    Default So, those Smash reveals

    Has anyone seen the final DLC reveal for smash? Apparently, aside from Cloud (who is available NOW) we are getting Corrin - the avatar from FE fates (available as both male and female) and Bayonetta. And there's a bunch of new costumes, including Geno.

    Can't we just get Geno already? That would be nice.

    But nice, Bayonetta! Might actually download that one.

    There you go. Geno costume for the Mii Gunner (yes, that is real).



    Overall, I enjoyed the new reveals. Just not happy that there are no more coming.

    I'm still weirded out by Cloud being in Smash. On the topic of the new characters, I think there's enough FE already, but I have no issues with Bayonetta being in it.

    I mean ACTUALLY get Geno, not a costume. I knew about the costume already.

    Well, there will be no more announcements, so don't get your hopes up.

    Same as I wanted Dunban or Elma to be in it, but we already got a Dunban costume, so yeah, what were the chances of that happening...

    The Bayonetta one seems a bit.. weird. Smash is all about the "family-friendliness", and she is one of the least "family-friendly" characters video game characters ever. I mean, when she attacks, her clothes come off. They could always dial down the sexual element of her character, but that is literally one of the central elements of her character.

    So they're going to fundamentally change the character of Bayonetta in order to make her "family friendly". Why not just use a popular character who's more "family friendly" to begin with?

    Bayonetta is just so over the top, though, that she crosses the line twice and in her hypersexuality she is actually just... not sexual anymore XD

    So... she's so sexual that she's not sexual? Can you draw me a diagram to explain that, Fynn?

    It's the same phenomena you see when movies are so bad that they become good.
    everything is wrapped in gray
    i'm focusing on your image
    can you hear me in the void?

    Or comedy where you take something that is incredibly brutal and gory but make it SO brutal and gory that it is no longer horrifying, instead being comical.

    For Bayonetta, it's enough to look at how long her legs are. yes, long legs are ac typically sexualized trait of women. but hers are so long that she really doesn't look like anything sexy anymore, and yet she still flaunts them every step of the way. She's a caricature of sexualized women in media, and this was very much intentional.

    Let me make a parallel to your preference, maybe. So, uh... So, muscles on men are considered sexy, right? But are bodybuilders (in mainstream media, of course - I'm not judging anyone's fetishes) ever presented as something desireable? When they're not meant to be physically imposing or downright monstrous, they usually aren't cast as a serious half of a romantic relationship.

    Thank you for translating your point into gay for me, Fynn. I think I get what you mean now.
