Unpopular Smash Opinions (BE CIVIL)

[Wario Wario Wario]

IMO, the most accurate way to represent the Stomp isn’t giving him Dr. Mario’s dair, it’s making footstooling an enemy play the stomp sound effect and deal some percent to them.

A gimmick like that, even as an insignificant easter egg, doesn't really work for a starter character who's meant to set an expectation for how the rest of the game works.

(also I just generally don't like impractical easter egg stuff like Piranha Plant crouch footstall or Link's laser)

The last thing gaming needs right now IMO is more live-service games.

As is, Nintendo having the ability to put a kibosh on official online servers and online functionality for their own games at any time (and having done this fairly early on for their last few consoles already, while also not listening to user feedback or the general backlash towards it unlike Sony regarding the PS3) as well as heavily restricting the availability of non-online games is already a perfectly reasonable point of contention. The next Smash game could go in any number of directions, but making it entirely live-service isn't the right call.

If the next game was live service and launched with only like 16 characters I would actually quit talking here--something like how I saw one user here ragequit the forum when Bomberman was revealed as an Assist Trophy for Ultimate.

complaining about characters being cut is rather selfish to me especially when the next system will be backwards compatible , especially characters who have been around for 3 games or more.

How is complaining about a cut any more selfish than asking for a new character? Both are inherently self interested, aren't they?

It's perfectly fine to want something new and it's perfectly fine to want to keep something you already have.

My annoyance is it feels as though the way they complain about it is ; ( the character is gone forever ) which is simply not true.

Well sometimes it is.

Not every character will be brought back without an EIH scenario. I've had my main cut twice before. That stuff stings, even if they did make it back eventually.

After playing Echoes of Wisdom, I kinda don't want Zelda to be based around that game fully. I think a mix between TotK and Echoes would be best. Make her a light mage with some creative liberties based around TotK for the most part, and keep the Echoes stuff for things like the Tri Rod Spin for a couple of moves, and Down B having Zelda actually summon Echoes. It's basically what she already does with Phantom Slash anyway.
