I'm a pretty hardcore gamer. Doom, GTA, Undertale, you name it, I play it. Thing is, I haven't played many fighting games. I have tried a few like Mortal Kombat and Soul Calibur, but they have been real brutal to learn. I want to try again and I figure since I have such a large Amiibo collection (as you know I'm a huge Amiibo collector) I should try Smash Bros. It seems pretty hardcore, but I just want to make sure it counts before I invest any time.

There's gloom and fear in my heart when a culture fades; I drip a tear for the art and I adulterate.

I don't know why people keep arguing about it. I've always been of the mindset that it is both a fighting game and a party game. I don't feel like the two are mutually exclusive.

I like to think I'm pretty good at the Souls series, played them recently. Does that mean I should be pretty solid at fighting games now?

No, because nothing you learn in smash or souls PvP carries over to actual fighters

It's a party game, not a traditional fighter. Kind of like Mario Kart as a racer. Kart skills won't transfer to GT.

Sorry, "fighting games" have to have button combinations that are hard to remember and don't work half the time.

2 Smash games are at Evo again. One of them is like 17 years old and still has a very hyped and dedicated following.

Bump for more opinions. I don't mean to be annoying, but I plan to lock myself away and neglect my wife, child and frog to learn this game. I want to be able to dominate any of you people.
