I feel like they'd have to go with Chris, Jill, Leon, or Claire, but if I could pick absolutely anyone then I'd go with Barry. I imagine they'd be able to do the koopalings/dragon quest hero thing easily enough though by having multiple character models with the same general moveset. Even means Tofu and Hunk could be playable.

But seriously Jill or Leon would be the best options I feel. I would have said Claire too but I have no idea what her moveset would be like. If we're talking villains then definitely Lady D, but Wesker in Smash would be hilarious now that I think about it

Curious about RPGs that keep their dungeons short.

Always hated dungeon crawls, so getting into JRPGs when FFVI, VII and VIII came out was pretty great. (Some of the later dungeons could get pretty long, but usually at least had good gimmicks.) Think the short dungeons are probably why I have so much warmth for Pokemon 1 too. Nowadays it feels like every JRPG is gonna put you in a series of tunnels with one texture set just to pad out the game because the art assets are so costly now.

Can't think of a good example with western RPGs. All the old Bioware classics were at their worst when it was boring dungeon time. No quests, no dialogue choices, few encounters with options or story. Just tunnels of monsters to hit and items to pick up. The slog of Kashyyk in KOTOR was particularly bad.

His final smash could involve trapping his opponent in a room with a crushing ceiling and inflicting grievous damage via awful dad jokes (the ceiling never actually comes down).

or he could do that ridiculous hurricane lariat from RE5

the rocket launcher has 4 barrels, yet we clearly see it fire at least 6 times, furthermore the text indicates 13 hits. Are we to believe this is some sort of magical rocket launcher?

The rocket impact and the explosion are both separate hits obviously, you’d know this if you paid attention in physics class

For a lot of Atelier games the "dungeons" tend to be pretty short and usually few in number depending on the title.

It's viral marketing, they want to give gamers the experience of making a bad choice and then having it get erased, leaving only a memory.

Little Inferno is getting holiday dlc soon

It's not the longest time between a game releasing and a game getting dlc but it made me wonder, what is the longest wait between game release and dlc release? I'm guessing Age of Empires 2 but even then there are probably others I'm not aware of. I'm not counting when a game gets rereleased and has new content for the rerelease.
