>Splatoon is sold as a full price game in an era when most competitive multiplayer games that aren't F2P are written off immediately, e.g. all games media not being paid off calling Concord dead on arrival
>you get a campaign, multiplayer and a co-op PvE mode
>only post-purchase DLC is a bonus single player campaign
>game has seasons but there's no premium battle pass and all the content is immediately added into the in-game stores after the season ends
>metaprogression is nonexistent after the player hits level 30, after that is just getting more tickets to unlock more guns which is easily trivialized

The only other relevant premium multiplayer shooters on the market are Call of Duty, GTA Online and Rainbow Six Siege.
Is Splatoon being a Nintendo A-lister making it immune to conventional market logic?
>>
this is why I can't take spergs who treat nintendo like the worst thing in the industry seriously

sure they have a lot of flaws but compared to the rest of the industry they're by far the lesser evil

They’re not. Catalog gear only appears if you unlock it first, and emotes are sent to gacha. Everything else is unobtainable after the season.
>>
>>682863803
Yeah it reminds of buying a shooter back in the Xbox 360 era. It's nice
>>
>>682863803
It’s crazy how we live in a world where the only online shooter worth playing is made by Nintendo. This is what happens when westerners are in charge of an entire genre.
>>
>>682864515
The catalogs will re-cycle though.
>>
>>682864515
each catalog has gear from older seasons too, so the only thing you'll be missing is locker decorations
this season's catalog also has the gear from sizzle season 2023

People act like Nintendo not following the latest predatory industry tactics is the worst thing ever. They scream Nintendo games are too expensive and then wastes hundreds of dollars on a single game or many cheap ones they're never going to even play.

legit genius core gameplay, fantastic presentation, insane amount of content, good challenge, and popularized the last real improvement when it comes to console gaming control schemes with gyro aiming and yet faggots act like it's this shallow nothing series, gaymers truly deserve all the chinese gachas and rollslop coming their way

She is overly compensating her attraction to men to deal with society's expectation of centering men as the default. No straight person dresses like she did in Splatoon 2.
>>
>>682873568
Part of what holds the game back is its crappy matchmaking and high amount of network issues in games. It's been one of the biggest complaints since 3's launch, and the communication errors were much more prevalent in the beginning. They've cleaned it up a bunch since then. I think Splat 3 in its current state is a great game even with its rough edges, but that is not how it was at launch. For Japanese people i'm sure it's fine as they have lots of Japs to play with, but the netcode gets real questionable when it involves anyone outside of Japan. The Switch's gimped network capabilities also hurt the game, with many people playing on wi-fi, with the Switch's wi-fi chip being notoriously bad.

I think westerners get turned off because they see it as a kids game, and motion controls filter most people. Gyro controls need to be embraced more, but people are still traumatized by the Wii waggle days, so they associate all motion controls with that.

She's not gay retard. I know you fags think every single fictional character is gay for some reason but not the Squid sisters. You can have Pearl and Marina, they're the gayest duo in Splatoon. Anything else is a huge stretch, stop inserting your gay projections into literally everything.

Its funny how people thought that Nintendo's lack of innovation was somehow working against it, when MS and Sony basically innovated themselves out of the competition by turning themselves into digital storefronts. They dont even sell CDs half the time anymore, just a digital code to download from xbl/psn.

Because Splatoon is a queer series and we don't need straight people infecting it.

It's one of the biggest complaints people had about Splatoon 3 at launch, rightfully so because the netcode was straight up broken. Have a rough launch like that and it pushes people away, even if you fix it later. Reviews criticized it at the time, and lots and lots of people complained about it, rightfully so.

Isn't that more of a theory than anything?
I thought the datamines mostly just point to it being in a new hub, the tutorial area at the start of the game, and that it will be one giant concert from all three idols instead of the idols performing in separate hubs.

Is there any data pointing towards it being a big run AND a final splatfest?

And what happened to Agent 4!?

Actually there is! Within the files there’s data and parameters to handle Big Run music within the new plaza alongside parameters to announce a Big Run within the Splatfest itself (picrel), none of which would be necessary if they weren’t planning to have a Big Run occur within this new plaza where the FinalFest is held. Combined with that one weird PSA from grizzco hinting that the salmonids got one more trick up their sleeves, one way or another Big Run WILL be involved with the FinalFest

I'm sorry, I just legitimately disagree. The games are very frustrating to me because of how little user control they offer. And like >>682885810 says, it still has alot of failings that make the game hard to enjoy. I also don't like the character designs. Is that so wrong?

Maybe my first post was wrong, and the game does have some positive qualities. But after playing through it myself, it just never stuck with me, and I never understood the hype.

NTA, and while it's possible that guy is just shitposting, thinking of all of the fomoshit that's in Splatoon 3? I wouldn't put it past them to do a battle pass type thing. We've already got $25 DLC with very little content. We've got Smash Bros and Mario Kart that have long ass DLC cycles. We've got catalogues where all of the new gear is locked behind limited windows of availability, and more grindy shit with impossible to get badges, events that are only available for a couple of hours at a time, and so on. They've leaned more into fomoshit with 3 than they have any previous game. What makes you think they're going to back away from that?

>doesn't address a single point
Argument conceded

What makes you think they're going to back away from fomo-oriented design for the next game when they've leaned more into it than ever before? I've got near 4K hours between all three games, I think Splatoon 3 is a great game, and while I don't think battle passes are inherently bad, I think time-gating content behind limited availability is indeed cringe as fuck. It punishes people who aren't there for the launch of a game. It punishes players who don't put X amount of hours into the game every season. No previous Splatoon game did that. 3 did. I think 4 will as well. Whether it will be paid or not, that's up for debate, but I wouldn't put it past them. Remember Nintendo Online used to be free, until the Switch that is.
>>
>>682900313
I didn't address anything because the "argument" is fundamentally stupid, splatoon from the start has been a free GaS title so you might as well have used exactly the same retarded reasoning to argue splat 2 and 3 were going to have paid updates because splat 1 structure was le frog in le boiling pot
>>
>>682900643
That's also not a single argument.
Splat 1 and 2 didn't lock in game content behind time windows. Splat 3 leaned more into fomo than any previous title before. Splat 1 and 2 were also released at times when it was free to use your own online. Switch online was free at first, for the first couple of years, then they started charging money for it.

Splat 3 leans more into Fomo stuff than any previous title. So what makes you think they're going to back away from fomo for the next game? Chances are, they're going to keep leaning into it. You literally cannot get the new gear in the game without first unlocking it in the catalogue, and if you don't do it then, you have to wait an entire YEAR before the catalogue reshuffles. That's retarded and there's no defending it, which is why you don't even try to lol. I love Splatoon 3, don't get me wrong, but the fomo designs are literally the worst aspect of this game. It does nothing to make the game better but punish people who don't grind an arbitrary amount of time. Splat 1 and 2 did not punish players like that.

Yeah just like they say they "fixed" egg lag every patch, and yet egg lag is still there. I'll believe it when I see it.

>Buffs Krak-On
But they nerfed the Kraken itself.

The douser are probably the most meaningful. Buffing bubbler is interesting, but it doesn't really fix the Zooka problem.

You also left out the fact they gave Reefslider a damage radius buff but reduced its painting radius to nerf zones cheese, which is a healthy change.

It's not that they're trying to make it meta, it's that it's an absolute dogshit special. The second kraken was let out of the bag, it overshadowed big bubbler completely and the only way to make it viable is to potentially make it completely broken because kraken is already completely invulnerable and also has offensive capability.

Buffing it against inkjet and inkzooka is healthy. That’s the type of shit it should be strong against, and if it becoming better acts as a nerf to those specials and a buff to its counters, which are already weak. It could get bad if too centralizing, but it works as a great counterbalance for our current meta

It's not ever going to be anywhere near the problem you think ink armor was. Big bubbler is trash. It's a stationary defensive special that fails to defend against anything. It can't stop a splashdown, it can't stop a charged kraken attack, and you can walk directly into it. You really need to get over this obsession with big bubbler. It is far from the biggest concerns regarding specials in this game. The fact that trizooka has largely been untouched since its inception should be telling. The fucking thing still doesn't have a start up time after all of this. Anybody who fears big bubbler has not played splattershot jr. outside of it being the starting weapon. That special is so trash that it needs to be replaced entirely.

>splatoon is loved by the LGBT

I've noticed this really weird trend that a LOT of characters loved by the LGBT community are also loved by the heterosexual male coomers community.

Like, a lot of things. a Weirdly large number of things Like, on youtube shorts there is a guy that talks about what your favorite Pokémon or animal crossing villager says about you. AND like ALL the coomer favorites are apparently loved by the LGBT community too.

t's insane, and then you learn about horse show fandom and how like one huge chunk of them are progressive LGBT types, and another chunk of them are /pol/ users who helped meme Donald Trump into the white house.


The fuck is going on?
>>
>>682914921
Fair enough. Infact, let me delete my previous post. I was probably being unfair by saying that I wasn't having any fun. I'm not gonna condemn the game for these problems entirely, but they still are problems. That's all I'm saying.
>>
>>682915134
How do you think they would let people host their own splatoon servers? I don't think there is a console multiplayer game that lets you host a server.
yeah the p2p is shit, nobody is denying that.

Hey, this Gone Fission loadout looks fun. Hope the freelancers are up to snuff. And OP, you shouldn't be praising Nintendo too much. The fact they even bothered adding in season pass bullshit is already a gigantic red flag. Just because it's free don't make it good. If they were immune to shitty ideas, they wouldn't have started charging people money for a service that's worse than when it was free both on the previous console and previous handheld.
>>
>>682915208
Haven't console games been doing this for decades? I know some of my favorites allow the hosting of servers, like Armored Core 4 and FA and V and VD let you host rooms to fight eachother.
>>
>>682915337
Servers and rooms are two very different things.
>>
>>682915374
Then they could point to PC games, which allow you to make servers. Select your map, then open up the lobby for anyone looking for a game. Not only letting you pick what map you want to play, but even making your own custom maps and setting custom rules, maybe custom game modes.
>>
>>682915510
My point was HOW do you think they would let people host servers for console games? Do they expect you to just run on on your switch? That means you can't do anything with it while you're running the server. They sure as hell don't want to make an app for the PC.
>>
>>682915698
>They sure as hell don't want to make an app for the PC.
I wouldn't write that off as impossible. They're open to making apps for mobile phones, even if it was just for voice chat.
>>
>>682915793
No splatoon source code is in the mobile app. A server hosting program absolutely would. That would just open up even more vulnerabilities.
>>
>>682863803
Splatoon is way bigger than most people realize. It WILL eclipse Fortnite in relevancy at some point.
>>
>>682915976
Then at the least they should allow a bit more user freedom in terms of what people are allowed to play online. It just feels restrictive.

A lot of troons are just incels that went off the deep end. I've seen many of them talk about "My alt-right phase in 2016" (Read: watching "SJW owned" compilations and posting frogs) and saying "Thank god I'm not brainwashed like that anymore!"

>>682916232
It's a little hard to explain. If I may bring up TF2, the difference is akin to why people liked quickplay (you could hop into a game and choose from thousands of servers) and the subsequent dislike of matchmaking (the algorithm chooses for you)

>>682916710
Maybe in japan? Here the game's a little bit of a ghost town. In one of the modes you can get an overall ranking based on hour you did during a 2 hour block. Wasn't too long ago that I got 20th place and didn't even make top 50%.

listen, i've watched splatoon on twitch and from the outside it looks like a paid game with p2w transactions and like all nintendo games it doesn't have a game server so there is a latency advantage for whichever team the host is on. i cannot think of a more ridiculous combination of things to be true in a competitive game.

Nintendo is weird with their marketing. They can do good trailers and a direct automatically takes attention from anything else going on.
But then they have explainer trailers for how whatever mechanic works in a game or these family adverts where it shows people playing 2-3 second clips of a game on the bus or in a park instead of just doing game focused trailer without a cheesy voiceover saying "you can shoot, swim and squid you way to victory in Splatoon 3".

If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little "clever" comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your fucking tongue.

>don't need to aim
I know it's shitposting as usual but I have no idea how this became a common notion while talking about splatoon

probably comes from journos who kept spamming this retarded
>if yuo dont know how to aim (like me) u can still contribute because its not about le kills!!!
yeah you're going to "contribute" like the retard gold aerosprays in ranked that do fuck all besides spamming useless booya bombs alright

We're nearing the end of its guaranteed content so it depends if they confirm backwards compatibility or extend it.
Not to say that people will suddenly stop playing at the season end in September and you still have the campaign to go through but also never by a console for a single game.
>>682926873
They stopped caring about being thematic and that when you have the option of playing Niki Manaj with an anime rifle.
As soon as a game goes for "haha wacky" then it no longer knows what it wants to be and becomes a catalogue for whatever will make the most money.

For the price of those fursuits you could by 2 switches, splatoon 3 + DLC for both people, the Online family package (expansion ver) and the TV to play it on whilst still having enough money to pay the unlucky photographer.

All LGBT people are coomer degenerates maybe? That's why they defined themselves by their fetish?

yeah, no thanks. i'm not going to encourage this judaic behaviour. nintnedo completely dismisses those who are not financially capable of affording the premium price of their games. it's no wonder many people choose to emulate. yeah, nintendo are profitable, sure, but where's all the money going? where's the innovation? the risks? it's always the same IP's consumed and regurgitated ad infinitum. overrated slop.

what the fuck were they thinking with pearl's design. how you design a bunch of hotties and think to yourself, "oh yeah we need a little goblin to round this out".

>>682927265
The way the patch notes they just put up are worded compared to prior mid seasons patches highly implies there is not another season after this one.

They don't even know basic things about the games they try to mock.
