Well, yeah. Before this, it was more or less on a monthly or bi-weekly basis. Now we're in August and they've already burned through five of them this month.
I love the way they draw the eyes, this sort of art style is genuinely what i strive for in my own drawings.Hmm, maybe they're speeding up cuz they're trying to reach a certain date with a number?
I saw this art and the style is sooo cute.
I barely played crash games, so I don't have any attachment to the character, but there's stil 5 slots left for dlc XD so you can have quite a few characters to root for ;p
It's cool that she's up there, but I don't really like polls that are centralized around a fanbase XD Of course geno would be in the top because of it. I'm surprised Crash is so high, but I guess there being a new crash game got into people's awareness.
Neither does any speculation
Crash has been pretty popular as of late. His main draw seems to be his iconic status from the console war era, which is admittedly a pretty good thing to have going for you.
I do think Crash is iconic. I just never really got into those games. If he makes it in, I'll understand, and I'm sure quite a few people will like it, but personally I'd rather see someone else get in ;p
Actually, WayForward didn't straight up say "Shantae isn't in Smash".
I think some research is needed for this. To the time machine!
That you got to remix and write some songs for smash?

I’m not ..... and I’m still not convinced

He said "I wouldn't get your hopes up" when asked about Banjo & Kazooie on Twitter. I don't have a link to the tweet right now but someone's bound to track it down.
Ask and you shall receive:
I wouldn't hold my breath if I were you .......

Yeah, that's the one. Don't know what this means for us though.
Even without all the Smash stuff, the way they've been going at it with the milestones is weird. A bunch of games are arbitrarily skipped over for no reason (like Adventure Time and the goddamn Batman: The Brave & The Bold game, and even WF IPs aren't exempted, as Mighty Milky Way can attest), and after pacing themselves for months at a time, they suddenly go on fast-forward on August, even though we haven't even entered the last quarter of their anniversary year. Now we're almost out of recent games in the countdown, and we're still 8 away from the Big 30.
All we have been saying really, is that WayForward hasn't straight up said "No",
Feels like they’re literally just winging it, putting one up whenever they feel like it or get an idea for one. The Shantae milestones were kinda here and there too, you’d think they would have begun the whole thing with their flagship franchise. Definitely gives the vibes of it not being anything serious or much thought put into it. They’ve come out quite irregularly so even though it now feels like the pace is up, I wouldn’t be surprised if the next milestone comes in like, a month or two, if they really want just 8 more for the rest of the year.
I wish I could say the same. But I feel like if Shantae doesn't get promoted into a playable character, than they ain't going to say anything else about the Shantae and Risky Spirits or mention Shantae in Smash. I feel like those Spirits are all we are getting if she isn't in the DLC lineup. I think Shantae has a decent chance though since she did really well in the Smash Ballot years ago.
That's basically and mainly what I'm expecting at this stage. If nothing happens by the end of this countdown, then this whole thing really should have been organized better than randomly shunting the recent games before the final part of the countdown for no reason other than promoting one of their hundreds of special sales.
I'm just saying that it's weird to act this way even if it doesn't mean anything for her chances, is all. They could at least say that it's a shame she's not playable, or at the very least say she was never in the cards but hoping she might become playable someday. Even just putting it in the milestones would be enough.Yeah no it's definitely strange not to mention anything at all. But it's the only thing we have going, besides the usual stuff (more popularity and games on switch), so it's not like I put her chances as super high or anything, just open to it being possible
Oh. Yeah if she doesn't have anything else in smash, it's very very strange. Last time this happened though (before the spirit reveal), I was saying how mad I'd be at them if there was nothing and they went silent for nothing, lol. I was both disappointed and happy that she made it as a spirit because a part of me didn't think she really could make it in, but another wanted to believe.
, the spirit still had them in an NDA. So for me that's good enough to dream lol. Doesn't matter if she doesn't make it in, I just want a reason to have some openness to it being possible she's in as a fighter.
