Splatoon

Ok, I can safely say I am shit with the Charger. My favorite is the Roller. I got 12 kills vs 2 deaths in one game with it.

You and I both!
 
It's too bad I wasn't able to play the demo beyond the first one, since I have to go out or they are too early. On the other hand, I am glad I slept through the final one (which was at 6am here) since I heard there were some technical difficulties.

Still got this game preordered since I found it fun from the first time I played it.

Thanks for reading.
 
Just bought it recently.

Impressions
-Leveling up was kinda difficult. It depends on how much paint you covered in a match.
-Single Player is pretty easy. The levels where you dodge Inkstrikes are difficult.
-Battle Dojo was boring. Unless it features Turf War in local multiplayer in the future.
 
so uh im gonna dash out and get this later today hopefully

anything i should know?

if i hadn't already seen the vid, you could've told me this was official splatoon art and i would've believed you
 
okay so i got it and it's fun but the game has serious balancing issues when it comes to matchmaking

also i'm pretty disgusted that there's a decent amount of the game that you can only get by paying another $36 for impossible-to-find amiibo

Agreed.

The two kid amiibo don't seem too hard to find, but I do think that the amiibo are very pricey if you only want their functionality in the game (I love their designs, so I'm not too mad).

I think the content, even without the Amiibo, is still more than worth while and the fact that there is an Amiibo part isn't really that bad. And they don't seem that hard to get, since I've seen lots of them in the stores since it came out (at least in my area).

I really enjoy this game. It's still tons of fun even though I've played like 40 matches. I think the cycling of stages is a great thing to have so that things don't get stale, and keeps you wanting to play every day. I'm awaiting for some modes to open up like the "Reach Lv. 10" online mode thingy and the Two pop-star squid poll thingy (you can tell how great I am at remembering names), and then it'll be even more fun stuff to do!

I've also gotten about halfway through the solo mode. It's really cool and I'm really enjoying it. It's not that bad, it's not super hard but it keeps you on your toes here and there, especially when dealing with those octo humans. I also really like the backstory I've gotten about the world of Splatoon from the special pages. I'm not going to spoil anything, but it does make one wonder...

Also, SO MANY SPONGEBOB miiverse posts are just floating around whenever I go on, usually involving Squidward. I get the whole nautical thing, but man, I did not expect that to be the most notable thing with the miiverse board for the game. I love it though; it's like my music building at college. I don't think a day goes by in that place without some spongebob joke thrown in the air.
