Last thing I'll say before dipping out is that I just want more quirky fighters. Swordsmen and karate masters and people with guns are in every fighter.

So Rayman or Spyro or even some more throwback characters to Nintendo's weirder arcade titles are always welcome. I guess Shovel Knight is somewhere along that line? Even still, I really doubt he has any chance.

I...don't find Roy fun to play. He feels like a brick when he's in the air and I don't think I can hit anybody with his aerials.

In my personal opinion, half his appeal in this game is his stupid forward smash.

Roy is my favorite of the Fire Emblem fighters. I love his fire attacks and the strength at the bottom of his sword.

I would be so happy if Spyro and/or Crash Bandicoot got in. I loved those games. They'd probably have fairly interesting movesets too.

I love the FE characters, but I would've taken any other lord over Roy. Never played Melee, so I got no attachment.

My Glory win rate is below 60%... Urrrgh.

And I do both FFA and 1v1 matches. Only ever had a single Team Battle on FG. Not gonna bother since with my luck, it'll be like Splatoon all over again...

For Glory sucks all the fun out of Smash for me. I only like it because it attracts people to Smash, and thus gets the people who made Smash to make more Smash.

Any online play at all really is no good for me. I don't care for the lag or the dumb tricks people use to fight.

I second this. Nothing against Roy, Ryu, or Cloud, but a more "video-gamey" character as DLC would be welcome at this point. Heck, it's part of the reason I like Smash, and in Playstation All-Stars I felt like the quirky characters were all overshadowed by the other fighters.

I never played a Spyro game, but I kind of like the idea of him being in the game just because he'd be quadrupedal, like Ivysaur was.

For Glory is actually a pretty bad method of calculating who's good, because there are so many who are actually good at real life 1v1s and such who can't even take For Glory. It's just really unstable and some people are potatoes when it comes to exploiting it.

Yes I used potatoes as an insult.

If nothing else, I appreciate Roy for some of the silly scenarios you can set up with him, i.e. Roy vs. seven Lv. 9 Roys set to the tune of Royals. I also like him because yay, GBA representation.

As far as where he ranks compared to the other FE characters for me: Robin>Roy>Ike>Marth>Lucina. Roy in particular, I like for his speed and raw power.

[up][up]What does that even mean?!

Anyway, I don't particularly mind Roy. Yeah, the only reason he got back in was to pander to Melee fans, and as a character he's extremely bland, but he's fun to play as and I don't really feel like he detracts from the game.

It's not like we'd have gotten somebody else instead of him.

If a franchise I love is going to get accused of over-representation constantly it could at least be on account of a character that's worth caring about.

People were already accusing FE of being "overrepped" considering it got 4 characters, two from Awakening when most people did not expect more than three. And when people found out that Metroid and the Donkey Kong franchise didn't get any new characters during the time that the roster for Smash 4 got leaked, quiet a number of people truly got angry.

Kid Icarus also has that accusation and it only has 3 fighters.

Personally I kinda like minor franchises getting bigger representation.

Everything gets people angry in Smash though.

I don't care for Roy myself, but a ton of people were asking for him to come back everywhere and that's how he came back, same with Lucas who if I remember correctly was the most desired character in Japan to return before his announcement (and I think Roy was like 4th?) so him coming back is really no surprise.

Maybe because Fire Emblem and Kid Icarus have the two worst clones in the game?

FE getting more reps doesn't bother me, but Metroid and Donkey Kong NOT getting more reps does sorta disappoint me. I have a feeling that a certain crocodile with an eye tic is dropping by, though.

I was a little disappointed at the lack of Dixie, but it wasn't because of Dark Pit. It was because of me seeing Duck Hunt in the roster.

I didn't like Duck Hunt at first either, but he's really grown on me.

I like Duck Hunt.

I guess I overlooked Rayman, but he's really not that big.

Despite that I prefer several other Nippon Ichi characters to him, I'd like to see Laharl playable, with Etna, Flonne, Prinny(dood), Asagi, Pleinair and others as support characters coming out for attacks.

They play really well for me, too, though R.O.B.'s still my Robotic Operating Badass.

Duck Hunt's grown on me, but he was a really "What the fuck, Sakurai?!? You put him in and not -insert character that has been requested-?!?" choice at first.
