Just wanted to point out that because we let Pearl win the final Splatfest in Splatoon 2, the whole city of Inkopolis got destroyed.
would you rather everyone be brainwashed slaves with surveillance everywhere? just sayin', thats what woulda happened if Order won
i can't believe splatoon 2 actually turned out to be deep social commentary on how society allows awful people to step into positions of influence over the general populace

It was just a joke, a harmless joke, a jab at all the dumb theories I saw posted all the time.


I jokingly suggested one night, "Hey, since the Fighter Pass 2 logo is on fire, maybe everyone uses fire in some way?"

I’m gonna blow your mind... Fighters Pass 1 also works for the fire theory

Since Pyra and Mythra are main characters. The protagonist first rule hasn't been broken right?

ARMS doesn't count since everyone is the protagonist.
ARMS already broke it whether you like it or not.

But if you insist, Robin and Lucina broke it already, but you may argue that Marth is the original protagonist, so that doesn't count, to which I respond that Shulk is the original Xenoblade protagonist, which would put him in the same vein as Marth, thus Pyra didn't break the rule either.

Xenoblade 2 fans, it's time for you to present some sweet music that Pyra/Mythra could come with. I want to see some sugestions.
if Elma really is donezo, just rip the bandaid off and give me the X music i've wanted since base

if an Elma mii is absent, there's no X music AND they say more fighters in development, though... that may give me hope for Elma yet...but not holding my breath

Just getting Pyra would've been bad enough, but wasting the stance change gimmick on her? When they already have a unique mechanic to pull from in their own game?

Over all, I'm...content! Still not huge on XC2 but Pyra and Mythra look really fun, and lots of my friends are really happy about this, so that's nice.

Also maybe it was just me, but the voice direction seemed a bit better here than in XC2. I wonder if it was the same dubbing studio.

Yes.
I'm just OK with them. I didn't play Xeno2 so I'm not very into it and I already fullfilled my craziest dreams with Banjo-Kazooie and Min Min, anything more is just more joy. I know people who wanted them so if they are happy I'm happy too.
Mostly satisfied with the cast and more female reps are better than OK.

In all seriousness though, Pyrha being chosen over Rex does seem to heavily imply that costumes released after the game's release will not be upgraded to playable fighters. This likely extends to AT's as well.

Well Xenoblade Chronicles's team thought that Rex's "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA-ya!" was such a good voice clip that they decided to use it multiple times in the same scene so it's probably not that high a bar. lol

Bruh EVERY Character in ARMS is considered the Main Character, and Pyra/Mythra are still Main Characters.

I'm sure it was literally just that Rex was a DLC Mii Costume and wasn't allowed.
The unfortunate truth is that this is most likely accurate. Min Min had the excuse of winning the fan vote in the online ARMS tournament, but Rex has no excuse to be overshadowed.

Might as well listen to the whole soundtrack because all of it is a masterpiece but sticking to just battle themes only, I hope we get these two at least:

It’s not too surprising Rex isn’t the focus here. Like yeah it’s unexpected, but all the movesets I’ve seen for him or made myself weren’t really satisfactory when it came to the question of, “How do you have both Rex and Pyra on the screen at the same time while remaining faithful to the original game?”. Like if Pyra is in the background it’s nigh impossible to recreate the distance part of affinity, and if she’s in the foreground getting hit that doesn’t jive with the combat or make for a fun character either. I’m fairly sure the Sakurai presents will say something to this effect, but as a Rex, Pyra, and Xenoblade 2 fan I couldn’t be happier right now. Tbh my voice still hurts from my 4 minutes of high-pitch screaming during the reveal.
