yeah, but its more fun if you have a friend to play with

No shit game for loli fags

Yes but be aware of the amount of incompetent faggots you will have in your team each match especially in ranked.

If you didn't play 1 you have a great time
If you played 1 you're gonna have to pay an extra 20 to make it feel like it's actually a sequel

No don't

Maybe

if you expect to invest time into it yeah sure, you need to grind to get the good stuff

if you want to play it super casually don't bother

No

Botw and odyssey can fuck off, Spla2n is the best first party switch game so far.

Very shallow but fun for a while. Gets a bit old due to simplicity. Would say the only time it was really enjoyable for more than a few matches was with friends.

I bought it on release. Could't stand the motion controls so I sold it on craigslist.

This game would be 1000 times better with mouse and keyboard controls

I'd counter and say this isn't really a game where you should care that much about tier lists and competition due to its lack of depth. That is, if you don't have dedicated friends to play with.

yes.

It's pretty good. I got over 100 hours out of it playing it by myself. I imagine it's alot better with a friend though. Gameplay is solid but there is a handful of design choices that hold the game back from being great.

define depth and how splatoon 2 lacks it

The normal game mode gets old pretty fast to be honest. Salmon run is really fun. Splat fests are great. Single player is okay. Overall I would rate the game a 7.5 or so, but that's on a real scale, not an "everything below an 85 is shit" scale. It's an above average game. I would recommend you get BotW and Mario Odyssey first but if you already have both it's not a bad choice. You won't be disappointed if you get it, but you won't be blown away either.

>The normal game mode gets old pretty fast to be honest.
that's why you play ranked dummy

yes. the hype got even more built if you played and were an avid fan of the first game. Splatoon for me was a surprise hit. The gameplay is quite enjoyable despite the fact you can't properly communicate with your team mates so you can coordinate what to do and where to go. It is definitely a lot more fun to play with friends, but good luck finding 3 other people that also have switches AND this game. Splat fests in this game now seem to be a monthly event and they do get quite competitive on the day of the event depending on which team you picked. It's also neat to see other people posting drawings in the hub world

pic related is literally what you'll eventually experience in a "splat zone" battle

Yes, it's a straight improvement of the original

>you need to grind to get the good stuff
Agree on this one
But you really dont need those 4 stacked abilities anyways
>40 ability chunks for that last swim speed up
An abstract kind of hell

Clam Blitz makes me want to kill myself. The area control one is fun.

Not really, up until the octo announcement... The game was fucking dead.
>Peer to peer 'online'
>Constant disconnects
>Shitty teammates even in S rank since ranking up is too easy
>It is literally Hold Back Content : The Game
Paying for that frustrating online is not worth it imo.
Honestly, the Wii U version of the game is superior.

It's my favorite franchise of this decade. I'd give it a go.

I feel like the main mode (Turf War and Ranked) just isn't as good as the original game. Bad specials, bad samey stages, lack of always visible map.

Salmon Run is great though.

If you can manage to keep playing it, yes.
It's a wonderful game with a lot to offer but I burned out pretty quickly on it. I know there are lots of others still playing it 24/7 but I just couldn't keep playing it all day. Now more of an occasional game for me.

ever played counter-strike, halo? shooter games with depth...I don't really know how it's not obvious how splatoon is a bit shallower of a game.

Is anyone having trouble in the first game? As in, "can't show your face without dying instantly" kind of trouble? I don't know what happened. I used to be good at this game.

Original splatoon has been almost completely abandoned due to the fact that Spla2n outclasses it in almost every way, so naturally the only people still playing are die-hard wizard-tier grand masters.

I'm probably the average kind of player and the way I would describe my experience is like this. I play casually a few hours a week normally. When the splat fest comes up I play much more for the week beforehand then after the splat fest I burn out and take a break before repeating the cycle. There are players that get deep into ranked play of course but they're probably a minority. I definitely don't regret my purchase. Having the 5-7 days or so of fun gameplay (before/during splatfests) to look forward to each month was worth the $53 I paid for it.

Makes sense desu. Cancer got noticeably stronger after the final splatfest. Got even worse the exact day Splatoon 2 came out.

The maps are a clear downgrade from Splatoon 1. They feel so safe and lack verticality. Just compare the likes of Moray Towers, Arrowana Mall, Mahi Mahi Resort, and Saltspray Rig to any Splatoon 2 map. They're all just a flat boring plain with a few blocks sticking up. Such a disappointment. At least Splatoon 2 has most Splatoon 1 maps returning.

This so much

>Tfw I'm level 6 and getting more points and kills than the level 40s on my team
How can you play a game this simple for this long and still not be good at it?

>Saltspray Rig

I hate that this map is probably never coming back because shitters don't like it. It was always one of my favorite maps.

well they're level 40's playing turf war, you should know they're terrible. Anybody remotely decent stops playing turf war as soon as possible and only comes back to it during splatfests.

Yeah it's like they heard all the little pants-shitters saying "WOW I LOVE WALLEYE WAREHOUSE" (great map by the way) and just decided to make Splatoon 2's entire map selection in the vein of WW.

Saltspray was fun unless you were playing it in splatfests, in which case it was frustrating watching people fall for the bottom of the map meme. You only need the top part of the map to win turf.

Also, a lot of the recent shifty stations have been the best maps I've played in either game. I hope they're making their way into permanent maps soon.

l asked you for a definition you stupid faggot, not namedropping other games

AYYYY

prime post

shifty stations are fun but l don't see how they'd work in any other mode than turf war

imagine tower control with the artillery cannons

What stuff is missing in Splatoon 2 from the first one?

Does it have all the same maps and weapons from the first?

They would just have to gut those levels for rank. but they're limiting certain maps to certain rank modes soon anyway. Give me some maps that make turf war actually interesting then.

>What stuff is missing in Splatoon 2 from the first one?
It's missing the best sisters as the main idols. Fuck the nigger and the shitty looking loli.

Attached: SquidSisters.jpg (1920x1080, 142K)

replaced all the specials except bomb rush. and splatoon 1 maps are slowly being added in.

Why do the duos all have moles?

The Dual Squelcher, Non-Scope Chargers that don't glow, different main/sub weapon combos, and every special weapon.

That makes so sense since Splatoon 2 user base like triple Splatoon 1.

There are a LOT of newbies.

nah, they can stay in the blander story mode that suits them.

I'm a story fag and didn't own a Wii U, can someone sumarize or link a place with the shitty lore Nintendo wrote for the first game?

It's one of the quintessential Switch games, user, it has something for everyone.
Stay mad.

Just look up the Sunken Sea Scrolls, that's all the lore you really need.

It's good but currently just a minor expansion of the first game.

get mad :) you know what it means.

The constant disconnects are still present and will continue to be even if they ask you to pay. Really makes you think if the game's terrible tick rate is the cause.

>octarians and inklings came out of post-apocalyptic earth.
>Inklings won a war and banished the octarians to the underground.
>splatoon 1 story mode you're the newly christened Agent 3, you get the city's giant zapfish back from DJ Octavio and capture him in a snowglobe.
>also the squid idols in the first game are agents 1 and 2
all you need to know

Newbabb here. If it's up for your consideration at all, you will probably enjoy it. It's fun, competitive without being overly serious, and really stylish. I've put in a lot of hours into the game over the past few weeks and really hooked.

Are all the mini games from the original game in Splatoon 2?

amuse yourself every time this message shows up

You mean the game you played while waiting? No. There's a rythm game, but can only play it on the plaza.

Splatoon gas a pve horde survival mode called salmon run, a single player campaign, 4 ranked modes and turf war

Get an ethernet adapter, I was disconnecting every 3 matches when I used the Switch's shitty wireless but now that I have it plugged into the network it works perfectly every time

Nintendotards discovering big boy games :^)

You can disable motion, son

dont play online videogames on wifi kid

One of the best games of the generation for sure.

It's a kids shooter game, with furry little girls. They wanted a non violent shooter type game, that the greatest amount of people would buy. Any kid can get it.

No, sadly. Those were great.
