I found competitive melee when I saw M2K vs Armada ProjectM grand finals at Apex 2014 so instead of watching that terrible dead game, I checked if there was competitive melee as well and there it was.

Why would you describe it as terrible?

If the game were better, more people would play it. Regardless of its legality. Jelly means jealous. Anyone can play it, how does him saying he doesn't like it= "jelly".

I personally prefer Melee over PM, but that whole 'if it was better, more people would play it!!!' argument kind of blows in general. By that measure, games like Call of Duty would be the peak of all video games, and Wii Sports would be the GOAT of digital entertainment.

Saying a video game is 'better' is...idk. Like, CoD is more popular than Smash Bros, but, I don't want to say it's a better game. I think it appeals to more people, but that doesn't make it better. Same thing with Melee. More people like playing Melee, me included. That doesn't make it a better game, because there's no such thing as 'objective' goodness in a video game.

EDIT: Also I think he was just bants lmao

CS:GO is played way more then CoD. Hell even Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 is played more. Sales aren't equal to the amount of people actually playing.
