This is a serious question. Do you still legitimately enjoy playing this game? Over the last few weeks, I've been noticing that playing this game has caused more frustration than enjoyment. I'm finding it less and less fun getting smacked by disjointed hitboxes that are nowhere near the character model's body. It's becoming much less enjoyable jumping onto For Glory and having to keep fighting Cloud, Bayo, Ryu, Captain Falcon, Ganondorf, Mario, ZSS, and Link. As a matter of fact, every character in this game has at least one or two little quirks about them that are just so annoying to have to deal with. And I know that's the whole point of the game for each character to have unique traits and moves, but is having to deal with that still fun? Is getting uptilt by Mario still fun? Is getting spiked by ZSS at 50% still fun? Is having to deal with Cloud's ridiculous frame data and speed still fun? I know that some of the frustration with character match-ups gets leveled out at the higher level, but the large majority of people who play this game have work, school, and other interests that leave us no time to sit and practice SDI'ing out of Bayo's combos all day.
I know I sound like I'm just complaining and not "gitting gud" but its gotten to the point where even winning doesn't give me that satisfaction anymore. I win games online on For Glory or over wifi with my friends but the fun just seems to be lacking. It was a ton of fun in the beginning but now playing this game just feels like a frustrating chore.
You might think I'm just mad at the game and don't see where I'm coming from with this. I ask that you at least think about this question. Are you having fun playing Smash 4 or are you having fun because you're competing in a fighting game? Is it actually Smash 4 that's giving you enjoyment or are you just having fun winning and getting better at something?
Let me know your thoughts and opinions. There's no way I'm the only one that thinks this game is losing its fun value.
