So how is Splatoon 2? Is it better than the first game?
My girlfriend said I could use her debit card to buy a game because I went to my job interview today so I'm thinking about getting Splatoon 2.

Jesus

Its pretty much like the first game, but there's more to do out the gate and salmon run is a really needed addition.

>So how is Splatoon 2? Is it better than the first game?
imagine the first game with a different singleplayer campaign and some more weapon types in multiplayer
its almost the exact same game
>>
Its a good game
Good luck with that job
You're probably going to need it, judging from that post
>>
Salmon Run is a big deal, it single handedly makes the game way better than the first one. Other than that, it's pretty much more of the same
>>

This is obvious bait, you don't care about Splatoon 2, you're not a hopeless autistic cuck, you just want (you)s.
Too bad /v/ is too retarded and this thread will soon get 400 replies asking details about your made up situation and also shitting on Spatoon.

Splatoon 2 is a deluxe port that actually cuts the good shit from Splat 1. Salmon Run is cool but limited time so honestly fuck this shitty ass game.

Meanwhile launch splatoon was literally just Splat zones and turfwar, with the level cap being 20 and having like 5 maps.
To not talk about 4 hour cycles.
>>
>>386535839
>>386535852
We're not in 2015. There's no point to compare the barebones release of the first game to this one. We weren't coming off of that, we were coming off of a full game. And now we went back to early access crap.

Why would you tell a lie like that basically makes you look like a complete beta cuck?

It's not a strawman. What sequel releases with less content than the previous game and actually gets praised for it?
>>
>>386534921
when salmon run is going there is a total of 4 game modes you can choose to play, with 3 of those modes changing every 2 hours.

Shifty Station will return every Splatfest.
>>>only new mode is only available at select times
Hardly. It spends way more time being available than unavailable. If it was open 24/7 the bonuses would break the game.

Comparing endgame Splatoon 1 to Launch Splatoon 2 is hardly fair, especially since the devs plan on giving S2 the exact same treatment as S1 in terms of content delivery. Plus, Splatoon 2 had a much stronger launch than S1, this is fact.
When you realize the devs intend to space updates out over the course of 2 years, this """barebones launch""" makes sense. The fact that you went and got S2 anyway, knowing the dev's intention of spacing the content out, and complaining about it is pretty stupid if you ask me.

>>386536283
>Dualie Squelchers are new in every sense but looks
They're functionally identical to the old Dual Squelcher, except for the dash move added to it.
>There was a new weapon for every class minus Splatlings and Sloshers in the base game.
They still cut so many of the old weapons to add as updates later on.
>Shifty Station will return every Splatfest.
Doesn't count. I can't play it any time but a specific 24-hour period once a month.
>If it was open 24/7 the bonuses would break the game.
Then have it without bonuses.

This content delivery system was fine in the first game because there was nothing to compare it to. Coming off of a complete game into an early access one is an insult. Keep the drip feed content, but have enough to actually keep people coming back. Nothing substantial has been added so far. Even Splat 1 got 2 weapons and a map every week for the first few months.
>>
>>386528858
I'm gonna ignore your bait and pretend you were asking seriously.

The base game is almost exactly the same as the first game but it's improved in every way. So it is better, but the only real changes are Salmon Run, a new single player campaign, League Battles, a few new maps and weapons, and a few QoL improvements (double exp and double money tickets, ability chunks, clothing with different main abilities through splatnet, etc)
>>
>>386528858
Every time I see a new game for this thing, I'm grateful I wasn't suckered when I already had a perfectly fine Wii-U.

>Zelda
Got it for the Wii U
>MK8D
Got it for Wii U
>ARMS
Literally no interest
>Splatoon 2
Worse than the first one, which I wasn't interested in to begin with.
>1-2-Switch
Stupid as fuck
>Upcoming Mario game
After 3D World (came with my system), I have no interest in ever playing a 3D Mario again. Last 3D Mario I played before that was M64 for the N64.
>>
>>386536587
League Battle isn't really anything new, it's more of a QoL improvement.
>>
>>386536469
then why dont release the game in two years when its actually finished and isnt just a rehash that is more expensive AND has less content than its predecessor
>>
>>386536662
I consider it new because it's technically different from Squad Battles, albeit only in slight ways
>>
>>386528858
It's like expansion pack of Splatoon 1, just uglier.
>>
To be honest, Splatoon 2 isn't really worth it if you have 1.
It's pretty much the exact same shit.
Maybe in the future when it gets more content.
>>
>>386528858
Your girlfriend sounds like a nice person OP.
>>
>>386536720
It's much better than the first game. My main complaint is that there is no content. I'm already burnt out after 2.5 weeks.

I love this game, it's fantastic.
>>
>>386536469
that's bullshit and you know it. The reason they had updates was because the game was rushed and unfinished. There's no reason a sequel to a 5 million selling game has half the amount of maps as it's predecessor at launch
>>
>>386536815

>>386533834
>worse tickrate
Unfortunately.

>worse grafix
No.

>worse campaign amd final boss
True.

>worse specials
No and this is coming from someone who loved the Kraken in the first game. No more panic button invulnerability specials makes this game better.

>less content
You're comparing current Splatoon 2 with Splatoon 1 with updates.

>worse characters
The Squid Sisters is definitely better than Off the Hook. Removing Marina would improve this game, though.
>>
>>386536947
Most of the content is already included in the game, it's just arbitrarily locked away. Which is why you don't need a patch to get any of the new weapons or maps.
>>
>>386536971
nah
>>
>>386536873
I sure did. I knew what I was getting when I bought it refurbished from Nintendo. It's good for Mario Kart 8, Smash, XCX, Zelda, and some VC games ported from the Wii that was given to me a few years earlier. I enjoyed the fuck out of XCX, thought Zelda was ok (but would constantly wonder otherwise), and play MK8 and Smash regularly with friends me and the wife invite over.

>You're comparing current Splatoon 2 with Splatoon 1 with updates.
Why shouldn't he?
>>
>>386537003
because you already paid for the "free" updates by buying a game where they intentionally held back 50% of the game for updates. Free updates are dope, but not at the cost of making you wait years for what you should've had access to from the start.

I hated this about Splatoon 1, I hate it about Splatoon 2. There's literally no reason to withhold content that's already completed and disc locked. The worst of which is the Brella which is perfectly functional but if you go through the effort to unlock the hero version you can't even use it yet.
>>
>>386537067

>>
>>386537252
>It's not free because i say!

sad!
>>
>>386537262
I didn't mind it much in Splat 1 because there was a fairly constant stream of content. We've only gotten weapons so far in 2. And only one per week.
>>
>>386535909
I don't know what you expected from Nintendo. The first one had locked content on-disk that they released as a "free update" even though it was laughably barren on release. Splatoon is Nintendo's anti-consumer mindset at it's worst and I've never supported it nor will I ever do so.
>>
>>386537280
The N-Gage was portable. Didn't make it good. If I had to pick one of the current portable consoles, it would be 3DS. If I had to pick a second, it would be Vita. The Switch has nothing I want, and is overpriced as fuck for a handheld.

Splatoon 2 didn't make me go through an entire level and face the final boss multiple times and then face the bosses final form at the end and if I died I had to do the whole thing from the beginning.

You do realize that the updates and Splatfests kept interest the game alive longer, right? (which was good for a new IP on a small playerbase that the Wii U was) Once the updates stopped,it noticeably slowed down and after the last splatfest, it was nothing but Japs 80% of the time.

The devs felt it was a good model to keep interest in the game (which is why ARMS tried to do it) so there would be a reason someone who stopped after a while,comes back and sees there's double the maps and a fuckton of new weapons that the devs had to add a speed up button to the weapon seller dude's explanations

Anything that segregates groups by race is RACIST. We're brothers, you're being the perfect idiot for the jews by following this movement that turns you against us.

I get that there are racist dickheads in the world, but racism stopped being systematic ages ago. Creating a move meant to fight something that does not exist is the equivalent of feminism fighting the patriarchy, it only made an enemy out of men.
