    I think the "World of Light" trailer really proves your point. Aside from Kirby being Sakurai's baby, I believe he was chosen to be playable first because of the simplicity and accessibility of the character like you mentioned.

    • @angeldude101
      @angeldude101 Před 5 lety +62

      That's also part of why he's one of the first playable characters in the Subspace Emissary, and why he's the only character you start with for the Great Maze.

    • @redsplat6606
      @redsplat6606 Před 5 lety +21

      @@tumbletunes3101 That was part of the reason. Sakurai also stated Palutena could've escaped Galeem's attack, but ultimately chose not to because of "power scaling."
      In a game design perspective, Kirby is a wayyyyy better choice for a starter character than Palutena. She is too technical for new players to learn the basics of the game.

      So vore is a fetish, it's actually called "vorephillia". Vorephillia is a kink where people gets turned on by fantasising about eating someone or being eaten by someone.
      Vore could be kinda a collection of fetishes to say it like that, as many people enjoy mixing fetishes together.
      When I was searching it up to find out what it was, I saw a link with name "Gay furry foot fetish vore", I mean, thats three fetishes in one link!
      So yeah, you see why I didn't want to tell you know? If your brave you can search it up, but be prepared for something that will truly terrify you.

  • @Flygoniaks
    @Flygoniaks Před 7 lety +29

    A few things you missed:
    1:Kirby`s throws also follow the directional rule, but do so with such extravagance to emphasize said rule.
    2:The reason his side special is a powerful but slow and risky hammer is to help show that, for many characters, side specials are very powerful moves that could make you vulnerable if used in the wrong place. This lack of spamming was emphasized further with the recoil damage.
    3:Kirby`s copy ability means that he is actually one of the harder characters to master, as you have to have knowledge of every other character`s neutral special and be able to improvise combos with said special. Just like his games, he is easy to learn, but hard to master.

    Kirby's portrayal in Smash is perfect because he's simple yet very fun to play, like his games. And the hanmer upgrade in Sm4sh made him a genuine scary opponent, truth be told.
    Sakurai was like: "Kirby? Buff his hammer! Dedede? Buff his side-b by making him only throw Gordos!
    Meta Knight? Nah, debuff him, he was OP in Brawl, especially his recovery."

    This is such an interesting video to go back to now that Sakurai has his own CZcams channel where he delves into design and his own philosophies on gaming. Watching him speak on how he went about making the first and second Kirby games, I was very much reminded of you talking about the exact same thing here. Making games for people who have never even touched a controller before while at the same time keeping things interesting for veteran gamers, it almost felt like he was the one who took inspiration from you! I think that just goes to show how well made and well researched this video was, that you can speak on his ideas at a similar level to him.

    This was probably your best video. As someone who always played Kirby back in 1999 and onward (I main other characters now), you really showed how Kirby is really a well-designed character and explored Sakurai's game philosophy. I really think this probably explained why I found Kirby so appealing to play as a kid. Great job.

      I think he should be able to inhale projectiles and shoot them back as stars.

      If his f-air were the air gun, I can just imagine people doing it by accident and falling to their deaths. As for spitting out or copying projectiles people throw at you, I would really like that! It would be make Kirby a more unique character. It would also be a nice option, and I imagine it would be too slow to make it OP. I'm pretty sure the only reason he can't do that is probably for balance purposes; enough people hate Kirby already, and him having such an easy way to copy/nullify projectiles would make people more annoyed.

    It's funny how the Kirby shirt is a sly nod to the anime when Kirby hold a chocolate bar in the same pose and holds it horizontally!

    When he said it was a commercial break, an actual commercial happened right after.

    OMG I would always play with Kirby on Smash because he was easy with me and I sucked at playing, then watching this video, I realized. I am so impressed! Good Job.
