I think the oddest part of this whole ordeal is that this isn't a kickstarter... It's just straight paypal donations. So if for some reason the community can't raise the money before EVO, then people have already given their money away.

1: Axe - YES! Finally seeing you in first for the first time in a while! Amazing matches, and I was so happy you took Kyle with your YL. :D 2: Wobbles - I know I said that you're the bane to my melee career, but honestly you help me more than anyone else. I'm gonna get there. I took a stock off...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nf9qVnxyFYE I definitely need work vs Falco... Not a lot of 'em in AZ. So if anyone could look past my awful tech mistakes and give me some real insight as to where I'm making critical errors, I'd be very grateful. Thanks a lot everyone!

Pretty much this.

Will do full shout outs later, but thanks a ton to 2jar for housing us, Team Oxy for the amazing event, and VGBC for the awesome stream. You guys put in a lot of work, and it shows. Shoutouts to the AZ Hype Train.

This is the problem. You CAN'T do that. You cannot create a logical premise as to why Brawl sucks. Because any point that could make (i.e. no shieldstun, dropping shield is faster than jumping oos, etc.) are all things that some players could prefer.

I don't like Brawl particularly. But that doesn't mean it's a bad game. That's not even the point I wanted to make with this whole thread. I just wanted to say that even though we don't like Brawl, that doesn't mean we should look down on their community. Everyone ran a different direction...

Okay then. So you saying you don't like Brawl, doesn't mean it isn't good.

I just don't understand why everyone compares everything to Melee. Why can't things be both good and different? If you can lead me to some conclusion about why a game HAD to be like Melee to be good, then I guess that's... Something. I just don't follow that logic.

So by that standard, other traditional fights such as SSF4 and UMVC3 are much worse than melee too, because they aren't NEARLY as deep? You're comparing Brawl to melee. Your qualifications for a good game seem to be: "Does this game have the same mechanics as SSBM?" or "Is this game as deep...

Obviously we just disagree. So oh well.

And there's no inherently bad mechanics in brawl (well, with the exception of tripping). Everything that you don't like, isn't BAD, it's YOU not liking it. Edit: And there isn't concrete evidence of what makes games good or bad. I love World of Warcraft for example. I played that game for 8...

What's your favorite color? Why is it your favorite color? Why is it better than other colors?

But that's just the thing, you don't HAVE to have reasons to dislike or like something. That's why their opinions. They're subject to every particular persons taste. I understand how it can be aggravating trying to 'debate' or 'convince' someone why your game is better when they refuse to raise...

While I agree with most of this post, I think you miss the point I was trying to make in OP. I'm not saying that we have to accept Brawl as a better game than it is (or you believe it is, because believe it or not, there WAS a small subset of players that when brawl came out, transferred...
