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.

Discussion topic:

Unlocking characters in WoL unlocks them for the rest of the game. But unlocking characters outside of WoL doesn't unlock them inside the game.

So my question is, how do you think DLC characters will be handled for WoL? Will they:

A. Be unlocked right from the start automatically.
B. Not be usable in WoL at all.
C. Have their spirit battle added to the WoL map someplace.

If C. do you think they'll just throw the tokens around in a few places, or do you think the new characters might have their own entirely new sections of the map, maybe with a bunch of other spirits relating to their series?

And if so, might those areas already be drawn onto the map now, but just but simply lacking the ability to walk to them, and IF SO, might there be any hints on the WoL map as to who the characters are?

I'm guessing B

If they come with spirits (e.g. the P5 party) I want sub-zones like in current WoL with the new spirits unlockable through new themed battles.

Something I wanted to ask you guys. Considering the way Reggie phrased his statement on dlc characters, do you think that this means 3rd party characters who were mii costumes are out of the running? Coming from a Lloyd boy

IMO, the biggest problem with Persona 5 can be the writing.

There is one particular sequence of dialogue later in the game that is just awful. It’s honestly the worst.

That said, I’ve mentioned this before, but Persona 5 still has stellar gameplay, graphics, music, and presentation, so it more than makes up for that.
Thankfully, it's not just me. Yeah, it's a great game but whole ending after a point was the weakest in... well, probably entire series imo. It didn't left me satisfied in a manner that P4 and P3 did.

A good spirit team really can make a match a lot easier. My fully leveled OoT Zelda spirit was able to let me just keep taking Azura / Corrin's Final Smashes like they were nothing. A franklin badge spirit also turns some otherwise frustrating matches into a breeze.

And then if one is really frustrating in WoL I can usually just find a way to skip it or go around it.

I posted this as a thread yesterday and got no replies, so hopefully this is a better place to post this. If it isn't, then please tell me where I should.




So, I have some questions on spirits mode.

For one, Is it possible to replay a spirits battle witout making a second adventure mode or getting rid of the spirit? Like, does it show up in the Spirits Board again at all? I know you can play it again if you make a second adventure mode account in the game, but I mean outside of that

Second, if I get a spirit outside of Spirits mode, do I still play the battle in Adventure Mode, or does it disappear?

Third, are the boss fights replayable? Haven't gotten to one yet to know. btw, don't give me any spoilers, I just wonder if I'll be replay the Galeem battle and stuff without having to play the whole mode again, as I heard it's 20+ hours long.

Idk about the final boss (haven't gotten there yet) but bosses like Galleom and Rathalos can be fought by doing specific character's Classic moded

Nah, you're doing fine. You're way better at Inkling than me, lol
It's hard to adjust to the artificial input delay from online, and also i'm super clumsy with my hands and keep accidentally flicking the c stick and hitting the b button at the same time lmao

Never forget the crux of the defeat of the mastermind.

"Pancakes."
Tbh, I actually liked that part. The twist with:
Joker surviving
Played out really well.

The game’s ending isn’t particularly bad either, and the final fight is pretty well executed.

It’s moreso things like
Shido and Goro’s exposition dialogue, Morgana’s hissy fit, and other stuff like that that get to me. The last 3-4 months of P5s story are a mix of good and bad moments, IMO.

Oh no, the "plan" was a great sequence.
I just wish they didn't kickstart it with that convenience.
P5's scenes in the mid-endgame in general don't feel especially thought out.

That talk about P5 just makes me want to play that game more.

Hope we get a Switch port, so I dont have to buy a PS4 lol

well unlocking characters is easier in World of in my opinion-
I found playing Smash mode MUCH easier and more fun. I could just play the game with friends while unlocking. Plus if you reset the game after the unlock screen, you can unlock characters 10x faster.

Hey how do you set preferred stages in arenas?
In your random stage toggle which I believe is not available to customize in Online.
I don't have the game but I heard that setting it up in local play and then leaving the stage selection as random will make it use from one of those only.

Very extremely happily.

Bit of an off topic question but did anyone else get their code for PP yet? I claimed the coins on friday and have gotten nothing so far. Im not sure if the weekend is being counted in those two days or not. Though I don't get why that would matter when sending out an email

Not be useable at all most likely, DLC characters are rarely ever involved in fighting game story modes unless they're already close to compleye.
