Melee and PM are fighting games. Smash 4 isn't. By Sakurai's own admission.

Smash 4 is simply shield grab and utilt to win, the game. It's more luck than skill in most cases. Deal is, a lot of the Smash 4 characters are very fun, they're just held back by a shit game. Compared to Melee/PM it's a huge step back mechanically.

I know you want to desperately cling to any sort of logical fallacy because you simply can't stand the thought of a game you hate (or a fanbase you hate) getting to be recognized into the FGC, but that's just how it is.

I don't really want to crush you, but if the only condition for EVO was popular games, then we'd have Tetris tourneys at EVO.

>>345236872
It's worse offline when you think about it. I have some friends who went to a couple tournaments with Smash, SFV, and other fighting games in it. Soon as Smash tourney is over, some people just straight up leave. Smash players have no interest in anything not smash. Some SF players stick around for shit like Guilty Gear or Mortal Kombat because they like the way the game looks or something.

Then you have the whole Melee crowd booing the Grand Finals of a GG tournament a while back. And then there's that whole thing with Jebailey not catering to asinine requests from autitic smash players.

If you want to call smash a fighting game, go right the fuck ahead. Just don't pretend they belong in the same fucking community because smash autists have proved time and time again that they have no interest in expanding their interests.

Better question

If we're already at the point that we allow not one, but two Smash games at EVO, why can't we have SF3 and MvC2 back in the line-up.
>>
>>345237352
Because the Generation Z don't what this is. and the vast majority that attend EVO are people younger than 25. Also because the competitive Tetris community is non-existent compared to the Smash bros community.
No-one would watch Tetris over a party game, party games are actually fun to watch.
>>
>>345237737
Because people don't wanna watch Tetris, and thus it wouldn't pull in money. Tetris also already has it's own tournaments.


Meanwhile Smash brings in lots of cash, and there is a slight overlap between player bases. Melee players also play SF and Guilty Gear, and Smash WiiU players also play Melee. That's why. You can stop being autistic now.

Most FGC fans are at eachother's throats about other games anyway. I've seen KI fans go after the MK fans.
Literally every other fan go after mahvel.

Alot of the top melee players and commentators like and play street fighter and other fitans.

Yeah.

I keep hearing that supposedly they weren't booing Guilty Gear, specifically. They were apparently booing because they were told that Melee was delayed. As far as I know, that could be people just covering their asses, but I don't know, given the circumstances, that would make sense.

I will say though, that some of the top players need to get their heads out of their asses, and the fucking top player dick-rider squads need to fuck off with their fanboy bullshit, or at the very least, tone that shit down.

who cares if melee is a "fighting game" ??

its an intense, high-skill cap 1v1 game, thats why its at evo

people dont watch street fighter and such because its a fight game, they watch because these games have high-skill players going head to head

and anyway even if you dont think smash fits into your narrow definition of "fighting game", it obviously has more in common with fighting games than it does with other competitive 1v1 games like starcraft
>>
>>345237879
Money. You guys just don't have enough. Melee got back in through the combined efforts of autists who wanted to play the game they loved at the same tournament it was featured in back in 07. Smash 4 was corrupted by sakurai's influence and HAL's lack of influence, so most melee players were not fooled by their leaders or top players switching over to support it. meanwhile, the other games in the FGC were getting sequels to their games pumped out like clockwork, so it became accepted to just rotate out their "old" and "broken" games for the newest version.

Melee may be "old" and "broken", but no one (unless you count PM which I do) has been able to "fix" it. Brawl and tr4sh were not proper sequels, and thus were never accepted by the melee community.

It just needs the Melee/PM physics, ledgegrabbing, and make shields recover much more slowly and suddenly 90% of the game is fixed.

Oh, also, nerf the fuck out of counters. Or, either nerf them, or make them DP inputs.

Part of the problem with Smash 4 is tgat the slow physics encourage campy play, and reward bad players, making the game more luck based than skill based.

If you add more defensive options in the for of better movement as you had in Melee, the game becomes less campy.

Also, a grab parry might be necessary due to the dominance of shield grabs to open combos (though if shields are beefed through slower recover, that problem is partially fixed), but also the previous dominance of chain grabbing.

The game can be fixed. People just need to not dicksuck PM or live in it's coattails.

If it's a big tournament, then you have to deal with top 100 players. Players in the top 100 and even out of the top 100 have been going nuts recently. Squid landed in top 8 in one of the socal events when all of socal's big players were there. Infinite numbers was a no name who suddenly got 9th at pound. Wizzy was 23 and around 10 spaces away from s2j, but he has beaten S2j in the ditto, as well as landed falcon in top 8 several times this year, scoring as high as 4th 3-0ing fucking Hbox.

Well, it was a regional, but Triple R landed kirby in top 8. Almost beat Esam too.

If we go by top 8, then it's luigi, falcon, peach, fox, falco, marth, samus, sheik, and pikachu

1000% this. I used to go to a venue near my old college with smash players that tried to include SFV and UNIEL. We had maybe 10-15 people show up for SFV and UNIEL. 70+ for smash. I never want to be in a room with smash players because I swear they never heard of deodorant or body wash. One of my friends knew a smash player who went to that venue and told me he would go A WEEK WITHOUT SHOWERING.

I'm convinced that top players like mew2king and Mango are normal people who know basic etiquette and hygiene and the rest of the community are unhygenic manchildren.

Yes. Smash is 格げー and fighting games are 対戦格闘. The genres are clearly defined but people refuse to accept it. Gundamn EXVS is not a fighting game but people still fight in it. That doesn't mean it's bad or that it shouldn't be played at Evo.

like i know since you dont like smash, it would make you happy to know that smash players have worse hygeine than your favorite game's fanbase but you have no evidence for this just confirmation bias and spite

the fact is competitive video game players are on a bit of a social fringe, normal people dont have the time or motivation to get really good at a video game, and that means you'll find slightly more autism and poor hygiene than the average group of people, no matter what game

I actually don't have a problem with M2K personally. I'm friends with him on Facebook, and he's pretty chill. Though his story is pretty gross. Still having legit autism makes it understandable.

Still though, the levels of autism st SWF are through the roof. It used to be a fairly chill hang out of like minded people and close friends, but now it's the worst. If you believe /v/'s levels of autism can compare you got another thing coming. At least /v/ is self aware, and pokes fun at stupidity. SWF encourages that safespaces hugbox nonsense, and it's full of dick sucking retards riding the balls of people with some sort of name to them. Especially the PM community holy fuck. Nanobuds and his fanboys are especially jarring.

Also, Zero. On here we can laugh at how he got fucked. Say that shit on SWF and not only do you get dozens of retards getting triggered saying it's none of your business. But you also get a ban from the mods.

If people don't like what you say, you get kicked from threads.

It's literally, be a hivemind who dicksuck the community, or fuck off.

The irony is that I was there before all the new fucks ruined the forum. But it's really bad now dude, bronies, and trannies, and literal children praising trash cartoon form 90% of discussions, and Nintendo is a saint who can do no wrong....
