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

[Burruni]

Takamaru seems like the obvious retro pick next game

"Obvious" and "Retro pick" are contradictions. That's part of the issue.
Like "sure thing" and "f-zero character"

He was for Smash 4 too.

 

[Dravidian]

To be fair, some clothing sets show skin on women when they don't for men, and multiple times I was left under the impression that I just desperately wanted Sharla to wear something an actual human would wear other than her default armor set.

Fortunately XCX actually fixed this to a large degree with Fashion Gear.

The other two things I agree are pretty ridiculous if not outright rage inducing, though.

I'm actually nearing the end of the first Xenoblade (I was busy and didn't game as much last year because reasons) and I was actually slightly annoyed by some armor options and character designs. Why wear a proper top when you can have a spiral nipple ring/pastie thing...

But that said, aside from a few armor sets and characters I don't feel they went unreasonably out of their way to show more lady skin.

"Sure thing" and "Wolf"(or "Mewtwo)" are also good examples of contradictions.

In Xenoblade X feels like they're split in two, one armor can either be practial big and ugly and the other is just TNA (not that one).

At least some of the guy's armor is just as skimpy but still.

Four kinds.
Clunky
Sex Appeal
Casual War
Warframe

But was.

And Wolf isn't quite a contradiction. Or else... well.... Everyone is.

Mewtwo wasn't a sure thing. He didn't get into the base game. Luckily he got in as DLC, but only cause Sakurai decided to do DLC. I'm still glad he's back, regardless.

I'm working on that Roc creature I mentioned earlier. I've got an idea for the backstory, but I don't know how big the backstory needs to be.

 

[LIQUID12A]

And Wolf isn't quite a contradiction. Or else... well.... Everyone is.

Outside of possibly King K. Rool before he was King K. Mii'd, there really wasn't another character deemed a community-wide sacred cow with supposed nigh-infallible chances of getting in as DLC(thus a "sure thing"). Maybe Isaac, but that's more due to the echo chamber the site has since there were actually more than a few people questioning his chances.

And the rest is history since the sacred cow was slain and dumped in a box.

 

[Bedoop]

but only cause Sakurai decided to do DLC.

I thought Mewtwo got in because Sakurai heard the demand and was going to make him a Club Nintendo exclusive and nothing else until Iwata-san suggested DLC
Of course, that's just my fuzzy memory.

Well, he was still DLC even like that. But I don't remember. Sakurai still did some form of DLC, which is part of why Mewtwo got in.

Damn, now I can't help but think of K. Roolburgers.

 

[Burruni]

Gator meat is actually delicious
Source: I lived in Texas for 10 years and a LOT of Louisianna-styled food immigrated to my area when we took in survivors from Katrina.

 

[LIQUID12A]

Damn, now I can't help but think of K. Roolburgers.

I actually meant Wolf when talking about the sacred cow, but sure, K. Roolburgers with a side of Wolfries. We also have the option of an alcoholic Bandanna Deesert consisting of Isaake with an Inkling of Ice Climbream covered in rum.

You should totally order this stuff in quick succession, it'll rock your world. Maybe even Smash it.

I am so hungry right now....

I'm hungry now too. And I finished dinner just a little while ago.

Except you're not hungry. Your body lies to you.

All you need is a glass of WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAtermelon juice.

Basically.
Mewtwo was planned to be added later in; but as a reward for people who bought both copies of the game.
The "lip-service" justification for the full promotion was the idea that multiple kids with 3DS in the same family wouldn't all be able to link to the WiiU to gain Mewtwo and thus he was promoted up to full-scale DLC.

 

[Opossum]

Who is your favorite Disney Infinity character that you play as (And who is your main on that game)?

Personally I love using Aladdin and Captain Jack Sparrow. Aladdin's playstyle just clicks with me and boomerang scimitars are neat, and I've had Jack since 1.0. He gets really good when you upgrade his skill tree to maximize his rate of fire on his gun.

Though Captain America's in the running too. Super jump.

 

[SuperMii3D]

He was for Smash 4 too.

Well wasn't he going to be in, the only thing that stopped him was the lack of people that were familiar with him.

He wasn't.

He was considered but decided against.

Since we were talking about what music we might add to Smash with that upcoming hack:

Codename S.T.E.A.M: "Codename FE" (FE stages)
https://youtu.be/C-7kIIP61Jg

Yoshi's Woolly World: "Lava Scarves and Red Hot Blarggs" (on Woolly World)
https://youtu.be/YqlIM2FiMGw

Rodea the Sky Soldier: "Face Reality" (on Mario Galaxy)
https://youtu.be/x6ej399ukBE

Rosalina's Comet Observatory (Fan-made Rock Remix)(on Mario Galaxy)
https://youtu.be/Gn_ltqq-lD0

Just a few I thought I'd share.

I've been feeling like garbage, none of my close friends have been talking to me lately. I can't tell if they're just busy, my skype connection is garbage, or if I'm just a nuisance...

I don't feel like garbage about it, but I basically never have close friends to talk to.

My IRL ones are generally too busy and honestly, we could use more common interests I feel. And then there is only one person online who I still consider a close friend that I talk to regularly, though not as much as of late because of busy times.

 

[Deleted member]

It's just that they're usually decently active while for the past week I haven't really seen them at all... But eh, they're probably just busy, as I've noticed some such as my boyfriend have been replying at times where I'm asleep. And then, of course, my phone connection can be so bad at times where it shows that they're online even though they aren't. And vice versa. It's just been irritating. But at least I got one voice chat in this week that resulted in my current avatar. It was pretty fab~. So that made me happy. I just miss them...

Edit: Oh, and I'm also working on a project for them.

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

He was for Smash 4 too.

Really? I never thought so

I am really out of touch with you all.

I also didn't get the whole wolf thing

 

[Shroob]

So, I found this..... warning, it may TRIGGER some of you.

Spoiler: Trigger warning

Well, considering it's on Miiverse, I assume the match.

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

When Jason David Frank plays the character "Tommy" in Power Rangers, he screams "Hiyaaa!" when he attacks and the likes

Well, when he played the Black Dino Ranger, he still did that

...

He got a note from Disney telling him to stop swearing while he attacks. Apparently Disney thought he was hitting enemies and yelling profanities

 

[Burruni]

It's a tradition of things like...

Basically people joking on Miiverse about feelsy deaths.

That's his signature battle cry, m8.

Jason did it but it wasn't as prevalent as Tommy's

I'm rewatching it back from gen 1 and thought about that fact since I just watched the first episode he appeared in.

Disney really didn't like the show very much when they owned it. They were kind of, embarrassed they had it almost

Here's a better joke; the Smash community stopping the ****-measuring contests and acknowledging that Melee and 4 are great games on their own merits

About as likely as achievement points and trophies actually doing something.

Well, mine looks like an echidna's

I mean.
Not the worst name for a show.
DRRR!!, or spoken out "Durarara!!"

The reason? The main-est protagonist rides a motorcycle.
That's what japan thinks a motor cycle revving sounds like.

no there's actually no reason for it
it's totally random
even despite sounding somewhat like dollars and dullahan

Oh yeah

DON'T

In a sense they did but they were getting better with the IP as time went along. Saban got it back and it was sucking like it was at Disney.

The old writers when Saban was at Fox were the true stars

Update on my issues earlier. I was on the first two. My internet is just being garbage(Showing that they're online when they really aren't even though the internet's not even on.) and they're just busy. So it's all good for now. I just hope some things I said didn't scare anyone off....(I didn't say anything too bad, just the usual self bashing.)
