It's honestly a good game to hop between characters since they are all pretty easy, you can just get a good feel of the general combo structures and as long as you stay between relatively similar character you get used to it really fast
I love the “he looks like he’s doing Belial stuff that could be real” as if the alternative was this is all just a dream and the real Belial stuff was the friends we made along the way
Can I just say how happy I am Sajam is playing Belial? Not just because I like the character, but because it means we get to listen to Parade's Lust a lot in this video, which is a banger of a theme. So nice to have good music in a fighting game.
I told myself I would try a new character when Rising came out but Narmaya is still really fun and complex enough. ESPECIALLY with all the new system mechanics lol. Every character is so unique though, it's awesome
It’s crazy to know I just queued randomly with Sajam on ranked (I was playing Beelzebub). It’s a first watching a replay from a fighting game and I couldn’t help but just think: “what the hell was I doing?” So is the learning process of fighting games.
I was thinking the same you kept using your black hole when sajam was jumping a lot and you can do 2H, black hole into huge anti air combo damage or basic one for now would be let it sit into 5H,Medium,Heavy, 214L but later on you'll be doing simple but damaging stuff like after black hole just 5H, SSBA and stuff.
Ive started watching my recordings back and its really an eye opener for improvement lol. You can be your own annoying backseat gamer. Usually whenever I grab a snack.
@@Nazarus1983 The usual one I do is 2H Karma(22H) Heavy-autocombo into light chaoscalibus (214L) make sure yo way till they fall a bit they fall in slow mo after Karma hits and you get plenty of time to line up so they dont end up too hight at the end.
I gotta say watching sajam learn a game is always so good like he takes the time to say hey this is what im struggling with and try to look for an answer. (he may even steal it from another player lol)
To build on the Bravery Points: -1 to Raging Strike or Brave Counter (guard break or pushblock) -1 getting guard-broken by Raging Strike; Getting hit by it as a combo extender doesn't count -1 if you get hit by a clean hit (cinematic) super, -2 if it's the low health super. The damage bonus will be applied. +1 if you land a clean hit super, +2 for the low health version, damage bonus will kick in 1st point gone is a freebie but 2 gone is (I don't remember exact numbers) something like 10-15% more damage taken, 3 is something like 30-50%. High level players seem to be mostly using them on Brave Counters
the rollout may be iffy (not an upgrade, full price, expensive dlc), but it's great that they didn't just let it die. always looked fun to me. traditional foundation with some cool core mechanics (that don't use meter). really does give it its own space in the genre.
I love these games but the DLC has always been stupid. Both stupid expensive and just stupid. No, I'm not spending five bucks for a background, thank you. Plus apparently before I got the first game they had some battle passes?
@@MaximumCarnage- True, but all that means is it'slightly discounted from full price. Meanwhile, the season pass price is truly absurd, being the same price as the game itself, and that bodes quite poorly for what the price of individual DLC characters is likely to be.
I've watched Sajam learn a lot of games, but this is the first time I'm trying to learn alongside. I was prepared for it but it's still disheartening how fast he picks things up. Just gotta keep at it! Actually does anyone know a good place to find new players in this game? I joined some GB discords with minimal success so far. I'm thinking I need to make some friends before the honeymoon phase is over.
I've been saving and getting hyped for Tekken 8, i wanted to get into competitive FG, bought an arcade stick since i can't do anything with controllers and the stick is awesome for arcade 90s games, tried the demo and it barely runs at low on my PC my dreams are crushed 😭. Now I'm looking for a fighting game, SF6 looks good but i hate the new characters and the hip hop style, MK1 female characters are horrible (actually everyone looks terrible and lame but the girls are just terrible), GG strive is nice, KOF15 (i love KOF) is awesome but it's basically dead, killer instinct is basically dead, soul calibur 6 (love it) completely dead, DoA6 is trash i love DoA5, under night 2 I'm not sure, GBFVR looks amazing, everyone is beautiful and attractive, the attacks are amazing, great japanese voice actors. My fear about this game is that it might die off fast and I'll waste 80€, I'm poor and can't afford to be wasting money without thinking, i know T8 won't die off but i can't run it. I don't know what to do, I'm on the fence, I know that it's time for a new pc since I don't care about consoles i love the versatility of pc, but that'll take some time 😂, but yeah fighting games are too expensive for me at least.
Feel the same, played strive a lot but got pretty burnt out and didn't really get into any other fighting game but I've been havíng a ton of fun with granblue. Only got the free version cause 50 euros is a bit much but definitely buying it when it gets on sale.
The floatyness and slightly slower pace actually make the game more accessible to me. I like Strive a lot but this game is a lot easier for me to follow compared to Strive or other Guilty Gear entries. @@spicyluvsyou
I'm having a "who do I main?" crisis myself. I played the original for a month, but because of the online stopped before any DLC was even out, so there's so many more characters now. My big 3 candidates are Zeta (my original main), Belial, and Zooey, but I think there's also some chance I go with Yuel or Grimnr.
It's ridiculous and there's more to unlock and you can play whatever song you want. It's not locked to stage or character. It's so tough to go back to SF6 music lol
I don't know if this is the same as Beta 2, but Belial's 66L into 5M is an excellent frame trap. It'll mess up quite a few people if they don't know how to deal with it.
I pmayed Soriz during the beta and had Zeta for secondary. I have the free version and currently Soriz isn't in rotation but Zeta is and I may end up maining her, after almost dropping her. It just gotta click
Honestly didnt think id like nier so much, also with the pre order i got so many weapons + colors and i switch characters constantly so its worth it for me
I was like that too. I was set on cag then I toyed around with nier a little and fell in love and now maining her. For a pupper character she feels pretty intuitive. She snowballs people pretty quickly if you can set up too.
You know, I should probably have known the characters in the free to play version rotate before spending 15 non-stop real life hours playing Siegfried.
@@bii_gii No, it actually uses the voice each player has the game set to. So if you have the game on English and your opponent has it on Japanese, your character will have their English voice and the opponent's will have their Japanese one. It's a bizarre practice I thought ArcSys wasn't doing anymore.
I think it's neat. I was thinking I hope riot does this and has like 6 more dubs. It's another step of customization beyond costume and color. Imagine playing Ken with a Brazilian dub for him.
@@robertmahiques6218It's not customization at all. You have zero control over the voice you hear from your opponent's character, it will always be what they have it set to, never what you do.
@@Zevox87 "You have zero control over the voice you hear from your opponent's character, it will always be what they have it set to, never what you do." So... it's just like the colour and weapon they picked? Because last I checked, you also have zero control over that.
Im new but Im playing her because shes cool and fun af lol. She is the most interesting sword character to me, with Katalina being 2nd. I was interested in the samurai girl but her gameplay feels more like a dagger character than a sword
granblue seems cool and i'm liking what i'm playing so far but i can't say i like how any of the characters feel to play. the only character i do actually like somewhat is lowain which is concerning
Hi sajam, person who ended up playing gran and should have just went free to play here.....i am indeed a little mad about it
At least you can lab weird interactions against characters hard to interpret like yuel and nier I guess?
@Cassapphic it's fine I just said it for the memes mostly I'm a character hopper so I'll get my money's worth lol
@@Mrholysymboli like that i just realised im a character hopper
It's honestly a good game to hop between characters since they are all pretty easy, you can just get a good feel of the general combo structures and as long as you stay between relatively similar character you get used to it really fast
well you can at least grind his alternate costume
Glad to see sajam play some granblue
I love the “he looks like he’s doing Belial stuff that could be real” as if the alternative was this is all just a dream and the real Belial stuff was the friends we made along the way
Can I just say how happy I am Sajam is playing Belial? Not just because I like the character, but because it means we get to listen to Parade's Lust a lot in this video, which is a banger of a theme. So nice to have good music in a fighting game.
Me:
>reads video title
>"he's gonna pick Belial with the quickness"
Sajam:
>picks Belial
Poor predictable Jiyuna, always picks rock.
I told myself I would try a new character when Rising came out but Narmaya is still really fun and complex enough. ESPECIALLY with all the new system mechanics lol. Every character is so unique though, it's awesome
Yeah the new system mechanics spiced her up a lot. I'm in the same boat, many others look fun but can't stop playing her.
hearing the breakdown of all the character and then just "Lowain" sent me

When in doubt, there's always Lunalu, drawing away in her corner.
" Impossible to pick a character", baited Sajam.
Settles on Belial at minute 3.
He looks sick as heck. I don't really blame him.
I gotta say

Don't you get the bravery points on supers even if they don't hit anything?
I like fighting games where the world itself starts breaking apart when moves clash
“This is a demon” lmao
Good to see sajam play versus rising after he KILLED the first game.
P.S: pogo lady zeta is really fun

Wanna play? lol (Im not amazing tho)
@@quarium5681 Yeah! Always looking for games. Do you use Discord? I'm brand new/pretty bad lol
Never ended up trying the first one but Im having a blast with Rising
True. Vira is tempting
Really fun game and ton of fun characters. Sadly cant afford the game at full price. Gonna enjoy the free edition for now.

Sajam prolly like Lucilius a lot
While we only seen his story mode boss moveset, I can tell hes going to have some bullshit
1:20:23 mf's ping really took the "rising" part of the game's name to heart 💀
What Belial color has pink feathers and rose colored glasses?
What platform does this guy play on?
Yes Sajam playing Granblue. Next stream he’s beating everyone 😮
1:08 this is the demon lmao 🤣 so true the tiny Terror
I was gonna play Soriz but will probably play the free version for a while
good to see sajam playing my main therefore the game is a masterpiece now
I pmayed Soriz during the beta and had Zeta for secondary. I have the free version and currently Soriz isn't in rotation but Zeta is and I may end up maining her, after almost dropping her. It just gotta click
In the free version can you buy specific characters you want or no?
Nope
@whis2790 that's wack as shit
You only get Gran who is always available and 3 characters who rotate weekly
Honestly didnt think id like nier so much, also with the pre order i got so many weapons + colors and i switch characters constantly so its worth it for me
I was like that too. I was set on cag then I toyed around with nier a little and fell in love and now maining her. For a pupper character she feels pretty intuitive. She snowballs people pretty quickly if you can set up too.
It's a fun game to casually play for me.
Im tempted to buy this game and just give my loved ones SLIGHTLY less expensive presents
I find the button config layout weird on pad any suggestions
I switched my heavy and unique button
@Nazarus1983 yeah I tried heavy on r1 it's better but do you keep the unique on x?
@@Space__Burrito l m h s
U grab dash block
Is my setup I think
WE ARE SO BACK
For anyone worried about DLC just wait till the first character to come out
I can't fucking wait I BETTER be able to have Zero on blast as Lucillius annihilated the enemy.
You know, I should probably have known the characters in the free to play version rotate before spending 15 non-stop real life hours playing Siegfried.
THAT"S ME ! GG
I wish I could play this game. I loved the original one.
Too bad I'm a third worlder
Free version only has access to Gran's trials.
Well I think Sajam would like Seox over Belial honestly.
Jealous that Sajam is able to find good/decent connections in this game, I'm having a much worse time in that regard than I do with Strive or SF6.
Strives online is just fked. Craps while nowhere near as bad as when Xbox Cross play dropped still disconnects you from stations often.
@@spicyluvsyou I just mean the connections of the matches themselves, not the actual network connection problems that Strive suffers from.
This is the first time i played GBVS. So i downloaded the free edition and played *Djeeta* which i really had fun with her and reach ranked B2.
10:00 alrighty chatroom
Ladiva or Uninstall.
Why does it mix voice acting languages online like BBTAG? It's literally just worse for both players.
im guessing its a setting which you can pick the language spoken for each character individually like street fighter. its only client side

Why is everyone playing vira 😔. I mained her last game and no one played her but now everyone is lol

@Nazarus1983 really? Didn't know lol. I joined very late in versus. I thought I was special picking a character no one used 😂😂😂
I can fix her.
Definitely the character I've run into the most online. Djeeta and Zeta are the only other ones I see with any consistency.
First
Glad I didn't buy this. Definitely not for me.
Thanks for sharing. Everyone was waiting with bated breath for your opinion.
Glad to see my girl Vira always gets submitted to will it kill lmfaooo
granblue seems cool and i'm liking what i'm playing so far but i can't say i like how any of the characters feel to play. the only character i do actually like somewhat is lowain which is concerning
