Battlefront didn't and Splatoon amiibos are sadly still considered a paywall so nope. The scope and graphical output of Splatoon isn't that big compared to other games like Destiny and Battlefront so yes I find Nintendo fans calling Splatoon being the holy grail of how to make DLCs very pretentious and hypocritical when they could've delayed the game and finish it without locking content. It doesn't matter if it is free. It's just hypocritical to use delays and dlcs in favor of Nintendo games yet don't give the same excuse to other games when they are games with different visions and budget. Then we have gamers calling devs lazy and greedy as if they're in charge of game development. Really feel bad for those devs who get those criticisms while some just escape it because reasons. The fact the game doesn't even have voice chat really hurts Splatoon too but it's okay and forgotten because it's Nintendo. Honestly if an MP game this year didn't come with that, fans are gonna flip. |
Pff
Amiibos is the eternal excuse here, it doesnt matter if the content they add is compeltely lame is always good as an excuse, but is only that: an excuse. Amiibo lets you replay some levels of the single campaing with another weapon on levels that are not designed for that weapon and end up being way less enjoyable because of that... woooow. It couldnt be more lame than it is, yet people shit about it because is the perfect excuse to shit about it, we are talking about a 1% or less of the total content of the game, but "locked behind a paywll" sounds badly enough, pure demagogy.
The graphical scope does not matter shit when we are talking about content, if a 60$ game is released empty and the extra contnet cost me another 60$ then I dont give a shit how pretty the game is.
And you are forgetting something, the vast majority of the extra content was already ON DISC, wich means, they were not lazy or anything similar, this is game design. And worked perectly, the interest on the game ha been high for months and people has learned to play before releasing the more complex maps and modes.
And yes, the fact that si free is absolutely relevant, I paid 35$ for the game and I have been getting a ton of content for 6 months paying 0$, of course thats relevant, what are you talking about? For you Destiny and Splatoon deserve the same criticism even when Destiny makes you pay 2 or 3 times more for the entire game while Splatoon gives it to you for free? Oh but Destiny is a prettier game so its fair, lol. That logic.
