Play the game and try to not fall in love. Seriously.
Melee is a ton of fun as a "party game", and the most mechanically deep game you will ever experiment in a "competitive fighting game" level.
Once the game clicks, it's pretty hard to not get involved with the matches, playstyles, depth and so on

Damn you think people slowly losing interest in FG?
I was responding to one silly generalization with another.
I think his point was that every fighting game looks like people running around pushing buttons until you understand whats going on. It wasn't disrespectful lol.
I assume its because they don't want to catch Jigglypuff cooties.
That makes it less of a shitpost.

These top 8 Melee matches have been amazing.
I mean, isn't his comment addressed at a complaint that knows nothing about smash?
the whole elitist thing is such bullshit. It's okay to not like what other people like, just don't be a jerk about it.

That's actually pretty accurate haha
It's going up against LoL
As a Melee fan, I agree. I also like keeping S4 and Brawl at 2 stock, 64 at 4 stock. Basically a stock cut across the board. Too much potential for games to get drawn out imo.

we'll find out in 90mins
No, we're still pretty well on time so far (barring the finals starting late in the beginning of the day).
9pm CST, a little under 2 hours.
No way SFV gets delayed... right? I mean, it's gonna be airing on ESPN. I figured they have a schedule to keep.
Did Melee start on time at least?

Marvel pushed everything back

Not by the schedule in OP, hour back
Technically, no, because the stream didn't actually start MKX until 15-20 minutes after the scheduled time for it.

fuckin' called it, man
Two hours. When Melee finishes they usually do community awards which takes about half an hour
Well, on one end, "footsies" is a nebulous concept for casual observers of fighting games in general. On another, Melee is a lot more fast paced with it comes to spacing than most other games, so I can see why some would be lost.
But on another subject, holy shit mango
Oh shit I didn't know that.

Marvel started late because MKX started late. They haven't been on schedule at any point.

why would you taunt *smh*
Always amusing seeing people who know nothing about melee commenting about how it plays.
Last time I introduced it to someone they took all 4 of their own stocks by falling off stage. Its technical to the point where pros who have played it for over a decade still lose by suiciding off stage going for optimal recoveries or flubs.
perhaps the mentality of someone thats used to digital inputs, and not an analogue, physics based game.

M2K!
I think the biggest reason why people coming from other games see the Smash/Melee games as simple (boring?) games stems from the lack of depth of attacks themselves. Yes, there's a lot to perfect from positioning and reactions, but to the untrained eye you see spasmic movements and attack hits that look no different than "jabs" and follow up jabs to keep a juggle state or grabs. There isnt really a combo system, and that's what it probably comes down to when people get turned off by this style of game.

The irony....
Look, Melee top 8 is the event right now. I definitely appreciate the people that legitimately curious about Melee right now, but I dn't know why you're posting on GAF about this if you're gonna shitpost like youre on 4chan
It gets sorta old, if you can see what I'm saying
