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.

Sorry if i sound like a ******** person...

But could you explain me the Xenoblade thing too?
I thought that each game took place in different locations until now.
X isn't connected as far as I'm aware, but the worlds of Chronicles 1 and 2 exist in parallel, both stemming from the human scientist Klaus. Following an experiment, Klaus creates a new universe (the setting of 1) but is split in two in the process: his left half enters the new universe, reshapen as the antagonist Zanza. The original universe, meanwhile (thought to be destroyed in 1 with the creation of the new), is revealed to have been left mostly intact, with Klaus's remaining half wracked by guilt. This half, attempting to atone for his sins, becomes known as the Architect and creates the Cloud Sea and world of Alrest from the wreckage of the old universe - becoming the setting of 2.

At the end of 2, Shulk can be heard from the other universe preparing to defeat Zanza; and once this is done, the Architect also begins to fade away. Essentially, then, the plots of both games happen and end around the exact same time.

How disrespectful of this guy to play the game before it even releases. I bet he didn't even pay for his copy :/

I haven't posted in this thread in a long while! Mainly been on the Geno support and now the Square Enix thread.
With the game coming out in less than a day I just have to say what a grand time it has been to join this community of smashers and weirdos. Y'all are pretty awesome. Can't wait to play!

a 9.4??? and smash wii u a 9.8???? GO HOME IGN YOU'RE DRUNK
Besides the different writers and opinions...

Is a .4 difference in score that much of a big deal? They're both in the 9's when it's all said and done. Even if I kind of agree that Ultimate should automatically be considered an upgrade over Smash 4 with more characters, stages, and gameplay refinements. I'm not going to say that a score out of 10 that they'd be that far apart for me.

I am glad that i buy phisical games on retail stores looking at this Amazon stuff.

And i feel that IGN's review will end up being better than Eurogamer's if the latter makes a Dark Souls comparison.

"Fighting Bayonetta online feels like facing many of the bosses in the Dark Souls trilogy. It is something that you have to play to understand the difficulty of it..."-Probably Eurogamer reviewing Ultimate-

"We expected Ultimate to have a great balance between casual and competitive gameplay... But our experience felt more like playing Dark Souls 3 for the first time."
