>>539046790never took fluff for a master debater.
>>539047092I can't remember where i downloaded that image but i think its him doing royal duties? Although i can imagine he would good at arguing/being a politician.
>>539047248If I remember, the original context was Fluff reacting to Taranza masturbating right in front of him
>>539047906Oh yeah how could i forget.
>>539047906https://arch.b4k.dev/vg/thread/488198651/#q488273286
>>539047248look, I need to know the magic socks tax policy.
>>539048414There will be a 100% tariff placed on the price of fabric imports through the magic sock, failure to comply with result in someone sticking their foot in it instead.
can we please keep shipfaggotry to a minimum in this thread?
>>539048248>we've only had 43 threads in the last 13 and a half months
>>539048637yin-yarn did nothing wrong then.
>>5390487483 threads per month isn't half bad.
>>539048748we are a slower general>>539048870it is pretty alright, I think that's more reasonable then some of the other generals honestly.
>>539048810Yin-yarn started the dreamland waddle dee slave trade and started to try to take over king dedede's castle, these new policies are merely to kick start patch lands recovery from the yin-yarn regime and the lack of free waddle dee labour.
Will prince fluff file for divorce since Kirby hasn't come back yet?
SECOND DIRECT KAM ON SAKURAI GIVE HIM TO ME
>>539048638how about...frenship
>>539049882Now it also means he gets in as a machine he gets an amiibo too, so if that happens whatever double pack hes in is like two characters really instead of one.
>>539049980 which member of the halberd crew would be the rider?
>>539050337Captain vul would be the most fitting but idk he would get in, maybe if theres alt costumes theres a "player 2" one for sailor waddle dee he would also fit. I don't see any others getting in but thats just me.
>>539049882https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g7_I6kj9fTc&ab_channel=ukery
>>539050337Meta Knight's hands are so tiny here
>>538936817>Will they do one for Dargoon though? Would it be a 3 piece set or just one big one and who would it come with?bruh imagine they start selling amiibo packs with a character, a machine, and a single legendary machine part like pic related, 75 bucks each cause fuck itand the amiibo will only work if all 3 of its parts are assembled correctly, meaning you'd need to spend at least $225 for the whole thing
>>539054520Call me ash ketchem cause I'm gonna catch em all
>>539052941inconsistent sprite work.
>>539050337vul as a rider would be fucking sick
air riders is the only thing tempting me to buy a switch
>>539057641 it's not on the switch sire it's on tthe switch ii
>>539057694
Anyone collect the Re-ment figures?
>>539058406Rement figures for ants?
>>539058406no but those do look cool, I'm kinda running low on space as it is.
>>539058718i wonder how heavy the feathers would get while absorbing water
>>539058532You think that's bad? The stickers on this one were so hard to do that I wound up peeling the side of the screen one because I stuck it wrong.
>>539059397nta but i think he was referring to the size of the image
>>539059397yeah that's why I don't fuck with any "build your own" type toys outside of maybe nendo's since those are pretty simple, I always fuck stuff up.
>>539058406Shipment to where I live is awful but I'd like the Pop Star and Nova ones, look very nice
>>539059598I want to eat Waddle Dee food so bad…
you knowon one hand i like the stars' gimmicks for what they are (e.g. slick's lack of grip, swerve's lack of turning, wagon's lack of charge, bulk's gas tank) but i kinda wish there were more vehicles that fit into the standard kart archetypes without any extra catchesmaybe riders could do something like pic related where we could tune the machines using parts
>>539074641If theres trainable amiibos i think its likely we get a customization mode like smash 4, although it might be limited to just vs mode. But then again the story mode might feature one like in brawl ult and kid icarus.
>>539082950we could get ultimate like spirit training maybe, that mysterious currency has to be for something.
>>539084593I hope its more like smash 4 instead of ultimate, felt like you couldn't customize as much in a specific area with spirits but with equipment you could specialize how you want with crazy modifiers too.used to be so fun having insanely lopsided stats, would be fun to play diesel star with like an absurd top speed or the paper star with insane gliding stats or something like that.
>>539084936making machines bad intentionally will be the meta, trust.

>>539094626any ado and ddd content just reminds me of that series where shes grown up and the creator obviously just wants to fuck her
I have never played the original Air Ride. Should I?
>>539114376it's worth emulating at least
The first air riders direct was going over stuff that changed from the first game like core mechanics, modes and how characters work, i think the next direct will go over all the fully new stuff that wasn't in the original air riders like the story mode. And show off more characters/machines obviously
When do you think is the next mainline game
>>539116472Hopefully soon. Four years is a little silly for games as short and simple as Kirby.
>>539116472>>539116823There was a 4 year gap between star allies and forgotten land, but that was for the transition to 3d.Next year for at least the announcement but they might release another side game next year if the main game releases in two years though.
>>539116823I’m hoping the next mainline game after this one doesn’t take as long, like maybe a new 2d game, it’ll have been a decade since the last one in 2028
>>5391171362027 is at least gonna be a good year, unlike mario, kirby usually has good anniversaries
>>539117297Id like another 2d side game that uses the engine and reuses assets in new ways but i'd want the next main game to be 3d to keep fleshing its gameplay out.>>539117495They might save it for an anniversary game, maybe revisit old places and characters in 3d? Id like that alot.
>>539117653faster
>>539125575
I know the new world is meant to be a abandoned earth and imply the ancients where like humans which creates a mystery surrounding adeleine, but whats stopping them from looking like ayylmaos?
>>539133082nothing, and thats the more interesting prospect
The New World civilization aren't humans and they also aren't the ancients.
>>539138310Isn't it heavily implicated that they are? or at least related in some way?
SyAdo bros... how are we feelin? I can't believe my nigga Sylux is going to finally be back. I hope his daughter makes it too.
>>539138310the lore would say otherwise.
oh the word "fashion" appears on the amiibo screen so costumes confirmed?
>>539142313Got a picture? it might just be the colour picker and only a few characters get an actual different costume.
>>539142521seems like it might be clothes given the picture.
>>539143685Looks like the same option from the character selection screen so i think it might just be the same as colour alts.
>>539138310Eh, I say it goes either way. Personally, I don't think it's going to be humans. Seems too cliche.
>>539143919you say that but why would the button be separate from the colors that are set to L and R? having a dedicated button feels like there's going to be more to it.
>>539143919That image implies the exact opposite. L and R cycle through colors, while X is the Fashion button. The demo only only has colors.I'm guessing these are masks/hats that can be worn by any character.
>>539144729>>539144797I figured it would be like smash ult, you can cycle colours with l and r but if you click on the character portrait it goes into a different selection mode, but yeah maybe that doesn't make much sense.Did anyone press it during the in-person demo that was available?
>>539144797Man i hope so, the RTDL deluxe masks should be a kirby mainstay.
>>539143919>>539143685If we do get unlockable fashion items to wear, what do you think they'll be, what would you want? Do you think they'll apply to everyone or there'll be specific fashions for specific characters?
>>539140786into metroid? i hope not. she would not survive
>>539145068Honestly i have no idea how it would work? like it cant be hats because copy abilities use hats, cant be character specific design changes because meta knight has those kinds of changes on his dmk and galacta knight alts. I actually cant think what would qualify.
>>539145274>meta knight has those kinds of changes on his dmk and galacta knight altsAnd the masks actually have unique models this time.
>>539146393Which pisses me off, dark meta knight is like 2 changes away from just being his own character.change the wings and sword and hes done, like an echo fighter.
>>539145068it'll probably be specific stuff.>>539145274maybe it'll be like Mario kart?>>539146393that'd be a good idea
>>539145176Why not? Adeleine can survive just fine in different planets and it's good at fighting.
>>539146661If its full costume changes then that would cool, not sure how much you could do for most characters, like the common mooks in mario kart don't have costumes.But I want this meta knight.
>>539146940with air riders having a smaller roster I could see more costumes.
>>539146661>susie in a kimonoi always pictured susie as being vaguely western
>>539148068There's no way the roster will be this small.
>>539148340I know people joke about her being a white woman but I think that's what they were actually going for.
>>539148489Its gonna fill out but maybe not to mario kart levels.Maybe the costumes might be hats that then get replaced when you get a copy ability? But I could see that being annoying if you think they have an ability when they don't because of a costume.
>>539148696>Mario Kart comparisonOk, that's not exactly a fair threshold. I expect the roster to be better, not bloated.
At most, the roster will be Star Allies plus some more enemies.
>>539149257Starman and Cappy already gives Mario Kart world roster vibes for Kirby air riders.
>>539148696>Its gonna fill out but maybe not to mario kart levels.i mean a roster the size of pic related would still be fantasticthe most abilities a kirby game has ever had is around 28, so i think that's a good place to estimate the KAR2 roster size
What are the implications for Elfilis having a larger older brother with an even longer name? Also why does every fucking evil being in Kirby eventually become a swirling sphere with one eye? Is Dark Matter the equivalent of the crab, does all evil eyeballify like some creatures undergo carcinization?
>>539149656The implications are that elfilis can reproduce and there are females elfilies's elfili? that we need to see.I think technically most villains dont become spheres and even less are spheres without being a "soul" or "chaos". aren't zero and dark mind the only two that aren't like that?
>>539150229Sphere is simply the most efficient body shape for evil delivery anon. Maximum satisfaction guaranteed.
>>539149379>an enemy who's been in almost every game>a recurring ability-granting enemy in a series where half of those have been playable at least once>Para-Biddybud>a snowman>the cow from two racetracks, and it doesn't even have its real nameThis is not even remotely the same.
>>539149656>does all evil eyeballify like some creatures undergo carcinizationThey do not unless the eye doubles as a smile like crowned Magolor and Voidbut I do recall hearing Void motif in the final boss
>>539150758>WAAAAAAAAAAAH my heckin Starmanerino is le good because my based Sakurai said so!!! Cow is bad though.
>>539152145>but I do recall hearing Void motif in the final bossMakes sense, since his core has the Void swirls.
>>539152720If Starman were already a helper, would you be having this reaction?
>>539152749I feel like the choice of motif's they used was very intentional, like blow out blast's version of dreamland's credit scene is oddly specificyou can hear quite few motif's throughout it
it really does bother me how a solid number of events in the city are either complete nothingburgers or explicit nuisances, e.g. tac challenge, item bounce, rowdy charge tank, air ride formation, and fake powerups, as opposed other events that have actual advantages to be exploitedhopefully riders gives us some events that are actually interesting
>>539167698We've already seen Dustup Derbies and Short Races, so here's hoping we get some more interesting events like those.
>>539168658don't forget gourmet race.
>>539171714No, Gourmet Race is a stadium, not a City Trial event
>the metroid bike amiibo isn't compatible with air riders.
I have come up with a somewhat schizo theory. I think part of the story regarding Fecto is fake and is actually revisionist history driven by cope, and he had a way bigger impact to the world and story than what is apparent.From the figure description about the meteors it is now known that what we see in the game is the only remaining habitable land in the planet, and the rest somehow sunk.What I think happened: Fecto actually managed to wreck most of the planet, probably both by arriving in a meteor with a massive crash and then personally attacked and razed the rest. The fake part of the story is that Fecto was defeated and contained and then Elfilin was created later. Actually Fecto was in course to destroy all life until Elfilin somehow grew powerful enough to separate on his own, which left him in a weakened state which is how his capture was possible. The fake story was created to cope with the fact most of life on the planet has been killed off with no way to recover since the land itself has also disappeared, and a way to control the narrative was needed. It's confirmed that Wondaria was created as a huge cope-fest propaganda machine so we know this civilization is willing to lie to itself. Also the reason why the planet was abandoned was not because they figured they would just find something better just by leaving, but because Fecto's attack destroyed the economy and food production, and they were going to go nearly extinct and regress to the stone ages if they didn't leave.
>>539175918Furthermore we know that Fecto has powerful brainwashing powers and can control others with ease if they are in near contact with him. He was probably pulling the strings all along behind the scenes, controlling the actions of political leaders and guided everyone to leave so that he could have the planet to himself and recover Elfilin with ease. It doesn't make sense that he just laid there defenseless when he could brainwash people and cause havoc with portals even in his weakened state, so maybe he was actually directing and allowing things to happen as he saw fit.Maybe he even set up the guided tour so that he could brainwash more people. Perhaps getting caught was part of his plan to begin with. Fecto mentions he had a plan that Kirby derailed, maybe his plan extended way farther into the past than expected.Which also kinda explains why Genwel showed up only just now even when Fecto had been trapped for at least decades; Fecto was actually winning up until Kirby defeated Leongar.So, assuming this is true, could it affect the story in a relevant way? Both Elfilis brothers are somewhat alive, with part of Fecto's essence surviving inside Elfilin, and Genwel just being sealed, so maybe we will see more of their story and motivations at some point. As for why the planet is so important that it is worth invading twice, even after it got mostly emptied, maybe there is some sort of secret hidden within it that we haven't seen yet, and what the brothers were truly after.
>>539176208>literally flashes himself to his opponents in publicIndecent warrior..
https://wikirby.com/wiki/Adeleine#cite_note-2>Welcome Adeleine & Ribbon back from "Kirby 64"! Sorry, up until now we went on a trip a bit far-off... but, my paintings have gotten even better, and I've come back with Ribbon. So, let us join, too!Did Adeleine suddenly disappear to further her art studies? She was originally on Popstar to do that, but the way she feels sorry about it sounds like she's come to think of Dream Land as her home.
Having a look at the songs the Waddles have after completing the Star-Crossed World dlc, "Panspermia, Caller of Ruin." Is a very interesting title, considering panspermia is the theoretical basis that posits life all comes from an ancestral extraterrestrial entity crashing into the planet. The song two spots after it, Genwel's theme, The Falling Star Pierces Through the Lagrange Point (a point of orbital equilibrium between two massive astral bodies) and the hyphenated "Sing of Radiant Theia" (the proposed planet that crashes into earth to eventually break off the Moon.Is, uh, is Elfilis some form of ancestor creature? Was humanity born of a similar asteroid?
>>539182185Actually, was Forgo dormant all the while? Maybe he didn't crash into the Planet and wipe them out, maybe he was sealed inside the asteroid that brought life to it.
>>539182185It's... Interesting. I honestly somewhat wonder if it's referring to the Starries rather than Meteon, seeing as their presence somewhat "foretells" ruin in the form of whatthey're sealing. It's hard to know how much of the song titles is meant as lore drops and how much is just for flare... Elfilis is very explicitly described as an "invasive species" so I doubt he's supposed to be an ancestor, same with the "invasive" label being extended to Meteon in the description of the 2 together. It's one of the things I'm genuinely somewhat stumped by...>>539182614That is interesting, and now I'm contemplating that the "Gen" in "Genwel" could not just mean "Gene", but also "Genesis". Fuck. However, I don't think Elfilis was just dormant since the Dream Discoveries Tour specifies that "From the moment ID-F86 arrived on our planet,it began a campaign of destructionthat threatened the native wildlife of our entire world. ", I think the description including his arrival means he landed there after humanity was already established, so I doubt he was just dormant somewhere if they explicitly saw his arrival...
>>539182901>That is interesting, and now I'm contemplating that the "Gen" in "Genwel" could not just mean "Gene", but also "Genesis"It very explicitly does, anon. His Italian name is Gemmesis (pun on Gemma, Italian for Gem, and Genesis.)>Dream Discoveries TourThat's true, but they could just be propagandizing ala Evangelion's 2nd Impact, where they freed it accidentally and it fucked up the entire world before they could seal it back up and use it for whatever they used it for.
>>539168658>Dustup Derbies and Short Racesthose are okay in that they gather players together in a way that makes things exciting, but they're still not particularly extravagant in the same way as, say, dyna blade or meteors arei want something that actually affects the environment itself, something to which the players need to adapt and be rewarded in turn for doing so skillfully
>>539183335>His Italian name is Gemmesis (pun on Gemma, Italian for Gem, and Genesis.)I'll admit I was going off Spanish where it's "Genejoya", which very much read to me like just gluing "gene" and "jewel" together.>could just be propagandizing ala Evangelion's 2nd ImpactI guess? But I'm not quite sure that'd be the case though... The characterization of the ancients perplexes me since from interviews I always feel like they kind of frame them as "non-malicious" and moreso just having too much power that they leave unchecked. Even beyond the idea of DDT being propaganda though, I still feel like everything leaning so much on the brothers being specifically invasive is meant to make it clear that they're not by any means "native" to the Forgotten Land...
>>539067942I don't have the Pop Star one. My sister has the moon one.>>539103439Kirby Guardian? ...They draw her pudgy too.>>539117495I just might not pre-order the Galaxy collection. I got All-Stars and this new one is $70.>>539133082For all we know they looked like the Mage Sisters.>>539143685Give me a Genwel alt for Elfilin. A Neichel hat would be nice too. >>539149656The sphere is their true form. They change form from absorbing other creatures. >>539152749They were probably born from Void.>>539175918Given the fact the entire northern continent cannot sustain life at all, that may have contributed to the population problem. Fecto completely wrecked the balance of nature.>>539176031We do know Fecto was drawn to the planet by Neichel's song "TWINKLING STAR SHOWERS", but what I don't understand is why it was broadcasted throughout the cosmos. Were they hoping an alien would show up and take them to space, but it went horribly wrong? I think they were trying to send contact out into space in hopes of attracting some life form, but what they actually did was doom their world. I'm ready to theorize again.Do you think Wondaria had a dream that inspired them to make a book about dogs that go to space, and why do you think Neichel had her prophetic dream?
>>539183827Ok I rescind my Evangelion 2nd Impact theory. I think I got it. Much like his big bro Genwel, Fecto has a theme referencing astral gravitation, "Two Planets Approach the Roche Limit." Which is, and fucking check this out>the Roche limit, also called Roche radius, is the distance from a celestial body within which a second celestial body, held together only by its own force of gravityYou're 100% right. This is (I think) a metaphorical name to imply that the ancients or whoever the inhabitants of the planets were, made massive mistakes in trying to handle Fecto and that his mishandled power would've eventually led them to destruction. But, Kirby seems to be the bigger "planet" in the fight with Fecto, also his tendency to suck up things could be linked to gravity.So I do believe Fecto was definitely invasive. His chaos form's theme is"Eternal Echo of the Roche Limit." So I think the Elfilis are definitely, 100% destructive forces.
>>539184464But so is Kirby. Both created to destroy but Kirby uses his destructive powers to protect. Kinda reminds me of Mythra.
>>539185129Fecto thought he was dealing with a planet, turns out Kirby has the gravitational pull of a black hole. Can't beat the Kirb when it comes to succ power. He should've known better.
>>539185129Kirby and themes of duality are very common.
>>539185129>Kinda reminds me of Mythra.But Pneuma was made to be the breath of life. He's more like a well-intentioned Malos.
Man why does Elfilis theorizing have to pick up the one night I actually do need to sleep at a reasonable time...>>539184359>They were probably born from Void.I still autistically hold that the brothers are probably about as ancient as Void and simply playing another role in the universal food chain, Void being birth, the brothers being death, which I hold in part due to their visual contrast and the lore connections Void and Elfilis have with the ancients respectively (Elfilis allowing the ancients to go to space in the first place, and then them going on to seal Void). To add to them being parallels, I do somewhat feel like Elfilin is likely meant to be to Elfilis what Kirby is to Void in a way, between the nice personality as opposed to destructive, as well as still having access to devastating power but on a smaller scale, and used for more positive ends. As for...>We do know Fecto was drawn to the planet by Neichel's song "TWINKLING STAR SHOWERS"The fact it's Elfilin specifically who tells us that is what makes me doubt a scenario like >>539175918 , since it's as close as direct confirmation as we can get in terms of why Elfilis even came to the Forgotten Land to begin with. As for the reason they broadcast it, best I can think of is that maybe it's the Forgotten Land's equivalent of the golden disc NASA sent into space and it was Elfilis it managed to contact specifically? And things get muddied seeing as Last Song kinda feels like it implies Neichel could've known even more than she let on, seeing as she let the ancients go off to a land she said was the result of "dreams gone so wrong". The sign (restored) figure also clarifies that she was considered a prophet, which... makes stuff even more perplexing.>and why do you think Neichel had her prophetic dream?Best I can think of is maybe she was unusually attuned to Dream matter and that's why? Not sure...>>539184464For what it's worth, the track where Forgo grabs Elfilin is called "Gemini Reunion" too
>>539186025>For what it's worth, the track where Forgo grabs Elfilin is called "Gemini Reunion" too"Castor and Pollux are the two "heavenly twin" stars giving the constellation Gemini (Latin, 'the twins') its name. The stars, however, are quite different in detail. Castor is a complex sextuple system of hot, bluish-white type A stars and dim red dwarfs, while Pollux is a single, cooler yellow-orange giant."Hey wait a minute, that coloring sure reminds me of something.
Nova's objects are very astrological but the one that stands out are the piano keys, that's the only thing that doesn't seem to go with it at all but now we know music is tied to the ancients.
>>539186257>A complex sextuple system of hot, bluish-white type A stars and dim red dwarfs
>>539185305Can't curb the Kirb.>>539185516That reminds me he's apparently gonna be playable in Air Riders.>>539185995Malos has the same capacity that Mythra has.>>539186025Well destruction in and of itself is not evil. Therefore, even something born to destroy doesn't have to be evil.Apparently, the Legend of the Meteor was an ancient thing in and of itself, possibly being some kind of bedtime story for the people.Or something gave it to her. The Starries, perhaps?>>539186257Genwel was teased even in the original game. Do you think this "lab accident" involving Fecto warped anyone away from the Forgotten Land? It reminds me of what happened to Susie, which makes me strongly believe Lightron had something to do with Star Dream. Haltmann took technology he never understood, and he may have even visited the Forgotten Land. Perhaps from the ruins of Holine, Alivel, and Lightron, Haltmann Works Company was born. Think about it. There were no corporate entities until then and the New World just happens to be the only planet so far with a history of corporate entities. I doubt it's a coincidence.
>>539186654>kirby borrows from real astrological terms, religious imagery, mythology, old school fairy tales and science fiction horrorcrazy stuff.
>>539187035doubtful since the prototype pods and niechels song seem to indicate they left on their own accord rather then by any warp fuck ups.void and elifis do have something in common they had one small bit of good in them. (and arguably zero since gooey exists)
>>539187159This isn't all of it either. Unlike his brother Fecto who holds the spear Antares, Genwel holds a spear called Ares, now we know Ares is the god of war, but the twins...>Their mother was Leda, but they had different fathers; Castor was the mortal son of Tyndareus, the king of SpartaThis shit goes deep. Even his spear is an oblique reference to mythology.
>>539187327Yes, but I meant if something happened to any of the scientists. Which means Genwel might be able to change if his Elfilin equivalent is discovered.I'd like to draw attention to the nature of the crystals and their power. They seem to be sentient in a way since they take the form of flowers and seem to be guiding Kirby on his quest to save the Starries. They build a pathway for him and help him get to where he needs to go. They may even be able to become whatever Kirby needs them to be by reading his mind.>>539187525Ares is the God of War. Genwel and Elfilis are conquerors of planets. They may be acting alone or on the behalf of something. For all we know they were created to collect animal specimens and genetic material. They seem to exclusively attack fauna.
>>539188154>Ares is the God of WarHe sure is, but he's also linked to the spartan prince Castor. Which is the star our blue boy represents it seems.
>>539188154wonder if those flowers were the inspiration for pix/holo defense API, whenever you defeat one it seems to "shatter" like glass (api 2.0 even has 4 four pointed shape rather then just diamonds)
>>539188376Does that mean Fecto and Genwel came from a star?>>539188492They look a lot like the Crystal Shards too. Kirby and the Forgotten Land is in a way a successor to that game, with it being the reason Dedede looks the way he does. The Crystal Shards are used as a weapon against Dark Matter, and I wonder if they're related to the Starries.
>>539188802>Does that mean Fecto and Genwel came from a star?Maybe, maybe not, but Chaos Elfilis looks like Pollux, with the Orange-Yellow colors and Genwel sure does look like Castor.Probably just neat color inspiration for them though.
it's interesting how star allies seems to borrow from nortic/norse myth while forgotten land borrows from greek mythand morpho borrows from like multiple depictions of death across mutiple cultures and myths.
>>539188985>I have my whole life ahead of me!No you don't, the butterfly Is coming.
>>539188960What's interesting about Genwel is he doesn't consume animals but instead consumes the Starries, meaning Fecto might have a preference for animals and is capable of assimilating other things. The Beast Pack apparently fed Fecto to allow him to get stronger until he could open a portal on Popstar. >>539188985Necrodeus is a death god in Kirby. Do you think he's Greek inspired too? He actually is the only villain in the series to actually kill Kirby if you die to him.
>>539189737Well his name is Necrodeus, Necro is Greek, and he does kinda look like Hades. He's definitely not Hel.
>>539189896The Greek word for death, yes. His name means "death god".Of course, Mass Attack is a spin-off, but it is interesting to note the Greek inspiration. This game has the only game over screen where Kirby actually dies.
>>539190315>This game has the only game over screen where Kirby actually dies.Interesting how it's also a game where Kirby doesn't have his powers.
>>539188985I wonder if HAL will borrow from other myths in future. Greek myth is well known and so is Norse to a lesser extent, it would be interesting to see them taking from cultures that don’t get so much attention like any Mesoamerican or African ones. Or since it’s a Japanese company maybe some characters inspired by Youkai.

>>539196580how about... a quasar star but it's quetzalcoatl or maybe those Australian dream gods, nobody ever talks about those like ever.
>>539200284this is easily the most important figure to the lore.
pan-SPERM-ia
Winter Horns/Northeast Frost Street looks a lot like London or am I just imagining that? Because that is the strongest argument to me that the New World is an alternate version of Earth populated by humans. Fitting that a king would be found there too.
>>539206363the big ben like clock being near a bridge? yeah it's London
>>539206363Yeah some areas are meant to represent something more specific rather than just being modern architecture, like the cathedral or the Mexican/Spanish looking area in the desert.
>>539207551Right, so to create a city that is all but confirmed to be London means that the civilization of the New World were humans/extremely close to humans with the same/similar history to the real Earth. Also, Dedede's fight taking place in a Cathedral means that the people from the New World's London must've also been Christians like real England. It would be very strange to not only model one of the worlds in the game extremely faithfully to a real city and allude to the religion of the real country that city is in and not have them be humans from an alternate version of Earth. Every argument for the New World inhabitants not being humans or a different kind of human seems to gloss over that.
>>539210353Well, it's not really a Christian cathedral, it's just meant to look like one. If you look attentively at it there is no Jesus stuff in it, instead there are atom and stars imagery.
>>539211864Maybe the New World religion was like Christianity mixed with astrology.
>>539200284I like the fact the Wild Minibosses figure basically says "the Forgotten Land itself wouldn't have changed much in the guys that came from Pop Star they just felt like acting like that when they got here"
>>539213134It was probably like that across the world. If the people of the New World did retain their respective religion (eg most Middle Easterners still Muslim, most Japanese being Buddhist or Shinto) then it probably had influence for Elfilis or any other oddities that came to Earth.
>>539211864>>539213134Might be a generic "praise the stuff in the sky" kind of religion, or maybe they just treated the sciences that way, if there was any kind of figure they worshiped it would be a real character in-universe.
Sometimes I wonder if I’m just a sucker for the orange fourth guys in group with no showing mouth
>>539238512If RBAY wasn’t for kids would Dedede be as grossly offensive as Cartman?
>>539206363Just because it resembles Jolly Old England doesn't mean it was. No human voices we hear in the game have an English accent. I theorize that Winter Horns is the oldest settlement in the New World, due to the architecture and lack of technology. We don't see any cars there either. I think this area was largely untouched by the three corporations and likely predates them. It was likely flooded and then at least partially abandoned, possibly caused by a ship crashing into the metro that was departing from what is now known as Originull Wastes. I'm going to assume this is how Holine built Blizzard Bridge, since its design has some modern elements to it like the metal railing and streetlights, but I'm thinking it may have been originally just a stone bridge and needed repair. It seems there were several projects Holine never completed like the tunnel that Kirby travels through in the second true level.>>539237417We have a religious cult in Kirby so it's not like they haven't had religions before. Maybe the cathedral was abandoned long before the inhabitants left due to their discovery of scientific alien technology. For all we know Fecto would have been worshipped by the people if the first thing he did wasn't to drastically alter their ecosystem to a dangerous degree. Here's another theory about the church. What if it's where Hyness' people worshipped? There was a conflict between them and the scientists that he brings up.
>>539248063Alright so there is one car but guess where it is? Blizzard Bridge. This is a more modern part of the town where cars likely drove through.
>>539248063I think they where more contemporary in their beliefs so they decided to side-step having to introduce some religious tie for them by making it just science dressed up with religious theming. Like if they had them worship something that something would have lore implications towards something that really exists in the kirby universe.I don't think they would have worshipped elfilis because they where genuinely above him, like its important to remember that a complete elfilis got bitched by the new worlds people somehow even with his mind powers and ability to rift space time.
>>539249959I just had an epiphany. What if they worshipped something to do with the meteors? The legend of the meteor showers was an ancient thing for them since the sign translates to "THE LEGEND OF METEORS IS BROUGHT BACK TO LIFE IN THE MODERN ERA WITH NEICHEL'S VOICE". This would explain the stars in the cathedral. If you look at the song's lyrics the arrival of the "star children" is seen as a grand event. I would like to draw attention to this part: "Meteor, look where you are—you traveled so far to get here.You sailed the galaxy wide to crash by our side and twinkle.You better ask all the other stars to hear your prayers.Stars that reflect deep inside your cold cosmic eyes.Songs of your children weave all of the truth of our lives." The last part of that song where she says "all the truth of our lives" is mixed into the incredibly creepy song that plays shortly before the DLC final battle ("Eternally Stirring Fa-lu-wa-a Song") which I theorize is coming from at least one of the Spaceship New World prototypes seen buried below the island. That line sounds like the inhabitants of the planet revered the Starries possibly in ages past, and the meteor shower may have come to the Forgotten Land a long time before Neichel wrote her song about it. For all we know the planet attracts these meteors for some reason. After all someone would have had to have seen this phenomenon for it to be a legendary thing passed through the ages. The sign advertising the song is seen alongside the ships far beneath the surface.
>>539252474I like what your getting at, an old worship that was not forgotten but people just kind of stopped caring about until neichel's visions.Makes me wonder where elfilis fits into the time frame? Kinda out-there idea but maybe elfilis's psychic powers are what gave neichel future sight of meteonelfilis's approach? Would tie him into this whole narrative.
>>539253217The idea that Neichel may have uncovered an ancient secret that predates modern society is very intriguing.I think Elfilis' arrival was what the people thought Neichel predicted, and that he arrived on the planet shortly after she sang it. She sang it again as the Spaceship New World left the planet, and it was heard throughout the galaxy, possibly drawing Genwel to arrive but the Starries delayed his arrival. Why would he wait all those years to finish the invasion his brother started? I think Elfilis heard Neichel sing TWINKLING STAR SHOWERS the first time around, but it wasn't broadcasted that day. Elfilis has gigantic ears so I could see him being able to hear a song sang several lightyears away, not to mention his psychic mastery. What if Elfilin drove him to visit the planet? Elfilin is the reasoning center of his mind.
>>539255552Idk if Neichel herself uncovered it, meteonelfilis figure says "it was considered a fantasy" like its noahs ark or something.It also says that id-f86 was discovered and it started the sinking of the islands is what gave credence to the legend, which implies to me that Neichel didn't have any visions before elfilis's arrival.What was it that said Neichels song baited elfilis to the planet? I can't really think of a motive for elfilis or mindset for both of them before they started to invade.
>>539256916>What was it that said Neichels song baited elfilis to the planet? I can't really think of a motive for elfilis or mindset for both of them before they started to invade.NTA but Elfilin says it directly if you talk with him a bunch at Kirby's house after beating the DLC iirc.
>>539257506Hmm the phrasing of it being from "this planet" seems to mean it was before he invaded, could it have just been another song not necessarily the one about the meteor? Otherwise it seems like it causes a time loop maybe?It might also be a translation implication where elfilis might have heard it while in captivity.
>>539257934I mean a "lost in translation" implication like if its phrasing in Japanese makes it sound like elfilis could have been on earth when he heard it.
if you could add anything to the lore, what would it be?hard mode: no retcons.
Ado x Riku
>>539264416The lifespan for Adeleine's species is from the start of DL3 up to exactly ten seconds into her next game appearance, at which point she will spontaneously combust in comical fashion to the acknowledgement of nobody.
>>539264416What if Dedede's design changing all the time is one of his abilities? Like he can just alter his appearance kind of like Elfilis does with his different forms.
>>539264416Staman of air riders being like the Kirby of starmen, a gag hero who thinks Kirby is his heroic rival
>>539264416Adeleine is aware of everything and everyone in Kirby's universe.
>>539270307The way Starman's described as having the courage of a hero makes me think of him more as a hero's sidekick, sort of like Bandana Dee.
>>539256916That goes to show how old the legend is.But the song she sang drew Elfilis to the planet, Elfilin explicitly says this in one of his lines at Kirby's House.Here's a crazy theory. Panspermia is mentioned in one of the tracks. Think back to the song TWINKLING STAR SHOWERS, one of the lyrics says, "songs of your children weave all the truth of our lives", implying the people of the forgotten land were born somehow from the meteors, and panspermia is the belief some alien force created life after traveling to Earth, implying the people of the forgotten land WERE NOT HUMAN (or were human-like but born from stars) and their desire to leave the planet may be rooted in their desire to discover what created them.
>>539264416>King Dedede is able to use elemental magic and has trained himself to do so after witnessing Kirby's many elemental based copy abilities, in new mainline games we see this expressed more.>Meta Knight knew about Dark Matter but did nothing during the Shimomura era because he wanted to swoop in and save the day once Dream Land was effectively destabilized due to its influence.>All Waddle Doos serve Kracko>Taranza becomes friends with King Dedede. Susie becomes friends with Meta Knight.
I strongly believe the people of the New World were content not knowing their origins until Neichel sang her song. This lit a fire in the inhabitants of the planet to begin to research space travel, inspired by the lyrics to see these stars for themselves. Maybe it wasn't about abandoning their world at first until Elfilis attacked. After that they understood they couldn't live on their home planet anymore and decided to leave it, with Wondaria convincing anyone with second thoughts to journey with them. There was a small group who didn't come along; we don't know how many there were, but we do know Neichel was among them.
>>539271230It described that he could be mistaken as the hero but that being Kirby, from views beyond his own he could be the MC if there wasn’t a kirby
>>539270951She does seem very smart and knowledgeable. Maybe she is related to the Ancients.
the next kirby game should really bring back sprays from amazing mirror/squeak squad, it'd be a neat collectible that actually has an effect on the game somewhat like the masks in RtDL deluxe

Mario can summon a keyblade but kirby can't?unfair
>>539282456he was just passing the keyblade along to sora, not "wielding" it himselfnomura's objection to kirby using a keyblade is bullshit though
>>539282456Keyblades are retarded, just like everything else about KH (and not in any kind of fun, enjoyable way, just a plain retarded way).
>>539282456Mario didn't exactly summon or wield one, he grabbed a normal blade of fire/magic and from that was able to give the key to smash to Sora to enter
>>539264416The race/species Taranza and Sectonia come from were once nearly exterminated by the People of the Sky after several centuries of covert possession and body theft. The buried purge explains the queens’ ferocity against them as well as her desire to seize Floralia without retconning anything.
>>539284814who needs the keyblade when you wield the power of kingdom hearts itself?
someone needs to draw a S-AX ID-f86 fusion like this
>>539289571>Kirby is the chi-blade
>>539291096wait, wait, wait, better idea: the X amalgamation at the end of dread with fecto forgo since it's a similar concept.
>>539286278btw Sakurai said he wanted Mario to actually explicitly wield the keyblade in the trailer and unlock the keyhole with it but disney said no
>>539284814>nomura's objection to kirby using a keyblade is bullshit thoughConsidering >>539293236, it could actually be Disney that's to blame desu
>>539293310>>539293236honestly, i would suspect it was because sakurai didnt want kirby/mario wield something with the mickey symbol on it as like an awkward thing against having none vidya related stuff in. like how the dive-to-heart stained glass has every disney reference meticulously removed which is funny to think about if you know the lore
>>539294007Disney is notoriously litigious so I'm not surprised he would do that. So, I may have gone a little wild with my last theory, but I have another theory to share.Fecto causes any animals he controls to go absolutely feral, which proves he only controlled Leongar and Dedede. Clawlorine was secretly acting against him and gathering intelligence to explain why her lover (Leon) was acting strangely. Both Gorimondo and Sillydillo behave pretty normally with signs of sophistication in the latter, given he can actually make various things like paper mâché dolls and even an armadillo dance partner. I think Fecto does this by drawing out the natural killer instinct they have inside, since Leon is driven to biting and clawing at Kirby in a wild frenzy. This seems to cause them a lot of pain too and that only makes them even wilder. I just noticed a detail on Leon that might hint at his past. He has metal circlets on his arms, implying he may have been chained up in the past, possibly even a zoo animal. ...Or he was a circus animal.
>>539297201the circus animal thing might be accurate, after all clawolines fight WAS in a big top tent.
>>539300024I made a theory years back on Gamefaqs that Wondaria Circus is where the animals from the Beast Pack came from. After all, if Wondaria was built after Fecto's invasion then the remaining animals would become spectacles and would need to be in some form of conservation. They may have been genetic experiments too.
>>539300910both phantom sillydillo and goromondo seem to have anchors too so they got around a fair bit as well, a giant gorilla makes sense but sillydillo doesn't exactly scream circus very much.
on the subject of the beast pack, the dream discoveries tour voice over talks about how elifis attacked the native wildlife, do you suppose they had their power/alterations then? that could of been the point where elifis saw their potential as useful tools to manipulate later.
>>539301373The phantoms are creations of Fecto Forgo. Sillydillo may have never been in the circus.>>539302021He likely attacked the animals by assimilating them into his form, I think he looked different before arriving on the planet and took on a new appearance due to all the animals he consumed, but before he could absorb every animal on the planet he was stopped. Animals stopped eating each other and decided to form a new society in the absence of the people. Fecto brought extinction upon multiple creatures but the animals that survived somehow adapted to become bigger, either through some kind of evolution or scientific experimentation. They may live longer than regular animals so they can't go extinct, which the former inhabitants feared.
>>539303918where d'you think they got the leopard print for dedede anyway
>>539302839considering genwel is pretty much the same I'd say he'd not look too much different then he does now if that's the case.it could be a case of natural evolution as well, people have been gone for quite some time>>539304118the real question is the wart hog mask.
>>539304328>the real question is the wart hog mask.That one seems to be made out of wood and leaves so I imagine they could've carved it, what I wonder is what poor fucker had to be skinned for the coat
>>539304118ethically sourced
>>539304118>>539304328Maybe there's a museum where they got the leopard pelt and mask from. It could also be fake animal print from the mall.
>>539304118If the theory that the Beast Pack were circus animals is true, then there were probably some strongman outfits in Wondaria which they used for his coat.
>> 539305574HOLY FUCK MIKASAYAMA'S ART SPOTTED IN THE WILD
wonder if the tree crown and marx sharing an attack means anything.probably not.
Don't thank me
>>539311153
>>539309681I really liked their (her?) Dededeverse art and comics even if some people might think it’s a little cringe.
maybe clawroline gave birth and they skinned the offspring for the leopard print
>>539311153>Mouse mode joy con 2 machineKinda genius.
>>539264416Adeleine has a pet chihuahua
>>539308142Maybe Carol got her magician outfit from a backstage dressing room. There were likely some leopard print leotards if the Big Top also had wrestlers and strongman performers. I think Dedede would've liked that considering there's a huge wrestling arena in his castle.

>>539342748I simply think that Kirby and King Dedede would have a cute relationship but also bed breaking sex. Dedede and Ado, too. Nothing more nothing less.
>>539342907Most people only ship because they want to fuck a character in the ship or >>539343093
>>539342907Like the reason people like taranza x sectonia is not the same as dedede x adeleline and that manifests how you people talk about it.>>539343093Like its just horny posting but with two characters instead of one. Its not like theres any interest in the actual characters outside.
>>539340997Come on, there is appeal in seeing Kirby comfort and console King Dedede when he's left high and dry or fails. Even though Kirby is still King Dedede's rival, Kirby's the closest to him outside of his subjects which strikes a nice contrast and balance. That whole "I want to best you but I want to be in your eyes" type of deal.

>>539304328Genwel looks different because of the starries he assimilated. Fecto probably took on the traits of animals he consumed in a similar way.Perhaps so. A lot of creatures that used to be bigger are now smaller.>>539308142This reminds me how many Kirby mid bosses have been lost to time.>>539325668One of the posters in the mall advertises a magic show. (It's easily the rarest of the posters and I can't find a good picture of it.) Said magic show was sponsored by Lightron.
>>539351989Its shape makes me wonder how big the population of the Forgotten Land was, in size and stature.
>>539361446Real question i have about meteonelfilis is why was he goop before absorbing starries? Is the natural form for the "elfilis" species more like goo or the thing? Then they need to absorb things to achieve their solid anthro form.Another thing thats confusing is why is meteonelfilis a meteor in the first place? Is it a form elfilis can take too? did he arrive as a meteor the same way, without the starries?
>>539362062I think so. Especially if they're incomplete like Forgo was.Well, here's an interesting theory that comes from the lyrics to Neichel's song. "Next piece of the story now, please tell me.The jewel box split open on a fateful night.Darkness and light, flicker and fight.Newborn cries arise to the skies.Over and over, again and again, thousands of times.Is this the birth or the end of days? Darkness or light?" I think Elfilis arrived on a meteor as well, but it was a meteor of light to compliment his brother's meteor of darkness. Elfilin mentions being "wrapped in the starries' embrace" before, implying he was once crystalized by them. Perhaps after enough time being sealed up, they may change from bad to good. For all we know the starries are what awakened the supressed Elfilin, since we know Elfilis deliberately ignores his kinder side to engage in destructive campaigns throughout the galaxy.I have another theory. You can see damage and signs of incomplete repairs in several places like the Natural Plains cityscape, and I think this damage was caused by Elfilis. It couldn't have been done after the planet was abandoned since they obviously tried to fix it, but for all we know some of these places were closed down before the final departure. One place that has no construction is Wondaria, which was built after Elfilis' capture. Holine was the company who worked on these projects, but they were stopped after funds were dedicated to developing spaceships. Alivel Mall may have fallen into disrepair before it was even forsaken by the former inhabintants.
>>539365515What split elfilin off from elfilis was a warp experiment done while he was captured, before then i think we can assume elfilin didn't "exist" and was just his frontal cortex, which as a side theory is why his ability to think and speak breaks down near the end of the game, and why chaos elfilis is mindless, he's filled in the rest of himself with chaos morpho power/Maybe Meteonelfilis is not just the end of the world but the start of a new world, i get that vibe from the lyrics "Newborn cries arise to the skies" why specifically newborns on the end of the world? I mean it would make sense where there are legends of him even though we was not bested before on the new world, he killed off the dinosaurs or something and made humans/new world inhabitants.The thing that troubles me the most is where elfilis encountered the "starries embrace" before, i take it to mean thats being sealed but then how did he get out and why didn't he go all parastella crystalis genwel like his bro did if he could have absorbed them? Maybe he was trapped but meteon freed him and he became genwel-ly then, they do kind of push the idea that meteon is his base state even before he ate the starries at the climax.I think elfilis did cause mayhem when he arrived, figure descriptions say he started sinking islands/continents when he arrived so idk why a mall would be spared.Idk about elfilis and meteonelfilis having a dark/light dynamic, they seem kind of alike in their goal and meteon does go all "avenge my brother" cooler style.
>>539367040they also have a "sun and moon" thing going for them too which given the nova connection, is very fitting.
>>539367819Whats their sun, moon, and nova connection?
>>539368092theia is the plantary thing that hit the earth and became the moon, while the other song, roche limit can also refer to the sunreal astrological hours.
>>539367040This implies the scientist were likely doing neurological experiments on Fecto.Well, he did inadvertently allow the animals and the waddle dees to create their own society.He may have just escaped after some time.There are buildings in Everbay Coast that are partially submerged, meaning he may be responsible for that. The devastation only gets worse in the northern island, which I theorize was largely abandoned before they left the planet. They may have had to flee south for the most part.>>539367819I noted that in the last thread.One area that seems untouched by the devastation is Winter Horns, but that's easy to explain; few animals live in colder climes and Fecto Elfilis was mainly attacking places with wildlife. The city at the beginning is on a coastline and has a very tropical climate, with palm trees seen around Alivel Mall (the one where you fight Gorimondo), specifically in the parking lot.Here's an idea of how Fecto sank the islands. The meteor sank islands when it arrived, and it may have arrived in a place that no longer exists. This place may have been mostly inhabited by animals, and it was where Gorimondo, Clawlorine, and Leongar came from. We never explore any natural environments in this game and that's because they're all gone. This means Fecto may have killed off several animals by drowning them,
>>539369181or the sheer impact of the meteor, something that big is bound to cause alot of damage just by impact alone.
>>539368598I forgot about the song titles, actually talking about meteonelfilis being not just the end of the world but also the beginning, "radiant song of theia" basically confirms it. Meteonelfilis is space sperm that ends the world and creates life.Kind of gives a unique perspective on them, they don't just end life but create new ones somehow, maybe this is how they reproduce? by fucking a planet, absorbing all of its life and creating new ones?>>539369181>>539369552To be fair meteonelfilis's meteor didn't sink any islands immediately, hell if anything it made one. But that might just be because its a later addition as dlc, cant exactly remove parts of the game now.
>>539369760to be fair the meteor was knocked off course according the figurine so it could have fucked up where it was supposed to hit.
>>539370015To go even fairer beyondThe meteor was meteonelfilis the jobber who, even though being a superior form, got bitched without even needing a big rig.
>>539369552It had to have landed in a different place than Genwel's meteor, since that island was sunk for a long time. I have a theory it was originally where they built ships since several prototypes are seen deep below it.>>539369760Destruction and creation are closely related. It reminds me of Galactus and Ylveltal. That is true but it actually caused one of the islands to emerge, since we see hints of civilization beneath it. >>539370015It was probably heading for Waddle Dee Town. It's not far away from there.

>>539340334>>539343662Canonically, Adeleine is Dedede's closest friend and the person he's shown confiding in the most. Kirby is at most a colleague like Meta Knight.
>>539373059Idk man, him and meta knight teamed up, built a whole tower and wore ancient satanic artifacts just to fight kirby for vibes. I think they are all good friends.
>>539373059Adeleine is probably like a daughter to him.
>>539373059Why does she call Dedede her husband?
>>539373285Dedede has a lot of friends, but Adeleine is singled out as the person who's closest to him.
ok I admit itI think I actually unironically like kingdom hearts
>>539373285I doubt Dedede would put his good friend in the way of Kirby just for his personal gain. At least Meta Knight has some motive going for a battle dynamic to work. Adeleine should've appeared in Fighters 2, though.
>>539375827>we will never get the alternate bearinstain universe kingdom hearts where it's looney toons and dragon quest instead
>>539373059It depends on the media, I won't deny that Ado and King Dedede are besties and close (especially in the mangas) but Kirby and King Dedede have a deep bond that's developed and strengthened over the series itself. From the development of their rivalry to genuine friendship, it's very well thought out and developed. Calling Kirby a mere colleague to King Dedede is a bit disingenuous.
>>539308142Didn't think of how Leongar utterly mogs the Fire Lions from back then
>All the Elfilis discussion I missedHey, no fair, I was busy today!>>539359306Honestly? Vanilla. As nice as the extra choir in Starry is, I think the parts it muffles are a bit too much of a loss. Vanilla's also one of my favorite tracks... ever, so I think I'm just skeptical of any arrangement.>>539361446>Genwel looks different because of the starries he assimilated. Fecto probably took on the traits of animals he consumed in a similar way.On the discussion regarding the Elfilis's native appearance, I'm inclined to believe Fecto is probably the one closest to a "default" Elfilis specifically due to the whiskers. I've said it before but if you look veeeeeery closely at the Dark Meteor, you can make out Meteon's larval form wrapping itself in its ears. If you look even more closely, in that form he still has the whiskers, despite not having them as Genwel, which is really interesting.>>539362062>Is the natural form for the "elfilis" species more like goo or the thing?I strongly believe that's the case, the cores are their souls (Meteon actively having it more exposed, Elfilis fighting to keep it hidden) and their physical matter they can manipulate more freely, at least to a degree, and that "Elfilis" form is probably the most "optimal" evolution they can devise, with each brother keeping the same mold but prioritizing slightly different things (i.e. Meteon's tail).>>539367040>spoilerAh, guessing you saw the thing from the guidebook too? It is also somewhat hinted at in the novels.The stuff about Elfilis/n having a connection to Starries is... Interesting. I've always gone with the idea of him going down onto the Forgotten Land as Fecto Elfilis, given the game frames all of it around "invasion" and the tour mentions the fact he targeted the wildlife, it feels as though it was something much more proactive than just "meteor fell and killed stuff"... And the thing with Meteon's meteor being knocked off course is also very odd to me due to the 2 figures...
Randomly felt like making this
>>539394835Stylish!
>>539391572Perhaps Fecto is drawn to animals because he himself resembles them. For all we know he was created with animal DNA already implanted in him. The idea that the New World is the only planet to have animals is absurd, since Kirby bosses and enemies have resembled animals in the past.It didn't start off as the "Ultimate Life Form" but after absorbing most of the animals on the planet it took on a form more powerful than it was when it fought Kirby, with it being weakened by several years of genetic deficiency. It's power in the DLC secret boss might be similar to how powerful it was when it first invaded.I have reason to believe the Starries were created as a response to the destruction wrought by the Elfilis species. We have no idea what created them, but their entire purpose is sealing galactical threats. This implies the Elfilis brothers were so dangerous to the galaxy at large that they needed to create something to specifically deal with them. This entity/society that created the Starries must be far older than the Forgotten Land, with their origins shrouded in mystery. Elfilis are shaped like hearts, with the Evil Meteor looking like a heart even before the starries encase it. A heart is not good or evil but capable of both, meaning the Elfilis species is capable of moral reasoning similar to a human. Star Dream was a heartless machine, and Void was an immature baby, but Fecto and his brother have neo cortexes and that's what Elfilin is. Elfilin is Reason and Forgo is Emotion, meaning that Elfilin may have gained his emotional side back after Kirby defeated Chaos Elfilis.
>>539378407Kirby and Dedede are friendly rivals, but not lovers. Kirby has only shown canonical interest in girls and had girlfriends. Nowhere in the games, manga, or novels has he expressed romantic interest in Dedede or other guys, and their friendship doesn't imply such a thing.
>>539140786>>539173258A blast from the past. Shame Ultimate didn't wind up adding any exciting DLC outside of Banjo. Min Min was kind of cool just for not being the expected rep for ARMS I guess but there was no chance we weren't getting somebody>>539264416Does explicitly canonizing the anime count as a retcon? It would be really funny. That or Kirby's attitude in Avalanche.
i still want a game that makes its theme the sheer number of available abilitiesi mean, rtdl had super abilities, tdx had hypernova and you know the rest, i want them to go back and focus and elaborate on one of the series' core mechanics, instead of adding a new one and centralizing a third if not more of the game around it
We need to go back to the Super Abilities and continue expanding them. They must be iconic and central to Kirby’s powerset. We must return to shonen, as Sakurai-SAMA intended.
>>539409692I dunno, driving a 6 wheeler into a god is pretty shoenen as it is.
>>539409692Every time Sakurai has revisited Kirby since Super Abilities were introduced, they were focal. He discarded his beloved Cook for Ultra Sword as Kirby's Final Smash in Smash Bros, and they form Kirby's super move options in Air Riders as well. It's safe to say he's a fan.I very much appreciated that every ability in Forgotten Land gets to benefit from the upgrading gimmick, even if it's not entirely equally distributed. If Super abilities or Robobot modes return I'd definitely want them to be universal to every ability in the game even if it meant less abilities with more limited movesets overall. That's the formula the best games, the Dark Matter Saga, used: few abilities with simple movesets but exciting combinations.
do you think morpho being able to make his sword giant is considered the ultra sword?
>>539411943It's definitely inspired by it.We have two conflicting lore points here. Elfilin says he was drawn to the planet by the song TWINKLING STAR SHOWERS, but there are some who say he arrived in a meteor that fell to the planet. If he did arrive in a meteor then that means he could influence the direction of the meteor and can hear things while inside it. Another mystery is the top of Lab Discovera, which has a radio tower and a helipad on it, but we never see a helicopter anywhere in the game. I speculate that this helipad was a last-ditch escape method in case Fecto escaped. And where did that semi-truck come from? I speculate it came through a portal courtesy of Elfilin since he has that power.
>>539414505he says that he was trapped in the meteor "long ago" so it's more likely he busted out and then found the forgotten land later, so there isn't really any conflict.
>>539411943>do you think morpho being able to make his sword giant is considered the ultra sword?I think it's reasonable to assume Morpho can use Ultra Sword at will. We haven't seen fully-developed borbs do it before but they do seem to have multiple regular abilities on tap at once, so it's probably something they can learn.
>>539414969it's even more impressive since his sword can use flames as well like star allies does and can even manifest multiple swords like void.the most interesting thing is the soul echoes, in forgotten land they look like forgo but in star allies they just look like grinning faces, wonder if that means anything for galactica. the disruption attack is also interesting
>>539406438>are friendly rivals, but not lovers>Kirby has only shown canonical interest in girls and had girlfriends>Nowhere in the games, manga, or novels has he expressed romantic interest in Dedede I think you've fundamentally misunderstood the point and mechanism of shipping in that it isn't supposed to be an objective true or false. When it comes to shipping, canonicity isn't the absolute but the support in your ship. Canonicity and officially backed material is great in supporting your ship, hence why I brought up the way that King Dedede and Kirby have a lot more moments and interactions throughout the series and how King Dedede's redemption and growth is intertwined with his rivalry and friendship to Kirby and in a lot of promotional material, King Dedede tends to be paired up with Kirby like in pic related which helps in the general quality, appeal, and understanding of the ship. It's not so much to say this is canon but that this is good.
How the fuck did Magolor jack the Lor Starcutter from the ancients? The ancients definitely, absolutely the inhabitants of NEICHEL's world, could he cross over dimensions or did he do a grand theft starship while they were in transit?
>>539418819he said he found it on halcandra.
>>539414845So, you're saying he was intercepted during a previous invasion by the Starries and decided to go elsewhere? For all we know he was mid-invasion when he heard the song.It's time to try and trace Fecto Elfilis' invasion pattern and what areas got hit the worst. I think Originull Wastes is easily the biggest place to get damaged, since it's where the Awoofies came from and it seems they are endangered in their purer forms, possibly showing an adaptation after they left the Forbidden Island. For all we know a lot of the animals adapted upon leaving the island. I have a dark theory regarding Wondaria's dogs; they might have been victims of Fecto's assimilation. Or they traveled with them to space. That being said, the closest thing we see to dogs are Awoofies, and I doubt their dogs were Awoofies. Obviously, they weren't eggs, but they clearly had floppy ears which Awoofies don't have. Dogs are one of many animal species who no longer exist on the planet, but maybe Elfilin can atone for his actions by warping animals from other planets to the Forgotten Land to live. I think another reason the inhabitants left was Fecto took out all their livestock (if they had any) and they had to come up with new ideas for food, courtesy of Alivel. For all we know the invasion is what broke Lightron up, with it needing to focus all its energy on studying and containing IDF-86. It couldn't build or provide entertainment like it once did, and therefore two new companies were created to fill those societal needs.
>>539416252>"Each ring is adorned with the mark, initials, and a colored stone with the stone meaning of "friendship," which is inspired by the rivalry between Kirby and King Dedede.">友愛>https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/友愛>Fraternity (yuai) refers to the love between brothers (siblings), the love between friends, friendship, etc. It is one of the branches of ethics and morality, and is sometimes the subject of philosophical thought.HAL views the two under the notion of brotherly love. Do you mean that they support romantic relations between brothers? Are Kirby's canon romantic feelings towards Ribbon and ChuChu supposed to mean that he is actually gay because of these friendship-themed rings, which mean in your head that HAL supports Dedede marrying his rival?
>>539419956The rings are more of a "Cute, HAL is putting my favorites together! Imagine if they got married with rings like those." type of deal, not HAL making an official statement about incestuous brotherly romances. It's promotional material I can use as shipping fuel, nothing serious. Again, I think you’re misunderstanding that, at least in my case, canon is more of a supportive thing when it comes to shipping.
>>539420774So Dedede and Kirby being romantic lovers isn't actually being promoted, it's just their shippers wishing it was the case when really there's no evidence of an actual romantic relationship existing between them within canon or anything produced by HAL?
>>539421971Correct, you finally understood one of the focal points of shipping. While canonical information and material can be fun and helpful for fleshing out your ships, like using Kirby and King Dedede’s rivalry to friendship over the course of the series in developing a rivals to lovers type of deal for them, it's not about being absolute on whether or not it is canon but the fun in shipping itself. Like a a scenario post FL where Kirby sleeps with King Dedede and comforts him because he just can't get a proper sleep due to the effects Forgo had on his mind. That type of thing.
>>539422364>>539422940So if a story promotes two characters being in love, a person who enjoys the story and the characters is a shipper for liking what is presented the same as someone who makes their own stories derived from the original?
>>539423731Yes. Shipping is more of a action and hobby.
>>539419956>>539421971>>539423731Why are you so autistic over this? Most shippers know their ship is not canon but choose to interpret signs of closeness as romantic instead of platonic.
>>539394835That's cool.
>>539424082So you are saying that shippers who make up their own romantic pairings which don't exist in the original story, as in the case with Kirby x Dedede, inherently engage in NTR towards the author-promoted ships which do exist within canon or other works produced by HAL.
>>539432614Correct although, most of the time the author backed ship just disappears in the fan's ship rather than becoming explicit NTR
>>539391572I think fecto might just be the default, heres what ive got as a full "species timeline" idea;Meteor flies through space and then melts down after it lands, as goo it eats and assimilates things around the level of the forgotten land inhabitants and culminates as fecto forgo, which is its ultimate goal. But if it absorbs something efficiently "strong" like morpho knight or the starries it can evolve further into stronger forms like "chaos" or "genwel".Their respective cores i think lend to this idea of them hanging onto something stronger, like chaos elfilis' orb is literally the morpho energy he has absorbed, so its all ethereal and abstract because its raw energy. But meteonelfilis is physical starries so his phase 3 is a real material solid crystal.
>>539410746I'd say Robobot was pretty damn shonen as well.
What guest characters, if any, would you expect for Air Riders? And I don't mean like a ton of 3rd parties or even other Nintendo owned characters, just other Hal made ones and the one off Namco character.
>>539452161Samus and Chao.

>>539494489thocc human susie
>>539494489I think is the first time I've seen a Susie gijinka that doesn't make her morbidly obese
>>539495452>make her morbidly obeseexcuse me?
>>539495681You're excused
>>539495681A lot of gijinkas I've seen that aren't made by the Japanese make her really fucking fat.
>>539496031they're western artists, what'd you expect
>>539496354It makes no sense and it can't be that every Susie gijinka artist has a fat fetish.
>>539494489Juat don't think about it, time goes by way faster when you don't think about anything important.
>>539496885I can hear that image.
>>539449112I do think Fecto has no form without absorbing other things, and Elfilin may look the way he does because of that. I do believe Genwel was the more dangerous of the two due to his seniority and may have even devastated more worlds than his brother.>>539496031Egg-shaped like her father.I couldn't find what you were talking about but there is a slightly curvier form someone on Reddit drew. Maybe it's because I'm a bit of an architect but she looks fine to me.
>>539498642That is the best Susie. Any fatter would be disgusting.
>>539498764I'll spoiler this one for you then.I find it really cute though.
>>539499059Somehow, Susie being a fatass fits her and looks cute. I can't explain why but it just works.
>>539499059I forgot to spoil it....Sorry.Is this similar to what you've seen or is it worse?
>>539499189Well, she's an office type. Sedentary job and all that.
>>539499189Because she's a spoiled smug bitch and you know the second she has her father's company, clout, and its endless resources and assets she has no reason to stay prim and proper. >>539499446 this too.

>>539496553NTA but even the ones that don't have a fat kink still make her fat for muh heckin' plus size representation. Like how everyone was given repulsive tree trunk legs back in the 2010s because Steven Universe ruined everything

>>539526484I've created a monster...
>>539526484>extremely fat susie with a meta knight mask impression on her assHow fucking long has she been sitting on him?
>>539526962Hey, look on the bright side. At least the whole Dedede/Kirby shipping stuff has ended.
>>539526962Those corporate meetings do run long don't they...
might as well add DIOS MIO for mutual gaining reasons.
>>539526962Why do you think she kidnapped and brainwashed him? He has a new life as her cushion.
>>539527137Susie/Meta Knight is aligned with Dedede/Kirby in that both are mainly enjoyed by women who consume NTR, yaoi, and BDSM.
>>539550172The women I’ve met who like Kirby/Dedede view it as a straight ship where Kirby is female (most of the time).
>>539553036The BDSM elements where Kirby abuses Dedede is where most of its fans overlap with Susie/Meta Knight, with the yaoi fans making up the fujoshi side of the ship. You typically see it when they make gjinkas and show Kirby as a small boy.
>>539553036It's very cute.
Those Dededefags from a few years back really mindbroke him.
>>539550172You're definitely right on the yaoi thing. Kirby and King Dedede are male, it goes without saying unless you genderbend either of the pair. The BDSM for Meta Knight and Susie is 100% true too. Susie did facilitate in the kidnapping and mechanization and reduces him into a drone for her service which has resulted in a good chunk of non-angsty or non-general content to range from silly SonAmy like obsession to outright reverse rape domestic battery. I do have to ask, where did you get NTR from? From what I've seen NTR isn't all that common in Kirby shipping media, muchless NTR pertaining to those two ships which is a shame because that would be hilarious.
>>539557910>>539558181>skinny dededeterrible gijinkawhy are his gijinkas so cursed
>>539558267The NTR is implicit since he already dated ChuChu who he left for Ribbon, and for Kirby/Dedede to work, he'd have to leave her too.
>>539559262Oh, I thought you meant shippers are creating NTR cuckoldry scenarios common enough to be a trend.
>>539560391There's the Starman/Susie ship, and Susie set a precedence for leaving Meta Knight with DMK. Could be a similarity to Kirby there.
>>539498642I did have a thought that elfilin is kind of a species outlier, kind of like the opposite of the whole "absorb life to grow" instead being literally "nill life". So hes more like just a species derivative that was accidentally made from elfilis maybe.
rainbow sword vs master sword who win?
>>539562829Is Starman/Susie a thing? I always thought those posts were more tongue in cheek. I
>>539563082Isn't the master sword just some random blade meta knight owns? like its different from his own sword he has in game and artwork. But its not as confusing as designing a rainbow sword on a black/white console so it wins.
>>539563132NTA but I wouldn't put it past xwittertards to make it a thing since Susie is one of the few ostensibly "adult aged" female characters in the series
>>539563601But that makes zero sense, barring my bias towards MetaSusie, why worry about morals when you're doing something as self-indulgent and removed as shipping and for something as silly and cute as Starman/Susie? At least be sincere about it.
>>539564178People cant be sincere about anything anymore anon, its all 1000 layers of post-ironic self-loathing.
>>539563258Super GameBoy hook.
>>539564472I know but still, gameboy green is how most people played it when it came out, or grey if you had a pocket. or green again if you had a gameboy light.
>>539563082Master Sword beat Dark Mind who's like a demonic being, and Rainbow Sword beat Dark Matter who was created by an angelic being, but we've never seen it in action against 02. They are probably about equal.
>>539564318That's the biggest issue with shipping spaces. You can't just not like a ship, you have to wrap it layers of irony and moral superiority. It's one thing to compare and discuss ships like ship wars of old but nowadays it's a issue of whether or not your ship falls under several guidelines.
>>539564696Yeah... I was a greenie myself.
>>539564798How you stop feeling green soon anon.

>>539616248>No female Kirby characters are muscular.If you lifted up Flamberge's shirt you'd see a six pack.
>>539612084>"The usage of the term "ship" in its relationship sense appears to have been originated around 1995 by Internet fans of the TV show The X-Files, who believed that the two main characters, Fox Mulder and Dana Scully, should be engaged in a romantic relationship. They called themselves "relationshippers" at first; then "R'shipper", and finally just "shipper"."It's traditionally a way for fans of a fictional work to participate in a communal understanding about what relationships should be canon within the work and the message it would entail. If you're invested in a story's outcome, you'll likely try to piece the narrative together doing this. Other than that, it serves as an outlet for people who make fanfiction, usually women, so shipping culture evolved to encompass all the non-canon pairings they would invent and use in their creative works.

>>539675216No. It depends on the fandom you're in. If you're in certain communities or into certain games, you can't talk about the games without some pornbrained losers butting in and arguing over which girls have the darkest asshole or who gives the best face fuck. Shipper women and porn addict men are a plague.
>>539675641>If you're in certain communities or into certain games, you can't talk about the games without some pornbrained losers butting in and arguing over which girls have the darkest asshole or who gives the best face fuck.This has never once happened to me for as long as I have lived. I get the feeling you're trying to play it up as a bigger issue than it is out of fairness.

>>539676269>t. idolmaster fanYou do realize that that comes with the territory. I don't even qualify those as games simply because they're there to make money off of coombrained retards, as all gachaslop is.
>>539675216>>539675787i can go on /v/ right now and find several threads attempting to talk about games but then turn into porn dumps. not a bad thing but come on.
>>539676671>comes with the territory That's why I pointed it out that it depends on the game and because of the game's content porn addicts and shippers ruin discussions similarly.
>>539676737Again, that comes with the territory of it being /v/. You can't expect anything from that shithole but retards falseflagging as disappointed fans of consoles they don't own or posting tits with the most halfbaked excuse of a discussion topic with the sole expectation that others will come in and also post tits. Outside of very specific cases like these, it is shippers who co-opt normal discussions far more often.
I can't tell who's baiting who at this point.
>>539677089>Outside of very specific cases like these, it is shippers who co-opt normal discussions far more often.nta but I wish
>>539677089I don't think it depends on territory but what you are in that causes "shippers" and "porn addicts" if you're into games like Kirby then you're going to see tons of shippers ruin discussion at every turn when a specific character is mentioned compared to porn addicts because Kirby has more women in the fanbase than men. Vice versa for Idolmaster or games that predominantly have higher male fanbases. If you're into either type of games than the other, of course it's going to seem like your respective co-optees are larger and more invading force.

Jokes aside how does Neichel being the Lor even work? She stayed on the planet so she can't go to Halcandra to become the Lor.For this to be possible then the Lor should have already existed in the New World before the people left and then she gets absorbed into it. O algo.Or maybe someone returned with the Lor at a later time (but not so later), o algo... but that's getting too convoluted.Maybe the song describing the Lor shouldn't be taken that literally?
>>539717352I figured it was an "AI replica of her mind" situation. Neichel didn't physically become the Lor, but Lor is built off her personality, in a sense
>>539717652That makes it a more possible but still begs the question as to how or why it would even happen. Her mind should have been replicated before the New Worlders left and they carried her AI mind around until they put it in the Lor?That's possible but like why would they even think to do that.
>>539717652A replica, or... an upload? That perfect media mind, the songs of Neichel continued to sing even after death.
>>539718049That would still be a replica, genius.
>>539718020>That's possible but like why would they even think to do that.I mean, if you're heading off into space, having a replica of the mind of the woman that predicted space chinchilla showing up and wrecking shit would probably be a good call so it could give you a guide as to where you should be headed in the first place

>>539729296>Man I wish we got a 3rd sequel since I really did enjoy dread too.NTA, supposedly Mercury Steam was working on 2 projects, Blades of whatever which came out to... Basically no fanfare, so I imagine the guys not working on that are probably handling Metroid 6
>>539728687Honestlu wish Fighter WAS in FL. I can guess why it wasn't, but I find the thought of waltzing up to Elfilis and slapping the bejesus out of him with Kirby's bare hands (nubs?) funny AND awesome.

Despite RtDL being directly built upon the remains of GCN and Star Allies directly pulling the 4-player helper system, I still can’t help but feel a bit envious that we never got this game to begin with, not even a leaked build or anything. There’s just something about this game’s presentation, ideas and even gameplay that intrigues me and I feel games like RtDL haven’t really been able to truly capture.

>>539824804That I’m not sure. We know the final boss was supposed to look like this and Morpho Knight (or at least the early design of him) was likely gonna be related in some way. The most story we know is Dedede steals Kirby’s warp star, you were likely going to face off against Meta Knight and allegedly the extra mode would’ve had Dedede kidnap Kirby himself with you playing as one of the many helpers to rescue him.Kind of seems like Dedede would’ve been mind-controlled or have had a Adventure-esq motive since by this point it wouldn’t make too much sense for him to be a flat out villain again

>>539852442Please explain the appeal of Dynasty Warriors to me
>>539852783become a one man army, nuke everyone with bullshit magic powers, level up and nuke even faster then before, take over the world or something.
>>539852783Think Kirby Melee in Air Ride. If that appeals to you, then Dynasty Warriors should too.It's just a kind of simple, mindless, destroy every enemy in your path without really thinking kind of fun.But it's not for everyone.
>>539824804I don't think so. Kumazaki created the lore pretty much, and he only started working on the project on the final iteration. Or rather he is the one that created the RtDL version of the game.
>>539852442That's kinda just every kirby game though but not 3D most of the time. No real enemies stand a chance against you up until bosses and mini bosses so you are just running around and mowing down what can sometimes amount to the most harmless creatures who sometimes literally can't do more than trip and bump into you as their attack and some don't even do damage doing it to you
i hope air riders takes inspo from the more surreal aspects of 64, just like the original air ride did
kind of crazy how kirby lore was basically nonexistent until 20 years into the franchise
>>539879060not true, just the stuff about the ancients the dark matter stuff was there.

i think i'm starting to like jet's new hatthough i'm still kinda miffed at the lack of fins, i found that the engines replacing them can not just rotate while on each side of the helmet in order to provide omnidirectional thrust, but the grooves on the sides allow them to rotate back behind the helmet, transforming into a more traditional jetpack look
>>539974551I mean Kirby is known for that sort of thing I'd say it will, the only reason forgotten land did not is that they really wanted to sell the idea of it being earth(like)
Hi Kirbyfriends. Why isn't Zero like the Ganon of this series? Why hasn't he come back after Kirby 64? I want to know more about him, I want to see what he wants and how his mind works. I read a lot of weird analysis and theories about him in the 2010s and he seemed like the most interesting villain in the series but he's never even shown up in a game again since then.
>>539933635How? What does that even mean? It's like treating Meta Knight like your dad, or Susie like your girlfriend, it doesn't make any sense, you can't have a two-way relationship with a fictional character. Genuinely what did he mean by this?
>>539984002>Why isn't Zero like the Ganon of this series?Was more of a Shimomura thing than a Sakurai thing so I think he was likely always destined to be more of a "side" thing if that makes sense, although, while Zero himself doesn't come back, a lot of the newer bosses and lore seems closely related to him. Dark Mind is pretty implied to be related to Dark Matter (possible mirror version?) and by extension Zero, same with Magolor as the final boss in RtDL, his final form calling back to Dark Matter with the eye mouth thing and a few attacks. Most blatant would be Void Termina in Star Allies, straight up takes the form of Dark Matter, has a bird form with hexagon wings ala Zero2, and in the updates they gave him a new form in Void which has a red eye and white body. Zero himself died proper, but he's still fairly relevant by extension. Series likes having new villains with ties to the past.
what am i fighting for
>>539984271That's cool and all but it's kind of like making a bunch of Diet Dark Matters instead of just using Zero, that would feel like a much bigger deal. Maybe that's why they haven't done it actually, they're worried they won't do it justice.
>>539984271>Zero himself died properHe died in DL3 too, that didn't stop him from coming back in 64.
>>539984392>That's cool and all but it's kind of like making a bunch of Diet Dark Matters instead of just using Zero, that would feel like a much bigger dealI disagree, personally. I feel like at least Void goes above and beyond Zero in terms of presence, with the build up through the Jambandran cult, his connections to Zero as well as Kirby being an interesting tie to add to the series, and he almost feels like he's to Zero what Zero was to Dark Matter, which I think gives him even more weight. I think if you wanted a reoccurring Ganon type-deal, well, Dedede is definitely reoccurring, and in terms of coming from the "big" games, it probably could've been Nightmare (even more with the Anime propping him up), but Sakurai seemed to prefer going with unique big bads per game, which I think is a good approach. Zero himself is a Diet Dark Matter if you think about it like that, Dark Matter WAS around for longer given DL2 and all
>>539956525it said cuteness not fuckability you pervert.
>>539879060There was lore but it was a lot lighter.>>539942070The urge to post fat Susie intensifies>>539960960I hope whatever Kirby game we get next tells us more about Neichel. She has to still be alive in some capacity. They wouldn't just have her die in the Forgotten Land. I still think no one ever died and that's part of why things got overpopulated. There's no evidence of anyone even growing old. I have a theory as to one of the experiments done on Fecto and that's taking genetic material from it and using it to develop pharmaceuticals, as we see a pharmacy in the Natural Plains city. For all we know they relied on these experiments for food production too. Most of the animals got absorbed during the invasion so how did they get things like burgers and pizza, things we see advertised in Alivel Mall. Where did the ice cream come from? There's no cows. They had to have found a way to synthesize food, and this may be done by warping things in from other planets, which is what Fecto Forgo can do. It's not just the ability to warp between worlds, but also the ability to warp objects (Genwel grabs an entire building from a portal) and I think they relied on this until Elfilin split from Fecto, creating a crisis where they couldn't use his power to provide them with food anymore. This would only exacerbate the population problem. The HAL corporations put all their money and remaining food into Wondaria to get the citizenry to want to travel to space, but maybe they didn't tell everyone how bad things were, and I doubt the general population was privy to all of the things they did in Lab Discovera. There is no evidence of a government in the Forgotten Land which leads me to believe it was controlled by the three corporations.
>>539984002The real life reason is that Shimomura, the director behind the Dark Matter games, just disappeared and if he had any further plans on that storyline then they will never be fulfilled. Kumazaki, the current director, does love to tie the current games with the previous ones and there have been several references to Dark Matter under him already, so who knows, maybe the Dark Matter clan will reappear prominently one day.>>539984392Well, Kirby was never supposed to have a "Ganon" to begin with, all three of the main directors just do/did their own thing. Kumazaki wants his own new bad guys to have their own focus, even if they are somewhat connected to previous games, they are supposed to be their own new thing. They were never intended to be "Diet Dark Matters" or Zero replacements as Kumazaki keeps building new storylines.
>>539987072>They had to have found a way to synthesize foodHmmm...
>>539984002gannon is played out anyway.>>539987072I think we will see neichel and the ancients at some point, if the chozo can actually show up alive in metroid there's no reason why they couldn't or shouldn't, that "see you in the NEW WORLD" graffiti feels rather foreboding.
>>539984002Zero needs to be the villain in a new game, he's still one of the most memorable kirby villains
>>539983228>Kirby is known for that sort of thingi'd say that we've seen quite little of the aesthetic i've described since the mid-oughts; canvas curse was the last one to really use itmoreover, most of the games since rtdl have had consistent level theming with no real twists - they had nsmb-esque overtones (robobot excepted, but had a consistent technology theme instead) with all the juicy shit in the pause screenswhat i want are worlds that are entirely self-contained, tracks that look as if they have a library's worth of lore to them but explain none of it, and aesthetics that are both abstract and utterly extravagant, as if they were ethereal or from a different reality, not unlike pic related
>>539985875If you fap to circles because they're cute, you want to fuck them.
>>539989175I'd argue there's still alot despite the grass,water,lava,etc type maps, there's plenty of strange things to look at even in robobot like the bizzare hologram rooms, the city made up of metalic milk cartons and so forth.though some more bizarre things would be nice.
>>539989484>he doesn’t fap to circles to reach enlightenment ngmi
>>539989783I've always wondered what was the Robobot Invasion by HWC's long term goal because we know for a fact that mechanization is its modus operendi but it always made curious that in certain areas such as Rhythm Route or the area with the metalic milk carton city seemed more like the attempt to start a completely new HWC branded civilization rather than mindlessly harvesting the area's resources. I've always had this idea for the longest time that prior to Robobot HWC just went around siphoning from planets and then fucking off forever but now I wonder how many planets out there are now HWC-ified but still thriving?

>>539988538Adeline's paintbrush is actually an invention of the ancients. ...Or not.>>539988887I have reason to believe she wrote that.It does seem like within the span of over thirty years thy took great advantage of the warp technology. They may have even discovered a way to make food that never rots, which is why Kirby finds food that's fully intact with nothing wrong with it like the Wondaria soda cups. For all we know Fecto's invasion did something to the planet's roration which is why time passes differently. For all we know it hasn't even been that long since they abandoned it, but the time flows differently and because of that it wears things out faster, necessitating quality construction. >>539991414I don't like orbs, but I do like chubby.

>>539984834I think Void is great and I'm not trying to knock the other villains as their own things, but it's pretty distinct from Zero, I see Void as more of an extension of Kirby than Zero. It's pretty much pure potentiality and exists in a state of flux, while Zero is firmly evil with a set identity based on that, and he's like the opposite of everything Kirby is. And if Zero is a diet Dark Matter than Bowser is a diet Shellcreep. Dark Matter are demons, but Zero is Satan, he's the ultimate adversary.>>539987546Damn, that sucks. I wonder what happened to him. At least Kumazaki isn't a bad director though, he's got plenty of his own good ideas. Personally I loved Sextonia and Elfilis even if I want Zero back more than anything else.
>>540041478>SextoniaI promise that was a typo.
>>540041478>And if Zero is a diet Dark Matter than Bowser is a diet Shellcreep.Ah, I took that "Diet Dark Matter" wording as moreso implying they were just retreading what Dark Matter did, which U think Zero kinda does in DL3 compared to what Dark Matter himself did in DL2, I meant that Void is moreso a retroactive expansion on the concepts Zero set up in the same way Zero was to Dark Matter's concept. But fair enough there, I do lean more on Void expanding on Zero more than he does Kirby, but I guess it just comes down to a matter of perspective at that point now doesn't it. I'm assuming you enjoyed when Astral Birth went full blown-out white in its fight at least? One of the most blatant Zero callbacks as of late outside of his mask in RtDX in my opinion.

>>540093717sure why notarcher: fast projectiles, arrow rain/arch shotsjet: burst damage in the airwheel: high speedparasol: shields against projectilesESP:great dodgingartist: minions act independentlybeam: slows opponentsninja: stealth attacks, more speedydoctor: starts with over healmirror: reflects/creates duplicatesbell: stuns/disrupts chargesclean: nullify hazardsspider: slowing sticky websyo-yo: flail like movementmecha: makes mine hazards.needle: works like forgotten land wherein you can move and lance things to shoot them off
>>540103123kinda meant "enhancements" as adding the qualities and perks of the elemental abilities to the weapon/combat ones' movesetsbut this list really is genuinely solid, especially artist as a puppet fighter
>>540103332a rouge like Kirby game would be tough to figure out, fighters 2 50 floor mode sort of does it
I'm thinkin' about writing a bunch of spooky unfiction /arg type stuff for October, from the perspective of diary writings of a human who is subjected to all the horrors of the Kirby universe or short entry's written by various people/sciantists detailing various lore tidbits, not sure if I'll commit to it
>>540112081go for the perspective of a scientist from lab discovera looking at pop star in the months or years leading up to the planet's desertiongo with the timeline from DL1 all the way up to 64, with subtle hints for Void Termina on the horizon
>>540112268one idea I have is chronicling things like the creation of lab discovera, the building of wondera, the fall of halcandra, building star dream, all written by different scientists (or just one guy who gets genetically fucked with and then driven insane/turning into some eldrich abomination) throughout the years.
I do have a monster design in mind it's kinda an amalgamation of everything more or less, it's a bit rough though.
I wonder if the triangles on nova and dark matter's coat being orange yellow triangles was coincidence or intentional, drawica has the same thing going on as well.
FAIRY PAIZURI
>>540123975What the Darkrai doin'
>>540125291something something bad dreams.
>>540123975Ripple is a flattie doe
>>540063090>"Kirby, I remembered something during our recent adventures—something about myself from when I was trapped inside Elfilis. A while ago, I heard a mysterious song coming from this planet. Elfilis was drawn to it too. The singer's voice sounded kind and full of hope, but there was also some sadness to the music. It had a profound effect on me. There was something so mysterious about that voice traversing time and space..."Since Elfilis wanted to be complete with his good side and being naturally intelligent, I don't think he would hate all humans. Maybe he even let himself get captured out of kindness. His brother is probably genocidal, though.

>>540165586 would you ride on top of the heavy lobster machine or would it be modified to have a cockpit?
>>540166692I'd rather it be ride on top and be as similar to the og design as possible.
>>540175121fat FUCK

>>540002164She couldn't be.>>540063090I think they were (or at least some of them were) human but I refuse to believe the Forgotten Land is Earth.>>540096067Waluigi fans: "First time?"I have another Forgotten Land theory.Fecto's invasion screwed up the climate balance on the planet. Isn't it weird that you have a mild climate amusement park just below a frozen townscape? The only thing I can think of is elevation. This rather extreme weather may have been a deciding factor in why the former inhabitants left. The animals learned to adapt but the people never did. For all we know these places were beginning to flood, freeze over, or turn to a desert before they even left, leading to abandonment of certain places. Fecto may have even destroyed the metro by making a Holine cargo ship ram into it. I have reason to believe they captured him in Originull Wastes (or what it was originally called before then) and built Lab Discovera afterwards to contain him. As to what they held him in until then or how they transported him is anyone's guess, but I have a theory. Elfilin doesn't like extreme cold or heat. I believe they froze Fecto and brought him to the lab via helicopter, hence the helipad atop the laboratory. This method would make sense since it would preserve the creature while also keeping it incapacitated.
my kirby fangame will change the world.
i think i figured out chariotsbecause of their two-wheel design they're likely gonna operate on a kind of "differential" system when boost charging rather than drifting like stars or bikesmeaning, rather than sliding, they're likely to just slow down while making a tighter turn, using the differing rotation rates on each wheel to prevent driftingfor example, when charging, the left red wheel in this image will spin at a slower rate, allowing the right green wheel to rotate the entire machine around the turn without losing traction
>>540199176What is it about?
>>540200078maybe it'll tilt off of one wheel
>>540202550not sure, actuallycause chariot machines actually lifting off the ground while turning - even partially - would go against the boost charge input keeping other machine types anchored to the ground
>>540202760it'd still be anchored to the ground but it'd like lean/drift, kinda like how mario kart world handles it's grinding where one side is off the ground while the other grinds.
>>540203191i know that's what you meanti meant that by charging, the rider is actively pressing down on the machine, preventing any part of it from lifting off the ground
>>540203286thing is most machines tend to take time to slow down/stop when charging (save a few) so it wouldn't be too strange, the slick star doesn't have much traction when charging so maybe it'd be like that.
>>540200520you paint skies
>>540204834Oh shit, are you the one behind the Kirby Maker game? I thought that project was dead in the water, nice to see you back.
so, tiffs parents are they like nobles or royal advisors or what?
>>540206974Tiff's father is a prime minister.
>>540207131seems weird for them to be living in the castle then.
>>540207323Wait, are prime ministers not a part of royal court?
I'm sure you already know just how heroic he really is
>>540208904Starman has had sex with every woman and girl in the Kirby franchise.
>>540207429it depends on the country/year, modern ones don't typically live in castles that's more of a royal advisor type deal, even nobles don't, it's usually just the servants and guards.
>>540208904his theme: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Y3zUjuK2pg
>>540200078>>540203191i was wrongthey can drift
>>540208904He's more like a gag character who wants to be a hero even though he's irrelevant and has accomplished nothing for most of his life.
>>540214854>even though he's irrelevant and has accomplished nothing for most of his life.wrong
>>540207131If he loses an election, do they get kicked out of the castle?
>>540215184bold of you to assume anime dedede would allow an election.
>>540215781I'm surprised there wasn't an episode with that as a main theme or plot point.
>>540215086You can entertain him all you want, but the reality is Starman is a weakling that always leaves the heroics in Dream Land to his betters.
baking will post when ready
>>540216114please and thank you
