The other day we announced that skills performed using both simple and technical inputs would share the exact same properties in Granblue Fantasy: Versus Rising<\/em>. Reactions came pouring in, and I\u2019ve been doing my best to read as much of the feedback as possible.<\/p>\n From the comments we received, the most common were requests to retain some form of disadvantage for simple inputs and questions regarding why we\u2019d leave the option for technical inputs. I can see where they\u2019re coming from, and I\u2019d like to take this opportunity to shine some light on how this decision was made.<\/p>\n First, I want to reassure players that this system change was discussed over a long period of time, and we ultimately concluded that Granblue Fantasy: Versus<\/em> was the perfect game<\/a> to dare such game design<\/strong>.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Before explaining further, I would like to say that we fully understand that one of the most fulfilling aspects of the fighting game genre is the satisfaction of executing special moves. Becoming one with your character as you quickly input complex sequences\u2014that\u2019s a feeling unique to fighting games.<\/p>\n For many years, the fighting game community, including myself, have digested ever increasing numbers of titles. Thus, for the veteran player, you could say accurate inputs have become second nature. Fighting game newcomers, on the other hand, don\u2019t have this same experience. Accurate inputs represent an extremely difficult hurdle for some to clear, and we didn\u2019t want to discourage players for not being able to do so.<\/p>\n However, the most enjoyable part of fighting games-two players duking it out on equal footing-can only be experienced once this hurdle is surmounted. To deliver this joy to as many people as possible, we wanted to diminish the hurdle as much as we could<\/strong>. And to do that, we decided to remove the disadvantages from using simple inputs.<\/p>\n Technical depth, such as deciding in the moment whether to go for a simple or technical input, may be lost, but we do not believe that this will make the game a shallower experience. We\u2019ve put a lot of effort into creating a number of fresh mechanics that make use of simple inputs, so players can have fun with a variety of new techniques and strategies for each character. Along those lines, fighting games by their very nature get more complex as rosters expand, but we believe unifying input properties will ease the pace of this snowballing complexity. Despite this change, I imagine many veteran fighting game players (including myself, to be honest) will instinctively use technical inputs despite the existence of simple inputs. Not to mention the pressure of a match can be intense, so accidental misfires can happ<\/a>en in battle. To this end, we\u2019ve made it possible to disable technical inputs in the settings<\/strong>.<\/p>\n Looking beyond skill inputs, we want to bring the fun of fighting games like reading your opponent or navigating moment-to-moment strategy to players far and wide. We expect this will only bolster the fighting game community, so we\u2019re going to do everything in our power to bring you the best version of Granblue Fantasy: Versus Rising<\/em> that we possibly can.<\/p>\n The online beta test starts tomorrow. We want to hear your feedback, including your opinions about the skill input changes, so make sure you head to the survey site after playing the game-we\u2019ll use your feedback to make the game even better!<\/p>\n \u2014Tetsuya Fukuhara, Creative Director<\/p>\n<\/div>\n If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
