The Death of Competitive Gaming -- The Average Gamer?

[GMhyprid]

as long as there are choices tied with each button press, those button presses will not be unnecessary. I cannot believe there is still discussion going on about L-cancelling after my last post. You guys must have missed it.

I have to agree that L-canceling isn't very important to discuss at this point. On the topic of average gamers:

- L-canceling does not affect accessibility to smash. Melee is one of the most easy-to-pick-up and accessible fighting games when it still has L-canceling.

- L-canceling's existence alone will not make the difference between a person being a competitive gamer or not. Anyone who decides to stop serious gaming over something relatively easy like L-canceling was never a competitive gamer in the first place.

Accessibility was not a problem with Melee. As I said earlier, showing that gaming (Melee in particular) is a worthwhile form of competition is the far more important issue.

Thats merely an assumption. If knowledge was all you needed to be good at the game then I would just lurk SWF and go win tourneys.

Better players are better because they can correctly implement that knowledge.

Often ppl who study sports stats(professional statisticians) will know more than the players. But they probably couldnt beat a single one(even if you ignore the physical ability difference) They just lack exp.

This argument isnt really about implementing anything, only whether technical barriers add depth vs being mindless and only add difficulty that raises the initial skill requirement. You dont need to be a pro smasher, you not an idiot.

then just replace 'experienced players' with 'pros'

that should do the trick

Nah it would be too easy. To control the character I mean. I would rather use my hands, since I am used to it.

Quoting this as evidence that not everyone wants the same ideal set of controls. Some people like using their fingers more than the might otherwise have to.

No cause some people like using whats best for the task... others keep using their fingers.

I think we should play Melee with pause on and pause whenever we need time to think of a strategy or need help executing something, because choices are the only thing that matter and this will help us get rid of needless technical barriers disabling us from playing this game to our full potential.
