    A very small amount of this footage features me using sticks and the rest is using motion controls. Why does everyone think I'm not using motion controls at all?

    This was one of the most comprehensive reviews I've seen. Unlike IGN who seems to hate Nintendo and ingenuity giving the game a 4 minute review and barely touching on any of the many new features, you hit almost all of them. The only on being the minigame you can play outside the Shoal to listen to your favorite songs or play a fun and really challenging rhythm minigame, I seriously spent 3 hours in the car beating Tidal Rush and it was a blast!
    I give your review a 10/10.
    Also ARMS is a Switch exclusive! So hype for the next new character they're gonna drop!

    Can we appreciate how the starter gear is aimed so well at noobs. The splatershot jr can ink turf quickly and that is useful when they will probably die every second. Ink armour allpws the team to get a boost in defence which is a tiny help but it works and special saver allows that boost to happen more frequently. And quick respawn is good cos noobs wont be getting many kills but instead dying a lot more oftet. Its so perfect for a noob to have. It makes u a bit less annoyed when u get a noob cos how it is useful for the team cos of ink armour and high ink covering rate

    As a huge splatoon fan I'm glad you took your time on this review. I can watch gamexplain or ign if I want to have buying information on launch, But you're reviewing style makes it fun to watch even if it takes a while to see. I don't really watch your video reviews to influence any purchasing as you in general like quite different games than me. I'd already bought splatoon 2 in launch so I'm really only watching to hear your opinion and because your hilarious. I hope you don't start trying to rush these because that would remove most of the quality especially considering Nintendo isn't sending review copies to you so they still wouldn't be out on launch but would no longer have the quality and rewatchability. Not to mention I would completely burn you out. So please keep it up. 159,000 people can't all have "wrong" opinions.

    You know Arlo, this is like the best online multiplayer game I've played in existence and it's also a lot more fun than the ones on non-Nintendo gaming systems just like the way the Touhou games (like Fantastic Danmaku Festival) are more fun than the Xbox One and PlayStation 4 first-party games. Heck, I've also seen a family child playing it as her first online multiplayer game ever and I've smiled upon. I sure love to thank the Splatoon dev team like that.
    I've loved that this game heavily focuses on mastering our actual skills unlike other online multiplayer games (like EA Star Wars Battlefront 2) where you gotta get ahead of other people by paying real world money for microtransactions. Yeah, I remember watching a lot of playthroughs of the Touhou core games involving 1cc, no miss, no bombs and lunatic difficulty completion and that's also my biggest (and weird) inspiration for enjoying Splatoon.
    Just to clear up that I'm not fangirling the franchise or throwing hate on others. I'm just simply expressing my thoughts and experiences. You know, I've gotten this game but it's not because of the brand itself.

    Just one thing, It's totally possible to play private matches and salmon run with people that aren't your Switch friends using the "Online Lobby" function. You make a room in game, open your Switch Online app on your phone, share the link provided with whoever, and bam! They can join. A bit tedious yes, not explained anywhere also yes, but it does the job decently.

    Back when this game - and soon after, this video - came out, the latter went on my "watch later" list and sat there for a _long_ time. Some time early this year, I removed it as I'd still yet to buy a Switch, and therefore didn't foresee myself looking into Splatoon 2 anytime soon. Around the end of February though, I finally went out and got myself the coolest console I've ever owned.
    It has been some time since I obtained my Switch, and I've yet to purchase this game. But today, I was suddenly struck with the inspiration to look into it. I searched TH-cam for a Splatoon 2 review, and after scrolling past a few eight-to-ten minute videos, I stumbled back upon this 25 minute behemoth of a review. Thank you for providing such a comprehensive peek into what this game has to offer. I think I'll be buying it now, and my only fear is that I'll enjoy it too much and become sucked in.

    i understand where youre coming from with wanting story in the story mode, but as someone who got all the scrolls in splatoon 1, did you get them? i know its optional and not really main story but it provides some surprisingly deep lore.

    As much as I enjoy Salmon Run, I'm not sure if it was available full time I'd play it as much as I am now. In the same way that I only occasionally dip into ranked. And I certainly wouldn't play it a dozen or so times when I played it if it weren't time limited. Like, I get why people are annoyed by it - Video game demands you stick to it's schedule is bad enough when it's in the form of setting aside 3 hours between save points, but when it's a specific mode that's time locked in the most convenient way of playing as hard as Salmon Run is it's positively ridiculous, but at the same time... I probably play the mode more in this situation than I would if it was handled sensibly.
    Whatever happened to bots in shooters, anyhow? While never as enjoyable as human players, up until... I want to say Halo... they seemed like an industry standard FPS feature for when you wanted a friends only match but weren't able to field a good amount of players for that map. Then somewhere around Halo, boom. No bots. Ever.

      D5dizzler Motion controls are way more precise, a fool would stick with stick controls because that's what they are used to, I didn't like the motion either, but I stuck with them, and I got good.

      Okay first of all i was just joking.
      Secondly; i agree. but there's just something about motion controls in a shooter that just feels stiff.
      I actually use them zelda games.

    You and I see Ranked and League modes a bit different. It is disappointing that you can't join friends in Ranked but I feel like this was needed so that friends wouldn't be put against each other when their Rank is on the line. League is a great addition, not only having the superior lobby setup(being able to see/change weapons in the lobby), but the fact that you can play with your friends on the same team WHILE your rank doesn't change. It's all for fun and there isn't any pressure to have to *win* in the game. I see it as a great way to practice for solo Ranked matches since the players in league are often as good or even better than those found in Rank. Everything else in the review was spot on, good on ya Arlo.

    You shouldn't be able to randomly join a friends rank battle because voice chat would give you a large advantage. Also, league battle is essentially the same thing. You don't have to try to get the top of the league, you can just play casually
