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

[Just a penguin]

You unfold the doorknob.
You: "F"
You attempt to eat the unfolded, dead doorknob.

Delicious! And strangely spicy...
You: "That's lunch taken care of. Wait... what is this feeling?"
Your stomach glows for a second.

Power Gained! :
Knob Diplomacy 1
By eating the doorknob, you have gained the ability to befriend other types of knobs. ​

You enter the room for a second time, this time more violently.
There is still a TV on a stand with some devices, a window, a wardrobe, a twin sized bed, and a toy box.

I open the wardrobe, attempting to find Narnia.

Show of hands. Who among you would buy a DC vs. Marvel fighting game. And what would you expect from such a title. Who would you want to make it? What gameplay style would you want from it. Should this be it's ow thread? Will people even see it if I make it it's own thread?

Answer whichever of these questions you want.

MvC but DCvM? I'd be down for it

 

[Opossum]

Okay guys, we've now established that in addition to cinnamon breath, we also have Kirby's power of "eat things to gain their powers."

Let's proceed.

Actually wait a minute. Eat the TV to gain electric powers.

 

[Wademan94]

I open the wardrobe, attempting to find Narnia.

When he opened the door, piles of clothing poured out and buried the poor penguin.

 

[Pyra]

Take a nap after all this doorknob business.

You take a nap.
Rolling to see nap length...

You nap for six hours, not like you can tell. It is, however, now dark outside.

I open the wardrobe, attempting to find Narnia.

Inside the wardrobe are 4 sets of identical outfits: A simple black v-neck shirt, and jeans. Looks child-sized. Unfortunately, no Narnia this time. Darn!
Besides the clothes are one pair of black running shoes and a card.

Wouldn't that just give you advertising powers?

 

[Opossum]

Even better. Advertising is basically a massive boon to our persuasion.

Still useful, you can shill in the middle of battle to distract the enemy.

It would be interesting. A thread might be a good idea because there are just so many characters.

And I'm okay with anyone as long as Wiccan and Hulkling vs Raven and Beast Boy can be a thing.

 

[Pyra]

You walk up to the television. It has a big screen, a channel knob and a volume knob in addition to the power switch.
You try to eat the television, but it doesn't want to be eaten yet judging by the fact that it's massive.

Answer whichever of these questions you want.

I'll answer all of them because why not?

1. I probably wouldn't buy it since I'm not a fan of fighting games personally (I just don't have the time to get good at them). I would like to see it happen though, if only so comic book fans could finally play out all the Marvel vs. DC fights they've done with action figures or forum roleplays or other stuff like that.
2. I'd expect a good fighting game representing both franchises well in terms of roster. i.e. make sure things like the Justice League and Teen Titans are present for DC, and the Avengers and X-Men are present for Marvel among other characters (Young Justice and Fantastic Four would be nice to see as well). No roster tampering like what happened in Marvel vs. Capcom Infinite.
3. I know they're busy with a lot of fighting games, but I would love to see Arc System Works develop it. They've been on a roll with fighting games recently, and I think they could capture the art style and feel of the comic book characters well seeing how they knocked it out of the park in those regards with Dragon Ball FighterZ.
4. I would want it to be a competitive fighting game. That's really it. Preferably it's good enough to be at EVO for a year or two, if not longer.
5. No, don't make it it's own thread. No one would see it, and a question like this is best asked on the social thread. Furthermore, this is a hypothetical game and not one that's in development.

Wait a minute. Yank the knob off.

 

[SnakeFighter64]

OK. I'll post over in the lighthouse. Won't be like my usual roster threads because I don't really even know where to begin with a project like this. Okay, thats not true, I know where i'd want to START. It's finishing it and making it a reasonable sized roster that's the problem.

Does anyone else here like to sing?

Nah, it gives you the ability of not being able to saying or doing anything not PG-13.

Pretty cool, wouldn’t mind this design it could set up a Knight and dragon dynamic between scorbunny and sobble https://t.co/lK9HtB5Giy pic.twitter.com/LCMHNEdIVS

[staindgrey]

So, not to get off-topic but it feels like it should be on-topic:

I've been reading a ton of **** from the Corrin Discord and reddit and I've been playing Corrin all wrong. Using neutralB and sideB in neutral is a terrible idea; aerials link in ways I didn't know; instaturn being used for its tipper is WAY more effective than spacing out the Fsmash, SHFF Bair is more usable on the ground than I gave it credit for, Uair is a good kill move when I don't abuse it and stale it, and I've been picking the wrong stages this whole damn time.

Corrin 2.0 coming up soon.

This is pretty much fake, but man!

I want a fire/steel knight evolution for Scorbunny so badly!

Though ngl, this design is kind of mediocre

Yeah, it's hard to limit this sort of thing.

...just make it Teen Titans vs Young Avengers

Yeah, totally. It needs a wide swath of representation from most of the Marvel and DC Teams, heroes and villains alike. It would probably be HUGE. Like, maybe set the world record for largest fighting game roster. No one group dominating. Arc Sys would be good. I'd love to see them try out a non-anime art style and see what they can really do.

It would be interesting. A thread might be a good idea because there are just so many characters.

Wait, should I or shouldn't I make a thread for this?

I wish I could sing

 

[SnakeFighter64]

*shurgs* I don't know. I just like to sing to let out my emotions, and I just did. So it's on my mind. Figures I'd throw out the line and see if it starts a conversation.

Engage with the volume knob and attempt to learn from it how to amplify our voice.

You attempt to interface with the Volume Knob
You: "Uh... hello. Got any tips for being louder?"
VK: "[unintelligible mumbling]"

Wait a minute. Yank the knob off.

You try yanking the volume knob off instead. In doing so, you end up twisting it to the right instead. Seems pretty well attached.
VK: "aaaaaaAaAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA"

The wording implies that it's possible for the tv to want to be eaten.

Attempt to persuade the TV via knob communication.

You, speaking to both knobs generally: "So... can I eat you yet?"

VK: I'D RATHER NOT BE EATEN.
CK: The channel knob is silent, yet for some reason, possibly the poor knob you ate earlier, you can sense it's fear.

I read the card in the closet.

You leave the TV alone for now and walk back to the wardrobe.
You pick up the card.

Woah, it's a steakhouse gift card. Imagine that! You can use that for your date at 8PM... wait a second.

[Cutie Gwen]

I am so weirded out now.

What the **** is JoJo.

Also I'm pretty sure that's D.C. Douglas's voice.

That's Part 4's main villain who yes, IS voiced by D.C Douglas which is why I recommended the dub

Show of hands. Who among you would buy a DC vs. Marvel fighting game. And what would you expect from such a title. Who would you want to make it? What gameplay style would you want from it. Should this be it's ow thread? Will people even see it if I make it it's own thread?

**** yeah I'd buy it. Just dunno who they'd add as I'm very tired and tired Gwen has a very useless brain

I swear that man only gets robots and villains.

Spoiler: Fates spoiler if anyone cares.

I thought Gunter was the first role he played where he got to be a genuine good guy but then I finally played Revelations three years later and goddammit he's a villain again!

You breath some cinnamon onto the knobs.
You: "Please~? How about now~?"
VK: "YOUR BREATH REEKS DUDE. I THINK. I CAN'T SMELL. ALSO WATCH WHAT YOU BREATHE!!"
Incidentally, the power switch starts to have an allergic reaction.

Call an uber, pay with the outfits in the closet, and go to the steakhouse with the gift card in hand.

You would, but you have no cell phone. You try shouting out the window anyway.

You try to shout out for an Uber, but you get stage fright and end up burping out a massive cloud of cinnamon.
You can feel the Channel Knob start showing concern for the power switch.

 

[osby]

That could be it's own project by itself. Man, they should do a Young Avengers movie or show.

MCU really seems to be building up for Young Avengers but it'll probably have an original cast maybe aside from Cassie.

Shame, Volume 1 team is one of my favorite Marvel teams, up there with X-Force Investigations, Runaways and Astonishing X-Men.
