      I wouldn't go and say Nick all star Brawl is dead, it's more on lfe support giving that how the devs are still bring more characters and stages even tho not many players are still playing the game.
      Unlike Multiversus the game hasn't fully come out yet, with their being still some bugs they need to be fix and other characters to add in the game. But by the looks of things this game might last a lot longer Nick Brawl and other dead Smash clones, but like you said time will tell.

    The moveset of Tom and Jerry is straight up genius.
    There are so many little nuances to each ability they have, with multiple variations depending on the state of Jerry, yet it all flows together incredibly well.

It's not a terrible game, it just doesn't feel super smooth and as fun as smash, or multiversus. Nick all stars felt almost like it was fanmade if that make sense. Multiversus doesn't.

In Smash all I ever want to play is 1v1, but when you look at MultiVersus you see all this team synergy put into not only the perks, but right in the characters move sets as well. In my eyes the team play with a friend is what really separates MultiVersus from Smash for me.

It really felt like a duo game, and it was quite easy to work around the toolkit of my partners even though we were two randoms with no communication.

      Characters actually have less moves in this game.
      A standard smash character will have:
      Jab*, Ftilt*, Utilt*, Dtilt*, Fsmash, Usmash, Dsmash, Nair*, Fair*, Bair, Uair*, Dair*, SideB*, UpB*, DownB*, NeutralB*, Fthrow, Bthrow, Uthrow, Dthow, pummel, final smash.
      A multiversus character only has the ones with an asterix plus the 4 specials have air versions. Thats 16 compared to 22 with 12 being the same. How it gets away with it is 1: moves are way more extreme, they’re fast, big, quick and strong quite often, especially compared to their smash counterparts. This doesnt leave any characters feeling particularly vulnerable due to lacking the right moves (although i do with they’d give superman a landing option). Secondly half of an MV fighter moveset is special moves, the moves that exemplify the characters the most, it gives every character such a strong flavour factor, even more than smash, it’s such a strong hook for character fans over fighter fans.

    • @cephery8482
      @cephery8482 2 года назад +46

    Multiversus could last years. WB makes pretty great games. The only problem is that they inevitably stop updating them after they figure out a ‘better’ method to advance in gaming. Like what happened with injustice. It could easily have a successor down the line. But I really hope that’s not the case. Just like in fortnite, you don’t always need to make a huge step up among another game. That can backfire hugely. Especially in a game that incentivizes you to grind for cosmetics. Let’s just hope this game keeps up the attention to detail and love.

    ts Honestly, I'm having a blast playing this game. When I started two days ago, I've played it with a buddy for like.. 6-8 hours, and then continued with 1v1s for another 4-6 hours, for a total of 12 hours. I'm a huge smash fan too, although I can't play it online at home because Nintendo doesn't like my internet, even though I have no problems with any other online game.
    It's f2p and available on several devices, if you look at what characters are leaked, the excitement gets even bigger. There's not a ranked mode yet, but it still has that competetive edge that I love, especially with a rank being available. The only thing I dislike about the game is people abusing their characters in unfair ways. (Faz with his tornado, although as a Jake main, that's no problem. But those Batmans that only fight while their throw thing is thrown is so fucking annoying while being so fast too.)
    All in all, I think it's gonna last for a good while, and if WB is smart and dives into the eSports scene with it as well, they're gonna be the #1 fighting game with ease, as Nintendo is more anti-community and eSports than anyone else.

    I think the game can have longevity if there's some tweaking to the amount of currency gained per 1v1 match. Keep in mind, you get a REALLY small amount of Gold per match in that mode. Which makes the main goal of unlocking characters far more tedious than it should. Teams however, that's fine. Especially if you play with a friend.
    Another thing I'd like to see is something beyond the for modes we already have. I know that's asking a lot, but when talking about pure love and respect, Smash Bros is one of the most beloved video games ever. So this game has to work extra hard to having more than half the staying power.
    That said, I've been having a blast. Been playing it with a friend who was SUPER excited about it and we've been making a great team. Might participate tournaments, who knows. 👀👀

    In my opinion, these kind of “smash” games should be pushed toward those who loved smash growing up. Nickelodeon really only has a few characters that people truly resonate with in comparison to that of WB, especially opening it up with third party characters too. DC, Looney Toons, Game of Thrones, Rick & Morty, Scooby-Doo. People love seeing their favorite characters in games and not only does WB have more of a chance to do it than others but I think the gameplay may evolve with new gamemodes and maps based around every character drop? Maybe? Hopefully? Seems like a great marketing model, F2P with battlebass in this type of game works imo

Also, Tony Huynh is a wizard when it comes to PR, he seems to have an uncanny understanding of how to pick the most valuable issues to address when people are bringing them up, and does so with great frequency, so players feel heard and appreciate it more.

The combat is fun as well! I played NASB for a month, and i kinda enjoyed it at first. But after i participated on closed alpha multiversus, the combat mechanics that multiversus has it just more smooth and more fun to play. Also, i get your point. Sometimes you can feel the grinding in the game when you want to unlock new characters, but it's worth your time to grind! And for a tip, you can just check the characters which you want to unlock on the lab and try it before you buying it! I kinda feel that this game will long last, cause unlike NASB this game hasn't official released, but they already introduce new 3 characters to us (Lebron, Rick, and Morty). And it's free, it's not a dlc. You just have to grind to unlock it like the others :)

    i’ve never been a huge fan of fighting games. bought ssbu because all my friends had it and were not doing anything else. it was pretty enjoyable with such a huge roster but still felt incomplete if that’s the right word. it felt like there was something that just wasn’t there. after playing multiversus i learned that it’s the speed. the intense speed of the game compared to ssbu is just crazy. i hated the shield mechanic in ssbu because almost the entire game revolves around it. in multi though, there isn’t really a mechanic that the game revolves around. you could argue that dodging is the core mechanic but i think that they did a very good job balancing dodging and combos, for the most part, on a lot of characters. i’m very excited to see where this game ends up in the future as i’ve already spent $40 on it. if there’s one thing i’m literally begging for in this game it’s more Cartoon Network characters. i don’t have the roster in front of me so off the top of my head, i can only think of 2 (Taz and Bugs, idk if any other characters are). there may be more than i know of but there’s so much potential with cartoon network. so yeah, if this game dies anytime soon i would be very disappointed as there’s so much potential with characters (just look up how many companies warner brothers own, it’s crazy).

    I wish I understood the love for this game's flow. I agree with everything you said about the game, but when I play it, something about how the movement and attacks don't work for me. it's like the extreme opposite of clunky, it feels too weightless and floaty, like how the hit stun works, being sort of short and hard for me to register.
    In SSBU, the hits really felt impactful and the character's movement really had weight to it. In Brawlhalla, the game focused more on fluidity and freedom of movement in a responsive way, as this game does. Thing is, Brawlhalla didn't (eventually) have the freedom at the cost of weight, and by having more friction, stronger gravity, and dashes( a replacement for grounded side dodges that didn't give invincibility but also didn't bring you to a halt when the dash is finished, even putting you into a sprint instead), and air movement that for feels snappier, quicker and more responsive than Multiversus.
    At least for me. I appreciate everything that Multiversus does well, but at the end of the day, I can't enjoy the game as much as it deserves me to, because of issues that seem more personal to me. If anyone else here somehow read all of this and has a similar feeling about this, please tell me if you'd like!

Bugs and Taz are the sole reason why I’ve tried out Multiversus and the gameplay has kept me engaged. I gave Smash a try but I never had the same feeling as I did when playing Multiversus. My theory is that because I did not grow up with video games, I didn’t have any attachment to the characters. I hardly had any knowledge on Nintendo stuff, but I have so many huge memories tied to Looney Tunes. It’s probably dumb, but stuff like characters is really important to me.

This can result is great success, or instant failure. Seen a couple Platform fighters get traction. But most the time they just live in the massive shadow casted by smash.
    Personally Multiversus seems more like Rivals of Aether. Which was designed to be more like Melee. But still is not a clone at all.

They added perks, character roles, and focused on 2v2s just to name a few differentiators. I feel like out of the recent games, NASB is the one that's heavily inspired by Melee because of the raw and fast gameplay. I get why people feel like the game is clunky, but once you learn the movement, it's far from it. I love both games and I hope NASB gets another chance once crossplay is added and I hope MVS does well too.

    The only other fighting games ive genuinely enjoyed was Smash… except… im having more fun on Multiversus than i ever did Smash. I prefer the fast paced adaptive gameplay, smash is just combos and full of weak and super broken characters. Multiversus, i dont feel any character is broken (including Finn for y’all who just suck at the game), i can beat any character with any character and i dont have to practice stupid combos that dont even work because it doesnt register the buttons ive pressed properly. Also what you said about the voices and personalities is 100% true, even Smash was a struggle for me because im not a massive nintendo fan but Multiversus, im a fan of most of the characters outside of the game. The progression is also a magnet for me, i love games with meaningful leveling or uncapped meaningless levels both for their own reasons (this is a combination)
    And cant forget my love for the different gamemodes, 2s is my favourite and the characters synergize well but in smash it is not the same and people only ever want to do duels. The movement itself feels easier in MV than smash, smash is too smooth if that makes any sense, i would always walk off the map or mess up my combos because it was too smooth, which reminds me, i hated how hard it was to recover on smash and how each character had a differently distanced recovery. Dodging > Blocking.
    Also you can test characters you dont own in lab so that Velma thing is on you homie.
    As someone who doesnt mind dropping a couple bucks on a battle pass every now and then (as long as it doesnt take 100 hours) i am very much looking forward to leveling up the future passes and unlocking cool cosmetics, it’s just more reason to play. Im a consumer, I LOVE CAPITALISM

    One thing I love is that online is actually the main focus of this game whereas Nick it felt like they were just adding it in to appeal to the fans. Like nick had rollback but the rank system and the matchmaking screen just look awful. Multi also has leveling which is just a great way to make you feel more attached to a game and other people can view your profile which adds more competitiveness to this leveling feature which will also make the game last longer. Another thing is the fact that characters don’t have a level cap and when you first join a game everyone in the lobby can see your level which adds another leveling mechanic that players will wanna level up so they can be the highest in the lobby.

    Multiversus, at least in my opinion, tried to replicate Smash Melee movement, which is the best thing it could've done. It even has wavedashing, characters like Arya can cancel movements to slide across the stage and cause insane mixups. It is so fluid, for lack of better word. A lot of competitive Nintendo fighting games can be traced back to melee, and Multiversus feels like it mastered that formula and knew what its audience was looking for, and by far a bigger character lineup that include really small intricacies that adds so much personality.

    Because you can tell that WB was meaning business when they said that a lot of the attention to detail is there to voice acting to representation. Espeically when you can tell Nick messed up huge when they didn't gave the Slap City Devs that are working on it still a budget of a shoestring fries.
    Not to mention of Hungry Box stirring a hornets nest when it came to calling Nick Allstars "the Smash Killer" when he should very know well on how cultist Nintendo fans get when it comes to taking jokes more of threats.

    I heard Brawl Stars a lot when you were presumably talking about NASB, was that just me?
    Anyway, I made this comment to say none of these games are ‘smash clones’. Platform fighters are a genre, yes lots of them are similar, but ARE NOT CLONES.
    That is the point of genres, to group a certain type of game. Just because SSB was the first one (I don’t even know if that’s true) doesn’t mean that all new platform fighters are copying it.
    This is why I get annoyed at people who call any MetroidVania (normally Ori) a Hollow Knight clone. Ori even came out BEFORE HK and people call it a clone.
    They are all their own games with unique personalities and charm.
    Smash created the genre yes, but not all platform fighters are a smash clone.

    In regards to buyers remorse with new characters, Multiversus does something great that even premium fighting games don't do, and that's allowing you to use characters you don't own in the lab! Besides getting to see if a character is right for you, it means you don't have to spend money on unlocking a character just to practice the matchup.
