At first I was like "oh no, is this another Marth? We already have 3 of those..."

Then I was like "Wait, he's got a bow? ..and and axe? And a lance? And his sword-whip can spike people above him? ....Alright, I'm sold. Fire Emblem feels a little overrepresented, but eh, he/she looks fun"

That jab at "too many swordsmen" was hilarious too. XD

I think people are more mad over another FE character if anything. I'm happy for Blyath fans, but the whole reveal felt lukewarm.

Welp, atleast we got an answer, straight from horse's mouth whether Smash counts as a fighting game. Cuphead's there too, cool.

And yet I've never heard this in my entire life. I'm sure in some communities it's used, but I wouldn't call it commonplace enough that it should be expected people know since nobody here knew what you meant.

Agreed. But I am at least grateful Byleth seems unique in design unlike some of the other FE additions (Though I admit I really like how Chrom handles, just the right mix of Marth and Ike for me to enjoy). 6 new fighters though... I have my fingers crossed that Adol from Ys fame gets in. Sure he's "yet another sword fighter" but he's my sword fighter dammit.

Sakurai literally made an anime swordfighter joke in the Byleth prensentation. i'm pretty sure his audience is more commonplace than the escapist forum audience...

I hate this franchise with a passion. Every story and character is the same. And smash is so bland. It?s just forward a until the cpu is gone. I think I?m gonna trade it in and be glad I didn?t throw my money away with the fighters pass.

Last time I played with others, I was constantly called a fa**** for picking people I liked instead of top tier. Why should I stick my hand in the fire if I know I?ll get burned?

Oh jeez wiz- OF COURSE, that's what people have been doing wrong all this time, how could we be such silly little chuckle fucks, eh?

Like, it isn't as if we have no choice who we get matched up with online, or who we meet at tournaments, or at events, or at social gatherings with friends of friends of other friends, nahhh... We just do this to ourselves. Yup.

Really curious why this was where your mind first went when someone said they didn't wanna play with other people. It's such an oddly... childish first guess.

Last time I played with others, I was constantly called a fa**** for picking people I liked instead of top tier.
If you ask me Yoshi that's a pretty good reason to not wanna play with other people in a game, it's why I don't touch things like League or Overwatch myself.

Maybe tone down your victim blaming just a touch

If he's not having fun playing with others, isn't that reason enough.

Hell, that's a big part of the reason I stopped playing MP a long time ago, because the amount of time I was having fun was far exceeded by the times I wasn't and it didn't seem to matter much where I went.
