I remember the first time I played GG was at a friends house, when I was like 8 or 9 and I was super excited to see May in it, because I thought it was cool to see a character in a fighting game that looked a lot like me when I was a kid who was also super strong enough to hold her own against the rest of the cast. I got back into it as an adult mostly due to how cool and unique the characters were, also the metal music influences in the game.
