- In this video, I took an in-depth look at Splatoon 3's newest campaign, Side Order. Just figured I should say (one more time) that this whole video is based off of my opinion. Hope you enjoy!

Porl bot is the best and nobody can convince me otherwise
When I did the final palette she carried me lol. So many times did she throw the perfect splat bomb to save my butt. So many that I can’t count it.
Those ink strikes and bombs saved my life too many times to count
I think that Octo Expansion was just incredible on your first time playing through it, all the twists and surprises were amazing, but Side Order feels like it keeps a slightly lower, but consistent level of fun, instead of the brilliant first few times of Octo expansion, and then getting a tiny bit old after a while. They are both still brilliant DLCs, just for different reasons in my opinion. Great video by the way, looking forward to the next one🎉
I wish I could play Octo Expansion for the first time again. Yeah, I think that’s a great way of putting it. Thank you! I’m glad you enjoyed it! :D
That was a nice way of explaining it
Eh nah. OE is great even after the first play through. The music, challenge, and story is better (also inner agent 3 is 🔥🔥).
Side Order was mid. Period. It felt like the whole thing was scrapped and remade at the last second plus the story is weak and feels rushed at the end. The gameplay loop gets incredibly stale after the 2nd play through.
You get the outfit to use in battles, it's automatically a 10/10
lol real
Bro you need more subs such high quality videos
Thanks! That's how I like to make em!
Honestly. I don't think Side Order is good, but I don't think it's bad either. It has a few pros and cons and I'd call it decent at best.
Me who bought side order for the lore:
Me when no side order lore:
Just like me for real
this is inkredibly high quality for 400 views
This video is nice and all... but where's Agent 4!? (BTW this video was genuinely great) How did you change the color palette for the platoon 3 loading screen btw. (I feel weird asking for video editing tips ngl)
The palete for the begining of the game load screen is based off of the plaza you last saved in. Maybe that carrys over to the load icon?
I ACKNOWLEDGED AGENT 4 WE NEED MORE OF HER 😭😭 I just found a 30 minute loop of the splatoon 3 loading screen on TH-cam, screen recorded it and messed around with the colors in Premiere Pro until it was the purple I wanted lol. Hey no worries dude! Always feel free to ask! I’m always happy to help out a fellow content creator :D
i really enjoy ur vids, they are interesting and the editing style is rly nice
Appreciate it! Glad you like em!
I was expecting a lot from Nintendo for this dlc, since they’ve already made Octo expansion, one of my favorite dlcs to date, and my expectations were definitely met!
(Even if the story is pretty copy/paste from all of the other stories in splatoon 😂)
Yeah, overall it was pretty good. Nintendo always nails it when it comes to Splatoon tho
For rogue-like enjoyers like me, this DLC went pretty hard.
Even as someone who’s never played a rougelike, I really enjoyed it
@@Joyconic you should definitely check out some rogue-like games.
There are some VERY good ones out there
@@Joyconic one of my personal favorites is called "Wizard of Legend" super underrated game
Honestly I thought it was great! Of course it's difficult to top Octo Expansion, but Side Order does a lot of innovative things for the franchise. It's really fun, and I think it appeals to both casual players and competitive players alike. Enjoyed listening to your review!
Considering Side Order was my first rougelite, I thoroughly enjoyed that new play style. Yeah, I think that’s a great point that it appeals to all players. Thanks! I’m glad you enjoyed it :D
@@Joyconicsame here
Never played a roguelike before this… stressed me out so hard idk if I can say I liked it…
I’ve cleared every palette and it’s definitely better to replay it now that there’s less stress, but it was such a horrible feeling to lose before that idk if I can say it’s worth it.
Yeah I completely agree. I was kinda on a time crunch to beat the main story (in order to make this video) so I was really focused on clearing it lol
Something I find a bit strange is that Side Order's plot is all just about Marina.
Like you take her off the equation, and theres nothing to do.
Marina made the memverse.
Marina made Pearl into a drone.
Atch is there cuz of Marina.
There woudnt be no plot or conflict. Is not very well written imo.
5:25 exactly!! its like “so you’re trapped in a stimulation and there’s a villain that you need to defeat”
i like it a lot, but now im too busy grinding for all the new gear and weapons in the new season
Lol, relatable
Yeah, you pretty much described everything the same way that I felt it too, DEFINITELY wish we got more 4
Poor agent 4 D:
Its all the level times added up to make one time :) I didn't get it either at first lol
Ohhhh okay, that makes alot more sense. Thanks Zintendo!
Side Order is not awful or boring. It has its fun. But there are 2 major flaws that just smear it too much.
No Agent 4. Sorry, parallel cannon and the little text we got are not enough.
Going for all chip color badges is misery. If you are going for them, you know what Im talking about.
i like dualie with mac fire rate :3
Ooooh that sounds fun! I should try that one lol
SO Speedruns = Charger with Quick Charge and Aimbot, beats levels in 1 second
I’ve sunk too many hours to call it bad. I’m sorry
I think Side Order was easily the worst storymode of all Splatoons. The gameplay gets very repetitive, the characters are empty shells and the story is genuinely boring. Its the fifth final boss fight that follows the same structure, theres no build up and the story being told through the dev diaries was insanely lame. You dont even get a conversation with the people whose soul you free, I think they failed here completely.
They could have made the story a mystery where you get new bits of information with every playthrough and after like 5 or so you can make a final run where you beat the story. Marinas octoling friends could have been actual characters and on the first playthrough smollusk reveals that he is not a rogue AI again but specifically designed and we would have to find out who his creator is. Marina, the octos, Acht, maybe TarTar, etc could have been the suspects.
Or make this thing about 8 getting their memorys back. Every time you beat the tower you get new agent 8 backstory, this would have given SO some emotional depth.
Imo this dlc was lacking in content... not worth $30. And the fact that there's significantly more post game content than main game content is just sad. It's also way too easy and way too short and the way it's structured is kinda dumb. Would not recommend this dlc
its $25
While I agree with what you said, I still think it’s a fun playthrough, maybe just not as good as octo expansion
This video is pretty good, and covers what I think a lot of people thought about Side Order as a whole. About Acht, though- first of all- they aren't female, and are only referred to in-game and on Splatoon's official posts as they/them. Secondly, they had a lot of character, be it in dialogue or unlocked diary entries, but I agree there wasn't enough.
At first I liked Octo Expansion when it came out, but over time people overhyped it to the point I liked the DLC less and less. I still like OE, but not as much as I use too.
The moment I first played Side Order, I thought it was ok. Not amazing, but not awful. The one thing SD has over OE is the Pearlie drone.
Yesss the Pearl drone 😂😂
I don't like to think on one DLC being better than the other. It kinda makes it look like if one is better, the other one is worse. Each one has its own merits and are really enjoyable and very innovative on their own. For me, I was dissapointed that it didn't had streamed designed level experiences like octoexpansion or splatoon 3 campaign.
However, I have been really enjoying this side order experience. I would have never tried that genre if it weren't for this DLC. Totally worth it.
Personal thing with me: your opinion meant a lot less to me when you said this "actually tests your skill" I found Side Order very, very easy and tedious, and even Octo Expansion gave me a bigger challenge.
Hello Joyconic. My name is Isaiah and I have something important to say to you. God loves you and like any father he wants to help you and keep you safe especially from the devil. But I am not just speaking to you about this I am also talking to your fans about this. God loves you all. An we all need his help. Do not be afraid to come to him. For he will accept anyone. Mexican, russian, texan, EVREYONE! So come. Repent, be babtized, show mercy, give, I can go on and on. But it is not going to be an easy. There will be obstacles. Things that make you mad, stuck, or make you just want to quit. But if tou keep through all the obstacles of life. I garantee you it will be worth it. Happy memorial day weekend. Shalom Shalom.
NGL side order > octo expansion
Side order made me realise octo expansion flaws:
enemy design reused
Boss exactly the same but harder
The final boss is just popping the bombs
Side order has much more depth when comes to gameplay
why is everything on your channel so negative
