Honestly? The Smash fanbase, mostly SmashFAQs, has made me start to resent and dislike Crono, which isn't right (and it's not even the Crono fans!).
What gets me is the Smash fanbase hypocrisy. We've seen the 'reasons' why they typically don't want some characters and how obnoxious they get saying how these characters shouldn't be added: too irrelevant (used against K Rool), one game character (against Geno), anime swordsman (ANY Fire Emblem character), exiled by owners (Banjo), uses a sword (any sword user, usually at Isaac), only 90s manbabies want him (K Rool and other 90s character), unoriginal/bland moveset (Erdrick), unimportant to gaming (Banjo/Dixie/etc), no personality (Bandana Dee), character type already in game/would be a clone (Megaman (this was the main counter against him, claiming he would be a Samus clone)), its Goku (Goku).
And yet, once Crono is mentioned, all of a sudden those ironclad fan rules go out the window and now Crono is an exciting, deserving and obvious addition to Smash that everyone needs to recognize. Except he combines all the reasons why they DON'T want a character added. They hate anime swordsman FE and Goku the most and he's literally Sword Goku! How can they rip apart Geno, Dixie, Banjo, K Rool, etc for flimsy reasons and then turn around and claim how perfect Crono would be?
I'm trying to not have my opinion on Crono turn as it's not even him or his fanbase but Smashbase being....well....Smashbase. But the hypocrisy is getting annoying.
