You.
Oh I played Xenoblade X. I regret that it's the only Xenoblade game I have NOT finished, I got stuck at a boss late game and my Skells kept being destroyed and I didn't have any money to replace them and it was SUCH a boss that... not to give anything away, but once you entered the lair you couldn't save so trying it again meant watching an army of cutscenes over again before trying again. Eventually the Switch was upon me and I guess I kinda moved on... I feel really bad about that.You.
I like you already.
when I first got ultimate I was like “hold up you included Xenoblade 2 music but nothing from X??” But then after Min Min, Byleth and Sephiroth I’m like “...ohhhhh. Sakurai, you sly dog.”
aside from uncontrollable, aBOreSSs (the prog ares theme) is a MUST. one listen and you’ll see why.
Is this perhaps why Walking is important, since unlike Dashing, it isn't as committal and you can Shield without having complete any sort of animation
It was the final boss wasn’t it
I'd love it if Sora's lack of inclusion came down to a really surprising reason.
So we have:
This man/woman gets it.
Yeah, that’s definitely not the reason. If he’s not in, it’s because negotiations went sour. There’s a lot of rumors that indicate Nintendo atleast tried to get Sora in.
As 7nator stated, dashing isn't your only option. Walking has a lot of use in Ultimate or any Smash game in general. The ability to act any way you want out of a walk is a huge asset. And as an Incin player I utilize jumps a lot (Grappler jumping, essentially) to bait out projectiles or attacks. I don't dash as much anymore when I'm at a range where projectiles are still useful/safe for the opponent to use to ensure I can block/jump or counter as needed. Using ALL of your mobility options is just another skill a player has to hone. But so many players seem to forget walking is a thing or that it's not worth using.
So the pre final boss then. The REAL final boss, woo that’s intense
Actually, all bosses have this mechanic. I got the popup for the one where they take Irina away form you for no reason. I needed my healer dangit!
Don't remember what I did to beat it, but Luxaar's skell was definitely a huge difficulty spike. The fight after wasn't so bad, you just need to keep your skells up to stand a chance.
I didn’t know that lmao, guess i was so good at every boss fight before then that it only gave me the prompt at the final battle
I incorporate jumps and walking. It still doesn't change the fact that a decent amount of times, you'll be attempting to dash in and feel frustrated that you can't shield in time. Let's not forget that jumps can leave you open to anti-airs and walking is slow depending on the character, so they're not exactly perfect answers. I do agree that more players need to use them for sure, though!
If you mean the "you suck so we can (or will) give you stuff to help you out" then yeah.
Oddly enough, I didn't get the prompt for that battle despite clearly having a hard time with it, but I suspect that's because I discovered infinite Overdrive and then won like, second try or something.
Uhhh... huh huh huh huh. You said butthead huh huh huh huhYeah, that’s definitely not the reason. If he’s not in, it’s because negotiations went sour. There’s a lot of rumors that indicate Nintendo atleast tried to get Sora in.
It’s sad that we’re probably missing out on both Sora & Crash because of their owners being buttheads.
that makes me a SAAAAAAAAAAAD panda
That is not the point.
There’s still plenty of content original to Kingdom Hearts that could feasibly supply a Disney-less Challenger Pack.
Except I think that Sakurai might think that they need to add Disney content in order for Kingdom Hearts to be represented properly.
This pass is not for me particularly but I could in fact see worse options
Spyro has always been completely unpopular in Japan to the point where Year of the Dragon didn't even come out there, so that was never going to happen either way.But yeah, if CRASH is out, then Spyro is out too (same owner as Crash)
Unfortunately, that's highly unlikely if Minecraft's track selection is any indication. Unless Monolith Soft owns both games's music, they'll have to go to two different composers for the rights, which likely means they'll just pick one.If we're lucky enough we'll get Xenoblade X music through Rex and Pyra joining Smash
Ngl, I can easily see KOS-MOS getting Mii Costumed next if my prediction that Rex is next ends up happening. Reimu could potentially get a sort-of Sans treatment. Standard Mii Costume, and a music track. Or not even that.
What if we get Monster Hunter and Tales get spirit events too?
Spyro is screwed anyway thanks to Japan disliking how Spyro 1 and 2 were changed.
Add Doom and Crash Bandicoot spirit events too and the results would not be pretty.
What does Activision have anything to do with Disney?Yeah, that’s definitely not the reason. If he’s not in, it’s because negotiations went sour. There’s a lot of rumors that indicate Nintendo atleast tried to get Sora in.
It’s sad that we’re probably missing out on both Sora & Crash because of their owners being buttheads.
That would devastate the King Boo support thread, and myself
He's saying both companies are buttheads, and because of their butthead behavior, that would interfere with characters owned by them joining Smash.
It's alright. Scorpion would be kind of cool, Shadow wouldn't be too bad and I suppose Elma could be fun if she relied on using her guns and ditched the swords. If she uses her swords primarily then meh...
Rex & Pyra are kind of eh for me, Crash Bandicoot would be great and Eggman would be pretty cool to see.
What has Activision done that makes them comparable to Disney though?
