@@Languagestudy4 Most of my opinions came from the single player parts of the game, the only problem I have with the multiplayer is the splatfests and the match making and the MAPS. Most of the maps are Garbage.
@@prestonandtom9337 Most of my opinions come from the single player aspects of Splatoon 2, I like the features of Multiplayer. Well…most of the features.
I also miss the presence that oth had in Octo expansion. Idk but they seemed so strong and just like cooler yk? I mean just look at nasty majesty. That song has power. Seems like they just threw together a dlc with side order. It would’ve preferred if they took way longer to get it out than it be that much worse than Octo expansion
FOR REAL NASTY MAJESTY IS THE BEST OTH SONG also the concept art in the first side order trailer...................... i wish a lot of those ideas were kept in the final game i REALLY wanna know what was going on there
Marina was only written like that in the english localization. The way she's written now is how her character is intended. That localization was just really bad if you ask me just for how inaccurate it is, even if it's kinda funny.
I felt like there was infinitely more passion in s2 development and content than 3, the only time I felt like s3 surpassed s2 personally was the grand festival.
Parallel Canon can actually be hard or easy depending on the palette you build, the more cracked it is the harder the boss is (they have the same palette as you)
the change in dialogue from being sometimes very mean in s1-s2 to sweet all the time in s3 really reminds me of animal crossing and how less meaner the islanders have became in the newer games.
to be fair, i think the splatoon 3 multiplayer is better in many regards, but not ALL. i think the overall amount of content in splatoon 3, while having more than s2, isn't enough to justify being a sequel, and the quality of a lot of the content isn't that high. the only thing that makes it truly better than s2 is now after the grand festival came out.
I use the Amibos I got to get to the grand festival, I might buy Callie and Marie next or get the side order Off the hook joints because of that 🔥DRIP🔥
and s1 has more passion than both of them... (somewhat related actually but, i feel like this with a lot of first installments in a series... feels more like the creator's vision purely without being muddied by fan expectations, throwing stuff at the wall and seeing what sticks, it has a lot less polish but that makes it feel more "human" in a way... idk how to explain it)
Saying this as someone who’s been here since the first game, honestly with the context of how many years have passed since splatoon 2’s release it makes sense to me that Pearl and Marina have mellowed out a lot, both of them would be in their late 20s to early 30s As for the DLC I really loved Side Order, I liked the different dialogues offered depending on what weapon you decided to use and clearing them all was more satisfying than I can say (especially 8’s palette since I did it with only 18 chips inserted = 2 active hacks) Smollusk learning to just take the L was funny too and learning its story through the weapon notes was really cool I think Alterna was the best hero mode we’ve gotten, ditching the repeated gimmicks from octo canyon and repurposing it to be more like OE was perfect I never understood comparing after alterna to inner agent 3 tbh, After alterna felt like a test of precision and patience while inner agent 3 felt like a challenge based entirely on skill and memorization (and all for a damn toothpick 😭) Anyway that’s it for my yapfest, I think 3 is much better for many things and I hold it close to my heart now since release day (Seriously though where the hell is agent 4)
I like your reasoning, Alterna is a good story until you try to fit it into the Splatoon Timeline, Alterna even has tests which is confusing because…who is doing them? (Aka why would humans make random tests similar to Octo Expansion?) Deep Cut (to me at least) feels like NPC’s which is crazy because this is their own game. 💀 Hell DJ Octavio had a redemption arc that we couldn’t see… Side order was good to me because it at least made people remember old characters like Agent 4 (there’s a difference between bringing back a character and just a mention.) The gear was amazing (I choose drip over abilities) and the first fight with order goes crazy! As for after Alterna, you are absolutely correct, why is this level with no respawn points being compared to a Splatoon player on THAT 🌿. I’m still on after Alterna (due to the fact that I don’t visit Alterna often) but I beat inner agent 3 at least 4 times. (Due to the fact that I revisit a fight to aim train.) Now for Agent 4….(I miss them.) Imagine getting this much glaze by the squid sisters just to be missing 💀
@@VectoB iirc I’m pretty sure the alterna logs explain the reason for why there are missions, because there are details about the fall of humanity and how the remaining survivors adapted to it, i would theorize that Mr Grizz probably had something to do with it as well since he went from being a normal bear to a mutated creature that is hardly part bear anymore because the ooze has clearly consumed him (btw i think Mr Grizz is next to Tartar for title of the best splatoon antagonist imo) As for Deep Cut while i think whatever screen time they had in alterna was great i wanted more, considering they’re technically part of the squidbeak splatoon i see them coming back as the guides for the next game because as much as i love the squid sisters i think they’ve gotten enough screen time as is Now for agent 4, i get that lore wise she hasn’t come back because she wanted to focus on studying but by this point she’d already be in college or have graduated, her being weirdly forgotten in side order is really weird to me especially since there’s artwork of her and 8 being roommates
i like pearlina but i like it *because* they cyberbully eachother in s2, not because they're overly sweet, but that's just me edit: also the meanness of marina was partially translation
Ngl They made the dialogue bland af in Splat 3. That mess is BORING. I feel Splatoon 2 had more going on in general. The stages, the splatfests, the music everything just had more flair. Like when I lost in Splat 2 or 1 sure it sucked but I got to jam to the defeat music meanwhile splatoon 3 is just like a participation trophy like “wow. You sure tried :|” That shit is boring as all hell. Like bro go back-
Bro facts, Marina glazing pearl constantly in Splatoon 3 had me shocked cause she was out there COOKING pearl in Splatoon 2 Splatoon 3 story is also bland too, the surprise “Mr. Grizz” is the least surprising thing ever and the final part of the story mode is a copy from Octo Expansion.
@@emilicat2967 unless you don’t like difficulty spike in the missions compared to Splatoon 2’s hero mode, (and the bosses) than YES! [[I might be glazing too much though.]]
That video was dope. My favourite part was how you praised Octo Expansion, cuz it really is the best DLC ever I replayed it more than 10 times. Side Order is so bland and boring, I didn't bother to continue after Marinas Bossfight 💀 Splatoon 2 all they way lol
splatoon 3 never surpassed peak splatoon 2, in defense of side order tho i love the gameplay loop to bits and find myself wanting to play side order much more often than i feel like revisiting octo expansion. i never cared for the dialogue tho, i like the story implications but a lot of it feels too sweet and overdone. as for alterna, i couldnt give a damn, its the worst storymode in the series in my honest opinion, i just dont care
Alterna was really teased as the best just for it to be the worse, Octavio looked like a prominent character, only to barely get any screen time. Marie Captain 3 and Callie just stood there and Cuttlefish should’ve stayed dead. I mean for crying out loud, we never see the dessert in the beginning of the game until the Grand Festival. Side order on the other hand feels unoriginal in terms of plot, splatoon 2 already did that and plus, things looked way better in the teaser. I do agree that Splatoon 3 NEVER surpassed peak Splatoon 2. The Grand Festival was the closest.
The few things I like about Splatoon 3 are the Grand Festival (aka THE BEST thing about S3), Return of the Mammalians,Salmon Run, and Tableturf Battle. I like S3, BUT I just prefer S2. 3 is just NOT AS fun as 2 in my opinion. Sometimes I only play 3 JUST to use the Splatoon idols amiibo and hang around the Grand Festival Grounds.
Return of the Mammalians is the worse in these story modes because I have way too many questions that get left unanswered and it’s also difficult to fit it into the timeline.
@@VectoB Bro, did you see what they got the idles wearing during the final fest?😭🙏 that quite literally the only splat fest I didn’t care about. And the final fest music was cheeks.
@@sherylmotion8347 grand festival splatoon 3 was peak splatoon 3 but didn’t pass peak splatoon 2. I only really like the Spicy Calimari Inkcantaion festival mix and ink me up mix
@@VectoB it was a lot worse because in splatoon 2 some people complained about the first games diologue, so it got toned back. But tbh off the hook and deep cut kinda are boring characters to me so 💀
I’m so glad I’m not the only one who thought splatoon 2 was better 😅 I loved the splat2 hero mode way better than splat3 as well 😞 I like, never replay splat3’s hero mode whilst I always went back to replay all the stages in splat2 I’ve never played any of the dlcs so I can’t give an opinion on it tho ;P
This isn’t to say Splatoon 3 is a bad game, but Splatoon 3 has more flaws than Splatoon 2
Splatoon 2 has bigger flaws though. Splatoon 2 is poorly balanced and has a lot of badly designed kits.

The Grand Festival, Agent 4’s fan base and the first Overlorder fight is what carried Splatoon 3. I’m deadass 💀💀
I think splatoon 2 had the same team of dev's that worked on splatoon 1 while splatoon 3 had dev's who are new and worked on acnh.
@@pizzaroll3356 it has always been the same team from the start, the same people are still in charge
