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

[CroonerMike]

F**k it, I hope we only get Cloud.

Oh it's gonna get rough around here the next few days.

 

[Guybrush20X6]

If you think we'll get more than two new ones you're setting yourself up for disappointment.

 

[Chrono.]

F**k it, I hope we only get Cloud.

Oh it's gonna get rough around here the next few days.

Doing that Joker Sting avatar justice, eh?

Doing that Joker Sting avatar justice, eh?

Like I said, It's gonna get rough around here.

prepare for Mikes Wild Ride.

 

[Schnee117]

I just watched the first episode of RWBY
How can someone be so cute and innocent yet still be a badass at the same time?
And I thought this was supposed to be an anime, why are episodes around 10 minutes? Wait, the second one is 6 minutes long, wtf?

RWBY was a completely new venture for RT back then and they wanted to get them out weekly. Episode 2 is Part 1 for that reason. Same with a bunch of other episodes in Volume 1. Combining the multi-parters puts Volume 1 at 10 episodes whilst Volume 2 had 12 episodes + 4 World of Remnant vidoes. Volume 3's plan is the same as Volume 2 in that regard

 

[Guybrush20X6]

Who we actually need to save this broadcast:

Holy cow, his arms are the size of an entire ReMake Barret each.

 

[Frostwraith]

I don't think we'll be seeing Wolf returning, though I'm hopeful.

 

[DMurr]

So...

The final broadcast...

A) Do you think it means we have one more update?
B) Do you think it means this is the last news we will get?

A) I think this is the last set of content, but they'll keep the team around post release to add fixes for any game-breaking bugs that come out with this update.
B) I don't expect anything really after this.

So how many characters do you think we will get from here on?

Two characters, one stage, which.. if I'm correct should be in line with what the data-mined information shows.
To me that says one new series newcomer+stage bundle, and a character from an existing series (maybe newcomer? maybe vet? We have nothing to base it on).

My hope is that we'll get 3 characters and 2 stages, but we'll see what happens! I'm not really setting my sights really high. I'm not even really excited anymore. Ready for it to be over, honestly.

World of Remnant videos? Are those side stories or something? Because the site where I'm watching says they're OVAs
Oh yeah, and I finally understood that username of yours

 

[Z25]

I'll be sticking around here after the direct. And I expect 2-4 characters.

 

[Deleted member]

I won't quit the site anytime soon. Expect me to get online [on this site] as usual once speculation and DLC end.

 

[Pazzo.]

I just got here. You can't get rid of this caffeine affectionado yet.

 

[CroonerMike]

According to the God of Source Gaming, Don't get your hopes up. He's a prophet.

[tsvlink25]

Les make some New Stage predictions to pass the time!
I'm honestly hoping any of the following happen;

WII U / 3DS
Nintendo Badge Arcade Center

WII U
Paper Mario (3DS)

I love the idea of the badge arcade as a stage. That bunny is freaking adorable.
I also love the idea of a Paper Mario stage on the Wii U--be it the 3DS one, or a different one entirely.
But let's be fair, if we get one and we don't get Paper Mario as well, it'll just feel like a tease

So here's to hoping Paper Mario has a chance.

 

[Swamp Sensei]

So...

How likely would you rate...

At least 2 characters?
At least 3 characters?
At least 4 characters?

 

[Schnee117]

They're lore videos. Volume 2's were voiced by Jen Taylor. Volume 3's are voiced by Best Headmaster ever, of all time.

 

[CroonerMike]

So...

How likely would you rate...

At least 2 characters?
At least 3 characters?
At least 4 characters?

1 Character: Cloud 100%
2: Characters: 0%
3: Characters: 1%
4 Characters: 25%

 

[Pazzo.]

So...

How likely would you rate...

At least 2 characters?
At least 3 characters?
At least 4 characters?

At least 2: 70%

At least 3: 20%

At least 4: 10%

 

[A Distant Demon]

At least 2 characters?

Nearly guaranteed

At least 3 characters?

Not uper likely but not unlikely either

S
At least 4 characters?

Bit of a stretch. Not very likely.

 

[Tree Gelbman]

WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY?!

I work the 15th! During the direct. We had a deal, Sakurai. We were brothers! You were suppose to bring balance to the force! Not thrown it into darkness!

I hate you so much I'm going to go live in a desert until it's time eventually for you to kill me.

Still hate you though!

 

[Chandeelure]

Who we actually need to save this broadcast:

Jax Briggs?

 

[Shadowwolflink]

At least 2: 70%

At least 3: 20%

At least 4: 10%

Reverse, reverse!

Cha cha real smooth.

 

[Deleted member]

So...

How likely would you rate...

At least 2 characters?
At least 3 characters?
At least 4 characters?

At least 2 characters - 100%
At least 3 characters - 5%
At least 4 characters - 2.5%

 

[Bedoop]

So...

How likely would you rate...

At least 2 characters?
At least 3 characters?
At least 4 characters?

Not counting Cloud...
At least 2 Characters = 100%
At least 3 Characters = Less than 50%
At least 4 Characters = Less than 1%

 

[Guybrush20X6]

Only way I can see there being more than 2 is if there's some clones, semi or no.

 

[Opossum]

Assuming Cloud is NOT included in this:

2 New Characters: 100%

Data, yo.

3 New Characters: 20%

I only feel this is possible because it'd make for an even four-and-four. Two released with Cloud, the other announced, but held off until later. This character will be marketed as a "fans' choice" and be released later on.

4 New Characters: 0%

I really don't think we'd get more than three plus Cloud, and three non-Cloud characters are pushing it, IMO.

 

[Bedoop]

clones

CLONEBOYS

@Warchamp7

Why are there 2 Dr. Marios and 2 Young Links

[A Distant Demon]

Phoenix Wright Trials and Tribulations case 4. Damn. Like. . .Damn. All I can say. Quite the ending

Spoiler

I swear the prosecutors are written infinitely better than every other character. Miles, Franziska, and now Godot are all super awesome. Also The coffee breaking in his hand was badass. No denying it.

 

[Senselessbreak]

So for the the direct I'm predicting the following:

Animal Crossing Guy
Exercise Lady
Astroboy
Elsa
Rocky Balboa
Pokemon XY character
Avatars
Pluto and Kazooie
Luke Skywalker

Or something like that.

 

[CyberHyperPhoenix]

15th of December, about time we got something.

This is going to be good

 

[Tree Gelbman]

I'm telling you guys. 2 others with Cloud. Models of the ballot choices.

Trailers for those will be scattered throughout 2016.

 

[[Obnoxshush/Dasshizer]]

Although this is just a rumor, this might be the reason the PMDT dispanded so quickly.

This was found on reddit in the Project M 3.61 Leak Thread.

If this is true then Konami is more underhanded than I thought. Though remember Snake is in Project M. Maybe they have a huge beef about that.

I give this assessment a 11/10.

Here, have some coffee.

 

[Senselessbreak]

So something worth noting. The SK amiibo got delayed until after the direct. For a character that does not belong in Smash, he surely looks more likely every day.

I remember running a tread about straw grasping when the main game speculation was in full swing. Nice to see those times are back. We thought Zelda's phantom was Toon Zelda's other form.

The delay has nothing to do with the direct.

Plus he only got delayed in Europe.

America doesn't even have the damn thing till next year.

The amount of fear you have for something like Shovel Knight being in Smash is starting to become funny to me.
