So my friend held a hunger games and I submitted TerminalMontage variants of Latias and Latios for a joke. Turns out they went super saiyan and here are some of my friend's summary on the scenario

Honestly, I don't care who gets in. If I don't like a character that gets added, I know someone else will. Plus, I just care if they're fun, at the end of the day.

I didn't say you guys were necessarily rough. But calling her out as dramatic was a bit too much.
Nobody is making callout posts or anything. I just can't expect someone to deal with an issue if said issue isn't addressed.

How many times can we run hoes mad into the ground before it's not funny?

Trick question, it's not funny already.
Hoes mad was only funny with Hero because he was legit a genre defining character who, IMO, should have been in since 64 looking at it legacywise, abd then his gameplay warranted hoes mad memes because of how ****ing hilarious he is.


And then it stopped being funny come Byleth.

I didn't say or mean that too. I just literally used the wrong words.

All I thought was that you guys could have gone easier, if by a bit. Though I realize she has acted like this for some time now.

I haven't seriously partaken in speculation in a long time. The serious speculators spend years discussing which characters can make it in, despite the number of characters that'll actually make it in being much, much, much smaller than the number of possible characters. And a lot of the characters seen as extremely likely by the community (Dante being an example) don't make it in at all.

So, why are we speculating, or talking about Smash characters? I am not against it, but we don't seem to do that so much.
We used to. Base game speculation was wild, and early dlc speculation was pretty interesting too.

Once Byleth hit Nintendo cracked down hard on leaks, insiders stopped dropping hints as much, they haven’t slipped up and revealed anything they shouldn’t on copyright pages or the sides of boxes. There’s just not as much to talk about.

Yeah, speculation has pretty much died down at this point, but you knew that. We all did.

Were the hoes even that mad at Hero? I don’t remember.

I mean yeah there were whiners, there always are. But I don’t remember it being Byleth levels, especially considering Banjo was soon after.
“Hoes slightly miffed” doesn’t have the same ring

I wouldnt say dying, but it has definitely peaked.
After Sephiroth i think the remaining characters wont exactly be mainstream big names.
Ah, I see.

Well, yep, I agree with all you said. Unless it is Crash that is one of the last two, I may not be too interested. There is no point for even a third Fighters' Pass now, huh?

Peak Ultimate speculation was reveal trailer to Terry. After that the infestation of clout-chasers peddling ridiculous theories or super vague non-claims seemed to rise, then leaks and reveals both dried up for a while, we got hit with some divisive characters and the pool of candidates continued dwindling.

Incidentally, post-Terry was also when we shifted from almost always knowing who was next to pushing ahead mostly blind, which certainly doesn't expedite the process.

M MooMew64 you know more than I do on this topic, do you know if SA1 is on Steam or should I just simply emulate it?

I've always been meaning to play it.
Sorry I wasn’t here earlier, but yes, it is on Steam! But HUGE heads up: You are gonna want to run the SADX Mod installer to get the Dreamcast Conversion mods amongst other things with it, as the modern ports are all based off of the notoriously awful Xbox 360 port.

The mod is super easy to set up, as it comes with an installer I can assure is safe. You’ll find info for installing it in the guides section on Steam, but if you want, I’ll have more free time to go over what you’ll want to grab for the best experience tomorrow after I get home from work!

Indeed. We really had no ideas after Terry dropped. Makes me wonder what happened for that sudden shift to occur.
