Seems like a small thing but i think they made the models larger.

beta gameplay

Also the parry looks super busted. The reason parries work in fighting games (they're still overcentralizing) is cause those games have grabs that force rock paper scissors, multihits and are mostly frame advantage+meter and not instant win buttons.

But here you do a parry and the enemy freezes so you get a free combo? Can't wait to get parried into Finn's backpack lol.

This is also HUGE for edge guarding against some characters. An offstage shaggy cant just yolo spin kick (a very telegraphed move) back to stage or he'll get parried and spiked. Casuals will get pubstomped even harder.

Yeah, bigger models was one of the first thing people pulled from the new footage. They also thought it was way slower, but from recent footage it looks like that was just due to the videos being released slowed down so people could see the models move and all.

Joker reveal.

Joker was expected to be included, but maybe this means they'll be gradually announcing characters to be in the game the closer it gets to the launch? They better have 8 more lined up if so, otherwise it looks pretty bare-bones. I was wondering why they didn't talk about it on that initial announcement trailer, playable characters are the meat and potatoes of these things. I guess we'll see, but if that FAQ turns out to all be true then color me interested.

Powerpuff Girls, Dexter and Animaniacs are all getting stages, so I assume they will make up the 8. PPG likely has the 3 girls, Dexter will probably just be Dexter, then I assume the Warner siblings will be 1 character. That at least gives you 5.

Townsville looks really good, but Dexter's Lab has Smash Stage Syndrome where it's just a floating island/cube in front of the actual stage. I know that the lab is always presented in abstract (it's an endless labyrinth on the best of days) but I can't help but feel like they could have done more to make it...not just a blender cube in front of a cartoon electric thing. I wonder if Dexter will be in his power-suit-frame-thing he wears sometimes or just on his feet. I guess they could also have him be in the giant Dexter mecha but that'd feel like a bit of a cop-out.

If they keep adding old Cartoon Cartoon stuff I might actually check it out this time around. I'd really love Hanna-Barbara stuff like Fred Flintstone, too.

Damn. Old cartoons were good. :(

I think Dexter’s Lab is going to have special stage hazards or something.
 
I kinda love joke characters but revealing banana guard after a year of hiatus and before the likes of Ben 10 is certainly a "bold choice" to say the least. This is not helped by his gameplay looking extremely basic spear pokes.

There are also alleged data leaks that the next character will be Jason Vorhes which will probably upset some people but i like it.
 
I mean, I started playing Gizmo and Reindog specifically because they were characters I didn’t think many people would pick up, so I’ll probably try out BG and see what he’s like.
