Yea I've been wondering why no one has brought that up. Splatoon has always tried to form a relationship where the community influences and impacts the actual game. Changing the time would probably mess this up.
Huh. Well in that case a great turf war game may be even more likely. People don’t go to war until they are adults, so I’m assuming the same applies in the splatoon universe. And with a lot of the splatoon players now being older, it actually makes more sense to have a game set during the war.
@@TyB-g1o we won’t get a Great Turf War game. The direct said that the inklings vs octolings saga is done, and the devs clearly want to move on from it.
My thoughts: The base game campaign could involve the Salmonids! They will be the main enemy force this time around. After all, it was the fishy fiends who tried to disrupt the Grand Fest by invading that special Grand Bowl stage. These Salmon Runs have been involved since S2, and they got BIG in S3. The sea is calling like a siren, and no one will be able to ignore the screams of the Kings...or even something from much deeper waters.
YES! My thoughts exactly!! The Salmonids are gonna want their revenge for all the eggs taken from them. We learn Big Runs and Big Big Runs were only a dress rehearsal for something even more apocalyptic. Someone or something has to be leading and commanding ALL Salmonids. Who? That leader should be the brand new, Thanos-level antagonist going forward. Who knows what's been going on under the waves??
Yall tryna read too much into why people chose past and who chose it to have made it win We'll likely get future and present themed DLCs in Splatoon 4 if side order is anything to go off of, it's not like they're gonna be completely lost to time now.
They should add things to do in the plaza, like sitting on the benches or emoting, maybe being able to interact with other players outside of turf war or battles, it’d make the game interesting. Heck add something like the lockers again, maybe apartments that your friends and you can decorate and you can live in the apartment and mess with stuff, also more customization, hairstyles and being able to change tentacles tips and fingertips, like how Frye and Marina have, and I mean tentacle tip changing like how Marina has, also they should add weather cycles, plus day and night cycles, weather like rain would slowly get rid of ink so you constantly need to put it back down, so matches can change very quickly, foggy does the same as it does in salmon run, maybe night matches add secret places and different maps, stuff like that could really change the gameplay
Or just sell my clothes, especially the ones you get early on so you can receive the chunks out of them for selling them off. This way you can start accumulating chunks for much cheaper since you won't have tons of money or chunks yet. The earlier you get started the better. Or trade chunks for other types. Like say you have a lot run speed you never use but need special charge up. You could trade say 20 of them to someone else who's asking for the speed run in particular. Maybe even have a shop where you can get high priced (old amiibo) gear or old weapon skins and ink tanks, via tons of chunks as currency or super sea snails. The prices are heavily reduced during special events like the splatfests and big run. Special weapons could be rented out (in a similar vein to the grizzco weapons) for the modes splatfest usually takes away. These should have twists or be aestetically different to fit the splatfest theming outside the ink. like clam blitz turns into feeding a creature instead of throwing them into a basket. Win enough times yields you a pearl necklace (no ability slots but you can change its color). Tower control can have fire works go off each time it reaches a checkpoint and the tower can either shrink or grow taller depending on who's losing/winning and where it is. Maybe some kind of low or high heel shoes could be a thing if you win enough games. Splatzones should have fun shapes and you can get a light up key chain or hair clips. There would be multiple different ones.
Well, you might not directly go to the past, but another war might break out with a new species being the one trying to get more turf. Like a "history repeats itself" thing
wants: -A male-majority idol group, a male and female idol duo, or an all-male group -16 hours worth of story mode -apartments or walk-in closets as the next space decoration -have DJ Octavio and Capt. cuttlefish make up and have their feud end -antagonist (and antagonistic faction) relating to the winning result in the final splatfest -variety in body types, and more hair options (especially for masculine options) -have another pet for story mode, with a bit more customizability
I think the main game is gonna continue with the modern system, with some new stuff as always but the main campaign issue this time will be... TIME TRAVEL. Young Cuttlefish, old versions of characters we know, the great Turf War, all of it. Main story takes us to the past... eventual DLC take us to the Future. Different musical vibe for each time setting.
I feel like it could turn into being the Pokemon Arceus of Splatoon, almost a prologue to the original game. It could have more implications of past relatives to the characters we know now, going over the lore we already know but being able to play it rather than read it in scrolls or diarys
story mode should have bigger story. more bosses. intense cutscenes. new antagonists like a rogue inkling/octoling who literally wounded idols and splatted them completely. an antagonist who'd punch you and hates your guts as a dangerous bully. i want like 12 or 17 bosses instead of boring 4.
@@NickMario1 it is understandable that the most content was the weapons kit and hats and clothes but there's not much content added on story mode very much OTHER than DLC Yet it is frustrating that there's hardly any lore or ANY other places we can go like other countries. it's like we are stuck on one place and no more.
Heck you could have the squid research team be a pretty big part of it. Maybe a group of humans is discovered by the inkling/octoling world. They might want human tech, so the campaign could be trying to get it. Of course ink probably wouldn’t hurt us, so maybe inkling and octoling ink causes cell death? A human final boss would also be kinda cool. Or heck maybe the story is about humans trying to integrate into squid society? They could pull a marina and have one of the idols be a human wearing a mask or something.
I think it'd be really cool if, considering with the menu in splatoon 1 showing dorms, they fully implemented this, instead of just a locker to decorate, maybe even the whole (or majority) of the dorm!
Ive only been playing splatoon for a little over a year at this point bit something that was always in the back of my mind was a dorm room kind of similar to how lockers work! Like image you just start off with one room, a bed, and a bathroom and the wallpaper is a little stained and ripped but as you develop through the gane you can buy a larger room, cooler furniture like bunk beds, or if we wanna go all in on the co-op features you could share a dorm with another friend and decorate together! Honestly this probably won't be added but if i were to suggest a feature I would really REALLY want this lol
I bet the story mode will be they find a Time Machine and some new antagonist uses it to go back in time so you have to go back in time to end the fight before it begins all terminator style
My list for Splatoon 4; * They should do body types for Inklings and Octolings. * The next music group to have more males. * The story mode ought to have more than 5 bosses.
@@nyanmurai331 More shapes and sizes to choose from? every single inkling and octoling is the same height, and all have the same bodies with all of the same proportions, but they could easily add in some variety. If you google body types, maybe it'll make more sense, but basically, you can easily get a lot of variety through tiny little changes. Like how some people have wider hips, or broader shoulders
U are literally me. I thought it would be dumb for present to win because nothing would change and i was torn between past and future but ultimitley joined future.
I'm very interested to see what Nintendo will do for the next Splatoon game now that the original trilogy has come to a close. I like the idea of going into the past to see the start of the Great Turf War to see either side of the inklings and octolings with choosing to play as an inkling or an octoling.
A few things, 1. New hair options for Octolings (heck maybe we’ll share some hairstyles with inklings!) 2. The dorms 3. Maybe a feudal era village in Splatoon?
I've always wanted to see Splatoon Project 3, get green lighted by Nintendo, even if it's for Splatoon 4. Either way I'm hyped, I've wanted to play at the beginning instead of hoping in at the end like always.
List for Splatoon 4: 1. This might be weird.. (personal opinion) but playable miis? Idk. 2. Dorms. Please. 3. Maybe like Ninjala something like a dorm, a base that's like a dorm of somethin'? 4. Pets maybe? 5. Splatfest tattoos. 6. RANKED splatfest battles, please. 7. Chapters in story mode. 8. Maybe idk new species when we reach new levels? 9. MALE. IDOLS. 10. Cutscenes in story mode, please.. Idk what else haha.
The problem of a full game in the past in inkopolis Is that the main multiplayer would not have new technology sush as Dualies, splatanas, Brellas, stringers and Splatoon 3 spawnpoints cuz they were not invented at the time
They need to do a local multiplayer mode like other shooters...like a 4 player split screen or something would be fun with friends in same room stuff........
The previous Final Splatfests didn't effect their next game. They were a forced choice, an equivocation; the results would have been the same but framed differently. So the winner doesn't tell us much about the next game, but the theme of the splatfest might.
I’m hoping Nintendo will kind of do a breath of the wild style uncovering history type thing for the next splatoon game. Like finding old weapons/blueprints from hundreds of years ago. I also hope we have more of a focus on returning and glorifying old returning stages rather than butchering them like 3 did. I hope we keep the same characters but add more, I feel like the series will continue to move forward in time but will just focus on nostalgia and learning about/uncovering the past.
I just chose team present because it’s my genuine answer to the question also I started with splat 2 so I guess there’s bias there. I just didn’t want future to win cause I was thinking that it mean that the map design would remain the same and I think it’s at its worst in Splatoon 3
I could see a story that take place during the Great War where you are a recruit to take on a large threat and the team has both inklings and octolings allowing you to pick either
I have an idea for the place in Splatoon 4: Inkotami - a village/town that keeps in touch with its ancient past while embracing the ever changes in the present with anticipation of the unknown future
A "Beginnings" would be better off as another DLC expansion, much like what Octo Expansion and Side Order are. But that's it. I have no desire to see Splatoon 4 centered around this theme and be made a prequel to the first 3 games. If anything, just give Callie and Marie, the winning side in the Grand Festival, a prominent role going forward.
TBF I did only join in like the middle of Splatoon 2 so I don't know anything abt Splatoon 1, however, I do think it would be interesting to show something like being able to work with other agents, which could be NPCs or co-op players. They could make side order a bigger thing, since that's Pearl and Marina's story. Odds are, they'll do the same for deep cut. If all of the past celebrities joined callie and Marie as agents, it would be very cool if each celebrity had their own unique boost or skillset to help with the mission, or kettle, or whatever. I'd definitely like to see more of deepcut's backstory, as they seem to be such interesting characters.
I've never played Splatoon games not Splatoon 1 on Wii U or Splatoon 2 and 3 on Switch, but i'm more interested defienitily Dplatoon 3 and if Splatoon 4 is going to be BIG and for Switch 2 I believe i'm getting it a new Splatoon video is a nice video in my birthday thank you! 🎉😊
What if the story took place in the past and the salmonoids suddenly invaded the place and maybe agent 3 or someone else could save it. I think that would be pretty cool
Really hope they wait longer to release! It would be amazing for us to almost forget about it and then BOOM ….. preview of the new Splatoon game….. and they may even decide to just use a name and not a number, who knows! I will definitely continue to play on Splatoon 3 for a while yet.
Goddamnit that's already fucking 2 final splatfests that i've missed and i really need to start tuning into more splatfests. Honestly, if splatoon 4 ever will come out, then i really hope i don't miss the final splatfest for that game.
Maybe the story could be like Halo Reach's. Focusing on the Great Turf War with your squad of fellow Squids who one by one meet an unfortunate fate till you're the last one remaining to fight against Octavio while you ultimately lose, you unknowingly gave the Squidbeak Splatoon the time they needed to gather their forces for the final Turf War, which you play out as one of their members. The ending can cut back to present day where Cuttlefish along with Callie, Marie, Sheldon, and Octavio are visiting the sight of the final Turf War having finally put their differences beside them following the ending of Splatoon 3. This way not only do we still get new characters but also it can cover their bases for covering the Great Turf War without focusing on the Squidbeak Splatoon.
Dont forget that splatoon 2 already had the effect of the great turf war, such as Octavio leading the octarians (Sry if I spelled that wrong) To the great zapfish for energy. When the inklings won the war, the Octos were left with nothing, so when they found a underground area, they wanted it to be powered. THAT area could save them. Thats what lead to the disappearance of the Great Zapfish, the one soul thing that was powering the enemy, inkings. I *did* get this from the *VERY* long i donno 2-3 or 4 hour long splatoon 1-3 timeline video, but the effects from the war were impacted to splatoon 2. (My opinion that I will say now has nothing to do with the video :3) Now for splatoon 4? Because past won, I think that splatoon will add something about the war, but its unlikely that it will be the effects of it, because of splatoon 2. So we *do* have a chance to get a playable war part. But that would be *VERY* hard, and having that much of a side part to the game *needs* to affect the actual multiplayer mode itself. But splatoon wouldn't go back from their progess, why would they delete their modes *just* to fit a single player campaign? So really, we cant be sure what splatoon will be, Splatoon 1 had marie win, but it affected *CALLIE* then splatoon 2's win for Chaos changed things for splatoon 3, and the lose for team order got a whole single player mode for itself. SO we *will* know that Splatoon will most likely use the other choices for the future game, like Present & Future. *Thank you for reading this super long thing on what I think, im a yapper, so im sorry for this essay :(*
My theory for the next game: - Squid sisters are the idols again -Story mode could be a a recap story of the great turf war being told by captain cuddlefish. And we play as one of his teammates. -DLC could be something involving deep cut -off the hook and deep cut are making music for multiplayer matches
Theres two ways I feel we can see splatoon go based off of the final splatfest aka grand fest. First one could be going all the way back to the Great Turf War, it was mentioned way back in Splatoon 1 it would be a great way to end off this almost decade old saga in another way and finally see what actions started that war, second as one person already suggested, we continue the timeline but have the next game be about uncovering the past and possibly secrets of the humans before their extinction, this could also have the same impact as the Great Turf War path but we learn more as to how all of this even started and how the human race not only made itself extinct along with other species but allowed some other species to evolve
I think It's Probably the area caverns city like flintstones and croods or Someone,The Present lost but They Added DLC like ties together the single player compained on the worlds area depicted From Splatoon 2 Octo Expansion and Splatoon 3 Side order They Call Present Fuse,Present Connection or Present Faded etc. Can Return Tartar and Order I Guess... Abiously Pearl and Marina They Kidnapped and Also the final boss they fused IT! With Relationship.
8:58 but wait... wasn't that the case for Splatlands cephalopods? I might be misremembering but since Frye's and Shiver's families were big/well known and well respected for generations (along with Big Man of course) I'd assume they never had a war and flourished together
Here is a idea Sheldon invents a time machine and you the player go back in time and then fight in the war on the side you choose. to defeat someone like mr.grizz who went back in time to try to get a better ending like flowey in Undertale and then it leads to Splatoon one so then you go back to the future wrapping everything up.
I doubt it’s going to take place in the past. More likely it’s going to be a continuation of the series following the theme of the past such as nostalgia. Remember how splatocaplypse we thought we were going to see a wasteland? Yeah… more than likely it’s going to be a fourth installment of the series only except it’s splatoon returning to its rootsz
I really hope Splatoon 4 will play in a beach, modern themed world/city (like project Splatoon 3) and the main story on a island where deep cut is part of (no squid sisters anymore), a past themed dlc where the story is about the great turfwar.
I rly want a remote island kind of vibe. Like with early day sea-inkling/octling/ray factions. Maybe like warring pirate clans or smt like that. I also want a 4 person boy band for the idols this game.
If team past could mean more development and leaning more about Inkling and Octarian relations before their war I’d be really excited for that. Could have an octarian or multiple octarian NPC’s living on the surface even. Big Man in his concept art was originally considered to even be an octarian. I mean I’m happy they changed their minds there, I love the Big Man we got. Maybe they thought they’d better wait one more game before completely mending the gap and letting octarians live on the surface again. I’d also like the know more about the war and the first Squidbeak Splatoon before the new one
I really would like for the game to focus on the events of the Great Turf War, along with the connections between Craig and Octavio. And as much as I know this may never happen, I would like for the story of Craig and Octavio to be handled almost like the fan comic: Dissonant Melody
imagine all the agents going through a time machine and come out in our human time, scattered around like in sonicc adventure 2 kind of concept, and slowly finding each other through the story so you can, tzhe more agents you unlock thoughout the story, switch player like in gtav, and idk. maybe a point in the story were something hapens to the agents, like a transformation, or just that they find diving suits, so the other half of the story doesnt play in a openworld human city, but in the ocean, at diffrent depths with diffrent ocean bioms, and at the end the deepsea, where they somehow get 12k years back into the future. i mean, there are alot of epic ideas, so splatoon 4 can only be good, i even hope it to be the second best game after gta6, in terms of epicness, soundtrack, and fun and inovation
what i think is going to happen is that there is going to be a spinoff game that is for the grate turf war and the next installment to the main pvp will come latter
The story should take place in the Calamari County before the Great Turf having the game show what happened before the Great Turf War. The Idol group is called Battle of the Bands and it is two idol groups fighting in each Splatfest so in total, there are four idols. One group would represent the Inklings, and the other would represent the Octolings. The New Squidbeak Splatoon saga is over, this one would how the Squidbeak Splatoon was formed. I have an idea for the story mode if anyone wants to hear it.
I really think the campaign is going to be the great turf war and the grizzco equivalent would be the turf war, the stages you play on in that, after "winning" that turf would be added to the multiplayer, would also decrease the number of weapons significantly.
What do I think? I think the Multiplayer does take place after Splatoon 3. But however, the Campaign is about the Great Turf War. Your player enters what seems to be a lab, where everyone is there, the Idols, Cuttlefish, even DJ Octavio. The campaign takes place in a simulation of the past. Helping your player learn the history of the Great Turf War, Assassin's Creed style. The reason for this is probably so they can ace a test they are doing in school. lol
If present won I’m sure Nintendo would have found a way to make it interesting, like with chaos. Chaos ended up being a celebration of all types of cultures, and the closing to the story with octarians, the origins of inkfish, and how humans ‘ hopes and art moved onto the next species.
They said before Splatoon 3 launched, that it would finish up the story arc started in the first game. Seeing how central the great turf war was to that arc, I can’t see them going back to the start of the great turf war. I think it’s more likely that the next game will have some element of the ancient past come into play, but not actually set in the past.
splatoon 4 MAYBE will be set in the great turf war. maybe we’ll get even more lore with the cuttlefish idols, which showed up in splatoon 2? in posters and stuff, i think. i also do want to theorise, maybe we’ll get to see younger versions of cuttlefish and dj octavio. i think we got only scrolls of those two!! i also think we WILL see agent four again. like they did in splatoon 3, with neo agent 3, we will most likely get neo agent 4 aswell.
Seeing how past could be real valid for a story, how about this: Old styles and PROTOTYPES of weapons, elsewise some weapons you won’t see in games ahead of the timeline for the cause of being “illegal or unfair” in the game of turf wars. More about the prototype idea: You get a base weapon, and kinda like a baseplate your able to add attachments to edit it your way, of course this will have to be limited so people don’t just abuse it, but I would see it as interesting if one could make a weapon faster but weaker, or slower that packs more of a punch. I dunno what else to think for the past.
how about this
story takes place after Splatoon 3
we are in a very archaeological city
where the Inklings and Octolings found and studied the past of the humans, and created their whole society and weapons, based on those finds
Feudal Japan, Medieval Europe, Ancient Egypt, ect.
That's actually interesting... I would like that lol
That is actually genius. I only thought of the Japan side of things but those other societies would work as well.

Or just sell my clothes, especially the ones you get early on so you can receive the chunks out of them for selling them off. This way you can start accumulating chunks for much cheaper since you won't have tons of money or chunks yet. The earlier you get started the better. Or trade chunks for other types. Like say you have a lot run speed you never use but need special charge up. You could trade say 20 of them to someone else who's asking for the speed run in particular.

We won’t go back to the Great Turf War. It’s the end of the saga. We’re going to have new lore, new characters, and a new setting.
Yesterday was history
Tomorrow is a mystery
But today is a gift, that is why the popular team is present.
Ashamed of the past
Afraid of the future
In conclusion, depressi-
Present!
Pretty sure the main players for present are the pearlina shippers.
I feel like it could turn into being the Pokemon Arceus of Splatoon, almost a prologue to the original game. It could have more implications of past relatives to the characters we know now, going over the lore we already know but being able to play it rather than read it in scrolls or diarys
story mode should have bigger story. more bosses. intense cutscenes. new antagonists like a rogue inkling/octoling who literally wounded idols and splatted them completely. an antagonist who'd punch you and hates your guts as a dangerous bully. i want like 12 or 17 bosses instead of boring 4.
Or 5
@@NickMario1 it is understandable that the most content was the weapons kit and hats and clothes but there's not much content added on story mode very much OTHER than DLC Yet it is frustrating that there's hardly any lore or ANY other places we can go like other countries. it's like we are stuck on one place and no more.
ah you just want an edgy game
Just say you want Splatoon Soulsborne, bro
Heck you could have the squid research team be a pretty big part of it. Maybe a group of humans is discovered by the inkling/octoling world. They might want human tech, so the campaign could be trying to get it. Of course ink probably wouldn’t hurt us, so maybe inkling and octoling ink causes cell death? A human final boss would also be kinda cool. Or heck maybe the story is about humans trying to integrate into squid society? They could pull a marina and have one of the idols be a human wearing a mask or something.
I think it'd be really cool if, considering with the menu in splatoon 1 showing dorms, they fully implemented this, instead of just a locker to decorate, maybe even the whole (or majority) of the dorm!
Ive only been playing splatoon for a little over a year at this point bit something that was always in the back of my mind was a dorm room kind of similar to how lockers work! Like image you just start off with one room, a bed, and a bathroom and the wallpaper is a little stained and ripped but as you develop through the gane you can buy a larger room, cooler furniture like bunk beds, or if we wanna go all in on the co-op features you could share a dorm with another friend and decorate together! Honestly this probably won't be added but if i were to suggest a feature I would really REALLY want this lol
I bet the story mode will be they find a Time Machine and some new antagonist uses it to go back in time so you have to go back in time to end the fight before it begins all terminator style
I hope it’s not an educational game like Mario’s Time Machine . 😂
My list for Splatoon 4;
* They should do body types for Inklings and Octolings.
* The next music group to have more males.
* The story mode ought to have more than 5 bosses.
I think the story mode should be at least 15 hours long. The past ones have only been like 8.
More Ranked Battle Modes? Shifty Stations Back ? Better matchmaking with good weapons and better Meta???
Body types? What do you mean?
@@nyanmurai331 probably like how Mii's have something... i dont know how to explain it actually
@@nyanmurai331 More shapes and sizes to choose from? every single inkling and octoling is the same height, and all have the same bodies with all of the same proportions, but they could easily add in some variety. If you google body types, maybe it'll make more sense, but basically, you can easily get a lot of variety through tiny little changes. Like how some people have wider hips, or broader shoulders
Splatoon 4 Might be Added for the Nintendo Switch 2.

Tbh since team past won, i feel it would be rlly cool if the game was set during the great turf war and stuff and focused on captain cuttlefish's lore
We won’t get a Great Turf War game. Nintendo said the Squidbeak Splatoon and Octarian Menace arc is done.
Splatoon 4’s hub will probably be inspired by traditional Japanese buildings and culture
my only wish is that they give more attention to deep cut, make em part of the next main story they were so neglected in 3
U are literally me. I thought it would be dumb for present to win because nothing would change and i was torn between past and future but ultimitley joined future.
I'm very interested to see what Nintendo will do for the next Splatoon game now that the original trilogy has come to a close. I like the idea of going into the past to see the start of the Great Turf War to see either side of the inklings and octolings with choosing to play as an inkling or an octoling.
A few things,
1. New hair options for Octolings (heck maybe we’ll share some hairstyles with inklings!)
2. The dorms
3. Maybe a feudal era village in Splatoon?
We need an agent 4 cameo in splatoon 4
amazing pfp

We need a splatoon battle royale. Like 16 players at once.
Yes thats what i been saying splatoon 4 needs a battle royale
@GreatBumi so you want over 1000 missiles being spammed at once?
an open world splatoon game would be nice
Wait, the Past? We have the Octoling War... or the founding of Inkopolis.
I was thinking on maybe the main game could take place in the present while the storymode takes place in the past.
I've always wanted to see Splatoon Project 3, get green lighted by Nintendo, even if it's for Splatoon 4.
Either way I'm hyped, I've wanted to play at the beginning instead of hoping in at the end like always.
List for Splatoon 4:
1. This might be weird.. (personal opinion) but playable miis? Idk.
2. Dorms. Please.
3. Maybe like Ninjala something like a dorm, a base that's like a dorm of somethin'?
4. Pets maybe?
5. Splatfest tattoos.
6. RANKED splatfest battles, please.
7. Chapters in story mode.
8. Maybe idk new species when we reach new levels?
9. MALE. IDOLS.
10. Cutscenes in story mode, please..
Idk what else haha.
MALE IDOLS, omg, yes. But we have Big Man already. MORE MALE IDOLS
??? Splatoon 3 already has cutscenes.
A male dominated idol would be a disaster. This is a shooting game against women.
I think Splatoon 4 should take place at a tropical resort away from Inkopolis and Splatsville.
It's real bur as an april fools version
Ah, I see what you’re getting at! Seeing the past would be so awesome, and it would help with lore!
The problem of a full game in the past in inkopolis Is that the main multiplayer would not have new technology sush as Dualies, splatanas, Brellas, stringers and Splatoon 3 spawnpoints cuz they were not invented at the time
“We hope you can witness the epic finale of the splatastic saga.”
Doesn’t anyone remember that from the direct?
This. People need to realize we won’t get a Great Turf War game because Nintendo wants to move on from that.
They need to do a local multiplayer mode like other shooters...like a 4 player split screen or something would be fun with friends in same room stuff........
Today is the last day Nintendo could possibly announce the Switch 2 reveal for September. You better get that Tingle costume ready 😫😫
The previous Final Splatfests didn't effect their next game. They were a forced choice, an equivocation; the results would have been the same but framed differently. So the winner doesn't tell us much about the next game, but the theme of the splatfest might.
Remember when deep cut need to have their one agents, I was on team present
I’m hoping Nintendo will kind of do a breath of the wild style uncovering history type thing for the next splatoon game. Like finding old weapons/blueprints from hundreds of years ago. I also hope we have more of a focus on returning and glorifying old returning stages rather than butchering them like 3 did.
I hope we keep the same characters but add more, I feel like the series will continue to move forward in time but will just focus on nostalgia and learning about/uncovering the past.
If it was before the great turf war, having Octavio and Cuttlefish as the new news people would be interesting
I just chose team present because it’s my genuine answer to the question also I started with splat 2 so I guess there’s bias there. I just didn’t want future to win cause I was thinking that it mean that the map design would remain the same and I think it’s at its worst in Splatoon 3
I could see a story that take place during the Great War where you are a recruit to take on a large threat and the team has both inklings and octolings allowing you to pick either
What if agent 4 returned, that would be epic
I have an idea for the place in Splatoon 4: Inkotami - a village/town that keeps in touch with its ancient past while embracing the ever changes in the present with anticipation of the unknown future
A "Beginnings" would be better off as another DLC expansion, much like what Octo Expansion and Side Order are. But that's it.
I have no desire to see Splatoon 4 centered around this theme and be made a prequel to the first 3 games.
If anything, just give Callie and Marie, the winning side in the Grand Festival, a prominent role going forward.
TBF I did only join in like the middle of Splatoon 2 so I don't know anything abt Splatoon 1, however, I do think it would be interesting to show something like being able to work with other agents, which could be NPCs or co-op players. They could make side order a bigger thing, since that's Pearl and Marina's story. Odds are, they'll do the same for deep cut. If all of the past celebrities joined callie and Marie as agents, it would be very cool if each celebrity had their own unique boost or skillset to help with the mission, or kettle, or whatever. I'd definitely like to see more of deepcut's backstory, as they seem to be such interesting characters.
The fact I was on team Past- THE WAY I SHRIEKED WHEN WE WON. GOOD JOB ALL THREE TEAMS
That logo would actually be dope
I've never played Splatoon games not Splatoon 1 on Wii U or Splatoon 2 and 3 on Switch, but i'm more interested defienitily Dplatoon 3 and if Splatoon 4 is going to be BIG and for Switch 2 I believe i'm getting it a new Splatoon video is a nice video in my birthday thank you! 🎉😊
You should definitely play Splatoon 3. It’s really fun and online is great
@@lagzie2301 okay I need to found Splatoon 3 in a cheap price
What if the story took place in the past and the salmonoids suddenly invaded the place and maybe agent 3 or someone else could save it. I think that would be pretty cool
Really hope they wait longer to release! It would be amazing for us to almost forget about it and then BOOM ….. preview of the new Splatoon game….. and they may even decide to just use a name and not a number, who knows! I will definitely continue to play on Splatoon 3 for a while yet.
Goddamnit that's already fucking 2 final splatfests that i've missed and i really need to start tuning into more splatfests. Honestly, if splatoon 4 ever will come out, then i really hope i don't miss the final splatfest for that game.
Maybe the story could be like Halo Reach's. Focusing on the Great Turf War with your squad of fellow Squids who one by one meet an unfortunate fate till you're the last one remaining to fight against Octavio while you ultimately lose, you unknowingly gave the Squidbeak Splatoon the time they needed to gather their forces for the final Turf War, which you play out as one of their members. The ending can cut back to present day where Cuttlefish along with Callie, Marie, Sheldon, and Octavio are visiting the sight of the final Turf War having finally put their differences beside them following the ending of Splatoon 3.
This way not only do we still get new characters but also it can cover their bases for covering the Great Turf War without focusing on the Squidbeak Splatoon.
I want it to take place in the old ancient turf wars between inklings and octolings. That would be an amazing and interesting thing to implement
Dont forget that splatoon 2 already had the effect of the great turf war, such as Octavio leading the octarians (Sry if I spelled that wrong) To the great zapfish for energy. When the inklings won the war, the Octos were left with nothing, so when they found a underground area, they wanted it to be powered. THAT area could save them. Thats what lead to the disappearance of the Great Zapfish, the one soul thing that was powering the enemy, inkings. I *did* get this from the *VERY* long i donno 2-3 or 4 hour long splatoon 1-3 timeline video, but the effects from the war were impacted to splatoon 2. (My opinion that I will say now has nothing to do with the video :3) Now for splatoon 4? Because past won, I think that splatoon will add something about the war, but its unlikely that it will be the effects of it, because of splatoon 2. So we *do* have a chance to get a playable war part. But that would be *VERY* hard, and having that much of a side part to the game *needs* to affect the actual multiplayer mode itself. But splatoon wouldn't go back from their progess, why would they delete their modes *just* to fit a single player campaign? So really, we cant be sure what splatoon will be, Splatoon 1 had marie win, but it affected *CALLIE* then splatoon 2's win for Chaos changed things for splatoon 3, and the lose for team order got a whole single player mode for itself. SO we *will* know that Splatoon will most likely use the other choices for the future game, like Present & Future.
*Thank you for reading this super long thing on what I think, im a yapper, so im sorry for this essay :(*
My theory for the next game:
- Squid sisters are the idols again
-Story mode could be a a recap story of the great turf war being told by captain cuddlefish. And we play as one of his teammates.
-DLC could be something involving deep cut
-off the hook and deep cut are making music for multiplayer matches
I don’t think so bc this is the ending for the new squidbeak splatoon
We need new idols and we need to move on from the Squidbeak Splatoon.
Your theories are so cool and I was kinda thinking that too 😅
Theres two ways I feel we can see splatoon go based off of the final splatfest aka grand fest. First one could be going all the way back to the Great Turf War, it was mentioned way back in Splatoon 1 it would be a great way to end off this almost decade old saga in another way and finally see what actions started that war, second as one person already suggested, we continue the timeline but have the next game be about uncovering the past and possibly secrets of the humans before their extinction, this could also have the same impact as the Great Turf War path but we learn more as to how all of this even started and how the human race not only made itself extinct along with other species but allowed some other species to evolve
I think It's Probably the area caverns city like flintstones and croods or Someone,The Present lost but They Added DLC like ties together the single player compained on the worlds area depicted From Splatoon 2 Octo Expansion and Splatoon 3 Side order They Call Present Fuse,Present Connection or Present Faded etc. Can Return Tartar and Order I Guess... Abiously Pearl and Marina They Kidnapped and Also the final boss they fused IT! With Relationship.
8:58 but wait... wasn't that the case for Splatlands cephalopods? I might be misremembering but since Frye's and Shiver's families were big/well known and well respected for generations (along with Big Man of course) I'd assume they never had a war and flourished together
My thoughts exactly
There will be more fests and big runs, but this was a send off for the final update
Here is a idea Sheldon invents a time machine and you the player go back in time and then fight in the war on the side you choose. to defeat someone like mr.grizz who went back in time to try to get a better ending like flowey in Undertale and then it leads to Splatoon one so then you go back to the future wrapping everything up.
Young and strong Capt. Cuttlefish and Squidbeak Splatoon storyline imminent?
I doubt it’s going to take place in the past. More likely it’s going to be a continuation of the series following the theme of the past such as nostalgia. Remember how splatocaplypse we thought we were going to see a wasteland? Yeah… more than likely it’s going to be a fourth installment of the series only except it’s splatoon returning to its rootsz
We might see Calamari County!
How to summarize Splatoon in a nutshell: An unexpected GOLDMINE!🏅
We are the Splatoon 4.
_("For Faith" from Yakuza 4 starts playing)_
We need Splatoon Island to become canon.
I really hope Splatoon 4 will play in a beach, modern themed world/city (like project Splatoon 3) and the main story on a island where deep cut is part of (no squid sisters anymore), a past themed dlc where the story is about the great turfwar.
I rly want a remote island kind of vibe. Like with early day sea-inkling/octling/ray factions. Maybe like warring pirate clans or smt like that. I also want a 4 person boy band for the idols this game.
I love the prequel idea!
As long as there're no weird timeline jumps like Zelda I'm cool with that. I just wanted OTH to win, man.
I completely agree. Not sure, but maybe they may even take on onboard that April fools dlc and make that happen too.
If team past could mean more development and leaning more about Inkling and Octarian relations before their war I’d be really excited for that. Could have an octarian or multiple octarian NPC’s living on the surface even. Big Man in his concept art was originally considered to even be an octarian. I mean I’m happy they changed their minds there, I love the Big Man we got. Maybe they thought they’d better wait one more game before completely mending the gap and letting octarians live on the surface again. I’d also like the know more about the war and the first Squidbeak Splatoon before the new one
I really would like for the game to focus on the events of the Great Turf War, along with the connections between Craig and Octavio.
And as much as I know this may never happen, I would like for the story of Craig and Octavio to be handled almost like the fan comic: Dissonant Melody
Even though I picked present because I wanted off the hook to win, I defiantly wanted past to win, glad they did
imagine all the agents going through a time machine and come out in our human time, scattered around like in sonicc adventure 2 kind of concept, and slowly finding each other through the story so you can, tzhe more agents you unlock thoughout the story, switch player like in gtav, and idk. maybe a point in the story were something hapens to the agents, like a transformation, or just that they find diving suits, so the other half of the story doesnt play in a openworld human city, but in the ocean, at diffrent depths with diffrent ocean bioms, and at the end the deepsea, where they somehow get 12k years back into the future. i mean, there are alot of epic ideas, so splatoon 4 can only be good, i even hope it to be the second best game after gta6, in terms of epicness, soundtrack, and fun and inovation
You could be right!,
Oh you’re SOO right!
what i think is going to happen is that there is going to be a spinoff game that is for the grate turf war and the next installment to the main pvp will come latter
It would be nice to be able go back to the basics of Splatoon
The story should take place in the Calamari County before the Great Turf having the game show what happened before the Great Turf War. The Idol group is called Battle of the Bands and it is two idol groups fighting in each Splatfest so in total, there are four idols. One group would represent the Inklings, and the other would represent the Octolings. The New Squidbeak Splatoon saga is over, this one would how the Squidbeak Splatoon was formed. I have an idea for the story mode if anyone wants to hear it.
Id like to have all of characters in 4
I really think the campaign is going to be the great turf war and the grizzco equivalent would be the turf war, the stages you play on in that, after "winning" that turf would be added to the multiplayer, would also decrease the number of weapons significantly.
What do I think?
I think the Multiplayer does take place after Splatoon 3. But however, the Campaign is about the Great Turf War. Your player enters what seems to be a lab, where everyone is there, the Idols, Cuttlefish, even DJ Octavio.
The campaign takes place in a simulation of the past. Helping your player learn the history of the Great Turf War, Assassin's Creed style. The reason for this is probably so they can ace a test they are doing in school. lol
We might only see squid sisters in the next game because past won and probably a sequel of deep cut and off the hook because they lost
Or we won’t see any of them in the next game.
@@Corgipon again that would not make sense bc the splatfest was based on splatoon 1,2 and 3 and since past won it would be a scenery of splatoon 1
Ideas
Past:great turf war
Present:continuing current storyline
Future:something new
If present won I’m sure Nintendo would have found a way to make it interesting, like with chaos. Chaos ended up being a celebration of all types of cultures, and the closing to the story with octarians, the origins of inkfish, and how humans ‘ hopes and art moved onto the next species.
"The Present" winning could have meant a groundhog day type story.
Ok so glad that past won

@@Moutchitos DNI
I think that it would be really cool if cuttlefish and octavio were the idols 😎👍
I love splatoon so much so excited for switch 2 and also great vids :0
Congratulations, this will either be about the great turf war thing. Or it will be a game without octolings
we should also get a switch port of splatoon 1 and be able to play everything we currently have on the next nintendo console
In Splatoon 4 there have to be more Overworld locations we can travel to and things to do.
I like the idea splatoon 4 is in the past and I will like to see how they create splatfest
7:28 imagine the Dlc or generally the story mode being like ur in the trenches as if it was ww1/2 on a giant map
They said before Splatoon 3 launched, that it would finish up the story arc started in the first game. Seeing how central the great turf war was to that arc, I can’t see them going back to the start of the great turf war. I think it’s more likely that the next game will have some element of the ancient past come into play, but not actually set in the past.
I remember that someone at Nintendo said that splatoon games take place in real time. For an example Splatoon 2 takes place 2 years after Splatoon 1,
splatoon 4 MAYBE will be set in the great turf war. maybe we’ll get even more lore with the cuttlefish idols, which showed up in splatoon 2? in posters and stuff, i think. i also do want to theorise, maybe we’ll get to see younger versions of cuttlefish and dj octavio. i think we got only scrolls of those two!! i also think we WILL see agent four again. like they did in splatoon 3, with neo agent 3, we will most likely get neo agent 4 aswell.
Seeing how past could be real valid for a story, how about this: Old styles and PROTOTYPES of weapons, elsewise some weapons you won’t see in games ahead of the timeline for the cause of being “illegal or unfair” in the game of turf wars.
More about the prototype idea: You get a base weapon, and kinda like a baseplate your able to add attachments to edit it your way, of course this will have to be limited so people don’t just abuse it, but I would see it as interesting if one could make a weapon faster but weaker, or slower that packs more of a punch.
I dunno what else to think for the past.
