Dude with guns - Yeah, super interesting.

Various fantasy races with access to every kind of melee weapon, magic and the insane abilities of shouts - No, this is boring.

If I can't have my dark elf running around in the jester outfit she jacked from Cicero, what's the point?

If it's not a vampire Argonian stealth/archer with an affinity for poisons then it's not my Dragonborn.

As someone who has put in way too much time in Skyrim, there are three types of character builds:

1. Stealth Archer
2. Eldritch Mage
3. Boring

I think if Dovahkiin got added, he/she would play like a mixture of Link and Robin, which sounds like a super fun character to me personally.

"When designing Dovahkiin, we tried to stay as true to the source material as possible. Because of this, all of their melee attacks feel weightless and terrible use."

Skyrim can recover especially well on stages like the Brawl Yoshi's Island. He can just repeatedly jump up the vertical surface until he's at the ledge.

Shouts are super cool, because they're chargeable and have a shit load of unique uses. That's not even including various weapons and magic. Sakurai would create an amazing character with all there is to work with.

I think Doom Slayer being a projectile heavy rush down character would be very interesting imo, which is how I'd assume they'd play based on Doom 2016

"When Dovahkiin is hit with a Smash attack, they fly extra far and have extra difficulty recovering. This is to better match the behavior of being swatted into the stratosphere by a frost giant and cartwheeling over Skyrim."

If this were psall stars I'd say dude with guns ain't interesting, but in Smash we don't have a character like that yet. Not saying Dragonborn isn't interesting but let's be real.

it always felt kind of weird to me that we got Skyworld as the first Kid Icarus stage instead of The Underworld because I'm pretty sure the vast majority of people who played Kid Icarus never made it out of The Underworld

In the context of Smash, yes. The only other characters that get close to what Doom Slayer are Samus and Mega Man, and those two are very aesthetically different.
I didn't mean to imply he isn't interesting, he'd be dope and I'd like him more than a ES rep, even though I'm a huge TES fan. I just think it's a bit disingenuous to say he's any more unique when it comes to a potential Smash moveset than Dovhakin, or that Dovhakin is a boring addition in comparison.
If this were psall stars I'd say dude with guns ain't interesting, but in Smash we don't have a character like that yet. Not saying Dragonborn isn't interesting but let's be real.
But we do have multiple very different projectile based characters, so it isn't like it's a totally unrepresented archetype.

Bayonetta literally has guns in her hands and on her feet and she's not a dude. Problem solved.

Not a single level in Doom 2016 is actually called Hell. Only one mission even mentions the world Hell and it's back on Mars lol
It would be fine.

give us Skyrim, Doomslayer, and Artorias. Hell, even throw Geno Dante and Seth from Street Fighter IV in there for good measure.

I would say Crash but sadly he's unlikely for obvious reasons

You can't even attempt to separate the art from the artist with Jeremy Soule, because he weaved his abuse and satisfaction with it into his music. What we thought to be blissful soundscapes were actually sadistic trophies of his victims all along.

Yeah, it's the fucking worst. The Morrowind theme is like top 5 for me and it's fucking ruined. I can't listen to it at all anymore.
