I think it's that Ssb is a Tekken/Street Fighter-type game for people who grew up in the nintendoverse ๐ I don't own Smash Bros but will play if i link-up with friends who do & wish to play.
I personally like: the colours; the fact it's "clean" and PG; the music (it's arcade fun!) ; the characters ive grown up with & others from games i never played but now make me curious.
As a concrete example, i never rly knew much about Starfox or Metroid but when I played smash bros with my friends who used fox & falco or Samus Aran they looked fun. It didn't lead to much but I did end up learning more about their respective games.
Ditto goes for Shiek from Zelda & that numbers guy Mr Game & Watch ๐คฃ๐ญ The memories !!
ftr I like Kirby ๐๐ป
Had u already considered this or has my text helped? ๐ Have a good day :)
I can't stand pretty much any kind of shooter. Is that mostly because I suck? Probably, but I still don't like them.

Never into the 3d Metal Gear Solid games. Also most RTS; no matter how cool they look they just aren't my cup of tea.

I totally agree with BotW. So many people seem to love it, but it's just lots of empty land, boring/non-existent characters/story. It's just empty and there are no real pointers where to go.
Also, Zelda without dungeons doesn't feel right at all, and the shrines aren't a suitable replacement.
For me it's the GTA games since San Andreas and Red Dead Redemption 2.
I still try GTA V and RDR2 once in a while as I love the worlds in those games. But they always feel grindy really fast and just don't manage to hold my attention. A shame, as RDR2 looks gorgeous and I love the western setting, but the gameplay just doesn't connect with me.
Also doesn't help that each time I want to try picking GTA V or RDR2 up again I end up starting from scratch as I have no idea what the control scheme was. Another thing that just doesn't resonate with me I guess. Perhaps it's better with a controller, but as an avid mouse & keyboard guy all my attempts to use one ended with utter frustration.
For me, GTA has always been like "I can play the story and get a car as a reward, or I can just steal a car". So I always start to steal my way up, until the cops become too powerful. Then it turns into a senseless shootout and once I'm dead, the game is done for me.
It's fun for an hour or so, and that's that then.
