It has a competitive online mode and while it's still designed as a party game Nintendo actually bothered doing balancing based on no items 1v1 and poo poo. It's just that it's not Melee and unlike Capcom games there's cash in the old-rear end game still.

Smash 4 had the second highest entrants in the tournament iirc and also has lower player crossover than any other two games in Evo, because the skillsets don't transfer at all between games. Since Tekken is before Smash and SFV, this is my future "confused" post when people that don't like either still post about it when Tekken's done.

C.

And I don't think the playerbase is at all related to this either. If you were going to get into Melee or not, I don't actually think Stock/Timer issues are the barriers that would be in the way (like, say, Technology issues or general High Skill gap would be). C. Everett Koop posted:Considering how apprehensive Melee was towards Brawl/4 I could see even a re-release being rejected over flaws real or perceived, meaning CRT/Gamecube Melee is the only True Melee and anything else is an impostor. New blood coming in to shake up the pecking order might also do it but I'm not holding my breath there. We can already see this in the FGC too, with something like the MVC2 360/PS3 port being weird so some mvc2 players didn't want to play on it.

Tae posted:If Marvel was big enough to support 4k people across both games, it would've stayed. I don't think anyone was trying to make argument MvC2 should be around just cause melee is. I was just making the point Melee's staying power is incredibly different from Marvel's was. I don't think the fact the same six people win everything is discouraging melee fans. Marvel fans are fighting game fans, marvel is just their favorite flavor of fighting game. Melee fans are exclusively Melee fans where they just want the exact same game forever.

If you were going to get into Melee or not, I don't actually think Stock/Timer issues are the barriers that would be in the way (like, say, Technology issues or general High Skill gap would be). In terms of playerbase or viewerbase I'm talking about both kinda. It may be that Melee has more in common with European soccer than anything else where the top teams are expected to win every year and it's unacceptable when they don't and someone like a Leicester winning isn't seen as a breath of fresh air but a glitch in the system. As for viewership it may be not be rapidly declining but I don't think it's growing; the die-hards are always going to watch but unless some huge catalyst happens, like when Melee came back to EVO, I don't see how viewership grows, meaning it'll gradually decline vs. a rapid one. If you were hellbent on getting new blood into the scene the reduced stocks/time for variance would be the one change within the communities control, but as we've noted they like having the same names on top and aren't clamoring for someone new. If anything I'm sure they'd like to go even longer and eliminate even more variance but that leads to other issues. quote:We can already see this in the FGC too, with something like the MVC2 360/PS3 port being weird so some mvc2 players didn't want to play on it. And the HD Remix/Switch Street Fighter were Super Turbo except not really so they've been cast aside like redheaded stepchildren. A Switch Melee re-release would have to be untouched and even then if there was any additional lag or change in control it would be rejected out of hand. They've been playing their way for over a decade now, they're not going to change if they aren't forced to.

I don't know why people are obsessed that players have to move on to the new game. If MvC2 and MvC Infinite had the same high popularity and money support, would you still yell at MvC2 players to move on to MvC Infinite? Why can't they just keep playing mvc2, a game they like?

One is a million years old and pretty figured out and the other isn't? How is that hard to understand. I played Pokemon Red however many years ago. It was a great game but I never want to see or play it again.

FZeroRacer posted:so then people would've migrated onto brawl (A lovely Game) because they moved onto smash 3 prior. What I'm trying to say, hoping against hope you can actually parse it, is that the reason why Melee has lasted this long is that Nintendo - the only dudes offering an alternative to Smash-style games - botched their first attempt to transition SUPER HARD and intentionally. Smash 4 came way too late for the community to actually transition. You motherfuckers can jerk off into your CRTs forever, I don't give a drat, but most games without an equivalent build up a long-lasting scene.

basically the smash community hasn't so much stuck to their guns as they got handed a jammed trebuchet to replace it, rightfully threw it away and 15 years later got a new gun but they have no incentive to change by now

some people might not be aware of this but, in melee, when you jump from the ground your jump preserves your ground momentum. if you were running you jump farther and faster than if you were walking. that isn't true of brawl/smash4. the very simple act of jumping is wildly different in feel and result between the games.
