the half star missing is for online play. now for why this game is cummy as fuck. the music the characters the stages the graphics the art direction the music the personality the care the presentation the gameplay the mechanics the music the characters the community, did I mention the music? I heard a song from this game before ever really caring about Guilty Gear at all, which soon lead to literally an entire year of my musical life being completely consumed by this series' music, and my free time just learning lore about the series. its so fucking good man, and I can't wait for Strive.
