| Ganoncrotch said: The thing is though Sakurai correctly said that Subspace was basically a cool experience just one time because of the cutscenes, and what happened was a lot of people just uploaded those cutscenes and people experienced those "epic moments" without ever actually playing the game, without context or more damaging to Brawl, without actually buying the game since the viewer of that cutscene didn't need to buy the video game and pay Nintendo for the most epic part of it. "Unfortunately, the movie scenes we worked hard to create were uploaded onto the internet. You can only truly wow a player the first time he sees [a cutscene]. I felt if players saw the cutscenes outside of the game, they would no longer serve as rewards for playing the game, so I've decided against having them." Keep in mind too just how many cutscenes there are in subspace, there's literally hours of movies, that shit takes so much work to render and put together and the end result can all be watched now on youtube, all the viewer misses out on is a 2 minute fight in between the movies.... and ya know, buying a Wii and the game from Nintendo. |
Sounds like an excuse to leave an ultimate single-player mode out of Smash Bros Ultimate.
Can you imagine how awesome Subspace Emissary 2 would be with updated design (in a Kirby Superstar style way)? Cooperative play?
I'd have bought Smash Bros Ultimate if it were for another Subspace Emissary mode. My big issue with Smash is that I don't much enjoy it as a competitive multiplayer game... and I know that's the POINT, but I find it gets a bit repetitive (yet, ironically I am a big fan of Tetris 99... but I also generally HATE puzzle games too =D). Subspace Emissary is virtually the only mode of Smash Bros I have put significant time into since the original game on N64. Well... I did put a few hours into fighting Link vs Cloud in the last Smash Bros game, pretty much since it is kind of one of those dream bouts - but that's about all the gameplay I got out of it.... BIG waste of money IMO =D
I describe myself as a little dose of toxic masculinity.
