Hey. Blame Nintendo for giving him the idea.
"him"
"Andrea" - Gender: Female

I'd say "how many men do you know named 'Andrea'?", but then I remembered Andrea Bocelli exists.

Not as clear cut as with Cutie Gwen Cutie Gwen . :laugh:

In other news, I got some news via email.

Good news: Royal Mail has the Smash Bros. Switch (+Mario Odyssey) I ordered on Friday and there's a 97% chance that I'll get it today.
Bad news: I'm going to have to stay up 'late' to pick it up from the Mailman because I'm a vampire chronic Night Owl.

Buddy. I've long given up on figuring out who's what gender.
I only know a few because someone else had gotten it wrong, or they're really obvious.
"Really obvious"

Like having their name in their username. ;)

Heh.

Y'know, I was thinking about this the other day with the whole username origin talk.

Blood Raven's female.

Pretty certain this wasn't going through my head at the time, but it's funny to look back on.

Why though, most links are boring.
A little late to this discussion, I think it's because Link often has just enough personality show through to be charming while still being a silent protagonist so people can get into the role of the character.

Characters aren't soley defined by how deep their characterization is or how interesting their backstories are. Otherwise the likes of Mickey Mouse and Mario wouldn't be some of the most recognized characters of all time. Sometimes people just like characters because they're cool or fun.

In Link's case I feel in some games he has a ton of personality and charm without saying a single word, in others not so much.

WW, SS and MM showcase how charming he can be, especially Wind Waker. Ocarina of Time was the worst offender with how wooden Link was portrayed there, but that was the first 3D game and Nintendo, for as much as they got right, were still experimenting and finding their footing. Twilight Princess is another where I feel he's kinda dull and BotW is a bit of a mixed bag for me.

If you unlock a character then exit the game and re enter the 10 minute timer is apparently reset so you can unlock characters faster.

You say that but for some ****ing reason there have been many times idiots go "Hm, people call that person Gwen, a name exclusively used for girls and their username is Gwen. Imma call them a 'he', that sounds right"

Gwen is short for Gwennyson, obviously.

I must be really tired, at first I read that as "Being a dude using female pronouns is sooo dumb."

Not only are you called "Gwen", have your username as "Gwen", but the tag below your PFP is "Lovely Warrior".

Some people are dumb.

Like really dumb.

tbf the Lovely Warrior part was only added when I had a Cutie Honey avi because that's the way she introduces herself but all my other goddamn usernames had GWEN there. Even on Discord this **** happened a lot with people defending their right to call me 'he' instead of going "Oh my bad"

XD It's alright, I am used to that little confusion. Not just here, also on DA. Some people would think I am Italian male because Andrea is used for both genders there, and because they also go with male because I have a male character all over my profile (Ridley, Rayquaza ( l know, genderless, but I take it as male) and Shay Cormac to name a few). I think someone told me once that discovering I am a female was as shocking as discovering Samus was one in the first Metroid. XD It got me.

X3 Also, congrats!

I knew once I saw the LiveLeak watermark that this wouldn't end well.
There was a problem fetching the tweet
It was as if millions of shelves screamed out in terror, and were suddenly silenced...

Speaking of Ridley...

I wanted to see the original Ridley design in not-8-bit form, so I went to Wikitroid.

In the Gallery, I found this:

What an adorable little Murder Machine. <3

Apparently it's artwork from the original Metroid's Japanese guide book.

And thus we see the real reason Ridley is playable so we don't have this as a Spirit

:ultridley: "I'll burn down your village and eat your parents! But don't I look cute doing it?"
:ultzss: *death glare*
:ultridley: "S'what I do."

More seriously, the Captain N comic design is actually weirdly faithful to Ridley's original design.

And then there's the cartoon version. What the hell happened?

Puberty happened. As we all know, puberty sucks. Which is why I'm looking forward to my second puberty

X3 Yis, Chibi Rids is pure and precious...so is the actual Rids tho, that sleepin' animation melted my heart. XD In fact, a friend got an idea and I want to make a dialog and comic about it.

I know the stereotype is basically that /r/fireemblem is a bunch of prudes while /r/xenoblade_chronicles tends to be more, let's say, "frisky," but the general difference in reactions between the two subs with the whole Camilla/Mythra censorship thing is honestly hilarious.

A good portion of the Xenoblade sub is in full-on rage mode while most of the Fire Emblem sub is either appreciative of the change or ****posting Gamers Rise Up memes.
Um yeah, and I can see why.

On Twitter though, I don't see any rage but rather some "alternate" censorship where I think Nintendo should step up their game a bit if they really want to censor Mythra:
There was a problem fetching the tweet

Or at least balance it out:
Well then...good for those Camilla change supporters and shame on those who don’t like new Mythra
Why so? And you are seeing one here lol, I am obviously not a fan of the Mythra spirit in Smash Ultimate.
This is one of the reason why I never want Smash to be rated for E10+, they could have go with T rating like Brawl, but unfortunately that isn't the case. Moreover and yes, this is a really bad speculation... and you can even call this me just joking but, can't believe they spend some of the time on altering these when they can save these time to work on more playable characters...

Also, Corrin has it too it seems:
There was a problem fetching the tweet

It begins:
Yep...
There was a problem fetching the tweet
Where is the rage again? lol

Okay, now check this out:

Best news of all time.

/s.
The best meme of 2018

Did surgery on a grape.

/s... sort of.
...Holy ****, I need glasses.

I didn't realized they covered Mythra boobs window too.

Tho, since normally, I find Mythra boobs window to be the most distracting part of her design, I suppose it mean that they did a good job on that part.
I have no opinion on her original design though. I personally think it really isn't good when designs are being altered just for sake of fitting the rating.

But hey, at least this isn't Xenoblade, or backin the Wii U/3DS days where some censorship were just ridiculous. Now it's Sony who is doing censorship out of border... wow.

Female Corrin has been censored since her Smash debut though, so that ain’t new
His model is literally the same as the one next to Robin...
No wonder it looked so unpolished...
This means we need another Chrom
