People complaining about Smash's roster all believe themselves to be experts on the cultural impact of every game franchise that gets a character added, how good the games are, and whether or not that qualifies them to be up there with Ice Climbers.

i will always remember one of the giant bomb guys going on an extended rant about how 'sorry, but the fire emblem characters just ARENT nintendo' and then, five seconds after he was done, asking who king dedede was

Bedman I can take or leave but I hate Elphelt due to her godawful design and annoyance of fighting her. I realize GG is an ultra anime game but Elphelt tips the scales on levels I thought were not possible. She'd fit better in Blazblue where some of the characters are on a similar tier of embarrassing.
who gets embarrassed by a fighting game character existing lol

Gundam Versus stream on the 17th/18th. They list both Maxiboost On which recently came out for PS4 and XBoost which just got announced for arcades. Likely they'll give more details on gameplay changes and new suits in XBoost and announce some DLC for Maxiboost.

Incredibly tired of Arcsys trying to make lobbies a game in itself. I'd rather stare at a menu than have no idea what I'm doing in a hub world
even if you do want to make a hub world, whats wrong with just walking up to someone and selecting 'challenge', or going into a menu and selecting 'ready to fight' and anyone can fight you by walking up and pressing a

Instead of cheating supercharacter bosses just give me AI archetypes designed to hammer some mechanic home.
Midboss SnakeEdgeSpamMan who does nothing but blocks and snake-edges you.
GimmickGoon baddie who spams 1-2 cheese cheap moves and basically nothing else.
HuggingHulk who basically only varies up throws

make them real scumbag characters so you want to really dumpster them by learning The Actual Lesson

i know you can set all of those up as variations in better training modes, but that assumes you already know all those things exist

if you have a bad fighting game, just increase the speed and damage by 25% and it automatically becomes a decent fighting game.

Who do you two play as? I've been messing around with GunEZ, Baund Doc (this guy really sucks lol), but I'm really liking doing fighter jet strafing runs with Hambrabi. Mobile armor mode really breaks a lot of brains dealing with it. I tried Full Saber for a big boy suit but couldn't get a good feel for it.
I play a lot of Barbatos Lupus and Arche. Generally any melee suit with funky movement options is my speed.

I also really like the GN-X even though its kind of a joke character.

That doesn't happen in actual gameplay whatsoever so it's probably either slowed down for the trailer or her animations aren't complete.

Cags is a trans alchemist whose goal in life is to make magic hrt. Shes also a bit evil.

Granblue is as dead as all other fighting games without rollback rn. Theres two season passes so yes if you count the base game.

I saw some fighting game players posting clips of Naruto: Clash of Ninjas Revolution 3 which piqued my curiosity, so I tried it, and it's way more fun than it has any right to be. You can substitute yourself for a log any time you're in hitstun so a large portion of the game is about managing your opponent's meter and making sure they don't punish you for mindlessly mashing out a super.

It sounds kinda annoying, but there isn't a high low mixup in neutral, so it basically just means that most of your mixing is taking place mid juggle. Neat little game, and it has better netplay than tekken 7

yeah there were like three different branches of naruto fighters and they were all better than they had any right to be
