this, really.

Besides Sans, who i'll be the first to say probably isn't getting in, there's no one left for me to "campaign" for. It's kinda liberating.
About Obligations and who I campaign for that would be Isaac, Geno, Banjo and Duster but I'll fully admit I can't see any of them getting in for the Fighters pass, except for MAYBE Banjo.

And in terms of Duster He's never getting in despite me wanting him. They'd have to scrape the bottom of the barrel for Duster, He's not very important and he's from a Japan-Exclusive game.

tbh i don't really feel obligated to "campaign" or "push" for anybody

like i ****post about elma and that's basically as far as it gets lmaooo
Same. Campaigning for a character is a good way to get too emotionally invested in one outcome. I think just kinda wanting/hoping for a character is enough for me.

Honestly one more thing to add to this, The closest and most meaningful thing I could get in terms of Duster is a remix of his theme and a Mii Costume, I doubt a playable Character.

Honestly, unless a character I want is Erdrick tier almost confirmed, I probably won't go nuts again. Sure i'll have my wishes, but i'll keep it contained.

I stanned Incineroar last year, and good God was that a crazy arc. I'm still surprised I made it out alive after the Grinch.

I thought if the Grinch was fake we would at minimum get more than the Box Theory suggested but nope.

I can't believe Geno and Isaac ****ing died.

Heck they could probably cut Charizard from the next game and I would still be okay. I may embrace the crazy loyalist persona sometimes but if something did happen to Zard I know there'd still be someone else in the roster for me.

Of course that's the only way they could get me to stop maining Zard. If even Smash 4's fun as heck Mewtwo failed to shake my loyalty I can't imagine what other character could.

Being able to accept disappointment in general would help people a lot.

If we actually get 14 more characters who would you expect? not saying we will as that's rather unlikely but if we did who would you predict to be in?

I think

1. Erdrick
2. Steve
3. Lloyd
4. Dixie
5. Geno
6. Banjo
(if Assist trophies are able to be upgraded: 7. Isaac 8. Waluigi 9. Skull Kid/Shadow otherwise)
7. Jill Valentine
8. Rayman
9. Heihachi
10. FE:TH Rep
11. Sword/Shield Pokemon
12. Rex/Pyra or Elma
13. Bandana Waddle Dee
14. Duster/Porky/Ninten

though I doubt we'll ACTUALLY get 14 characters maybe a Second Season at most.
I really don't think we're getting 14 more characters. I predict 10 AT MOST (The rest of Season 1, Season 2, and a bonus ballot character). I'll work with that.
  1. Erdrick
  2. Steve
  3. Lloyd/Yuri
  4. Leon Kennedy
  5. Doomguy
  6. Sora/Nintendo rep
  7. Waluigi
  8. Blyeth (with a weapons master moveset)/Edelgard
  9. Rex & Pyra
  10. Ballot

If Geno isn't in I'll breathe air

If Geno is in Smash I'll breathe air

If literally nothing happens about Geno one way or the other I'll breathe air

It's all the same when you get down to it.

The only thing that would make me freak out at this point is Sora, and even then I know he's a pipe dream at best.

If he does get in I will likely cry though.

Personally I really don't think we will get a Season 2 honestly. I mean the roster is already as big as it is. 80 (82 if separate) characters is plentiful.

No! We must get to 100 Characters, A Million! SHAQ OF RICE GET ON IT

Of course I'm kidding and we absolutely don't need a Season Two as we already have the best roster of Smash History.

Speaking of which, on a slightly off topic note, I'd say you and I were pretty lucky with the whole Grinch leak debacle...
Whether the Grinch was right, or Verg was right, we'd be having one of our most wanted characters, either way. If the Grinch was real, I got Chorus Kids, and you got Geno. If Verg was right, we both still got Incineroar. It was a win-win, either way, and I'm still shocked that it happened that way for us

And that will be cut short when Smash 6 comes in rolling by with only 1/3 of the characters returning.

Why its just better to end Smash here while they can and simply just keep porting Ultimate instead.

I'm a pretty lucky guy in real life. I guess the universe decided to share some of my luck with you.

Seriously even if we get two Seasons which is Unlikely within itself the Roster will be sliced in half anyways.

I agree that Ultimate feels like a send off.

Elma is literally the only character I have left who's alive and even then she's no Erdrick lmfao

If she gets in though I will be ecstatic beyond belief

Pretty much this. Any more and we're reaching Infinite levels of roster size. Infinite is a fan mod with 100 characters btw.

I'm pretty sure the guys who developed Infinite are sweating already seeing as an official Smash Bros. game has 4/5 the roster size.
I'll never get the appeal about an next installment having 1/3 of characters not returning...
Have it be more competitive (Project M levels) and overhaul movesets and there's the appeal right there.

So long as it's got my boys Marth and Shulk I don't care.

Here's my thing about it.

Will the next game have a third of the characters? Yes. But Ultimate will still be there! Whenever you want to go back to having every smash character ever you can just pop it in, and when you're ready for something new the next game will be there.

Ultimate won't disappear because a new Smash released. That's just how I feel, at least.

If more fighting game characters are ever considered again...


Easily a top 2 pair.

The next game having a third of the roster won't make it boring, especially if it's got new features.
A third of the roster + a huge actual story mode and some really neat competetive changes would be decently sick

It wouldn't be an Ultimate but Smash isn't just staring at the CSS

I still hold out hope for Poochy :yoshi:
No.
I'd rather it end at Ultimate and simply keep porting it. That's personally just me though.
Even if they just continue adding characters eventually the series is going to get stale. There's only so many characters you can add before it becomes too much.

The only way I'd agree to this is if they keep porting Ultimate but also release a more competitive, more-like a-traditional-fighting-game version of Smash Bros. alongside it to keep the series fresh.

Or Nintendo vs. Capcom. That'd be cool too.

The appeal is:
1) Higher likelihood of more newcomers
2) More radical gameplay changes
3) Aesthetic differences

Because remember, Smash isn't a ****ing museum.
It's a game that people want to play, and trust me, nobody wants to play the same game for 20 goddamn years.
(Unless it's like Melee)
