Sure no point spitting on them but they are added features, not fundamental. If the player base proves solid, then they could add in those other features in the future. |
can't disagree more. if i picked up uncharted 4 and the only option was team death match i would never play the multiplayer even though that's my favorite mode. the various modes are what add new gameplay to a game. yes, gameplay, the thing nintendo fans value above all else. capture the flag is a different gameplay from team death match,.. team vs. team is differnt from an all-for-one is different from team vs. bots. this variety is what makes a game fun for longer than just a bit ergo making the game more appealing.
...and it's not like it would be hard to not fracture the userbase and still ofter a variety of gameplay options if the concern is the community will be smallish. have multiple game modes but have the only player option be a "playlist". i'm not a creative person but it took me all 5 seconds to think of the idea that the first game could be based on territory capture and the next game be based on "kills",.. one game is 4 vs 4 and the next 2 vs 2 vs 2 vs 2. i mean, i'm not wrong in thinking that idea is blatantly obvious. ..or am i just a fucking genius here?
not rushed. lazy. nintendo.
