   I have been reminded that Granblue Fantasy Versus Rising is doing a beta test this weekend. Feels good, though I'll admit I'm extremely rusty on my mentally unstable woman combos and the last day of a beta test is bad timing to try and refigure it out.

     Online lobby is full of trampolines from the fall guys mode so you have a decent map to jump around and explore. That Pavilion you can see in the first screenshot is the main area. Praise the Watame shrine behind the main screen. Also the soccer court on the side is neat.

     This lobby is actually really fun, nice to take a break from losing horribly to go wander around and play a game of soccer or two.

     Oh dear lord, there is a place where you can just create threads in game. Have some highlights from this sin of an idea.

     Oh right, game comes with a fall guys ripoff using the goofy looking lobby avatars too. But uh, I don't think I'm gonna be able to find a match of it.

     @DrRyanSkelton I feel it, I'm glad this game is better and has rollback. I wanted to like this game the first time around cause it had a lot of style and charm to it but the mechanics made every match feel samey since there wasn't a lot in the way of meaningful decisions to make in a match. The handful of new mechanics really spice up matches, especially since you have something to spend meter on that isn't a super.

     I felt Arcade mode was a fun level of challenge for a person of my limited skill so GBVS was one of my favorite fightans for that purpose. The RPG mode also had some super good bosses between the dozens of "vs fightan AI but she has hyperarmor" copy paste fights.
     
     That said I played through it again on hard mode and that was a massive mistake.

     @DrRyanSkelton I think the best part about the RPG mode is it's a good way to introduce a friend who isn't familiar with fighting games into it. Some people get real intimidated by fighting someone who's good at fighting games, so having something goofy and more casual to let them build practice on is nice.
     
     On that note Tekken should bring back Tekken Forces. Fighting game characters tacked into beat em ups/action platformers is surprisingly fun.

     Guardian Heroes was basically that design philosophy as a beat-em-up first
