I have played all 3 smash bros and my least favorite is melee(i like all i just dont like melee like brawl or 64)
In melee the weight is over expressed (roy falls like a rock, ganon no words ,and cpt falcon is pretty heavy ,dr mario falls fast)
using certain side B's to grab a ledge gets me killed instad of holding the ledge
the cpus spam (I.E. bowser over used fire breath ganons up b pikachu's down and neutral B ect.)
and on a unrelated note melee brang the worst smash stage temple(Zelda)

Different people like different games. There's nothing wrong with not liking any particular game, even if it's one that's very popular.

New smashboards member is mad that he/she can't play melee because of complexity of advanced techs.

If you can't see why Melee is so good, you probably will never know why it is so good, and thus it is kind of fruitless to tell why it is so good, because the people who play Melee like it because it is Melee.

 

[frotaz37]

Sounds like the dude played 1 free for all with 3 cpu fast fallers on Hyrule and then decided melee was bad.

Wow.

For this explanation alone, is likely to be the sole reason Brawl's sales dwarf Melee's sales.

And I enjoyed Melee.

 

[frotaz37]

It probably has more to do with the Wii selling over four times as many consoles as the Gamecube.

 

[link2702]

wel you know...maybe if you actually played against real people instead of just cpu's you might understand why melee is a hell of alot better.

 

[Alien Vision]

^ That is an opinion though.

So either way, your opposition is futile!

''Every answer is just another question to another person in this world''.

''We all live in the same world in a different mind''.

How many times do I have to say this?

 

[frotaz37]

Of course it's an opinion, what else would it be?
He even said "maybe" and "might", so it's actually not opinion, it's fact.

Unless you are saying it's impossible for the OP to like melee more after playing against people...but you'd have to be dumb to say that, because anything is possible. All he did was state a possible possibility.

So nothing you posted is relevant at all.
This is why people don't like you.

 

[Alien Vision]

The way he used ''might'' wasn't as in ''a possibility''. Besides, he said ''might understand'' which means that he only gave a possibility to the idea of understanding ''why'' melee is a ''hell of alot better''. That's two seperate layers, while the one I speak of isn't a possibility. He said it as fact, when it's an opinion.

It was that sarcastic ''might'', anyways. Which is implying that melee is ''a hell of alot better''.

Which means: It's not entirely true to everyone else, thus it's an opinion.

Just like ''people not liking me''.

Wait a minute.. You do know I directed that towards Link, right? (Just making sure..)

None? We're trying to argue over video games and you're saying vague pretentious nonsense.

Anyways, melee has much more freedom with it's movement. It's combo system is very deep with techchases and DI, and recoveries being bad makes stage control more important. The game is balanced to be offensive and not campy like brawl.

 

[frotaz37]

Yeah but you're not understanding that everyone knows it's his opinion before you come in here and start posting lame quotes.

There is absolutely zero substance in what you posted. Nobody likes the guy who comes in and says "well that's just your OPINION" when it so obviously is an opinion in the first place. It doesn't matter how he stated it, it's just so obviously an opinion that I shouldn't even have to explain this.

 

[Alien Vision]

I felt like saying it. So what?

I see people say a whole bunch of stuff that is actually irrelevant BS everyday.

So why are you making me the enemy again? Why are you even making a big deal out of this? You are doing exactly what I did. Making something out of nothing.

I'm guessing we both are on fair grounds now, eh?

 

[Zankoku]

I think the difference is that you do this repeatedly.

 

[Alien Vision]

I admit. I have a problem with making something out of nothing.

I already talked to Teran about it. Sometimes decent ideas come out of this BS that I pull, so expect to see it alot.

Atleast it HAS something to do with the thread, it just isn't neccessary all of the time.

 

[Elyssa Xey Hexen]

I think this is the part where someone should try converting people to melee.

 

[nLiM8d]

It probably has more to do with the Wii selling over four times as many consoles as the Gamecube.

I could see that, although a purchase of a Wii does not equal a purchase of Brawl.

I don't quite understand why the concern has to jump so radically to this point.
Instead of fussing over the plausibility of how certain words were used, how about giving Alex6309 some insight as to why Melee is hyped to the standard that it is about those who praise it?

I missed you [TL?]

Lol, perfect timing.

 

[Crooked Crow]

Go play against real people. Don't use your opinion as fact.

I like Temple occasionally, when I want long matches with friends. All playing doesn't have to be serious

 

[Rob_Gambino]

Brawl sold so many copies because melee was so great, thus people expected brawl to be great too. In melee, all the characters fall like rocks and, and throws don't kill. It's obviously a terrible game.

People love the fast pace of the melee and the freedom the advanced techs give with the characters' movement, allowing many different styles of play to be effective. It also has a perfect balance of combo ability and evading combos. Brawl is kind of a big rock paper scissors game, while in N64 you hit someone once and they die, even if they shield the attack.

 

[Firus]

The fact of the matter is that you're not missing what's good about Melee; it's that you don't enjoy what everyone who likes Melee does. Melee's falling speeds seemed 100% normal to me before Brawl, honestly, and I hate how slow and floaty Brawl is. If you LIKE slower and floaty, that's fine, it just means Melee isn't a game you enjoy. Same thing goes for ledges; I like that you have to do more than get within three feet of the ledge to recover, but maybe you don't like the more precise ledges of Melee. And I think Mario Bros. and 75m are far worse than Temple.

So again, you're not missing anything, you simply don't enjoy what the game has to offer.

I like how every here basically came in here and accused the OP of being a mindless scrub probably before most of them even read his post, and then there's AV's crazy misplaced philosophical nonsense.

Oh no, someone has different interests, let's flame the **** out of him because we don't need no community.

Atleast it HAS something to do with the thread, it just isn't neccessary all of the time.

**At all.

 

[rhan]

It's not Brawl.


That's the best reason right there.

 

[Alien Vision]

I love you too, Spelt.

Spelt for President.

I was hoping the OP's criticism was more constructive. That's all.

 

[Pachinkosam]

am sad that melee need more better recovery it such horrible PLEASE VISIT AND POST MY BLOG SMASHPROZ IT SO DEAD

 

[.Chipmunk.]

First of all, let me say that I am a huge melee fan. I'm also a brawl fan, but not in the same way. I enjoy playing brawl casually. Brawl is that game that you can just pick up and play with your friends and there is enough back and forth that they don't want to quit playing right away, etc. Brawl also led me to melee if you can believe it, so it holds a special place in my heart. (I'm also that gamer that plays games for every single reason out there, so I like almost all games.)

I can understand not liking melee. It's highly complicated, and actually highly balanced but it takes great amounts of skill to be good at it. More skill than brawl at this stage in brawl's lifespan (just remember how long it took for melee to progress this far. I still believe that there is untapped brawl potential). Oh, brawl also brought us music and texture hacks, which are ****. Anyway, back to melee. I just want to take a moment to talk about what melee did for the smash franchise as a whole over how great a game it actually is. Melee was the biggest leap forward in the series, and, if you take a look at the numbers, is arguably the third biggest reason people even purchased the wii (behind new game mechanics and wii fit). Brawl's hype was all because of how -good- melee was, and many people purchased the wii solely to be able to play brawl (online with friends? who wouldnt? Also another reason I enjoy brawl. Can be by yourself and still play with others) Sure, when you compare the games there will always be haters, but looking at the franchise as a whole, you have to like melee for the simple fact that it has done so much for Nintendo and what it continues to do for them.

I'm sure all this sounded much better in my head and I probably skipped something I meant to say, but I hope you understand my point.

No one called him a mindless scrub but you. People really haven't flamed the crap out of him either, but rather they've trolled him cuz it's a dumb and pointless and blog. "Hi everybody, I like grapes, but I don't like apples. I don't get it." I like how you come in accuse and generalize everyone that you don't even know, so you flame the crap out of everyone because you want everyone to hate you.

[¯\_S.(ツ).L.I.D._/¯]

From a casual perspective, I can see why you'd think Brawl or 64 is superior to Melee, but I think if you played Brawl and Melee both competitively for a while you'd disagree with the opinion you have presently.

 

[nLiM8d]

Wait a minute, did he say that Brawl/64 was superior to melee? Isn't that a little extreme?

 

[Spelt]

64 is superior to melee.

 

[Shorts]

It's your opinion, and it's fun to have one and all but. . .

I want some reasoning. Personally, I think the levels, characters, physics, and gameplay of Melee blow Brawl out of the water. Brawl's character choices are cool, the levels are. . . meh. The physics and gameplay. . . . me no like.
