    Custom moves were a cool idea. They can be brought back but sadly it may have to be scaled back significantly such as just having one alt move per character. Also another ideal is just to have an alternative final smash for each character

    • @CarbonRollerCaco
      @CarbonRollerCaco 2 года назад +21

      One alt special set+one alt FS each fighter sounds fine to me. Adds variety while being WAY less of a pain to bugfix and playbalance. And for characters with lots of similar moves, have different sets be merely cosmetic and tied to specific fighter alts. So, say, the odd Mega Man models could get the Leaf Shield and Skull Barrier while the even ones could get the Star Crash (EDIT: changed from Jewel Satellite because the sequel progression makes more sense and my dumb ass never thought to launch the Star Crash when I was younger so I'd forgotten that was a thing) and Plant Barrier.

    In addition to character concepts, he’s also made concepts for new custom moves for pre-existing characters. And he’s been coming up with a lot of ideas that are not only faithful references to the character, but sound like balanced alternatives as well.
    Some of my favorites include a Lizal Boomerang for Link that curves on the way back, K. Rool’s crown from his beta design that…aw crap, can’t remember what it did, and Samus’ Morph Ball being changed to a jump instead of dropping a bomb, increasing her evasion.

    I miss them. I can't speak for the competitive scene because I'm a casual player, but the unique examples you gave with Luigi, Bowser, Pac-Man, and the sheer diversity with Mega Man and Palutena are classics. Other examples that stood out to me personally were Mario's Scalding F.L.U.D.D. *finally* giving me a reason to use the move and appreciate the reference, and the option to make Charizard's Side-B not damage itself (albeit at the cost of some of its raw power), as I'm personally not a fan of such moves in fighting games. Plus, in the game's Trophy Rush mode, it was useful to have more means of doing immediate damage. What was NOT fun is just how much of a pain they were to collect. I would've rather had to unlock more characters, and have them come with all of their custom moves right away, or at least eliminate repeats.

    For Luigi's Fireball, it was changed to green to more differentiate it from Mario's but also as a reference to the fireballs in the Mario Bros. game, where there are red/orange fireballs that bounce on the ground and green fireballs that float in the air.
    It also fits with Luigi's personality in Smash, being a quirky, different version of Mario. Mario's Fireball is a straightforward and easy to use ball that bounces on the ground and falls in the air, while Luigi's moves completely different and stays in the air.

    Actually getting those custom moves was a bit of a hassle, which made it feel not right to play as. Which is another point for your argument. It seems they realized how difficult of an idea this was and though they finished it, they didn't want to make it front and center, so they made using these new toys a bit of a drain to even unlock.
    I can easily imagine a "character level-up" system, if they still wanted it progression based, where each level would unlock a new custom move, similar to the Amiibo system instead of... completely random.

    No, I'm pretty sure they were removed because most people hardly ever used them, not helped by the fact that the DLC characters (aka the ones fans liked the most) didn't even have custom moves.

  • @D_YellowMadness
    @D_YellowMadness 2 года назад +1

    I imagine the problem with giving Luigi iceballs is that being able to freeze people that easily would give him a braindead way to combo his neutral special into all of his other moves, meaning he could only be balanced if everything else about him was terrible. That & it just doesn't make sense thematically because he's never been associated with ice.

    I don’t mean to be rude, but Luigi’s green fireballs are different. Mario’s is affected by gravity, while Luigi’s isn’t. This is a reference to Mario bros. The arcade game as the differences still exist the bros didn’t throw them, but they were hazards in the game.

  • @Liggliluff

    With all the time they saved on not making custom moves for all the characters, it's a real shame they couldn't just add a few more to the mii fighters. They don't need completely original ideas either, just make moves inspired by other fighters. - Then when the "premium" mii costumes were released: Sans, Cuphead, Bomberman, they should have created 4 new moves for each of these, special made with these characters in mind (but available for any costume to use), so you have an official Cuphead moveset for example (neutral and side special being bullets like Megaman).

    the custom moves were interesting.

Also, I'd love for those two moves to be officially included in Smash Ultimate, because Super Smash Brothers Ultimate mods can get you banned from Nintendo online

    Honestly, I think it would've been really cool if some of these special moves replaced their original versions in ultimate (Palutena aside, since a lot of her custom moves did get brought back.)
    Luigi with the ice flower would make sense to be a reference to new super mario brothers (rather than the arcade games.)
    Toon link with a big bomb that has different physics would make him feel less like an echo fighter of young link and more like an original character.
    My point is that some of these special moves would be much better suited for the character than the original move.

  • @themonkeyman2910
    @themonkeyman2910 2 года назад +1

    I firmly believe that Luigi should’ve had iceballs replace his green fireballs. Maybe buff both Mario and Luigi’s fireballs.
    Mario’s fireballs deal a tiny fraction of dmg over time effect, like, 0.6% per second, and lasts for 3 seconds.
    Luigi would get the iceballs, and they would lightly slow the opponent down for 5 seconds.

Saying “these people were passionate” is not brushing a big flaw in game companies under the rug, for melee they had to get it out by the release of the console, and “you think they would have learned their lesson” is very insensitive as I think this was also a decision they didn’t make. Although I may be wrong I am basing this belief off of other game companies and past circumstances.

      And why is it a problem if they are broken? they are optional, you can disable them if you rather not use them and still play normally. It is like someone going 'oh no, remove items from the game, some are broken!'. But they don't, since they are just optional and you can toggle them out. Just because they might cause trouble for tournaments or for some people, doesn't mean they can't be enjoyed just for people wanting to have a fun time playing solo or against the cpu.

    Especially since we now have Pokémon Trainer. What would the Down Special variants be? Additionally having Squirtle and Ivysaur as well as Charizard would add to the difficulty in programming. 80+ characters * 4 specials each * 3, that would be over 960 moves. I think we should be content with the Miis having customizations, rather than asking for more.

    What are your thoughts on Multiversus' approach?
    From what I understand, the perks change the speed and power of the fighter's hitboxes and hurtboxes to better fit the style of the player. It may be available to all characters (they all share the same perks). And is accessed/unlocked very easily.
    Spoiler : Each characters have unique perks that change something about their special moves. I know this last bit has no official explanation, but it was one of the few things I got spoiled on (I didn't test the game).

  • @aidanpalmer4720
    @aidanpalmer4720 2 года назад

    The problem with specials is that most of them are just 3 categories: balanced speed/mobility and power/knockback (the default option), faster speed / more mobility but less damage/knockback or none at all, and lower speed / mobility but more damage/knockback. Aka: default, fast and weak, and slow and powerful. Of course not all moves fall into this, but most do. Though I feel like megaman had the most effort put into his specials because none of his specials fall into these categories (besides arguably down special).
