Splitgate 2 pushes the series in new directions but will this please fans of the original? Ian Higton finds out in this preview based on the Splitgate 2 Alpha.
I appreciate your enthusiasm! I think a lot of folks are a bit burnt out on hero shooters at this point, given the market saturation. On the other hand, you are correct that Splitgate 1 was a bit thin, and they needed to do more with it. To me, it feels like they looked at that problem, and just went “what if we made it more like every other multiplayer shooter on the market right now?”, which strikes me as…lazy? Uninspired?
