Alternatively, we could default to the classic Evangelion waifu wars, but I feel like most of you wouldn't get it since you haven't watched it.

Personally I'm a Misato kinda guy.

Cool.

I’m honestly out of tune with most of the stuff talked here, so it’s honestly a thing I don’t worry much about.

But yeah, all that FE talk makes me feel more lost than Waldo/Wally.

Ah, I see you're a man of culture as well.
I would love to try it if I had the game...
You know, just for answering my post who was the last one on the previous page, you get a hug.

Going to my local scene has shown me just how ****ty smash ultimate's online is.
I’m more of an offline player, so I don’t really have a good point of view about the online outside of the 30 minutes I tried it when I got the Mario Tennis Aces demo.

Don't know Evangelion?

Got Netflix?

Good. Watch Evangelion. Episodes 1-26 and then End if you wanna get everything.

Today's been great.

Went to do my groceries then went home and bonded playing with my dogs outside in the backyard for an hour before taking one of them to the creek for an half hour and taking a nice dip then got home to play with both of them more.

Then starting tonight I'll be beginning my The Fast and the Furious Marathon to get ready for Hobbs & Shaw next month.

Beginning of a great Summer so far. :)

I sadly don’t have Netflix either.

But maybe I’ll look it up online, more so after seeing a few reactions to the Netflix dub.

I'm definitely going to be an offline player from now on. I actually feel like i'm having fun matches and learning when playing with the guys at the local scene. I just wish there were more days that they were open.

Job interview over. It went well, I think. Will have a follow-up interview next week.

I just want Melee to die, because it's the worst community in the Fighting Game community.

The Smash community in general is yikes. That is why I tend to avoid it.
Sweeping statements like this only add fuel to the already raging fire. If you want the Smash community to get better, try focusing on the positives of both Melee and Ultimate and respect what both have brought and bring to the community, respectively. You can like Ultimate more, or you can like Melee more. Perhaps an individual likes both equally. Whatever the case is, great. But, placing a blanket statement on an entire community, when the smash community as a whole is at fault for shady actions (not only the Melee elitists) is hypocrisy and just makes things harder for everyone. Nobody wins.

Besides, you said yourself that the "smash community in general is yikes", so to some level I would hope that you agree that the Melee section of the Smash community is not the only guilty party, even though they're infamous. However, with what you said in your first sentence...who knows other than yourself, right? It feels like a contradiction to one extent or the other.

Either way, wanting an entire game to die just to feel some form of "victory" is tragic, and it just adds more controversy in the long run. So, you can do one of two things... 1.) You can still prefer Ultimate, but at the same time ignore Ultimate haters while also respecting Melee and how it's made a significant impact on Smash's history, and also getting along well with the non-Melee elitists for still appreciating the game for what it is despite it not being your favorite Smash game, OR 2.) You can continue to curse the Melee community and act like they're Satan-spawn, thus only adding fuel to the fire that isn't really necessary.

I'm frankly sick and tired of seeing this "Melee vs. everyone else" debate. What has it helped? That's right...nothing.

Part of me wants to believe that the attitude will change, but I know that won't happen. I'm too cynical to believe that the Smash community will EVER get significantly better in attitude, even though I want to fight against the divides within the community.

Lag sucks, yeah. I much rather prefer local play because combos and recovery don't get messed up. I entered in an online tournament the other day, and while practicing for it online, the lag screwed up my recovery multiple times. It was awful. Thankfully, I didn't have any lag blunders in bracket. My losses were due to the other player simply being better, 100%.

Its not even just the lag that makes me seethe when playing Ultimate online. Everything about it is just rageinducing and trash. Pointfiends 1 and doneing you in quickplay, not able to match with stable connections, arena not letting you to go to the css without jumping out of the queue.
If I didn't start going to locals last month i was close to just dropping the game.

I feel that.

One way that I've been able to *relatively* deal with it is finding Smash friend connections through discord. A friend I got close with invited me to his discord, and after testing matches with him and his peers, I was able to narrow it down to people with consistent connections and people with inconsistent connections. Ofc, I spar with people that are consistent in their connection. And, concerning finding people to play with...if you're able to find a discord community to play smash on, it helps because you aren't rolling the dice for a respectful opponent every time you open up a new arena.

Hopefully those suggestions help you.

Hopefully people ask me a lot of things when my AMA starts.

I would love to answer stuff I feel confident enough to talk about.

Alright, I finally posted my level!

Revenge Against The Moon!

Give it a play if you can, it's my first stage since a loooooong time, so don't expect anything crazy, but I think you still find it interesting.

Tagging Gyrom8 Gyrom8 ,@Taylor F , King Sonnn DeDeDoo King Sonnn DeDeDoo , KarneraMythos KarneraMythos , Dyllybirdy Dyllybirdy & Guh-Huzzah! Guh-Huzzah! , not sure if some of you have the game, but better be safe than sorry.

Guess I'll try to find a discord server to play with. I just dislike having to use outside resources to find good matches. This is the only game where I've run into this problem.

I get that. On the upside, it could help you in the long run. Finding a community will be more beneficial in the long run for practice rather than just playing against randos online all day.

Your level is fun! I liked it.
You already finish it?

I mean, it isn't a big level or anything, but wow.

In fact, the game is telling me nobody done it, or even tried the level.

Guess it must be a glitch or something...right?

I just liked it. I never finished it, though. I am trying it right now.
Edit: I finished it.

Shiny, you don't like a level just because it's from someone you like, it mean nothing to me if you didn't even try to beat before giving it a cool.

I beat it, and I liked it. I promise I actually liked the level.
Then keep that in mind for the future: don't like my levels unless you beated them or you played them enough that, while you can't beat it, you still find it a cool level.

OK?
Just beat it.

...Yes, I know.

I liked it. :D
Heyyyy, glad you did.

Think you can say what you liked about it? Could help me for the future levels.

I just liked the acrobatics and difficulty level of it (as in, while it wasn't easy, it certainly wasn't hard either, the difficulty level was just right).

Wario Bros. Wario Bros. You were talking about wanting modded characters in yesterday, right? I had an idea for one.


This should have happened already.

Tried out Mario Make's online. I see what Nintendo's plan is. They're making every game's online progressively worse so that we appreciate Ultimate's online more. Very clever.
Seriously though, this feels borderline unplayable half the time.
