Because Surgeon Simulator at least seems like there's more to it then just one action the whole time.

Divekick has a lot more going on than one action at one time. It relies entirely on movement via a single characters main attack and manages to encorperate intense concepts such as zoning as a core mechanic as well as being purely based on skill. This stuff is insanely high level. If you don't play fighting games, you're not going to get what makes this game great. This is not a game for scrubs and people who don't like simplified high level play.
What you really need to understand here is that the simple mechanics of the game and the numerous characters with many many attack options and strategies are purely built around concepts to introduce pure skill. This is no less of a fighting game than any currently on the market.
I'm not going to go into the mechanics and how supportive of sick plays they are. All you need to understand is that every single thing is there for a reason, and is done deliberately. It is astonishing that a game can have such depth while retaining a two button control scheme with no stick controls AT ALL.
Also BAZ IS THE BEST.

Hmm, I can see that. Still, the problem I had with Surgeon Simulator is that when you're finished with all the operations, there is really no reason to go back and replay it, at least to me when I tried it at a friend's house. Not to mention the whole QWOP controls get annoying really, really fast. Hell, Mount Your Friends did the QWOP concept more justice than both Surgeon Simulator and even QWOP itself imho. And yes, that is a real game that is unfortunately confined to the hell that is XBOX Live Indie Games. And it's a good game too imo.
Divekick is really the type of game you have to experience before you write it off. It both parodies and captures the essence of playing tournament fighters. It's just a shame people are writing this game off already without giving it a try.
Stillllllllllll.........To each their own. Hopefully people don't write off Skullgirls as nothing more than a fan-service anime brawler without looking up how it does away with annoying traits of the fighter like the anti-infinite combo system and it's surprisingly in-depth tutorial.
Don't always write off stuff based on appearance.
Also, if you guys are looking to find a match with me, look up gturtle96 on Steam and add me. We can than both show how bad we are at this game :D :P
