84% on 51 reviews. Does sound like a bit more of the same but that's not really a bad thing for a heavy MP game. Mostly tweaks and small additions, although a few reviews praised the single player.

Hopefully people are enjoying splatoon 3

I'll just wait for a sale because the first 2 games I played the weekend that they came out and then never touched them ever again

I enjoyed the lore of the series more than actually playing them

Maybe it skipped some additional tutorials since I imported save data, but does this game just not ever explain to people that they can super jump to allies

It looks like a bunch of tutorials got split up and pushed to Judd in the battle lobby - I got one about super jumping a while ago. I haven't worked my way through all of them yet so there are a bunch.

Yeah, I'm just trying to work through his dialog since he used to give sea snails for player levelups last game and I want to get my hands on some ASAP. It's just that sometimes he forces you to do a simple tutorial that I don't know if you can skip out of.

Salmon run - I'm now paranoid about burning specials to celebrate post-run when there's the looming threat of overtime. My last run of the cycle cleared the extra wave with 1 second on the clock, the first time I cleared it (in 3 attempts).

So the tri-stringer is just complete shit, right? Nothing about this seems worth it. If the exploding arrows spread ink further than the initial impact it might be at least something, but as is I don't really see the point. I guess it locks a spot down for just a moment but the paint coverage is just so terrible.

I've heard the other bow is good though, haven't seen anyone use it or try myself though.

Did we really need two Splatoon games on the same system. I thought the next time we'd get a Splatoon game would be on the next Nintendo console.

What does this game do that Splatoon 2 already don't?

Splatoon's only been around for 2 ninty systems so yeah this is the first.

As for what's new about it, I never really stick with the games that closely so aside from the expected new maps/weapons/campaign/abilities I don't really know beyond the Splatfest change to Tri-Color

but I'd imagine Spla2n would be pretty dead now, and Splatfests stopped a whiiile back.

Probably could've waited for a new system but I dunno when that'll even be and I doubt there'd really be that much more included even if it were. It's not like Splatoon 2 was really breaking new ground. The series certainly needed to be reinvigorated, but whether you actually want to jump back in is up to how much you enjoyed the games so far.

I think it's meant to be a player-killer with the charged vertical shot (from jumping), since it's easier to get multiple hits that way, and a triple hit should be a kill. It's probably better to just use something like the Squiffer though.

Took a couple hours, but I finally beat the bonus mission in story mode. Thoughts below:

The first stage is just such an endurance run without a checkpoint. Having to redo all the stuff you've proven you can clear every time is such a drag especially since there's a decent amount of dead time. Second/third were a cinch, last stage was challenging but in the fun way - I ended up trying to abuse the ninja squid to clear out the last wave and eventually getting there. I think my total lives spent ended up something like... 15/3/3/20? But stage 1 is just so demoralizing.

Now to remember to go into story mode every day to burn off my 60k extra power eggs >_>.

Anyway now I can focus on my true objective: maintaining Eggsecutive VP in Salmon Run. At least I don't get disconnects nearly as often there.

why even use these then

Yes - once you have 100% map completion on all 6 areas, there's something in the first area that you can spend 999 eggs on once a day to get a random duplicate item, pack of tableturf cards, or a meal ticket.

PSA if your team already has enough golden eggs and things are looking bad, just run away (unless you're on high tide and that's not really an option)

so many times I've had teammates just corner themselves trying to revive someone or get more eggs and die when there were five seconds left and they could have just run away and won

I did not realize just how much more potential Anarchy Series had for ranking points than Anarchy Open - I got more points from one 4-3 run (though there were 3 other non-counting losses in there from disconnects) than from going 23-10 in the rest of my app history (174 vs. 164 net points). I guess at least the high-achievers will be in S-rank already?

I know the Splatfest is going on I just wanted to rush to 1200 points for the Salmon Run shift and not worry about it after that
