Not really. Wearing something like that in the desert is just asking for a sunburn.
And there's already a superior Pyra design out there. It's called Minerva from Fire Emblem Marth's Games DS.There already is a superior XC2 redesign out there, it's called the Mythra spirit in Smash Bros.
Hey, that design only needed him saying "My oiled abs quiver at your voice!" and we'd go full anime.
Someone really loved gearpunk too much.
Well I find him to be quite useful if it makes you feel any better. He's a heck of a lot better than Percival since Rex's other Blades are Pyra/Mythra and Roc.Hey don’t be hating on my JoJo fish boi
Looking into it, I've seen a claim that Roc is referred to using male pronouns but I couldn't find any examples of this. They all just used his name. Roc does seem to be genderless in-universe, and hilariously, his gender is "4" according to the game's files.
ARMS. Spring Man and Springtron are the only boring ones, and that's more of a biproduct of the design goal of making him the basic and easy to understand one.
I'm pretty sure her outfit's a real thing in Arabic countries with horniness added
Yeah. I think it's a dancing outfit though (which is why Olivia wears something similar even though she's not from the same place).
I was being harsh. Yes, lots of anime use that expression, but it looks cheap when overlaid on 3d cg, and it's annoying when super deformed art is used in anime that takes itself seriously. I'm not interested in playing Xenoblade Chronicles 2 if this is an indication of the tone of the game.
Paper Mario pls.
Not a specific prediction, but I'm reminded of the character that Nintendo used to show off the Smash Ballot during the Direct that revealed it.
Don't underestimate the big fans of Meow Meow Mario
ever hear of divekick? the indie made fighting game that the fighting game community had a fieldday with years back? no, fighting games do not have to be complex nor do they need to give you multiple mechanics.
honestly, those are all probably april fools day things. It took me until now to realize it lol.
Jefailey for smash
As #COVID19 ravages the world, thousands of people in China have been lured by the virtual escape offered by the recently released Nintendo Switch game Animal Crossing: New Horizons.https://t.co/tbtMwNhdJZ
— Sixth Tone (@SixthTone) March 31, 2020
*[Do take this figure with a grain of salt, but needless to say AC's doing really well regardless.]While sales figures for China aren’t available, tens of thousands of Animal Crossing: New Horizons game cartridges have been sold on e-commerce platform Taobao, and many more have undoubtedly been purchased from the Nintendo Game Store and downloaded directly onto Switch consoles.
On Chinese microblogging platform Weibo, an Animal Crossing: New Horizons hashtag has been viewed over 820 million times*, with many young people lamenting that they feel like the last ones on Earth who haven’t bought the game.
“Everyone was playing it, so I wanted to see how good it is,” says Li Yachao, a 34-year-old Beijing-based office clerk who purchased the game three days ago. Li tells Sixth Tone that many of her friends bought a Nintendo Switch just to play Animal Crossing.
A unique feature of the game is the ability to import user-generated digital graphics into one’s personalized island. Within days, some gamers in China had painted their islands a figurative shade of red, adding portraits of communist icons like Karl Marx and Chairman Mao, as well as loud propaganda posters. Consistent with the current zeitgeist, some players have added disease control checkpoints and decontamination areas, or signs in Chinese instructing characters to “please wash your hands.”

Players have outfitted their virtual residences with traditional Chinese decor and furniture, and dressed their in-game characters with hanfu and fancy outfits from China’s most popular period dramas. Widely shared screenshots show one island with huge QR codes printed across them for sending the player money via Alipay or WeChat [both being ubiqoutous money-sending mobile apps], while another island featured realistic-looking fruit business advertisements.
seeing members of the smash community unironically try to exclude other games from the category of '"fighting game" is a new low. even for this thread.
Who tried to unironically argue that Lara Croft wasn't iconic lmao
He's not changing design, he's just have part of the suit removed because I can only assume that wearing the entire thing would retain a lot of heat and be uncomfortable for a long period of time. For Rex salvaging his is entire life, so he keep part of the diving suit on so he can salvage where ever he go without needing to take a long time to gear up.
To be fair it was mostly one user, just a particularly opinionated one.
Na, it's really tame when compare to others games. Sure there as some blades with lewd designs, but the sexualisation is very minimal. Heck, they added swimsuit to the game for each character as DLC they're not the obvious fan service outfits like many other JRPGs have.
Repeat my post about the in-world reasoning for a design not making it good.
I always thought Cat Mario was used so that Nintendo couldn’t be accused of showing bias towards one particular character or series. If they chose someone actually popular or noteworthy it might have caused people to think they had already chosen the character in advance, or that they were trying to sway fans to vote for that character. No one took Meow Meow Mario seriously, which seemed intentional.
If we get another Mario character, it won't be because of these re-releases.
AC is already huge, and with the current situation affecting things, the numbers it's going to move will be terrifying.
If you consider 2 to be tame, then I honestly don't want to know what you consider extreme in terms of sexualization.
Fighting game rep -- but not FGC rep. Fighting game is a genre, FGC is an audience to appeal to, which an ARMS character doesn't. I'm not worried about the ARMS rep 'taking up the fighting game slot' because I'm 100% certain Nintendo knows the people who play ARMS are not the same audience who play GG/Tekken/etc.
Something like Senran Kagura, I'm guessing.
theres a cost to everything. sure everyone is here. but not everyone is complete (or functional).
That's the logic I'm following. Waluigi and Toad are popular requests, but not big enough for Nintendo to advertise the remasters.
I’ve seen things even MORE risqué than even Senran Kagura. Gal Gun, Criminal Girls... shudder
*cough cough* koopalings *cough cough cough*
or really related to any of those mario games enough...
I would absolutely love that
Actual H-games don’t count
