Why does Blizzard get a free pass when Splatoon was shat upon every single thread for being weak on content, despite keeping their promise on consistent content updates?
>>
Did Overwatch have more starting content, I don't have a ps4/xbone so no idea
>>
Splatoon has shit gameplay and is literally for babies and virgins

Overwatch is the MvC of FPS games. It's enjoyable to watch and has a high skill ceiling to keep the kids and blacks out.

Splatoon's ink/squid mechanic is intuitive, new, and fun.

Overwatch is literally a dumbed down TF2 with characters that all look like they were pulled from different games to appeal to a specific demographic, making it all come off as a shitty stitched together mess of a quilt.

Splatoon released as an unfinished game, Overwatch didn't.

Because Blizzard finished the game and started making more content after it was done. Nintendo on the other hand fell for the drip content meme like all other devs were doing and as such you had to wait through the summer to have content that should've been around at launch.
>>
Splatoon released incomplete with everything already being created and in mind after release.

Nintendo released the dlc content over time to make people think they are releasing free dlc but really this was all the content in the game but removed.

>>344695837

It had four more stages, two more game modes (splatoon only launched with turf wars and even after ranked dropped it was only that and splat zones which is shit) and of course 21 characters compared to only one (though you could say the different weapons are their own "characters" there were maybe four or five types overall at launch.)

I love them both, they're both legit GOTY contenders of their years, but OW had far more info at launch.
>>
>>344695838
overwatch is neither enjoyable to watch, or has a high skill ceiling
>>
>>344697116
More content being added throghout its life =/= unfinished

By the fact that splatoon spat out content every week after release just showed it was purposefully done to keep autistis interested because OH LOOK SHINY NEW THING
>>
>>344695838
Splatoon has a higher skill ceiling in every mode, simply because there is no voice chat.
You put a good Splatoon player, and a good Overwatch player in the same room, playing their games on a team side by side, and notice how one is screaming at everyone half of the time, while the other is silent most of the time, and only really cheers at the rare moments where you steamrolled the competition.
Splatoon requires more skill to play simply because of more limited options.
>>
overwatch has no fucking content, most free to play games offer more shit. 2 shitty game modes, all of the maps are fucking retarded. Stupid as fuck designs and chars, gameplay feels montononous and gets boring after two seconds. Nevermind the fact that they are all shitty versionss of chars from other sources

Which is actually another point in favor of Splatoon. I could not believe how much bitching there was over no voice chat in Splatoon when no one even fucking uses voice chat in-game anymore.

The content that blizzard has already put out is buggy beyond shit.

Ranked is nowhere near in any state of form finished, in fact, they know for a fact its a buggy piece of shit because they wanted to rush it.

The bugs they had back in PTR were still in the Live server, that's no excuse for any company, even for the like of Blizzard.

Let's not even discuss how long it takes to actually balance out heroes, and if done, done properly.

Overwatch is a casual game compared to ranked in Splatoon. You have to depend more on your allies in casual Overwatch as well, while in casual Splatoon, a single great player can nearly win the whole match if he plays his cards right.
You can call ranked Splatoon casual, but its not as casual as Overwatch is. Not by a long shot.
>>
>>344697764
no.
>>
>>344697668
No, you actually can for these things. You gonna tell me Morrowind released unfinished because it had expansion packs?

A better comparison is actually Halo 5 and Splatoon. Both released barebones, non existant split screen (no fuck you, splatoons shitty 1v1 is garbage, don't even try to consider it a plus), and short, dissapointing main campaign but both got more content each month in order to keep players interested.

A lot of the content in these games was already complete and held back for the purpose of having FREE DLC in flashy letters so the companies look like they're doing something different and are better than their competitors for not making you pay.

If something is free, you are the prodcut.

Not that guy but Morrowind literally was released unfinished and somewhere after the halfway point of the development they had to scrap a ton of content in order reliably meet their release schedule.
And yes a lot of that content was indeed put into the expansion packs.

I absolutely love Morrowind but it's a pretty known fact that it was indeed released unfinished.
Tamriel Rebuilt any year now. Any year now. Surely.
>>
>>344695551
It isn't getting a free pass. Plenty of people are complaining about the mechanics, map sizes, and the lack of updates. It's just a blizzard game people buy it and love it for a fans sake.

I never played splatoon myself because it didn't look interesting. I haven't played overwatch since the release day either, but I can say I have spent 40 dollars on worse things.

Just because you prefer a dead game doesn't mean you should ignore the criticism a game is getting and look on it with envy because your shit ass nintendo game will never be as good.

offline doesn't matter for online centric games, console players willa t least need something when the plug is pulled. the issue was Titanfall had jack shit for content and Evlove as a DLCfest, but between the two at least Titanfall was pretty good.

>>344699912
4 hours if you go for 100% completion maybe. Also the finalboss was nothing special to be honest. Even The Taken King's fight with Oryx with a team of people who had no clue what to do a month after the raid was out was more enjoyable.

What Overwatch needs most of all are new maps.

Heroes are hard to introduce with how overtuned every character is with their ults. It would be easy to balance if it wasn't for Ultimates that fuck everything up. So we aren't gonna get 'new weapons' or game modes any time soon. The 6v6 format is too limited for any sort of interesting 5 cp map because people will get separated, or high mobility Heroes like Tracer take the field. Same with Capture the flag. The game just needs more of what it has, because its already getting boring as fuck playing on the same maps over and over again. Thing is, they don't even have to have it be hard, they can just flex their current maps into extra maps. Have a random time zone for some maps that change the feel of it. Turn route 66 into koth where the point is on top and 2nd floor of the building, etc.

Overwatch is subsisting on casul value and the appeal of the characters alone. They should be keeping up the hype for their launch, not just releasing a glorified quick play with MMR shown and then doing nothing else for nearly a month.

>Similarities between characters

Not it doesn't. That's exactly why it's better than Overwatch in a lot of ways. There's exactly zero overlap, every class does it's own thing, and is the only one that can do that, with each one having its own unique mechanics and quirks that interact with the engine.

Meanwhile Overwatch has multiple characters filling the same roles with minor differences, to the point where there is ZERO reason to pick anything but the very best in each slot unless you're just fucking around, and a very "what you see is what you get" mindset. The only things I can recall at the moment that are unintended, but balanced and increase the skill ceiling is Genji superjumping, which will be inevitably patched out once he becomes good in competitive due to patches weakening other characters.

>Picking ANY support but Lucio or Mercy
>Picking ANY damage dealer but Pharah, Tracer and maybe McCree
>Picking ANY tank but Reinhardt or Winston

It's shit, and will only get worse considering Blizzard's track record of balancing, and the addition of new heroes.

Out of the 3, I think Splatoon is the most fun. The lack of a genuine class system gives you more freedom to do unorthodox things, as opposed to having a more locked role in class shooters,
Some weapons are too good though, namely the .96 Deco and Dynamo Roller.
>>344705167
>>344705329
Shitposters like these should get purged from /v/, Splatoon had a shitton of content dumped into it into the first week, so much so that all the 'barren at launch' posters were put in their place and fucked off.
