Official Smash Ultimate Discussion

Almost one month has passed since release. In retrospect....

  • This is by far the best Smash ever. Like, I don't even know how they will top this.

  • Pretty freakin' good; I have a few qualms over things like internet play, balancing issues, etc.

  • It's ok, but [insert Smash game here] is better.

  • I'd rather play Parcheesi.

I was never super fond of smash wii u compared to other smash games. Smash 3ds was just much better imo. Smash run was a fun mode that was actually replayable. Shame that game seems to have been largely forgotten.
I like to play Smash 3DS just for Smash Run and Rainbow Road alone.

So apparently the character discords are.. ...fun. Can't link Tweets 'cuz cussing, but the Link Discord put one guy in a room where they interviewed him to see if he was "suitable". He just said "LET ME INNNN" until they gave up. Shulk Discord makes you write a full application for similar reasons, and banned not only leaked footage but also spoilers for any of the three Xenoblade games. Power gives some people deluded notions I suppose. :rolleyes: The guy was also complaining that many of the discord servers had names other than the characters names, because they included references he didn't understand, like Colony 9 Recruitment for the Shulk discord Clock Town for Young Link's and Kids from Eagleland for Ness, but I think that's kinda cool.

Meanwhile I'm finding the Falco Discord pretty chill, and I've heard the Ganon and Ike ones are pretty cool too. So how have your experiences, good or bad, with the Discords been?

I'm still disappointed that all of the limited time varieties almost always look better drawn than the normal character art.


A lot of the base character art needs to be updated to match the quality of what came after them.
Mayo is just too powerful.

If you ask me, I think Ultimate outclasses all of the previous Smash titles.

in the last 5 pages we have discussed the concept of art criticism, parental abuse, and yiffing.

This game needs to come out soon before we ****ing lose it

The Varia Samus one is cool too, imo.

Maybe they like Metroid memes a lot, but i don’t remember anything wrong with the place.

This is a keeper.

Anyways, we’re one day away from VGC, and by the looks of it. It sounds like an E3 in December.

Walmart still hasn't sent out a "We've shipped your package!" email yet.

And what's more is they sent a jape one on November 2nd saying the game had shipped and been delivered.

So none of the discords are worth joining because they are run by egotistical nutters. Good to know lol

I don't see where the majority consensus is Erdrick?
I'm hearing a ton of scattered names. I'm hearing they're all basically equal from numerous insiders.
At this point however, Erdrick seems the most likely given how his name alongside Crono's seem to have been heard the most alongside Square Enix's large push to get the series worldwide as of late.

Correct me if I'm wrong but hasn't Squenix never licensed out DQ characters, except Slime I think, to games not developed by them? Or am I wrong?

........Has anyone gotten any emails saying 'Your package has been shipped'?

I'm getting a bit paranoid, since I paid for same day delivery, but nothing.

not to be that guy or to keep egging this on but comments like that are still important to gauge a reaction from an uninformed public.
I'm like studying art crap right now in college so we talk about this **** all the time.

Played what'll probably be my last match of 4 for a good long while at locals today.

Kind of a bittersweet feeling, honestly. Even though it's only four years old at the next installment's release, and even though Ultimate is building on it and perfecting it, I'll miss this game.

There should be a written rule in designing women character outfits.
If your design can still look great in Simon Belmont , is a good design.

Zelda passes with flying colors!

I agree with you. It was tongue in cheek.

I don't care when some is so curt to tell me "this sucks". Possibly the easiest criticism to shrug off. If anyone can't handle a "this sucks" on the internet, they're in for a rough ride. That said I still wouldn't use it to gauge a reaction, since it's so trifling. Unless tons of people were saying it.

I'd be far more crestfallen to have a random hold my hand through my artistic shortcomings, even if they were polite.

But what are you gonna do.

  • Square Enix is getting another character, but no one knows who it is
    • The majority consensus seems to be Erdrick, however
  • Lloyd or Yuri Lowell from the Tales Of series seem likely
  • Steve still exists
  • Rayman is likely underestimated
  • As is Ryu Hayabusa
  • People actually want promotional shill first-party picks
  • DOOM Slayer might actually have a chance
  • A third Capcom or Sega Rep could definitely happen
That's kinda it.
where did half of these claims originate from

Sephiroth is well heard, but Geno is largely agreed to be a red herring. We're seeming to forget that sources other than Panda's exist, and those sources say it's definitely not Geno. Panda's source that heard Geno through water cooler talk is also outdated information (over a month old at this point and nothing else has been heard about him), and supposedly other developments for other SE reps have happened since then.

The fact that all of the information is being released in the Geno thread doesn't help either, as there's inherent bias towards Geno there and people are going to twist Panda's words to make Geno seem likely.

As far as I know, SE has never licensed out DQ characters, but the same could be said for Cloud prior to Sm4sh so that point is moot.

First three are current rumors.
The rest is popular speculation.

Having people clearly biased towards Geno, such as Fatmanonice, also doesn't help with this.

Can you define "Geno is largely agreed to be a red herring"

Who are the people largely agreeing on this?
The people actually discussing it seem to very much disagree.

Other sources than PP exists, but Verge/Hitagi/Xeno's rep is falling apart at the seams DLC-wise unfortunately. I could be entirely wrong but from what I've read it seems that way.

I don't get how and why Geno would be the red herring of all the characters on that list. In fact, aren't they /all/ red herrings except one? Why are we so sure Geno specifically is a red herring? And can anyone explain it as "just trust me don't take him seriously" or is this just how it's gonna be for a few more months?

Also when was it said PP's source was outdated?

This all sounds like those crazy VR chats where role-players and deviantart rejects band together to take everything super seriously. I don't see a reason to join any of these. Just make one server with different channels and categories. It's not rocket science. God, people and their complications.

Why did you decide to end a relatively reasonable post with a rick and morty image, while presumably knowing that the show’s reputation would mean nobody would take your post seriously?
