Corrin. Cool design. Broken unit. Sweet attack animations, classes and skills. Garbage character.

Kinda sums up a lot of Fates characters to be honest. Fates has like a dozen good characters total out of more than 60.
That's why I'm hesitant to get Fates, and instead get echoes.


Honestly I don't like Etika or his content. He's just a meme really.
"MEWTWEOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. MEWTWEOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. OH MY GOD MY ****. MY ****!"

Etika is the hype beast of the smash community.

Makes me really curious to see his reaction to Isaac's reveal. It's hard to say what he will do since I remember him responding to a comment about Golden Sun saying its a dead series and it's never coming back. So, he does know Golden Sun to an extent. Not sure how far though.

There's a difference between "Hey that anime girl is cute" and "Where are the Waifus???".
Etika gets kinda weird.
Corrin, Bayonetta, and palutena has spoiled him badly.

I'm gonna guess.
"Oh. Holy ****. They brought /him/ back? If he's back, Gene is DEFINITELY IN."

Quote me on this.

I like Etika but I find his community annoying. The porn replies to his tweets, the complaining about a lack of streams when they're getting content basically for free. I don't know, maybe I just don't get it because I don't watch YouTube very often anymore. Etika himself seems like a good guy though, and he even acknowledged characters like Isaac and Lloyd back in the day (I specifically remember it from that 11 hour stream he did when all the characters were leaked for Smash 4.)

We're in planning talks about a campaign; anyone who's serious about being a huge player in it, let us know

We'll let you all know when we've got updates!
I don't have much influence, but if you need low-level help, I'd be willing to lend a hand. I might be able to get some friends to join in, too.

Even though it isn’t Golden Sun music this is really awesome to listen to with what we’re doing here... for me anyway.

Hey that’s a thought. Gurren Lagann for Smash?... I’ll see myself out...

All things considered I'd not be shocked. There's a guy in our Discord comparing K. Rool to Geno. Ask and beg for Geno all you want. Maybe we'll even get him and I'll be fine with it.


But do NOT compare Geno to an actual character of significance. Just don't. Ugh.

You make it sound like he's being rude about it

I'd still argue he's still a significant character.

You gotta remember that SMRPG was a huge hit for Square, and it was towards the end of the SNES's life cycle, and it boosted the popularity of Square.

And it was also the end of the relationship of Square and Nintendo too.

Gene is a significant character.

As much as Isaac or Skull kid? That's debatable.

We ABSOLUTELY will! I've already joined in a Golden Sun and Shining Force Discord. I really want us to get the attention of Camelot (most specifically, the Takahashi Brothers), Nintendo, and Sega.

Echoes was great! Fates is a very fun game to play, unfortunately they tried to split the story into 3 variations which really killed various character interactions and development. Corrin being the biggest victim of that. If they simply focused on ONE story then all those characters including Corrin had the potential to be some of the greatest characters Fire Emblem ever produced. Sadly they went the Pokémon route and couldn’t handle variations. Smh

I hear from my friends that converting FE to the Pokémon method of splitting up content into 2 games hurt the overall quality.

What you heard is correct! Fates was split into 3 versions! I played through all three. Some characters were fantastic in one and terrible in the other two. Corrin was never good in any of them except for the fact he/she was quite overpowered late game.

Fire Emblem took a cue from Pokemon.

What do you think his reaction will be if Geno is announced first?

To me, FE has different groups
Classic: FE 1-3
The most different: 4-5
GBA Golden Era 6-9
Ike 9-10
New Age 11-12


There is so much drama and hate within the community.
Did awakening save FE? Yes
Did awakening start a old vs new war? Yes
Did fates throw so much oil in the fire because it catered to the new and not the old fans?
Big time.

If you want to play FE and get into it you have different sections to go into

Want classic NES stuff?
1-3
Want classic NES stuff but updated?
SoV
Want big maps and good story?
4-5
Want (imo) the best turn based FE game? 7 then 6 then 8
Want 6-9 but in 3d?
Ike

Want to dip your toes into FE?
Awakening

But don't start off with fates.
It's hard to turn back from that game to try older stuff.

If we're talking about Etika boy howdy have I got lots to say on him.

- The waifu thing has gone from a joke to creepy territory. Especially his obsession with Corrin's feet.
- His reactions really have gone from hilariously over-the-top to really boring. His K. Rool one especially - God, shut up for two seconds and watch the damn trailer instead of ranting.
- He says that certain word that starts with "n" way too much. Again, it went from being occassionally funny to just being childish and obnoxious. I'm not gonna pretend I know the guy, but it seems like he's playing a character too much.
- His reactions now do the opposite to me; they actually make me less hype.

Man, this thread is still going and I love it. Just for clarification to everyone, I apologize for the double posts and my crude picture of Isaac using move to give the middle finger. It was never my intention to offend or directly attack anyone or any fanbases. I may have a crude sense of humor, but I will be sure to watch what I say or do according to the rules in the future. My most sincere apologies.

To be fair (and I use that term lightly), he did state that he never grew up with the DKC series before, so to him, he's not that hyped for him, but more excited that the "leaks" we're real.

Other than that, I do agree with you.

You are forgiven, you like metabots and that makes you a good person

Haha! I actually loved that picture! Still had that saved on my computer somewhere for years.

Now I'm curious as to whom were offended by it though?

Was metabots the one that had the artstyle of the Digimon Movie?
Not the same developers, but I know Summer Wars was made by the same team who did the Digimon Movie.

Also, whew. To be honest, I don't think it really offended anyone, but I wasn't aware of the rules for this site and was notified. Same with double posting, just got to be aware of it. I am always trying to respect others who may be sensitive to some situations. I am just glad I didn't xD

Jeez, I can't believe just how much this specific thread has taken off post August Direct. To be honest it scares me a little because the only other time I've ever seen this kind of blow out was... Ashley after E3...

That said, the picture is a giant reason for this increase in traffic I imagine, as well as good amount of the other two big communities coming over now that those characters have had their fates sealed in the base game.

I'm glad to see this continued support of Isaac, and even more importantly, it does seem like a genuinely high number of people like him and even voted for him in the Smash ballot as I continue to read through the comments. So I'm ever hopeful for his inclusion in the game.

Hey, just dropping by to say that while I'm not a huge Golden Sun fan by any means, I've always thought Isaac would have a great moveset and really deserves to get in. I'm surprised he didn't make it in Smash 4, and was definitely disappointed to see him just completely missing in action. When the ballot came around I did vote for him (and a couple other people), so I really hope it ends up well for you guys! You've waited long enough and your patience deserves to be rewarded.

The results are in! Japan has decided their top 5 most desired characters for Smash Ultimate!

1. Bandana Waddle Dee (Kirby)
2. Rex (Xenoblade)
3. Spring Man (ARMS)
4. Mimikyu (Pokemon)
5. Jibanyan (Yokai Watch)


No Isaac insight, but I know he polled better in US and Europe!

Poor Japanese people. The only one feasible is Bandana Waddle Dee.

Most of those seem too recent to be considered for this one.
Except that Yokai watch character.

Isaac's presence has always been more popular in other regions', so no surprise there.
