Edea no doubt, the anime avatars will most likely be also with Cutie Gwen Cutie Gwen 's inclusion as she is the only person still with an anime avatar.
Damn, I gotta add Reggie, too, huh?

I remember when everyone had an anime avatar like that.
I no longer like mine.

Grinch shenanigans are a must, especially the assholes who'd give you death threats for not believing it

I hate when I feel like I must be missing something obvious in a game and start searching the same areas over and over as if something magically gonna be different the next time

If we got a Dark Souls Character in Smash, what would the stage be? Like, how many locations in that game are safe for the rating?

Anor Londo is an iconic location from those games and it'd be pretty easy to make that rating suitable.

So I read through an opinion piece today from IGN on Accessibility in gaming and why more games should have it. This specifically pointed to the Souls games and Sekiro.

I am 100% on board with making games accessible to people with disabilities. Allowing for settings that make the game more bearable for someone is something that I am totally for, as it’s just like how when I teach, I have to modify certain things for certain kids.

However, it does not mean that “easy mode” is included in that. Interestingly enough, when I have students who get accommodations, it’s not like the exam they take is made easier. In order to pass, they still have to show they can do certain things, just like the smartest kid in my classes.

Easy mode, while it doesn’t hurt anyone either, is not the same thing. Easy mode does not change specific mechanics of the game, and to me it unfortunately seems like an excuse for some people, not all to say, “making it easier makes it more accessible for people with disabilities!” When that isn’t the case at all.

Basically, all the way for accessibility. I’m not sold on games like Dark Souls needing an easy mode.

There's a big difference in taking an exam and playing a video game, though. One is work, one is entertainment. I see no harm in games offering difficulty options when balanced appropriately.

EDIT: Upon rereading this, I'm pretty positive I misread some of this and misunderstood what you were trying to say. My bad.

Making a game easy wont help a person with Parkinson's, thats for sure. If anything, I think they would find that insulting, making a game easy just because you have a physical or mental disability

I just want an easy mode because then i’d actually be able to enjoy it. But because it doesn’t and because it’s not the kind of action game I prefer, I stay away.

Workin' our way down to the bottom, still a ways to go. Edea and Grinch requests have been granted. Any SmashBoard events/memes of recent are always appreciated.
Next will be Reggie probs.

Hello people! I am back from watching that Kamen Rider movie with Pac-Man!

I liked it a lot, even related deeply with the character of Emu.

Cutie Gwen Cutie Gwen , I can imagine why you love this franchise. At least this movie was a blast to watch through for me.
