I think it's pacing too.
I really, really enjoyed Garden Warfare but the movement of everything feels real sluggish compared to other MP FPSes, moreso compared to Splatoon.
For you, I'm guessing because Splatoon's hypothetical features bullet-list is sorely lacking to GW's, that makes the latter the de facto better game. But I think Splatoon's speed as well as movement mechanics really set it apart as snappier and more satisfying, especially given how much time commitment is asked of players.
I'd definitely give GW2 a go though! Bad Mass Effect tie ins and all.
