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

[True Blue Warrior]

I sense we're getting Shantae in the near future... As our last third-party character...

Don't expect her.

 

[NintenZ]

Don't expect her.

I predict it to be someone from the West... But if not her, than who?

 

[Tree Gelbman]

I hate how Krampus is literally the only Christmas movie coming out after Thanksgiving this year and that's a horror movie.

 

[True Blue Warrior]

Probably no-one. Because third-party characters aren't in for the sake of regional repping. Heck, some Japanese fans thought that Cloud was in to appeal to western fans.

Huh, guess it was just an instinct then, however we'll see what the final outcome will be.

It'd be hilarious if it was the Hornet from Daytona, which would play how it does in Fighter's Megamix.

Let me try this

: Lighting, The Joker and Aerith's Death
: Zero, One and Two
: Ms. Pac-Man, Pac-Devil and Ms. Pac-Devil
: Naked Snake, Nekkid Snake and 18+ Snake
: Omeleteman, Edge the Edgehog and Jesus the Hedgehog OC donut steel

Here's the issue people have with it including me. It was never about difficulty because Pokemon was easy as hell since Gen 1


It's the issue that there nothing to do in those games and that anything extra or post game content is ignored for more focused on multiplayer but that ****ed due to GF not balancing Pokemon's stats but balancing it by adding gimmicks, types and newer evolutions.

You wanna know why people praise Emerald, HG/SS & Gen 5? Because of the extra stuff you get to do along side the multiplayer aspect without shafting one for the other. I can do a bunch of unique stuff and events post-game that isn't just 'catch other legendary Pokemon, an stupid event to catch a legendary that should have been available already and bike simulator'

Rematch Gym Leaders, trainers, Elite 4/Champion, Rivals actually being competent in their training and getting better, Battle Frontier/World Tournament and secret fights like Cynthia in B/W, Alder's Son in B/W2, Steven Stone in Emerald (since Wallace was a champion in that game) and in HG/SS case a much better Kanto, Lance and Clair team up, catching legendaries from past games, revamped Elite 4 and Lance with a much stronger team and the fight with .


It's why people want more games like Collesium/XD, games where it actually IS an RPG instead of a multiplayer game that has RPG elements.

Yes, I do have to admit that post-game content was more plentiful before
But I was talking about difficulty only

But since you brought it up
I really want post-game content back
HGSS had an entire region and the hardest superboss of the series
And B2W2 was probably my favorite: the new old areas that are unlocked after the E4, a bunch of Legendaries to catch, Pokemon ****ing Tournament and small little sidequests
Like one that you might easily miss
In Humilau city, there is an NPC that will ask you to ring the bell on Celestial Tower
You think this is just some random event and he'll give you an item or something if you do so
But if you go there after agreeing to do so, you'll find some maids trying to stop you and naturally, you have to fight them
And that was something I never expected on a Pokemon game
Which honestly makes me wish Pokemon games had more of these small sidequests

The one thing that bothers me the most about these, not speciffically this kne since ot's supposed to be like that
Why is there a need to take a picture of the screen instead of, you know, taking a screenshot of the page?
Seriously, I would believe website leaks more if they were done like that
This way it just screams tryhard
Like the Cloud release date leak

This is why I stopped trusting the Reddit for news. . . The worst part is people in the comments actually believing it.

I was joking when I said that was Tracker I didn't know it was actually him

 

[NintenZ]

God, @TrackerTD I think you have a case of the Mikus...

[AncientTobacco]

Why is there a need to take a picture of the screen instead of, you know, taking a screenshot of the page?

The blur makes it harder to scrutinize the image and for whatever reason some people think it makes it look more "legit".

At this point it's pretty much joke, though. Which is why you might sometimes see "Not blurry enough" as a mocking response to fake pic leaks.

What a randon time to make Cloud's trailers public... considering we have literally no other news about him still.

If all 6 third parties got expanded to 4 characters (including Metal Gear Returning) what would you want them to be? Remember that Pac-Man also covers the Namco Arcade series in general, Mega Man includes the edgier sub series, and Cloud covers all of Final Fantasy (but not Dragon Quest or Super Mario RPG, sorry Geno fans)

My list would be

Metal Gear: Solid Snake, Raiden, METAL GEAR V SPOILERS:

Spoiler

Big Boss (Naked Snake), Big Boss (Venom Snake)

Sonic: Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, Eggman
Mega Man: Maga Man, Roll, Proto Man, Zero
Pac-Man: Pac-Man, Dig-Dug, Valkire, Bravo Man
Street Fighter: Ryu, Ken, Chun-li, M. Bison
Final Fantasy: Cloud, Cecil, Black Mage, Lightning

: Terra Branford, Black Mage, Warrior of Light
: Tails, Knuckles, Eggman
: Starforce Megaman, Zero (GBA version), Volnutt
: Chun Li, M. Bison, Dudley
: Blinky, Valkyrie, Hehachi...? (He's arcade...)
: Gray Fox, Raiden, NES Snake

Looking at the Individual character poll:

Cloud was negatively received by the community before his reveal.
The feedback after the reveal was much more indifferent than negative.

"wow, i am so suprised cloud is in the game, i think he looks cool" (No seriously this is one of the most nonchalant reactions to Cloud that I've ever seen)

And his reason for why he doesn't like Cloud, I've got to say, is kinda petty...

Well looking at Cloud. . .he was placed at 155 of 433

kind of funny.

I have to say that "Too many anime swordsmen" is probably one of the worst excuses for not liking a character that I've heard in some time.

Sill not as bad as "too ugly."

I like anime swordsmen. Thats why Dissidia is so good.

 

[Tree Gelbman]

I hate ''anime swordsmen" in general.

It's stupid in general to call any of the swordsmen in the game anime swordsmen.

Considering not a single ****ing one of them originates from anime.

It just makes you sound dumb and petty in your reasons against them.

Exactly, characters should be looked upon based on how they play and what they have to offer, they shouldn't be grouped together just because of their appearance and how the person doesn't like them.

I predict it to be someone from the West... But if not her, than who?

Yeah I don't really pay attention to that guy, I remember he actually rigged his own poll results so that the winners of it could be Banjo, Rayman, and K. Rool. How he did it, he made the results himself, as he told people that to vote all you had to do was post a comment.

Playing Catch up.

Two words: Crash Bandicoot

Seriously, having Crash will revive the classic 90's fight between Mario, Sonic, and Crash. Closest we're ever gonna get is Crusade and reviving Crash would be gold!

Getting Crash along with his music.
It would be bliss. Bringing him back from the dead. It would put All Star's Roster to shame if he got in.
,, Crash
Not to mention your previous point about the rivalry.
Plus Crash would more than likely get his Ps1 design back :3
Sakurai Magic is a thing I suppose.
One can dream. And Revive Banjo too

It could work for Sonic lol

Despite the origin game.
I love this victory screen music.

Tfw they didn't use "enters the strife" as his tagline.

It's because of the pun on storms I assume.
You know.
Clouds and Storms.
Well at least that's what I gather anyway.

Well, I know Sakurai is very picky on the way he handles his own games.

Though I fail to see how your point in that post.

The wording he used in the E3 Direct is ambiguous in regards to whether or not Lucas and Roy are the last returning veterans. He literally just said they were returning characters from Brawl and Melee respectively and were popular characters among the non-returning veterans.

That itself doesn't imply that there won't be anymore veterans. It could happen? Yes, it could, but I don't see how Sakurai's words were a direct implication there won't be any more veteran characters.

Sakurai said: "Of the many fighters from past versions, I hope fans are happy to have back these two that were particularly popular." He's just saying that he picked two popular characters out of those from previous games. That's all there is to it. I think people are reading too much into things (as usual).

The statement is ambiguous enough that it could mean he either picked those characters for the entire DLC or for that particular wave.

Well, I guess it's best to wait until December. I'm hoping to see both veterans and newcomers for the next wave. There is as much demand for new characters as there is for returning characters, after all.

I will literally jump for Joy if they somehow bring the Climbers back.
You have no idea how hyped it would make me.

"wow, i am so suprised cloud is in the game, i think he looks cool" (No seriously this is one of the most nonchalant reactions to Cloud that I've ever seen)

His reaction with Isaac getting in would be priceless.
In fact scratch that.
The community's reactions of Isaac getting in would be priceless.
Not just for his "Anime" "Swordsman" excuses.
But how out of the blue he would feel for people who don't know of him.
SupportIsaac.

 

[CrusherMania1592]

My heart goes out to all who were affected by the tragic events that we are hearing over the last several days. No one deserves to be put through anything as tragic as these events that we are seeing. I'm praying that we see this as a way to change the world and change the behavior of violence that we are getting. Whatever happened to love? IT'S STILL THERE! Even if there's a small chance, that small chance of love will always, ALWAYS conquer hatred!

Nothing will ever make predicting costumes any easier.

It's simple to predict a mii costume:

First you take all the characters that aren't as highly requested. Then you add them to game as playable characters. Then you look at the most request characters, and there you go! You now have the next mii costume wave!

this is off topic but i need an opinion. is yoshi's wooly world worth buying? i mean i already have the yarn amiibo but i bought it because its so darn cute. so is the game worth a buy?

I wanna know too because it's the next game I want to buy

I'd buy fallout 4 but my PC can't handle it

I'd say it's worth the buy. I have it and have been playing through it. it's fun and the costumes are really cool!
