I like his design so much I bought the season pass right away 😄
The same point Max made
I just got to the point Max made, and I'm glad he and I have a similar mindset when it comes to this specific character type in fighting games. I don't necessarily hate the 'acrofatic' gimmick , but I appreciate that ARC System Works wanted to make a genuine bruiser who hits like a dump truck and moves with the speed of a caterpillar with wooden legs.
Basically no more Rufus and Bob characters. More specifically...Rufus. I'm kind of a proponent of characters playing at least somewhat like they look. Its just a huge disconnect for me personally when you got a 4-500 lb fighter moving like they're a 120 lb featherweight.
The fast fat guy characters, bob and rufus are both Sammo Hung rips. Especially bob. Hence the suspenders, bowl cut ish hair and kung fu. also SFV has had a bunch of big bodies like birdie and abagail that had plenty of weight. it isn't 09 anymore.

People always think big heavy characters should be slow. Do you think mike tyson was slow? he was a heavyweight....

I thought this game didnt have gattlingsHe is for all of us.
That should be his Freedom gauge that just automatically builds up over time and when he gets attacked with it full, he activates an install called "Liberation".hello there
Asuka and Happy Chaos look lame as all get out and belong in Blazblue, but Dickinson is legit. You have my axe.
Since it hasn't been mentioned in this thread I'll be posting this here as a reminder:

Guilty Gear Strive removes all references of Uyghur, Tibet, and Taiwan from the Official Backstory (Update: Steam and PlayStation now both censored)
I mean frankly I personally think the existence of international superpowers is inherently a bad thing no matter who that superpower is because it inevitably leads to imperialism no matter who is in charge. Western Imperialism sucks. Chinese Imperialism sucks. If they ever happened African...

Mike Tyson felt like an exception to the rule, especially when you watch footage of him as a 15 year old training. Dude was something else entirely when he had the speed & footwork of a light-weight boxer with the power and endurance of a heavy-weight boxer.
I otherwise agree, as body fat has little bearing on muscle or flexibility. So as long as someone can move effectively, more mass means more powerful strikes when they hit you. Linebackers in American Football are an example of this.
I'm hopeful that they'll show off a movelist video before then.
Yeah there's a good chance. And even if not, it'll soon be a non-issue. But right now I'm jealous of those detailled Sakurai videos haha.
Just woke up. Trailer was at 3am here and I couldn't stay up for that.
First up: FUCK YEAH. So happy it is GOLDLEWIS DICKINSON.
He looks like a slow ass motherfucking big boy and those are my fighting game character fetish. I already play Pot and Nago and this'll be a fine addition to my collection. Love how chunky the hits are when he swings his coffin around.
Gotta say tho the trailer was not very good. Felt pretty disjointed and ultimately didn't really show much. ArcSys really needs to get better at this.
Still, I'm happy the first DLC character is also the one I want the most (at least out of those rumored/datamined). Feel like I've lucked out here, especially looking at that DLC roadmap.

I read someone mentioning that Goldlewis ranks as the most american FG character and i have to agree.
Sammo Hung and especially Mike Tyson (I don't even know why he is being cited here lol) are not straight 150kg + obese like those characters are. They especially don't move and jump like ballet dancers would have a hard time to.
I get the "Sammo hung hommage", but it's no surprise people can be put off by those archetypes looking more fast and agile than everybody else.

Nah, I'm excited. I want That Man but couldn't care less about that Chaos guy
Those are actual lyrics from his theme and nobody can tell me otherwise.
I'm assuming he's going to have armor on a bunch of his stuff to balance out his slow speed. The run looks like it's very similar to Abigail's from SFV.
Man, why don't fighting games add more smooth and aloof assholes, gravel-eating Vegeta clones, black women with white hair, and Thanksgiving Turkeys with giant tits? Not to mention totally-not-underage characters that I totally don't wanna jerk off to, Your Honor, I swear. We don't have enough of those.
I love big bodies in fighting games. He looks great.
I want thicc boy SF5 dictator as a guest character now, heh.
