Guilty Gear -Strive- (2021): When Do You Get Good?

Pow! Bang! Bop! This week we're FIGHTING! Or, well, we're talking about the potential of fighting, but really we're mostly commiserating about the state of Guilty Gear's story mode. Fighting games are hard and have a high barrier for entry, which is why we basically dance around the idea of it for an hour before throwing in the towel. If any sickos really wanna talk to Feather about fighting games though, you know where to find her.    in this episode: lets rock, fighting games, feather blaming the beasts, divekick, training dojo, gary's glossary, subspace emissary, shoutouts to loading, feather and gary's wild ride, story mode problems, emotional cruft, discount paramore, rushdown characters, future sickos, roasting lunchables   ~shoutouts zone~ feather put together a bunch of shit that never came up in the episode but here they are cause i'm nice: Why Button Mashing Doesn't Work  Everything You need to Know About Ramlethal Pressure  The Entire Guilty Gear Story in 14 Minutes  Necessary Discrepancy (Ramlethal Theme)    And the one actually mentioned in the episode: Guilty Gear Strive Every Faust Overdrive Reaction    ~~~ Our theme music is Glass Half Full by the incredible Cliff, you can find him on Bandcamp!
