Splitgate 2 plays great - but its new focus on objective-based 4v4 team games may be a turn off [Eurogamer] (www.eurogamer.net)

4v4, objective based gameplay with a slight hero-shooter twist

This sounds awesome to me! Add the portal mechanic to the mix and its a unique hero shooter with objectives. I played the first game back when it was new, but stopped playing because lack of content, playing the same thing over and over again. It got boring. Hopefully they learned their lesson this time.

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?
