They also clarified no other fighters will be revealed on that livestream, just to clarify.

There will be no further new fighter reveals other than a fighter from ARMS in this livestream.

Calling it now, they pull a Pokémon and Sakurai tells us when they are dropping the trailer for the next character.

Because they are absolutely ready to be shown. They had a few months of work before COVID and still got worked on during it.

And we’ve been getting 2 characters each E3 so I’m sure the same was planned here. My bet they announce a trailer for next week with the next character as it was going to be an E3 reveal.

 

[Hadokeyblade]

The Springman cometh.

The Springman cometh.

The Doctor is In.

Min-Min for the Win Win!

I'm betting we're going to know when we are getting the next character trailer.

And honestly I could see them announcing whether it is first or third party.

Crash 4’s announcement window is also easily close. It would make so much sense, just saying.

Ah, you thought it was pizza time?

JOKES ON YOU, IT'S ALWAYS REYN TIME.

(for real, I just ate a pizza, pretty good stuff)

A Reyn-bow, baby.

 

[Z25]

Yfw Sakurai says tune into the Pokémon Presents for the next character?

 

[TMNTSSB4]

so...TLOU2 got them good reviews from the game reviewers, but hate from the fans

...oh well **** those guys Clementine is always superior

 

[Strong Badam]

omggg i can't believe it cloud has been announced for super smash bros

 

[PeridotGX]

Nuzlocke Update: I beat Clay, but at a high price. The two "lead" Pokemon on the team, Dewott and Lucario, were killed by Clay's Excadrill. I have decent replacements, and there are other strong Pokemon already there like Scolipede and Krokorok, but still.

 

[Lamperouge]

Yay, we'll finally be done with the whole "Guess Who" bull****!

Really hoping for Min Min but I'd be pretty happy with Spring Man and Ribbon Girl, too.

 

[Deleted member]

Woah.

Ok I'm currently taking breaks from posting around Smashboards, but felt the need to say this:

Remember that person at Discord who I said they may have a crush on me and I thought he was a boy?
Turns out she is a girl.

If I told someone in primary school or high school that a girl wanted to be my girlfriend they would have mocked my existence, which is why I find It kinda funny.


But It just goes to show how with time things get better for a person if they put enough effort.


Also, Injustice 1 is currently free on PS4, Xbox and Steam in Spain.

What TLOU2?

What I've been seeing was just bad fanfiction in the form of an game.

Yay, we'll finally be done with the whole "Guess Who" bull****!

Then watch following forth that every character following gets the "Guess Who?" treatment.

 

[Z25]

Bold Pokémon Predictions:

We get an Action RPG like Xenoblade but with Pokémon developed by Monolith.

It’s the big Holiday Title this year

 

[Aurane]

...I forgot to transfer my 6IV Ditto.

God ****ing dammit.

 

[Lamperouge]

Then watch following forth that every character following gets the "Guess Who?" treatment.

No, pls.

I'd be an emotional wreck if Smash ended up confirming something like "the development for a fighter from the Xenoblade Chronicles series is now underway" and kept us in the dark just as long as they did for the ARMS fighter.

 

[Dutch Raikuna]

Playing Xenoblade 1 Remake.

**** Ice Cabbages. You'd expect the developers to have raised the RNG of some items.

My best friend is probably in the minority. He's really liking it so far.

I'm just like "Really?"

Woah.

That's a turn up for the books.

Seems your cool with it.

This reminds me that I should probably play the Last of Us.

...and the last two seasons of Telltale's Walking Dead game.

...and I still need to finish Nier Automata, and Hollow Knight, and Bug Fables, and Pokemon Y, and...

Looks like another Hitoshi Ariga Pokemon ArtFX figure was announced. With the exception of Kris, that's pretty much every female protagonist. Am surprised he went with Sobble over Scorbunny for her. Will probably pass on it but the artwork is nice as always.

Also had my pre-order for the Dawn figure delayed again...nor is Amazon.jp letting me pre-order the new Red figure. >_>

I’ve seen the same...or worse...fanfiction (and a naughty scene I’ll regret for the rest of the day), so I wonder whether or not the reviewers were paid to praise it while the fans still despise it

after all the chaos via the leaks, I kinda expected bad reviews everywhere

definitely get on those last 2 seasons of Walking Dead....and even though I ain’t played Neir myself, also finish that just as fast.

 

[PeridotGX]

it's the little things. Hershey and Lily (my other dog, a husky-german shepard mix) played a game where Hershey would try to take Lily's collar off. I never thought twice about it before, but i just realized that game won't be played anymore.

I'm the same. I've got about 20 games to complete backlog wise and about 30 TV shows/anime I want to watch.

Also you should play Nier Automata. It is amazing.

 

[ZephyrZ]

I know nothing about TLOU2 but I know sometimes reviewers are fanbases just aren't always on the same page as eachother. We don't always need "all reviewers were bribed" theories.

Look at FE: Fates. Fans were furious over its stories but reviewers loved it, and the game sold extremely well on top of that.

Pokemon Sword/Shield also got a lot of fandom hate despite positive sales and reviews - just look at how divided its metacritic score is.

Yeah, it's the game that I'm focusing on at the moment - I think I'm a little over halfway through the game? I've finished ending B, and I'm on the path to either ending C or D. I'm not sure when Chapter Select unlocks, so I don't know if I'll have to play this segment again to get whichever ending I don't get the first time. (I'm assuming that once I reach those two endings, I'll be able to get to ending E)

Sticker Star is another example.

 

[Wademan94]

Sticker Star is another example.

That game did not deserve 8s or 7.5s, I wonder how many of these reviewers even made it past the first two worlds.

 

[Michael the Spikester]

To compare the later Paper Mario games to TLOU2?

That's speaking volumes.

Nobody's comparing modern Paper Mario to TLOU2 lol. In fact, to say that they're even on the same level is blatantly false.

There's 2 kinds of videogame critics.

Paid shills who don't actually like the game but have to keep up appearances because it's an easy paycheck.

Or

Pretentious a-holes who have their heads too far up their butts.

 

[TheMightyP]

I got to say though, I hate review culture.

People act like if you're game is below a 90, than it's automatically ass, or the reviewers don't know art or something. But if a game does get a 90+, and gamers didn't really like it, it's paid off. There's no winning.

 

[Good Guy Giygas]

I've pretty much stayed away from anything related to the Last of Us 2 because I don't want anything spoiled. But my copy comes tomorrow so I will just play the game and form my own opinion on it. A lot of games that are "divisive" when they come out I've ended up loving.

 

[Lamperouge]

I still haven't beat the first Last of Us.

 

[TheMightyP]

I think a lot of TLOU2's issies boil down to Neil Druckmann himself.

He's the same as Kenji Inafune. Businessmen, not creators. Especially in this case, as Neil act's like he's creating the Citizen Kane of video games, when in reality he's creating Batman v Superman.

That's just an issue with scores which should definitely be abolished all around.
Discourse would then turn into actually reading the reviews instead of a **** measuring contest over the aggregate scores and ignoring scores that you disagree with. It'd probably also challenge reviewers to say something more meaningful than usual because they can't use an arbitrary number as a crutch.

Yeah, that's honestly why I prefer watching Youtuber's review's because a lotnof them dropped the number system and justbgave of their personal experience

Actually this one is Schindler's List apparently

Yeah, I saw that. Jason Schreier roasted him for that as well, which is bizarre because that man has been taking a lot of L's during 2020.
