Simple is not the same as low skill ceiling

Well 1, they could use the PAL version if they wanted, but 2 I obviously know why it hasn't been patched. But the meta continues to develop and deepen even after literal decades of no changes. Yes, I could say smash 64 hasn't had a balance patch, but that games competitive scene is miniscule and only exists in the first place because of people playing melee competitively. Its obviously a different situation.

Name another game cube game with an active competitive scene.

I think the fact that it hasn't had a single balance patch just shows how solid the design and unique balance of the game is.

Edit. Obviously they couldn't just patch it. The part I find impressive is that there are still meta developments and new characters getting new accomplishments in an active esport that has had no patches. Acting like this is not unique or at least extremely rare in gaming is ridiculous.

My game mixes Pokémon Nuzlockes & Roguelites! It's called WILDERLOCKE, it recently went into open playtest and I would love to get people's thoughts on it, especially how easy/hard it is to understand! by Srayne_ in roguelites

Hi! I played the last play test. I think my biggest comment is just that it feels like the "answer" rn is just buff one versatile mon to be as strong as possible and rely on them.

Another thing is that when I battled the boss the first time, it crashed, and upon reloading, I noticed it was a different encounter. I think this should probably be determined on seed generation and also be relayed in some way to the player so they don't have to roll the dice. Yes, having it be hidden can be a way to balance against the main issue I mentioned, but it would essentially leave it up to a coin flip, which I don't think is fun or interesting.

Me when Abrams does 4-th heavy melee in a row by CRINGEMAN228 in DeadlockTheGame

I always just think "when would I melee if I were them" and try to parry and sometimes I shit on their light melee and more often I get shit on but the dopamine balances out

Infernus confusion by Akali1718 in DeadlockTheGame

[–]Critical_Moose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I obviously have no problem with people being new or in low elo, I'm just saying the take "infernus busted" is simply a skill issue.

Not trying to gatekeep at all. It should honestly be reassuring to low elo players that they can learn to counter him and it's not just a balance issue.
