Forums - Nintendo - Splatoon is a very serious contender for my game of generation so far

For me Rocket League is a very serious contender for game of generation for now.

Simply put, this game offers such a different experience and fun that I can't compared to any other game.

So fresh, unique, very fun and addictive game.

 

What do you say Rocket League players, do you have similar thoughts?

That's ok, but this a thread about Splatoon. ;)

It's fresh, addictive, innovative and, above all, fun. Also, it has a lot of content and a solid single player experience. So, yeah, it's definitely a contender. I can't decide between Splatoon, Bayonetta 2 or 3DWorld. But I couldn't play any PC game this gen because my laptop it's now obsolete, so I can't make a fair comparison.


Agree :D. These are all things that make it a serious contender.

And to the people still complaining about no voice chat, come on, play the damn thing. It works better without it.

Who cares about voice chat, game phenomenal without, also 2 months after releasing we have full content.

I wrote "a very serious contender for game of generation for now".

I dont see any other game on Wii U that i so fresh, unique, very fun and addictive.

Yes I have.

Lots of people care about voice chat, it allows for communication and strategy amoung friends.

In my opinion it really really isn't.

Addictive multiplayer doesn't = game of the generation. Saying it's better than every game that has come out since 2012 and will come out until 2018/9 or something is a ridiculous statement to make. Rocket League is super addictive but it is not game of the generation contender, at all.

Lots people care about voice chat, but even without is still phenomenal game.

That's your opinion and that's ok.

I didn't said only addictive multiplayer, I wrote "So fresh, unique, very fun and addictive game". Also, "For me Splatoon is a very serious contender for game of generation for now." I dont see why is this so ridiculous statement!?

Just wanted to tell you that Rocket League is more uniquer and funner and and adictiver and even more differenter from other experiences than Splatoon.
So Splatoon isn't even close to a contender for GOTG. Unless the contender list is 200 games long.

Uhm are you serious? Did you even played splatoon? I doubt it. 

 

I do have an Ps4 and Wii U and Splatoon is light years ahead of rocket league. Rocket league is a good game. Not more. Its not even rank 1 on my ps4 games this year (Witcher 3 and Bloodborne both are way better).



Not even a top 5 contender for goty for me... let alone gotg. It is a unique game, I give it that, but it launched with only 5 maps and 2 game modes, no voice chat, no party system, the only local competitive mode is a 1v1 balloon popping mode and a 4-5 hour singleplayer campaign for 60 euros. Even with a relatively small install base (compared to games like CoD or Destiny) it had terrible server issues with frequent disconnects on rush hours. The game is based on teamwork but gives you no means of communicating with other players.
Don't get me wrong it is a really fun game and very addictive... but so is rocket league like the guy above me said. It is 39th in metacritic for wii u games and doesn't have a much better user score. If it really was the gotg for ppl the wii u would be doing a lot better now.

It released with a lack of content no voice chat and an okay single player mode. To give it game of the GENERATION already when we're not even half way through is incredibly bold. There are quite a few games on Wii U alone that would be a better contender than Splatoon.


voicechat doesnt make any sense if you play international with random people from japan, NA, europe and co.

It does make sense if you play with friends though.

 

But tbh the wii u unfortunaly isnt really made for voice chat. There is now party chat, most people that do use wii u voice chat are using the gamepads microphone which is awfull.

Even if the game would offer voicechat I would still just use skype/teamspeak/mumble and co on my smartphone, instead using the terrible gamepads quality or getting a headset that does work with the wii u just for splatoon.

Even on most PC games (counter strike and co) that does offer voicechat, most people prefer using teamspeak and co.

The real disadvantage on the wii u´s side is, that the system doesnt offer a party chat system for the whole system and every game. That would make me probl buying a headset for the wii u to use voice chat serious. But just for spaltoon it just wouldnt make much sense.

 

The game now does have more then enough content and new content still get released for free. Dont see the problem. I also did like the "content over time" model. Nothing was released unfinished, most of the content was on disc anyway. So it wasnt a "rush decission" but a "gamedesign decission" and it worked.


I don't think GOTG should have an Asterisk of If you have connection to download more content because there isn't enough on disc*

I know we're in an internet age now but if you back and want to play the GOTG for each generation long after the servers are shut down (they already are for wii at that sold 100million units, can't imagine Wii U servers will be on for that long) you'd be disappointed in what you find.

 You could go back and play GTA V/TLOU/Fallout 3 or any other contenders for GOTG and see why.
