If the leak is fake I will be in awe of the leaker, who did the awesome feat of creating a leak that no one could prove fake. I will not be ashamed for believing it. I will not apologize to insiders.

Fan demand could increase the chances. Look at Ridley, for example.The Subspace Emissary's cutscenes totaled ~50 minutes. If they chose to do something similar this time (and I really doubt it) they'd probably need to add like ~20-30 more minutes at the very least since we're gonna have double the playable characters in this. Plus the CG will have to be in HD.
So what are the chances they decided it's worth paying for 1-1.5 hours of high quality HD cutscenes this time?
The sad part is this is all about conditioning the community to accept a small stage list as soon as possible. This will easily be the first thing in Ultimate that will upset me.

Those rosters were also not officially revealed in full before release. Sakurai is definitely building up hype by intentionally showcasing every character.Agreed. Even if the Grinch leak didn't exist, Kencineroar would still be a anti-climactic and disappointing ending. People like to bring up how Brawl and Smash 4 didn't have super hype newcomer reveals, but introducing a new series to Smash (Pikmin and Xenoblade) is infinitely better than ending on ANOTHER Pokemon newcomer (and I would still say this, even if it was Decidueye in Incineroar's place).
I've been checking them out when you post them, homie.I've been posting his videos every week actually. :( proof that nobody reads me sniff
Eeeehhhhh, the game looks good & all, but I'm not sure if the in-game models are good enough to be used in cutscenes. You can easily see the edges in the models if you zoom in close.Guys, the game itself is beautiful, they don't even need CG cutscenes. It can easily be in-engine and be on par with brawl's cutscenes.
is that the one with the legendary-only pokeball match? fucking loved thatMy favorite event match was always Melee's Event Match 37: Legendary Pokemon. That was the only event I played over and over again to the point I still remember the number after all these years. Wish we had more cool events like that. Brawl's event matches definitely did not scratch that itch for me.
They should just release Spirits modes cutscenes in theatres as an epic silent movie trilogy.
Imagine what you can do now with pokemon trainer.They're definitely one of the best parts, even if the later challenges can get mean. I've always liked the ones that kinda put a twist on mechanics, IIRC in Brawl there was one with the Pokémon Trainer where you had a full party, including Pikachu or something? Unless I'm just imagining that
Thinking that Isaac's trailer was delayed is low-key kind of sociopathic and also demonstrably false.
Like, they announced Animal Crossing right after Isabelle and that directly references Smash and her trailer, do you think they made that trailer in a week?
When we have so many potential options, of course the Smash community would become less forgiving of minor stuff.The sad part is this is all about conditioning the community to accept a small stage list as soon as possible. This will easily be the first thing in Ultimate that will upset me.

Not quite there, but I like your enthusiasm!Guys, the game itself is beautiful, they don't even need CG cutscenes. It can easily be in-engine and be on par with brawl's cutscenes.

This particular audio cut is missing the part where he says "if you haven't attacked anyone, this is not for you."
Please do not use this thread to discuss how you think industry personalities or content creators should behave.
I still hate how they have Dreamland 64 and Midgar on "maybe"
Would you rather have people die to bullshitThe competitive community makes me so sad. The game can't even come out before they're figuring out how to reduce it to as few moving parts as possible.
Cheers to more Animal Crossing for the forseeable future. Still more variety than 4 so hopefully it won't be as bad.
Hazardless Midgar is literally just Battlefield. And Dreamland is also too close to Battlefield. They want variety.
On the other hand, when we don't have any idea of the form the meta is taking outside of a now months outdated E3 demo with only a tiny fraction of the content, it's a little concerning to see a couple of the loudest voices talking about how small a pool of stages there is without any sort of suspect testing.When we have so many potential options, of course the Smash community would become less forgiving of minor stuff.
Some of these guys are so stuck in their ways that any deviation from their norm will be met with the utmost scrutiny .I mean with Hazard toggle I expect many stages Will become viable right? Like Wily Castle for example
You're lucky, it's pretty annoying when people force these silly competitive rules into the game sessions. I'll never understand the idea of letting random people tell you what is and isn't fun to you.I totally agree. I'm glad I don't play that way nor do I have any friends that force the group to .
Sorry Nate, disregard my previous posts.
And Pokemon and Yoshi
That's how they're crossing them off the list? If the stage is to similar to another one?Hazardless Midgar is literally just Battlefield. And Dreamland is also too close to Battlefield. They want variety.
At least the music won't be unfitting this time around
Yea? Why wouldn't they. Having 3 different Battlefields means characters that are good on Battlefield will have less of a chance of their stage being banned.That's how they're crossing them off the list? If the stage is to similar to another one?
xD1x, Alax, and Maximilian Dood mainly.Who do you guys check for reaction vids about Smash (if you even watch those) ?
Personally my fav ones are always Etika for the hyperbolic reaction, Maximilian Dood and D1x.
Works for me. Much better music to battle to.And Pokemon and Yoshi
Pokemon Stadium 1/2 without hazards might very easily become the new Smashville.
Visual variety is important as well. Either lump all triplatforms in one packet or have none of them, not this bullshit "i want this triplatform but not this triplatform".Hazardless Midgar is literally just Battlefield. And Dreamland is also too close to Battlefield. They want variety.
Maximillian Dood freaking out about Cloud as soon as the music starts playing is so hype!Who do you guys check for reaction vids about Smash (if you even watch those) ?

I guess I assumed for variety but that's whack as hell if stages are banned by pros because of that.Yea? Why wouldn't they. Having 3 different Battlefields means characters that are good on Battlefield will have less of a chance of their stage being banned.
Hazards are not the only thing that makes a stage tournament viable or not. A lot of the stages they banned have walkoffs.Is this with stage hazards turned on or off? I assumed most stages would be legal with stage hazards off?
Whether the leak and up being fake or not, one thing is sure, we probably are seeing of the ugliest side of the Smash fandom right now.
Seriously, some people are taking this way too seriously...
They can't know stage hazards for sure, so they just have them listed as banned anyway.Is this with stage hazards turned on or off? I assumed most stages would be legal with stage hazards off?
That's not what's happening here. The top players just want a small stage list.When we have so many potential options, of course the Smash community would become less forgiving of minor stuff.
Why would competitive players care about visual variety?Visual variety is important as well. Either lump all triplatforms in one packet or have none of them, not this bullshit "i want this triplatform but not this triplatform".
