Splatoon vros...
>>743742558>splatroon
>>743742558One of the few I'm skipping, looks boring honestly.
>no new idolstalk about phoning it in
>>743742558So a 7/10 if it was a PC game
Well this series is never getting another spinoff ever again.
>STILL milking a 2015 Wii U gameSplatoon was raped to death years ago, now they're just raping the corpse
>Midtroon
So it is pretty obvious in the west there's mandates being put out that Nintendo games have to be underscored this generation. They're still outselling Snoy and Xbox exclusives with the mandate. Sad for them.
It's decent for a $20 side game Eric
>>743742558>high 70s low 80s as per usuallike every other game in the series, i'm in for a good time.
>>743744096I hope you feel the same way the next time a non-nintendo game gets a low metacritic score. The way you guys glazed Zelda for getting a 97 metacritic score is quite hypocritical, when you then declare that an 80 metacritic score is also fine.
>>743744436splatoon always reviews like this, and i've never been disappointed by their singleplayer offerings
That's really high compared to God of War Sons of Sparta
>>743742558The shovelware machine has released, guess what, another shovelware game. What a surprise.
>>743742558Deserved.Only Splatoon 1 was good the rest is just uninformed switchies not realizing they're playing the cash ins
>blast havers don't like to walkit's woomover....
>>743742558>80That's with the Nintendo Tax so it's a natural 90.
>>743742558Consistent with how it scored for every other game in the series. It will continue being one of Nintendo's multimillions sellers.
>>743744436>you guysIncluding me that hates BOTW? Am I part of the "you guys"?
>>743747587He probably struggles to understand that nintendo can pump out enough variety that people don't need to glaze everything released. They have multiple series in different genres and styles coming out frequently instead of a single big release being all they'll see for at least 6 months.It's unusual for someone to like every single nintendo title because of that variety.
>>743747473>Octo Expansion only has 82Jesus Christ journos are retarded.
>>743748794Doesn’t have the depth of even an average COD campaign. Reviewers are harsh on it because they’ve played a lot more games in the genre than Nintendo fans have.
>>743749725Why would you try to lie about the mechanical depth of CoD?
>>743747473>"IT MAKES MONEY, YA KNOW!"Slop eater argument.
>>743742612>One of the fewbuddy there are only 4 games in the franchise skipping anymore than this is already 50% of every splatoon game at minimum
>>743749725Actually squids have a much greater depth than your average cod
>>743749725Name one COD campaign that contains physics-based billiard puzzles.
>What if we took our highly successful competitive multiplayer game and ripped the competitive multiplayer out of it?If anything I'm surprised it's as high as it is. Japs will buy it for the squid lolis as usual.
>>743750146Kek
>>743750201Dude thats unironically what I want. Splatoon is finally big enough and has enough cred to warrant spin offs and games that have a different focus. Plus like most anons on here suspect its a good testing ground to push the series mechanically without having players automatically fucking bitch about muh meta and carry what people like about this game back to a mainline title
Dicks and crows. Now.
>>743750568Squidpan kart shooter when
>>743750201pvp games are for fags, this is better.
>>743750658Do you have the one that went like this?>timestamped picture of a wii u gamepad>”splatoon is awful”>someone points out that it can’t be played with only a gamepad
>>743750827Wasn't that ACfag?
>>743742558it will do finet. snoy
So what's the chief complaint this time around?
>>743751093Nothing really, just the Guardian complaining that it's like every other co-op shooter on the market.That's about it.
>>743751190This. As another anon pointed out the overall MC score isn't even out of line with the other games, just like every other time the buck broken li'l niggy has made these threads.
>>743751190I must be blind if I missed all the shooters like splatoon out there.
>>74374255880 is good you retard
>“I’m going to judge this game on what I think it should be even though it was clearly announced and marketed as a new genre for the series”.wut?
>>743750201Splatoon 3 is still active, retard-kun.
>>743751915>I don't like what this game is trying to be and my evaluation of it is reflective of thatMakes sense to me.
>8/10 is considered bad nowwtf is wrong with you guys
>>743742558 80 is good though, literally green
>most complains water down to "not enough story, too much gameplay"The Last of Us did irreparable damage to the gaming industry
>>743742712>Not wanting a dedicated Deep Cut gameNGMI
>>743756135Game Journalists hate actually having to play the video game.
>>743756135They have always disliked or downplayed Splatoon because of too much gameplay.
>>743742558Sonic Racing Crosswords won...
>>743756887Just like /v/
royal mail are delivering raiders tomorrow!
>>743751190how does a review calling a game mediocre get a 40 as a review? wtf is this review scaling.
>>743747473Octo expansion for an 82 that's fucking ridiculous
>”Splatoon is among Nintendo’s most ingenious inventions of the last decade: a series of shooting games whose paint-splattered turf war nature means being bad at shooting is just as valuable - if not more so than - being good. […] Ultimately Splatoon Raiders makes it difficult to remember all of this” - 2/5, The GuardianThey had fooled themselves that they contributed with their 0 K/A in their handful of turf war matches, and now they’re being filtered and crying
Damn, so without the Nintendo bonus it's a 70? Nintendo just hasn't been on the ball lately. A lot of 6/10 and 7/10 games recently. The Star Fox remake was shit. They're gonna have to bet it all on the OoT Remake this winter.
>70oof, another Nintendo mediocrity
>>743759927Nintendo bonus stopped being a thing when they blacklisted all western joruno outlets.
>>743742558Hyped for this, only hope it's as good as it looks.
>talking about journalist faggot scoresWho fucking cares?
>>743760610Like 90% of gamers who based their opinions off reviews, like most sane/normal people who buy products. I had a friend one time who didn't read reviews on anything he bought, and I called him a retard. He got mad, and we never spoke again. Go waste your money and drown in buyer's regret because you bought that thing that the majority told you was shit and then it turned out to be shit, but you didn't want to believe anyone. It's people like you that usually get scammed the easiest and lose the most money. That's why my ex-friend now is sitting on 100+ physical Switch games that he's barely played and keeps buying more.
>>743760784You sound like an insufferable faggot who doesn't deserve friends.
>>743760784Damn, sounds like your friend is doing great without you if he's got such a collection going on.
>>743759351If they had ever even played any of the other games at all. They could've heard that the series is known for not requiring you to be "good" at shooting and think that applies to the singleplayer experiences as well.
>>743760784How do you know that he barely plays them? You don't talk anymore.
>>743742558> 80Higher than I would give it. This is a solid 6/10 at best, and only if you live and breathe salmon run. How bored do you have to be, to buy a single player version of a multiplayer game? It would be like if Mario Kart only had 1v1 couch vs and Grand Prix vs CPUs. Missing the whole point and thirty years of tech advancement.
>>743762103It's 4-player althoughbeit
>>743762103the game has co-op thoughie
it looks fun maybe i'll get a switch 2 if there's a raiders bundle
I don't know how but I somehow ended up preordering this at gamestop and on amazon I was very confused when I received a call last night saying that my preorder will be available to pick up on Thursday At least Amazon let me cancel that one without issues
>>743762184>>743762210it's primarily single player althoughiebeit. discount salmon run is the equivalent of 2p Mario Kart. This is $60 for what is otherwise a side mode in a full Splatoon game. Keep gobbling up the slop and getting less for it.
Splatoon is a game where it's incredibly evident if someone is pretending to have played it or is just bad with basic controls.
>>743762329There is in japan. It's just the console with raiders pre-installed and no extras though.
>>743762103It’s for people who like Splatoon but don’t care for PvP, but prefer single player and/or co-op PvE. >But you can do non PvP stuff in Splatoon 1-3.Not as much of, compared to a full on dedicated game of it, which be a better value for that specific audience.
>>743744840Not enough people acknowledge splatoon 2 was a glorified splatoon 1 port
>>743744840???? If splatoon 1 was good then why wouldn't the same thing on different hardware also be good
>>743762672What are you on about, they aren't even on the same engine.
>decide to look at the lower reviews>one is just complaining about (optional) gyro controlsNever trust critics.
>>743742558So, is it a single player horde mode?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x3pE9YRCM2g
>>743762103Post your save file.
>>743744840based>>743762672>different weapons>completely different meme kits>new meme gear abilities>zero (0) specials from Splat1>no dedicated screen for your map or touch controls for super jumps and certain specialsFuck off
>>743762525I can't believe Splatoon is a first person shooter now.
>>743750658>we are 10% of the way toward Splatoon being a 20 year old franchise
>>743763872Oh, right, I forgot:>disgusting unlikable ugly "idols">completely reimagined and rewritten dialogue
>>743764303>reimagined and rewritten dialoguesplatoon 1 and 2 both did this retard kunsplatoon 3 is the only game in the series to (mostly) stick to the jp text when localized
>>743764540It did not because I played the European version.
>>743747005The Nintendo Tax isn't real.
>>743762525>game reviewer complaining about controlsSomeone post the webm of Polygon's DOOM gameplay
>shit bait thread gets used instead of the actual thread
>>743765121>he says, not posting anything in the actual thread
>>743764303Pearl and Marina are better than Deep Cut
>>743765457I don't agree but I don't like them that much either.
>>743762525>DAILY SAARthey aren't even hiding it
>>743762525>move-the-Switch-around-to-aim systemIs this idiot using gyro aim in handheld mode?
>>743767109I think you might be broken if you're replacing and words unprompted.
>>743765034
>>743767270Are you not???
>>743742712we dont need more they peaked at 2
>>743744436Kill yourself sealiontranny.You lost
>>743762525>removing the worst mode of the game is bad because I don't get jimmies for sitting in spawn like a retard
>>743768689off the hook is the worst group though
>>743759927you are so delusional
>>743768765nice opinion, let me ignore it
>>743758624Radical anon.>>743759351Fucking embarrassing
>>743762525so one retard reviewing whats not there instead of whats thereand another retard that doesnt understand videogame controlsAmazing
>>743760161Nintendo bonus was never a thing to begin with.Urinalists through ever gaming generation bitched nintendo never pulled outprrmiums review bonuses, nor did review resorts, etc
>>743760784Ive literally havent read a game review or looked up scores to determine a purchase in 20 plus years
>>743762551that's sucks because i really loved the splatoon 2 green and pink joycons. fuck stick drift
>>743759351what the fuck did I just read
>>743768765wrong
>>743751747They are talking about the structure and objectives rather than gameplay.
>>743762525>it's ALMOST a FPS???>that nigger babble second reviewWhat?Holy fuck reviewers are so fucking worthless at their job. God damn
Alright, I'm convinced. I just pre ordered. This will be my first Splatoon game.
>>743762512LmfaoHoly shit you’re right. Tendies were paying $10 for performance patches to soften them up into paying $60 for splatoon’s single player mode.
>>743759351journalists have been parroting the>splatoon is heckin wholesome because kills don't matter and even if you suck (like me) you can le contribute!!!retardation since day one and are clinging to it a decade in despite the fact it doesn't make any sense if you think about the game's core gameplay for more than two seconds
>reviews are literally journos getting filtered by difficultylmao nintendo wins again, no one else is making actual videogames
>>743768015Not sure which is the bigger humiliation ritual.ThisOrThe cuphead tutorial
>>743768803>>743769054>worst music>pearl's design is dogshit>shoehorned into everything after their debutbut none of that matters because marina makes you hard or something
>>743769191Still ignoring your shit opinion
>he says, continuing to reply to anon's posts
>>743769161this has me so excited I was worried it would be to easy. But if it's filtering this hard it must be great
I legit don't understand what these mongoloids problem with the game isit seems to have a lot of content for a decent price and splatoon's gameplay is absolute top notch, then again the first game in the series on wii u got a 81 score as well so I guess this just means I'm going to stick to my opinion game journalists should be mass murdered (in pokemon pokopia (in real life))
Is it going to unlock at midnight tomorrow? I wouldn't mind getting physical for this, but I can also see myself just getting the physical release later.
>>743762525First review links to a 404 error.Second review is limey-babble from some retard at Daily Saar.
>>743769541Urinalists can't handle real gameplay for oneTwo, still actuvely trying to nuke the switch2 and it's success because sony isdying and thus they'lk be jobless if nintendo reigns supreme
>>743769191TRUE they hated him for speaking the truth
>>743742558>80 score being considered bad now
>>743742558I'm gonna buy a physical copy tomorrow, looks fun
>>743742558Splatoon has to be one of Nintendo's most consistent IPs.8/10s across the board with no outliers.
>>743769751>game good because it's on the switch 2Any non biased opinions about this game please? What even is it? If's just solo campaign shit then no thanks, I dropped it on splatoon 1 since the level design was always the same boring garbage
>>743771237it's a solo campaign that also can be played entirely in co-op
>>743770605it is when absolute goyslude like mixtape gets a 86
>>743771285then no thanks bye
>>743771237>game good because it's on the switch 2this but unironically, you're indian
here's a neat video showing the insane mobility of the mechanic and the verticality of the level designhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lZ_J11aolA4
>>743771487Ok, I was a bit concerned because it was so much skipping shit, but the bit at the end with the zipcaster rebound on top of the slammin' lid? That was sick.
>>743742558so is this a borderlands game with splatoon's gameplay mixed in? haven't seen the raiders direct, but the game itself sounds like fun. also would've be cool if anyone has a link to anything from the soundtrack, that's always hype in this franchise.
>>743750102I think he meant Switch 2 games.
>>743771907>haven't seen the raiders directwatch it
>>743771329The level design for this isnt similar to 1’s campaign, retard
>>743772304Even simpler, they can just watch the overview trailer released today. It’s the direct in half the time
>>743743093>high review scores>TAKE THAT YOU FUCKING SNOYS>middling or low/underperformant review scores>y-y-yeah well they're just out to get nintendo ANYWAY :(
in opencritic, splatoon raiders' score is the same as splatoon 3, 2 and octo expansion
>>743772456seethingenjoying horizon 3 as your sole exclusive in 2027 lmao
>>743772456The current state of gamers is pathetic, it's like looking at the retards that care about politics. Probably a lot of overlap between direction brained my team/your team faggots.
>>743742558Don't care I will be playing on the hardest difficulty and have fun killing fish WITHOUT PAY
>>743772456awwwww he's mad because people called him a snoy.... how cute!
>>743750827Yo.
of course the bongs who shit on raiders gave saaaros a 8/10 lmao
>>743751190>the GuardianSame paper that had its film reviewer claim he was self-harming watching Mario Galaxy.
>>743742712Wait until the secret final boss Salmon Sisters.
>>743769191fryes design is the real dogshit. pearl is way better
>>743762525>Stevivor>” When I originally reviewed Splatoon, I bemoaned a lack of variety — it was Turf War, and more Turf War. Splatoon 2 added Salmon Run — a single-player campaign — to the mix in an attempt to add some variety. I didn’t play or review Splatoon 3, but Jay sure did… and it didn’t pique his interest.”>” At every point playing Splatoon Raiders, I merely felt like I was going through the motions. Bouncing between it and Marathon — as I’m level 60 and want to hit level 100 before this season ends simply so I can get my final PlayStation Trophy in it and never play it again — I felt like both games were more of a job than anything resembling fun”
>>743774367I just checked their other reviews and they basically like everything, from AAA slop like james bond to indie games like denshattackand faggots will claim nintendo games are overrated
>>743774558you got shit taste man
Every british person over the age of 30 has this weird grudge against Nintendo. Meanwhile zoomer British girls can't get enough of it
>>743774558Holy GAY alert batman
>>743762525If those are the arguments on the lower score reviews than this is a 100/100, I also saw the retarded guardian review
>>743760161>>743768942The "bonus" was about multiplats getting slightly higher scores on Nintendo platforms. Anyone who tries to use the term on an exclusive is an idiot.
>>743774367That movie was fucking shit though. Miyamoto LITERALLY said it was build from 30 second clips that could be Tiktok-ified. It's a genuine dystopian product.
>>743774367No, that was The Times. The Guardian's review wasn't much better, though.
>>7437745843 games in over a decade and they STILL don't know about the campaigns or the ranked modes?>Salmon Run — a single-player campaignFucking hell.
>Low scores don't matter when they're for a game I like.>Low scores matter when they're for a game I don't like.
>>743774584>that many em dashesnonzero chance this is an ai-written review
>>743775134Low scores don't matter when they’re given out by retards, retard. That’s why people are posting quotes
>>743774584This guy gave Mixtape a 10/10 btw
>>743775134Worse: the Tendies don't even know if the game is good or not; they defend it without having even played it, just because it's from Nintendo.Imagine calling a review "bullshit" without even playing the game...
>>743775219Alright anon, how do you know the game is good. Have you played it?
>>743775304snoys do it too?
>>743775372
>>743775134I will remember that next time they make fun of another game with 80 score.
>>743775304>Imagine calling a review "bullshit" without even playing the game...Happens with like every major release, I still remember the Starfield defenders and that didn't age well. Tendies went ape shit over the 8.8 for Twilight Princess but after playing it, I think many of them accepted that score.
>>743775448this but unironically
>>743744436you're such a schizo retard lol
>>743774584>Complaining about it whilst playing marathon>gives marathon a bad review about it being a job as he grinds seasons>somehow thinks anyone playing splatoon cares about this>whilst getting things about splatoon wrongThis guy did not play it at allIsn't helped by the transflag logo and one of their headlines being about some gay shit>>743775304When you see a sequel to a game you like and recognise features that you wanted from gameplay clips then it becomes pretty evident very quickly if the reviewer has refused to engage with the game or is outright telling lies about the game, the ones >>743762525 do this very clearly.
>>743775304You mean like you do for every fucking game that comes out because your a gigafaggot?
>>743775369I never stated it’s good. I simply stated that the opinions of retards can be discarded. The quotes in question aren’t “bad opinions,” they reveal the reviewers to be braindead
>it's another snoy samefag thread
>>743775304I spelled it out for you, retard >>743775632
>>743775134no, game journalists are subhumans and everything they write should be disregardedthis goes for (You) and your inane shitposts as well, sony mumbai employee
>>743775604And the review for Marathon on his site is a 9/10 lmao
Having Game Journalists complain about a game's difficulty is like, the best recommendation a game can get.
>>743775604>Isn't helped by the transflag logo and one of their headlines being about some gay shitsay what you will but nintendo saw all that and still gave him a review code.might be a bit of life hack, make a review site and shove a bunch of trans shit on it and maybe you'll get free review codes because of it lmao
>>743775803So he's offloading what he hates about one game into another to the detriment of the latter game. Very professional.
>>743742558Isn't this the score of nearly every Switch 2 game nowadays?
>>743774990Holy based
>>743774584>Splatoon 2 added Salmon Run — a single-player campaignThe first game had a single player campaign and Salmon Run isn't even a campaign. This sped used JeetPT to write his drivel.
>>743775895Say what you want about Nintendo, but at least they're consistent.
>>743742558Funnily enough, it was the first Splatoon that convinced me how little number scores mattered. When Splatoon got a 7.9 by IGN, one of their complaints was the lack of a voice chat. To me, this wasn't a problem, in fact, I preferred it as I found most chats to be cancer. It clicked to me that shouldn't take reviews so seriously or at least, read other opinions to get a better picture. I've been pretty satisfied with my purchases since.
