>>47528947Fuck showdown servers over a proper ingame battle area. It does nothing but restrict freedom and make it more difficult to play the game. I despise other people interfering with my ability to play the game.
It creates a hard online dependency in order to play game. Internet down or bad? No game.
It creates a hard external player dependency in order to have someone else available to play game with you. No other people? No game.
There will inevitably be a time limit on the archival ability/longevity of such a decision. In 10, 20, 30 years, eventually something will happen to the website or the player base will erode away. No game.
OR you could just not be a lazy cunt, make a proper in-game post-game, and then that single ROM can be preserved effective indefinitely and always be usable without anything other than the emulator.
FUCK third party dependencies getting in the way of me playing video games. FUCK YOU NIGGER. My game, my time, I'm not going to let an outside source stop me from playing game when I want, where I want.
