Someone please explain to me how Dragonborn became the popular rumor here? Aside from whatever Fatman said about the character.

People really lost confidence in KOS-MOS quickly and turned to Dragonbron lol.

I mean, same. I easily spend more time on here than actually playing the game - I only really play online with others, and I tend to get too worked up over me doing badly there.

Also heey another German person in here
I mean why get salty over losing in a kids game when you can get salty over the characters people want in a kids game? :v)

It’s probably because of that cacomallow leak?

Even then, it supports Doomguy more so than Dragonborn. And appearently, not linked to Fighter 5 (assuming CacoMallow is even real to begin with).

Also, correct me if i'm wrong but i'm pretty sure Bethesda said in a Sep 2018 interview when asked about Smash Bros that they talked to Nintendo about it. If either Doomguy or Dragonborn were on the Fighters Pass, wouldn't that be breaking the NDA? This is why I believe whatever Bethesda character is coming after the pass if at all.

I know it's huge but it only became a popular rumor in the past month or so which is why i'm curious how it became the frontrunner all of a sudden.

I'm pretty sure this is why. It's also in line with Fatman's "fantasy sword fighter" thing he keeps talking about, so people from and around the Geno thread buy it hook, line, and sinker.
i like how "fantasy sword fighter" is so generic and wide-reaching that it could mean literally anyone and he could claim to be right when it happens

very remarkable

Pardon my ignorance on NDA's but aren't you supposed to totally deny it outright? Like, you're not even allowed to talk about any potential talks for the risk of getting sued?

That Dragonborn fella sure seems like a good choice for a Smash fighter. Even if he isn't in this pass you should make sure you buy The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim® for Nintendo Switch, so you can signal to Nintendo just how much he deserves to be in!

TMS gameplay wise was good, just wished the setting wasn't idols

Literally people rush to a new character if the possibility of another one they don't like, in this case KOS-MOS, seems possible.

In this case, wouldn't saying "No Comment" or "Not at this time" be indicative of an NDA VS "Yes, we talked to Nintendo"? Just saying.

It could always be a case of whatever Bethesda character being talked about like how talks for Ryu Hayabusa were happening in late-2018 from some sources. Basically, Nintendo having a good idea that they were going to do more DLC after the pass and getting more talks with 3rd party companies.

NDA's allow for a lot of different possible responses. You can beat around the bush, you can outright deny it, you can ignore it. They aren't all the same in general. Generally the only thing that's not allowed is directly saying yes. The rest varies quite a bit in how it's done.

If we did get the Dragonborn I’d would be cool if we could get other races and genders as alts besides the generic default Nord dude. Would make them more visually interesting to me at least.

I really like Morrowind so I’d like to play as a Dark Elf alt.

Granted, Bethesda's response to that question was literally "Yep" so it doesn't really inspire confidence of Dragonborn on the pass lol.

I think "No Comment" or "Not at this time" would be indicative of an NDA.

*Shrugs* Because Skyrim's cool?

Its inclusion wouldn't surprise me, and though I've never actually played Skyrim I'd be down for the Dragonborn.

The thing about Dragonborn (and Bethesda in general) is that he could be a Terry situation where they jumped very early in the Switch train and decided to negotiate for a character afterwards.

It’s Toad Howard! (please somebody make a montage of him with a Toad head).

I think that the CacoMallow Leak is more likely to implicate Doomslayer as a playable character.

We have a record of someone literally saying No while under NDA.

Indications don't portray reality. They can comment with a literal No under an NDA just fine. Not every NDA is the same either. Some actually can't go beyond "no comment" too. It depends the literal NDA. There's no "one version is used", basically.

I mean, obviously among the tweets, not all are under an NDA for FP5. Clearly not the case. But one can be. Generally, Leakers like Verge often have an insider that ignores an NDA, which is how we get this information in the first place. So they can often actually have more clear information because there's nothing forcing them to lie(even though it should anyway). Some don't want to keep their mouths shut, if you will. Why on earth NDA's allow for a lot of leeway I can't say, but it is demonstratibly a thing.

Can we please just move from the whole NDA ****? At this point it could mean anything, just because someone lied it doesn't mean everyone is lying as well.

Could someone be lying? Maybe. But its not something we will be able to know until the post reveal, and let's remember, if you count the people that said no before the extension of the dlc was mentioned then it's quite likely that a few developers were telling the truth at least for fighter 5.

Well, I don't know if KOS-MOS is actually villainous, but I'm all in for Dovahkiin to get in, so...


And yes, I really want to see the "Todd ported Skyrim to Smash!" memes.

I’m afraid it won’t. Someone brings up character they think could happen then someone says he can’t be in because NDA and then they argue about NDAs

Sorry

Ok fine. Since Doom Slayer is vastly preferred, I’ll change my post from earlier.

Vergeben said #5 is neither Doomguy nor Geno, so Bethesda's other properties have gotten more attention from the hat video.
