RE: Super Smash Bros. Ultimate | Last DLC Fighter Is...! - Moonface - Oct 5th, 2021
I don't think any character could ever be the perfect final choice for this game given the sheer scale of those shoes to fill. However, I think this is one of the closest choices you can get to perfection as a final send off when it's been the one character requested more than any other for the last six years. Others could have potentially been just as close to perfect for a final choice, but even as someone not a fan of Kingdom Hearts this reveal was impressive for me because as has been said, it was obvious and even safe (especially when so many people asked for this one) but this clearly wasn't easy to pull off. The poll was six years ago and the top result took until now to pull off because it's Disney of all companies that Sakurai had to deal with.
I also don't know how it did it given that I have zero attachment to Sora or Kingdom Hearts but that trailer gave me goosebumps. Maybe it was the music but whatever it was I find it nuts that this trailer is the one for a new character that hit me more than any others, including characters I actually liked or were more surprising. This didn't hit me as a holy shit surprise type of reveal but it was the one that made me feel something more than just hype alone.
At the end of the day, Sakurai could work on this until we all die and the roster would still be lacking someone. Whether you think it could've been better, worse, or that it's just perfect as it is, no one can deny the love Sakurai has given this game and series. No one would ever believe this game would exist if you went back even five years and detailed every single thing this game has to offer. You can't please everyone, but fuck me if the man didn't do a damn good job.

So I just got back into playing this recently and somehow @ShiraNoMai and I never noticed there's a Classic Mode in this game despite putting hundreds of hours into it. I always thought the only notable single player mode (that isn't just Smash) was World of Light.
I also didn't know that characters had certain abilities, such as Lucario being able to deal more damage with aura moves based on how much damage he has taken.
And for anyone who wants to see a neat challenge for this game and maybe even try it themselves, I recommend this video:
This is also the video I started watching that got me to boot the game up again. I stopped when I suddenly discovered that I was not as close to the end of World of Light as I thought I was. XD
RE: Super Smash Bros. Ultimate | Last DLC Fighter Is...! - Mr EliteL - Nov 22nd, 2021
Neither of you noticed there was Classic Mode, and you have not beaten World of Light yet? WAT R U DOIN.
I remember watching Nairo beat WoL with no spirits and such, and yeah that is quite a challenge. Although I'd rather not have to start resorting to cheap tactics or spamming moves over and over to win, so I'll keep away from that.
I need to play again too, barely played when Sora came out and haven't touched SSBU since.

If we did notice it we didn't think it had tailored routes for every character nor that it unlocked things. We also hadn't played the game since January 2019 so I started doubting if Classic Mode was in the game at launch. I also thought the game didn't offer a stage builder this entire time too.
RE: Super Smash Bros. Ultimate | Last DLC Fighter Is...! - Mr EliteL - Nov 22nd, 2021
Yeah Classic has been there since launch. I haven't actually completed all of Classic Mode, as I know I haven't done the characters from the DLC Pack 2 yet, possibly all if not most from Pack 1, might have done Joker's.
The stage builder I'm not fond of, I prefer Brawl's version really. I like what some people have done in the Share part online but it's mainly them drawing characters with the tools in there.
