They shouldn't feel bad, look at Nintendo, their competitive games weren't even meant to be played that way but the community made it what it is. Same thing can happen to a Sony game in the future. |
Entirely true for Smash, but didn't Pokemon kinda become competitive from a bit of a positive feed-back loop born from motivating kids to want to compete as trainers in the first place. Psychic type animes forced kids to slave away in Pokemon's service till they grew up to be legitimate Pokemon Masters. - Speaking of Nintendo games needing luck to be competitive, I hope Splatoon does well despite its extreme surrealism.
Regardless your basic point is massively correct.
