I'm trying to step up my combo game in Guilty Gear and struggling. I know I'm pressing the correct buttons so I'm guessing my timing on the presses is off. Do I do the next attack as soon as the previous one lands or slightly before/after?
Be more specific, senpai.
watch the demos, try mashing, try different timings.....

If the attack doesn't come out, you pressed the button too fast.
If it doesn't combo, you pressed it too slow.
There's no trick. You just have to get the timing down.
This probably won't get you the optimal shit, but I've always found it easier to piece together my own combos instead of following videos
See what connects to what, what you can jump cancel and follow up, when you can roman cancel while having a good distance
>>380501145 Lets say I combo a close slash into a far one, I press triangle on my PS4 controller, do I press triangle again as soon as the slash connects or no?

For normals chains like that you can basically press them as fast as you want. But for more advanced combos you have to get some specific timings down.

You should be literally be able to mash it out
Okay, simple combos it doesn't matter all that much. For complex combos the timing is different for each one. I think I get it now.

Im new to fighting games too, but ive been playing a bit of injustice 2 lately.
If its any similar, theres no real timing on regular combos, but if you want to do a special move after the combo you need to input the special move as quick as you finish the regular combo even before all your attacks connect
Sorry if its confusing like I said im new to the genre
I just got this game yesterday. I'm enjoying trialling each of the characters even if I'm absolutely useless at the moment.
Any tips for picking it up faster/better?

Oh I remember when I still liked Netherrealm games...........

Guilty Gear has different cancelling and combos than Injustice. If you try to do a special move too early in GG, you'll just cancel into the special move and won't finish the combo, or it just won't come out at all

Nah, just go with the flow
Don't force yourself to pick things up that seem too complicated, start with basic shit and slowly build up, your progression should feel natural
Also get used to getting beat up in online for a while, create victories out of individual moments where you land a combo on someone proficient instead of winning the whole match

Depends on the characters and combos, say you're playing as Slayer, he's one of the few characters who has to link compared to people like Sol for instance, you just need practice Anon.

Did you buy on PS4 or pc?
Are there a lot of people playing it online?

Venom is really underwhelming without Dubious Curve.
