I care about plot in a fighting game if that affects what characters are in it.

Time to sit back and wait for Jam & Slayer to get confirmed because I don't think Order=Sol will be making an appearance.
And taking a look at the translated info lets on that we're somewhere in the events of Overture. I'd expect to see some of those characters here. Probably Sin, Valentine, Raven & Izuna. This probably also means no Dizzy & Testament unless this game will serve as a huge retcon to Overture which makes anything is possible. Should be interesting to see how that shakes out.

I'm really liking May's design, from all the characters revealed so far she's my favorite.
I still need Jam/Bridget and I'm set.

I don't think a retcon would be that necessary. With the Valentine that was ruining shit dealt with at the end of Overture, the whole "Gear sublimation" incident should have been deal with, as well. Thus, Ky shouldn't need to keep her in suspended animation anymore, I'd like to think.
Besides, Dizzy is like the 3rd most popular character according to the most recent poll. They'll likely find a way to make sure she's in.
Thanks *hits Ky's page on DL*

Now that I think about it this game being Xrd may just be that and we may be in a new part of the narrative now. If this is the case then Dizzy & Sin will be there and it'll be a family affair. I just want some of the Overture characters to make it just for the fact of the possibilities that the game left for those characters to be in a fighting game.
clearly....

Chippy Z! 
Potemkin looks pretty rockin', too. The only other fighters that could excite me this much are Darkstalkers, Samurai Shodown, maybe Red Earth. Can't wait to dive head first into this upon its eventual release.

Really liking Chipp and Potemkin's new designs. Also glad they're doing what they did from the original to X and giving characters a noticeable design change. It's refreshing for a series that's seen little aesthetic change for over a decade.

I like Potemkin's and Millia's changes so far. Shifts their color pallete to ones not already present in the cast (barring alt. colors).
However, the only thing that comes to mind when seeing Pot's new shoes is: "My goodness, that buffed 5K hurtbox."

I still can't believe how much these look like 2D. Can't wait to see more in motion.

when should we expect location test videos?
I'm counting on it, actually! Considering that Ky's profile definitely lists his status as being a King, it's safe to presume that this game not only takes place after the XX series, but GG2O, as well.
Besides, they'll never have a better chance to reintroduce the GG2O characters in a game that more people will stand to play. For example, Mecha-Valentine could just stand to be a replacement/inheritor of Justice's place in the roster, and I've been waiting on Raven to be a playable character in "GG proper" for years.

That subtlety
Location test footage is forbidden, so it could be a bit.
It starts on the 9th though.
Usually some person finds a way with a cell phone camera hidden in their pocket or bag. It often goes up after the first loketest date at night (Japan), so like, morning-afternoon here of the day the test happens is when we usually see the first loketest footage. Sometimes at a very late hour if they upload in the morning. This almost invariably happens with ArcSys games. Can't remember a loketest without footage.

yeah I remember some stealth Blaz footage back in the day even though recording was forbidden. nothing beats direct feed, but beggars can't choose.

It'd be too good and opportunity to pass up to be honest. Just might be that time though.
I'll just wait for Fanny in this corner here.

I really hope that's just a bad angle with May, because she looks awful.....

Potemfaust / Panzerkin!
If you ever manage to get Panzerfaust in the game, you have to give him a Xrd Pot color pallete =P

Looks MUCH better. Chipp's face does too
Not a fan of the artwork for this game so far but at least the models look good.
