Xrd mostly tried to simply replicate X/XX 2D animations with their style to remind everyone of how it was and put more confidence in their animation style. Now, in Strive, we can actually see them develop a new art style and be able to show off character development through subtle changes in animations and redesigns, which is much appreciated! Things like Narwhal instead of Jaws Monster for tail attack, or her performing the moves alongside Undine rather than just letting her own wings control her power show so much character development since her XX days and its just amazing to witness. I can see why she was so hard to animate and took so long to develop - it is phenomenal. Plus, the queenly attire she dons is gorgeous, and facial animations are top-notch, too.
0:54 I _do_ like Dizzy taking charge in the Dust animation and fighting in tandem with Undine and Necro, graduating from being yanked along by their lead instead, _tho it remains funny_ XD
@@valentdsThey aren’t black goo though. They don’t deform in their attacks like Eddie does, and though it’s obviously dark, their bodies also have details drawn as well
I think a mesh of both would be cool. The first one is not a design I expect for a cute girl for what I have seen from her personality, but I really liked the ribbon she had and the hair, also the spirits too.
@@platinumg.8614 i actually thought it was more fitting to have the bizarre clothing. Made her look more alien, less human. Makes sense, since she's not completely human. Less clothes also made her tail and wings pop out furthering the lack of humanity
@@Jairjax Oh thats fair, though like I still find weird the pantie thing. The only thing I dont like the old design. I wouldnt mind the design being naked but this part is a big ehhh to me
ggst is my first guilty gear game and I feel I can already put Dizzy on my list of characters that are gonna confuse the shit out of me when fighting against her.
You can see even in xrd necro and undone were taking control and using her. Still distracting her during attacks and dragging her along while she begs them to stop. The transformation is amazing now. And I like the color change. It’s not longer good and evil. They’re both good now, though necro looks creepier than ever.
Necro looks like Eddie with a white robe on We used to have the cool reaper guy on one side and celestial/angel on the other. It's a shame they became black slimes wearing white robes now.
To me it feels that since Dizzy has finally accepted and become comfortable with her power, Necro and Undine are now one with her and thats reflected in the way they look.
@@lexthehedgehog3650 one general while there is SOME body transformation it’s a lot more “clean” and less naigjnarish and scary. It’s almost like the old stuff are more like nightmares manifesting through her body and she has controls she’s shaping them to her will.
Pros: she seems more powerful and also closer to Justice Cons: Necro and Undine are so blend they lost all personality, they could had just turned into wings and called it a day.
Xrd all the way, no contest, not just this character design but everything else. The UI, the stage, the music, the gameplay, the unique character design, whenever I boot the game up I get immerse into the heavy metal anime techno-fantasy world of Guilty Gear. Xrd, no Guilty Gear series prior to Strive alongside Blazblue series is peak anime fighter, gameplay wise, and visually, all god tier.
New Dizzy is fine, but Xrd was PERFECT. Wish they didn't go all the way to redesign her. Her heavy metal vibes are gone and the whole Disney Princess thing, IDK if I'll get completely get used to it. And yes, I know she's a queen now, etc. But still. A little too much change for my taste. Would like to see all Strive Dizzy concept art, especially the discarded ones.
@@xravia79 This is one thing SF6 totally got right. It'd be a little miracle to achieve that for Strive (because of the way it's animated), but we can always hope...
It's kind of incredible how much better Xrd looks in its color theory, stage design, and mood/feel of its UI. I've accepted that some of the changed character designs aren't bad, but man it's so depressing to see Guilty Gear become so sterilized and stripped down compared to it's chains and flames aesthetic that set it apart from other games.
i feel focuses more on a watered down style to appease possible new players while xrd was being extra to the point it made said newcomers pretty uncomfortable if the comments say anything
I agree on the UI take, strive's menus look like they are out of a shitty mobile game. Everything else about it looks miles better than Xrd including stage lighting, character design, sfx and animation
@@polar6066 I think if they ever made Strive 2 or guilty gear whatever and made it xrd complex (or lowkey even ACPR complex) it could retain players, simplicity alone doesn't mean much when most of those "simple" games are dead af. And since this new game probably could be more complex characters would also be more complex.
I miss Undine and Necro having unique designs and palettes. Also her twintails were cute. It’s not a bad design, it’s just kinda a bummer, like if we got Sol without the headband and red leather. Edit: Also One Dawn is gonna remain her best theme, I’m confident in that. It’s completely perfect.
@@NoSmoke1 Has it not been? Why wait for the character to be released when they all have a new theme on arrival? Why is Strive such a weird bundle of nonsensical decisions?
I strongly prefer new design because it is more elegant, unique and memorable. tbh, old Dizzy always felt like someone's "do not steel" design. Besides, Ram looks like old Dizzy with a lot of skin and "wings". Also I already see how it is easier to cosplay. The only downside is it is not that in-your-face-BDSM sexy, but I think GG is sexy enough.
Honestly new design is way less unique to me. Her wings disappear during her walk animation. Show that to me and I would have a hard time telling you that’s dizzy. Almost all of her unique elements are other gone or toned down. I don’t really know how you can say she’s more unique than her old design. There really isn’t anyone who looks like old dizzy.
@@ciontachthecthonicchampion3576 I mean, when we first met her in the park in GG X, she was wingless and in a casual blank dress. I bet the new look is inspired by this.
@@Adahnone1 agreed. People seem to forget this But then she transformed into something cooler and more to fight with My big problem is she doesn’t look like a queen, or really, look much like dizzy. If you were to put this girl in a different game without her wings? I’m not even sure I would make the connection that this is a dizzy reference even until you told me.
XRd Dizzy is way better, the design looks original as always. in Strive looks average just like another anime waitress , not to mention her theme music sucks. from a graphics tech point of view both look great.
Were you even around during the accent core days? She's actually wearing more in Xrd. Her torso is more exposed in the XXAC games and Xrd covered her up by giving a corset. Series has been around for 20+ years now new fans are coming in telling OGs how to enjoy their games.
@@thanghoangsong6138 uhhhhhhhhhhhh i dont know about that chief. i feel like the old design failed to recognize her gentle and regal demeanor and i think its kinda wack to associate that same gentle regality with "tradwife". not to be like the social label police or nothin.
@@crickbed86 "contrast", it's pretty much in Dizzy's character, like how she's a gear but a pacifist, she's modest yet wears revealing outfit. honestly the " clothes doesn't fit his/her personality" crap just stifles creativity, and people who keeps saying that is also, probably, the ones who will complain that a character is "generic".
Ruined another design. Gotta hate strive continuing to pander to modern audiences. Weird how empty lobbies are but so many views and opinions are made but no one plays
dunno what your on bruv but you def need to visit a doc asap cause there's something very wrong with your eyes and/or brain. Her outfit is now objectively better than that half-naked "incel dream" look she used to have
Too bad but they're going all over the place but nowhere with character roles. Blazblue will always be superior to guilty gear. Noel was consistently central to the story from start to finish, unlike dizzy where she was overhyped in the x series and didn't do anything afterwrds
bro I like both Dizziys but she is a literal queen now, plus she always hated the outfit in the xrd story mode, part of her character arc is her finally keeping herself under control. modesty was always her personality do this makes sense. For Testament my guy is a literal gear we don't know if he's had a penis or a puss since his appearance. For Bridget idk what to tell you, the boy Daisuke been woke since guilty gear was made, I don't really understand all of that stuff but its pretty clear hes loved western culture and America, this was a huge inspiration for guilty gear after all. anyway everything his pen touches looks amazing so I'm down for it
To be fair dizzy was always a nun. It’s just now she doesn’t change into a different outfit for fighting. Which makes sense in terms of character development but I feel is a bit of a cop out.
Xrd style look like it can not be beaten at some point then strive just beat it without being more overcharge and more fluid and simple, if Xrd get that treatment it would look pretty sick.
Xrd Dizzy: "Necro no please don't obliterate my opponent"
Strive Dizzy: "If he dies, he dies."
“Winning isn’t what we’re after”
Also Dizzy: “I win”
Xrd mostly tried to simply replicate X/XX 2D animations with their style to remind everyone of how it was and put more confidence in their animation style.

It seems like her entire body has harmonized ans its not chaotic anymore thats why Necro and Undine seem so much uniform now.

Love Necro's and Undine's updates. Plural harmony is so good and its wonderful to see Dizzy achieve that.
real. xrd wasnt too bad but strive deff fits
i like the concept, but despise the art on that. they're black goo now...
@@valentdsNo, it shows that she finally has them under HER control, that’s why they look sealed.

I don't get how people like that sit lazy change to Necro and Undine.
1:03 she prevents the squirrel from going into harm's way, how cute
Honestly, the way dizzy just go full force with her beam at 1:42 with undine and necro together went really hard
I cant wait to see her face (or necro and undine's face) when she got Faust super move
I love Xrd
Greatest GG of all time bro. Shame they never made a new one
@@malikoniousjoe ikr, the perfect GG game
Strive is total shit. Xrd was my pinnacle GG game ( from playing the first in the 90z)
I like her Xrd design better. Her wing people thingys had more color and expressions/emotions
definitely a huge change in dizzy's character and playstyle in her movesets
I agree with you, WinterIce! :D
Our girl has grown up.
finally. i don't like the design at all of undine and necro, but i always hated her playstyle, maybe now's the chance
@@NoelJohnCarlo hehe thx🫂
@@lexthehedgehog3650 she really has
The new design is good, but I prefer the coloured wings rather than just black and white ones.
Old design was def more fantasy and interesting. New gg designs are less anime and more grounded

She looks more control in her abilities and less afraid
BUT WHAT THEY DID THE UDINE AND NECRO WTF.
ミカエルソードなんてあったか？🙄
…と思ってたけどなるほど、今まででかい大剣みたいな腕に変化してたあの攻撃がミカエルソードにまで昇華されたわけか😊⚔️✨

i like the new outfit but miss the old hair, gonna wait for a mod to give her the old hairstyle back

Woah bro chill. That's racist
Those are her parents? I thought she came out an egg.

necro looks funny asf what are you even on about
It seems to me that over time, the personalities of Undine and Necro gradually fade, giving way to more and more space to Dizzy herself.
To me it feels that since Dizzy has finally accepted and become comfortable with her power, Necro and Undine are now one with her and thats reflected in the way they look.
@@lexthehedgehog3650 one general while there is SOME body transformation it’s a lot more “clean” and less naigjnarish and scary.

Pros: she seems more powerful and also closer to Justice
Cons: Necro and Undine are so blend they lost all personality, they could had just turned into wings and called it a day.
Her new design is cooler IMO and I'm usually in support of fan service lol
