[@vellichor7676]

I'm reminded of Nintendo's mindset in the Wii era. Everything was very casual, with an attempt to appeal to non-gamers and non-hardcore gamers. In a Nintendo Power interview, Sakurai was asked, "which character do you feel that you dominate with?" He refused to answer, saying that he didn't view Smash as a competitive game that should be taken seriously, but as a sort of goofy, Mario Party-esque game where you could go from winning to losing in a heartbeat based solely on chance. I think he imagined a group of people sitting around and laughing happily when they trip and die, not spiking their Gamecube controllers into the floor. Even with that kind of mentality, I'm flabbergasted that anyone would program tripping into the game. Balls out insane.

[@seven7een993]

I thought brawl is pretty ambitious with all the features it had, Maybe not a great competition game but it was a really fun smash bros game.

[@KombatGod]

Yeah the problem is these pro players who only think about the competition. Smash was never meant to be a competitive game, it was meant to be a party game! A very strategic game, more than a lot of fighting games actually (since the difficulty comes from knowing how each move works rather than the difficult in its input), but not a competitive one. In fact a large chunk of every game is always kept outside of tournaments, namely the items and most stages. Being unbalanced might even be part of the fun, because it's an extra challenge to play as Ganondorf, or to play against Meta Knight. And that should be the ultimate goal: fun. But nope these people just want to compete and feel special, and take this game so seriously that they end up looking like whiny children.

[@serglian8558]

Story is the best,an excellent redeeming quality. And metaknight is like an on command boss battle

[@Rhaemos]

@@KombatGod You're not being fair to competitive players, most of them just gave up the game after realising it wasn't competitively viable, and that's perfectly understandable, it's their livelihood. And no, imbalances are not fun, have you ever watched a competitive match of Brawl? The meta is so campy and dominated by a small part of the roster, that you don't even see enjoyable gameplay. Even if most people dislike brawl's gameplay, everyone acknowledges the great things it did for the franchise like Subspace, some of the mechanics, third parties, online etc. But when the core gameplay is bad, it's normal to be disappointed and to voice your concerns so that they don't also plague the next game. And they listened, Smash 4 is much more beloved by the smash community(ies).

[@KombatGod]

I don't have to be fair to people whose livelihood is playing games. If you say imbalances are not fun because they break competitive play then you're missing my point: competitive play is wrong and shouldn't be there in the first place! It's their fault for playing a party game competitively, they have nothing to complain about, they should just shut up and get a real job. Actually I just noticed: "The meta is so campy and dominated by a small part of the roster, that you don't even see enjoyable gameplay." You don't SEE enjoyable gameplay? Dude, you're not supposed to see gameplay, you're supposed to play it! Pleople these day watch games, instead of playing them, what is wrong with everybody?
