Also I forgot to add these e sports fags hate randomness and only play the most boring levels that are perfectly even with no items. Well if you were actually skilled randomness would be a good thing because you could overcome the negative randomness that happens to you. I really think they should bring back that random tripping mechanic in brawl. That takes actual skill to deal with

I only play ridley and spam the move where you grind niggers against the pavement because it's really fun and I don't care what other people say

I forgot which Halo game was it, but they designed it to be as "esports friendly as possible" and people said that game sucked ass.

Reach?

>>70369
Wasn't that infinite?

>>70351 (OP)
>“balance”
Also known as "make only 4 characters/weapons usable and less than 10 strategies viable". There's keeping things from being broken, and then there are esports faggots that want to strip mine the game until almost nothing is left.

5 and Infinite. 5 still has a handful of fags that say they like it, but they hate Halo to begin with and it shows. Infinite was propped up by shills and still died quickly.

Reach had terrible balance and barely kept a pvp fanbase for a year and a half. 4 took it a few steps further and was so bad almost everyone left the game within 6 months.

TF2 players are pissed to this day about the changes Valve made to the game in the name of competitive.

From what I've seen its an absolute waste of time to try to please comp players. I play hoi4, and basically every comp game is modded and rulecucked to the point that the game is barely recognisable. Any change to please the competitive players is worthless if it even slightly detracts from casual play, as they won't give a shit as they will mod it to be the way they want, and ban the rest through rules.


>based Nintendo
Jap game companies are impressive in how spiritually jewish they all are. At least their consoles are better than microcuck and have games doebeit geg.

I personally find smash bros a bit too competitive for a party game, even brawl. Its not a fault of the game, its just that all fighting games are like that. If one person has spent a gorillion hours on it they will curbstomp their friends and its no fun.

Mario kart is gemmy for party gaming doe. Give everyone a controller and they can all have fun if they've played for like 2 hours before in their lives. I sweat single player mario kart wii but thats just because I love the mechanic feel of the game, its still plenty of fun to play with my younger sister and the items mean that she has a rare chance to beat me. Also racing games are inherently better fitted to a party game role as you can do well independently of the other players doing well by being in front of the bots, while fighting games are too direct where if one person wins, the other necessarily loses.

Merio Kart DS are more gooderful. Bigly.

>>70399
Don't worry I play that as well. I grew up with wii and prefer the tighter drifting on the select motorbikes, nintendo has never brought it back for some reason.

Mario kart DS is probably my 2nd favourite, and Super circuit would be my 3rd. People hate the game so much for being Mode 7 but its still very pretty and you have the entirety of the SNES track selection as unlockables, so it has an absolute heap of content. I wouldn't recommend playing at more than 50cc doe because it gets slippery in feel.
