Could Rising Save Granblue Fantasy Versus?

[@LaxerShadow]

This game is quite content rich compared to other fighting games currently. Combining all the elements together it will have: for fighting game: campaign mode, probably arcade/survival mode, rollback AND crossplay, a big roaster of 28 characters at launch, it will have fall guys like game and a place to shitpost for full price and it will have free to play part where you can try out 4 characters, a little bit of single player campaign and you get full fall guys like game mode. It's crazy to think about that you get a fighting game to try out and a fall guys like game FOR FREE. I hope this game gets some success that I think it deserves.

@@JuIianRockEvery remastered fighting game is hopefully good when there’s a R in it. Whether it’s Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure All Star Battle R, KOF Maximum Impact: Regulation “A”, the letter R is what makes or breaks a remake fighting game. If there’s a Blazblue Cross Tag Battle R/Blazblue Cross Tag Battle Regulation “C”/Blazblue Cross Tag Battle Rising, pray God makes it good. If there’s a Marvel vs. Capcom Infinite R/Marvel vs. Capcom Regulation “4”/Marvel vs Capcom 4: Rising, pray Disney or Capcom don’t get greedy and drive Mahvel all the way to hell. If there’s a Baki: Fighting FuRy game, pray God helps it survive.

[@limitedlistener6460]

5:00 You can opt out of dash normals by simply letting go of forward before pressing the button.

[@MokonaModokiES]

yeah its just like in Under night. So gekko should keep that noted for the under night beta too. Specially if he plays Akatsuki that commonly does microdashes

[@ggsilost]

dash button also allows you to do them without triggering dash attack

[@Cressx]

I have dash bound to a button. No need to hold forward unless you want to.

[@spicyluvsyou]

It has everything that a fighting game needs to do well. It has fall guys mode too. Mario guys mode was dope.

[@tronixchl2004]

When the first game came out, i bought it and really wanted to play.... But it runned like shit on my pc.... Testing the rising beta. IT. RUNS. PERFECTLY, THEY FINALLY OPTIMIZED IT FOR POTATO PC'S BEST FUCKING GAME EVER PD: still, i hope someone makes a Potato Pc mod (shoutouts to FGC Draft, thanks to him i could play GG Strive for 2 years with no performance issues), then even more ppl can play it.

[@Vikaryous21]

I don't think it's gonna be a breakout hit but I do think it'll hold a decent audience for awhile. GBVS was kept afloat despite releasing into COVID without rollback through a very dedicated playerbase, and most of those people I play/talk with are very happy. Factoring in new blood, especially with a free version, it should do just fine.

[@GdGsflame]

I think more fighting games need to introduce their version of a miiverse, this is what the FGC has been missing.

I only got the original game to play the funi catboys And when the new one comes out I’ll be playing the sniper catboy Or the knife catboy I think you can tell there’s a bit of a preference

If I remember correctly, the technical input now does 10% more damage but only if you hit the enemy from neutral.

[@ryomathekillers7421]

supers (even raw) and easy inputs from combos do the same amount of damage, but yeah raw inputs do 10% more damage usually

[@zeroknight2718]

Yep, I just tested this in training mode and you are correct.

[@eduardoserpa1682]

Most of all, I'm really happy they're experimenting with the F2P entry point. I fully expected DNF to do that, and it's been a long time coming since KI.

I cannot believe the Siegfried (Soul Calibur) lookalike described as "suffering builds character" is actually also named Siegfried. It turned my brain into sludge for a second before I realized it was a funny coincidence.

-To do Ultimate Skills with easy specials, it's just the easy special button, plus Unique, and the direction. Just like doing a hard uses medium and an EX uses hard attack plus Unique and the direction. -Metered abilities that were added later in the original but removed from this were an invincible backdash for 50% meter, a combo linking (or safe on block from neutral) dash attack for 50% meter (which is now the animation for the follow up to the guard break), and the Overdrive mode that gave you a bunch of effects like extra damage, chip on everything, chip immunity, and no cooldown penalty for easy specials. -Technical commands, only when not used in combos, gives 10% bonus damage. -Charlotta is Honda, not Blanka, with a Gouki flip. -The guestbook isn't new to this version. -DoA5 and DoA6 did free versions with rotating characters that you could buy ala carte.

[@rogeras5966]

Out of jokes this actually feels like something that will make the game more successful, the rotating characters like in Killer Instinct 2013 (But there you don't get Jago all the time wtf), the Casual modes like Story Mode and Fall Guys mode, and a social Media function, and simple specials, It all looks promising from a marketing point of view.

[@GentlemanMudkip]

Honestly, theres huge props to Cygames. They know their brands really well. Im excited for rising and who else they may hadd in the future, and it makes the wait for Relink much more bearable

[@Maxler5795]

5:45 literally the same but you also press the U button. Same applies to Skybound art and Super skybound art. Also, on the dashing normals, you can actually avoid doing them if you use the dash macro to dash, and if you hold forward while using it, you can then use the dashing normals

[@Maxler5795]

i play narmaya not to make johnny jokes, but to blast BURY THE LIGHT DEEP WITHIN when i get the ball rolling.

[@lemonsquishy197]

Doing technical input instead of simple may not lower CD anymore but the same move will do more dmg, I saw the values in training mode

[@TheOblomoff]

There were 3 full lobbies yesterday, and 4th was a 76/100. Even if a fraction of current test players will remain for full release - it'll be great.

[@despicableree58]

Regarding the dash-attacks. Iirc, using the dash button and a normal made the normal come out. But manual dash would always get the dash-attack out due to holding forward.

[@nelomalkevain4129]

3:34 I am so glad to be a Vaseraga player man, he is so much fun to play in this beta... 8:31 at the same time I also sometime want to forget I'm a Yuel main at heart...

[@jaeaik]

I think Rising might be the game that Cygames had envisioned when first making versus to begin with, the new mechanics seemingly fit well and smooth, but the game is still easy to pick up and play. I don't see this game toppling the big three, Street Fighter/tekken/MK, but I can see this game being like Undernight where the fanbase stays loyal to the game, and at the end of the day I think thats the most important thing, a loyal but steady fanbase.

[@Xenozillex]

it isnt that deep of a game to have that commitment.

[@kshaunishshaik6394]

the simple inputs do 10% less damage for those wondering

[@Vikaryous21]

More specifically technical inputs do 10% bonus damage in neutral; Canceling into them won't give you the bonus, but links work

[@AH-uz3fx]

That message board mode is the true sequel to Miiverse we've all been longing for since the Wii U days

[@AnnCatsanndra]

Yeah man like, I'm terrible at these games but I got the original GBFV on sale and had so many small but annoying weird problems like screen-tearing and weird visual effects and couldn't get online matches. During the open beta for GBFVR I was able to get matches pretty quick in Casual Match queue AND was able to hop into Grand Bruise when I got tired of a losing streak and managed to get some wins over there. I don't know if I'd GRIND on this, but I can definitely see myself booting it up on a restless weekend when I wanna toss some sheep then turn into an owl and steal gold. Like just, I've had zero problems with just installing the open beta, running it, and hopping into whatever mode seemed neat.

4:03 heavy fucking sword go brrrrr

[@kuzunohaxiv7912]

I found the original grand blue so bad that didn't even care about rising but I tried the beta on a whim and changed my mind completely they did a complete 180 and the game feels good now and it's actually fun not to mention I can actually play online

[@fishswat1]

If you wanna dash in but don't use the dash attack, you can let go of the forward input before pressing the normal. The dash attack input is actually forward + L/M/H during the dash, so if you let go the dash attack won't come out. Technical/motion input gives you 10% extra dmg (however, only if you do them in neutral. No dmg bonus if the special is cancelled into)

[@HateSonneillon]

iirc they said that simple inputs do 10% less damage than motion inputs.

[@Boobusmcscoobus]

8:40 it’s good to know shitposts are now canon to granblue

[@meatpuppyvt]

probably someone already mentioned it but here it is anyway the only difference that we know between simple and technical inpts in rising is: techinical = 10% more damage simple = :D and im here for it ultimates in Simple inputs are just Skill + Direction(if appliable) + Unique also 50% WIN RATE IN FALL GUYS MODE BABY LETS GOOO also in case u dont know since u mentioned Killer instinct and DOA6 both have a free version idk if they are the same as GBVSR tho

[@hoonty4890]

The technical inputs should do more damage, but for grand bruise bomb minigame I actually prefer to get hit by the bombs to get launched into the air to more safely land back rather than risk getting knocked down by other players :3 BROFAM FOREVER LOWAIN

[@enokellernoget]

☝🤓3:01 air dashing in this game is character specific, so you could be.

[@MrRaposaum]

The Fall Guys game shows many stages as a "?" that are not available. This is a clear sign that the full release will have more than just 3 stages and there will be a roulette animation to show players which ones they'll get. Then, over time, I expect them to add more stages.

[@LostKutku]

I'm not gonna lie. at first I wasn't gonna pick it up but it actually looks pretty decent I've never heard of grand blue game before

[@NeroWolf42]

Technical inputs do 10% more damage than simple and that's it, cooldowns are unaffected. Putting it inside a combo has no disadvantage.

[@dragonmaster3030]

I really want to play this and many other fighting games, i especially want to main narmaya here particularly. But i dont feel like spending 500 on another console that can technically do the same shit my current one can. I also hate where PS puts their analog sticks and the d-pad makes it feel weird to do any motion inputs.

[@JJBCrimsonKnight]

A nice thing to add about the Bravery system. You can gain it back and deplete from your opponent with skybound artes. Making them still worth using meter on.

[@Valvadrix]

My biggest problem is that the dash macro only works forward, so my Strive muscle memory has gotten me killed too many times when I tried to backdash and just ran forward instead.

[@realityd9672]

I have to disagree with the idea that you won't be airdashing, As a representative of Vira mains we have only three thing in mind: get install, many plus frames, and lots of crack

[@SgtCanoodle]

i played the beta, there is only one way to play, get one hit in, do your triple auto attack, do a special, maybe do a super, repeat, except for some characters which have counters, there are no real combos, you cant link attacks together, recovery way too fast, most characters are just spamming the same attacks over and over because otherwise the other player is going to spam their optimal loop. with games like strive existing in terms of anime fighters, this game has no chance.

[@daniilikyay4949]

4:50 I'm pretty sure that using the dash macro will never trigger a dash normal, the input 66 is actually required, and that pressing the dash normal after 66 cancels it (you will do a normal normal) Edit: I just tested it for my peace of mind and @diesirae0_ is right, the input isn't necessarily 66 and isn't cancelled by dash macro; all it is is 6X while dashing, I made those assumption because I usually don't hold forward when using dash macro to dash.
