Ironic weebs are the reason Strive sold. It just came in the right time where anime popularity exploded due to covid, and it felt like The Anime GameTM which means it’s optimal to buy it.
Notice how most are actually character fans and not GG fans (Bridget makes my identity valid). Strive has no popularity in Japan for pro FG players, it’s only fans are troons.
Arcsys knows those people won’t come back for a new Guilty Gear because they don’t care about gameplay but aesthetics and Strive already checks all the boxes, which is why they’re not making a new one and decided to go with Marvel.
