Social Swamp's Social Thread 3 - And now, the end is near, and so I face the final curtain...

[Kurri ★]

Smash Bros.

Edit: Blah, you edited in that last part when I was typing the reply.
----

I was hoping Smash was implied since... you know... this is a Smash Bros fansite.

Joy Mech, which is what Sukapon's from.

I don't know who Sukapon is but today I learned something.

'FIRE EMBLEM IS HOMOPHOBIC' 'GAY CONVERSION' 'CENSORING LESBIANS' everywhere

If only I knew what the lines were originally and what they were changed to. But I doubt it was that bad of a change.

Guys...

Err, you misunderstood me, that was the reaction from the original support, all we know is that NOA changed it

Final Fantasy XV's development has finished, the development team says they are having issues with putting it on consoles, let's hope this doesn't hinder/delay it's 2016's release, even though I'm not worried.

We are getting it's release date on March 30th, I really can't wait.

wait, pc development? So it is coming to PC!

 

[Kirby Dragons]

What other Nintendo fighting game is there aside from Pokken (which isn't even out). And don't say Punch out cause that's not a fighting game.

Unless you're going to state which Smash specifically.

Urban Champion.....

 

[Champ Gold]

I find this really odd.

Because even if they own part of the rights to Bayonetta 2, they don't own the character or IP.

Or do they?

They don't and even they know that Sega won't give up the IP. They can moneyhat the 3rd game as a NX exclusive but most cases if Sega wanted they can take it back to the PS/Xbox audience as well.

One major example of this is all the massive Sega references in her games and the music (Splash Wave (from Outrun) and After Burner are both listed for the Clock Tower stage).

I actually want Bayonetta 3 to come to all three major consoles.

That means more people will get to play her games.

But Nintendo should be only one to get exclusive content because of the love they gave to her. Not just costumes tho. Maybe a weapon? Or maybe a prequel chapter or more Witch Trials.

 

[Depressed Gengar]

>Actually goes back to read the pages I missed
>Mostly just people whining about people disliking characters they like, getting laid, optimism somehow being a good thing, more Fates censorship talk without no confirmation on the skinship.
Now I remember why I don't check the pages I missed for Social Threads.

Oh, and Corrin and Bayonnaise are getting released soon. Eh... Not like I care too much really, given how I likely won't be able to buy any of the DLC til Christmas this year, and neither are my top priorities, but hey, at least that topic's been put to rest. But of course, Smash speculation still refuses to rest.

 

[Bedoop]

So...

Does any other character have as bad *** of a win animation as Corrin does here? Like, holy crap he's majestic as ****.

I'm getting serious Spyro the Dragon vibes from this.

Corrin feels like the "& Knuckles* part of DLC lmao.

Quick, someone give me an R in the style of "& KNUCKLES"
I already got C, O, I and N
We need us an R

day after my birthday

'FIRE EMBLEM IS HOMOPHOBIC' 'GAY CONVERSION' 'CENSORING LESBIANS' everywhere

nuuuu not the lesbians there cool to talk with we talk about cute girls

I have to say though I'm feeling empty knowing that, in roughly 4 days, the Smash speculation era will be in hibernation for at least 5 years.

It's gonna be a long, loooooooooonnnnnnnnnng time.

or you could say your NOT really feeling it... but there is a rumor of smash nx being a launch title

Guys...

The speculation era ended in December....

nope the rumors are keeping this alive but i would believe them since the wiiu didnt sell too good

 

[Khoru]

it's just after burner in smash

 

[powerprotoman]

meanwhile this proves to me that bayos stage is tourney legal

no hazards and platforms come in periodcially? its basically a better town&city/smashville

 

[Schnee117]

I'm with you up until this:

But Nintendo should be only one to get exclusive content because of the love they gave to her. Not just costumes tho. Maybe a weapon? Or maybe a prequel chapter or more Witch Trials.

Exclusive content is a huge nono for the red part.
No one should be getting a lesser experience because they lack the console with the exclusive content for the game or prefer another console's controller for that particular type of game. Cosmetics and weapons are kinda better because you're not missing actual playable content but you're still missing a relatively small slice of the game and with Bayonetta the weapons are quite diverse and fun to wield so to be locked out of something that looks really fun to use just because you're not on the NX would suck.

Just my view on that because exclusive content has stung a fair bit *coughDestinycough* but that example is a fairly big rant for another day if the opportunity arises.

 

[Frostwraith]

I don't feel empty in regards to speculation being over. I actually feel relieved.

I can't wait to get Bayonetta and Corrin and start playing the game more, knowing that all characters and stages are now set in stone.

 

[powerprotoman]

how about bayonetta 3 stay nintendo exclusive....seeing as microsoft and sony didnt want bayo 2 to the point the game got cancelled until nintendo saved it and some might think that unfair......but i dont care

 

[Frostwraith]

Also, Bayonetta's clapping animation is glorious.

She's sassy, even when she loses. More like, she didn't lose, but let the others win. lol

Lol, Im like raw spaghetti.

Im straight man.

Was it so hard to answer?

Probably cause Im eating spaghetti right now.

At least you have good taste

I don't like the way Bayonetta screams so high pitchy when she dies in the English version. Doesn't really suit her.

WHY SAKURAI WTF WHY.

But fine. I'm grateful she even made it.

Bayonetta's voice makes Corrin's look great
Like, unless the trailer isn't a good representative of their voices, his voice was sounding way better with the way Bayo screamed

They deserve some props, yeah.

Not too much, though, considering pretty much all their other Smash discussion videos were filled with mind-numbing stupidity. ROB and G&W likely to be cut? Ganondorf will be replaced with Ghirahim? Smash NX will have a bunch of new characters?

Nah, we should give that fame to Gamesradar
Marth and Ike cut for Chrom and Lucina? Lucario cut? Ganondorf replaced woth Toon Ganondorf? Yup!

See, this is ironic.

I didn't vocally support Bayonetta because I knew I would get ostracized.

And now people are complaining about how the Bayonetta supporters are forcing people into submission about how it makes sense.

What comes around goes around.

I feel about the same
I wanted a Fates character since the beginning of the ballot
But I'd be ripped apart if I ever said that, before and even more after Roy

Haven't played Bayonetta, so I wouldn't get the reference.

I just go by what I see. And it looks like the typical "pack mule" role being used for the Mario Bros.

The scene is one of the first in the demo actually
I didn't even play Bayo but I got that reference

Because we never got laid in our lives.

Fixed

I don't often hear people get angry at you for preferring steak to pork, though.

I do
But not for preferring one or the other
Just eating meat as a whole
You know who I'm talking about

The Fates Special Edition

The whole way Fates was handled is a big problem
Separating into two versions(and a whole DLC path) what should have been the same game is stupid
This is not NoA's fault, it's IS's fault for thinking they're ****ing Pokemon

 

[Burruni]

Time to catch up on topics

I'm kinda disappointed in Chandellure in Pokken. Its FORCED to be cute and is not enough of a zoner for the highest special attack of any standard pokemon.

I'm not upset that international fates doesn't have skinship because "muh waifus."
It's that it makes actually getting supports with Nohrian characters artificially more difficult IF they don't replace it with something else in My Castle and none of our sources that say it is gone have gone to say that there IS a replacement. So we have to put more effort to learn more about characters because our culture can't handle a little cringe.

Yes I was upset about DLC... and to an extent the base roster. Why? The only new character I had any particular support behind was out of the like 18 we got. This after Brawl hitting... like... 8 of them and the biggest surprise for a Pokenerd could imagine. I still would argue against certain inclusions. But whatever. Its there and being upset can't change a damn thing so I might as well try to enjoy the characters we have from a more objective view and grumble over my breath on one of my top 10 being knock into beyond slim hopes by one inclusion.

 

[Naoshi]

I find this really odd.

Because even if they own part of the rights to Bayonetta 2, they don't own the character or IP.

Or do they?

Nintendo funded Bayonetta 2, so they pretty much partially (dunno by how much) own the content of that game.

By the way, if there's ever a Bayo3, I think there's a chance it's gonna stick with Nintendo's systems. Given that Bayo 2 didn't sell all that well, I don't see Sony or Microsoft or anyone else wanting to fund a game that may evidently fail just like the last time. Bayonetta 2 almost never happened because the first game sold poorly before all the price cuts. So Platinum did not have the funds to risk a sequel like that. So with Nintendo having a ton of money funded 2, so it became a much safer game to produce thanks to that. Of course, Sony and Microsoft could bother funding a Bayo 3 but I don't see them doing that because they don't seem to wanting to spend money on that since they didn't the first time. But of course, things can change.

I think Nintendo has a better advantage now than they did before with Bayonetta being in Smash. I can see the a bit of the audience growing there thanks to that.

From what I've heard, the skinshipping only marginally affects the support. Of course, take what I said with a grain of salt, I don't have actual proof. lol

Although if I'm wrong, I kinda question why they thought it was a good idea to make things difficult without having to subject people into using a feature that many might feel is cringe. I sort of feel they didn't think this through if you're right.

I don't know HOW much it raises support.
But in the mode where you are limited in battles for the whole campaign, any boost is appreciated.

Edit: I've tried to keep my knowledge outside of mechanics to a bare minimum with Fates. So I am not a good source for knowledge on it.

 

[Deleted member]

I'd like to note that in Birthright, spotpass/streetpass battles are treated as a normal battle, meaning you get exp and stuff
In Conquest, you don't get exp but from what I heard you do get support points or whatever it's called

 

[Cutie Gwen]

Looking at the Bayonetta footage, I'm surprised, Usmash has a small amount of starting lag, and Dsmash sadly is pretty laggy. Very impressed though

 

[IceBreakerXY]

Yeah now that some time has past.Can we talk about how broken witch time is?

 

[NintenZ]

Bonnie is gonna definitely be muh main.

 

[Naoshi]

i cant stop watching the video of the bayonetta stage. it looks so good

 

[Bedoop]

To be fair
The DSmash can Spike as hard as a Wizard's Foot and can hit people grabbing the ledge
If it wasn't Laggy it'd be the new Palutena USmash
Except on an actually good character

Out of curiosity, what version does Revelations as a whole take after?

Yeah now that some time has past.Can we talk about how broken witch time is?

We'll probably have to see it more in action, as Shulk's Vision can be pretty cheap as well. Like most counters you'll have to hit with a direct attack, it just means that the reward is different for when projectiles hit (invincibility+attack vs. reduced damage). If her speculated poor frame data (frame 9 jab?) is to be believed it may actually balance her when fighting rushdown characters.

For the moment, I'm just happy to see her Up-Special has significantly less knockback compared to ZSS's given how she drag you up top with her base combos.

 

[NintenZ]

I wonder why we haven't seen any footage of and together?

I thought the Bat Within was when you screw up the timing if my memory of the Direct serves me
Which is odd because unless Witch Time is like a 1-frame window because you never really see Bayo prep a counter with Bat Within, it just sorta happens
IDK

 

[Deleted member]

In terms of gameplay, it takes more after Birthright
It's still the middleground in terms of difficulty but resources aren't as limited as in Conquest

 

[Burb]

Guys...

The speculation era ended in December....

Mostly, at least.

There was that small camp of people who insisted we're still getting Wolf.

 

[NintenZ]

Anyone find it funny that both times there was a popularity poll* a SEGA character won?

*Word used suggestively.

I think that's part of it, it just changes the reward for a successful bait, which is pretty fair as the time slow status looks pretty powerful (higher risk/greater reward); Best comparison might be Ike's Paralyzing Counter, which isn't as strong a status/is more % based, but has no sweet/sourspots.

I just wish Mewtwo got a better reward for being able to land Disable...

Does it have a World Map system like FE2/8/13/BR?

Naw man, it ended in reality.

Those were just the people who insisted on staying at camp even though a forest fire was raging nearby. :V

 

[Substitution]

Oh right the whole video thing.
Eh, I'll watch it later.

Guys...

Let's be honest, it's never going to end.
Even after everything has been said and done, people will still cling on to whatever they think is hope.

So basically;
Get it right on the nose = Free Smash Attack of your choice or Otherwise (Imagine jumping off the edge, Witch Timing a foe in the air and giving 'em a one-way ticket to hell in the form of a Down Smash)
Not perfect, but you still did a good Counter = Less Damage than normal and you get to escape the situation
Mess Up = Reconsider your life choices

Also I feel you with Disable
All the time finding the perfect opportunity and all you get is a stun that lasts barely long enough to charge a FSmash at most when the foe doesn't know how to mash at mach speeds
F
