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

After hearing this for the 20th time I didn't this could get better.

I was wrong

Pokémon director Jun’ichi Masuda seems to be heading to E3 this year prompting speculation on whether or not a massive Pokémon announcement will happen at this year's E3.

I think the best part of that set of animations from like 20 different people.

Is how common of a theme it is for Jon to have his shirt burst open.

People's fantasies are thinly veiled.

 

[APC99]

I can't not post this.

TopSpinTheFuzzy is really making a name for himself now. He started as a small Game Grumps animator, and now he's doing stuff for JonTron, Ricepirate, The Big Bad Bosses... Good for him.

I've waited four long years for this! And it was all for the kids, too! This is one of those rare moments in which we all win.

Schnee117 I keep hearing that RWBY is going to end soon. Is it? I doubt it, but I'd just thought I'd ask. I haven't checked on the series in two years.

Volume 3 finale was titled "End of the Beginning"
Plus Monty Oum had enough material to cover about 20 seasons going by a recent livestream. And I'd definitely say there's more than enough material to use considering all the fairy tails, stories, myths and legends they've borrowed from.
And there's Grimm Eclipse on Steam Early Access.

So to quote a certain SPARTAN-II: We're just getting started.

Y'know...I think your on to something with blastoise though

 

[AwesomeAussie27]

That would insinuate there is one there to begin with

(the 360 version, I mean)

I want to install TF2 again because I don't have Overwatch and I'm jealous but I remember TF2 is incredibly boring and I hate the community because it's mostly 12 year olds who watch "cringe video" compliations

I don't know why, but your signature is very mesmerizing.

Bayonetta seems to be having some fun with that stretch.

I thought this looked pretty good.
Then I saw Flappy Bird. And Arceus.
And Banjo and Kazooie as separate characters. And all four Pac-Man ghosts as separate characters.
Not getting into the fact a roster with tons of characters from different companies is 20% Mario.

I remember Monty saying that, which is why I thought it was a little odd to have all of that material but only have RT make like three seasons. Good to know my assumption was wrong. I should get back into it when I have the chance.

 

[Kirby Dragons]

For some reason, I just enjoy using more icons.

You missed:
Chun-Li
Zelda
Rosalina
Bayonetta
Mii?
Greninja
LARA CROFT .;w[p;]''[]'['/]'#@[]/'']#?;.;

Remove Bird. Now.

Also....Sceptile but not Greninja? Really?
Bayonetta should be there too. She's like Dante but bit less popular right now. Plus her appearance in Smash makes her very recognizable and arguably tops DMC as the Queen of the genre in terms of quality ect.

 

[Wario Bros.]

Happy Singles Awareness Day!

I've been hearing there has been bogus Pokémon Go "registrations" going around. I'm still not sure if I'll download the LEGIT one when it actually comes.

Dont take this to personally.But this arrangment is so badddddd.The pokemon,mario,and sonic characters are all over place.It just looks ugly.Like Plus i wouldn't consider flappy bird...bird?An iconic character he was at best a fad character.No lara croft,jill or chun-li.And why classic sonic but modern tails and knuckles,plus why is banjo and kazooie seperated as well as rachet and clank

 

[Substitution]

The only things I could say is maybe cut down on the Mario and Pokemon characters (even just having Mario and Pikachu would work). And maybe group up a few (Ratchet + Clank, Pac-Man Ghosts, Banjo + Kazooie, etc).

Sometimes less is more.

 

[Schnee117]

RT are the same guys that have a show that started as two teams at opposite ends of a canyon go on for coming up 14 seasons whilst giving it an actual story.

People thinking RWBY would have so few volumes need to chill out considering RWBY's story has been planned out a fair bit whilst RvB is literally improvisation done well.

Then there's the show born from Gavin accidentally calling Ray "X-Ray" in an achievement guide video.

 

[Wolfie557]

How could you do this to me.

The first 20 or so minutes was the best part for me. That was interesting. Then it went samey and there were only cameos of the things I actually wanted to see aka the big name things aka Sonic ect. But Valentine von sweets was adorable. :3

Again, take away sceptile. Anything past gen 1 is not know by the general public, and even in the core gaming society, he is not considered an icon.

Still this is very nice! And good call on the ghosts,

Especially since let's be honest.

Everyone knows the pacman ghosts,

but almost no one knows they actually have names

How can this game have more Pokemon than Smash?
And both Squirtle AND Blastoise scream bias
Also, literally only one of them isn't from gen 1 and it doesn't even make sense

 

[MainJPW]

Nothing. Amy's more iconic than Shadow.

The arrangement is better but it just makes the oversaturation of Mario and Pokemon characters way more obvious.
And Sony's characters still aren't arranged. Nathan Drake, Kratos, Sackboy, and Ratchet & Clank should be together.

 

[BluePikmin11]

It's impossible to please everyone, I'll just say that.

 

[A Distant Demon]

It's impossible to please everyone, I'll just say that.

^this

Especially because people have different criteria for iconic

I just don't understand how Sceptile can be put there, let alone over Blaziken which is way more popular.

I'd replace Shadow with Eggman, and use a modern Sonic icon (it looks out of place since Tails and Knuckles use their modern designs).

I'd also remove Sceptile.

It's missing Phoenix Wright and Professor Layton, while having Shadow, Sceptile, and both Squirtle and Blastoise looks a little odd. Other than that, it looks alright.
