wait. so if im reading this right, Ryu, like from Street Fighter, is a possible DLC character?
Gross
hear me out though, doesn't it seem like putting a character from an actual Fighting Game franchise in a party style mascot beat em up a little.. strange?
I mean the charm of Smash for me at least has always been that the characters in it aren't traditionally from fighting games, hell most of them don't even fit in a fighting game at first glance
This is like having Venus and Serena Williams as DLC characters for Mario Tennis, a little on the nose, doncha think?
"but Ryu is a video game character, not real, its not the same at all. He's part of Capcom's legacy and is a good choice"
nope, he is an easy choice, not a good one. There are plenty of other mascots that fit the "fish out of water" placement style the game has had for 4 titles.
anyway, im rambling, don't mind me
TLDR: Ryu is a crap choice for DLC, imo
