I loved Rocket League - it's my 2nd most played game on Steam - but honestly that game died for me the moment they took the irregular shaped maps out of rotation to appease the whiny eSports players.

Now it's just the same shit every match with a slightly different skin. They've got all these different modifiers (gravity, ball size, shape and bounciness) and game modes (hockey, basketball, dropshot), yet none of it gets integrated into the main game.

I'm aware that might just be me, and given how many years it's been since that change, I imagine most of the user base is perfectly fine with how it is now, but it definitely lost its quirkiness from the early days.

You might enjoy the rocket lab mode. Used to be a limited time mode, but I think it's permanent now.
