I know this is supposed to be a spiritual successor to Guilty Gear, but could they have, I dunno, changed it up a bit? I mean, come on! They might as well have just called it Guilty Gear!

I just saw Sol Badguy, Ky Kiske, Potemkin, Eddy, Bridgett what what looked like a female mashup of Faust and Venom on this video, and I'm pretty sure the gameplay is exactly the same. I would not be surprised if it contains just as much musical references as Guilty Gear.

At the very end we get a very, very brief glimpse of brand-new character μ-12, though, so that's something.
The story is pretty complicated so I could be wrong but,

isn't μ-12 noel? Who also may or may not be Jin and Ragnas sister? It's been awhile and the story is labyrinthine in it's complexity so I may be wrong.

Other than general pacing, GG and BB don't play alike at ALL. Well, they have some similar mechanics, but the characters and "Drive" system that they're based around are very unique. Ragna may LOOK like Sol, but he sure as hell doesn't play like him.

So, this is a SE edition that I'll have to fork out another 60 dollars to get or will added content also be offered as DLC similar to how RE5 handled it?
I really hope it's offered as a DLC, since I just ordered the first one...

To me it's Tager and Potemkin that look the most alike, but I can say nothing about gameplay. Also if Zappa and Eddie had a child, it would be Arakune (woah, creepy mating image).

seems like there was a bit of gameplay for Hazama (that black shadow with the clown smile that makes Rachel´s butler go "POPPYCOCK") as well.
When you play as him do they call him Hazama or Terumi?

they call him Hazama because he isnt in the weirdo clown form.
