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

[Wario Bros.]

I almost forgot that I still have download codes from the Humble Nintendo bundle of games I already own.

Still need to decide how to give them away.

 

[Curious Villager]

I'm working on a Niko Toon Link alt (Inspired from Hyrule Warriors Legends) myself, I'll show it once its done too.
Hopefully no one beats me to it.....

 

[Z25]

Going off of what Zoroarking said

Spoiler: Civil War

Not only is there the bait and switch aspect, but from a character standpoint, what Zemo did makes perfect sense. He doesn't want there to be so many powered people. He's seen firsthand the destruction they can cause. Zemo's incredibly calculated, so everything he does is to advance his own agenda.


Honestly that's also what makes Zemo such a great villain. He won. He succeeded in tearing the Avengers apart. The only thing he failed at was his attempted suicide, ironically enough. The MCU's gotten a bit of a reputation for rather weak villains, barring guys like Loki, Grant Ward, Kingpin, and Kilgrave (the latter three being from the tv shows, allowing for more time for development). I'm glad Zemo didn't fall into that sort of "trap" at all.

Spoiler

Fair enough. I understand the bait and switch thing, and it wasn't bad, but it made enough sense. He was definitely interesting as a villain. He setup everything quite well, and as I said, it will be neat to see what they do with the fractured relationships they have with the avengers now. I also am curious as to when we will see him again. He didn't have his full get up, so I wonder if that will happen in one of the later Marvel movies.

Roger Smith mentions you last night and then you magically appear.

It begins! I wonder how long until one gets used in a fake leak like that mewtwo one.

"Hello (insert forum name here), I come today with an exciting leak! Smash Bros is indeed getting ported to the NX. Here are some pictures of pallete swaps, and a new character, Shadow the Hedgehog. Don't mind the graphics, it's just in the concept phases right now, but it's totally legit! You will all see in due time!"

 

[Kingslime304]

I find it funny that Awakening suggests that Stahls Gimmick is being the last person to do things while his REAL gimmick, is being an average joe, and a Eager eater. Also for being a main character, I wish Chrom had more support conversations (Especially Donnel/Chrom considering Donnels prologue) even if his marriage is scripted.

 

[Champ Gold]

I finally beaten Black 2 despite the Elite 4 giving me trouble.

I freaking love the PWT. Also I decided to do my take on a 30-man roster for Smash

Vets:




Newcomers:
Inklings
Gen 7/8 Pokemon

Yeah, so who wants some free 3DS/Wii U games from the Nintendo Humble bundle? Here are your choices (with memory sizes):

• Shantae and the Pirate's Curse (Wii U) - 301 MB
  
• Shantae and the Pirate's Curse (3DS) - 2,312 blocks
  
• Freedom Planet (Wii U) - 326 MB

I'm offering them all of them free of charge. But I've made some rules/notes:

• I am doing a strict first come, first serve rule.
  
• These are for North American 3DS/Wii U systems. Other regions can't take them.
• Make sure you have enough free space (games sizes posted above) before you ask for them.

EDIT: ALL GONE! Congrats to those and enjoy!

 

[Yomi's Biggest Fan]

Tfw when people believe Kirby can bust solar systems because of Dark Nebula's "awakening".

That's also my face when people think Naruto can defeat Goku.

But let's be real, this looks nowhere near actual solar system busting at all. If it was, how come Kirby or the crystal ground is not affected by the "blast". I think it's simple reality warping in Gamble Galaxy instead of real destruction.

 

[Wario Bros.]

Freedom Planet is now no longer available. Four games left.

I'm kinda interested in Pirate's Curse actually, so I'll take that one (Wii U version).

Be prepared for a great little Metroidvania

(And the best NG+ a game of this genre could give you)

 

[AwesomeAussie27]

That's also my face when people think Naruto can defeat Goku.

This is why I don't take the Naruto fandom serious in anyway. I remembered when everyone hyped up the possibility of him being a planet buster thanks to The Last: Naruto The Movie. While he can barely block an attack that sliced the artificial moon in half near the film's climax. Goku survived the worst and nearly endangered the universe with his fight against Beerus.

Can Naruto bust planets? Can he fly at speeds faster than light? Can he last long in a fight against a universal god? These questions would be answered in the most biased way by these fans.

 

[ChikoLad]

This thing can even work on game screenshots.

May I have Street Fighter IV 3D? Pretty please?

No one can forget that day. It was saltier than a track running field when the final ending got revealed.

Shipping wars can never reach that magnitude of crazy unless we involve Hetalia in this. I can tell you all plenty of horror stories I had when being a part of that fandom.

Now only 2 left (Shantae 3DS & Retro City Rampage).

People thought that was dark matter destroying a planet or something?

You had no idea how many times I cringed when I've seen the internet backdraft on the ending.

"**** you Kishimoto, Sakura is better than that ugly ****!"

"This is the worst ending ever. What the hell happened with Orochimaru!"

"The kids look ugly as ****. It feels more like a fanfiction than a real ending."

Glad that my fellow One Piece fans can get that bad unless it involves long arcs like Dressrosa.

]Shipping wars can never reach that magnitude of crazy unless we involve Hetalia in this. I can tell you all plenty of horror stories I had when being a part of that fandom.

Believe me, I've seen enough of the fandom to realize how cringey or insane the fangirls can get (You don't even compare to the worst fans). The few male Hetalia fans are sane in comparison to them. They take shipping too damn serious or hate on female characters for getting in the way of there ships. That's why I've strayed away from the fanfiction or Hetalia communities easily.

 

[AwesomeAussie27]

Not just a planet, but a solar system just because of the change of background.

It's pretty dubious at best and couldn't be anything more destructive than a supernova.

If its still available I guess I'll take Shantae for the 3DS...

Hey Wario Bros. Can i have Rcr please?

So I just noticed this:

And I'm not judging or anything, I liked that game too, but is there a competitive scene for that game? I mean, if there's one for Shrek Super Slam, there's gotta be one for this, right...?

I haven't played that competitively because I couldn't even convince them to play it casually either.

But there use to be a competitive thread on SmashBoards but I think it died due to lack of interest.

I still enjoy that game though.

 

[ChikoLad]

I started Durarara!! today.

It has an Irish character in it, but as expected, she just has an American accent.

That makes me sad.

I loved that game back in the day. Solid party-fighter. Gingy main for life.

Yeah but it only lasts like 3 seconds. It's not a great wall. It's an alright wall.

As a Braum main in League I can confirm this from the amount of Jinx Rockets I've had to block

This was my main from season 2 on.

Spoiler

Him getting buffed out the wazoo in season 3 was amazing. he was already a sleeper top tier back then if memory serves but I was ok with him becoming mainstream because it meant buffs and people knew how to react to ult. He was also the reason I started playing the game in the first place.

Vi was a nearly instant love (after her first super nerf because I hated how OP she initially was).

For support I played a **** ton of Janna and Leona. I also played Taric like 2 weeks before the pros realized how completely broken and stupid his moveset was.

XY&Z028: The Winding Woods... The Dawn of Evolution! (May 26th)
>Serena and the others are worried about Ash after he disappeared into the forest at night and still didn't return by morning, so they all decide to go look for him. But as Ash is lost in the forest, that other Pokémon that disappeared as well appears before him. What is the answer Ash found in the forest?

XY&Z029: Ash Greninja VS Mega Abomasnow! The Giant Water Shuriken Triggers!! (Jun 2nd)
>After interacting with the Pokémon in the forest, Ash has matured a bit further. No longer lost on what to do, Ash once again issues a battle. Ash summons up everything he has gained so far on his journey: The knowledge, the experience and the memories made with the Pokémon. But the ultimate opponent appears before him: Mega Abomasnow.

XY&Z030: Find Carbink! Goodra and Dedenne!! (Jun 9th)
>On their way to Lumiose City, Ash and his friends decide to stop by the wetlands where Goodra lives. Ash and the others are delighted at seeing Goodra again, but then trouble suddenly arrives! Incredibly, a single Carbink appears to be going on a rampage in the wetlands. Ash and his friends attempt to stop the Carbink together with Goodra and the wetland Pokémon, but then Team Rocket show up.

So the XYZ anime sounds pretty good!

Ash loses to Wulfric and he has a Mega Abomansnow. So the fight should be pretty interesting, especially since it seems we could learn more about Ash Greninja.

And it looks like Goodra is indeed coming back! Which means Ash's team is going to be pretty powerful, so I wonder how the league will go from here.


And speaking of XYZ, I just watched the one where Sylveon evolves. IT was actually a pretty good episode. They definitely played around with shipping, and romance but it wasn't done badly, and the actual plot worked well.

I hope they continue to change and adapt the anime to be better as it goes on.

EDIT: The episodes sound quite serious. Which is a different direction then usual.... But I think it will be good.

Japan is definitely way ahead, which isn't all that surprising. Too bad that this news can end up spoiling those who watch the English dub.
