We never knew how good we had it with Starfox Assault on GCN.
>>738535284Ehh, I still think they look kind of retarded here. Skinny tall zesty Falco is cool I guess. I still think Melee and Brawl did them best.
>>738535284haha ass...
The single good thing about Nintendo being unwilling and unable to make anything other than StarFox 64 over and over is the fact that Krystal will never EVER be canon
>>738535284it was very mid, you had to be a gamecube only kid to enjoy it
>>738535284As fun as MP was, I didn't enjoy that many of the on-foot missions.
>>738536658What is it about Krystal that draws such ire, she is completely inoffensive character wise.
>>738536937starfox adventures is a polarizing game.
>>738537306Okay but that should be because the game is ass, not because of Krystal.
>>738536937Furries can get really annoying. Her fans are hated, so anything that is against her is against them.
>>738536937Furfags hate things that appeal to heterosexuals.
>>738536937She's just a shameless fanservice character who's special skill is telepathy which is a tired power for female characters to have and was meant for Dinosaur Planet and female characters like Miyu, Fay, and Katt were already in the series.
>>738539041Katt sure, but Miyu and Fay aren't canon
>>738535284>how good we had it with Starfox Assault on GCNThe sad part is that SF Assault was incredibly average back then. Games have just gotten so bad that old mediocre games are comparatively good now.
>>738535284The creation of this blue dog has had disastrous consequences for mankind
>>738535284>We never knew how good we had it with Starfox Assault on GCN.why did they nerf Krystal's fan service?
It doesn’t matter how many demakes of SF64 Nintendo releases. Assault will never be good.
>>738539237Technically they are now that Star Fox 2 had an official release, but like with Star Wolf's first appearance in that game they could've put them in other games a long time ago.
>>738535284Assault was dog shit.
I was rewatching some boss fights in Assault the other night and thought "hey, these are pretty cool." Maybe Namco designed them - General Pepper's mech fight seems like something too fun and interesting for Nintendo to come up with - clearly because they're remaking 64 again lol
>>738535284that game was very mediocre
>>738536937Its faggots who write fan fics about wolf buttfucking fox. Krystal is in the way of that.It could also be weirdos like Daniel “The Panda” Moore who hates Amy in Sonic and flips out at the mere mention of “sonamy”
>>738539525I would argue they are back to being non canon with the remake being exactly like 64.
>>738539784Aren't 65% of Command's endings about Krystal cucking Fox? loool
>>738539931Whoever wrote that game clearly hated her, its hilarious.
Starfox has been dead for 20 years. Every game after 64 was shit.
>>738539931Command is basically “Return to Monkey Island” where its a retarded hack who worked on the first game with an axe to grind over the direction of “his series.”Its also only two endings, iirc. There are just as many where Fox and Krystal get back together.
>>738535284:::sip:::Yup, those were the good ol days.
>>738536937
>>738536937Do you remember when Tears of the Kingdom released and shortly afterwards people discovered that Sidon now has a fiancée? That was a female Zora? Same energy as that. Basically it is gay furries and fujofags having meltdowns that Sidon isnt a fag for Link, and vice versa. Now Imagine those same audiences doing the same thing with Fox and Wolf and/or Falco for years longer than Zelda did. That's where a lot of Krystal hate stems from.
>>738539809They continue to not use them, but they also continue to not use Krystal either because they keep making remakes and reboots of Star Fox SNES/64, but the point is that they exist as characters and could've been using them at any time and didn't have to be using Krystal except they needed her for cheap fanservice and relationship drama.
>>738535284I always liked Assault and wished they kept going in that direction. Was it flawless? Fuck no, but it had a lot of potential.
>>738539631I remember the last boss being pretty good too. Honestly the game had a lot of cool ideas, pushed the story in a good direction, and the flying levels were actually great. If it had just been flying missions the whole game, it might have been on par with 64. It really is only held back by the on foot gameplay. And I don't even think Fox going on foot was a bad idea, it fits the character imo. After Smash everybody wanted to run around and shoot laser guns as Fox, come on. The shooter gameplay was just underbaked and mediocre relative to its contemporaries, and those missions had really shitty objectives that slowed down the pace of the game. I wish they hadn't given up on the idea entirely.
>>738541209Krystal got the highest treatment of a series character in Smash Ultimate that WASN’T just outright making her a fighter. Nintendo still considers her canon and a popular fan favorite. If you’re one of those absolute morons that does double-digit IQ mental gymnastics to explain why she “isn’t canon anymore” but your literally who dog and cat fapbait are, then you are absolutely beyond reasoning with. Just name any superficial reason you don’t like Krystal specifically and leave it at that. It’s so much easier than being a retarded hypocrite.
>>738542296Doesn't Krystal have voice lines on the Star Fox themed stage in if you do the secret easter egg there? She is totally canon.
We need a dinosaur Planet remake where Sabre dies halfway through and Fox swoops in to finish what he started
>>738535284Loved the stylish aesthetic of this game with its sleek art direction and music. I liked the ground missions' freedom to go after the objectives in any order you want, and the combo meter was a good evolution of 64's score system. Plenty of room for improvement, of course, namely a return to 64's branching route system instead of a linear list of levels, online for the multiplayer, etc, but that's what sequels are supposed to be for.
>>738542442Yeah she's had voicelines for the taunt easter egg on Lylat Cruiser since Brawl.
>>738536937I could just say gays/fujos and be done with it, but honestly I think a lot of dislike for her stems from a simple correlation = causation mindset. Some people see that the later games they disliked, which sold less than 64, prominently featured a new addition to the cast. It's a similar attitude expressed by really old-school Sonic fans towards characters like Shadow. The fact that Krystal is female and paired with Fox adds more fuel to the fire by upsetting the gay/fujo shipping contingent.
>>738546347I'd rather say she's a lot more like Amy than Shadow>first prominent female character>introduced a little later after the series's peak in terms of popularity>love interest to the MC>visually standout design>and was around when fans felt the games were losing steamBut other than that yeah. It is very easy to draw similarities when those two feel like they 'ruined' their series, for superficial reasons. And in the case for Krystal, the irony is that she hasn't been in any star fox games for 20 years now, and yet the star fox games coming out still flop. Zero should have been the wake up call to anyone saying she 'killed' star fox, but some people will never admit they were wrong.
