What do you all think of my holiday avatar? Tell me.

It's ironic how the Versus series has had Jill, Chris, Wesker, and Nemesis, and yet sometimes when I see discussion of Resident Evil characters in Smash, Leon is considered a frontrunner at least partially due to his Nintendo ties (RE4 being the only mainline RE to have an initial Nintendo release).
Well, he was considered for Tatsunoko vs Capcom's roster. But unfortunately he couldn't make the cut (like Devil May Cry 4's Nero).

I still want Leon in MvC damn it! I don't care if he's far too similar to Chris.

Honestly, I'll take Chris over Leon any day of the week.

I personally feel UMVC3's Resident Evil roster was pretty darn perfect.

Just give Jill a new moveset and we're good.

There's something to be said about how diverse your roster is when you include a second Spider-Man. :p

Why not both Leon AND Chris? I'm sure there's enough room for three handsome Resident Evil hunks in the MvC4 roster (Sorry Nemesis. But you need a better haircut.).

And fwiw seems likely we'll get a Pokken port if Ninty is smart about capitalizing off the resurgence of Pokemania from this year.

No, we seriously do not want to make Chris x Leon a thing...

Wesker x Chris was bad enough.

I should trust my better judgement and not click on things I know I'm not going to appreciate reading but noooo I have to be an idiot don't I? Either that or a masochist.

I feel that those that like Sonic games and are over the age of 13 should be on a federal list, and watched by the government.
Well

That's definitely helpful for my self-esteem, isn't it

People have been pointing out that all the remaining Stones are of Pokemon you can find in Sinnoh.

Draw your own conclusions from there.
I just did the final trial.
Well that was anti climactic to an extent, while the dungeon was overall challenging, the trial was pretty much the bare minimum.

And Totem Kommo-o was a joke, Mimikyu one shot it with Play Rough and didn't lose HP


True, but these belong to starters and legendaries, which are kinda weird overall (though SM did get Primals and the Kanto trio stones).

...Not sure what to say about Audino however.

It was one of those Pokemon that only popped up if you had Ruby inserted in.

...I forgot that weird time where DS games got creative with the GBA slot.

The Sonic fanbase is fuelled by chilli dogs, nostalgia, and truly horrifying fan art, but every once in a while there's a pretty decent Sonic game.

Also the Sonic twitter is ****ing top notch.

But I can see why the series and the fanbase are generally looked upon as they are. Not accounting for individual statements like that one from GAF.

I know somebody who finds zombies hot. That said, I do like Nemesis as a character as is and think he should stay. Jill likewise. I'm not so sure on the other ones, but Wesker I'd keep to. The other ones are more iffy. I don't mind a 4th character at all, but it's hard to say who feels like the better choice.

If anyone's raising a crabrawler

Wait until he's 37 to evolve him

He learns Crabhammer as Crabrawler ONLY.

It's the physical water attack with the most BP and has the same accuracy as Aqua Tail, plus it's got an increased Crit rate

Yes, you caught flaaffy before Volkner's gym fight.

And now you can have two edges for the price of one!


And two awesome bonus Sun and Moon mods:

This is gonna be worth it. The Game Gear games are short, and for some reason, nobody shared the newest videos
John handled his new Lootcrate sponsorship very well imo

Ow the Edge doesn't even begin to describe the first one.

But he's far too cute for me to consider edgy.

Well, I just finished up Final Fantasy XV, for a game I waited 10 years for, I really enjoyed it.

Although I'm really curious about how different Versus XIII and XV would have panned out. They both may have Noctis and the gang as protagonists, Niflheim is still invading Insomnia, but just the beginnings alone are drastically different. Versus XIII involved Noctis trying to escape the city invasion, whereas XV they're not even aware the city was invaded until after, among many other differences. I'd love it if they at least release the script or whatever for the original.

Could you give a spoiler free review? I'm considering getting it as my first FF game

The nostalgia horde is honestly the worst part of it, not for being fans, but for. . .not being fans. They have a tendency to attack the rest of the fandom for daring to like anything past a certain date. They're almost indistinguishable from the people outside the fandom attacking it. Basically identical to Pokemon RBY fans and certain breeds of Melee player save for perhaps being even more bitter and hateful than those.

The fanart's peculiar in that when you look past the blame game it's more of an ecological niche simply taken up by the most popular game or franchise capable of facilitating fan created characters and breaks from reality than an inherent product of Sonic. I've seen several other franchises produce OCs of wildly varying qualities, and fanfiction basically ensures that no franchise is safe from any of the other weirdness either. In a universe where Sonic never existed, the people that make up that portion would simply find the next easiest thing to trace and use that for experimentation, likely Kirby or Yoshi's Island based OCs if within the Smash Bros circle considering how often I've seen them pop up. To note an example of something else fitting the same ecological niche as Sonic on a large scale, I will point to MLP: FiM, which managed to gain a similar if somewhat tamer reputation this decade.

Granted, I haven't been exposed to most of "that side" since it's influence is surprisingly easy to avoid considering it's reputation. It's less Sonic's fault and more just a symptom of human nature considering it's existence innumerable places elsewhere, though.

Sonic Labyrinth looks horrible

I had Sonic 3D blast, but I didn't get very far in it. It just looks boring and isn't fun
