    I wonder if Joker will work kind of like how everyone works in Persona 4 Arena

    Where your Persona has its own HP and when it drains you can't use any of your specials until it recharges

    The last collab Joker was in, he had his hobo-knife and his shootbangs, Arsène with a Dark-spell and a debuff, and All-Out with a random thief-friend following up.

    Wait some one said something about season pass being cheap but I'm seeing it for 25$ which is still 5 per character? Do we know the cost of them individually? I'd guess 6?

    One of the best details of Link's boss in Classic mode is
    he only takes damage on his tail

    It's not easy getting back there as Link

    Just a point of contention Negan makes no sense in Tekken and should have been John Wick

    Wait, is this out now? Because I had the game pre-ordered but it didn't appear in my list of available downloads in the store. Are there different release dates?

    Edit: Nevermind I'm a blind idiot

    Does the spirit type actually change anything?

    I had assumed that grab spirits would make your grab better, but as far as I can tell you just get stronger if your type beats the enemy type.

    So I haven't played a Smash since Brawl and this game feels slower than I remember Smash feeling? Longer animations for attacks and longer periods after an attack where you can't move. I don't dislike it, it's just taking a while to get used to. Has it just been a while or was Smash 4 the same way?

    I haven't really put any time into a smash game since melee when I was a kid so I completely forgot how the controls work. Thank god they let you change them however you want. This game feels so much better with jump on B and attack/special on Y/X just like video game god intended. Using a pro controller btw and it feels perfectly fine.

    Start with the How to Play video that's in the game. It's in the menus somewhere or it'll autoplay if you leave it at the main menu for a bit.

    I would try looking up guides for smash 4 since the mechanics are largely the same - I think the art of smash series was pretty good?

    So, again, having not played since melee, wtf did they do to mario?! I go for a tornado punch and get this no damage fludd bullshit. I'm sure he is fine but they made mario feel WAY more "techy" given the cape AND fludd do no damage but are just useful tools. And I can totally see how good fludd could be for pushing away from recovery, but still! My tornadoes!

    They have significantly reduced the endlag on pretty much every move in the game from 4

    The #1 broad mechanical change they made is "everything is faster"

    Oh, is there a description for how edge grab mechanics work, because i swear both myself and the computer would get close but then just teleport a last chunk to grab the ledge.

    I think there is a help built-in to the game which describes various mechanics with movies - I remember Sakurai showed them off at some tournament and we had to interpret the new ledge invincibility (and ledge grab failure after x regrabs) from it

    Okay after playing a lot last night K. Rool is definitely my front runner for new go-to dude

    He hits hard as hell, has a counter and his recovery move is super useful all while being gross and weird

    I love him

    Don't have many unlocks yet but so far I'm really enjoying how Mario feels

    Playing through classic mode and just getting to unlock fighters at the end is a lot of fun, even with the random nature.

  • JayKaosJayKaos Registered User regular
    Played a bit of vs cpu last night and a bit of world of light, have confirmed that I don't remember how to be good at smash and I'm not sure I ever knew.

    But I still remember how to do the kirby kamikaze so all good there.

    No clue how accurate this all is but: https://cstarleague.com/smash/news_articles/895 has a lot of breakdown info, and it let me know that "snapping to" the ledge is definitely a thing.
