    Letting pro smash players get hands on the game and showcase it lends a ton of credibility to the kickstarter. I'm glad they waited until they actually had the game at this advanced stage to launch the campaign.

    I'm very glad Aether Studios waited for this point in development to launch the Kickstarter and let people play it.
    Based on Rivals 1, I have full confidence in Dan & Co., but seeing how far along and developed the mechanics are is reassuring. If a game launches into Early Access or crowdsourced fundraising too early, it can really hurt a game's profile, or even derail the whole project.
    A prominent platform fighting example would be Fraymakers. That game went into Early Access WAY to early, when the game not only had a small amount of fighters, but several of their animations were VERY far from finished. From what I can tell, it killed a lot of the hype around that game. You only get one chance at a first impression!

      Yes and no. A lot of people probably will move to Rivals 2, but people that have invested too much time amd brand identity into Melee will probably stick with Melee. Most of the people who move will be low to mid level melee and PM players, or people who primarily played Rivals 1. A lot of higher tier smash pros will definitely try it out, though.

      Who said 3D kills the Workshop? You know you can still use sprites right? And tbhonestly who cares about mismatching art-styles, functionally its even better now cuz you can choose between 2D or 3D, and animating in 3D actually takes way less time compared to just hand-drawing every single sprite in 2D, not to mention its a no-brainer for the skins, you just have to make the animations once and youre good to go, ALSO again nobody said the game wont have the Workshop supported, it just wont be available on at launch.

    • @Extracredittttt
      @Extracredittttt 11 місяців тому

      ​@@SimoneBellomonteI would actually disagree with this. I think ledge trumping is significantly more casual oriented while ledge hogging is more competitive
      This is because ledge hogging makes edge guards better which makes "the corner" and corner pressure way more significant and therefore stage positioning as a whole more relevant. It makes strategy more dynamic
      Trumping ensures that it is more likely everyone will get back to stage more often which is nice for casuals but less for competitive players.
      In a competition, when you read that someone is choosing to or has to go to ledge, that should be the stock imo.
      glad you're so excited for rivals 2 though! I love your enthusiasm :)

I have no doubt the furry community will be behind this game 100% at launch, which is a good thing for the longevity of the game. They kept Fighting Herds alive for a while. It’s just going to have to play exceptionally well for me to want to pick it up when it drops. I’m sure multiversus will be back by then, maybe some smash news and we’ll see NASB survives.

    It looks great but it's weird how every platform fighter just lacks that movement that ultimate has. It's hard to explain but ultimate just feels so precise.

      The tools to be that precise absolutely exist in a game like this. Dash dancing and wavedashing give you really fine control over your micro-spacing if applied well.

      Thank fuck nobody's trying to replicate Ultimate's movement. The ground feels so sticky in there. There's WAY too much traction.

      There are a lot of unique things to Rivals that no other smash game or platform fighter has. But yes the first one was partially taken from the DNA of melee and P+ and they are building on that framework
      Rivals 1 and 2 both have a ton of unique factors though! one of the most creative entires in the genre imo

      It's crazy how inattentive you are considering the numerous gameplay differences, and how indolent you are to not do your research or even play the first game for ANY point of reference when writing your comment despite how objectively wrong you are.

      I love it when Smash players see something that looks similar to Smash, and then act as if being similar to the game they like is a bad thing. Like, Smash proves that its game style can work, so I don't get why only Smash and Smash alone is allowed to have said game style and other developers can't take a shot at it as well.
      If this is so similar, may I ask what they could do to make themselves different from Smash?

      yeah tbh i don't blame you after nsab1, multiversus, fraymakers and all the other "smash killers". but after the insane support Dan and aether studios has put into the first game for 7 years it gives me the most hope thus far for a platform fighter's future going forward

      ⁠@@AziDoesQuestionableThingsevery platform fighter isn’t a “smash killer” what is up with this weird idea? Every fighting game that comes out doesn’t get called a “street fighter killer”. No one who plays or develops these platform fighters wants them to be “smash killers” it’s so bizarre

      I think it comes from the necessity of having a star-studded cast or highly recognisable roster to try and compete with the roster of smash while not being mechanically interesting enough to differentiate itself, it's my personal interpretation of what a "smash killer" is

      This is one of the most braindead takes I've seen in a while. You can voice your opinion, but it has no merit or validity if you are spouting shit without fully experiencing the game. I had the exact same thought process as you until I actually sat down and sunk in time to rivals 1. And let me tell you, the gameplay design and engines have EXTREMELY different philosophies compared to smash. Smash is made to be a fun party game with balanced enough characters for competitive play. Rivals on the other hand focuses on making the game as smooth as possible with a movement system that takes good things from melee and improves upon it; as well as making characters with mechanical synergy and spatial resources to make the competitive play more dynamic. Rivals 2 is just an expansion of the first, adding new mechanics and switching to 3d to appeal to a new audience. I encourage you to actually have backing to your statement, and not just saying it's a "smash clone." Same genre, not the same game.

      The only things that’s rivals 2 has similar to smash is the shield and trapping the edge of the wall and grabs. That’s pretty much it everything else is from its original game rivals of aether. Stop being a hater.
