Eh, who cares about graphics. It's a fighting game.

Normally I’m the last person to care about graphics. But ultimate is basically perfect in every other area so it sticks out to me.

I’ve personally seen Banjo’s victory screens over a hundred times and I think he looks just fine

But the fur! It’s a single blocky shape and yet has shading on it to make it looks like it’s individual strands of hair! It looks dreadful! Imo they should have tried to stay far away from realistic textures.

[Guh-Huzzah!]

The whole "textured on fur/hair" technique is pretty common. Especially in a game like Smash, where the characters are a wee bit small on the screen, you usually won't be seeing that detail up close. And even up close, it looks good in my opinion. The textures are detailed enough and serve their purpose well.

I’ve had my pfp as Brook for way too long at this point. Time for a change again.

 

[Lamperouge]

Yeah, Smash Ultimate is a nice looking game.

Could it look even better? Probably, but it does a great job with the hardware it's on.

 

[MooMew64]

IMO I adore Ultimate's aesthetic over Smash 4's simply because it's soooo much easier on the eyes.

Like, my word, Smash 4 just dialed the saturation up to 11: It was too vibrant, IMHO.

I don’t know how I’m gonna handle E3 now that I know I’m working a full shift on Tuesday. I don’t want to go entirely off the radar for an entire day, but I also want to genuinely react to the reveals at E3. Maybe I’ll just watch it during my break? idk.

Brawl was too muddy and “realistic”

Smash 4 was too poppy with its colors.

Ultimate is just right.

Spoiler

But none of them are as good as smash 64

There was a problem fetching the tweet

jinkies...probably

No Scooby Doo in that universe? Why even make it a spin off at that point? Why not just make it an original series with an original character inspired by Velma or whatever?

I don't get it.

I looooooooove low-poly models. Legit, they are my aesthetic, man.

I wish we had 64 skins for everyone in Ultimate. Like, I would legit buy a costume pack like that. IMAGINE HOW CUTE LOW-POLY INKLING WOULD BE.

Because existing IPs sell.

Why risk time and money on an original character when you can just bank off nostalgia?

Whatever's cheapest to make, but in turn will get the most eyes on it due to brand recognition.

If we're being totally honest, they're probably doing this to see if other Scooby Doo characters can get a spin off assuming that Velma is successful, which I'll be all for.

However, I don't think anyone has ever asked for a Daphne spin off, so eh...

We'll learn the childhood trauma that got Fred way into traps.

Didn’t they do a Velma & Daphne spin-off already?

Baka and Test.

Look here you little...

They did.

It was a live action movie, it doesn't count.

Actually I don’t wanna know about that…

 

[Zinith]

Some characters just work better in context to the other characters they interact with rather than on their own coughsheencough

Well the obvious joke was made already

 

[PLATINUM7]

If there are any Scooby-Doo characters I wouldn't mind seeing a spin off focus on them without the other cast appearing it would be The Hex Girls.

Clock is ticking
Soon, 4 days left
One reveal, or two?
Will everything leak?
Or will we go in blind?

I read this as “will we go blind” and I just accepted that as a legitimate E3 possibility.

E3
Brought to us by the last boss from Balan Blunderworld

 

[TheMightyP]

What's the likelyhood Nintenso announces that 3D All Stars is actually here to stay after all, but as seperate games.

E3

Balan is CP10.

His only moves are jump.

His stage has cameos from the bosses, and they all trigger bright flashing lights.

And the best part

You don't even get to play as him.

The game does it for you.

I think it’s likely they sell em as separate, 60$ games. But I think they’ll just leave things as is.

Arlo released his first E3 expectations video.

 

[SnakeFighter64]

Weird question. If Alucard (from Castlevania) were revealed for a fighting game, what song from symphony of the night would be most appropriate to play in his trailer?
