So yeah, Dread is probably shaping up to be GotY.

I have high hopes for Pokémon, so that could be a contender, but TBH I doubt it'll reach the heights Dread does: Dread is fantastic.

BDSP?

I dunno man, would that really be GOTY? It doesn’t really break new ground.

Unless you meant your personal GOTY, in which case it’s totally subjective and I’ll shut up now :nifty:

Wow, that final confrontation with Raven Beak was fantastic. Such a challenging fight and the cinematography in the cutscenes was badass.

Also it was cool as **** to see Samus go full Metroid and start draining fools, although I'm still a little confused about how Quiet Robe X just took it away from her. Is it gone completely or did he just help her control it?
My best guess is that the Thoha DNA from Quiet Robe suppressed the Metroid DNA in her. It's mentioned that Thoha had an ability to control them so an X with one's DNA would've subdued her rampant Metroid side.

While Smash Ultimate is coming to an end, I still got PMEX Remix updates to look forward to.

Speaking of which, it's been a while since the last major one.

It's still Chibnall so I have like

Zero hope for it

But whenever they do Whittaker's regeneration episode next year, I'll check that out.
Gonna be bittersweet to see that regeneration. Whittaker was a great Doctor surrounded by wack writing. Just got real unlucky I guess.

So

Say, hypothetically, I decided to plug a personal project I've been planning out on SmashBoards.

Would this be the optimal place to post it so it got more attention, or is there any other threads for self-advertisement? I saw there's a thread for that sort of stuff, but it hasn't had a post in months and I don't think many people go there.

So, just for fun, I made a tier list that kind of describes each Smash character's "voice history". Did their voice change between games, does their VA not reprise their role, etc. Not 100% sure how to describe it well, but ya should get a general idea of how it works once ya look at it. This actually took a bit of research to do, haha.
Now, four things I should mention here.

1. The "VA from their game(s) reprises their role" tier is for characters who's VA has voiced them ONCE in a game before. So they may not be voicing them now. For example, David Hayter no longer voices Snake, but he has voiced Snake in the Metal Gear Solid games before, so Snake is included in that teir.
2. The "mixed bag" tier is for characters who have multiple voice actors. Not counting Olimar and his Pikmin because I'm lazy
3. This tier list reflects the English dub of Ultimate.

And now, a few character's who's placements I should probably elaborate on!

Greninja, Incineroar, Jigglypuff, Lucario - These characters' VAs first voiced their characters in the Pokemon anime, and not in Smash.
Palutena - In Kid Icarus: Uprising, Palutena is voiced by Ali Hillis. In Smash, she's voiced by Brandy Kopp. Kid Icarus: Uprising was a union project, while Smash Bros. Ultimate is a non-union project. It's difficult to explain, but in short, Ali Hillis most likely didn't reprise her role since she's part of a union.
Steve - In Minecraft, when you took damage, an "oof" sound effect when play. This was removed in a later update. While this "oof" is a stock sound effect, someone had to record it, so... I'm counting it as voice over.
Pokemon Trainer - The Pokemon Trainer's voice actor has never voiced the character before.
Squirtle - Michele Knotz had never voiced Squirtle prior to Smash, but she later went on to voice him in Pokemon Journeys: The Series
Ivysaur - Ivysaur's VA from the anime does not reprise their role.
Charizard - Charizard's VA from the games reprises their role.
Zelda - In Ultimate, Zelda is voiced by two people, believe it or not! Her voice actress in-game is the same as her voice actress from Link Between Worlds. In World Of Light's opening cutscene, however, she is voiced by Brandy Kopp, who has never voiced Zelda prior to Smash.

Yup, knew I was bound to make a slip up somewhere there, haha-

Just pretend that Wolf is in the "Voiced by a different VA in Smash who later went on to reprise their role in their game(s)" tier that I just now made up.

Verde Coeden Scalesworth Verde Coeden Scalesworth maybe I’m misremembering but I feel like a while back you were talking about this “Haunting of” or “Haunting at” series or movie or something. What was it called again? I at first thought it was Netflix’s Haunting at Hill House but maybe not

though if you didn’t say such a thing you can disregard this lmao

I still say Clara was perfectly fine and I never understood the major criticisms 😤
I really didn't enjoy the focus on her relationship with Danny. I liked Danny, I liked Clara, but they never felt..... like an actual couple, if that makes sense? It felt very forced, like, they wanted you to feel bad at the end of the arc without actually earning it. Didn't help at all that a large majority of Capaldi's first season was just "We're in London, again!"


Missy tho? Missy was ****ing based and I LOVED her.

Okay yeah that's fair. As a Dan myself, that Danny did not live up to the hype.

The only Bond movie I’ve seen is Goldeneye, lemme tell you that Goldeneye 007 on N64 follows the source material very well.

HOLY MARY MOTHER OF GOD, the X outbreak was brilliant! It felt like an entirely new twist on 343 Guilty Spark, only the main alien that wants to kill you did it solely to spite you instead of releasing it on accident and running for their lives. This whole experience has been drop-dead amazing.

Yeah, the bosses aren't anything you wanna panic over. It all takes analysis of their different attacks, and plotting how to dodge them appropriately.
It was just a joke. A funny haha. A timely jest. :4pacman: I know how Metroid games are. I don't think anyone's going to get these bosses on their first try.

He's still Evil Superman tho. Like, nothing can be justified
I suppose we’re meant to have some sort of support and justification over whether Supes is truly evil to us or is a good man even while broken (well…before Injustice 2 that is)…or whatever it is that Ed wants the majority to think. Honestly the only side I’m on within the world of Injustice is Plastic Man and the Turtles.

only person I can think of to compare him to is Punisher I guess
