blcdude1 Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 Well, almost all about Sephiroth. I'm assuming some hopes and dreams get shot down via Mii costumes. Quote Link to comment
DLurkster Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 Hmm, more and more I'm starting to think Sephiroth won't release same day as the presentation. I forget that anytime there's a version update, it will be 10.0, you will get notification in game about it incoming and turning replays into videos. We would of got one already and there's none. So I think at earliest we might get Sephiroth this Friday or latest next Wednesday. Even Wednesday is a stretch, that is pretty close to end of the year holiday break. You'd think they will have him ready day of presentation or Friday. Quote Link to comment
blcdude1 Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 So long as they don't do it on Christmas. That would be a disaster. I mean, things always break with a new character, but that is just asking for trouble. Quote Link to comment
purple_beard Posted December 16, 2020 Author Share Posted December 16, 2020 I have 4 time slots I think are in the mix: 1) right after presentation 2) Christmas Eve/Day 3) New Year's Eve/Day 4) 1st or 2nd week of January.... I just don't see this character sitting for over a month past the preview. Quote Link to comment

blcdude1 Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 Maybe we'll get a new and improved Geno Mii costume. Another one for the Gunner! If they go that route, I'd love to get a track (or tracks) from Super Mario RPG to go with it. Quote Link to comment
DLurkster Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 That vid I posted with Nomura and Sakurai on Sephiroth in Smash. I guess I am fine if Geno shows up as a Mii costume, like Geno is legendary to me and most folks but no is above Sephiroth and what he means to so many. So if Geno have to be a Mii costume so be it. I brought up that Sakurai and Nomura because ppl complain about another anime swordsman but Sephiroth is 'the anime swordsman' so I see the that vid point in why we still keep asking for Dante or Sora. And I can't believe I am saying this but I think I can let go of Lloyd from Tales of Symphonia go as a character to Smash. Even if we had the like of either Sora or Dante I'd still want Lloyd but like Geno I'm okay if Lloyd doesn't make it in. I think I need a moment in what I just said, quite a shock to my system.

I had to look up this acronym and... yeah, this kind of comment feels unnecessarily mean-spirited. No offence but I think you really need to think about how you come across, sometimes. Disagreement on things is fine and obviously part of being a community, but do you really have to be so rude, Ty? Since we’re talking about Geno in general though, I still agree as before that just bringing back his costume would be fine for representation. In addition would be nice to get “Beware the Forest Mushrooms” as a bonus track, but we’ll see. Quote Link to comment

DranSeasona Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 @Art_de_CatAbsolutely would be happy with that. It’s already a cool remix of the weapon boss theme, so would be perfect as a game-representing-track, too. Quote Link to comment
DLurkster Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 (edited) They are starting with the Mii costumes. Barret, Tifa and Aerith and Chocbo hat shown for FF and FF7. Geno gunner confirmed. Edited December 17, 2020 by DLurkster Quote Link to comment
DLurkster Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 Mans has to stop talking about frames because Smash is a party game, right Sakurai? Quote Link to comment
DLurkster Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 The stage northern cavern is quite the storyteller and I guess a spoiler for a game that is over 20 years old. But cool stage. Quote Link to comment
DLurkster Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 9 new FFVII 7 are new arrangements. So a total of 11 FFVII songs now. Also, his classic mode run is boss rush with all the bosses the characters face in their classic mode run, cool. He releases on December 22, 2020. Also for those who purchased the DLC pass 2, you can face off with Sephiroth before he releases from today till he releases. There's 3 difficulty modes to face off with him: Normal, Hard and very hard. I think that's about it. Quote Link to comment
Eliwood8 Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 Damn Sephiroth looks crazy strong, though I guess that makes sense for the character. His attacks must be much slower in actual play to balance it out—Sakurai just makes it look easy. Quote Link to comment
Ridley Prime Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 Yeah Ty, that was a toxic post fam. Reminds me how I used to be ostracized as a Ridley fan and such during pre-Ultimate. That said, I am glad to finally have Geno's fate out of the way again as opposed to it being strung along any further, as I was getting sick of the talk about him too, but not every fan of his deserves to be dragged through the mud, y'know. Lay off. Quote Link to comment
DLurkster Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 He's not slow per se, he's light and can be launched easily. Some have attacks like his bair have a lot of ending lag. So some of his moves have cost in that sense where he appears slow. Oh, I forgot but missed how but he has customized victory screen with him in flames and walking into them. A custom victory screen like Joker, only he and Joker have customize victory screens, interesting. Quote Link to comment
purple_beard Posted December 17, 2020 Author Share Posted December 17, 2020 (edited) Cool way to get him. Stage looks nice. I guess I will try to earn him a week early. ***** LOL @ Geno Mii Costume... as I watched the GX stream live I felt his tears LOL. Edited December 17, 2020 by purple_beard Quote Link to comment
Tyranogre Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 Sorry if I came off as mean-spirited. As someone who doesn't care much for Super Mario RPG, and has been around since the pre-Brawl days of rampant fan-speculation, part of me just couldn't help but laugh at such a heavily-requested character getting snubbed again. If it makes you guys feel any better, both of my most-wanted pics have already been Mii Costume'd. Ridley Prime 1 Quote Link to comment
Igneous42 Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 The easy Sephiroth challenge is indeed pretty easy. The direct made it sound like they all would be punishing and very hard would just be ridiculous or something. Managed very hard too but I kind of cheesed it by landing a meteor kick with ZSS. He seems fun, and easily my favorite this pack just because I'm a FFVII fan. Some of his end lag is awful though so dunno how he will do in tournaments. His side B to me is his coolest thing. A lot of ways you can mess with people using that Quote Link to comment
