So, anyway, Oblivion, thank you for fully taking the bait on my not-even-veiled troll thread. Just, GG
To be fair, I would not be surprised if the guy who is really good at OldGame does not like the changes made to NewGame. If it means that he has to learn new things and that someone else might get an advantage over him by adapting to the new stuff better, then, of course, he will not like it.
Replace ShaqFu with Mortal Kombat II.
Just because someone really likes one game and is good at it, that doesn't make them an expert on another... Even more so when, more relevant to my original comparison than yours, the new game is poised to remove the game that is this guy's bread and butter from common rotation.
Not saying he's right or he's wrong - just that his opinion isn't what is going to decide the future of this game.
Sorry for just posting "no" before, since I was in a hurry. I actually really want to sperg out at length about where you're going with this.
Like, you're making some unsupported assumptions that are pretty much the opposite of reality. Top fighting game players are the top players *because* of their ability to adapt to situations
and multiple games (also their ability to read people, execute under pressure and all those other things). FG players need and crave new releases to keep their scene alive. And, most of all, they need those releases to be good and fun.
So, saying Smash Wii U is going to take away this guy's bread 'n butter is absurd. He's probably going to rake in a ton of money blowing people up in this game that he will hate playing until the tournament scene shrivels up and dies like Brawl's did.
Thank you for posting, please scratch off here to see if you've won a prize!
MK2 is competitively garbage, and people still play ST tournamentsTJ Spyke was trying to make the exact same points on the way to his Worst Poster Ever blaze of glory. You don't want to be TJ Spyke.Don't let M2K sleep in your house
