Relative to the mountains of salt and hate people had over Bayo and Corrin, Cloud was very well received.
Because it's our thread, of course we're going to champion Geno over other Square characters. Don't be that guy that comes into a fanbase's thread and calls us liars and bad people and unironically expect zero retaliation.
Didn't Midgar get shown as one of the stages in the WoL trailer
You can champion a character without talking crap on others. It's not hard. Not like people are competing for ballot votes these days.
I agree, but it's something that happens all the time. whenever a character could 'take a spot' of another, they get downplayed. Not everyone does it, and it'd be nice if less people did it, and would just promote their character instead of bashing another. I just think it's asking for a lot, considering this is the internet :O
I don't know what you're reading, but just because we like Geno more than other potential characters, and think that Geno has a better shot than other potential characters....That doesn't mean we're all trashing everyone else. You're right, there's a difference, but I don't see that happening here. At least, not on a overarching widespread level.
It's our thread. We can say what we want here. We're not orchestrating raids to go into the Sora/Dragon Quest threads. We're not creating smear campaigns. What's the issue? No, you didn't specifically say bad people but you're implying we're a toxic fanbase because of people making arguments against other Square Enix characters within our own thread. Don't like it? Argue your points or simply go. If you want to talk about things that aren't hard. If it offends you, there's the door. There are literally thousands of other threads to check out here.
Looks like we'll have to wait to see what's really happening. Someone pointed out that all 3rd party mii outfits arent there right now.
PsychoIncarnate
of having Geno and Mallow as a tag team, like Pokemon Trainer. That would be sweet!
Why the huge pictures? It is called SNES Classic. Just refer to it by name.
Talking crap on others characters ?
Talking crap? Can you show me the insults?
This. Am I suppose to go into the Bandana Waddle Dee thread and scold them for not uplifting the other Kirby characters to equal or higher heights? Should I scold the Banjo thread for not ranking Steve higher? Yeah, I do think the one comment about Cloud being poorly received was wrong but at the same time I don't see a collaborative effort to "rewrite history" as if as a fanbase we're like a party bus full of Snidely Whiplash clones eager and ready to make everyone else miserable. Honestly, who thinks like this? Who looks at one comment and thinks "there's a grand conspiracy going on and it's my civic duty to call it out?" "These Geno fans must be stopped for the very future of the Smash community is at stake!"
Yeah that’s really weird how people in the Geno thread are building up his chances compared to other Square charcters lmao go post somewhere else cowboy
The part that gets me the most is that Geno had literally the most obvious Spirit fight of any character in Smash.
This is what gets me. I would figure that Geno would at least be guaranteed to have the costume, spirit, and music, but having only the spirit and nothing else is suspicious more than it is disappointing.
I wasn’t all to active on SmashBoards when Cloud got revealed, so I can’t speak to this site’s reaction, but I saw nothing but positivity and excitement at the time of his reveal. People were surprised and excited for this impossible character in Smash. Again, I wasn’t so active on the boards at the time (of any site other than Reddit maybe), so I don’t know. But I don’t remember much negativity at the time at all. Especially cause he was announced when DLC had no definitive end in sight.
I’m going to pose a different take on Spirits. Sakurai made them out to be representation of all types of characters and series, and his words were something to the effect that “more matchups than ever before were possible” within the Spirits section.
I just wanted to point out that people also thought that being a trophy deconfirmed, so there isn't any reason to think that spirits do deconfirm. I know he described spirits in a way that wasn't for trophies, but Sakurai did say that trophies took a lot of development time, so he decided to make spirits instead. That sounds like a replacement to me
Replacement doesn’t mean 1 to 1 though.
Even if it isn't one to one, it is a replacement regardless, meaning that if the first doesn't deconfirm, then the second doesn't deconfirm
That’s not how it works though... if they’re not one to one, then they’re different things, even if minor in difference and that means different properties for different things.
I'm just saying, people thought that trophies deconfirmed, and look what happened. Even if we didn't know for sure if spirits deconfirmed, there isn't any reason to think that they do
The day before the last smash direct I said it was going to be the final update to the supporter list and I added everyone that followed my instructions in how to become a member of the supporter list.
