Its basically (not so) for everyone.
S A L T of (some) players
I always wanted to play it along with MGT, Celeste, and others. Nintendo sacrificed some of the ips from Animal Crossing.
I absolutely loved the first Splatoon and if there is one complaint to be made about this sequel that I hear from other fans, it’s that it’s more of the same…and that’s just fine by me. The added bells and whistles of new gear, weapons, new hosts, and game modes just makes it all the better. I’m a sucker for a good horde multiplayer mode and it’s especially exciting to me having Salmon Run mode (if only it were available to do at all hours of the day).
By far, this has been the game that has eaten up the most of my hours this past year.
Salmon Run is outstanding, if it was available 24/7 I would rate this a 10.
Graphics, music, weapons, gameplay, and story are all a bit off-kilter but in a good way.
The restrictions on objective-based PvP and lack of ability to set up parties early on kill a lot of momentum behind the game.
Splatoon 2 is a different fun multiplayer shooter that has great potential except it feels as though Nintendo forgot the “Multiplayer” part. Cooperative play with friends is incredibly restricting and hidden behind multiple hurdles. If you don’t have the correct number of friends to play with (either one or three) then you are stuck rolling the dice in mixed-open PvP. Your friend may be able to join the same room as you, and then may be randomly assigned to your team.
This is a great game surprisingly spoiled by Nintendo’s failure to remember that people may want to play with people they know from the start instead of being forced to play with sometimes frustrating random players.
