s0nicfan posted...This would be a hell of a lot easier to resolve if the people who say SSB isn't a fighting game bothered to define what makes a fighting game. I was being generous, because in a debate the first person to define a term cements that definition for the remainder of the debate. The alternative is I (or someone else) presents what they think and you endlessly say "no, that's not right" because that definition would by its very nature include SSB. --- "History Is Much Like An Endless Waltz.

I don't think game genres should be classified by rigid definitions because the evolution of game mechanics often involves pushing boundaries of genre traditions.
Smash attempts this, creating a new subgenre of action games as a result. It plays nothing like fighting games and its creators (Sakurai, Harada, etc) don't consider it one. ... Copied to Clipboard!

So just to confirm, you're NOT going to provide a counter-definition, therefore we're going with mine?
Seriously, if you can't even agree to define the genre, attempting to classify something as IN or OUT is a waste of time. --- "History Is Much Like An Endless Waltz. The Three Beats Of War, Peace And Revolution Continue On Forever." - Gundam Wing: Endless Waltz ... Copied to Clipboard!

Your response is literally to say that "I don't think game genres should be classified by rigid definitions". Outside of some sort of structure, you can endlessly claim SSB isn't a fighting game "because reasons". You say "it plays nothing like fighting games" but refuse to say what fighting games play like. --- "History Is Much Like An Endless Waltz.

He wants to develop a fighting game containing characters from every fighting game franchise that was popular in the 80s and 90s "or maybe even toward the 2000s," he says. This wouldn't be a party game like Smash Bros., but a traditional fighting game with characters from Capcom, Sega, Koei Tecmo, SNK, Warner Bros, Data East, etc. https://www.polygon.com/a/life-in-japan/Harada-Summer-Lesson ...

It's a party game first, he makes that clear. Well hold on. "It's a party game first" and "It's not a fighting game at all" are two totally different mutually exclusive sentences. If you're accepting that it's a FG by Harada's own words, but would rather debate whether it's a party game FIRST we can do that, but if you're still claiming it's not a FG at all then you're still going to have to prove him wrong. --- "History Is Much Like An Endless Waltz.

Congrats. I've never had someone fail so spectacularly at making an argument. Not only did you fail to provide a definition of what makes a fighting game, AND claim my definition was too vague, you then followed it up by claiming its impossible to define the genre, AND THEN claimed Harada was proof it wasn't, forcing you to double-back when he himself said it WAS a fighting game. Literally everything you've said and done is like a textbook example for how to fuck up an argument. I'm actually impressed. I accept your resignation, though.

Literally everything you've said and done is like a textbook example for how to fuck up an argument. I'm actually impressed. I accept your resignation, though. There are fighting games that skirt definitions in all traditional senses by experimenting with game mechanics. Rigid definitions don't work well for the genre at all. You immediately ignored another source where Harada called it a party game flat out without saying it's a fighting game. Anyone that's even moderately adept at fighting games knows Smash doesn't belong to the genre. Smash players should embrace that fact rather than try to be included at the big boys table. ...
