Raging Spaniard
If they are Dutch, upright and breathing they are more racist than your favorite player
Hi Anth0ny, don't be mad, now that I got you here.
I don't want to tell you how to play or what to do with your favorite game. I enjoyed melee a great deal, you know, ten or so years ago. However, I get the impression that the only time I hear about Melee nowadays is because the top players are complaining about lack of support or theres a new character specific exploit.
Thats obviously not a sign of a healthy scene. It seems like if you wanted to become a pro Melee player you wouldn't necessarily have to learn how to be good at Smash Bros, but rather learn how to break the game. Thats not something you see in other fighting games or competitive games much (granted, modern games have an active support system from devs so that bugs and exploits can be patched up)
So if Melee is your jam and me asking this question is making you angry ... what do you think should be the next move? I think continuing to explore what this game has to offer is only going to show more bugs and more exploits,, and I don't think that's a good way to bring in a bigger audience. If Nintendo was going to support the scene, they would probably make a Melee remaster for the Switch, but you know they would fix a lot of the exploits in the game, so ... do you want that? Do you like that only 2 or 3 players keep winning the big tournaments? Do you think I'm just overreacting and everything is fine and dandy?
