I blame the consolidation of sports titles under a limited number of developers and publishers. But maybe I just feel this way because sports games aren’t my thing.
Is 1/10 the best or 10/10 is the best?
I would rather play NBA jam on SNES than any 7/10 RPG.
But NBA Jam is a game, not a bundle of perverse incentives disguised as a game.
You’re describing a 1/10 sports game. We’re talking about 10/10 sports games.
Fair enough
it’s not a sports game, it’s a game sport
if that makes sensedoesn’t matter, rocket league is faaaaaar from 10/10
Out of interest, what are you missing?
Is Rocket League a RPG?
No.
I miss Supersonic Acrobatic Rocket-Powered Battle Cars, personally. Feels like it lost a little heart when they turned it into Rocket League
Rocket League is 100% sport.
Rocket League feels more like a sports game than simulations sports games to me.
Yeah, rocket league is a sport game more than anything else, technically.
And, yeah, most rpgs are going to be better than all but the best sports games. It’s the sameness factor. One baseball game is much like another in what you’ll see and do on screen.
Not that rpgs can’t get samey, but they’re less so
It’s a fake sport but it is a sport
