This reminded me of how there's no way Bayo isn't their final opponent in Classic Mode. Can't think of the rest.

Remember that Jill Valentine moveset I made awhile back? Well, I'm scrapping that. It's boring, and not creative enough.

I believe @Godzillathewonderdog mentioned it earlier, but after seeing the Hero moveset, I think it's potentially possible for Sakurai and the dev team to implement a moveset for a Resident Evil pick (I think it's between Leon, Chris, and Jill) where they have their own inventory they can select and use. It's almost like a briefcase with weapons, and items like Green/Blue/Red Herbs.

Basically, let's use Leon as an example (starting to think he's the pick tbh). The default moveset starts with a pistol. This pistol has unlimited ammunition, but unlike Joker, Leon has to reload after a certain number of shots. These shots would have more power/knockback than Joker's pistol, and that could just be explained that it's a "real pistol". If he reloads successfully, he can go back to shooting almost instantly. This would take a second or two. However, similar to Ridley taking big damage if he's hit at the start of his fireball attack, if Leon gets hit while reloading, it jams his pistol and takes longer to reload.

This instills the feeling of conservation of equipment, timing, and strategy of Resident Evil.

Something similar could be implemented with the remainder of the moveset, however. As you use other items, they'd be put on either a cooldown, or gone completely. Considering Green Herbs heal, the use of a Green Herb should require a fair amount of time to use, and be in especially limited quantity.

Consider this...Leon is at the center of Battlefield and suplexes Mario. Mario is sent flying off the stage. Leon now has time to use one of his Green Herbs before he's attacked again. This takes a few seconds (maybe a tad shorter than the 1-UP flag item), and heals something like 20% (points, not 20% of the total) of his health.

I'm not sure what other items could be included except for grenades (which would be probably stronger than Snake's grenades...they'd function differently anyway).

This actually seems like a cool idea. I'm not sure what kind of playstyle he'd have, but it's fun to think about.

I love the idea of implementing RE's inventory management in that way. I can totally see a zoner type playstyle in order to fire/reload and heal when necessary, mimicking RE in a sense. The jamming provides some counterplay as well.

The healing would have to be extremely limited and take some commitment. I honestly think that once you start the heal you should be unable to stop it, and opponents can interrupt it. It should definitely be a onetime use, maybe you could have 2 green herbs and a red, giving you the choice to mix them for one larger heal (not gonna say full despite it doing that in the games because that'd be pretty strong) or keep them separate for more smaller heals.

Various grenades could be implemented (incendiary leaving a trail of fire that's larger and lasts longer than the Belmonts, flashbang stuns, etc.) to give the character even more utility.

Hey so I found out something interesting about the DLC characters on the website

All of them have a light green background in the character menu, except Joker who has a red background.

What does it mean...? People have theorized Joker would get Kasumi as an Echo so... red BG = has Echo, green BG = doesn’t???

This is what happens when we have no leaks

Hope color theory doesnt become a thing, I have a hard time of thinking non-us Orange characters

 

[Wademan94]

The obvious colors for Ryu Hayabusa would be a blackish color or purple or dark blue but you can make arguments that he could have orange.

 

[Opossum]

Well it shouldn’t. Fire Emblem is lower down on the Nintendo tier list. It hasn’t been around as long and isn’t as popular. It needs to be proportional so each franchise is represented to scale and no series is made out to be more important than it actually is.

You do realize Fire Emblem is only four years younger than The Legend of Zelda, right? There's a larger gap in time between Mario and Link's debuts than there is for Link and Marth's debuts.

Final Fantasy VII is pretty neat so far.

Bit of an unpopular opinion but I’m glad FF7R is taking the episodic route and expanding the Midgar arc. I always thought your time with Biggs, Wedge and Jessie was too short in the vanilla game, and the spirits surrounding Aerith is a mystery I’d like to see unravel

And it would make you-know-who’s death even more impactful later on

What are they gonna do with Crisis Core tho? :thonk:

Also I’m really gonna heckin miss Steve Burton as Cloud, George Newbern as Sephiroth, and Rachel Leigh Cook as Tifa. At least keep Steve Blum as Vincent pls

There's a reason why its popular, sadly its a game that became so popular that people just dislike it due to its popularity.

I knew they had replaced Cloud's VA, but I didn't realise most of the rest of them were replaced as well...

The male MC being given less romacable option then the damn girl in Three houses seems right

****ing hell man, Why is it always the male given the short end of the stick in this kinda thing. Hopefully what I saw was a product of the game not being finished

 

[Scoliosis Jones]

To be honest, I'm glad most of the roster arguments in terms of sales and "reps" stayed with the Smash 4 era and early Smash Ultimate.

Like, these "reps", "slots", and who "deserves" to be in the game are pointless. It's not a ****ing hall of fame to stare at, it's a video game that is played by millions of people. Characters like Roy, Chrom, Lucina were added through a mix of game development opportunities and fan demand. It's because it's a video game. It's a video game that goes through a number of different transformations during development.

Such is the development that has turned it into the greatest gaming crossover series ever, not just Nintendo but with other big time gaming series.

It's a lot more fun to talk about the series when it comes to actually playing it. I don't miss the "reps" and what not.

We don't know for sure yet. I know the screenshot you're referring too and there seemed to be a hefty scroll bar, so maybe there's some options that we just haven't seen yet. I'll admit it doesn't look great though.

For real? Im surprised that the DQ heroes ended with one million views more than BK, wonder if they are just counting oficial sources or anything. Still happy that the series is increasing im awareness.

While I do believe larger franchises are entitled to more characters than less popular ones, I also think a line should be drawn so it's not forced.

Even though Animal Crossing and Splatoon have become two of Nintendo's biggest IPs, but I don't see any good reason to give either franchise more than three characters. The cast of both games are small in terms of characters who could realistically get in, and trying to add anyone else outside of Tom Nook and Octolings would be a waste of precious development time that someone more deserving should've gotten.

But someone saying Zelda, Kirby, or DK deserves more reps? I can understand what they mean. The franchises are well-known, there's still some reasonable options to choose from, and said options are somewhat iconic to Nintendo. I don't know if I'd compare them to FE since insane luck is what contributed to it's number of reps, but looking at these franchises by themselves, I can usually pick up this gut feeling that someone or something is missing from the roster.

One million people leaving angry comments about how nobody cares. /s

But yeah, I’m not sure which channels were used for data. Still happy to see both get exposure. Hell, hopefully this convinces Rare to make a Banjo game.

Yeah, thats why I edited that I hope its just a product of an unfinished game. But if thr male does have less then f this. It isnt fair to give one sex more options then the other
