Y’know if Guilty Gear, for whatever reason, decided to suddenly change genres (again), I wouldn’t mind seeing the series take a stab at being a Hack n Slash.

And I mean a proper hack n slash not that RTS/MOBA bullshit we got in Overture.

#that said what TYPE of hack n slash is up for debate #I would hate for it to be a God of War clone(because they suck) or a Musou type game(they suck even more)#a Bayonetta clone while fun wouldn’t be…. idk weighty enough?#like Platinum Hack n Slashes/Beat em ups aren’t mondo floaty or anything #and the witch time mechanic would make sense here since there could a in universe magical explanation for it #but there’s just SOMETHING about Bayo clones they just ain’t meshing with GG in my head…#on the other side of that coin I don’t think I’d want the game to feel TOO heavy like that Valkyrie Elysium game #piggybacking off of that; not entirely sure I’d want it to be a action RPG either. well I might but depends on who’s making it #guess that leaves the option of it being a Devil May Cry clone #which is surprisingly easy to imagine since Overture already has its own version of DMC’s lock on+directional input thing #however minuscule it is in Overture #plus DMC is probably the only hack n slash I know of that has air dashes and we all know Guilty Gear codified that shit in fighters so #it fits even better #guess let Itsuno give it a try #matter of fact didn’t Hideaki Itsuno help make the combat for that new Final Fantasy game? how was that?#a taste of that might help “fortify” my decision #or make me backtrack on it #in any event: Guilty Gear hack n slash wen Ishiwatari?#guilty gear #guilty gear 2 overture #devil may cry #platinum games #hack n slash #beat em up #fighting games #arc system works
