His moves in the previous games were actually very complex with the whole locking the yoyo onto your opponent. The return of the killing machine was able to be used in any location where the yoyo is placed going into the direction of where Bridget is instead of the opponent
The DBFZ problem all over again, where the base cast was made super simple to appeal to FG newcomers, but then as DLC kept coming out, they gradually increased the complexity of those characters, like with Roshi for example. I do feel bad for Xrd Ram fans tho, completely butchered moveset

He was number one requested character in Japan according to ASW surveys.
@@katsutama wow really? I had only read accounts from mainly the American side of the community, and I have seen more disgust at the thought of him “stealing a slot” from other characters.
This news are great, this means that, at least, a big amount of people got a character they’re interested in.
Slayerheads (aka me) BLOWN THE FUCK OUT.
He was definitely my most wanted character. I am ecstatic
I don't know man.
while characters such as dizzy and elphelt are popular, bridget is also a character people asked from day 1.
the thing is, bridget didn't appeared in X3rd, a game where bridget was also requested by players.
and bridget only appeared in XX, so players who never played XX are probably not going to be the ones to request bridget.
but I know someone who actually learned how to play yo-yo just because he liked the character so much.
and I'm pretty sure he's not alone.
Bridget looks very well done!
Not mad at it, but that story mode pt.2 had me so hyped for my boy Sin
3:25 Potemkin crying in the corner.
3:00 one of Vanguard's best moves is now in the hands of a child
Not a child anymore but he is a femboy, depending on if Arcsys keeps his pronouns the same
@@QuantemDeconstructor How is Bridget not a child anymore?
@@RGameCtr if we're assuming he was 13, which is generous to the whole child thing since he's small but not THAT small, when he debuted in XX (year 2180), that would make him 20 when Xrd - Sign - happens, which is before Strive on the timeline, but in the same year
@@QuantemDeconstructor Ahh I see. That's interesting.
"This way"
“Bridget is a well balanced character”
Yeah so is Happy Chaos
Even tho he do be shmoving, good to see Roger also has made a comeback.
That idle animation is adorable
Axl VS "the guy she tells you not to worry about"
No.
Bridget is the guy *he* tells you not to worry about.
Now we wait for our beloved Robo-Ky and Venom
bridget actually looking like an old gg character but in strive. should be interesting for the meta
Bridget is literally axl's little brother and nobody can convince me otherwise
They're both blond
It checks out
Wait isn't axl from the past
Bridget would be axl's grandkid or something
@@Qobp i guess yea
@@Qobp they both use weapons made out of a projectile on a string like appliance
They both have blue eyes
They are both the most cheerful characters in the lore
They both have an overdrive that starts of as a fire wheel and ends with a fire projectile
@@Qobp also theyre both cute as heck
Well thats a good start for the season 2 cant wait to see more
I was expecting muscular Bridget this time around but it's cool to see him back
yeah, he should be older and grown up
lol, his idle stance...arcsys, yall are something else, man. 😊👍
Basically he's no longer the movement monster that he was in XX, but at least a lot of his moves are intact.
I'll take not being timed out by infinite floating.
@@kylekiske_ but it was so fun though 😂
*She
The king is back!
He looks amazing, I want to play him!
IVW BEEN WAITING DIR THIS YOO
Fucking love it! he has the same moves and combos, thank you so much arc system works 😭❤️❤️
Funny how the return of a single character that was absent for around what... 10 years? Makes the game suddenly feels familiar
I love him so much already
