Er. No thanks. Save the 'alternative gamplay' for the spin-offs.
Ah, well. I really don't have any problems with that. xD
Trying to balance everyone's suggestings, I imagine if GF took the time to consider each one, they wouldn't have enough time to actually get the games done.
I wouldn't mind a long break between games if it means there's a chance the newest game could be really good/better than the previous ones. But, then again, they wouldn't ever really listen to us anyways.
Yeah like I said, "unless they added another feature that work similarly that they could nerd rage over", which they most likely would. Just plain removing EVs and IVs or replacing it with a system far less deep would probably result in Gen IV being used more for competitive battling. Who knows though.
And I guess the glitches in SSB wasn't the best example, though they also complain about the battle mechanics being different in Brawl as well, with the game being more "floaty" as they put it, and different mechanics working somewhat different. So SSB still works as an example.
Oh, wow, I must of missed that. My bad.
Yeah, that's a better example.
Though, fans complain about Brawl over the silliest reasons, with the only good reason being that it takes a little too long to load. I think competitive players just have gotten too used to Melee and with Brawl being different it doesn't allow them to abuse like they used to. And they don't want to try to learn how to play competitively in Brawl. Then, there's the casual fans that complain about Brawl being too much of the same as Melee...
There's just no winning with a really diverse fanbase. Fans would always complain about something.
