Funny thing is, there isn't a Fandom Rivalry entry on either NASB nor MVS' page for each other. They're both considered Friendly Fandoms instead. I just wish it was a little friendlier.Yeah. Don't let some random guy on TV Tropes be justified on putting "Fandom Rivalry" on the YMMV page. That's like, the worst trope in the whole site.
I've definitely seen some MVS fans who insist on ****ting on NASB at every opportunity. They're few and far between in my experience, but rest assured they are VERY obnoxious to deal with.I feel like being angry at MVS for fandom's crappy behaviour (not that I've actually seen any of that. Like. At all.) is kinda silly. I'm a fan of plenty of things that have sucky fandoms. For what it's worth the two dev teams have been nothing but supportive to each other.
This isn't me saying you have to care about MVS ethier BTW. Reasons like the microtransactions or not caring about the roster are valid. But turning this into some kind of weird fandom war is doing noone any good.
Fandom Rivalries DO happen, even if not every member is involved.Yeah. Don't let some random guy on TV Tropes be justified on putting "Fandom Rivalry" on the YMMV page. That's like, the worst trope in the whole site.
True, one plus to MVS being much more successful is that it'd attract people unaware of any controversy over NASB's lack of content at launch.But yeah, not worth smearing the entire fandom over. Most of 'em are just trying to enjoy their game and probably don't even care about ours.
Oh I definitely don't dobut they exist. Every game will have its toxic defnders like that hell, smash brothers itself is pretty bad for that. Best just to not let such a niche part of it ruin the fun for everyone else.I've definitely seen some MVS fans who insist on ****ting on NASB at every opportunity.

It probably is harder to find them when they can no longer **** on NASB's lack of items and voices.Oh I definitely don't dobut they exist.

Especially when Steamcharts are a bad metric that are only useful if the game is a PC-exclusive, which NASB is not.It probably is harder to find them when they can no longer **** on NASB's lack of items and voices.
On the other hand, the games' playercounts are still enough ammunition for some people to continue ****ting on NASB.
People obsessed with calling every game that isn't Fortnite dead don't bother checking playercounts on other platforms. Most likely because they can't.Especially when Steamcharts are a bad metric that are only useful if the game is a PC-exclusive, which NASB is not.
Pretty much. I would only call NASB "dead" when the developers pull the plug on the game, end all post-launch updates, and straight up abandon it. Although in that situation NASB won't truly die because as shown with Kart Racers a sequel will surely be on the way.People obsessed with calling every game that isn't Fortnite dead don't bother checking playercounts on other platforms. Most likely because they can't.
I personally blame Twitch for the term's popularity. A lot of people seem to use its front page to determine which games they're allowed to like, so when a game slips off of it, it's officially "lame" and "cringe" and bla bla bla.The term "dead game" is meaningless. It means less and less as the Internet means there are more communities for games.
There are even active playerbases for games, mainly MMO's and Shooters, that have had their severs officially shut down. So even being "killed" doesn't matter as much anymore.
I feel NASB did live up to the hype, but a lot of that hype was coming from the wrong audience - people unfamiliar with competitive platform fighters, and people unfamiliar with the current state of the Nickelodeon brand. (especailly within crossovers)NASB was just a classic example of an overhyped game.
I don't think Hugh's coming until after the EVO side event on August 5-6.Although I believe that Hugh is coming within the next week or two, and with him we'll get crossplay and a lot of changes and fixes. So many in fact that the patch notes has been said to be 26 pages long.

easy for you to say, I can’t find anyone wanting to talk about chibi-roboThe term "dead game" is meaningless. It means less and less as the Internet means there are more communities for games.
I think "failed to meet impossible expectations while simultaneously failing to meet certain obvious expectations due to crunch and budget" is a better way to put it. I know it's not worth bringing up MVS in here but while I think that game will always have a healthy future and large fanbase (for now anyways.....), NASB has had my heart from the start and no naysayer is gonna change thatNASB was just a classic example of an overhyped game.
Technically GameMill not giving them enough funds isn't about apathy. It's about the company being a budget publisher in the first place.GameMill who never had that much hope in the project in the first place.
It didn't help that they revealed it right in the middle of the period between Kazuya and Sora's reveals, which was a spot where Smash hype was an all time high.I feel NASB did live up to the hype, but a lot of that hype was coming from the wrong audience - people unfamiliar with competitive platform fighters, and people unfamiliar with the current state of the Nickelodeon brand.

speak for yourself. dread is the word i'd useIt didn't help that they revealed it right in the middle of the period between Kazuya and Sora's reveals, which was a spot where Smash hype was an all time high.
A HUGHge missed opportunity, if you will! xDI'm gonna say it again.
If Mark DeCarlo in character as Hugh isn't the narrator of the Character Showcase, that is going to be a huuuuge missed opportunity.
Straight from the duck's mouth:It seems that Hugh might come on August 5th

It's evo week and this is proablly gonna be the first EVO in a bit with reveals attached. They proablly wanted to get in while all eyes where there.So Hugh may not be releasing this week after all, we're just getting a preview of him?
The previews have always come on the day of the character's release. This was the case for Garfield, Shredder, and Jenny. I don't know why they would change it now, unless this patch is indeed the patch that adds crossplay.So Hugh may not be releasing this week after all, we're just getting a preview of him?
