User Sensei summarizes his experience with the game as follows: “First of all: It’s incredibly fun! I’m actually an MMO and MOBA player, but I have pretty much every fighting game on Steam in my library. Up to now I’ve only ever played fighting games casually, but GG Strive just keeps me hooked… The motivation to get better, to spend hours training and learning combos, makes a GG really easy. With the best will in the world, I can’t really find any real, negative points … so a clear purchase recommendation for everyone who can get something out of 2D fighters!”
Some also state that the game also brought them to the brink of anger or despair due to the difficulty.
