Right. I know that. I’m studying film, let’s not forget. But I feel like the storytelling in DMCV was “don’t show, don’t tell, read the characters minds”.
Again, Nero seeing Vergil for the first time. Despite how he's very foulmouthed and rude in general, he was VERY nice and hospitable to some stranger who barged into his garage. Another moment is when Dante fights Vergil, as during that fight Dante explicitly mentions that Nero is Vergil's kid. The pause between Vergil's lines imply he's incredibly shocked and is conflicted, but he's too stubborn to admit his flaws and acts like he knew and doesn't care. After the fight, Vergil asks Dante if Nero is indeed his son and when Vergil and Neo fight, Vergil stops acting like his usual self and when Nero snaps at both of them for leaving him out on this major detail, Vergil sounds sad, defeated, conflicted about all this. No one-liners, no insults, all he can muster is a soft whisper saying "Nero..." Every interaction with Nero afterwards has Vergil awkwardly show respect to Nero, as if to try and redeem himself for everything

A number of things I want to see in a potential sequel
-A bigger roster that has some more recognizable faces as well as bring back a few dead or obscure ones
-more streamlined combat system that is less all over the place and make sense with the directions needed to perform them, making the attacks easier to learn multiple characters and lowering the barrier of entry for new players.
-allow for more options to kill opponents other than Supers (thus making the rival fights much less of a drag)
-more varied stage layouts (invasions can stay)

I’m sure there’s a few more but these were the big changes I had in mind

Castlevania: Symphony of the Night-Alucard

The Last of Us-Ellie

LittleBigPlanet-Sackboy
MediEvil-Sir Daniel Fortesque
Metal Gear-Raiden
Nioh-William
Oddworld-Abe
PaRappa the Rapper-Parappa
Ratchet & Clank-Ratchet & Clank, Captain Quark
Rayman-Rayman
Resident Evil-Jill Valentine

Roscoe McQueen Firefighter Extreme-Roscoe McQueen

You say that like reading their minds wouldn't be a trip.

With the 3.1 patch coming in the next week, I wonder if dataminers are going to find anything new.

I doubt it, mainly because they’d probably only update it if there was a character coming that would be released at E3. In that case, my guess would be Erdrick, which wouldn’t really be too new.

Really, i’m just hyped to see if there’s a second reveal, and who it will be. I won’t really even care if it’s a surprise. I just hope it’s a worthwhile one.

Is PSASBR worth getting? I've seen it being sold for $9, but I haven't gotten around to playing games like Uncharted, Ratchet and Clank, or God of War yet (my PS3 has mostly been for JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, Kingdom Hearts, and Persona 5, though I do have those games in some form), so I'm only really familiar with Raiden and Heihachi out of the roster.

The whole "can only KO through super moves" mechanic makes the game less appealing for me (it seems like it would make ordinary attacks completely pointless, unlike ordinary fighting games or Smash), but I haven't played it so I don't know if it's more fun in practice.
It is very fun. Just dont take it seriously. I loved it.

They’d probably go modern considering Square though going Classic might distinguish her more from characters like Ellie or Aloy in terms of moveset
Mixed design. Like they usually do.

Oh, I wish I could do something like this. Or I could fool around and do the Great Deku Tree.
Any of those would be cool, or Tai Tai Heights from Link's Awakening (I haven't played the original LA yet, but I found out from it through Johnny Atma's remix of it. And Johnny's remixes are the best btw).

So...

I heard some things....

I heard some staff did some stupid things.

I heard one user in particular was disgusting.

I heard that some users were bullied off the site and when they left they were insulted behind their back.

I heard of rioting.

I heard about people I thought were cool turned to ****ters.

I came back just to say my life has been astronomically better since I left.

Unless some miracle happens. It will be permanent. I have the people I care about on discord and if I missed anyone, they'll be easy to find.

I heard about the bullying to. From what i hear, i see some of those accounts still posting . the bullies i mean.

How do you figure they could mix it?
I think they will use the a legends style design for the head, the age/body of the new one and the original outfit from the original lara.

If you're seeing Bullying, report it. It's how we know to instantly take care of it, if it's legit.

I will. I do not have all the facts of what happened, but the stories i heard flagged accounts as responsible parties. True or not, no idea. Hopefully they are just stories.

As for lara, i would like to see her. You know how hard it was to convince people i the 90s that it was ok for a guy to play a female lead character. So glad that phase in gaming is over.

What about potential moveset?
So. I mainly think in b moves. A moves are usually just punches and kicks.

I think gun or cross bow would be her b move.
Maybe have a wolf lunge out be her side b.
The flip move zero suit samus has could be her down b.
And up b could be a grapple gun.

Final smash could be a t rex.

Yeah we took out most of the ones who were the source of issues, if not all of them. So any reports of any visible **** people would help us get to them sooner, if they are even around. Thanks!

Swamp.

I know the **** that went down is absolutely horrible and inexcusable, but you don't need to be spiteful to the community as a whole like that.

It's not like every last person on the site is at fault for what happened. This was a very serious and sensitive situation. Lots of people handled things badly and hastily in the heat of the situation. Plenty of actions ended up unjust. Plenty of terrible words were exchanged. But we've done all we can and are now trying to walk away from it.

Stay away from the site for good if you want (I can hardly blame you. A lot of other people left as well, for very good reason) but at least leave with a better outlook and attitude than this.

If you don't, well, in any case, I would completely understand and respect your decision. I might use Steam, but I don't use Discord. So I'll miss seeing you around here, bud.

I'm sorry everything came down to this, Swamp...

Well.... I'll apologize for that last bit.

I was pretty mad when I found out everything that happened.

I'm still leaving King, but I'll edit out the inflammatory part.

That aside, we'll still talk on steam bud.

Cool. I see one account posting that people were not happy with. Will not make names, but i am watching for any vigilantism to report.

The event sounded like politics. Left vs right. With the right being stubborn and spouting taling points, and the left trying to shame them like the left always does.

Still, smash is not about politics. It is supposed to be about my ridley killing all yall in battles
Whohahahhaha

I think this was overblown personally

Yeah, not the site's greatest hour

I heard that some users were bullied off the site and when they left they were insulted behind their back.
... I missed this. What happened? Can anyone PM me?

Can't blame you for leaving, but KingofPhantoms KingofPhantoms is right, you don't have to come back to yell at everyone, most of whom had nothing to do with this.
EDIT: Nevermind, you've already addressed this

[COLOR=rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.870588)]27 million degrees Fahrenheit take. PSASBR is a better crossover than Smash. It doesn’t just stick elements from all its franchises together. It actually has them interact. [/COLOR]
Honestly yeah. Stage Morphing is cool but it'll never be as cool as "Look at the cutesy Loco Roco orbs having fun minding their own busine-ROARRRRR HERE'S A ****ING METAL GEAR THAT CAME OUT OF ****ING NOWHERE"

the locoroco stage is another reason PSASBR should've had a little more time in the oven

not because it's a bad stage, but because three months later they could have used rules of nature

I hate that people keep comparing smash to psasbr. I know everyone has to, but people can enjoy both.

Why does everyone expect people to pick o ly one.

Kat, sly, sweat tooth and sir dan were super fun. And snk even used the super kill system.

I think a sequel could really improve on the formula. And no comparing to ultimate.
