I'm sold as long as Faust is still in it.

I'm looking forward SO DAMN HARD to Venom. I wanna play with black, homosexual, pool player assassin again. The depth on Venom's gameplay is just insane.
I could never get into Faust... like... how do you even combo. Too much random, yet that's also his biggest appeal
I can see why Arks went with 3D models, they're a small company so producing handdrawn art for both Blazblue Chrono Phantasma (and possible sequels) and this would just be too much even for them. Considering everything they're still productive AS HELL. Daisuke is probably sitting in the office playing his guitar all day long for everyone, that's how they find the strength to work so damn hard, he awesomizes everything.
One good thing about 3D models is that it's way easier to make alternate costumes at least Considering how Arks' has released like 50 recolours of every character in Blazblue it bodes well.

I'm not all that into fighting games in general, but Faust provides exactly the kind of zany shenanigans that make me want to play. Swim in the ground? Why not! Disappear only to walk out of a spontaneously formed door behind the opponent? Even better! I also enjoyed not knowing which spirit I'd get with Zappa (was there a way to control that? seemed random to me)

No I think Zappa is random as well, apart from his final summon at least. Love all the music references in these games btw ^^ Venom, Slayer, Kiske (Helloween), Millia Rage (Meliah Rage) and so on... it's cool ____________
Millia got a new outfit which I like, her previous colours were too similiar to Ky's. Also Potemkin got a complete redesign which is... intruiging... don't like it very much.
Approved of Ky's sheath and Sol's new zippo-lighter Fuuenken.
All in all it's pretty conservative and nostalgic. Was hoping for a bit more creativity, but considering they're using 3D models it's not hard to implement new outfits at all so I bet we'll see some cool new styles in the end ____________
Interesting XRD system changes, copied from Shoryuken.
Dust Attack While standing, D
Performs a unique attack that can not be blocked crouching. After the hit, follow-up attacks are possible.
Press Up Chase after the opponent knocked into the air.
Press Down - Chase after the opponent knocked forward. Powerful follow-ups are possible in the corner.
Roman Cancel Press 3 Attack buttons (excluding the D Button) *Consumes 50% of the Tension Gauge
You can interrupt movement, actions and the recovery of actions.
Furthermore, Roman Cancels have the effect of slowing time of everything but yourself. Roman Cancel the projectile you release and execute a simultaneous attack!
Clash
When the release attacks from both sides collide a clash occurs. Clashes have the following three patterns.
Normal Clash When attacks of close attack strength collide, both sides can immediately take another action.
Repel When theres a difference in strength of the colliding attacks, the weaker side is repelled, leaving themselves open.
Danger Time When both sides collide with powerful attacks, after a special cinematic both enter Danger Time. During Danger Time, landing an attack first causes a Super Counter, a chance to score a highly damaging combo.

The clash system is really similar to the Soul calibur one. Just switch vertical and horizontal attacks to powerful and weak.
But I'm unsure about the cancel time slowdown. It's got the chance to dash forward, cancel and then the enemy is slowed down? ____________ DON'T BE A NOOB, JOIN A.D.V.E.N.T.U.R.E.
Not too sure about the balance of that myself. I think it'll expand combo opportunities quite a bit... can probably create some very interesting stuff with the slowdown.
I honestly hope FRCs won't make a comeback. Impossible enough for anything but a pro to use, and if you add online lag to that... yeah no it's not gonna happen. Still they boost your efficiency by such an INSANE amount that it's essential to any kind of skilled play.
I'd much rather see some kinda activated mode you can put yourself in where RCs cost half as much. Like, when they activate that you know the RCs are gonna ****ing rain and massive combos will be seen.
Here's some beautiful classic ownage btw.
