I'd still put the Smash fanbase over the Minecraft fanbase, in terms of toxic fan bases.

The Minecraft fanbase is just mostly kids taking things too seriously

While the Smash fanbase is mostly fully grown adults taking things too seriously

It would have been really funny if they spent all that money on Kiefer Sutherland and Big Boss in that game was a Heroic Mime.

Konami Executive: "You spent millions of yen hiring Kiefer Sutherland to voice Big Boss, and all you did was have the character grunt!?"
Kojima: "Yes."
Konami Exec: "You're super fired."
SuperFired is the best superhero, change my mind.

Fully grown physically only, the toxic adults in Smash's community act just like the kids in Minecraft's community. Their age is the only difference.

Now that we are talking about fanbases, i want to share my respect to the support between the Spyro and Crash Bandicoot fanbases or at least what i have seen of both.

They are always supporting each other, and wish the best for both.

It is a great dynamic.
Crash and Spyro have always been strongly connected, ever since Spyro's inception.

I’m not sure how Retro joining will affect MP4. Most of the people involved in the original trilogy have left the company. The DK games were great, but Metroid is a different beast. We’ll just have to wait and see I suppose.
If i'm not mistaken, Prime 3 was made after some of those persons left.

And i prefer to see Retro working on stuff rather than getting closed by bankrupcy.

Oh I don't care about Minecraft, I just hate it when people go "THIS POPULAR THING HAS TOXIC FANS!" Congratulations, you summarized literally anything that has fans, pat yourself on the back cause you said the most basic ****
You forgot the "AND THAT'S IS WHY IT DOESN'T DESERVE TO EXIST" part that comes afterwards

I’m not a Minecraft fan, but I wouldn’t be surprised if Steve ended up being DLC.

Okay, this is my list of DLC Characters:
1. Phoenix Wright (From Ace Attorney Series)
2. SE Representant (Crono from "Chrono Trigger"/Neku from "The World ends with You")(No Erdrick)
3. Shantae
4. Reiji Arisu (From Project X Zone Series)
5. Soma Cruz (From Castlevania, and he is my profile icon)
Now that's some top notch taste there my good wo/man.

True, but Prime 3 from what I’ve seen is generally considered the weakest of the prime trilogy. And now even more people have left.

At the least though, Retro has yet to make a properly bad game, so it isn’t bad news.

I thought Prime 2 was considered the worst of the trilogy?

Man, I’d gladly accept a minecraft stage with the music from the game, because there are some legit great tracks in there. Maybe a creeper assist too. Steve as a fighter just doesn’t appeal to me.

Weakest entry=bad, imo.

A good example of this can be found with the DKC trilogy for SNES.

Many people consider DKC3 the weakest, but not a bad game at all.

And our fanbase is any better? We’re the community who whines about which characters did and didn’t get in and whose competitive scene is composed of unsportsmanlike asshats. We aren’t better than them by a long shot.

And yes, Minecraft is popular enough to be considered.
Id say the bigger issue with the competitive scene for our fanbase is how its treated by its casual audience in general. This is the only fighter I know of that has such a huge divide between the casual and competitive player and a lot of crap gets sent the competitive players way regardless of if they actually deserve it or not.
Then when that gets to the competitive players and they react in a negative way they get pointed at as the casual audience goes, "SEE?! I was right look how they are!"

The competitive scene has its issues(as do many honestly) but a lot of the time more casual players are like Chain Chomps pulling against their chains ready to pounce out and demonize and villainize them in any way they can.

Honestly the thing with the Prime games is that all 3 have rather different directions, Prime 1 basically emulated Super Metroid, 2 tried a more atmospheric horror approach and 3 had a more action packed direction. They're still all great games though Prime 2 can eat my ass with the Skytemple keys. Here's hoping 4 does the Prime 3 thing by going "Hey you don't actually need ALL the plot mcguffins to finish the story"

I agree, that’s why I said weakest instead of bad.

I’ve seen a ton of people say Prime 2 is the best actually. Although this is all anecdotal anyway so it doesn’t really matter.

I agree with you.

I am fine with an approach similar to Prime 3 in regards to the plot.

And the motion controls were not that bad.

This reminded me that Minecraft doesn't really have any music that would fit the Smash theme they only have calming music and i am not to certain if they can remix them while staying true to how they are meant to be

It's not like anyone's saying it has to be remixed anyways. They could just add it as is and I doubt anyone would care.

This is a valid point. Personally I thought Prime 2 had the best idea with the more spooky atmosphere. Fits Metroid well imo.

I like Prime 2 and Prime 3 equally, but Prime 1 will always be the best.

Oh it absolutely fits, it's just that I hate ammo for beam weapons in Metroid which I recognize is meant to enhance the tense nature of Prime 2's locations alongside the fact that Prime 2 has thos e goddAMN ****ING SKYTEMPLE KEYS

True.

I prefer the travel between planets from Prime 3 in that regard.

If it returns for Prime 4, i would only ask for a few more planets.

Death of the Author is a basic concept any film major worth their salt should understand because wasting time discussing what an author intended is meaningless and that could be better used to actually interpret the work. Intent is one thing, what was actually accomplished is another and what actually matters.

Same, Little buddy. Agree to disagree with your opinion.

Oh I know, I was just saying that it doesn't necessarily have to be. I meant people wouldn't complain if they just added the original music.
Lol i wouldn't be mad but i know people who must have to make everyone deaf with their song choices while they play 10000th post by the way
