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

Good Lord! The hell is she smuggling in that shirt of hers? 'Cause it ain't human!

Yeah, they definitely look fake. Like "I lack self confidence and have issues" fake.

People are calling Paris an inside job.

Wow... No.

 

[Cutie Gwen]

People are calling Paris an inside job.

Wow... No.

Why do we always have lunatics like this? This happened with 9/11 too iirc. It always has to be an inside job because any country wants a ****ton of people to die during this ****

I dont know if you guys remember this, but I did breakdown the type of Mii Fighters costume per wave before. Should help make predicting what costumes we will get easier!

 

[Deleted member]

Nothing will ever make predicting costumes any easier.

I read 'animal related' as 'anime related' which is a funny coincidence considering some dumb is trying to argue why Hatsune Miku would be a great addition in Smash because of Cloud

What defines character related?

 

[PushDustIn]

Nothing will ever make predicting costumes any easier.

1-2 Fighter related (a costume of a fighter already in the game)
2-3 3rd Party
2-3 character related
1-2 generic/animal related

Is what we should expect.

What defines character related?

Character related is other Nintendo characters that aren't fighters. Chrom, K. Rool, etc.

Before the last Wave, each Wave had a set of 8 costumes (some headgear only, some outfit only)*. The last Wave had 7.
Ergo, I don't follow patterns when it comes to future costume DLC.

I'm also doubtful on any other "animal-based" costumes, seeing as each animal corresponds to a single Mii Style. Cat for Brawler, Monkey for Swordfighter, Bear for Gunner.


*The K.K. Slider costume was unrelated to a Wave and instead came free with the update for everyone after Japan got a promotion with it for 7-11, so it is excluded.

 

[Ivander]

Character related is other Nintendo characters that aren't fighters. Chrom, K. Rool, etc.

And Fighter-related is Link, Samus, Fox and C. Falcon? Okay, I was about to ask that question myself, but luckily it came quicker than I thought.

 

[Cutie Gwen]

Character related is other Nitnendo characters that aren't fighters. Chrom, K. Rool, etc.

What's a 'Nitnendo'?

 

[PushDustIn]

What's a 'Nitnendo'?

The evil twin of Nintendo.

Pretty sure no one likes IS. The odds of this being WW3 are next to nil.

If anything, it'll end with the Western world blowing the hell of of the ME.

Considering the most of the Middle East aren't total pricks, that might cause WWIII.

The biggest issue with dealing with IS are where they operate and the innocent people they've gotten involved. Attacking their bases is one thing, but they have control of and hide in several cities and villages that are filled with civilians. It makes avoid casualties difficult. And inciting a pseudo civil war is just as bad as attacking them directly...

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

I still don't see why people argue that comberbatch or whatever his name is played Khan well in Star Trek

He was NOTHING like Khan

 

[Swamp Sensei]

Fighting against terror groups is a very tricky business because well...

How do you tell who's who?

It's the same problem that the Korean and Vietnamese wars had.

 

[Radical Bones]

Does anyone here use Crunchyroll to watch anime?

Is it good? It just seems easier to stream this stuff these days...

Unless there's something I'm missing, most of the Western world would most likely band together to deal with IS.

ISIS sure.

You originally said Middle East.

 

[Shroob]

ISIS sure.

You originally said Middle East.

Oh, well ya. Isis is the main threat(Though I'd put Iran as a close 2nd). I'm just sad that there's most likely going to be countless innocents mixed up in the gunfire.


But I must admit, is war, politics, and religion really what we should be discussing on a smash related site? Don't we all come here to speculate and have fun, and not to droll on about how painful reality can be?

 

[Parallel_Falchion]

I personally approve of Crunchyroll.

I like both in good proportions. Besides tons of game deals with real world themes. It's only natural that it bleeds out into what we talk about every now and then, especially with these recent events.

But it's only a matter of time before we're arguing about Ridley and Geno and censorship again, so no worries there.

You might want to check out COIN (COunter INsurgency) from 2009, in particular the components of COIN from page 17. This is basically how the US State Department purposes to fight against insurgency groups around the world.

I like to keep my science and politics separate, thank you

I heard that people called the Victory Theme in Cloud's trailer was a remix.

I compared it to the original theme.

My gosh, they're right.

Is that one of our remixes?

 

[Chrono.]

I'm thinking the latter part of Cloud's victory theme will override the usual results theme.

 

[Kenith]

Yeah, the battle aftermath theme from FF7 will mostly likely play instead of the usual results screen theme.
The first character to have this.

They really gave FF7 a lot of love.

Hm...

I wonder if that could work for any of the other series we have...

Um...

I can't think of any really.

Perhaps Golden Sun or Tales Of if they get characters.

 

[Kenith]

New avatar. The resemblance between the two characters is uncanny.

The Pokemon characters (trainer / gym leader clear theme)
Mega Man (weapon obtain theme)
Sonic (06, Colors, Generations results theme)

These are good ones.

They should add these in.

One unique one for every character.

This is perfect.

Why is this not a thing?

 

[Chrono.]

Animal Crossing Wild World will be on the eshop.

[Kenith]

I would prefer that Cloud was the only one actually, since Final Fantasy 7's victory theme is iconic as all hell and it makes him stand out.

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

Just got an Insomni

Try and figure out what I like about her

Yeah, that one big eye. Totally my type

Edit:

I'm ACTUALLY after her red headed sister. I like Insomni's design more, but "Sandi" is more powerful

They're doing Animal Crossing on WiiU in every way except the one we want.

The Wii U is as good as dead, I wouldn't be surprised if a main AC game skipped this console.

Uh... I certainly d-don't know o-of any games that could u-use it

Spoiler

Oops, sorry, I dropped this

just let me dream, okay?

 

[Swamp Sensei]

That's a bit much.

It's not dead.

Just... struggling.

Well at any rate, I don't expect anymore major titles after Zelda U and Star Fox Zero.

My current ORAS Nuzlocke team is:

Alakazam
Shiny Gyarados
Rhydon
Medicham
Magnezone
Vileplume

Yeah. I think I might be successful this time around.

Seriously, the difficulty level in Gen 6 games is weak.

I'm gonna go back and Nuzlocke Gen 4.
