The Raiders Direct starts in just two hours!https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xgeuzWwExIYAnd following that, whatever the Treehouse stream will showcasehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GK93aZDpePkSplatoon Raiders!
>>742260147I only ever played the splatoon 1 campaign and really enjoyed that. Would this be up my alley then?
I hope the gear customization is fun. The colour chip combinations in Side Order could get pretty crazy at least. I hope this is an upgrade on that and not something more constrained.
gaybut I'll lurk
>>742260365>Would this be up my alley then?Probably. The Splat1 campaign, even with all it does well, is easily the worst Splatoon storymode. Splat2's Octo Expansion DLC and Splat3's campaign, were leagues above Splat1's. And Splat3's Side Order DLC was also very interesting mechanically. Who knows about Raiders but it does look like it's taking lots of cues from all the later games. Including the Salmon Run stuff which is really cool. So Raiders will surely be really interesting.
>>742260430This comic is unironically kind of making me want Splatoon Builders. If only. I mean Pokopia is good enough I suppose. But still. I'd love a Splatoon version.
>>742260147I always liked how insane the finales of these games get, a full single player campaign has no excuse not to go completely nuts
>>742260839>a full single player campaign has no excuse not to go completely nutsGiven how the story mode and dlc of 3 ended I'm pretty excited.
i hope we get a demo, i'd like to make my mechanic ceph
>>742262101>i hope we get a demoDemo! I didn't even consider that!A demo! I want one! Starfox got a demo. Rhythm Heaven got a demo. This could too, right?
>>742262329every splatoon game has had a "demo" but it was always just to test the online featuresso i'm not sure if raiders would get one
>>742260147nooo I'll be at work
I just want them to show off the multiplayer, it's "only" 15 minutes. Also show what the amiibos do, I'll buy them either way at some point but still
my wife
>>742260147Link to UK stream for people who can't stand NOA's accents-https://youtu.be/LrfFGxN9sWY
Show me more Shiver
Bananza direct was 15 minutes long and was pretty good so I'm looking forward to it, not expecting a demo but I'm keeping my switch with me just in case
Shiver me timbers.
>>742263865would
>>742260396I don't know why don't seeing lava in Splatoon feels odd. I guess charred squid is tasty.
>>742263903
need her to kill me
>>742264017I guess it's just glowing water for gameplay purposes, since cephalopods can't swim in water anymore.
I’m so ready bros I really need to see more Shiver SEXO
>>742264072Dangerous posting this right before a direct...
>>742264236Glowing water, my ass! That shit's fucking lava!
Best idol btw
>worst musical group involvedWhy would I care?
>>742264643
>>742264643True
>>742264643>>742264727this is a deep cut thread, get out.
>>742264643I SEE IT
>>742264727It's not a off the hook game tho?
>>742264434I hope the direct is good.
>>742263489The uk lady voice is so sexy.
>>742264872oh, it's bowser junya!
argh the sudden american accent
>>742264727shit taste
PLEASE DEMO
i'm seated
>>742265426They grew on me, music wise they're probably the best, or tied to the squid sisters, I love these team rocket tier retards
A demo would be nice. Other than that, I don't really have any expectations.
>>742264727People said the same thing about OtH until OE gave them personality, and that was just DLC; this is a full-on spinoff
It’s time. Sit back and relax
It's starting!
Let’s goooooooooo
>the presentation will begin soon!When is soon?! They're late!
I hope the map is deceptively bigger than shown. There's a lot of cloud there.
WHERE IS THE BEAR!@>>742265872it's started, refresh.
Seasoned Fish... ehhh
>smokers are like these guysLove it
>>742265906>refreshYoutube sucks! Why did I have to refresh! I missed the start!
>Salt is the new theme What are they implying?
I fucking hate these announcers so much its sounds like "UH YEAH THAT JUST HAPPENED" inflection all the time
>>742266079Salt = Strong
>>742266079>What are they implying?Snails.
Speed Tank is already the best tank.
Imagine if Splat4 will have some abilities like these.
Power Tank is for easy mode, got it.
Tactical gadgets look very fun
Tactical tank sucks Big man bonus incoming
>the customization!
>>742266373>>742266349Speed > Tactical > Powerit is written.
Doesn't look like the order of upgrades matter, not quite Noita but still pretty good.

SPLATOON JUMP THE SEQUEL!!!!!!
Looks fun. Just hope it's at least a good 15-20 hour campaign and not as short as the story modes in the main games.
It's still crazy to me that splatoon 3 created both the hottest, and the ugliest idols
Alright, pre ordering right now
Survivalists! Assemble!
>>742266913GOTY
>no demoBoo
>>742266909But there’s more than 3 in total? Maybe I misinterpreted.
So should I get a switch 2 today or wait for the upcoming euro one with a replaceable battery?
>friends and password only>no pubsDamn
>>742267056Password is optional, you can make an open one
>>742267056The pub is “crying for help” now
>you can play with randoms but only by calling them with the a SOS feature.>And it has a cooldown.OH COME ON! WHAT THEY HAVE AGAINST ALLOWING US TO PLAY WITH ANYBODY?!
sex with emily
i've always wanted pve splatoon and this one is perfectsalmon run was fun to play, this one provides all that with even more customizationthe only genuine worry i have is people dropping the game after rushing through the story
Looks great. I'm a huge squid fan so already had it preordered. I've wanted something like this for a while now but I wonder when Splatoon 4 comes out, 2027? 2028?
It looks fun, but way too short. That map didn't look very big.Feels like cut Splatoon 3 DLC that they added a little more to in order to justify a bigger price.
definitely looks more fun than the past 3 or so trailers suggested.i wonder why it's kinda ugly and colourless though.i respect how fucked up splatoon's music is, only other series that dares to have bonkers music is SMT
Dunno what else to say besides I'm really excited and that I hope there's plenty of reasons to play after the story concludes
>>742267035They only showed 3 of each type, so we don't know yet. I'd assume there's more.>>742267049If you accept the $50 price hike, sure. I'd just get one now.
Previews are coming out now.
>>742267049today, who knows when exactly the new revision will release and if it'll be after the price increase (or the next price increase after that we know will have to happen)if it's better then just sell/trade in the old one
>Shiver gives you a private danceNice.
shiver
Why the obsession with only being able to play with people in your Friend List? lt us olay with anybody, dammit.
why is this a switch 2 game, looks like it would run at 60 on switch
holy shit what a complete nothing of a game.
>>742267146>I wonder when Splatoon 4 comes out, 2027? 2028?Likely ‘28 at the earliest, assuming they aren’t gonna milk 3 for much longer. These games usually have about a 2-year dev cycle. Work on it is certainly underway
>>742267298considering the machine is there, i'm assuming each idol will have their own version.the fuck would big man do, spin around?
>Flyfish got nerfedThank Christ
>All the losers in this thread that don't have friends to play with
>>742267337To get people to buy a Switch 2 and it worked, I did buy a Switch 2 for this.>>742267315Man, Street Pass really fucked up Nintendo. They've never recovered from that.
I'm here just for squid sexo.
>>742260412Looks like they went out of their way to have no spats, or similar things, despite a lot of outfits. Everything is baggy, or multilayered.
>>742267439>friendsyou're the loser without children anon.
>>742267298Engineered to make boys fall in love.
>>742267439You obviously don't need friends, there's public matches.
I'll be your friend.
>>742267439The problem with "friends" is that they aren't always on, with randoms you ALWAYS have someone to play with.
Oh fuck
>>742267315It's how they can remain without liability for online content.
I hate Salt. It's course, it's rough, and it gets everywhere.
>>742267535We'll make Splatsville rich again! So rich that the inflation will cause an economic recession in Splatoon 4
so it's like a looter shooter
>>742267535Splatoon gets too real sometimes.
how does the co op feature work?
>>742267629Basically Warframe Splatoon with limited multiplayer.
>5 gadgets in total per tank
>>742267725Holy shit, TF2 Engineer would be proud.
This is so cute
>>742267535Is Splatoon 4's plot going to be the next Agent investigating Splatsville's government on embezzlement charges?
what about fucking mouse controls?
>>742267856
>you can bond with Fryewhat is her social link dialogue?
>>742267535What caught my eye the most. One world-building criticism I had with 3 was that splatsville was stated to be this poor shithole (hence the whole chaos theming) yet they seemingly dropped that entirely so it never really felt like it (robot-staffed restaurant, high-end mall, completely renovated train station and international airport, etc.). Either they’ll somehow rectify this or just still try saying the place is poor i’m looking too much into sunken scrolls, I know
>>742266913An actual Squid Jump sequel. This is amazing.
The multiplayer isn't limited at all you dumb ESLs.https://youtu.be/xgeuzWwExIY?t=2742Pause it at 45:43, you can see where you just need to have a keyword and that keyword is probably just something like the difficulty or map or a concept like "chill" or "hardcore".
>If you upgrade anything you don’t beat the game >If you don’t choose survivalist you don't beat the game >If you use coop you don’t beat the game What else should I add
>>742267670>you can make a room to play with friends>if you’re struggling on a level you can get help from online (but only once per limited time)>you can go online to help others for a reward
>>742268039I've always been a little confused which Stages are in Splatsville or Inkopolis in Splatoon 3.
>>742267535Pearl's about to buy Splatsville and make a city wide turf war.Gonna be Yu-gi-oh dual city
>team up with friends>OR>create a room with an optional password
>>742268098>if you don't kiss anyone you didn't beat the game
>>742262329Unless it gets a demo I might not consider getting it *Beep*
>don’t clear stinger first newbie behavior
>>742260147Is shiver the only vidya character who's in game model is hotter than the porn
>>742263589>>742263865Imagine the smell, scent and stink
>>742267298This game.
>>742268049Sold! (I was already buying it)
>>742266569Nice. Comfy squid grindan.
>>742268514>no big man social link shownbtfo
I was gonna watch the direct at work, but forgot about itWhat did I miss?
Shiver wins again
>looter shooter where the higher difficulty gives no extra rewardswhy are japs so fucking retarded
>>742268221All the old stages are inkopolis, all the new stages are splatsville (except shipshape, which is a cargo ship in the middle of the arctic ocean)
>>742267337It wouldn’t surprise me if like MK World and DK Bananza it started off as a Switch 1 game but ran into technical issues with having a lot of enemies at once.
>>742268729there is two types of difficulties retard, one that increases salmonid levels and a baseline difficultyhigher salmonid levels gives more rewards
>>742268729>Bragging rights aren't good enough
So is there a golden salmonid in the middle of that hurricane? Seems like it. Glad to see a lot of gadgets and some real teeth to the Salmonids. Platforming looks to be back with gear specific challenges. And the online looks like a good time, both for splat threads and irl friends! I'm a total scrub, so I might just stick with people I already know.
>>742268729You have to love the thrill of the battlefield
>>742268651Shiver and Frye will give you kisses now depending on how well you clear every Dungeon.
>>742267512Why do I like these silly salmon so much?
>>742268317So can we have open hubs?
>>742267337Yeah I was hoping it would look a little better visually or have a 120fps mode, right now this really does just seem like slightly expanded Splat3 dlc. Still looks extremely fun though
>>742268898you're prolly just a nintendo shill.
>>742268773Development started in ‘24 following SO. Switch 2 was around the corner so i’m sure switch 2 was in mind for development
>>742268901Seems like it.
>no online matchmaking >no pvp>difficulty settings>15 hour long >$80YIKES
>>742268969Because one can't like these things organically? Or what?
>>742268898he cute. Shrimple as.
>>742267337Visual refinement focused on no longer having atrocious AA, more detailed models/textures, better ink effects and maintaining fps/resolution with a higher enemy count/variation.It's improving without killing the style it's built the series on.
online co-op is good, I was afraid for a second they were limiting it to local play.Pretty excited, salmon run and the single player campaigns are how I've interacted with 2 and 3 so this game is only missing the part I never play.
>>742266778>they haven'tEveryone else did it about a million times though.>>742266817Dumbass faggot
>>742269096
>>742269096>online lobbies >co-op ludo>hazard level climbing>150 hours long >$50Yep. GotY
>>742269006SO was probably the prototype.>>742269195Nintendo aren't everyone else and Splatoon has the potential for it. I want to see what they do and see if they can put some of them to shame.
>>742266778They just added roguelike mechancis to the bonanza DLC, and didn't splatoon 3 already do this?
>shiver amiibo out of stockbut there's plenty of big man and frye..
I loved what I saw. But no demo...
>All those anons asking why this is not on the switch 1.Regarless any technnical reasons, it makes sense for Nintendo to WANT everyone to move into the Switch 2, why the fuck they would keep making new games for it? Rythming heaven will be the last Nintendo produced game that comes for the switch 1.
>>742269472>He didn't pre-order them the moment they were put up on the Nintendo StoreAt least it won't be as bad as the Pragmata Amiibo
>>742269472Check play Asia
>>742269472all amiibos are up, why are you lying?
>>742269472Wait, I thought they only came in a big package of three.
shiver sharting big logs down the mechanic's throat
>>742269516I hated what I saw, it's obvious why there's no demo. completely bare bones game with nothing going for it.
>>742269652Nah. It looked great. And I bet you've been shitting on the game since before anyone even knew what it was.
>>742269630Last I checked that's only available in Japan
>>742269624Correct, you can get all 3 from Nintendo directly.https://www.nintendo.com/us/store/products/amiibo-shiver-splatoon-series-125231/https://www.nintendo.com/us/store/products/amiibo-frye-splatoon-series-125230/https://www.nintendo.com/us/store/products/amiibo-big-man-splatoon-series-125232/
>>742269520I can't afford switch2.
>>742269760so he was lying, cool.
>>742269520Because it doesn't seem to be taking advantage of the S2 at all besides very minor details like >>742269153 said
>>742269630on amazon you could get them individually for $25.Its odd because this implies the individual boxes altogether are chaper than the triple pack.
>>742267118Dates with Emily
I'm gonna get the amiibos for a few cents each because I still have a big stack of nfc cards
>>742267118>>742269826She’s married to a japanese man.
>media previews are up They’re doing a combo
>>742269774it's only going to get more expensive anon...
>>742269721nah, it looks like shit.I bet you've been shilling this game since before you knew what it was.
>>742260147Can't wait to see what the Off The Hook and Squid Sisters amiibos bring.
>>742267439I will be your friend anon :)
>>742267535PLEASE somebody make a pink wojak inkling edit
>>742269652>dissident can't explain why he doesn't like it.You mean nothing if you can't even explain your reasoning for being a little bitch.
>>742270038I have this saved from 2015 if you or anyone else wants to edit it.
Game of the century
>>742270108>>742270038You have a wealth of amazing artwork.Why would you ever use fucking wojaks?Disgusting
>>742270108>>742270038>Reddit man image>Wanting more reddit man imagesDisgusting
>>742269931Source? You probably made it up.
>>742269797How is any of that even bad? That’s taking advantage of the stronger hardware in every form except graphical. As it mentioned it’s a very simple cartoony style and there isn’t much you can do on that front sans a complete overhaul, so effort is put into allowing the game to handle more things without slowing down. I’d say that’s a much more worthwhile use of better hardware than going full grafix and the end result being something that looks pretty but runs like ass
So, Salmonids salt themselves both to gain power and encourage opponents to devour them?That's pretty metal.
>>742270108Cursed but wow this makes me feel old
>>742270115Yes
I think this game will tickle my 'Numbers go up' autism. But I've never played a Splatoon, what do I need to know gameplay wise and lore wise going in?
slut outfit on the right, my woomy WILL be wearing this and seducing salmonids btw
ahh, RPG shitjust the thing I wanted in my sploon>>742270378use gyro, learn to use the swimming movement and everything ink related as fast as possible
>>742270108>>74227003810 hours in MSpaint
Reviews seem pretty glowing
>>742270175its a /biz/ joke
>>742270303I never said it was bad. Just that it doesn't immediately stand out as being a S2 game
>switch 2: 430€>pro controller: 70€>sd card: 130€>game: 60€Looks cool but i‘m not spending 700€ to play this shit
>rhythm heaven preordered >splatoon raiders preordered When is Duskblood coming out?
>>742270741why the fuck do you need an SD card to play this game when you're buying it physically to begin with?
>>742270776they will have a CNT test somewhere around August i think
>>742270430Is that my nigga Bazz?
>>742270378Lore wise, Salmonids are a warrior race of fish we're been stealing Golden Eggs from as a Part Time job for the last two games. Recently, they've been invading the cities of Inkopolis and Splatsville as revenge.They used to be a near apocalyptic event in early Inkling history, until ranged weapons were developed.
>>742270787Cause i‘d transfer all the shit from my regular switch over?
>>742270741>nso: 20€>gaming chair: 300€>capture card: 200€>computer for the capture card: 1500€>electricity: 50€

>>742260147from the thumbnail I thought shiver was wearing a gstring I was like damn I need to masturbate right now
>>742270551It’s a nintendo game, of course they’re gonna glaze them
>>742270657I don't care. I've always despised those ugly things.Shouldn't be surprising that a 2014 board latches onto that shit
>>742270741It’s ok to be a poorfag. Now you can fuck off from the thread

>>742270813Yep. I'm getting married.

>>742270883Except your original comment implied it was for playing Splatoon Raiders specifically you double nigger.
>>742270830I too hope so. Otherwise August is gonna be a bit empty
>It’s a nintendo game, of course they’re gonna glaze them
>>742271141You want me to have 2 switches hooked up at once?
>>742271139How does Shiver expect us to get any work done when she keeps looking at us like that?
>>742271139I thought her name was Sugar. The narrator wasn't good, every time she said ship I thought she said shit.
>>742270957Look at the butthurt snoy, look at him and laugh.
>>742271158Supposedly something planned around Tokyo game show/Gamescom time in Aug/Sept. Nintendo are doing things for both.
>>742269520There's 1 other reason thay muight be the more obvious one
Which Splatoon Youtuber's preview should I trust, /v/?
She's going to blow!
>>742271072Why are you being nosy in her personal life anon? :(
>>742271204No but does it matter anyway?You already established you don't want to spend '$700' to play 1 game. Which is perfectly understandable by the way.
>>742271310I think it's more likely from S3 having distant/background objects animating at single digit fps showing how much a hardware upgrade was needed
>>742271310>muight>thayI don't usually make typos like this.Am I having a stoke?
>>742271596>stokeI'd call a doctor.
>>742271658Oh shit oh fuck
Looks fun as fuck

>>742271659god damn it please no
>>742271869you VILL clap again
>>742271158New Pokopia area unlocks in August
>>742271659surely they wont do it AGAIN
>>742271408Say something nice to your Nintendo localizer.
>>742271659she litteraly sings it right after
>>742272171>>742271659what song?
>>742272219Ya ha ha
completely forgot the direct was today. looking pretty fun though
>>742272260That heavenly melody.........
>>742272346What would the Inkling God even be like
>>742272305that pikachu and korok have seen things
Just saw a bit of gameplay but how does the game work anons? Kinda gives me old MH vibes with the room thing and hub.
>>742272546You land in an area, shoot the ever living shit out all the enemies in your path with custom gadgets you make, find treasure and return to extraction pointIn said areas you can face increasingly more difficult tiers of enemies and bossesGo back to base, get stronger, make more items, rinse and repeat until you have unlocked the entire world map and completed the story
Oh now that splatfest makes sense.
>>742272743SEX SCENE CONFIRMED
>>742272219Does her mirror have buttons? What am I looking at.
>>742272546salmon run single player edition
>>742272743I'm bonding!
>>742272861It's a mirror with touch sensors.
>>742272743max and you can marry your idol
>>742260147>Outfits come as full sets and not pieces that you can mix and matchUnironically sunk the game like 2 points on my rating scale.
Should I buy Splatoon 3?
>>742273230lol
>>742272721Thanks! It looks fun>>742272906Never played Splatoon so no idea what salmon run is
>>742272743>>742272747>Frye is for PowerSpeedlets need not apply
>>742273271Salmon run is the PVE game mode in SplatoonEver seen TF2's Mann vs Machine? It's like thatYou and 3 more people get sent to a map in the middle of fucking nowhere, with a basket that you collect golden eggs with.then a billion salmonids starts to swarm the area trying to kill you, including special salmonids and boss salmonidsYour goal is to survive each wave, getting the golden eggs that salmonids drop and putting them in the basket, before you die or all the waves pass by. It's easily the best part of Splatoon since Splatoon 2
has the new haircut made frye more popular?
>Shiver and Frye will be important for the first hour of the game until they get replaced by Callie and Marie>Pearl and Marina are dlc
>>742273478Yes
>the ketchup and mustard dualies
>>742272224really?I watch directs with sound off
>>742273478sadly yeswhich means there'll be more competition for who gets to marry her.
>>742273478The real niggas among us have never wavered
>>742273257What's so funny?
>>742273478She already had more art than Shiver did before this game was even announced.At least in Japan tho, via pixiv
Am I allowed to say that some of the characters in these games are hot?
>>742273478i prefer the original
>>742271072>Privated
Did they give up having two equally hot idols so they just have>Gremlin>Hot one>Meme pick
Surely they will have any other NPCs besides Deep Cut that they're just hiding
>>742271239Common misconception because her asshole tastes delicious
>>742273710Yes
>>742271139Why does she arch her back like that?
>>742273939Yeah. God
>>742273448Comparing it to mann vs machine is a bit misleading. That is a lot about leveraging chokepoints and dps. The playstyle is very different.
>>742273448Been years but isn't MvM is like a tower defence mode with their set pathing and fairly rigid structure.This is nothing like that.
I only played a bit of splatoon 2 multiplayer. it was fun, but I did not like how playing on the TV seemed to nerf you since handheld mode just makes it so much easier to aim with gyro.ive been interested in splatoon but I never played the single player campaign for 2. the games feel good and I am interested in this one especially since its single player focused.
>>742273448Cool, got the SW2 recently and was playing mostly SW stuff so I'll definitely get it.Playing games like this with randos is quite fun.
>>742274167>playing on the TV seemed to nerf you since handheld mode just makes it so much easier to aim with gyroHuh? How? I mean if that worked for you, all the power to you. But angling the screen around felt really awkward to me. I super love the gyro controls though, but not in handheld. If I'm playing Splatoon "handheld" I always do it in table-top mode.
Its sad that Shiver and Frye were treated so poorly in 3 they had to get a second game where they can actually be relevant
I hope there will be a randomized dungeon with randomized floors. I really quite liked Side Order.
Surely our mechanic can tinker grizzco weapons right?
>>742267118yee yee ass haircut
>>742270086>shill cant' explain why he likes ityou mean nothing if you can't explain your reasoning for being a little shill
>>742274679I wonder what cool final-level-exclusive, awesome gadget(s) we'll get to build for the finale.
>>742273936The gremlins are hot as fuck
So bottom-line it for me:is there anything in there that would get me on board? I haven't played any of the Splatoon games bc I don't care about mulitplayer gamesOr do you have to be some kind of Splatoon lorefag to enjoy it?
>>742274378Angling the gyro while looking at the screen feels wierd to me. I live by myself though so i dont have to care if i look like an idiot flailing the console around.
>>742274838you never really need to play previous games to jump in
>>742274656Same here. There's gotta be some kind of post-game content right?
>>742274838It’s a shooting game after all. You shoot, you have fun, and you can skip as much cutscenes as you want
>FRYE'S BOOBS HAVE JIGGLE PHYSICSthis is why they gave her the new outfit by the way, to stop them from jiggling so much.
>>742273991Good
>>742274838Splatoon has a strong style and a lot of context surrounding it so it is easy to forget that it's actually just a really fun video game. Excellent movement mechanics integrated with the gunplay that gives it a sense of player expression spread out over dozens of guns, melee weapons, bombs, gadgets etc.
>>742274758Alright.Splatoon is a shooter where even missed shots are useful in some degree. It's Singleplayer always had a nice intro to mechanics whilst multiplayer had a remarkable skill ceiling, perfectly using gyro to be one of the few console shooters not relying on auto-aim. There's no hard-set meta and weapons cater to various playstyles so you don't need a perfect aim to excel, just an objective focus and awareness.Co-op also manages to be a frantic struggle with enough to it that some players forgo even bothering with pvp. The setting and characters are fun with backstory to find instead of be outright explainedThe squids are cute too.Now as I said earlier. You're a bitch that can't even explain why you hate something, only existing to emptily complain.
>>742267337I doubt it, considering how hectic the whole thing is. People said the same thing about Pokopia.
>>742267874The charm determines who's in the robot right?
>>742274943>>742275002I guess. I'll keep an eye on the reviews. It looks neat, but I'm not quite convinced it's for me
I don't know. I'm still not convinced. Every single story campaign has been disappointing. Octo Expansion was a neat extra while Side Order was shallow filler.
>>742273532>>the ketchup and mustard dualiesThis game's weapon designs have just been real good overall.
>>742275424just watch some gameplay when it comes out and decide for yourself
Amiibo gear
if you want a get a good idea of the scope of Raiders:Splatoon 3 has 24 sunken scroll collectibles.Splatoon Raiders has well over double that.
Do any of the other Splatoon games have good single player content?I want to try the game out on my modded switch
>>742275032
>>742275637splatoon 2 octo expansion and splatoon 3's base campaign are fantastic single player experiences
>>742275571this says absolutely nothing about the scope since the scrolls were spread out across smaller maps
>>742275637Splatoon 2's DLC is amazing. Splatoon 3's single player is similarly very good. Splatoon 3's DLC is also extremely good, but it sadly gets repetitive before long because it needed more content. But yeah. It's got really good single-player content.
>>742267458Hey baggy pants + midriff is top tier.
>be me, i have a job but i am a third world country scum which means gaming is expensive.>Granblue Fantasy Relink and Splatoon Raiders come out on the same month.>can only buy one.Dammit, I thought Relink was coming in october but i was wrong now I am divided between my need for cute anime girls and frye's big boobs. I'll ultimately get both but i can only get ONE during their release month.
>>742275637The singleplayer has always been prep for the multiplayer but were still worth playing. Play through the campaigns in release order though. Don't skip 2's octo expansion.
>>742275663>>742275032Holy fucking shit my dick.
>>742275791>gay gacha slop>an actual gameHmmmmmm
>>742275663Holy Krakens, she's coming right for us!
>>742275319you described the previous games, not this game.
>>742275571>>742275697But think about all that potential LORE.
>No weapon upgarde>No gadgets>Hardest difficulty >Never uaing skill points>Not using relics>Never calling for helpYup
>>742275791Relink is key card slop, dont buy or just get it on PC.
>>742275878I explained why I like the series and the elements this game will carry over. I can't do specifics for this game without playing it. Best I can do is show interest in the Noita-ish upgrades, furthering Side Orders mechanics and being glad to see a Splatoon game that appears to be finished instead of, for the fourth time, released before it's ready.
>>742275839Renlink is not gacha.
>>742267315why would you want to be carried by strangers in a single player game?
>>742267548With all the I.D mandating, I can see Nintendo trying to argue they shouldn't need to collect I.D since you can't meet new people on their platforms.
>>742276153If I get Relink I'll just get it digitally.
>>742276153Switch 2 is the only thing i have that can run it (i don't even have a PC, just an old ass laptop i use for my job) and i was planning to buy the digital version, not the GKC shit.
>>742275552>decide for yourselfI mean yeah, that's what I said. Reviews by people I trust are data points, ones that I value over shitfluencers and marketing material
>>742270741
>>742276291Well I can tell you the game is kind of shallow, I played relink when it came out and it just got pretty repetitive and the enemies and bosses lack in variation. It was fun, but I dont think $60 dollars worth of fun, or whatever your currency is. I'd wait for a sale.
>>742275663>baywatch theme playing in the background
>>742276445Anon...i only care for pretty anime girls. I did play the demo and found myself using Io a lot and now i want more (also why the fuck Raiders doesn't have a demo too?!).
>>742260147that direct really didn't show anything we didn't already know did it?
>>742276674You can set a room without a code which means randoms can join which is what most of the people wanted to know.
>>742275424It's only $50 if you pre-order it physically. I'd watch the Direct and see if it interests you; if it does, I'd go ahead and put a pre-order in. Worse case, you could likely sell it and get most, if not all, of your money back.
sexo frye
>>742274656
>>742270741>still cheaper than a ps5 with zero games
>>742276773never pre-order games.
>>742270741don't forget the extra docks for each room in your house, that's +$480
I know a nice girl irl who loves splatoon and plays it a lot.Do you think she masturbates to it? Do girls like squids?
You WILL wear the Grizzco outfit, right?

>>742264727RudeRUDEDeep Cut is cool.
>>742276863I'd normally agree but you're saving $10 and Nintendo is one of the few companies who doesn't push out Cyberpunk level dumpster fires.
>>742277034Cuttlefish was right
>>742277198they must have done something else to her besides the haircut, she's looking WAY better
>>742277274she always was cute.
>>742266037Would be a cool addition to general salmon run.Another non aggressive type but still poses a strong threat.The li'l bomb guys would be a real cunt though if added in. But could make a fun night/hazard wave type.
Game looks alright, but this direct might have spoiled too much of the gears and powers.Also I hope it's not like the splatoon3 dlc that start decently hard but get trivial after 1 hour when you pay for your first boosts
>>742277351No anon, this 8 head is HORRIBLE! raiders saved Frye.
>>742266725>>742266763It's ludo.But right to survivalist for me.>>742266817He meant 3 gadgers equipped at once, not just two.And it looked like you can even go up to 4.

Is there really no demo?
>>742277781I like her face
>>742268317>Change to Local PlayI barely ever use it. But I just want to point out how tremendously based it is for Nintendo to have LAN play for basically all of their online games.
>>742267535I blame Donald lumpfish and his spendings on the lincod reflecting pool
>>742277123>Expecting MIGAs to not be intellectual bankrupt when pushing their divisive agenda for their bear mastersCome on, these are squids who claim they want a purely merit based system, then kick the ladder out from under them when a better qualified Octoling comes along.

I love this veemo
>>742267337Retards like you need to be shot.Do you not recall what OG max haz was like in 3? Before they nerfed boss and trash spawns?This game would tank so bad on the switch1.Buy a switch2 you poor squnt
>>742275569>big man gets the best amiibo outfitit happened again
>>742277923>nintendo is already SKG friendly
i dont get why theyre trying to market this so hard as a solo game.
>>742278052it's already SKG friendly by having the entire game be playable offline.
It's so obvious this was first made as a switch1 game.... I am still really hyped to see how a pure switch2 splatoon can look like.
>splatana stamper is inMIGHTY NEEEEED RAISES>>742267425I mean he HAS to lose his barrier. We literally don't have bombs anymore, he'd be unkillable without splatchet or other piercing gadgets, or explosher.
>>742276980I want to, but I probably don't have the right amiibo.
>>742277781Damn, people are quick.
>>742278078it's for the jap kids, anything else would bore them
>>742278187it's the splat 3 inkling girl, but idk if all splatoon amiibos give this or if you can scan callie to get something else
speed tank definitely seems like the best, at least for my playstyle of recklessly jumping in and out of risky situations
>>742267535>60bil debtHoly moly.Grizzco better start paying more.
>>742278187
>>742278094Also they've gone above and beyond when they ended service for Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp by releasing an offline version and allowed you to transfer your save to it.
>>742278351that fucking bear isn't paying his fair share of taxes!!
>>742276980I will wear whatever the coolest outfit there is
>>742278187There's a chance some of the amiibos are only granting access to things you would otherwise have to earn by other means and only deep cuts ones are limited.Note the "how to get" at the bottom
Shiver is so hotI wish they didn't ruin Pearl and Marina for me
>>742278351Grizzco is probably why they are in debt. Grizz was shoveling money into his space program/hair loss prevention program and employed roughly 80% of the inkling and octoling citizens. Company probably couldn't handle the financial strain of the rocket blowing up.
>>742265426I can't believe Big Man gets to have sexual intercourse with these two beautiful cephalopods on a daily basis.
>>742268773We know both were and how barren both were. Mkw was locked at like 12-16 racers. Switch2 allowed a better more detaiked world and 24. Same for bananza.They are absolutely using the switch2 buffs well.
>>742278514>Note the "how to get" at the bottomyeah that's for unlockable outfits I'm pretty sure the amiibo ones will be exclusive like usual
>>742268898Precious and fresh.>>742268969Krill yourseld squaggot>>742269096Retard nigger ape snoygger scum.Fuck off.
switch 1 barely runs salmon run without fps drops, low rez and salmonids running at 10fpsnow imagine that but with bigger maps and more special weapon shittery and objectives.
>>742265406I used to prefer bigman out of the three, but Shiver grew on me so much that she's my favorite idol in deep cut because she makes my eel splacoom.
>>742278643stop replying to obvious bait retard
>>742260147I'm not watching that shit. I'm going in blind. This is why many people dont enjoy games nowadays. Too much information.
>>742278703>eelcalm down frye
>>742270115The character in the middle with the hammer is so pretty.
>>742278671Hence why it was turned into a switch 2 game. When are we getting a switch 2 game that’s ACTUALLY made with the system in mind?
>>742278875that's me?
>>742278901do you know how game development works.
>>742273178
>>742278901>game barely manages on old system without cutting corners>game on new system no longer has to cut cornersThis is made for the system retard.
>>742279004we need more bride idols
>>742278671>switch 1 trying to run the spicy hard difficulty endgame versions of raiders stages
>watching vid>squid says veemoa-are...are they allowed to say that?
>thirdies still mad as fuck that they can't pirate Switch 2 games so they cope with "b-but it should've released on 1!"
>>742279004>>742279116
>>742279173we invented it to call them that, so yeah, it's actually our word
>>742279112That was the same case with MKW and DKB; both could barely run well until the switch 2 came around. Same case here, it isn’t a switch 2 game, but a ported switch game
>>742279249It's happened with most games now to the point where they tried it with tomodachi, unaware it's on both>>742279317You're such a dumb faggot if you think it's not vastly improved as a switch 2 game and have no idea about how many games across all consoles have done this.
>>742279317they shared what Bananza looked like in switch 1 and it looked like complete dogshit, they also mentioned there were entire mechanics that didn't exist in Switch 1.that's not a port that's straight up a reimagining of the game.
>>742279317it's pretty clearly was a switch 1 game repurposed since they didn't even add mouse mode, it's not a problem at all and there's nothing wrong with that, probably allowedt he game to add more shit
>shiver's shark playing in the water around the baseCute. Master Mega is cute.
mod potential?
>>742279498Maybe it's just me but I haven't been a big fan of the mouse mode. Tried it in Metroid and Star Fox, was disappointed gyro wasn't an option in SF.
>>742279886Switch 2 is still not moddable sadly, I really want skimpier outfit mods tho
>>7422798860 until it gets hacked
>>742279886>switch 2 exclusivenone
>>742279886none, we just have to settle for blender models
>>742267535OHHH WAGIE
>>742279746...why don't they just ride the shark to Mordor?
>>742267535DJ Octavio must feel really silly after realizing there were much faster ways to destroy Inkling-kind.
>>742267535>>742268271>Pearl's about to buy Splatsvillewould love to see shiver and frye react to that
So is the entire game playable in co op? cause that's what I'm hoping for
>>742281203we need Pearl kaiba
>>742281441maybe not the entire game, I wouldn't be surprised if the starting and ending sequences are single player only but it seems like most stages are able to be played co-op
>>742260412nudging on my dick
>>742281550Fair enough, time to rope some friends into the game with me
This poem is going to be relevant
>>742281703all three are gonna be relevantfrye has a particulary interesting one.

how do squids survive without touching water? how do they refresh themselves in summer? how do they clean themselves?
>>742279317That isn't really what porting is. The Switch 1 would shit itself trying to run either of those games as we know them.
>>742282651golden showers
>>742282651they can use water but can't submerge themselves in it
>>742282693Just look at how bad framerate got in Splatoon's salmon run at high hazard levels.
>>742268271pearl is like>do i have enough small change for that?
>>742282784So you they do the Japanese thing where they sit on a stool and scrub themselves
>>742282693It craps itself running splatoon 3 already. The jump from switch to switch 2 performance is great. Better then some of the games with actual switch 2 content updates.
>>742276773What stores price match?
>mythic salmonidFuck yes, huge relief there are boss bosses, not just harder normal bosses
>>742267152Do you not see the underground areas go down dozens of levels?
>>742260147so, its mostly just single player salmon run?
are the undergound level pikmin 2 caves?
>>742283384Hope there's levels where you have to try and complete them as you're being harassed by things equivalent to the xtrawave bosses.>>742283554I saw a preview saying it's a bit side order levels mixed with usual salmon run and a tight time limit to gather eggs to progress. A boss is on the last floor.
>>742283797>tight time limitIf it's genuinely hard I'll be so happy
No one answered my question if I should buy Splatoon 3 or not. Tell me!
>>742284158Yes
>>742284158If you don't mind buying a primarily MP game on the last legs of its life cycle then go for it
>>742284158Do it. Splatoon 3 is real fun! And even if you aren't into the multiplayer, the single player and the DLC (if you get it) is really cool. But if you play the single player content as a warm up, you might as well give the multiplayer a go too. It's a really good shooter.
The story is so shit in these games.
>>742284172>>742284246>>742284373Im primarily just interested in single player. Last game I played was the octoling expansion for 2.
>>742284431sure, 3's the return of the mammalians follows a similar mission structure to octo expansion but with an explorable hub similar to 1 and base 2's story modes
>>742283797Hopefully one of the endless dungeons acts as a boss rush too
>>742284431You can probably stretch the splat3 sp for 10 hours. You might at well jump in to turf wars for a few hours at least at that point, you'll be familiar with the game and it's not like everyone playing is mlg pro gamers
