That’d be pretty funny though not gonna lie. Like, we’ve made it all this time only to eat **** at the end and die. I’d chuckle.

But seriously, I’d prefer not to have my neck snapped tonight, nor would I like to see any of y’all’ses necks get snapped, so let’s stop here.
I welcome a good death

End my suffering

Racism, apparently.

Byleth.

The route of all evil.
For real though why is Byleth such a contentious character? I’ve literally never seen a productive discussion about Byleth here or anywhere else on the internet without it devolving into a dumpster fire somehow lol

Hi. A mod here.

Yeah, this thread should probably get back on topic. Please and thank you.

:happysheep:

Everyone in the Smash fan base acts so entitled and petty. It’s so frustrating that I just want everything to END.
But I guess I’m not exactly helping matters with my own rage. Fighting fire with fire only makes things hotter. Y’all have fun with your mud slinging. I’ll just try to focus on playing the damn game.
My only thought is not to give voice to the vocal minorities online. If you see a bad hot take on Twitter, just ignore it. The more comments and retweets something gets the more it pushes things to the front. It's how you end up with things like people thinking the Smash fanbase is comprised of idiots because a random idiot said Kayuza is a shoto.

Gloating and trolling others also doesn't look good either. Not going to say the Smash fanbase wasn't bad after Byleth either, but the FE fanbase was far from pleasant as well.

I don't even remember how we got here.
No clue, I came in on not liking anime being racist.

Out of curiosity, does Fate/Stay Night have any Nintendo releases?

You wouldn't even let Byleth have Sothis's company?

You monster >:'V
Well, she's gone; reduced to atoms. So she can't really do that now can she?

Aaaand this is where I get told that she's inevitably brought back somewhere further on down the line where I haven't gotten to yet.

We as humans are attracted to negativity. I think a lot of content creators would say they could get 100 positive comments but 1 bad comment would ruin their day.

It's why spicy takes regarding any character or franchise in smash or anything really feels like it's much larger than the positivity. We're just attracted to that stuff even though the majority are usually either positive or neutral. We just filter it out for the bad.

Fits well with my classic last night:






....Oh no.... I'm twice now peak Smashboards content.... :drfacepalm:
My favorite out of context quote (from myself) will likely always be something along the lines of "Byleth you hack! Don't slap people with your spear! Stab them! STAB THEM!!!"

Twitter is a hot mess as salt is present in every corner you turn. Honestly, waiting is getting harder, but it we will arrive before you know it.

For me, I'm waiting for Metroid Dread and Exzeus collection (which is coming tomorrow) while preparing for the Last Mr. Sakurai Presents on Oct 5th

They were another Fire Emblem character, which a decent chunk of the fanbase is never gonna like. Not after the Corrin debacle.

But people were expecting them. When we heard Nintendo was choosing the dlc we expected nothing but shill picks. But after such heavy hitters like Joker and Banjo, people had hope that they’d end pass 1 with a bang. They didn’t.

Smash fans got salty, Fire Emblem fans shot back (though some of them were toxic as well tbh) the whole thing was a mess. And now Byleth can’t be discussed without someone starting some ****.

There's Extella and and Extella/Link


There's also a.... cooking game, no joke.
I believe you.

So Smash Bros is neat.

What's a stage you think is underrated?
Wuhu Island. The spirit battles that lock it into the different locations makes me want a toggle on what travelling stages stick at in hazard off mode.

Wow, never usually hear stuff this direct.
I think we're all getting sick of hearing about Switch Pro by now. Don't know why Game news sites keep biting. The boy who cried wolf would have kept his scam going for decades with them.

Spirit Train: The stage that I always play on when I do causal stuff because "I never play on it". I don't even know why I like it so much, I just have a burning desire to play on it every single time I'm in the mood for one of the not flat stages.

That's because it's not the Nintendo Switch. It's the Super Nintendo Switch.

Alright bros, which blue colored anime style sword wielder featured in a recent game whose design specifically appeals to me do you want in Smash?

Saber, no contest. There's some pretty cool Saber options even then. Artoria is arguably the most iconic, though.
