I got to play Kragg in Rivals 2 so you know what that means. I get to put my opinion on the internet! How does the game stack up to the first Rivals of Aether? How does Kragg cargo throw work? Why does everyone play Zetterburn? All will be answered, and more!
I'm gonna talk about My own first impressions with the game, how the game felt to play, as well as questions people had for SBS while playing.

I'll be honest with ya'll. I recorded my thoughts and edited all of this after catching the Flu. If it seems a little rushed, that's why lmao Edit: Oop forgot to edit out a bad recording take in there lmao

@Toma_ 8 месяцев назад

Copy and pasting a response to a very similar comment: I think Workshop will likely not be a thing until the game's end-of-life, much like Rivals 1. If I'm right we're looking at 3 or 4 years after launch (maybe more). The game has GOT to stand on its own before allowing people to put goofy ahh characters in the game

I know it isnt about Rivals 2 but There is a popular Ganondorf in the workshop maybe you should do a video about it. It probably help your channel grow to since Ganondorf is a fun character but idk tho

@MrSkerpentine 9 месяцев назад

I love that you actually own an irl copy Rattle Me Bones. Did you get it before or after making the Workshop character? Lol My only gripe with how the looks is the CSS and HUD, but that’s probably nowhere close to how it’ll look in the final product. Also THE HODAN MENTION MADE ME LEGIT POG

@Toma_ 9 месяцев назад

I don't just own one. I own TWO. The box has a complete set, and the one on the shelf is slightly damaged and is missing some pieces. The CSS and HUD are purely temporary. Almost nothing is final.

@DoktorSES 8 месяцев назад

Do you know if any of the characters added in the workshop pack be returning?

@Toma_ 8 месяцев назад

I believe Dan has mentioned that the goal is to get every character in Rivals1 into Rivals2 post-launch (excluding the guests). So even though most won't be there at launch, the hope is that they'll all get there eventually as long as there's enough interest in the game and enough funding. On that note, I believe the WS4 (oly, pomme, hodan, mollo) are all considered just as important as the rest of the base cast.

@Iluvgamin62 9 месяцев назад

Seconding this. As someone who loves/mains Olympia I am really curious if she is gonna be back. I really hope so.

@NAME64879 9 месяцев назад

I think they say everyone but Ori and SK returning. I mean one of the stages is Hodans Dojo

@Toma_ 9 месяцев назад

It's the Dev team's intention to eventually have all the non-guest characters return. There will be about 10 characters on launch, and they will continue to add characters post-launch as long as there is interest in the game and as long as there's funding.

@windindi2834 9 месяцев назад

I heard they were adding Killer Instinct like Combo Breakers into the game. Is that a thing at all? Also where is Orcane?

@st4pps 9 месяцев назад

only when initiating a pummel after a grab and soon

@Toma_ 9 месяцев назад

As far as I know, the only "break" type thing is pressing pummel or special pummel while your opponent has you grabbed. If you press the same one, you break out of the grab. Also Orcane had a model hinted at. I'd be surprised if Orcane didn't make the launch of the game

@ntp5358 8 месяцев назад

Idk if im just dooming or something, but a lot of the changes they made for rivals2 are negative to me. Rivals had such charming 2d pixel graphics and now they changed it to the 3d graphics, which don't look bad, but don't feel the same either. I liked rivals for how fast and offense focused it was, imo not having get ups, ledges, grabs and shields made it stand out from smash a lot and just made the game feel *even more* fast paced I would love to discuss this with some who thinks otherwise to see what they see, idk its also a shame (though it is understandable) to have see ori and shovel go

@readyplayerthree3 9 месяцев назад

Why are they getting rid of drift DI?

@p0kepanda462 9 месяцев назад

The reason they added drift di in RoA because there weren't any defensive options but because there is one in R2 there isn't really a need for it anymore.

@Toma_ 9 месяцев назад

Basically what p0Ke said. There were no defensive mechanics in R1, so they compensated by allowing you to "fix" your DI with Drift DI. That being said, I still don't know how I feel about it not being in there. It was a cool mechanic of R1, but I imagine the devs though it would slow down gameplay if Neutral interacts slow down because of shields.

@stephenchandley3071 9 месяцев назад

Since you got a ....crack...at Kragg. Do you feel he is moving more toward a traditional grappler archetype than his more heavy bruiser gameplay in RoA?

@Toma_ 9 месяцев назад

I love his cargo carry as well as how his grabs feel, but I think I'd still classify him as a heavy bruiser. Kragg still feels like you can play him like Kragg. However, they may lean into making another new character a true grappler. Maybe a certain Flame Emperor...

@dave9515 9 месяцев назад

This was a really nice video. Quick question now though, are shields realyl strong or is there good counterplay beyond grabs. I have always hated good bubble shields in plat fighters because they are a get out of jail free card with avoiding pressure and make it too easy to counterplay even smart aggression. Very few platfighters do good shields imo so i wanna know if there is good stuff like shield poking, shields regenerating much slower etc. Stuff that would make shielding not too oppressive but still good. I find grab being counterplay to shielding never works out how some might think it would. Also is there OOS options as well and otehr mechanics like spotdodge cancelling. Basically just want a rundown of how shielding is in the game currently. Would also love to know whether or not edgehogging is still planned to be in the game.

@Toma_ 9 месяцев назад

So from what I could tell, shields were VERY good... while they lasted. You could do a lot of stuff out of them, but they seemed very brittle. So you can shield to tank an attack instead of parrying it, but do it too much and you're probably going to be in trouble. No shield poking from what I could tell. Instead of the bubble shield shrinking on attack, it instead cracks, so it's always full size. Also ledgehogging is still there, but doesn't seem to be an amazing strategy since there isn't a ton of i-frames.

@dave9515 9 месяцев назад

kay thanks for the response and sorry it took 8 days to read and respond. Sounds like a very interesting system. I noticed the cracking but i wasn't sure about its impact. I know its one of teh hardest things to make and balance too so from what i am hearing is its a resource which is what i honestly like to hear. I panicked hard when i heard that Rivals 2 was adding shields ngl and ledges. Guess i still have to wait to learn more about ledges but hearing ledgehoggin being there is still nice and shielding might not be too oppressive which puts me at ease more. I really liked rivals 1 and i wanted to be hyped about 2 so this helps a lot. Still sad Ori will be gone personally as i really enjoy playing as Ori and Hodan in Rivals 1 and of course the character workshop is just mad casual fun.@@Toma_

still has hitfall lag (no whiff shffls) more pressure & punishing no drift DI no repeated ledge invulnerability parry more startup lag these things push me so far away ugh, was hoping they made Rivals 2 *more* accessible not less; only playing PM, CMC, & whiff turbo workshop on 1 until someone makes that mod for 2 - FOrce

@Toma_ 9 месяцев назад

@@oldrego Depends on how powerful of an option it is. I really like RoA's offstage game, so I really don't want it to boil down to "Just ledge hog lmao"

@oldrego 9 месяцев назад

@@Toma_ Making sure that ledge regrabs don't give i-frames will do a lot to prevent it. Brawl also had a system where performing an action off ledge doesn't hog it (such as ledge rolls, ledge attacks, etc.) which made ledge hogging much more risky, but still rewarding if properly timed (unlike melee, where you can wait then roll). Project M and P+ keep this system as well, which I definitely like, especially when recoveries can punish ledge-hoggers if they mistimed their ledge-grab. Here's to hoping that they implement that.
