@@R0-83-RT considering it's the same guy who has admitted countless times that he dislikes the Pokemon franchise I'm pretty much used to his wrong opinions

COUNTERPOINT: Ridley's major defining characteristic is NOT being big, it's being terrifying. While being big helps with that, his Ultimate depiction pulls it off regardless.
Basically a friend said 'make a sequel to the ridley debate' and I said 'okay.' PLEASE LIKE THE VIDEO! It really helps me out since I've been away, the algorithm will bury me 😕🥵😤🤡
I don't get it. This is like some kind of parody, but it's not even that funny. Was there a point to this video? Is it just meant to get the fanboys upset?
@@TheRealBatabii Agreed, this feels like a video that Alax made for himself to make fun of his first (well, second I guess) video. There's not really much to get out of this video.
I can't tell if this is serious or the biggest troll move of all time. Either way, the timing with Metroid Prime Remastered is definitely... something.
3:23 This was always my argument for why Arthur and Viewtiful Joe shouldn't be so short in MvC. Because neither one of them is actually short. Their art style just makes them look that way. Within their own universes, they are the same size as any other regular person, and as such, they should be normal sized in MvC as well.
I’m insanely glad you’re back man, I was just rewatching your videos last week and was legit bummed out when I ran out of ones to watch. I’m glad that your pacing yourself with your uploads and still find joy in creating! Great work and thanks for coming back
Genuinely missed you. You've been my favorite CZcamsr for the last handful of years. What I'm gonna need from you next is evaluating whether or not the characters in Sonic's universe have actual toes on their feet, or if they're toeless nubs :)
Same, I randomly watch one if his videos yesterday, and saw a comment saying he stopped making videos to pursue video game development. The next day he's back
The song "New Soup", this video and the ending fits so perfectly in what you did! You returned into making videos, so, this is kinda old, but with new twists; so, the new soup. You're a very talented man, and I'll always love giving my time to you to watch your videos. Your point was so clear, and yet full of your amazing jokes and right timing... Never saw a single video of yours that didn't make me smile! :D Thank you!
Ridley is my favorite character in Smash Ultimate. Perhaps the opening of Smash Melee depicting that sick standoff between Samus and Ridley planted a seed which over time convinced a lot of people they wanted him in. Welcome back!
Yes, I agree that even from the moment that Ridley was announced, that I realised “ah, so they did have to shrink the purple raptor” But his reveal is hype, was one of the core four “vocally wanted” characters (Ridley, King K Rool, Issac, and Geno), and he play style fits his animalistic ruthlessness. Speaking of “vocally wanted” characters, it’s good to see that at least half of them got into Ultimate at launch, but after Ultimate’s release, the “vocally wanted” list changed to Waluigi being top priority with Geno being second priority (which just makes Piranha Plant getting added as DLC instead even funnier)
I’m not saying Isaac isn’t highly requested, but he isn’t on the tier of Ridley, K rool and Geno, the fourth character on that list should definitely be Banjo, definitely had a stronger grip on smash speculation than Isaac could have ever hoped to reach
@@tekwizwa ok, that’s definitely interesting because before Ultimate launched I kept seeing people wanting Isaac in smash but barely anyone wanting Banjo. Do if you’re correct (and I do think you’re correct) then that means that three of the top four wanted characters got into Smash Ultimate, which is good to hear.
4:36 It's funny that you say that, because there's actually a Shrek fighting game on the GBC where you can play as the dragon. And the dragon is scaled down too.
Me, a relatively new Metroid fan: I can't wait to watch a new alax post in over a year! I wonder what fun topic he will talk about! *proceeds to die inside with the nonsensical hot takes* great video
I get nostalgic thinking about your very first videos and how I was a Sm4sh obsessed child just looking for content to feed into my obsession. hearing that was 9 years ago hit me like a hype train HOLY HELL.
I feel like I'm being gaslit here. I became an Alax fan and a Ridley stan because of his old video; Ridley was the reason I dipped my toes into Metroid and loved it! And now I'm being told that the foundation of which I've built my Smash/Metroid hobbies has been invalid this whole time?! I'm convinced I'm about to go into my own Joker arc.
I love how all of the comments somehow agreed that we weren't supposed to take this video seriously lmao, I was sure there'd be tons who were foaming at the mouth hearing this.
Glad you're back Alax. This video is like that one clip of you saying "I have a lot of bad opinions, I wear them on my sleeve" but turned into a video, I love it. It does kinda contradict things you've said before though (ie: "Sakurai added Ridley because the fans wanted him" - Ridley Know Your Moves), but I guess that's the point lol. The audio in this vid is very quiet compared to other youtube vids btw.
Really good to see you back. Missed your style and your charm. Been with you since the very beginning and loved every minute of it. Keep up the great work, my man.
Albert here comes swinging out of the gate with an incredibly controversial first video after almost a year. I respect that so much Allen. Letting people know that “ChillOutMaurice is back and he’s coming out swinging!” Loved the video Lorenza. So good to have you back
you literally showed ridley from the first metroid game in this video, how can you say he is too big, I feel like this is a joke but there bits that feel serious in it and I'm just so confused
I'm more than a little amused hat Alax comes back with this big swing of a video calling Metroid as a series dumb several times when just yesterday the Prime one remake was announced and launched.
I'm so glad to see that you're back, I noticed the channel had dipped for a while and I thought I wouldn't get to see anymore content. Happy to see you're back
First official video back and you start off by throwing haymakers at Metroid... Definitely a bold choice. As a newer fan of Metroid I don't know how to feel. XD
@@orangeslash1667 Do you honestly think there's any kind of objectivity in his take? Whether or not he was bored by the games, it's his experience. You can't write off his experience of boredom as "it's not boring" lmao.
It started with some pretty legit points and gradually descended into madness until at the end it surfaced again with some lucid thoughts about the hype industry Overall pretty enjoyable thanks to the humor and editing
this video feels like alax had a friend who played a mean ridley and then got pissed and then made this video. good video keep it up 👍
The lack of characterization in metroid rant made me feel that he got charge shot camped one too many times lol
I dont like that this is the hearted comment
@@kitsinthewebs222 maybe i was right lmao
He hearted the comment. It's canon now.
@@Sgt-Wolf canondorf
Alax returns and admitted that he despises the Metroid Franchise. Love this man.
No
that's exactly what happened lol. take my like 😂😂😂
What analyzing Samus in Smash does to a mf
Ngl same
I do think that Metroid is a pretty bottom of the barrel franchise.
He came back when the world needed him most and immediately made an enemy out of the Metroid fandom and I have no choice but to respect the gall
Nah, even as a Metroid fan I appreciate his past services to Ridley too much to hold this against him.

I don't think I have ever disagreed with a massive incoherent hot take like this in my entire life
Good to have you back Alan.
God, I missed Alax’s silly and whimsical editing style. So glad he’s back!!!
I hear that.
I was going to comment this exact thing! I absolutely love his style.
I just need to see Monika again :>
@@BassRukarioGuerrero I do too man.
Vannamelon's Monika has been able to keep me going when Alax vanished but his depiction of her is just as awesome.
COUNTERPOINT: Ridley's major defining characteristic is NOT being big, it's being terrifying. While being big helps with that, his Ultimate depiction pulls it off regardless.
Ridley's up taunt is LITERALLY just him standing to his full height lmao.

This whole video is an enigma, it feels like an inside joke but I can’t pinpoint when he’s being sincere and when he’s not.
Great start so far.
That’s are boy Alax
I'm pretty convinced this is a joke, mainly because of the end.
I think it’s a joke because he said “I’m right your wrong” rather than “I’m right you’re wrong.”
Average dunkey videos
Man, these AI Videos are getting insane. I almost thought he actually believed Ridley got in Smash! Great content as always, RelaxingAlax.
Is this some kinda joke? I don't get it
@@therealestcupheadonyt I mean it’s not really clever, just really sarcastic
The section on the Metroid franchise feels like the “How can you read this, there’s no pictures?” of video games

Viewtiful Joe with a normal size sounds extremely cursed to me.
Yeahhhhhh. I'm glad he's short in mvc3 lol
@@Klonoahedgehog Hilariously, Viewtiful Joe should be as tall as Dante at least, but I agree - his entire artstyle would need to change
@@Klonoahedgehog Objection, there was a Viewtiful Joe costume in SFV and that looked fine, and Arthur was normal sized in Project X Zone.
@@griefingg0lem685The Joe costume still looks weird in SF5. They need to shrunk down the head a bit

Can't believe it's been a year and he immediately decided to throw hands
I was sitting through the entire thing and saying in my head "where's he going with this?"
i miss your style of content so much. It's always so well edited and genuinely funny. Glad to have you back
"...Did you really sit through all this?"
Yes Alax. Yes I did. Because I missed your style of comedic humor so much.
Welcome back dude!
Alax "...And that is why Ridley is too big for smash"
"Sir this is a wendys"
This video becomes exponentially harder to tell if it's a joke or not every single second.
I love you Alax, I can finally relax
Genuinely missed you. You've been my favorite CZcamsr for the last handful of years.
What I'm gonna need from you next is evaluating whether or not the characters in Sonic's universe have actual toes on their feet, or if they're toeless nubs :)
How did you get my schedule?!
Hwut da hell? I saw homie’s channel be blacked out yesterday and thought he was done for good and then the next day HE’S BACK
Same, I randomly watch one if his videos yesterday, and saw a comment saying he stopped making videos to pursue video game development. The next day he's back
He did make a video yesterday about returning.
"You guys really want the dragon from shrek?"
