Good stuff. Some assorted thoughts:
- Train stage looks amazing.
- I still find it hard to believe the characters are 3D models. That's how good they look.
- Also surprised at the pace development is going. I'd wager they were relatively well ahead when the announcement happened.
- I see lot's of new animations in Faust's repertoire. He was my first main in the series and I might go back to my GGX roots.
- Just noticed Faust's item throw is slower but it seems bomb and poison vial have larger areas of effect.
Slightly off-topic but there's something I've kinda always mulled about: what's the "community stance" on EX characters?
I'll assume they're automatically disbanded from competitive play but is their use shunned even at a casual level? I admit they're one of my favorite things in the series given that many let us use the characters in a considerably different manner, with exclusive special moves and supers. By AC+, I even favor some EX versions over the standard, chiefly Baiken because that QCB+HS somersault slash is just too much fun.
Making the bridge to Xrd - would you like to see EX characters return or do you think it would just be a waste of resources?
