Dude. You literally hear the skin being ripped away from Joker's face as blood spews out of it when activating Arsene for the first time.
It's still presented in a stylized and cartoony way.
...The entire opening act of Metroid Prime 3 is you going around preventing people from dying while the ship you're on is under siege. You constantly can see people getting killed on screen and in cutscenes, including watching guys get sucked out into the vacuum of space, run over by aircraft/trains, or impaled by melee weapons. There's even an act later on where you fight directly alongside with some troopers, and even get a game over if enough of them don't survive.
...I don't think cartoony means what you think it means.
There’s also Ridley’s character and some other dark stuff in official manga including some Pokémon stuff (though this may just be TPC tbh). They also support Bayonetta a lot and I don’t see how there’s anything cartoony or slapstick about that.
There you go, then. Shot yourself in the foot by acknowledging this.
I haven't ignored it. Ridley's violence is EXTREMELY cartoonish. I've already stated this.
Which I concede is too much for Smash, and I wish that they'd remove it. I consider it the exception that proves the rule.
Okay in that case I'm giving the late game spoiler without context.
I just find it really weird that you, a non-fan, is telling actual fans what's acceptable for fans of certain characters. I mean, sounds kind of pedantic if you ask me - and honestly I wonder why you're on this thread if you feel like you're unmistakably in the right and aren't willing to accept any arguments to the contrary.
Oooo, little man getting feisty trying to act big and mature.
Not insulting the intelligence of others and being a big meanie at all.Aw yeah dude, Ridley eating Samus' parents wasn't realistic at all.
Mods about to demolish this man in 5 when they remember that these threads exist.
It means exactly what I think it means.
Ridley is cartoony.
Without context, this means nothing to me.
There's no fun in being right if I can't show off.
Aw yeah dude, that one scene that's never shown in any of the games at all! Epic point! You really got me on that one dude!
In fairness, this is never actually shown in the game or the manga.
And the manga's canonicity is disputed.
In fairness, I too imagine them being put into a pot of soup stirred by a witch in such cartoony fashion.
Smash considers it canon through Palutena.
Ladies and gentlemen, nothing else to say!
And why should I care?
Ridley impales people and has an art style closer to “realistic” than “cartoony.”
Dude, I gave you an example of very realistic bloody violence in Persona 5 without context, but giving the context would get you upset about spoilers. It's ridiculous. I wouldn't even be able to post the scene I'm talking about without getting infracted.
Being oblivious doesn't mean you're being right. Means you're being a **** bro.
He doesn't impale people realistically. He LOOKS realistic, but that doesn't mean he acts realistic.
I don't care about the Pokémon manga at all. It's not canon and it doesn't matter. Only weebs know about it anyway.
I would, if it's presented in a cartoonish way. And it is.
They're stylized. They're not realistic. It's not gonna traumatize a 10 year old.
I only asked what "official manga" he meant, because he wasn't being clear about whether he was talking about Metroid or Pokémon.Being oblivious doesn't mean you're being right. Means you're being a **** bro.
Show me how to impale people realistically with a sharp object.
The same thing could be said about Doomguy
I just have no reason to take your word for it, and I've already explained to you (based on your description of the event) that it's not enough for me. It doesn't tick enough boxes. Realistic violence isn't enough if the game itself isn't themed around it.
For starters, it involves a lot of blood and a lot of screaming. Neither of which Ridley's impalings exhibit.
Nope. Not even close.
yeah cause it's E10+ that's not a shocker.
He stabs his tail straight through them.
Man, Call of Duty fell off the map to be forgotten like this.
That's what happens when you use IIII instead of IV.
I don’t know if it’s to the point of other games, but yeah you have a point. I played it with my younger bro and it seemed fine, though that was just the first few Black Ops games. My younger bro was the one that actually wanted to play, it doesn’t really interest me much but multiplayer is fun.
Fatal Frame is in the game as an assist trophy. Obviously Nintendo published that title on the Wii U, but Koei Tecmo still got the credit in Smash Ultimate, so there has been some back and forth.
I'm not trolling.
Doesn't matter. It's not violent enough. There's no blood, there's no screaming. It might as well just be clipping through him.
Thanks for proving me right.
That's not Doomguy.
Nothing has proven you right whatsoever. Smash is E10+, that's common knowledge. There are 3 M-Rated characters so far that have been toned down, and you're arguing Doomguy cannot be done the same.
It's a monster from Doomguy of which he kills. Look at all that realism.
Disgusting.
We're not talking about it. The monsters can be as unrealistic as they want, because they're not what I'm talking about.
That is correct. And he can't.
So once Doomguy gets in Smash, can you give 5 bucks for the DLC?
You clearly don't want to use it.
Looks like he's been banned anyways.
I'm in the middle of putting together a preliminary Edelgard moveset. Once Three Houses comes out and I can flesh it out more, I'll share it here.
Dunno, maybe the Home Run Contest?
