm begging them to basically just copy paste Hibiki because it's a perfect execution of the concept that requires almost zero adjustment to work.
He didn't complain though?? The only part he didn't like was the story + the fact it doesn't feel like it was made with Blazblue in mind at all. Pretty sure he said he enjoyed the gameplay and that it was fun
@@jotarokujo9644 bro complained the entire fucking video. "waah it's too easy waah it's not a mainline fg from the retired series creator waah it's a slap in the face waah you can get risk of rain or hades instead for the price"
well even though this won't make sense to people who don't have a PHD in Literature Hakumen is Jin from the future who wants to kill Ragna to save the future timeline
I tried to play this game back when it released and kept getting trapped in a room where you choose between two "challenges", it was so frustrating that I just quit and refunded the game.
Hibik is literally the best and most balanced character in the game. Ive beat it with every character(execept Ragna) on the highest difficulty and Hibiki has everything(speed, damage range, synergy) you could need in his kit. Ragna is is hard af to play for beginners. Kokonoe is probably broken and needs to be nerfed
This video just told me "This is not Blazblue" when I came here to know If it worth it or not for someone that is interested in the series after trying one of the main game series.
I've never liked how the bosses have a very VERY basic boss theme, hell, the final boss has a regular boss theme. Arakune has a regular boss theme. The new original characters have regular boss themes. Can't wait for modding to save yet another game.
Something that drives me kinda nuts about this game is the desktop icon. *It's literally just a mugshot of Naoto!* Yet, as of the time I'm typing this, he's seen nowhere in the game. The same was true for Jin, who showed up in the trailers before eventually being added. I still have hope for him
Yeah as of now it definitely feels like blazblue is in it’s guilty gear overature phase, and I’m not sure how long it’s gunna stay like this. Blazblue centralfiction was a perfect end to the series. Tying up all the stories loose ends and having an amazing conclusion. In an ideal world it should’ve ended there. There’s no point in the IP ending up as just background assets in a random rougelike.
I love blazblue as a series. I would not have bought, played, and enjoyed entropy effect if it wasnt titled as a blazblue game. I loved this shit, wish they do it again for a different genre, because theres no way in hell we get another blazblue fighting game.
honestly guilty gear had no right to get the chance to be revive, it was just because its arcsys' favorite child, blazblue at least was consistently lucrative, enough anyway also, while they both are similar games, since BB is essentially an iteration of GG, they tured to be very distinct games in the end, so i dont see the "we dont know what to do with bb" as a valid excuse, thats nintendo talk, and i dont take the BB creator leaving as an excuse as well, its not like he made the world and games by himself, taking this game as it is, i will say they just dont care and until i see a new blazblue and not a Blazblue STRIVE i will not change my mind
I don't think that the major changes is bad for any series, not only bb or gg, but man, rogue like? Without bb characters and Blazblue in the title it is just ordinary game, this game is not Blazblue that I love BBtag really did that better bruh
I know this might be wishful thinking but I do hope after Guilty Gear Strive finishes with a final DLC pack, I would love to see a crossover game with both Blazblue and Guilty Gear. Can be a way to somewhat revive Blazblue but also guide the future of the series though it has to happen after Guilty Gear Strive finishes, not during it's run.
@@Ramsey276one Azure Gear, Guilty Grimoire… BLAZING! That’s all the crossover names I got that isn’t just Blazblue X Guilty Gear or Guilty Gear X Blazblue

@@Ramsey276one I think the most screwed up about them having a crossover is the fact that Aria and Saya have so much parallels with each other in terms of importance of the two series.
Lots of your criticism seems to be that it isnt a fighting game and yes it isnt. Its an action roguelite. And probably one of the best out there rn. Its job is to get people whove never played blazblue interested in the franchise. And thats working for me, im already reading u plore on the characters. But no, its not the next fighting game in your series if thats what you were looking for
I think you call something like this a doujin, a fan game, that may or may not contain much from original. Anyway, the game is fun, though, I wish there was SHT, (Susanoo, Hazama, Terumi) Naoto and Kagura as playables. I also was really surprised that they added Hibiki, but not Jin. Like litteraly, Hibiki is some guy that playable in CF, and here's Jin, the cause of Ragna's hand becoming Black Beast, Hakumen host, Jin's also almost the second MC, and yet, we got some Hibiki. (And yes, I know that Jin is in cast now, he wasn't there before)
I think the game is really fun actually. The way moves of characters are incorporated as well feels creative and amount of playstyles is impressive depending on what Potentials you get and what Level Up skills you get and the further you go the more you unlock. It is a damn good roguelite, even as an Open Beta and Developers first venture into the genre (if I am correct) with great amount of polish, style and uniqueness. What it takes from Blazblue it uses well and project can stand on its own legs. And let's not forget that one series of "Blazblue" is literally visual novels that have almost nothing to do with main series as well until certain plot points are revealed, which possibly will be the case for Full game release as well - we do not know yet, as again, it is an Open Beta.
Is like dead cells but with less content, i hope they add a lot of characters, because Rogue lite are repetitive and adding new perks or weapons is the way to make every run unique, in dead cells there like a lot of ways to arrive the final stage, more than a hundred weapons and their legendary versión... If they are going to be less characters they should do like Hades and make a lot of perks that are gonna affect not only your dps or if u burn... they have yo change how hour Gameplay is going to be, if a perk is better for a specific movement u are gonna use more that. Idk if explained I think i explained well but im not a good english speaker and my keyboard sometimes change some words😂
They made the game easier with patches, yes. The game was very hard before the patches. But calm down dude, the game is early access and they already confirmed 2 free dlcs characters for this year (Taokaka and Jin) and more characters for next year. This game has a lot to grow yet and devs are taking good care of it tbh. The story is not the best but it isn't finished yet. Just give time for the game!
FunFact: Before the devs got the permission to use BlazBlue's name and characters... It was an original game called "Chaos Effect: Welcome to the New World" (You can thank Ryn for finding that)

I know this might be wishful thinking but I do hope after Guilty Gear Strive finishes with a final DLC pack, I would love to see a crossover game with both Blazblue and Guilty Gear. Can be a way to somewhat revive Blazblue but also guide the future of the series though it has to happen after Guilty Gear Strive finishes, not during it's run.
Blue Gear BLAZING
@@Ramsey276one Azure Gear, Guilty Grimoire… BLAZING! That’s all the crossover names I got that isn’t just Blazblue X Guilty Gear or Guilty Gear X Blazblue
@@MetaKnuxXbeats Good one!
Guilty Grimoire
Sol: Whaddya do this time catboy?!
Asuka: I just woke up, Frederick, what-- did Aria get a pet??
Jubei: Go ahead, ONE MORE JO--
Jack-O: Another one? He's cuter than her... [PETS JUBEI]
Jubei: Don't let my wife see you doing this... wait, you know Tao?
Sol & Asuka: WIFE?!
Tao: Cat person!
Kokonoe: Father...
Sol & Asuka: FATHER?!
Kokonoe: TAGER...Drop In!
@@Ramsey276one I think the most screwed up about them having a crossover is the fact that Aria and Saya have so much parallels with each other in terms of importance of the two series.
@@MetaKnuxXbeats ... oh WOW

Dont diss Hibiki! He Is one of the most popular!
Lots of your criticism seems to be that it isnt a fighting game and yes it isnt. Its an action roguelite. And probably one of the best out there rn. Its job is to get people whove never played blazblue interested in the franchise. And thats working for me, im already reading u plore on the characters. But no, its not the next fighting game in your series if thats what you were looking for
Just like in Cross tag battle, No Taokaka? No buy!
Well I got some good news for you
@@ethanliao2769 please, enlight me!
Huh, didn't know Dead Cells did a collab with BlazBlue
8:05 you can add oaf instead of stupid
I don't know about that hibiki bit tbh, he is literally top 3 in popularity, people love this Levi Ackerman bootleg mf, and i am people
I think you call something like this a doujin, a fan game, that may or may not contain much from original.
Anyway, the game is fun, though, I wish there was SHT, (Susanoo, Hazama, Terumi) Naoto and Kagura as playables.
I also was really surprised that they added Hibiki, but not Jin. Like litteraly, Hibiki is some guy that playable in CF, and here's Jin, the cause of Ragna's hand becoming Black Beast, Hakumen host, Jin's also almost the second MC, and yet, we got some Hibiki. (And yes, I know that Jin is in cast now, he wasn't there before)
I think the game is really fun actually. The way moves of characters are incorporated as well feels creative and amount of playstyles is impressive depending on what Potentials you get and what Level Up skills you get and the further you go the more you unlock. It is a damn good roguelite, even as an Open Beta and Developers first venture into the genre (if I am correct) with great amount of polish, style and uniqueness. What it takes from Blazblue it uses well and project can stand on its own legs.
And let's not forget that one series of "Blazblue" is literally visual novels that have almost nothing to do with main series as well until certain plot points are revealed, which possibly will be the case for Full game release as well - we do not know yet, as again, it is an Open Beta.
2:09 Hakuman is Jin...kinda.
timelines bullshit.
13:00 "i love her but she is broken...so please buff her more"-best quotes.
Strong it's not boots on the ground cod vibe
Is like dead cells but with less content, i hope they add a lot of characters, because Rogue lite are repetitive and adding new perks or weapons is the way to make every run unique, in dead cells there like a lot of ways to arrive the final stage, more than a hundred weapons and their legendary versión... If they are going to be less characters they should do like Hades and make a lot of perks that are gonna affect not only your dps or if u burn... they have yo change how hour Gameplay is going to be, if a perk is better for a specific movement u are gonna use more that. Idk if explained
I think i explained well but im not a good english speaker and my keyboard sometimes change some words😂
Keeping entropy effects permanent and allowing less buffs would balance the game a lot more
TAGER MENTIONED!!! TAGER MAINS STAY WINNING!!!!!!!!!
So it’s like dead cells and hades but with its own spice 💯💯🔥🔥but mostly dead cells💀
…what?
And how contact?
What is this game? Can I still slowly stomp towards enemies and throw their ass with science?
Nope, there's no Terumi...
But there's a FREAKING HIBIKI.
Jin is now playable, what do you think about him?
I was so dissapointed after playing it for a couple of hours
Guilty Gear Strive: Guilty Gear In Name Only
People said the same thing about Street Fighter 3rd Strike
Where is Taokaka
2:40 cmon man hibiki fans need all the attention we can get, he deserves this more than es does at least
True
He's probably upset that some almost npc guy made in game earlier than second mc.
Sorry for being 40 secs late 😢
Only Ragna and Hakumen? Disappointing, given how many cool dudes are in Blazblue.
They made the game easier with patches, yes. The game was very hard before the patches. But calm down dude, the game is early access and they already confirmed 2 free dlcs characters for this year (Taokaka and Jin) and more characters for next year. This game has a lot to grow yet and devs are taking good care of it tbh. The story is not the best but it isn't finished yet. Just give time for the game!
Free dlc for an early access title 🙃
@@KarmaSpaz12and? It's just a convoluted way of saying "new character"
@@D.Ku_03what happened to the word update
@ayopeep I mean, if we're arguing semantics, Dlc just means downloadable content. A update that is downloaded is a technically DLC.
@@emperormegaman3856 although in this context, they are used to describe two different things
Yeah, it seems like a decent game, just not like a blazBlue game.
ayo chill with the Hibiki slander 😅
