    Best part is that you can tell what the characters are thinking and “saying” without any dialogue.

      Oh yeah, that was a a really classy touch! I think Sakurai wisely decided having dialogue with so many of these characters, especially the cute ones, would be way too cheesy. Having a predominantly serious atmosphere made those epic feels possible and was a tremendous achievement. Then, when it went for comic relief, it was funny as all heck anyway. How did they pull this off?

      My favorite example is the difference between Fox and Falco’s reactions to getting dragged off by Diddy Kong. Fox simply hangs his head as if to say, “Fine, I guess I’ll help you.” Meanwhile Falco angrily crosses his arms basically saying “Fox, why is this monkey dragging me off?!” 🤣🤣

      That’s one of my favorite scenes too. Diddy just screaming for more help while Fox looks on with a knowing look on his face as Falco tries to leave twice, only to get roped in to help anyway. Lmao

      One of the scenes that I think best encapsulates this is when we cut back to the ROB Units still on the floating island, and they slowly close their eyes right before the Subspace Bombs activate.

      I wouldn’t say this is the only thing Brawl does better, it just has better single player content in general even if you exclude Subspace Emissary. All Ultimate really has is Classic mode and WoL, and I don’t think anyone would want to replay through WoL a second time which makes Classic mode the only good single player mode after beating WoL. With Brawl, none of the single player modes ever felt boring to me and they had a lot of replayability.

    As someone who has played brawl since he was 2 years old, whenever you were talking about the terrible, horrible things about this mode, I was smiling from ear to ear each time. Remembering how fun this game is, especially when playing with my older brother. We were stuck on certain SE levels for months on end, and even restarted the whole game mode sometimes cause we forgot something about the story. Took us about 6-8 years to actually beat SE (we didnt even know Tabuu was a boss, I just was walking around and found it randomly) and it was one of the best times of my life.
    Edit: and me and my brother spent hours trying to find a way to not die from Tabuu’s 1 hit move before we found out we couldn’t lol.

    I remember when I first played the game, the Maze straight up broke my progress, I couldn't figure it out and had to look up a guide. A couple of years ago I replayed Subspace and casually beat the maze in one sitting without thinking about it too much. Replaying old favorites always gives moments of wondering why you thought something was so hard, but this more than anything else I remember really gave me the sense of "wow was I really that stupid? what was I even doing? what about this was hard?". I love Subspace Emissary, I knew it got slept on but I didn't know many people outright disliked it, that's a shame.

    I thought everybody loved subspace emissary?! I’ve heard nothing but good things and had amazing times with it. It was the full blown game version of childhood fantasies and times spent playing with toys that had us use our imagination to bring these characters and stories to life. It’s honestly my favorite experience in Smash simply because it has all of these characters interacting and going on a story driven adventure. It was nothing short of magical seeing all these characters meet and interact, even though I didn’t know a good chunk of them before playing. Subspace will always be childhood treasure to me and I’m so glad I got to experience it along with my childhood buddies.

    @YamatoFukkatsu 4 роки тому +52

    Personally, I loved the platforming. This isn't the first review I've seen that talked about how it was supposedly designed to be balanced around all the characters, but I don't really see the issue. I mean, it's not as if whole segments of Palutena's Temple or Great Cave Offensive are completely inaccessible to Ganondorf, so why are side-scrolling levels being held to higher scrutiny in this regard? Besides which, while some characters are definitely more maneuverable than others, the entire cast can get by surprisingly well, at least partially by virtue of the fact that literally every character is capable of a double jump.
    I mean, the story to Subspace was awesome (and it's nice to see someone defending the original enemies), but I loved it simply for its basic premise: it's the Melee Adventure Mode expanded upon exponentially, to the point that it could practically stand as a full game all its own. I especially don't think it gets enough credit for featuring my old favorite platforming staple: having a world map which allows for every previous stage to be revisited at leisure (meanwhile, World of Light is so fucking linear, you can't even rechallenge bosses, lest you're prepared to wait out a 5-minute autoscrolling segment.... at least we're gonna get to fight any Spirit whenever we want soon). Do I think it's perfect? No. I do feel that some stages dragged on WAY longer than they should've, and they abused the hell out of spawn rooms. However, it could've been perfected with time...... which makes me all the more sad that Smash4 just dropped it completely. And then Ultimate brought back Adventure, only to castrate it of the one feature that made Adventure Mode stand out from every other mode in the first place: the platforming. That is such a god damn tease.
    And yes, I could see a lot of complications with featuring 3rd party characters and such in Ultimate, but truth be told, I'd kill just to get Subspace back. Doesn't even have to be updated much, just apply a straight port to Ultimate's engine, put all the new characters behind golden doors (much like Jigglypuff, Toon Link, and Wolf) and call it a day, I'd still most gladly play it. If anything, it feels absolutely criminal to have a roster as absolutely fantastic as Ultimate's, yet our only options for all of them are just vs. matches and Home Run Contest.

    • @DuoStuff
      @DuoStuff  4 роки тому +3

      So first: the reason why I give it more scrutiny than, for example, Palutena's Temple, is that Palutena's Temple is just a fighting stage (and one I don't really like.) With full on levels built like a platformer, I gotta judge it as a platformer. As far as the level design goes, it's just a bit too simple. After playing something like Donkey Kong Country Returns or Tropical Freeze, with a really organic and dynamic approach to level design, Subspaces feels a little stagnated. It's very simple and blocky. That's not to say I hate it, I just would like if it had more going on.
      Second: Oh yeah I agree completely with the World of Light talk. World of Light was such a disappointment to me. It straight up took me a year to finish it because I just never wanted to play it.
      Third: if they did bring back Subspace and the golden doors were how the other characters appeared, I'd prefer they let you get them before entering the great maze. It'd make the maze a little cooler if I had that big of a roster to choose from.
      Anyways, sorry for the long response. Hope you enjoyed the video regardless of some of the disagreements about platforming.

    • @YamatoFukkatsu
      @YamatoFukkatsu 4 роки тому +5

      @@DuoStuff No worries. As long as we both agree that SSE was awesome overall. Anyway, the way I see it, a straight port is probably the ONLY way we're gonna ever have even a shred of hope of seeing SSE in Ultimate, so the golden doors would be the most logical way to incorporate the new characters. Hell, if Snake's codecs are any indication, Sakurai could probably even get by keeping the Twilight Princess designs and such in the FMVs. That said, it might complicate the narrative a bit if the golden doors are available before Tabuu uses the Off Waves on everyone (when your party is supposed to be significantly reduced), but making them available right before the Great Maze instead of in the post-game isn't a bad idea. At any rate, Ultimate would be as good a time as any to re-release Subspace. God knows Brawl's been out of print for a while, and there's no telling if they'll have permission to use Snake again.

    He may be greedy and stubborn, may love to taunt (honestly the smugness in Ultimate is just so satisfying) and be hotheaded at times, but the truth is that this story mode showed that Sakurai wanted to establish him as a character with good intentions who got misunderstood and also didn't use the best methods, but cares about others and wants to help them; the exact same theme he used for the character in Kirby's Adventure and that yet almost no one got, causing people to still consider him as "Kirby's Bowser".
    I mean, the fact that the badges and kidnapping were made so worthy heroes could help save the world from Tabuu, and that he didn't use one for himself even though he could do that, just says so much about him...
    Also, the scene he had with Kirby is absolutely adorable, they really are a found family, and appreciate each other a lot.
    Anyways, thanks for coming to my TEDede Talk.

    When I first heard ultimate would have a story mode I was so happy! I really enjoyed the subspace emmissary and I will say this that the platforming other then the boss battles is actually a really good part of the subspace emissary I liked. When I found out what the super smash bros ultimate story mode was actually like in the trailer I was like " its still good right?" Then once I actually played it, it was fun for the first 20 battles or so then I just never finished it. I dont get why people hate the subspace emissary. And I dont get why people hate brawl.

      I did not like 90% of world of light. However, I liked the Castlevania segment, and the last few fights where you literally get to play as master hand and then platform up to the final boss, kind of reminded me of subspace and made me happy, almost made it worth it but not really. Still really neat ending though!

    It’s sort of crazy how this mode was essentially sakurai’s last attempt at making a traditional Kirby game, and you can clearly see that in its design. I wish they didn’t have to make all of the challenges able to be done by all characters, cause then I feel like it would have matched the quality of the Kirby games sakurai worked on beforehand.

    I was looking specifically for someone with this opinion. Thank you!
    I was a young kid and I had my Nintendo Wii. Never played many games really. I saw Mario and played super smash bro’s brawl. Ended up being this amazing experience with a compelling cool story that even tho isn’t perfect is really good. You get attached to certain characters, there are tons of crossovers and honestly it felt fresh and nice to beat some crazy alien enemies left and right instead of the same cast over and over.
    Fighting a champion such as wario or an evil version of a character felt meaningful and rewarding.
    Platforming as much as I hear people don’t like. I thought it was really fun at the time, all these different mini puzzles and map mazes and platforming challenges.
    My cousin was younger than me and never really played games but we beat that mode together it was super fun.
    I just bought a switch for me and my girlfriend recently and I had not heard anything from smash ultimate other than some cool characters that are in it. I was so hyped and was thinking back to the memories of me playing the story mode all 3 times.
    I than bought a 63 dollar (with taxes) game and downloaded it. First cutscene hyped me up in story mode. But than I started getting more and more disappointed when I started fighting these cast members in basically custom brawl fights with atunements for no reason at all. No fight has felt meaningful yet. It’s just a maze of a board game with a bunch of random fights that are senseless.
    I still am gonna play this game for sure, and maybe try to beat the mode, but still I am slightly disappointed...

    I love Subspace Emmisary, because of a few reasons. It's a pretty great way of introducing all the characters to new players. If you play the whole thing then by the end you'll have played as almost every character. You fight the generic enemies so much that by the end of that 1 level you're pretty comfortable with the fighter's moveset and play style. That and by the end you have unlocked all but 3 of the fighters. So yah, you get used to each character and completing it unlocks most of the characters. And it looks visually amazing

    It’s the only reason I kept the brawl disc after all these years.
    Brawl essentially inspired me to get a Wii U and was kind of disappointed by the single player offerings of smash 4.

    The things is, Sakurai said that for him the cutscenes were a reward you'd get for playing the game and that he was sad that people uploaded them for everyone to see without "earning" them. So that's why we got animated reveal trailers (same conditions for watching them online or in the game) and only opening / closing cutscenes for world of light.
