Social Ultimate Social Thread: Under Construction. Be Back Soon!

[ClaTheBae]

Hey guys remember Smash Bros.?

Neither do I.

I know its a meme at this point but bringing this up is just kind of redundant. Like not trying to be rude or anything but most of our smash centered convos have been pretty dull since we pretty much ran out of smash things to talk about.

 

[Zinith]

Honestly, until the March/April direct rolls around, there's nothing really to talk about except making fun of the spam bots at night.


We live a sad existence.

Well I know what I'd do in the meantime besides talk about politics, hehehe...

Spoiler

Work and write songs

 

[Deleted member]

Do you really think that would stop me

How dare you not reference Doctor Octopus from Spider-Man 2.

 

[Deleted member]

Given how many times this thread has gone of the rails, I'm actually surprised the mods even made another thread like this. Should've just let it die after the previous discussion thread passed.

 

[ClaTheBae]

This is now the Politics thread apparently.

There is nothing political going on right now. What are you on about?

We would have infected Nintenzone.
We had to be contained, even if we would fester and grow.

I dunno, we look like a festering corpse to me.

 

[Noipoi]

I'm just gonna be here, geeking about how amazing The Hidden World was.

Have fun, palerinos.

 

[Double K]

The guy's freaking out over Erica having a ****, implying he's regretting his decision to sleep with the girl because of this. The "joke" in here being that the trans girl is trying to mess with him to question his sexuality. They're making light of a personal matter that trans women have to deal with every day.

Erica's a woman. He's a man. Who cares if she has a **** if he likes her? What an a-hole.

Erica doesn't even have one, it was made explicitly clear that she's fully transitioned by the fact that Toby had absolutely no idea until somebody told him either, which is like

Significantly worse in the long run because Erica is fully transitioned, passing and they still made the joke

 

[Capybara Gaming]

Actually that's not Erica, Erica's the redhead who quite literally went "Haha you nerd you lost your virginity to me I was actually a man"

(That's who I was talking about)

Only at first sight.
If you look closely, we are the bacteria growing on the festering corpse.

 

[Pyra]

You don’t even know where ToasterBrains is, what power do you have?

I'm already going to therapy to try to find myself, man. No need to rub it in

There is nothing political going on right now. What are you on about?

we can make it political

If you vote for me, I promise to compliment everyone here on their personalities.

That is not a bad thing. Geek as you wish.

So what you're saying is we're consuming something that was once alive and well to satiate our own desires and agenda.

Ok have fun!



Now that he's gone let's talk about how much The Hidden World suuucked, man that was a waste of a movie night right guys? Oh yeah next time we're not going to the AMC near my place, they told us we can't after ToasterBrains started a cult and indoctrinated their employees as members. In fact I'm pretty sure there's a warrant out for his arrest now

This thing again? Crono is the name in the US version. Chrono is his Japanese name. There's a difference. Smash Ultimate's site sometimes uses the Japanese spelling(but not it Katakana, Hiragana, or Simplified Chinese) instead. So the idea it uses Chrono instead of Crono has a possibility.

Graizen's correct. Citing the US Chrono Trigger website is meaningless(which wasn't even cited, just a GameFAQs topic). It applies to the official US spelling. Of course it's going to list that. Just like Isabelle is listed on the EN-US Smash Ultimate site when you look at the physical site itself. It has nothing to do with the coding alone. On the US sites, Crono will be viewable till a US remake redubs his name as Chrono. The French version also has Chrono, literally listed among that GameFAQs topic. I'm not sure if people even understood the point Graizen was making anymore. That the site's JSON files used Chrono's Japanese spelling. That was it. Which is why the leak in question doesn't have any spellings actually wrong.

Doesn't give it any real credibility, it just killed the only real thing against it. It's still pretty easy to claim regardless, heh. JSON files can be made by people, though the only picture given was just showing how easy it was to display the words in the coding on the website, not showing a literal leak of an updated website. Leak still is hard to swallow on its own due to just being a text leak in practice, but that's the main thing against it at the moment(that at least makes sense). Other things to think of is if Brave is Fighter 72, which means "Brave" would have to be Crono. Considering Jack seems to be significantly related to Joker, I doubt any heroic character could be Brave. I'd argue it should have some remote significance. It doesn't have to even be a lot, just something that actually would tie to the character. Like, anyone could be courageous. But it should tie to them in various materials. Erdrick's Hero class is effectively called Brave in a way, then there's the whole Brave(Courage) stuff like the Agumon line. Those two directly tie into the characters. I remember some group or whatever(I forget the details) that relate to Yuri from Tales of, which is another example of it being possible. I realized that there was no good way to tell how Brave should relate to the character as soon as Jack wasn't obvious what it meant for Joker(playing cards? Jack of all trades? Jack Frost?), but multiple ways. So as long as the character has a legitimate relation to the word brave(or its synonym courage, perhaps), it feels at least worth noting as a possible character. Of course, that's imo.

My bad, I assumed it was about uhhh what's her name Rin? Cause of the trailer. Did you know that the Japanese government has both a transman and a transwoman in their congress? You'd think something like this wouldn't fly at all. Meanwhile the Yakuza devs removed anti-LGBT content in the remasters, both Japanese and localized versions because "That isn't representative of our franchise and it's not fitting"

Honestly figuring brave out seems to be a lost cause at this point. The term is much too general and we could back and forth about it all day.

 

[Deleted member]

I’m looking forward to Agumon getting in, and then us having to wallow in our regret.

Some people are arguing about Erica Mendez right now.That's what I was talking about.

I doubt it's that general. Not when Jack is pretty clearly tied to Joker, but not in one specific way, but 3 possibilities.

What I want to figure out is what the June thing could mean, besides a female Joker alt, anyway.

 

[Deleted member]

Have fun lads, but this ain’t exactly my turf to cover. Also I want an excuse to use this.

An artist I like, (Magister) explained that the immediate association of "Brave" with Erdrick doesn't actually work in Japanese because the word for Brave is in the context of an attribute a person has, is a different Kanji. We basically figured out that "Brave" is just a common way people localize "Yuusha"

The 勇者 series of anime is translated as "Brave" and the most famous of them 勇者王ガオガイガー was translated as "The King of Braves: GaoGaiGar"

Nah, the Rin case was basically confirmed to not be a transgirl and is 100% meant to be a gay crossdressing male who ID's as such.

Spoiler

Also he's a ****ing alien

On that note, why do the spambots only appear later on? Is their AI on a timer?

that explains why the wiki switched pronouns
i should probably do better skimming

Huh, interesting.

Though to be fair, that would be a pretty easy way to codename Erdrick as well due to that alone. What the name Jack can imply is that the codename doesn't have to be super specific, but still relate to a character enough that you can tell it's legitimately tied to them. It's a common localization, but it's still a proper tie to Erdrick.

Oh yeah, that's why it's 100% going to be one of three characters

1) Erdrick as its his class
2) The Legendary Builder because from the extracted data, it fits
3) Luminary because big thing to promote

 

[TMNTSSB4]

Spider-Ham.

You didn’t meme...you have failed me

Sans Spideytale, of course.

Op Spider

 

[Cutie Gwen]

Honestly what makes this whole Catherine controversy dumb is that, well. The game literally says "IF MEN DO NOT HAVE THE SEX WITH WOMEN AND MAKE BABIES THEY BAD" with Erica, the transwoman, also suffering under the curse caused by Satan who's mad about people making less babies. The anti-LGBT messages are so thinly-veiled that the story outright ****ing says it's anti-LGBT right there

I don't think it'll definitely be a DQ character. But it's still quite possible. I can't think of how it can tie to Crono, though, which was more my question. Does Crono have any actual ties to Courage/Bravery?
