Platform brawler

short answer: no
long answer: no

>"Look, mom! i'm about to bait an entire board!"

yes

you control a character fighting another player controlled character

ergo its a fighting game

shit meme , I hate you guys so much and I don't even play this garbage

Is splatoon a fps?
Is diddy kong racing a driving simulator?

so is 1v1 quake a fighting game

Who fucking cares, people will know what you mean either way.

nice try, have a (You)

I hate you user for perpetuating this nonsense.

So overwatch and every multiplayer game is a fightan game.

Like banjo tooie. It should be at evo

Real good my dude, you sure got him

You deserve like ten (You)s for that one, guy

Real proud of you

DELETE THIS YOU CANCEROUS MELEE AUTIST REEEEEE

>Is diddy kong racing a driving simulator?
Yes

yes

tr4sh is not

It doesn't rip off Street Fighter II's format, so fucking what?
Do characters fight each other? then yes it is a fighting game

a fighting game is a 1v1 game on a 2d or 3d plane with health bars where you bring your opponents health to 0 and win the round, normal moves/special moves with more complex inputs, combos either chained or linked, soft or hard knockdowns which allow you to set up some kind of high low throw mixup, and runs at 60fps

i personally think ringouts are a fucking gay win condition which is why i dislike smash and by extension soul calibur, but soul calibur is still a fighting game and smash is not

> is a platformer a best em up?

I hate melee fans so much, delete this

It belongs to some subgenre of fighting games.

Afaik a non-named one because there's 5 games in, 4 from 1 franchise.

Kek'd

no it's some sort of multiplayer online battle arena

Yes, it isn't a traditional fighting game but a fighting game nonetheless.

>why i dislike smash and by extension soul calibur
>but soul calibur is still a fighting game and smash is not

Sub-genres? No, no! My tiny brain can not handle this concept! I must autistically rage about how Smash can't be a fighter now because someone else told me so!

Glad you are not a retard like those people.
Look up Platform Fighters, pretty decent list of examples friend. Smash obviously being the biggest one.

>Do characters fight each other?

Isn't LoL, DotA, Overwatch and WoW technically fighting games then?

No. I'd rather not be associated with fgccucks. Melee is better than fighting games.

this

good job you ignored 70% of my post to fit your narrative

really showing off the maturity of the smash community

>1v1
MUGEN is a fighting game engine and can be played 2v2. Does it cease to be a fighting game when you play it like that, despite everything else being the same?
>with health bars
Not Bushido Blade, or a good amount of pre-SFII stuff actually
>where you bring your opponents health to 0 and win the round
See above, also Vampire Savior has a system very similar to Smash's
>normal moves/special moves with more complex inputs, combos either chained or linked, soft or hard
If you got rid of special moves, would SFII cease to be a fighting game?

t. guy who vastly prefers traditional fightanswe to Smash

>Bushido Blade
that game was pretty based, I used to love tricking my friends into committing sudoku whenever they played it for the first time

Good thing that 70% was 100% a narrative you pulled out of your ass. I let someone else explain why you are a retard.

baited

Pretending to be retarded is just called being retarded. If nobody calls you retarded, some poor, uninformed person might believe your retardation, and the problem continues.

This

You attack each other with punches, kicks and melee weapons on a 2d plane. Its a fighting game.
