Hey guys! I see a lot of comments about the abilities I mentioned not being correct and i wanted to clarify why. It was an editing blunder and by the time I realized it during the final check I was like, “its alright cod players get the jist of perks and abilities” so i didnt bother fixing it. But anyway thank you guys SOOO much for the criticism and feedback! Next video will def be more thought out! 😊
well it technically is a post post apocalyptic post post post apocalyptic game basically 2 apocalypses happened in splatoon the post just signals the stages of humanity or similar rebuilding society first ww5 whiping almost all of humanity though some escaped and rebuilt a kind of civilization again second the great flood whiping most of sentient evolved marine life that was now living on the surface though now there is a fully evolved civilization again
The amount of actual genocide in this series is alarming. There was octo expansion with sanitization and tartar’s poop gun, there’s mr grizz’s shenanigans, and then there’s side order that could’ve progressed into genocide if he made it out of the cream world. Oh and there’s the great turf war which most definitely had some nasty stuff going on. The amount of sterilization and attempted eradication in this cutesy colorful game is disturbing.
That's a smart idea but it would be more like a demo mode where they get all the weopons but they can't buy stuff in the shop or play hero mode only a few online matches and a test version of hero mode and only the salmon run tutorial.
I grew up playing cod, halo, and battlefield, so let me start by saying that I didn't know about splatoon until S3 was announced. As someone who didn't own a wii u and owned but never played S2 until final fest, the thing that drew me in to splatoon was the lore and splatfests. I remember back in high-school when S2 was hosting their final fest, my friend was all excited for the weekend so he could grind out those final games, and when I told him I also had it but never played, he insisted i join him. Needless to say, I know I've missed out on S1 and 2, but I've been around since the world premiere of S3 and never regretted leaving those other games behind. It's fun grinding out anarchy and x rank, and when I actually want to sit back, throw on some turf war and get some licenses. I'm no longer shackled by the Stockholm syndrome of cod, and with the way bo6 has been going, I'm glad I got into splatoon when I did. #TeamOrder little did i know about the implications this would bring to the economy
Liked splatoon since s1, but no money to buy wiiu. then s2 comes, same deal. And finally, just 9 months short of finalfest, bought a switch and s3 cart + 1yr nso, this happen after I got job that paid better. Fun fact: there's no official nintendo eshop support here, so the cart i bought is region MSE (middle east + asean) with esrb rating, but eshop region is USA. I bought cartridge because buying digitally is more expensive, (600k idr cart vs 1 mil idr / 60usd digital), this trick is usually used for first party title because first party game discount is once in a blue moon
@OwenMoellering Honesly there is some very wholesome fanart that are made, buuuuut yeah..... there is... these fanart. And like always it's the worst that is the most know.
A big thing I really like about splatoon, is how artsy it is. Everything is fun to look at, and makes "sense" for the lore/vibe. The main thing is that you shoot ink? Well of course you'd be a cephalopod, and the weapons irl painting tools! All the characters are sea creatures? Well of course they'd sound like when you speak underwater! Etc. (I couldn't find an email address, so ig I'll offer here: I really enjoyed the videos you've made so far, and would love to draw something akin to a pngtuber
As a low level comp splatoon player, this was pretty interesting and yeah ive been telling people this is the game that more people should play with its fast movement that rewards good aim and resource management
Dude I did not realise just how small of a channel you were. I thought I was watching some well known RUclipsr! The quality of your works are insane omg
@ True, but the Splatoon community is extremely tiny compared to CoD. I’ve also heard and seen the horror stories abt voice chat in CoD. There are lots of minorities as well as LGBTQIA+ people who play Splatoon which CoD players are notorious for hating.
@Cosmo-f6g It is a AAA game, which is obviously going to be larger. But I've not only heard plenty of horrible stories about the dark side of the Splatoon community, I've been in the middle of it for several years on the receiving end. Many of the people there can and will hate you for not being part of the "alphabet mafia" because of how many have adopted the stance of "Either you're one of us or you're not, are very evil, and will be endlessly harassed for it" Not to mention how many people I'll claim to be disabled when it's just a self diagnosed autism. Which many can, will, and do use as a scapegoat for the constantly terrible actions they do. Koi in particular often used her community to harass, and in my case, almost bully into self delete. But apparently, making false rumors about me and intense cyberbullying was a-okay for everyone because she had a "mental condition" There's also plenty of things worth bringing up about that community. For example, cursed fanart that would definitely break ToS in many places, constantly trying to justify attraction to minors because "Love is Love", insisting they're against things they hate (i.e. intolerance and dehumanization), but usually are the first to ruin someone under the mere assumption of what they believe in/vote for. Politics shouldn't be in the game according to them, but glorifying melanin content, sexuality, and more flags than a game of minesweeper is enough to make them turn a blind eye. And as time went on for several years, I was willing to forgive most of that if I saw at least some redeeming qualities in the community. But as time went on, I never did. The same problems they had became worse as new ones arrived: the chocolate Splatfest was divided in between "This team better win or else everyone is a racist" and "I picked White because I can shoot white bodily fluids at others" Tokyo 2024 got canceled because a very unstable Splatoon player made death threats to a vast majority of the staff. The people in the community treat the game like an echo chamber. They're growing old, but never up, as they always adopt the same stance for talking about things that should be treated with caution in gaming: "This is what I believe. If you don't believe what I do, you're bigoted and an evil person." All that to say, I'm more than knowledgeable on what CoD has been and the darker side of it. But I'd be a terrible liar if I were to say Splatoon in this day and age is spotless and the role model for what a game community should be. Both sides really suck, and there's no reason I can't say that
6:03 resistance, so you can straf with your weapon better in enemy ink. It’s not mean fire rate, but it allows you to use the weapon more before needing to recharge. And it’s not jump right it’s how fast you can super jump via the map to a fellow player. But you have to be careful where you jump. Not damage we don’t want that. That’s Splatoon one. But the icon is special charge so you can activate your special weapon faster with less turf.
The beautiful thing about Splatoon is how it works both as a shooter for people who've already played lots of other shooters, and as a shooter for people who've never touched a single shooter in their lives BTW, no matter which of the two, or anywhere in between, you are, *give gyro aim a proper shot, don't immediately turn it off!* If you wanna do crazy flicks and 180s, you will need and want it, even if it takes getting used to! It'll be worth it!!
This! It will take some time to get used to gyro. But once you get it, gameplay is much more smoother. My tip is just use the stick to look left to right, and tilt the controller to look up and down
Yus, I highly recommend going through the Hero Mode (Single player story mode) to get used to aiming and shooting with various weapons and bombs, especially with gyro control. And the story mode has improved a lot in Splatoon 3 as a beginner's warm-up for the controls!
@@eliezerosorio2127 That is fair, some people can't use gyro cuz of wrist problems or motion sickness too Gyro is just what's very common for people who wanna go sweaty, it's too much advantage over stick control
There is sbmm in anarchy open splatfest and challenges, open and challenges is mainly used per rotation if with teammates (for open) but it out right tells you, splatfest will try and put you against a team that has a similar streak to your team
When Switch 2 comes out and more ppl get it, I really do feel like it holds tons of potential to grow the Splatoon community. A lot of ppl’s complaints for the series before were well, performance issues, hoping that the Switch 2 fixes that there is possibility for more players to get into the game now since 2017 hardware isn’t rlly holding it back anymore.
Honestly you should have talked more about the mains, subs and specials. Cause that's what you're gonna use to play matches so explaining a little more about them could make the game look more interesting. And also talk more about the ranked modes they are like the main source of fun once you get past turf war. Good video 😼👍
When I was a kid I used to play cod a lot. I got my first splatoon game when I was 17 (s2) and I got hooked to it immediately. I’m 20 now and I still find splatoon to be more fun! P.S when I first saw salmon run mode I immediately thought ZOMBIES
this is a seriously good overview of splatoon and you are very talented at editing! i love that game to death and i think that people who like all of the dark and gritty and intense shooters should try it out!
Dual weilding but made fun is the dualies class. You get 2 CROSSHAIRS, and DODGE ROLLS No other weapon classes have that. Another thing, after a dodge roll your crosshairs merge into one and increases the fire rate until you move. It's actually so much fun Oh yeah, also snipers are actually somewhat balanced in Splatoon, requiring the shot to be charged up, slowing the user's movement and showing a laser where their aim is.
6:09 Fixes (explanations are in parentheses for newbies): -Resistance (makes you move faster in enemy ink.) -Ammo (Mainly called Ink Saver (Main), as labeled in the video. Saves more ink for your main weapon. There’s also a variant for the sub weapon, and reduces the amount of ink used for those.) -Special recovery (increases rate of charge/reduces points required for your special.)
I think the main thing you forgot was gyro / motion controls since pc players migth have a hard time aiming with sticks the motion controll works like a mouse but on console
@@cheesy_beatzyou also have to remember that the new switch 2 remotes will work kinda like a mouse as well so imagine playing splatoon like that. Personally I’m sticking to sticks of course.
Really good video!! I have about 300 hours on Splatoon I think and this is perfect for explaining Splatoon to new players! Imma be honest, the swear word thrown in there was unnecessary but still great video! 🤣
One big thing to mention Turf war, the mode you have to ink the ground like an idiot, is the casual mode and does not appear in rank where the objective is to hold a zone, move an object or move multiple objects and kill enemies
i grew up playing nothing but CoD, but Splatoon’s launch in 2015 had me playing for so long. 2 and 3 became my absolute life in 2018 and 2022, i failed my first semester of college because i couldn’t stop playing 😭😭
As someone who has played neither franchise…and is super intimidated by shooter games…I enjoyed this video a lot. I impulsively bought Splatoon 3 this very week!!! This game looks so fun (in an overwhelming way lol) I hope I can “get gud” !!
You can control how sensative stick and motion controls are seperately. You can play sticks, though the game is made with motion controls in mind. Imo pure stick controls feel too stiff, so I do a mix of both; the game does not restrict you from using stick if you choose motion controls. I use the stick for left and right, motion for up and down, and smaller movement with any aiming. If you legitimately get motion sick and aren't just saying that to be dramatic because what you really are complaining about is not like (using) motion controls, then it's OK to go stick if there's genuine medical reason you can't do motion at all, even on the lowest settings. The sensitivity on motion and stick thankfully goes pretty low so you might be able to acclimate that way. The downside is you have to wait until after the tutorial before you can make those changes; the good news is that the base tutorial isn't long and even has a shortcut if you're observant enough. What he doesn't mention is that Splatoon is a very sensory heavy game. A lot is happening at any given time, and the matches can be fast paced as hell. I have definitely overloaded myself by wildly looking around, trying to absorb too much information too fast. My brain doesn't work like that or that fast, and it took years before I figured out why the hell my games always seemed so much more chaotic than ones i watched on youtube or twitch. I figured I was just bad at the game. I am, but I was making it _worse_ with my crazy ass moving the camera too damn much. Couldn't absorb info for shit like that. It finally clicked when I submerged in my ink at a quiet corner of the map and looked around more slowly.
@ShadowSkyX heh, only got good at motion after deliberately practicing charger in Splatoon 2's bowling ball level. Also a proud 5-star Vunder player You bring up a good point with it being sensory heavy too. But I will say, after watching Captain Astronaut's foamstar comparison it's like night and day.
Splatoon is an amazing franchise and there’s a reason a community like us is so passionate about it like how people were passionate about COD before it fell off a cliff. Not just a great game but a great story behind it too!
Huge splatoon fan here! I found this video just simply very interesting. I just love how Splatoon maintains its artistic identity through the music, art style, and general asthetic!
bro forgot to mention Big Run and Eggstra Work on the salmon run segment 🙄 /j /silly jokes aside, as someone who’s always hearing their friend complain abt COD is as a game and how money hungry they are just so ppl can play the game (P2W), this is overall a really good video to promote reasons why more ppl should play splatoon. great job!!
I've had experience with both series, specifically every CoD from CoD 4 to Modern Warfare 2, and Splatoon 2 and 3. Had Splatoon been around during CoDs peak, you'd probably get a fierce debate. Nowadays, Splatoon clears CoD, no sweat.
Even though I agree on the main message and everything you said is right some arguments where kinda weak and could have been explained more for example the lore. I’m a huge splatoon fan but if I wasn’t I probably wouldn’t have changed my mind. Don’t get me wrong the video was great and you have a lot of potential. Keep up the good work and you’ll get somewhere!
ty bro! honestly, i didnt want to talk too much about the lore and i wanted to hook new players on game mechanics they would find interesting, things they would encounter everytime they play the game. But, yeah! ty for the feedback!
4:18 This is actually false, there is sbmm in Splatoon even in Turf War matches, as the game assigns a hidden MMR value to your account for each mode: Turf, Anarachy mode, and X battle. Only in X battles and Anarchy open with friends is this stat, called a "power" in game actually made visible to you. Because of this hidden MMR stat, it is possible to match up with people who are not in the same rank as you, but have similar MMRs. Low S+ players routinely match into high S rank players, for example.
Great vid! One thing I’d say you shouldve also mentioned was motion controls being in the game, since its a big difference that splatoon has from other shooter games.
I'm pretty sure turf has SOME sbmm, but it's almost not restricted in terms of who you can match against, and by nature of turf war, is not super stable or representative. That and it's completely hidden with no external sign whatsoever. In any case, a S rank can and will be matched with and against first timers every now and then and thats beautiful.
I feel like this video came out at a very bad time period. Id agree with most points but splatoon 3 is dying due to Nintendos neglect. Theres no new guaranteed content anymore. Modes like league arent even available anymore like in splatoon 2. There are less kits than in splatoon 2 atm and it really limits the way we can play the game right now especially in competitive. Competitive doesnt get any support from nintendo unlike CoD which is a huge plus for CoD because they have actual Esport support from the devs. Splatoon 3 also doesnt have actual server in matches because it uses peer to peer which is extremely annoying when multiple players have bad internet.
The lastest COD I play is Black Ops 3. I've been playing Splatoon since Splatoon 2 post-splatfest era. As a huge og zombies fan (WAW - Black Ops 3), I don't necessarily see Salmon Run as a substitute, but I have loads of fun playing nonetheless. Don't get me wrong. I'm not saying it should be and if I can learn to have fun in Splatoon, other COD players should give it a chance. Thanks for the video 👍
I honestly think the hardest thing to sell people on for this game is the artstyle. Personally i think it's one of the strongest aspects of the game, but it looks too "childish" for a lot of people who play more "realistic" shooters like CoD and Halo. The points you make here are wonderful and I really hope they reach the right people and draw more to this community, but having tried for a few years to spread the game I can say the stigma that the artstyle is given can be difficult to overcome
as far as artstyle, i dont think anyone really cares about the graphic....-ness of COD anymore, and all these bundles I keep saying in the game are just stupid. There is a finishing move where a unicorn farts rainbows on you and kills you. But, yeah I get what you're saying.
I definitely recommend it, but you need to be ready to challenge yourself by trying a bunch of weapons and learning how to face other weapons in this game.
I find splatoon to be a shining beacon amidst other nintendo franchises that are gradually sacrificing integrity for broad appeal, too. Splatoon is just so good that it does both.
When you’re talking about a category, you should have that gameplay on the screen and no other game mode so it’s not confusing for people listening AND watching. Great video though
Yup. Other than dlc EVERYTHING is in the game. It might have taken a few updates to get the content we have now, splatoon has a reward system similar to a season pass, but still. You don't pay a CENT after buying g the game
The only thing that kept me playing COD was my love for guns but GMOD just has more and I can do whatever I want, but if you still play COD just play Splatoon.
the greatest bit about splatoon is how weird the guns are. if guns were on a spectrum of realism, cod is 'super realistic', splatoon is 'batshit insane'. you've never seen a 'blaster' in a cod game before, have you?
love the kits upselling but to be fair, its not its best feature. its a great idea but atm theres only 2 kits per weapon sadly, there needs to be way more but nintendo, idk what theyre doing tbh, theyre slacking. there should be 3 at the very minimum of each main, theres just so many subs and specials and they only have 2 kits per weapon, which is annoying after a while, or at least for people like me who played this game a long time
Did you really forgot about Big Runs?? Good video though. I enjoyed it. Although, I've only played Splatoon (all 3 games and 2 DLCs) and never played or cared for COD
good video BUTTT theres one thing i wanna say, main saver does NOT change fire rate, it changes how much in generic shooter terms, how many bullets you have before the mag runs out,
If Splatoon was on PC I would play it, but since it’s not I have no interest. I’m not subjecting myself to Nintendo’s awful online and controller quality. I already had enough of that during Splatoon 2’s life
you can emulate lan play splatoon 3 lan mode online with other emulators. so at least we know when the servers go down the game will still be playable online in one way
But u is forgetting ONE major detailed between cod campaign and the splatoon campaign cod campaign can make u cry in the older ones like ghost captain price(RIP THE GOAT😭)
Hey guys! I see a lot of comments about the abilities I mentioned not being correct and i wanted to clarify why. It was an editing blunder and by the time I realized it during the final check I was like, “its alright cod players get the jist of perks and abilities” so i didnt bother fixing it. But anyway thank you guys SOOO much for the criticism and feedback! Next video will def be more thought out! 😊
My favorite selling point for Splatoon as a franchise is that it can be classified as a Post-Apocalyptic Shooter without lying
well it technically is a post post apocalyptic post post post apocalyptic game
basically 2 apocalypses happened in splatoon the post just signals the stages of humanity or similar rebuilding society
first ww5 whiping almost all of humanity though some escaped and rebuilt a kind of civilization again
second the great flood whiping most of sentient evolved marine life that was now living on the surface though now there is a fully evolved civilization again
I mean….. you’re not wrong.
You are right the lore is pretty deep and dark. We literally blew ourself with nuclear war in this game...
The amount of actual genocide in this series is alarming. There was octo expansion with sanitization and tartar’s poop gun, there’s mr grizz’s shenanigans, and then there’s side order that could’ve progressed into genocide if he made it out of the cream world. Oh and there’s the great turf war which most definitely had some nasty stuff going on. The amount of sterilization and attempted eradication in this cutesy colorful game is disturbing.
As someone with over 1,000 hours in Splatoon 3 who has never played a single second of COD, I find this very entertaining.
COD is going down the drain, you're clean brother ☝
Frfr
same bro
1,000+ hour gang💪(I have 1300)
Not 1000 "yet" but I haven't played COD either
Crazy how COD has more kid players, than splatoon 3. And more adults play splatoon 3.
Maybe percent wise
And they're both known to be ultra immature LOL
As a splatoon veteran. This makes me think. Splatoon needs FREE weeks/weekends 2 or 3 times a year to try and get new players.
They actually did this twice with Splatoon 2, would be nice if they also did it with Splatoon 3
That's a smart idea but it would be more like a demo mode where they get all the weopons but they can't buy stuff in the shop or play hero mode only a few online matches and a test version of hero mode and only the salmon run tutorial.
I wouldn't assume Splatoon is like it was now. Don't go too deep into the rabbit hole of the community, and you should be fine
@@survivorofthecurse717you can say that again!
@@survivorofthecurse717 Honestly, not all of the community is bad, just... don't type Splatoon on DeviantArt.
Biggest Mistake of my life.

You will eventually hit your target audience dude, trust me
Everyone here is a Splatoon fan LMAO
@nouille3928 You missed a couple, it seems. I found out the hard way why it was necessary to drop out of the game and never look back
Welcome to the splatoon community more people need to play it
Just don't look at fan art, that shit is Vile
@ agreed
@OwenMoellering thank god I never saw any of those
@OwenMoellering I mean, what community’s fanart isn’t vile?
@OwenMoellering Honesly there is some very wholesome fanart that are made, buuuuut yeah..... there is... these fanart.

You have to also explain the lore of off the hook. Maybe lesbianism will help convince him more

WTF HELLOO HI ANCHUS!!!
As a low level comp splatoon player, this was pretty interesting and yeah ive been telling people this is the game that more people should play with its fast movement that rewards good aim and resource management
I've played Quake 1/2/3, Unreal, Battlefield, Rtcw, CS, COD etc . I really like Splatoon 3, it's really fun and really difficult at higher levels.

Nah the CoD players can stay with their game. I don’t need that level of toxicity and immaturity. Putz12 is already enough 💀

Dog, why is this video underrated, and I’m a cod guy🤣 (maybe add some hashtags in the description to get more people from the cod community)
Bro ty for the feedback! I swear every comment has been really supportive and I wasn’t expecting it 😅

Cod guy didn’t get the abilities, no biggie if it means he can convert cod players to this legendary series
I made a pinned comment addressing it, hopefully that clears it up 👍
There is sbmm in anarchy open splatfest and challenges, open and challenges is mainly used per rotation if with teammates (for open) but it out right tells you, splatfest will try and put you against a team that has a similar streak to your team
When Switch 2 comes out and more ppl get it, I really do feel like it holds tons of potential to grow the Splatoon community. A lot of ppl’s complaints for the series before were well, performance issues, hoping that the Switch 2 fixes that there is possibility for more players to get into the game now since 2017 hardware isn’t rlly holding it back anymore.
5:22 Hey chat, what's the CoD equivalent of our 3rd kit copium?
Probably hoping the next pay to win DLC is affordable, if I had to leverage an uneducated guess.
Cool overview video for Splatoon! After 3000 hours playing the franchise, I would hope to be able to say it is great as well lol!
Nice video! I hope it gets some new people playing😅 just subscribed and looking forwards to more
Now im patiently waiting for switch 2 and splatoon 4, hope they make an infinite round mode for salmon run
2-3 different kits 😭😭
Exactly what I was thinking 😭😭
nice video. theres still so much more to love about the game but this covered some parts well
Can we get a "COD for splatoon Dummies" Video next? either way, nice video!
Why would we torture ourselves with that-
Honestly you should have talked more about the mains, subs and specials. Cause that's what you're gonna use to play matches so explaining a little more about them could make the game look more interesting. And also talk more about the ranked modes they are like the main source of fun once you get past turf war.
Good video 😼👍
ty for the feedback brother!
When I was a kid I used to play cod a lot. I got my first splatoon game when I was 17 (s2) and I got hooked to it immediately. I’m 20 now and I still find splatoon to be more fun!
P.S when I first saw salmon run mode I immediately thought ZOMBIES
I think more people should play Splatoon, but I’d be suprised if most COD players actually migrated to it.
this is a seriously good overview of splatoon and you are very talented at editing! i love that game to death and i think that people who like all of the dark and gritty and intense shooters should try it out!
As a Splatoon veteran I can say this video is fire 🔥
Dual weilding but made fun is the dualies class. You get 2 CROSSHAIRS, and DODGE ROLLS
No other weapon classes have that.
Another thing, after a dodge roll your crosshairs merge into one and increases the fire rate until you move.
It's actually so much fun
Oh yeah, also snipers are actually somewhat balanced in Splatoon, requiring the shot to be charged up, slowing the user's movement and showing a laser where their aim is.
6:09 Fixes (explanations are in parentheses for newbies):
-Resistance (makes you move faster in enemy ink.)
-Ammo (Mainly called Ink Saver (Main), as labeled in the video. Saves more ink for your main weapon. There’s also a variant for the sub weapon, and reduces the amount of ink used for those.)
-Special recovery (increases rate of charge/reduces points required for your special.)
The music's great, the specials are awesome, every gun is unique, what's not to love?
I think the main thing you forgot was gyro / motion controls since pc players migth have a hard time aiming with sticks the motion controll works like a mouse but on console
BROOO ur right. i might need to make a short about that. but even then there's a small number of people who play without gyro
@@cheesy_beatz If you have prior experience playing fortnite or pubg mobile or cod mobile with gyro, it's actually easy
@@cheesy_beatzyou also have to remember that the new switch 2 remotes will work kinda like a mouse as well so imagine playing splatoon like that. Personally I’m sticking to sticks of course.
Really good video!! I have about 300 hours on Splatoon I think and this is perfect for explaining Splatoon to new players! Imma be honest, the swear word thrown in there was unnecessary but still great video! 🤣
I haven't even watched the video but i dropped in to say i agree
One big thing to mention
Turf war, the mode you have to ink the ground like an idiot, is the casual mode and does not appear in rank where the objective is to hold a zone, move an object or move multiple objects and kill enemies
5:34 that part about third kits made me really sad ;c
i grew up playing nothing but CoD, but Splatoon’s launch in 2015 had me playing for so long. 2 and 3 became my absolute life in 2018 and 2022, i failed my first semester of college because i couldn’t stop playing 😭😭
How are you not at 10k this is a masterpiece (in my opinion)
Splatoon is my favorite series and seeing it compared to COD and the major differences it’s got is actually insane!
As someone who has played neither franchise…and is super intimidated by shooter games…I enjoyed this video a lot. I impulsively bought Splatoon 3 this very week!!! This game looks so fun (in an overwhelming way lol) I hope I can “get gud” !!
Great video. It's important to mention the drawbacks of Splatoon, though, like learning motion controls and disconnects.
You can control how sensative stick and motion controls are seperately. You can play sticks, though the game is made with motion controls in mind. Imo pure stick controls feel too stiff, so I do a mix of both; the game does not restrict you from using stick if you choose motion controls. I use the stick for left and right, motion for up and down, and smaller movement with any aiming. If you legitimately get motion sick and aren't just saying that to be dramatic because what you really are complaining about is not like (using) motion controls, then it's OK to go stick if there's genuine medical reason you can't do motion at all, even on the lowest settings. The sensitivity on motion and stick thankfully goes pretty low so you might be able to acclimate that way. The downside is you have to wait until after the tutorial before you can make those changes; the good news is that the base tutorial isn't long and even has a shortcut if you're observant enough.
What he doesn't mention is that Splatoon is a very sensory heavy game. A lot is happening at any given time, and the matches can be fast paced as hell. I have definitely overloaded myself by wildly looking around, trying to absorb too much information too fast. My brain doesn't work like that or that fast, and it took years before I figured out why the hell my games always seemed so much more chaotic than ones i watched on youtube or twitch. I figured I was just bad at the game. I am, but I was making it _worse_ with my crazy ass moving the camera too damn much. Couldn't absorb info for shit like that. It finally clicked when I submerged in my ink at a quiet corner of the map and looked around more slowly.
@ShadowSkyX heh, only got good at motion after deliberately practicing charger in Splatoon 2's bowling ball level. Also a proud 5-star Vunder player
You bring up a good point with it being sensory heavy too. But I will say, after watching Captain Astronaut's foamstar comparison it's like night and day.
Splatoon is an amazing franchise and there’s a reason a community like us is so passionate about it like how people were passionate about COD before it fell off a cliff. Not just a great game but a great story behind it too!
Huge splatoon fan here! I found this video just simply very interesting. I just love how Splatoon maintains its artistic identity through the music, art style, and general asthetic!
bro forgot to mention Big Run and Eggstra Work on the salmon run segment 🙄 /j /silly
jokes aside, as someone who’s always hearing their friend complain abt COD is as a game and how money hungry they are just so ppl can play the game (P2W), this is overall a really good video to promote reasons why more ppl should play splatoon. great job!!
Wanna know something funny, cod killed my joy for shooters back in 2011. Splatoon 1 revived that joy.
I've had experience with both series, specifically every CoD from CoD 4 to Modern Warfare 2, and Splatoon 2 and 3.
Had Splatoon been around during CoDs peak, you'd probably get a fierce debate. Nowadays, Splatoon clears CoD, no sweat.
Even though I agree on the main message and everything you said is right some arguments where kinda weak and could have been explained more for example the lore. I’m a huge splatoon fan but if I wasn’t I probably wouldn’t have changed my mind. Don’t get me wrong the video was great and you have a lot of potential. Keep up the good work and you’ll get somewhere!
ty bro! honestly, i didnt want to talk too much about the lore and i wanted to hook new players on game mechanics they would find interesting, things they would encounter everytime they play the game. But, yeah! ty for the feedback!
@@cheesy_beatzi think you should have talked about the main mechanics (especially ink and squid form) more, but other than that nice video
Everything you said makes full sense but to be fair mate the comparision is to cod so ANYTHING ELSE is better than cod😂😂😂
My life is a cycle of playing splatoon.
I'm bored → I play Splatoon → I lose → I get angry → I stop playing → I'm bored.
And so the cycle continues.
4:18 This is actually false, there is sbmm in Splatoon even in Turf War matches, as the game assigns a hidden MMR value to your account for each mode: Turf, Anarachy mode, and X battle. Only in X battles and Anarchy open with friends is this stat, called a "power" in game actually made visible to you.
Because of this hidden MMR stat, it is possible to match up with people who are not in the same rank as you, but have similar MMRs. Low S+ players routinely match into high S rank players, for example.
I would say keep the controll throwers away from us, but we already have some 😔
Me, with 2000 hours in Splat 3 and hasn't touched a CoD since Black Ops 3: "Hol up, let him cook."
Great vid! One thing I’d say you shouldve also mentioned was motion controls being in the game, since its a big difference that splatoon has from other shooter games.
check out my newest short!
the math someone did for max lv was 10,000 hours. at lv 500 you need even more exp to lv up.
Thanks for converting people so they can buy a Nintendo Switch 2 and experience the absolute madness that will be the reveal of 4.
Please play splatoon
it’s a underrated gem
Splatoon mentioned
I'm pretty sure turf has SOME sbmm, but it's almost not restricted in terms of who you can match against, and by nature of turf war, is not super stable or representative. That and it's completely hidden with no external sign whatsoever. In any case, a S rank can and will be matched with and against first timers every now and then and thats beautiful.
I’m pretty sure turf matchmaking is at least partially-based off your weapon freshness.
I feel like this video came out at a very bad time period.
Id agree with most points but splatoon 3 is dying due to Nintendos neglect.
Theres no new guaranteed content anymore.
Modes like league arent even available anymore like in splatoon 2.
There are less kits than in splatoon 2 atm and it really limits the way we can play the game right now especially in competitive.
Competitive doesnt get any support from nintendo unlike CoD which is a huge plus for CoD because they have actual Esport support from the devs.
Splatoon 3 also doesnt have actual server in matches because it uses peer to peer which is extremely annoying when multiple players have bad internet.
yeah good video wrong time
Turf War actually DOES have skill based matchmaking
It's just hidden and way more fluid than it is in the ranked modes
Should one consider buying Splatoon 3 now when nintendo is about to launch its new console ?
Sending this to my cod-obsessed brother
The lastest COD I play is Black Ops 3. I've been playing Splatoon since Splatoon 2 post-splatfest era. As a huge og zombies fan (WAW - Black Ops 3), I don't necessarily see Salmon Run as a substitute, but I have loads of fun playing nonetheless. Don't get me wrong. I'm not saying it should be and if I can learn to have fun in Splatoon, other COD players should give it a chance. Thanks for the video 👍
Instructions unclear, purchased game with the promise of literally any 3rd kits /lh
I play both and this is the best way to describe it to a cod player
We always welcome more squid kids in the community
Im definitely switching to splatoon now 😎
I honestly think the hardest thing to sell people on for this game is the artstyle. Personally i think it's one of the strongest aspects of the game, but it looks too "childish" for a lot of people who play more "realistic" shooters like CoD and Halo.
The points you make here are wonderful and I really hope they reach the right people and draw more to this community, but having tried for a few years to spread the game I can say the stigma that the artstyle is given can be difficult to overcome
as far as artstyle, i dont think anyone really cares about the graphic....-ness of COD anymore, and all these bundles I keep saying in the game are just stupid. There is a finishing move where a unicorn farts rainbows on you and kills you. But, yeah I get what you're saying.
HY MEGAN!!!👋😊
Getting kills helps the objective. But killing isn’t the main objective
I definitely recommend it, but you need to be ready to challenge yourself by trying a bunch of weapons and learning how to face other weapons in this game.
I find splatoon to be a shining beacon amidst other nintendo franchises that are gradually sacrificing integrity for broad appeal, too. Splatoon is just so good that it does both.
When you’re talking about a category, you should have that gameplay on the screen and no other game mode so it’s not confusing for people listening AND watching. Great video though
My life before Splatoon: 😞
My life after Splatoon 🦑🥳🕺
Here's the thing, I don't have to give cod an extra 20$ a year to play even after already buying the game.
Yup. Other than dlc EVERYTHING is in the game. It might have taken a few updates to get the content we have now, splatoon has a reward system similar to a season pass, but still. You don't pay a CENT after buying g the game
The only thing that kept me playing COD was my love for guns but GMOD just has more and I can do whatever I want, but if you still play COD just play Splatoon.
the greatest bit about splatoon is how weird the guns are. if guns were on a spectrum of realism, cod is 'super realistic', splatoon is 'batshit insane'. you've never seen a 'blaster' in a cod game before, have you?
love the kits upselling but to be fair, its not its best feature. its a great idea but atm theres only 2 kits per weapon sadly, there needs to be way more but nintendo, idk what theyre doing tbh, theyre slacking. there should be 3 at the very minimum of each main, theres just so many subs and specials and they only have 2 kits per weapon, which is annoying after a while, or at least for people like me who played this game a long time
Maybe don’t, don’t want more toxicity in Splatoon (unless you don’t suffer from skill issue and are a chill dude, then come enjoy the squidtunes)
How is this ur second vid? keep it up!
The best that could happen to splatoon is it coming out on a non nintendo platform, which will never happen. :(
I’ve never played cod but I’ve played all the splatoon games 😂😂😂 great video
Did you really forgot about Big Runs??
Good video though. I enjoyed it. Although, I've only played Splatoon (all 3 games and 2 DLCs) and never played or cared for COD
Real
Hey if you must know, the algorithm sent me here.
i would be down to play cod if they ported an older cod from the ps3 360 days to switch.
good video BUTTT theres one thing i wanna say,
main saver does NOT change fire rate, it changes how much in generic shooter terms, how many bullets you have before the mag runs out,
i know, it was an editing floop, i recorded vo before getting those images
I love when people like splatoon, it’s cute and fun.
Very informative 👏
As a Splatoon player, this convinced me never to pick up CoD
If Splatoon was on PC I would play it, but since it’s not I have no interest. I’m not subjecting myself to Nintendo’s awful online and controller quality. I already had enough of that during Splatoon 2’s life
you can emulate lan play splatoon 3 lan mode online with other emulators. so at least we know when the servers go down the game will still be playable online in one way
The biggest turn off for cod players going to splatoon that I’ve seen is the fear of gyro aiming, and the lack of aim assist or keyboard and mouse.
But u is forgetting ONE major detailed between cod campaign and the splatoon campaign cod campaign can make u cry in the older ones like ghost captain price(RIP THE GOAT😭)
Better option: play both. I have just over 1,000 hours in S3 but I enjoy cod when I decide to play it.
