Rwby being popular in Japan is a strech. It does have a following there but it's mainly a western draw.There's no way that announcing DLC of any kind before launch would go over well. And certainly not to the western base who would see this as little more than an assets dump game without the new chars.
So BBXTag has been played at Taipei Game Show; you might've seen some gameplay floating around recently.Someone posted their 40min gameplay experience, analysis and opinions:https://www.reddit.com/r/Blazblue/comments/7u34bj/so_this_is_the_40_minute_tag_battle_video/A few notable things from the analysis/opinions:QuoteInstead of losing Persona cards, P4U characters will get damage from their persona being hit. Not sure whether it will cause to death or not. If both of them are hit, you will deal twice the damage (iirc on first play movie).The game is too fast-paced, even faster that BBCP(imo the fastest BB). The time for thinking the next move after knockdown is nearly none(or just I am bad). Increase hitstop might help imo.Also it is frequently said that this game is newbie-friendly (or too easy) due to the control layout. IT IS NOT. You actually need to do TONS of blocking and 4~5 combos can kill. It is like playing UNIEL but with partners and extra movements.I am wondering why they have auto tech while you fall to the ground (and that weird roll tech also, probably because UNI characters doesn’t have tech rolls). This makes both oki and wakeup stradegy a lot harder. Baiting/Reading is now REALLY important.GETB IS GODDAMN AIR PERFORMABLE.God damn it Tager

Yang's artwork is revealed early but not gameplay.Rest of the reused assets as DLC will still be paid.

I know I didn't miss that so it's clearly damage control.This is on top of the fact if the Blue Team is serious about making it 40$, atleast they are more honest about it.
So it's being rushed out for the EVO season. No wonder Blake, Yang, and the other reused assets are DLC.If it wasn't an EVO headline, maybe all of this nonsense could've been avoided.
Gameplay was streamed, and word of an English dub was let slip/(We also got some good memes out of that stream.)

Let that shit be true!!!I found it completely stupid on them removing the dub from Central Fiction and Revelator series because of nonsensical reasons.And people have the right to continually slam Arc Sys about it because it really does leave a massive black mark especially in the case of Blazblue and how would affect future work like the still awaiting Persona 5 Arena.
Honestly, as much as I hope for it to be true, I'm bracing myself for no dubs to happen.The streamers/mods were apparently trying to double back on that statement. No idea if this is because they accidentally let the cat out of the bag too early, or if what he said wasn't quite correct.
So,What y'all saying is RWBY is going to be free dlc,as well as an comfirmed english dub.Looks like they finally doing something right.
matches that I happy to see:Ragna vs HildeRagna vs RubyRagna vs YangEs vs LinneWaldstein vs Iron TagerWaldstein vs AzraelBlake vs LinneRuby vs Gordeau(IMO,See who got better hands at scythe)I really don't know much about persona tho.
So future trailers are for DLC stuff.Ok.DLC full pack is estimated to be $20 with each 3 pack around $5 or $6.
US pricing details said:Retail price for physical and digital: $49.99Individual DLC packs (there are six): $4.99 ($30 for all 6)Complete DLC bundle: $19.99Deluxe Digital Edition (the game with all the DLC): $69.99The first DLC pack, which includes Platinum, Orie, and Kanji, is free for everyone at launch. (Leaving with $25 of content left)Per earlier confirmation, Blake Belladona and Yang Xiao Long will be free to download.Also, UNIEL cast will get ENG dubbing for the first time, as well as Central Fiction cast like Es. P4A and Blazblue, IMO, will probably get reused audio from past iterations which I'm fine with.
that pricing with the digital deluxe edition is odd since you can just buy the og game and the pass for 60, unless ALL the dlc is out on launch day which i doubt will happen
