Not to mention that two new characters are already confirmed as DLC long before the release date (da heck ?) At the end of the day, it's just a fast money consumer crap made by greedy Arc System.

    While other fighting games gradually sink into boring schemes, Guilty Gear still swims against the tide, offering an original, very complex but enjoyable combat system. [09/2016, p.51]

    As a fighting game fan, having new systems to learn has been great fun and the design of the characters and the world is instantly enjoyable if you like Japanese fighting games and/or anime.
