Secret Voice
The following is a transcript of Kusao's "Secret Voice" message found in Guilty Gear Xrd -Revelator- and Guilty Gear Xrd Rev 2[4].
- Hello everyone, I'm the guy behind Ky Kiske, Takeshi Kusao. I'm sure there are many loyal fans, and some of you who are playing Guilty Gear for the first time here...
- So, it wouldn't be an understatement to call Guilty Gear a series by now,
- but how should I say... I think this is more than enough to call a new version.
- And, I'm sure even right now, the staff is thinking hard about how to make the game even more awesome,
- in many many ways, of course, but... For example starting with the story,
- my goodness, how amazing is the story, right? The way it plays out, and the possibilities it holds. Even my character, Ky...
- ...I just can't wait to see what happens to him! A story of this scope, no matter what awaits him... (and me, really)
- I'll be sure to brace for impact, and take head-on whatever it is. That's how I play Ky Kiske.
- All of you have a lot of thoughts and emotional investments to this game, too. You go to arcades a lot, right?
- At any rate, I hope we can enjoy the Guilty Gear universe together, and continue making this a better and better game.
- And, that basically wraps it up. Man, that felt so text book... Was that okay? Yes? I'm sorry! And that was Ky Kiske's Takeshi Kusao!
