how would this game go about unlocking, incidentally?

brawl did it through story mode, but iirc this game doesnt have one?

I wouldn't even mind if it did, but I don't see any reason to think it will.

I must say, I think Hyrule Warriors is somewhat harming my opinion on Zelda characters in Smash. Everyone just looks so cool in HW and has all these amazing moves. Meanwhile, I know in my heart tha Smash Ganondorf will once again be Slow Falcon.

I have a message from another time...

@Irene: Why would they reveal locked characters? Except Snake/Sonic, but they had to reveal those for legal reasons.

Anniversaries. We were told Luigi's reveal was special. Wasn't Lucario's on Brawl's release day, just years later, where he talked about how hard the Brawl team worked on him?

And every game had unlockables. I doubt that'll change.

We've unlocked characters through VS matches, and general single player stuff. Not just SSE.

[up][up]A captain stays with the ship. Therefore, sticking with the thread gives Kaptain K Rool a higher chance.

I am probably the only person who wants this rumor to be real but is 100% sure it isn't.

I really am sorry for pulsing through periods of sanity and melodrama like I do over and over again. I haven't had an outlet in a while. So whenever I get my hopes up for something that might help and it doesn't deliver, I spiral for a bit and then, eventually, bottle it up. Which builds and builds until I get my hopes up and shot down again, rinse and repeat.

Find a game to play, man.

I do find some irony in this suggestion considering the topic, but still.

Brawl had multiple ways of unlocking characters. Going through the Subspace Emissary was just one of them.

Why? I mean, I'm not a fan of Doctor Mario or Dark Pit. But I don't think anything's really missing.

I'd really like it if Bowser Jr. was playable. And I'm fine with the rest...It's just, there's no Ice Climbers. sad

The Ice Climbers are my favorite character, I'd definitely say that's something important missing. If they're not in the game, I'm honestly not even going to buy it. Although, my brother will probably get it, so I'll probably try it.

But if they ARE in the game, it's a day-one buy from me.

I guess it's just cause I never really used Ice Climbers.

A little... extreme, don't you think?

I mean, I've heard similar opinions about other uncomfirmed characters expressed in far more vulgar ways, but the whole "won't buy the game if one character is absent" thing is pretty silly to me. We have a pretty big roster with some exciting newcomers, so skipping the whole thing due to a single snub doesn't make much sense.

I dunno, I guess someone could see it that way? But I don't really feel emotional or anything. It's not like I'm outraged or indignant anything. And it's my money, so...

I can totally understand not buying a game if your primary way of playing it has been removed.

[up][up][up]Seems completely fair to me. Also, there is a remainder to that post, even as you quoted.

I mean, a Soul Calibur game that removes Talim and Zasalamel certainly isn't going to help me decide I want to buy it...

It's hard to see how anyone could pay forty or so dollars because of a single character. Do they play and enjoy no one else?

The idea that the Ice Climbers might not be included with Super Smash Bros 4 is insane. There is really no reason to believe this other than the fake leak. Either they will be shown off in due time, or Sakurai wants to leave it a surprise.

[up][up][up][up] Granted, it is a bit different with Smash because there are so few installments and each one tries to be so spectacular, but I can understand being in the mentality of not buying a fighting game because your mains aren't in it. Sometimes, a person's main is what draws them to a new installment in the first place.
