Well it was a different time when Splatoon 2 came out, and you didn't have to PAY to play online(despite Splatoon 2 using P2P networking which is MINIMAL load on Nintendo's part).
Why exactly?
Theyre both not large changes from the previous ones. And any numerical sequel typically leaves some behind on each subsequent entry. And they're coming out much, much later in the system life cycle. Just normal stuff for almost any series with direct sequels.
Thanks for the smug cuntery, much appreciated.
Yea, Splatoon was usually summer and Xenoblade Choronicles 2/Torna released were Dec/Sept. Xenoblade 3 was initially holiday!
Yeah the grapple thing is pretty cool, rollers and brushes have a crazy good tool to close distances really easily. Have they said what the odd "spin dash" like jump is before? It caught my eye in that video, but I don't recall seeing it before hand. It happens at the 2:45 mark of the video. Wonder if that is just a movement tool everyone gets now? I dig it nonetheless. Btw, I also love the Tachikoma special as well lol.
I haven't heard any details honestly, so it was all new to me today. Someone else might know more about it though. Some of the new specials look sick. I also loved that one with the drones that surround you, then all shoot lasers I think.
Yeah, the title is confusing.
lol what? COD sold absolute bajillions for years and still does incredibly well..
The games have substantial single player campaigns and the comment you replied to was only mentioning a few of the changes (that they thought major). You do know that core gameplay of any franchise doesn't change that much? It's largely what defines most.
Thank you for the laugh.
For sure! And i really appreciate the consistancy of releases. Most of their big franchises are one per console, but i like that they continue to iterate on these games in a relatively short amount of time
Hopefully they will bring us some dormant classics too like Earthbound, Golden Sun. Id love to see a 3D Donkey Kong too
Yes it's what I talked about it's called the squid roll. It's one of the two new movement mechanics introduced in Splat 3, the other one is squid surge. It's not clear how they work exactly but squid roll looks like a short jump you can use to instantly cancel your momentum and turn in the opposite direction while squid surge is a superjump type of move off a ledge. Apparently some competitive players also analyzed the footage in the salmon run trailer and realized that the squid roll move had some amount of super armor so it might be able to tank a few enemy shots when used.
COD is one of the most criticized franchises in the industry for churning out the same product yearly. Are we creating our own realities now just to justify this looking like the same thing from the last two games?
Good thing that Splatoon doesn't release yearly.
It's also one of the most praised, you just shut that out. And each year they have a new single player campaign and add new or change mechanics to gameplay. If you want a go at cash grabs, then sports games are where you should look.
Something tells me you were never going to play it anyway, so why do you care?
Loved the gyro on the Wii U.
That Wi-Fi seemed really powerful, right? Must be that.
And people say we are experiencing drought this year.
