Because everyone will get sidetracked with other stuff or bored before finishing it.

Except for the manly men, Edge & Iga.

Why does that Jack look creepier than mine.  His eyebrows arch higher.

GG you say the camera focuses on who killed you, I wouldn't know cause I was looking down on the pad to see where I should re spawn, like you are supposed to. Also this mode is admittedly not about kills.

You've got like 5 seconds between being killed and respawning.  For me that was more than enough to see who killed me and then strategically decide who I should fasttravel towards.

I guess that is true. Since everyone looks the same and you aren't really focused on killing people I never can tell who I am fighting against. Using destiny as an example you can clearly tell who killed you and see if he is on a streak or so. The camera focuses on him, the announcer yells out to let you know, and I had many battles where my personal goal became to fuck over the one douche on the other team. That's some of the most fun I had with the game. maybe in time I will learn to focus on who is doing what but the game makes it distracting.

As for destiny don't even, it had over 10 maps at launch with like four game modes. All the skills were available at launch. You can connect with friends all you want. The core game had tons of hours of content. It didn't lock you into 2 maps evey four hours, wtf is that crap. If I am going to play a session I plan to sit there and play for hours, I don't do tiny sessions, wtf is that. the game basically limits you to two maps a session, and who knows when you come back it maybe the same two you played last.

Yes, I agree, there's no point in comparing this to Destiny.  First of all Destiny probably cost ten times or more the amount to make that was needed to fund Splatoon.  Secondly, Destiny was touted by Activision and Bungie as the second coming of Christ, while Splatoon is just Nintendo trying something new and seeing how it'll roll.  And then Destiny launched at between €60-€70, while Splatoon is launching at €40.  Oh, and with Destiny the dev feels you should be content with a sprinkling of new content every 4 months or so.

So yeah, Splatoon isn't in the same ballpark as Destiny.  What should be acceptible for Splatoon should be far insufficient for a game like Destiny.

I'm still getting Splatoon at launch.

What have we been playing besides the Splatoon demo?  I finished up Alien Isolation and moved on to Second Son.  This games seems so much more fun to play than the original.  I'm sure in part because of the gorgeous visuals.  It's quite the looker.  There are some great improvements like traveling through vents and cool powers.

Since I got PS Plus, I even downloaded a few games. My son and I really enjoyed the simple but frenetic Race the Sun.
