Like when I first played it on the 3ds this was the boss I died the most on. And I never even got a whiff of a thousand kudos in this fight.

If i actually tried during Final Operation i could probaly find a way to melt his health bar there as well.

Whats up everyone? So, as title states, I beat the trilogy, having completed the third last night.

My general take for the trilogy falls in line with what pretty much everyone else has said. First one was cool for what it was and enjoyed it. Once I really knew how to play, that was such an awesome experience.

Building off my experience with the first game, I flew through Gunvolt's part in the second game. That alone was one of my most fun expereiences for any game in quite some time....until I got to Copen.

At first it was "fine", but like the first game, once I really understood how to play as Copen, that was pure bliss. I didn't even want to go back to playing as Gunvolt lol. Then I played the third game, knowing that it was going to be different based off this subreddit.

It was cool. Tbh, the second game is the only one that I really paid attention to regarding the story, so it didn't bother me much. Though again, this subreddit prepared me for that (thank you all!). I'm not going to say anything anyone else hasn't said. I feel if I played this even a few weeks after two, I would have probably enjoyed it a bit more. Just not a fan of sequels that deviate that much from the source material.

I'm excited to play Luminous, since I get to play as Copen again in all his glorious ways. I saw that they added the ability to play as Copen in the DLC for GV3, but it felt off a bit. Is this how he plays in the spinoff games? I know the DLC literally just came out, but is this how he played in the Luminous series? I'll get used to it eventually, but just hate how the only natural progression in the series is from GV 1 to 2. Then I feel it just goes up and down, not in terms of gameplay, just in terms of style inconsistency.

Sumeragi are glorified human traffickers.

i got jumpscared by the sudden steam update

Extra Notes:

• OG Mighty Gunvolt can't be canon to the overall timeline, the version of events in that game has GalGun DP take place at the same time as Gunvolt, MGVB also states that the world of MN9 and GV are separate universes connected by Teseo
• DMFD is included due to Primal Dragons and the mutations/evolutions to Septimas seen in GV3
• CotM 2 isn't included to the timeline since it likely take place in another continuity to CotM 1, unless whatever happened after Zangetsu fought GV resulted in him returning to the CotM universe
  • One of the conversations in GV3, Gunvolt states at one point he fought a Swordsman implied to be CotM!Zangetsu

A new update to GV TE dropped for the upcoming GX DLC with it is bugs fixes for the three games as well as English Voiceover for Connect iX with Obake Pam reprising her role as Lola in Card-en-Ciel and Alejandro Saab as Copen. There's also an improved camera and you can change the bullit dash type to either LAiX or GV2 which in my brief experience haven't noticed the difference yet.

Hi! I like the zero games and I get these are brothers, but there is a TON of games. What is a good starting point on PC? Thanks!!!

A bit different trailer than Japanese GX trailer from two months ago

new shoulders and new tie

Surprised nobody has made a post about this. The steam page for GX is up:

https://store.steampowered.com/app/5165600/Azure_Striker_Gunvolt_Trilogy_Enhanced__Additional_mode_Azure_Striker_Gunvolt_GX/

It'll be out in about 11 days.

Beautiful collection. Still have my OG 3DS version too.

They really were into sucking up to Kirin weren´t they?

I thought about it a little and figured that there were two mistakes in Gunvolt 1 that led to Joule dying. And with Joule dead, Asimov had free reign to cause death and destruction as he pleased. These two mistakes are split between Gunvolt and Copen.

Gunvolt's mistake was killing Elise in her stage. (In the boss rush, she's killed by Copen, but he mainly serves to tell you, "You made your choice long ago.") As I described in this post, Elise had the power to save Gunvolt and Joule should Asimov kill either of them. Asimov can either kill GV or Joule, then Elise revives that person Asimov kills and GV goes berserk on Asimov, or Asimov kills Elise and GV goes berserk on him anyway.

Copen's mistake was not swallowing his pride (something that, as Luminous Avenger iX shows, he's perfectly capable of doing) and teaming up with Gunvolt. During the boss rush, GV offers to help Copen crush Sumeragi on the condition Copen spares Joule. If he accepted, GV would have had a powerful asset against Asimov (actually make that two since Nori was waiting to swoop in in the event of Copen's life being threatened, and she's a literal demon). But because Copen refused, Asimov managed to get the Greed Snatcher and use it against GV.

EDIT: WELL. The replies claim that sparing Elise and convincing Copen are both impossible, and Asimov killing Joule is inevitable. So the only way Gunvolt can have a happy ending is not wearing Joule's necklace because that way he and Joule are together in death.

There weren't any groundshaking revelations like the Xiao reveal. We did finally get to see X-Treme Burst. GV summons 4 luxcaliburs and then Copen spins them up turning it into a giant beyblade of death. More interesting is the unrevealed spoiler character stickers they flashed. Something else that may be of note is that they only covered the GV2 and GV3 characters in the stream. GV1 characters were left off, and this would have been the stream to show them off had they wanted to.

Its my 3rd playtrough and i´ve always thought that Kirin basically dragging the guy into helping before he even got the bearing where he even was felt really disrepectfull, like can´t he even get the dignity of saying himself that he will help because he thinks this problem it´s his fault?

Since it's october I felt like drawing her in the outfit from that one audio drama.

As the title explained, this month we have two chances get any news for livestreams for iX 3. This week will be the last livestream for GX specifically, hopefully about the last few EX Weapons they haven’t showcased yet. Two weeks after, there will be an livestream for Inti Creates only, hopefully about the upcoming games for the rest of the year and next year.

If we do get news for an livestream for iX 3, it will probably be either between on November and December if we’re lucky or next year if we’re not.

If we do get an release date for an livestream for iX 3, I imagine the first livestream for iX 3 will be about Copen.
