Here's a stupid question.

I've looked briefly through move lists, and the characters I looked for seemed to have 4 special moves each. Is this it? Or all the other moves not listed? One time when I asked, on CE, about the Smash games, someone told me each character has dozens of moves. So, are the listed moves just the best ones or something?

I mean...3D fighters usually have lots of moves per characters. It's more 2D fighters that only have a few moves per character.

The special moves are mostly intrinsically different from the numerous A-button moves. Take Mario, for example. B is fireball (projectile), Side-B is cape (reflector + turns the enemy around, is good for gimping recovery since it doesnt knock enemies out of the helpless post-recovery state), Down-B is FLUUD (can also gimp enemies and push them away since it does 0 damage) and Up-B is Super Jump Punch (Marios recovery move). Thing is, all of these moves have properties that rarely, if ever, show up on the A moves. Up-B is usually the recovery move (sometimes theres no recovery move for characters like Yoshi and Jigglypuff, sometimes theres multiple)


I must admit, I like Mario's moves. Fireball was a logical long-range attack, but FLUDD was cool as well. I'm surprised they put a nod to Sunshine in there, given how it's one of the least popular 3D main series Mario games. When did they add that move in? Has it been there for a long time?

FLUUD has been in there since Brawl, so like mid 2000s.

He used to have the tornado move that Luigi and Dr Mario have


They haven't changed it back yet?

Well, Smash is still dead to me then (at least post melee).


Thats why Dr. Mario and Luigi completely outclass regular Mario, the tornado is a much better move

But don't smash and aerial attacks, etc. vary between characters?


every characters hard punch, medium punch, light punch etc.. are also different in SFV/any other fighting game too. the game expects you to know basic attacks.

Why did the game think it wasn't worth listing all those other attacks, then?

This series really hates new players, doesn't it?


If you go to the movelist in a game like SFV it doesnt tell you the basic attacks that all characters share either, youre expected to know/figure it out since they are so basic, you wont see light punch, medium punch, hard punch, etc... listed in everyones movelist. It will only tell you the unique special moves/supers/command normals etc...

First of all, Smash isnt a 3D fighter (and lots would say its not a fighting game at all), having 3D models instead of 2D sprites doesnt make it a 3D fighter. All action happens on a 2D plane. Tekken is a 3D fighter, SFV uses 3D models as well and is still clearly a 2D fighter

Secondly, as far as attacks, each character has 4 specials (neutral, side, up, down), a jab (neutral attack), a dashing attack, 3 tilt attacks (up, down, side), 3 smash attacks (up, down, side), 5 aerial attacks (neutral, up, down, forward, back), 4 grabs (up, down, back, forward)

It feels like a scam finally exposed. No ones best friends nor wants to even do it anymore.

I mean based on what I've seen and heard Matt, Liam, and Woolie were all friends and got along.


Pat and Woolie have been friends since University and clearly still are as they will continue to work together, Matt and Woolie were also friends before the channel started, Woolie and Liam worked together in QA and became friends through that and Woolie introduced him to the others then I believe Woolie, Matt and Liam all worked together at another company doing QA. Woolie was asked to be the other Best Friend initially but didn't want to do it so he suggested Pat who agreed. Technically the original two "Best Friends" werent even friends at all when they started the channel they just knew each other through Woolie and I believe didnt even particularly like each other at that time. Just based on their histories Pat has always been the least close to the others (minus Woolie) and fully admitted that he and Liam were never more than "work buddies" who at no point were ever hanging out together outside of work.

Liam mentioned in a Resetera thread that "some things were said" between them, or something along those lines at least. It doesn't seem like Pat feels particularly strong about whatever happened, but I think Pat and Paige's names aren't allowed to be typed in Liam's stream chats.


Yeah Liam implied whatever happened between him and Pat was on both of them but its clear Liam holds a grudge longer than Pat which completely makes sense given their personalities, nothing really ever gets to Pat for long and Liam (and Matt) are pretty thin skinned. I think he banned the name in his chat because people were asking him non stop whether he would collab with Pat and he didnt want to deal with it after repeatedly saying he wouldnt. Its still pretty petty but Liam is fairly passive-aggressive and petty to begin with so yeah.

As soon as you get the death confidant (will happen through the story and fairly early) your first priority is to immediate get it to level 7 and buy sp adhesive 3 accessories for all your party members (cost 50k each at rank 7, 100k each at rank 5), you will need Guts to spend time with them so rank Guts up asap

Do dungeons asap and in as few days as humanely possible, you can get through an enitre dungeon in a single day once you have the sp adhesives

Temperance is another high priority confidant to rank up as soon as its available, Fortune is really helpful

Youll never do everything in one playthrough, so prioritize leveling up social stats because you WILL need them at certain levels to hang out with confidants and social stats carry over to NG+ while confidant ranks dont

On a first playthrough, besides the confidants i mentioned above, i feel like focusing on ranking up your party members confidant level should be a priority over others, they give nice skills that are useful in battles and level 10 will power up their personas

This wont make sense yet but dont waste a day in mementos unless you have multiple targets to take down, generally not worth the time otherwise

Been watching them for 6+ years now. Like others have said, the worst is that their actual friendship deteriorated. I can't help but be curious about the details. If those reddit posts are to be believed, it actually could've been worse and I'm thankful that they were able to make a proper sendoff (it was still abrupt to most of us but could've been even more so).

I tend to prepare a meal and watch a new video of theirs pretty often so it's gonna be weird for a while. They were actually like...apart of my life's schedule to some degree. Can't really say that about any other YouTube channel or streamer.


If you are a podcast listener as well, Pat and Woolie will be continuing that under a different name. Matt was pretty much dead weight on the podcast anyway so not much should really change

More than that he seemed to be genuinely reveling in the fact that they broke up which is pretty shitty considering essentially the entirety of his fanbase and the people who pay his bills and allow him to live his life by playing video games on the internet only know/care about him BECAUSE of SBFP and are also SBFP fans. He then deleted it with an "apology" only to repost it again because "people keep asking about it". All this from a guy who bans posts about SBFP on his own subreddit and does everything he can to distance himself from the brand/pretend it never happened. Then he was responding to people/liking tweets saying HE was the victim in all of this. He knew exactly what he was doing and only backpedaled when his own fan base turned on him for it, which any idiot should have been able to see coming since his fan base is 99% SBFP fans who are obviously sad at the news.

I can't watch a full playthrough that doesn't have Pat behind the controls, he actually pays attention to stuff in-game and doesn't flub around blindly like the other two


Woolie is generally decent as long as its not a Matt/Woolie LP, that combo has been pure poison no matter who is on controls since Matt came back from his break and hasnt given a shit about anything they are doing, when hes with Pat its a lot better. Im pretty happy that Pat/Woolie are going to keep the podcast going without the dead weight of Matt

After digging around some more, I found Pat had tweeted at Liam recently about Warframe:

https://twitter.com/AngriestPat/status/1066113623926333445

Oh shit, I had no idea you had your eye on Warframe. You starting fresh on switch or copying your PC over? Or just doing the PC I guess, though I figured you'd play the switch version lol. If you're new then now's the best time to get in, they just put out new hats yesterday!

Then the next day, Matt's wife made a vague tweet:

https://twitter.com/Crymetina/status/1066362692859035657

If you know someone wants nothing to do with you WHY tweet @ them trying to act like youre all friendly and shit ????
I mean I know why but can you fucking...just...not?


I always wondered if Pat had anything to do with Liam leaving because both Woolie and Matt have worked with Liam after the split, but Pat has never said a word to him since. And just recently someone asked Liam on twitter about his beef with Pat, and all Liam said was "we're not friends" and to leave it at that.

So it seems like Pat is the person who is driving people away.


Pat pretty openly said on his stream that he and Liam were work friends only and never hung out together outside of work even when Liam was still around and that they wouldnt be doing any side work together shortly after Liam left.

It seems pretty clear that Matt has been completely phoning everything in since he came back from his break, basically every lp hes in has been poison since then and hes probably skipped more podcasts than hes been in and even when hes there hes barely engaged in it. Seems pretty clear this is a Matt thing more than anything else especially since Pat and Woolie are continuing the weekly podcast together

The fanbase has been far too hard on Matt this year, especially during RPGs and this year's Shitstorm.
Upset about it ending, just this week I rewatched the video that I discovered them through and also the Deadly Premonition LP. Glad to have done that just in time because watching videos won't feel the same now, it's a shame that it ended in such an ugly way.


The fanbase has been "hard" on Matt becasue he has been clearly phoning it in for a long time in both videos and the podcast, making some of the lps hes in completely unwatchable and becomes a huge baby when faced with any amount of criticism, the only lps ive ever stopped watching are ones hes a part of

Wouldn't rotating characters to even out levels be considering grinding tho? Similarly to Pkmn?

Seems to me you're just trading 1 form of grinding for another.

Ex: If you use Primrose's skill that nets you EXP/JP multipliers, you still have to switch characters to train them all. But before this is even possible, Primrose and co. need to be trained enough to pull this off, without dying.

I'm pretty positive there is no way you can rotate all the characters enough to even out the levels, without frequent battling.


No? grinding is when you stop progressing in a game (either becasue you cant beat a boss/area or you are struggling due to being underpowered) with the explicit intent to level up characters so that you can continue. When i say swap party members out to keep levels even I mean after every chapter I completed, I would swap out the 3 characters you can change to other characters who were lower leveled and do the next chapter with them, so I would go into every chapter with my main + the 3 lowest leveled characters and by just progressing through chapters without running from a significant amount of random battles encountered during them, everyone stayed within the same level range (and strong enough to keep progressing without any trouble) and there was never a need to grind until postgame (I even unlocked the secret classes before doing all the Chapter 4s without grinding). The game isnt even THAT hard so even if you ARE somehow lagging behind, you can still easily take care of any boss thats within 5-8 levels of your party

Yes, the game is balanced for you to do all 8 chapter 1's before moving on to any chapter 2s, and all chapter 2s before 3, etc...

But after you get all the characters it matters who you have along with you as you do other chapters.

Ex: If you beat Therion's/(insert character) Chapter 2, if you bench Therion/(insert character) you will have to grind up to the recommended level to continue onto Therion's/(insert character) Chapter 3.

And that's not even including grinding skills.


Thats why you constantly rotate your party members to keep levels even and not let anyone fall behind, if you arent using the reduce encounters passive and actually fight random battles there will never be a point that youre under powered for a boss
