The game isn't fundamentally different than any other third-person shooters really. Sure they don't involve painting the map but that's hardly what's good about Splatoon I think. Honestly if you liked Splatoon you should absolutely try Transformers: War for Cybertron or Fall of Cybertron. |
It really is. What game have you played that has rollers, inkbrushes and buckets as weapons? Tower Control is also something I haven't seen a lot, the only thing I can think of is that one mode in TF2. Rainmaker on the other hand looks like an interesting take on Capture the Flag. Instead of going the generic route like CoD they at least try to give an interesting spin to their modes.
The abilty to change in a squid when you're in your own ink is also what makes Splatoon stand out from any other TPS. You can hide, climb on walls and move faster in it.
