Guide 09/18/23 12:52:11 AM #4:	I get disliking Smash, as a game, sure. Opinions and such. But there's this sort of weird, specific niche of antagonism towards Smash where it's not just "I don't like how it feels/looks/it doesn't appeal to me/etc", but they try to find some sort of "objective" or philosophical issue with it to make sure people know it's a bad thing. My guess is they loved Smash, thought they were really good, then the internet hit them with small pond syndrome. --- evening main 2.4356848e+91 https://youtu.be/Acn5IptKWQU <cite>Guide posted [p:976142322] in 'Super Sma...

MrMallard 09/18/23 12:59:57 AM #6:	Smash was probably my favourite gaming event ever. Like I bought it, didn't like it and didn't play much of it - it was my first Smash game - but those fucking reveals were hitting on every level. You'd watch a Direct and wait for the Smash reveal, and outside of the occasional fart like Byleth, it always delivered. I went back and saw Max Dood's reactions to the Smash 4 reveals and DLC and stuff, because I wasn't as into the directs and stuff like I am now. The trailers aren't very good. Like seeing Mega Man is hype, but they're very short and they don't have much context. Each of the Smash Ultimate reveals felt like their own little movie. Like the King K.Rool trailer became a meme and they reused it for Banjo because of how well it went over, and that got kind of old - but the part where Donkey Kong and K.Rool are like gunning for each other and they're both like snarling and tearing at the ground to get more speed is fucking incredible. The Castlevania reveal absolutely fucking owned. For some reason, Mario and Luigi were killed by Ridley and Death respectively, like what? I don't like the game itself, but that stretch of DLC character reveals was fucking awesome - and then they made a second wave of DLC and kept the reveals coming for another year. That span of time was very fun to be a Nintendo fan. <cite>MrMallard posted [p:976142399] in 'Super Sma... [t:80569475]...</cite> <quote>Smash was probably my favourite gaming event ever.

BakonBitz 09/18/23 2:24:07 AM #26:	It sounds to me like they're still hurt about some inclusions made like two or three games ago, like Sonic having an unimaginative moveset and Ganondorf being a Captain Falcon clone. Because now Sakurai has treated these characters with respect and didn't make them "vague facsimiles of what they really are." Even going so far as to have some of them play drastically different because that's the kind of game they're in, like Tekken or Minecraft. His description of Smash Ultimate honestly fits Fortnite way more. All those different characters are literally just skins. They may add new abilities to go with some skins but those abilities conversely can be used by any skin.

RchHomieQuanChi 09/18/23 7:58:53 AM #38:	Guide posted... I get disliking Smash, as a game, sure. Opinions and such. But there's this sort of weird, specific niche of antagonism towards Smash where it's not just "I don't like how it feels/looks/it doesn't appeal to me/etc", but they try to find some sort of "objective" or philosophical issue with it to make sure people know it's a bad thing. My guess is they loved Smash, thought they were really good, then the internet hit them with small pond syndrome. This is probably indicative of most media "criticism" online in general. There's no such thing as "this isn't for me" anymore. Everything has to be an attempt to objectively "prove" why something is bad. --- I have nothing else to say <cite>RchHomieQuanChi posted [p:976145553] in 'Super Sma...
