Guilty Gear Strive

Personally, I want Gabriel to be one of the new characters. Story pits him as strong as Slayer, and the game is in need of more characters that aren't 4 star difficulty Balance characters. That being said, I hope Slayer comes out too.

I remember there being leaks that confirmed Slayer's release. You think he's coming to Season 2?
 
Color me shocked, I didn't think they'd touch Bridget with current year nonsense.

It's a shame we won't get him looking like this.

They'll just paint Bridget as trans instead of just a crossdresser. And it happens with similar characters Every. Fucking. Time.
Yup, the localizers and fans will be insufferable. Didn't this already happen to Testament?
 
They made Bridget trans, theres already a bunch of the usual orbiters gushing about it on twitter lol

Im waiting for the eventual slipups and slapfights to pop up around it, ive already seen one or two prominent youtubers go "wait whut, that wasnt the lore"

Gonna be interesting how the JPN dub handled it, if they changed it completely then wew

Also curious on if anyone will care by the time slayer comes out too, Bridget's OST is another miss like Testament's theme for me so far smh

Another character who's whole lore did a 180.
I'm not knowledgable about GG lore, but isn't Bridget's backstory basically "he was raised as a girl without his consent because of some shit with only having 1 son and 1 daughter"? If that lore is still consistent then isn't that just a textbook example of grooming from a very young age being successful and, in this context, celebrated?

Whether you're for or against all the trans stuff, you can't deny this is a pretty fucking stupid move. In their attempt to go "omg trans character!" they actually ended up creating a character who practically embodies what their opponents believe in.
