That's ... interesting. Seems like it would break any objective-based gameplay but it doesn't sound like Splatoon will have much of that, anyway. Really, they're gearing this up to be a game that kids can pick up and play without getting totally slaughtered by organized opponents. That's just the way it's going to be. Still, if they could add other modes besides the standard death-match style, they could limit voice communication to only those modes. Or, possibly, they aren't expecting very many people to keep playing for very long, so they're trying to keep the pool as undiluted as possible. That might be a sign that this game will come in well below expectations. |
The games objective is to cover as much ground with your ink as possible, not to kill other people. It won't have other modes from the sound of it (with an incredibly stupid reason as to why, just say you were too lazy, at least that's believable). This game was probably developed in less than a year if that is all they could come up with.
