I am sure that all of those people who are "disrespecting Sakurai" are surely eternally grateful to him for creating this franchise, but at the same time they don't have to like everything he's done to it. I don't believe they're disrespecting him if they don't like the fact that he hasn't included Ridley in the game, or would like to see someone else take over as director of the game. I mean, it's hard to say. They appreciate everything he's done, but at the same time they just want to see the series go in a different direction.Sakurai is Smash. The series owes everything to him. Everything. EVERYTHING.
The disrespect of Sakurai is incredible and repulsive. He has devoted large portions of his life to create these masterpieces of game design. He wants people to love his games and have fun playing them. That's all! Believe it or not, Sakurai wants you to have fun! It is the penultimate goal. And all people can do is whine and whine and whine about the one thing he didn't include. All I hear is: "Me, me, me, me, me." It's disrespectful of the one person who matters THE MOST in the WHOLE WORLD when it comes to SMASH. Without Sakurai, Smash Boards would not exist. Smash would not exist. The entire notion of a Smash-like game would not exist. He has worked, so so so incredibly hard to give this game to us. Probably harder than most people work towards any one dream in their lifetimes. And to degrade him? It's looking a gift horse in the mouth and then punching the guy that gave it to you. It's classless. It's horrible. It's borderline sociopathic. Just stop it people. Stop.
All in all, I'm just bugged because I really do think they could make Ridley work.
