They’re just going to make the extra money with a copious amount of cosmetic DLC. They already have a deluxe edition preorderable for $69.99 that just comes with cosmetic DLC and a “making of feature”

No, they’re simply going to go back on their word, like when Call Of Duty says their micros will be just cosmetic.
I wonder what was the tipping point that made EA go for a single player game. Was it the Battlefront 2 micro transaction scandal, Anthem 's failure or Apex Legends being successful?
I think it’s a bit of all that…and the fact that single player games like Spider-man PS4, Horizon Zero Dawn, and God of War PS4 became critically acclaimed and so successful.
Let Respawn have a much control as possible.

The Blue Fairy from ‘Pinocchio’ would wreck them all.
Honestly I skipped right over the Star Wars announcement cause EA, but as soon as I saw Respawn is doing it my interest was piqued

I’m a sucker for behind the scenes stuff on games. Haven’t seen the reveal stuff yet due to work, but I get off in a couple hours and I’ll see it after that.
Power Rangers patch
They fixed the no low block online glitch
Also registration thus far for Evo
Despite how a majority of people feel about Smash in general, I’m definitely glad that Ultimate is putting out record numbers if only to stick it further into the craw of the Melee guys.

As long as I don’t have to see Melee on that list anymore…all good.
Nice to see UNIST hang in there.

MK11 will go up when it drops. It will likely make its was to the #3 spot.

What’s even the difference between Melee smashers and Ultimate smashers? I’d figure a smasher is a smasher.
Most smashers will happily move from game to game and adapt due to genuine love of the series. Melee players refuse to do this.
A lot of FGC members are like this too. Where they prefer x version of x series and don’t like or play anything else but that.
That’s pretty much the TL;DR of it.

If you want a challenging platformer that is packed full of content check out N++, the creator just added a big level pack for free to a game that already had 2k levels.

This dude gives some great commentary on games…and I found this one he did for Darksiders 2… this particular point he raises is something I just couldn’t get over with this damn franchise, man… [the mention is about 49:46 if the timestamped link doesn’t work properly]
though he is mostly praising the game’s design, the shit was annoying to me from day one…you have to do all this shit, jump through so many hoops just to get places that an ordinary human could simply climb to or hop over. There’s numerous occasions like this where I was thinking—“why the hell can’t Death just jump over that? Or y’know…FLY, phase through it, break the wall, teleport, etc. etc.” since he happens to be a supernatural being.
I’ll put it this way—imagine if someone made a game with…let’s say Superman as the main character. He gets to an area where there’s a 4-foot brick wall blocking the way, and a locked wooden door on the other side of that. Superman needs to get over there. Well, looks like he’ll have to go meet up with Lucious Fox and Batman to have them design a body-displacement device so he can astral project himself across the street in the other direction where you get the keys to that door. Then you have to stand on a certain spot to make a giant boulder fall on another floor button which raises a secret entrance to a room where you push a lever, which moves the bricks. Now you have the key and you have moved the bricks so you can get through that aforementioned door…you’re Superman and you have to do all this shit. GET the fuck out of here with that silly horseshit. It amazes me that I seem to be one of the only people annoyed by this nonsense.

Melee players are the mom’s basement dwellers of Autism.
They started out in that house by accident of birth, and refuse to move out.
@Stuart_Hayden is being far, far too kind.
So did the Marn guy have an infectious disease or is he just protesting baths like smash players?
There were jokes saying he had Ebola a few years ago.
It is not like a large swath of the FG community is much better than Smashers when it comes to Hygiene Install.
They simply play fighting games.
That’s the only difference.
