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.

    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

    I miss Supersonic Acrobatic Rocket-Powered Battle Cars, personally. Feels like it lost a little heart when they turned it into Rocket League

        Not OP, but the community used to be so much better before. Game is fun, begun playing it on launch, but quit about three years ago because the people that play it are pretty toxic nowadays. Also, can’t trade stuff now. Some people really enjoyed that aspect of the game (not me, but still). A shame there isn’t anything else like it.
