I love both hero modes, and they were fun to play through if I couldn’t get my wifi working, or if I went on long car rides. But I really want Splatoon 3 to focus on the lore of the game. Like, everything about the Professor, stuff about Judd and Lil’ Judd, and maybe even more stuff about the Salmonoids and Grizzco (Also Mr. Grizz). Octo Expansion did have a bit of story to it, and I love that. It expanded the lore in a way, and it wasnt just an average “teehee dj octavio stole the great zapfish again lololol” type of thing. I dont know what Nintendo is planning for Splatoon 3’s hero mode, but I hope it’s something good, if not, then something decent. (but please, no more fighting Octavio as the final boss please)
Exactly! Luckily, I think Nintendo saw how much potential the lore has because of Octo Expansion. It isn't confirmed yet of course, but DJ Octavio is most likely not the main villian of the game. I think this really shows that they know what fans want and are trying to make the story mode a more lore based thing!
I think like the upside down city part in Alterna could've the city where the passengers in the deep sea metro go to work and stuff because I remember hearing before I forget where but not all the passengers are doing the challenges that Agent 8 does. So Alterna could be where the deep sea metro is which is probably the splatlands area, because you can see the splat lands from the single player area. That would be a good travel distance for Capn C and Agent 3.
Hmmm... I really like the idea of giving the passengers somewhere to go. I'd be really cool to actually learn more about them! I want to see what they have been up to and what they were doing this whole time, but I think C.Q Cumber mentioned that they aren't allowed aboveground though... I do really enjoy that though! It'd be awesome to see what kind of conditions the passengers live in!
Now that I think about it some more, we are ALREADY IN THE SPLATLANDS while we're in octo expansion since if my theory is correct the deep sea metro connects to Alterna and it's probably in the splat lands. So ya we are maybe already in the splat lands.
it took me ages to play through the hero mode campaign in splatoon 2 mainly because it was so similar to splatoon 1's and it took me 2 days to play through octo expansion ^_^ I was SO invested in the story that I just couldn't stop hahah also your videos are really good! I'm glad I found your channel! :D
Octo Expansion just does such a good job keeping players interested in the story and gameplay! It's good to see proof of that ahah And thanks! That means alot!
I'm positive that the hero mode levels will be completely different than Splatoon and Splatoon 2's level designs. Even though the New Squidbeak Splatoon will be apart of hero mode, personally I'd like if the hero doesn't become an agent member, but as a stand alone character and stand out in his/her own special way as a hero and have his/her own lore, even if having interaction with the Squidbeak Splatoon, but I not so sure if it'll happen, but it feels like it would happen. Having the small fry travel with you through the hero mode will make a good start to the hero despit the living of the surface not having a relationship with the salmonid, but as enemies instead.
I really hope they're different! There's so much potential and room for uniqueness that this game has. Sadly, it's confirmed on Nintendo's website that the protagonist is an Agent. This new protagonist really does seem have a ton of promise being unique though! Heck they seem to already really have a lot going on with the fact that they go and salvage scrap for a living.
Yeah I like it when my player character has some kind of occupation or reputation in them then the standard " hey I'm a newbie that just happened to be in this situation " nothing wrong with that though.
@@NackSploon agreed. And if its the same ill literally date someone who decided to make it thr same on the dveelopment team only to break their heart lol
Octo Expansion is AWESOME! I mean, it basically just has it all, cutscenes, beautiful imagery, new music, more character depth especially for Marina, as we were all curious about her when Off the Hook were first introduced, an epic adventure and something to make us feel good and proud of at the end. Heck, it even made some of us like Pearl more, hehehehe. But anyway, even though the main Hero Mode was alright, but after the epic mess of Octo Expansion, it feels… kind of underwhelming, I hope Splatoon 3’s Hero Mode lives up to the awesomeness and adrenaline rush that Octo Expansion gave us. I have a really cool idea and that is Callie being the ultimate hero of the story!
Agreed! If they went back to a normal Hero mode after Octo Expansion, it'd be really disappointing... Nintendo now knows how amazing a story can be in splatoon, so we just gotta hope that they keep rolling with that. It seems like they are though! Heh, I'm also a big fan of Callie so I'd love to see that happen!
@Nack Me too, I’m glad that they’re noticing that and continuing with it, and the reason I specifically said about Callie being the ultimate hero, is because I was going of off Octo Expansion logic, much like Pearl, I think Callie is the second most underrated character in the game and I think if they have her a major role, like they did with Pearl in Octo Expansion, it might direct more fan attention to her, and even though I love Callie’s bubbly, upbeat personality as much as anyone and there’s no denying that, but I think it would be cool if they did the “Mostly a bubbly and preppy girl, but will become enraged when you mess with her or anyone close to her” trope with her, because it would certainly add to her character, and show that’s she isn’t JUST only capable of being happy, bubbly, cute and preppy, but she cates about those close to her. In this case, Marina (If she’s the possible villain) if you mess with her or anyone close to her, she won’t take that. It would also be fitting for the whole “chaos” theme that this upcoming trilogy seems to have
I really hope they add one of the following to hero mode- -Co-op only levels -More puzzle-based levels that require thinking and not just tons of enemies -Actual NEW Story -A level with a rainmaker like at the end of DJ Octavio’s fight in Splatoon 2 -Maybe ONE weapon that could be unlocked through the mode (not like they did in Splatoon 2) -More unique objective levels like in Octo Expansion (but please no more 8-ball levels I’ve already died inside too many times) -Optional or Unlockable levels!! Idk why, but everyone seems fine with the level format in the first two games. Can we play maybe 5/6 of the levels or unlock levels with sunken scrolls? Also octo expansion’s level format was great where you had several routes to the thangs. Please fix the need to play all levels. Very few games require all levels be beaten for you to progress, and for a good reason! Some levels may not appeal or could seem unfair to certain players, (which is why all the levels were too easy) so maybe just allow them to play a different one! More levels is fun, but being forced to do all of them isn’t exactly ideal. -Less floating islands in the sky- maybe CAVES or SOMETHING ELSE. One of the reasons both hero modes feel similar is because the location is! It looks like we may only partially return to the floaty levels but PLEASE give us more open-ended levels like the octoling levels in Splatoon 2 -Doesn’t appear to be a problem nor am I worried too much, but diversify the enemies. I don’t wanna see octotroopers and twintacles and octocopters everywhere. Maybe have an enemy that orbits you until you splat it (it wouldn’t go too fast) Anyhoo this is just my list of stuff to tweak from the first 2 modes, thanks for reading this :)
Something that I would like to see in story mode is perhaps an increase in difficulty, like more twintacle octotroopers present, and perhaps that one masked enemy that never made the cut. Another idea is that perhaps the levels could be more interesting gameplay wise, like having to deliver something to a certain location or defending yourself against wave after wave of enemies. Also, maybe in the final boss you get to fight off against a full-fledged robot, instead of Octavio's snow globe looking thing. Not sure how the fight would play out, but I honestly think that would be pretty fun
Having a more difficult mode, or just options for difficultly would be really really nice. New players could learn, while more experienced players actually have a challenge. It'd be cool to see a few new changes/challenges in the mode like you said! Just something new and exciting to make the mode feel fresh!
Hopefully they do something more unique. In the artwork we have of the game, Octavio is standing with the Squidbeak Splatoon, so hopefully this means he'll be working alongside them!
@@NackSploon the splatoon community is pretty chill, the worst think they can do is politely disagreeing with you. Your opinions make your videos feel more unique
Heres a theory. (I haven’t played the first splatoon but here goes) do you think theyll either have more ranked modes or keep the same tower control clam blitz etc. I personally think theyll do more a bit of both but who knows we could have a super good squid game (pun intended lol) that none of us havs ever seen before
Honestly I think most ranked modes will come back with the addition of a few new ones. I am not sure if clam blitz will come back as it's mostly disliked by the community. It isnt terrible, but it's certainly the least favorite. And nice pun hehe
I feel like although hero mode tries to be a tutorial, it doesn't really do it particularly well. It teaches the fundamentals, but not very well, whereas octo expansion really helps with mechanical skill (mostly aiming, but dodging and bombs as well). I hope that the Splat 3 campaign has the best of both worlds (and a good story as well, but from the trailer it's looking promising)
That's true. All it really does is teach some movement , but not real things needed to actually help learn combat against other players. The octoling ai in hero mode is ah.. not the best example of real players lol.
it doesnt help that octo canyon levels need to be able to be cleared with 9 different types of weapons, meanwhile octo expansion levels had 3 weapons max
Hmm... I just bought an Elgato HD60 S. I dont think there's anything you can just download on your pc to be able to record your switch without anything else. Maybe there is, but not to my knowledge.

Hopefully they do something more unique. In the artwork we have of the game, Octavio is standing with the Squidbeak Splatoon, so hopefully this means he'll be working alongside them!

Yeahhh, and hero modes levels were just more boring. So not only did you have to play the levels more, but they were wayyy less fun.
No offence, but you might want to use motion controls. Great content though, keep up the good work.
Ahah I want to learn them! I've just for some reason been using sticks since the game released. Thank you for the nice words though!
