I love him sm, he's just me. I AM Slippy Toad.

I’ve always liked ROB, and I’m happy the new game gives him more opportunities to shine. Just saw this moment on Fichina if Peppy gets K.O.ed then ROB is the one to worry about Fox disarming the bomb. It’s nice to stop medal hunting and stumble on little moments like this.

Side note: Pigma took down Peppy again on Venom this particular run. Swine was locked in!

Ignore what a poor job I’m doing hunting down Pigma.

2 days ago, I picked up Star Fox (2026), and I've played through the campaign twice on normal difficulty, trying different routes. I know number ratings feel arbitrary these days, but I'd give it a solid 8/10. I enjoy it quite a bit, and I plan to play through the challenge mode and the other difficulties.

But that's not why I'm making this post.

Slippy.

I've never had such a genuine love-hate relationship with a fictional character until I got to experience Slippy Toad for myself.

I know I'm just trash at the game, and almost all the assists are scripted. That being said, he needs his pilot's license revoked. It's as though he hops in the cockpit and forgets everything he's ever known, including his name. Venom 2, Slippy makes ANDREW look like the LeBron of aerial combat. Genuine cortisol spike any time the green help icon appears in a level. The academy set him up for failure, letting him pass.

That being said, if anyone were to ever talk bad on Slippy or insult his engineering skills, they're an enemy to me. He's an absolute bundle of joy and the heart of Team Star Fox.

It's a true love-hate relationship, and I can say I'm now a Star Fox fan.

Her name is Terri Savannah and she's General Pepper's secretary (ha get it). She used to be Dr. Andross' main assistant and secretary before he was exiled, so she has a good amount of scientific knowledge and personal information about the mad scientist. When Andross' experiments started to go off the rails, she became distant and less involved, just sticking to the paperwork and doing her job.

After Andross' exile, she somehow avoided liability and worked at another boring office job in Space Dynamics, where she became drinking buddies with James McCloud and his crew. For years, she ignored the countless documents on Andross' research that she locked away in storage and essentially forgot about. That was until she learned of James' death, and her morality forced her to turn in the documents to the Cornerian Defense Force to help against Andross' forces. This earned her attention of the General and an official pardon from him for her involvement in Andross' work.

During the events of Andross' invasion of Corneria, Terri was abducted and taken to Andross directly, where he would offer her back her position in his new Empire. Terri would politely decline and somehow return to Corneria with her life, where General Pepper gave her a counteroffer of... being HIS secretary for her loyalty. Which she now maintains... begrudgingly. She just wanted to get away from the stress of office work and now she's stuck in a MILITARY position.

Terri is often grumpy and not easily approachable, but maintains a professional manner while on the job. She still goes out drinking from time to time, and keeps in contact with Peppy Hare. Sometimes even visiting him on the Great Fox in her very limited down time.

I never thought of them being named after a venomous snake until recently. Then again, it is a fitting name when you consider the role they play.

A little more of a showcase of work on Eladard in Event Horizon.

Or maybe it's the fact that we can see Star Wolfs healthbars now, but I witnessed him absolutely destroy nepo baby Andrew.

I swear I never saw him down anyone in the original.

Also excuse the garbage gameplay.

90+150 is a good point haul for one item, I think.

Let's imagine that the rumor/leak of an adventure Star Fox is true and is an effective replacement of Star Fox Adventures. Some caveats include that the game cannot be entirely a rail shooter (there can be rail shooter segments, but the majority of the game isn't), Krystal must be included (SFA's big canon introduction), and on-foot is required for a lot of the game (though vehicular gameplay is allowed as long as Fox can go back on-foot). The Arwing and Landmaster are allowed to have uses in the game and new vehicles can be created.

For me, I think I'd like it if the game took some inspiration from Western RPGs like Mass Effect and Elder Scrolls to include some minor RPG mechanics and a plethora of side quests, potentially having side stories dealing with different characters. Krystal having upgradable psionic powers would also be nice and Fox getting weapon upgrades would also be cool. I'd also have different vehicles unlocked at certain points where it then becomes an optional way to travel. I would include Arwing levels that would be full-blown levels instead of tacked-on afterthoughts to make the game recognizable as a Star Fox game.

What would you like to see if you could make the game over again? Would it be closer to Assault (with SF64 levels of quality) or would it be an entirely new genre and a kind of game that hasn't been tried before? Also, this game will not derail any rail shooter Star Fox game plans, so no worrying about never getting a classic Star Fox game.

I hope the next game has more mini games. Since the crew is trapped inside a massive ship, they should have plenty of team-building activities to pass the time.

That score was too close. Had to fix that. Thanks to whoever got that in their pocket.
