Speaking of Piranha Plant...
Yes, I nearly fainted when I heard of that!!!
Yeah, and Sakurai is making this game, World of Light is base on Smash Bros Ultimate lore...Only people who misconstrue and exaggerate his feats rate him so highly.
Even going with the logic that he escapes because the Warp Star travels at warp speed while the beams are travelling at the speed of light (which they definitely weren't), there are still other characters who had means of surviving.
Off the top of my head:
: He legit repelled the beams in the trailer itself, the only reason he gets hit is because he randomly loses his footing. Repelling those beams is also consistent with what we already know of Breath of the Wild Link from that game, because it's canon that Link can repel ridiculous amounts of force such as the Guardian beams with even just a pot lid. So Link getting hit was just an arbitrary animation choice. He wouldn't have escaped, but he wouldn't have needed to, since not all of the beams were targeting him and there was a finite amount of them.
Also like I mentioned for Rosalina, Kirby himself should have at least been able to take a couple of more characters with him.
So yeah it's just completely arbitrary Sakurai bias that Kirby is the only one.
I never said it wouldn't Sora lol, I just want to tell you you should take leaks with a grain of salt... and any Square Enix character is possible at this point.
If you buy it and register on My Nintendo before a specific date (in January, can't remember off the top of my head), you get him for free.
Got you. I'm gonna deadass main Piranha Plant if he doesn't stop being good. The only thing that seems to be bad about him is his ground speed.
Top 10 characters who could defeat Thanos in seconds.
They already said Piranha is a free or a limited time character... all you have to do is buy the game and wait for the date to come.
Yeah or just download the game on eshop...
A reminder that even Sakurai thought there were a bit too many Fire Emblem characters. Corrin got in because the rest of the Smash team wanted them, alongside the fact that it may have been the only opportunity for Corrin to get in while they were still relevant. Chrom got in because just about everybody frickin' wanted him, especially when he was getting the brunt of the meme stick.
I will inevitably get it I think. However, I may hold off until I try out the online play. The modes look great for online but that means nothing if it plays like a laggy slideshow. And I don't want another Dissidia NT situation, where I go all in on the game and get disappointed by the bad online infrastructure, and the single-player is too shallow to play for that long.
I'm buying it as soon as I get the game because I'm a fanboy who wants access to as much Smash content as possible. Even if there's a character announced that I personally don't have any attachment to or doesn't look that fun to me I still want to give them a fair shot.
I will at least. Smash is one of the few games I have to have every character even if I don't care for some of the new characters.
I really wouldn't call World of Light shallow, that thing looks like it goes really deep, and that's not even accounting character-specific Classic Modes and(hopefully) the return of Stadium modes.
I’m getting it cause it’s more Smash. Even if it’s a character like Bayonetta who I literally never play.
I want a full roster.
I will. One because I want a full roster in general. Two because I already got the majority of my most likely wanted characters, so I'm fine with whatever characters they throw at me by now.
Pit has been through worse tbf...but atleast it shows Palutena would rather die knowing Pit (and Pittoo aswell) is alive than to let him die and live knowing she could’ve done something
Palutena was probably unrestricted in Uprising and was given the simple “can’t do this cause game” reason just cause
I’m still trying to process Shadow (and Skull Kid) not being playable
If I get the game, I probably will to get a full roster but Id be less wanting to do it if it wasnt someone I really wanted
Yes, but then again, Lucina and Robin are still the case... and also Roy, and yes of course Sakurai takes popularity into consideration and also from the Smash team, Sakurai has express his fond with FE series, heck in FE 25th anniversary book there's a sole interview column for Sakurai because not only he is a FE fan, he (And Melee team) was the one popularized FE in the west.
Spinoffs or not, Sora is still on the console.
To be fair petey is also technically in since he protects his child for their final smash
I plan on doing it if I can land that absentee ballot clerk job. Same thing with Soulcalibur 6. If I rightly recall, I spent nearly $50 on Smash 4 DLC.
This reminds me that Smash Ultimate got to have a special opening cutscene like Melee.
I did being a bit more a stretch there where FF VII is coming to Switch. So hey, you can't mention Cloud anymore on that lol.
You can't say for sure if Disney doesn't really care or not... like I said, I wouldn't be surprised if they announced KH game on Switch and then confirm Sora in Smash. Otherwise, any character from Square Enix has equally safe bet if we ignore all those leaks and rumors.
I don't like that they're selling the thing without having announced what's going to be in it (I could go on but I'm not really in the mood to rant about screwy DLC practices right now)... but at the same time I want to have the full roster so that I can try everyone out, so I'll probably end up buying it anyway. So much for sticking to my principles. :p
That wasn't really what I meant to imply, though I'm not fully sold on Ultimate's single-player right now. I just meant Dissidia NT had a shallow single-player, so even though I quite enjoy the gameplay, the online was crap and the single-player was too short and repetitive to make up for it. I spent €50 on the game. €30 on the Season Pass, and while I got other benefits from it, I bought a year of PS Plus when I got the game so I could play online. It didn't feel worth that money.
