My brother and I often play Smash together, but we realized something weird about it. My bro put it best: "It's weird how a game meant to celebrate games does so by making the characters fight each other." Kinda hard to show love for games when you're beating the snot out of them.
That got me thinking about what Smash would be like if it didn't have fighting. We've already seen what a platform fighter without crossovers would look like (Rivals of Aether, for example) so I wonder what the inverse would be. A game that has every IP in Smash, but is not a fighting game in any way. What genre would it be? Would it have a story with a central protagonist? I realized the best thing to do is let the fanbase take over! What do you think Smash would be without the fighting?
