    The fighting system of Guilty Gear Strive requires tactics and precision, and the solid soundtrack full of roaring guitars supports the epic battles. What we liked most about this fine fighting game is the distinctive graphic style of the cutscenes that is carried through into the game, making you feel as if you are playing the lead role in a great anime.

    For new players of 1v1 fighting games, this is the one to pick. With a command input system that’s slightly easier to grasp than many of its contemporaries and a brilliant visual style, Guilty Gear Strive is a solid first foray into the genre. You’ll still need patience though. If you’re desperate to get good, this game will allow you to, but if you’re looking for a super casual experience, Strive still falls into the same pitfalls as other games of its type.

    Отличный файтинг. + Визуал (да, аниме). Арки славятся своим визуальным стилем, они его отработали на предыдущих Гирах, GBV и DBZ. Ярко, сочноОтличный файтинг. + Визуал (да, аниме). Арки славятся своим визуальным стилем, они его отработали на предыдущих Гирах, GBV и DBZ. Ярко, сочно и стильно.
    + Боевая система. "О нет, это не гилти гир, тут всё так медленно, нельзя делать 40+ комбо плак-плак" Не слушайте этих нытиков. Им подавай старую игру в новой обёртке и тогда они будут ныть, что ничего не изменилось.
    Бои динамичны за счёт увеличенного урона, базу упростили, однако игра не потеряла глубины: 4 вида отмены анимации позволяют творить самые безумные комбинации, бойцы все уникальны, а ввод также требователен к таймингам.
    + ЛОР. В кои-то веки теперь можно разобраться в том, что творится в этом мире. Добавили глоссарий, связи персонажей и конечно похорошевшую сюжетку (которая мультик на несколько часов).
    + Обучение. Режим миссий научит всем основам, не переживайте.
    - Режим аркады без роликов, просто пара диалогов в награду за игру, meh.
    - В конце сюжетки без поллитры не разобраться.
    Нормальное лобби, хватит ныть :)

    Любителям файтингов нельзя проходить мимо, иначе вы всего лишь любители.    … Full Review »

    I am totally obsessed with this game and will likely continue to be obsessed for months, if not years. I've always wanted to get into fightingI am totally obsessed with this game and will likely continue to be obsessed for months, if not years. I've always wanted to get into fighting games, in the past I dabbled casually in Street Fighter IV and V, Skullgirls, Dragon Ball Fighterz, and Granblue Fantasy, but I never quite got in at the right time to be able to learn them properly. Fighting games are really strengthened by the complexity they allow in competitive play, but this complexity can also feel like an insurmountable obstacle to an unexperienced player, particularly a complete newbie. Strive refines the format down to the essentials, which is not to say it's easy, far from it, just the quantity of information required to be learned by the player to actually engage with the game has been lessened dramatically. I got in on day one of the pre-release, and have been steadily learning and growing as the game itself grows and develops, and I can easily say it was one of the best gaming decisions I ever made. I'm now hopelessly enthralled in the fighting game community, and knowing all that I know now, I'm confident in branching out into other titles as they release. Absolutely recommend this title to anyone like me, who has always been interested but never felt truly capable of breaching this complex yet rewarding genre.… Full Review »
