Why does Blizzard get a free pass when Splatoon was shat upon every single thread for being weak on content, despite keeping their promise on consistent content updates?
Did Overwatch have more starting content, I don't have a ps4/xbone so no idea
Andrew Barnes
Splatoon has shit gameplay and is literally for babies and virgins
Overwatch is the MvC of FPS games. It's enjoyable to watch and has a high skill ceiling to keep the kids and blacks out.
Dylan Smith
All the Splatoon content was on disc.
Eli Jenkins
>overwatch >high skill ceiling
Tyler Walker
Splatoon's ink/squid mechanic is intuitive, new, and fun.
Overwatch is literally a dumbed down TF2 with characters that all look like they were pulled from different games to appeal to a specific demographic, making it all come off as a shitty stitched together mess of a quilt.
Aaron Moore
Splatoon released as an unfinished game, Overwatch didn't.

Wyatt Russell
They try, but they're never good. Also, Noel Brown is in prison for molesting a girl.
Cooper Barnes
Because Blizzard finished the game and started making more content after it was done. Nintendo on the other hand fell for the drip content meme like all other devs were doing and as such you had to wait through the summer to have content that should've been around at launch.
Asher Mitchell
Splatoon released incomplete with everything already being created and in mind after release.
Nintendo released the dlc content over time to make people think they are releasing free dlc but really this was all the content in the game but removed.
Sebastian Bell
Why label the fact you're shitposting? Shitposting is only fun if you don't tell others you're doing it.
William Gray
>overwatch >not an unfinished game
user.. I..
Landon King
It had four more stages, two more game modes (splatoon only launched with turf wars and even after ranked dropped it was only that and splat zones which is shit) and of course 21 characters compared to only one (though you could say the different weapons are their own "characters" there were maybe four or five types overall at launch.)
I love them both, they're both legit GOTY contenders of their years, but OW had far more info at launch.
Christopher James
overwatch is neither enjoyable to watch, or has a high skill ceiling
Cameron Russell
More content being added throghout its life =/= unfinished
By the fact that splatoon spat out content every week after release just showed it was purposefully done to keep autistis interested because OH LOOK SHINY NEW THING
Dylan Scott
Splatoon has a higher skill ceiling in every mode, simply because there is no voice chat. You put a good Splatoon player, and a good Overwatch player in the same room, playing their games on a team side by side, and notice how one is screaming at everyone half of the time, while the other is silent most of the time, and only really cheers at the rare moments where you steamrolled the competition. Splatoon requires more skill to play simply because of more limited options.
Austin Johnson
overwatch has no fucking content, most free to play games offer more shit. 2 shitty game modes, all of the maps are fucking retarded. Stupid as fuck designs and chars, gameplay feels montononous and gets boring after two seconds. Nevermind the fact that they are all shitty versionss of chars from other sources
Samuel Lewis
So.. are you defending day 1 dlc? Jesus Christ Nintendrones must have huge arms from all that goalpost moving.
Thomas Parker
Literally no one talks in Overwatch.
Which is actually another point in favor of Splatoon. I could not believe how much bitching there was over no voice chat in Splatoon when no one even fucking uses voice chat in-game anymore.
John Cox
I know you're trolling but it's worrisome that somewhere outhere, someone unironically belives this
Xavier Howard

Jaxon Allen
>Company releases content after game is released >"Thank you based company for improving my game." >Other company releases content after game is released >"Why did they get away with releasing a unfinished game? This is terrible!"
Either both games came out unfinished, or both games came out and are being expanded on. You can't pick and choose here, unless you want to be a hypocrite of course.
Aaron Anderson
Splatoon was good, I hope the sequel will be better.
Jaxson Williams
The content that blizzard has already put out is buggy beyond shit.
Ranked is nowhere near in any state of form finished, in fact, they know for a fact its a buggy piece of shit because they wanted to rush it.
The bugs they had back in PTR were still in the Live server, that's no excuse for any company, even for the like of Blizzard.
Let's not even discuss how long it takes to actually balance out heroes, and if done, done properly.
Christopher Reed

Overwatch is a casual game compared to ranked in Splatoon. You have to depend more on your allies in casual Overwatch as well, while in casual Splatoon, a single great player can nearly win the whole match if he plays his cards right. You can call ranked Splatoon casual, but its not as casual as Overwatch is. Not by a long shot.
Luke Long
no.
Brody White
No, you actually can for these things. You gonna tell me Morrowind released unfinished because it had expansion packs?
A better comparison is actually Halo 5 and Splatoon. Both released barebones, non existant split screen (no fuck you, splatoons shitty 1v1 is garbage, don't even try to consider it a plus), and short, dissapointing main campaign but both got more content each month in order to keep players interested.
A lot of the content in these games was already complete and held back for the purpose of having FREE DLC in flashy letters so the companies look like they're doing something different and are better than their competitors for not making you pay.
If something is free, you are the prodcut.
Kayden Price
>they're both legit GOTY contenders of their years
Come on both are fun but not even close to GOTY.
Kayden King
>you are the prodcut.
I am the wat? What's a "prodcut"? Is that what you call Guile's haircut?
Cameron Moore
my dislexyia have fingers
Brandon Brooks
>You gonna tell me Morrowind released unfinished because it had expansion packs? Not that guy but Morrowind literally was released unfinished and somewhere after the halfway point of the development they had to scrap a ton of content in order reliably meet their release schedule. And yes a lot of that content was indeed put into the expansion packs.
I absolutely love Morrowind but it's a pretty known fact that it was indeed released unfinished. Tamriel Rebuilt any year now. Any year now. Surely.
Luis Rivera
It isn't getting a free pass. Plenty of people are complaining about the mechanics, map sizes, and the lack of updates. It's just a blizzard game people buy it and love it for a fans sake.
I never played splatoon myself because it didn't look interesting. I haven't played overwatch since the release day either, but I can say I have spent 40 dollars on worse things.
Just because you prefer a dead game doesn't mean you should ignore the criticism a game is getting and look on it with envy because your shit ass nintendo game will never be as good.
Juan Robinson
SHUT THE FUCK UP YOU KNEW WHAT I MEANT REEEEEEEEEEEE

Splatoon is a console exclusive Overwatch is not
Gabriel Taylor
One has potential waifus and the other doesn't.
Dominic Evans
Ouch, that sucks. Sorry yo.
Dylan Morris
You had such a nice post going there until you broke down into underage-tier shitposting for no reason.
Matthew Martinez
>Overwatch does not have potential waifus >Splatoon does not have potential waifus Pretty sure both of these statements are wrong.
Adrian Perez
You forgot that Spaltoon had a full offline campaign and a (shitty) local 2 player mode.
Luke Walker
>a dead game Neither of the games are dead though. Splatoon is actually bigger now than when it launched, and Overwatch is still very fresh on the market and has had players have just kept getting into it.
They aren't dead.

Ethan Young
>overwatch doesn't even have that But hey, it has the same offline as Evolve and Titanfall, which you guys loved.
Luis Morris
More like 4 hours, and the use of the core mechanics are actually pretty nice if barebones.
That said, the final bossfight makes the campaign God tier. Boss fight of 2015 IMO.
Eli Johnson
Tons and tons of people were calling Evolve another tortanic way before it came out, and to this day, tons of people still refer to Titanfall as "CoD with mechs".
Sebastian Moore
Splatoon after 1 year and 2 months >has a playerbase neat.
Ian James
That's the fucking joke. Neither have single player, and Overwatch doesn't either.
Brandon Carter
Closer to 4-5 hours. Come on, nigger, at least look into the game if you aren't going to play it. Lies are pretty easy to see through.
Elijah Turner
how about we compromise and call it 3
Gabriel Bell
>Splatoon >Released in a console that no one buys
>Overwatch >Released in best-selling consoles and PC
Do you really need an explanation, OP?
Charles Brown
offline doesn't matter for online centric games, console players willa t least need something when the plug is pulled. the issue was Titanfall had jack shit for content and Evlove as a DLCfest, but between the two at least Titanfall was pretty good.
4 hours if you go for 100% completion maybe. Also the finalboss was nothing special to be honest. Even The Taken King's fight with Oryx with a team of people who had no clue what to do a month after the raid was out was more enjoyable.
Robert Myers
I own it nigger, it wasn't that long nor anything to write home about. I don't the obsession with splatoon. I played it for a month then dropped it because I was bored. I dont know how people can still play it.
Brody Smith

Also speedrun.com/Splatoon#All_Scrolls1 Seems even the most practiced, fastest players in the world can't get everything in under an hour after doing it hundreds of times. So for most, it will be at least thrice the time.
Christian Green
>MvC >enjoyable to watch Mahvel is fucking ass cancer to spectate and I'm glad that Xrd and Melee are getting better Sunday slots at Evo.
Juan Ramirez
You guys do realize that supers can be avoided and misused in both, right?
Wyatt Martin
Has Splatoon been speedran at an SGDQ/AGDQ yet?
Andrew White
>splatoon is a shooter meme
when will it end
Tyler Gomez
Splatoon doesn't have literal aimbot super or dumb press Q to win shit. Sorry but, it's the better game from a competitive/balancing standpoint.
Asher Bailey
But it is a shooter. Not a very good one, but still.
Kayden Jones
Yes, I remember watching it, don't remember which one though.
Benjamin Parker
Because Splatoon was shit.
Sebastian Campbell
You can still kill him while he's aimbotting, and you can hide behind shit. Soldier's Q is pretty much mediocre, which is part of why you don't see him in comp level play a lot.
That just makes it look like Splatoon was released unfinished.
Robert Robinson
it looks like fun
Ian Davis
Woh there. Overwatch is pretty shitty at the moment with a broken tank system and set teams. Tf2 has at least balanced class and some sort of similarities between characters. If say overall tf2 come son top as unlike splatoon and overwatch some stuff is actually worked on and put through it's pace's
Jose Clark
Overwatch isnt on the fucking Wii U
Cameron Thompson
agdq this year. he got a pb iirc
Parker Reed
Why are you so angry?
Joshua Hill
what the fuck are you saying
Justin Morgan
TF2 has 8 fucking years still is playable and fun
Gabriel Gonzalez
>my casual shit is better than your casual shit
these bait threads are always great
David Myers
Overwatch ranked system is shit and unfinished. Tf2 is finished but still needs work. Splatoon works but is unbalanced
Jason Bell
TF2's matchmaking system is significantly worse than OW's.
Xavier Campbell
Overwatch has placement matches yes that tf2 needs but tf2 has a higher tick rate and matches are decide on a fucking flip of a coin
Nathaniel Johnson
>overwatch >finished
William Morgan
What Overwatch needs most of all are new maps.
Heroes are hard to introduce with how overtuned every character is with their ults. It would be easy to balance if it wasn't for Ultimates that fuck everything up. So we aren't gonna get 'new weapons' or game modes any time soon. The 6v6 format is too limited for any sort of interesting 5 cp map because people will get separated, or high mobility Heroes like Tracer take the field. Same with Capture the flag. The game just needs more of what it has, because its already getting boring as fuck playing on the same maps over and over again. Thing is, they don't even have to have it be hard, they can just flex their current maps into extra maps. Have a random time zone for some maps that change the feel of it. Turn route 66 into koth where the point is on top and 2nd floor of the building, etc.
Overwatch is subsisting on casul value and the appeal of the characters alone. They should be keeping up the hype for their launch, not just releasing a glorified quick play with MMR shown and then doing nothing else for nearly a month.
