i responsedbdefensively because you sounded dismissive
"but it seems mostly just hatred towards Sakurai Product cause to me it seems like. Fine."
so i wanted to explain further since it felt like you were oversimplifying my issue with it
my bad if i misunderstood tone

inherently worse? probably not. better than the 22 year old game on the gamecube? i dont think so, and thats fucking sad to me

senti ! @sentism.bsky.social · 13h

just saying "Sakurai Product" is wrong because there's so much about the way the game is because of his direction
the UI looking exactly like SSBU and nothing like Kirby (esp Air Ride), the lack of respect for later kirby games in the City Trial (the main appeal), and also yeah im biased against him

senti ! @sentism.bsky.social · 14h

thats fair! im just sooo bitter towards sakurai at this point because of his treatment of the competitive smash bros community, his mindset centred on casual fans, the cult of personality that has formed around him, and also just a dislike of the new air riders (its style does not say Kirby to me)

Trying to figure out how I want to draw Weaver anatomy

Design depiction of the First Sinner from silksong, the left image with her four arms crossed over her chest and the right with them outspread. The character is drawn with many black, spindly spider limbs. #silksong #SilksongSpoilers #art #fanart 🖌️

this is entirely speculative benefit of the doubt for the ssbu team. 50% of an entire massive Nintendo franchise's representation being from a single game (Super Star) is preposterous and should not be considered acceptable for Ult. they updated Link's design and moveset, but did squat for Kirby

senti ! @sentism.bsky.social · 17h

definitely a fair point to make! however, as a director, he gets final say on what gets included, the decision making, and the direction he wants the game to go. this is very different from a full dev team developing the mechanics and engine of the game, whose team effort should be commended

senti ! @sentism.bsky.social · 17h

suzie, magalor, and bandana dee are playable in air riders, yes. what else do they get? city trial? nothing. karts? nada.
and then just look at smash bros. the meat of the game, the playable characters and stages. kirby is hella represented, but that chalks up to 85% being from sakurai era

senti ! @sentism.bsky.social · 17h

ive lost the plot by not allowing myself to respect him for something in his personal life, that i have no business knowing about? i see him as a game dev and i dont think looking at his personal life for ways to "respect" him is very healthy and can almost feel like it forms a cult of personality

senti ! @sentism.bsky.social · 17h

his work for the collabs in ultimate was awesome! however, the obvious favouritism and lack of game balance with DLC kills any hype for it for me. plus, fatigue from games like Fortnite has me jaded with collab hype personally, though Sakurai and his team did do incredible work with some characters

senti ! @sentism.bsky.social · 17h

how can u dismiss an entire active competitive community for a 24 year old game because its "niche"
what especially is important about why i brought up melee is sakurais statements about how its "too technical" and "scared away casuals", which also exposes what i hate about his design philosophy

senti ! @sentism.bsky.social · 18h

also how he treats the kirby franchise is infantile and embarrassing. he almost entirely refuses to acknowledge anything past 1997 because thats when his personal departure from the series was. the lack of pretty much anything post super star in all of smash bros has always been such a frustration

senti ! @sentism.bsky.social · 18h

hes the director but that doesnt mean he deserves the credit. one of his goals with smash bros post melee was trying to eclipse it in popularity and he failed in the long run.
"hard worker loving father proud cat owner" does not mean shit unless ur parasocial as fuck.
his game dev vids are neat tho
