spot on with the corporate feeling. splatoon put so much care in their world building they made an entirely new language and writing system with hundred different fonts stickers posters music and bunch of art to populate the world and that amount of effort is just not present in foamstars
It isnt actually a different language, its just english with different letters.
The best example I'd say is how each game handles it's music. In Splatoon, all the battle music is treated as music that exists in the world of the game, to the point where each track is made by a specific band with their own members and style and even stories about how members grow and jump between bands from one game to the next.
Meanwhile as previously mentioned, Foamstars has AI generated album covers, lol. Regardless of the quality of the actual music (which I've heard is actually pretty good), it comes across as lazy and like no one really cared.
THIS
Yeah, the entire video I was kinda thinking to myself the colors look nice but it doesn't feel like they were put there with any intent other than jangling keys. Was so glad when he pointed that out.
this looks like what if some soulless korean game studio made splatoon
Genshin ass graphics fr
@@Jobroski47genshins got a better and more unique art direction then whatever the generic fuck this shit is
😭
@@Jobroski47BAHA
@@Jobroski47Genshin has better graphics and looks less soulless (and I don’t even play it LMAO)
I genuinely cannot believe that Foamstars launched with only 8 characters. Splatoon 1, bearing in mind it launched with barebones content in hindsight, had at least double that in main weapons alone (the closest equivalent) on launch, not even talking about alternate kits. If they wanted to go the hero shooter angle, this is an abysmal starting line up.
13:09 as someone who plays Persona 5, I can not unhear it. It's literally the same as Lyn's vocals what on god.
It’s funny cus I don’t think that’s Lyn singing
word for word bar for bar 😭
IDK who the singer is, but I feel like chances are it's just a Japanese singer who has an American accent down, but doesn't understand English. That's very much so why persona singers have a distinct sound to their voices, so that may be why it sounds similar. It really does just sound like if a persona game did... I'm not great with music genres, EDM? Though I cannot lie
Yeah it does sound like her and the song they played even has slight “Take Over” energy which is WILD
@@ajmoment8091 Lyn is also a professional Jazz singer which adds to her very distinctive voice even when she sings something less Jazz oriented like Axe to Grind or Let’s Go Featherman
I feel like the concept could have been more creative if instead of a multiplayer game it could be a story driven game where the characters fight trash themed monsters instead of feeling like a Splatoon clone
SqEx knows what they're doing. They got their cash-prize from the loyal playstation fans that will never touch a Nintendo system to save their lives, but also want to play Splatoon.
Heh. There is no “want” to play Splatoon. You’ve either played it, or never heard of it in your life 😂
Perfectly accurate
@dynamorolleruser I mean, I had already been wanting to play splatoon when I first got into it lol
@dynamorolleruser nah I'm not a fan, I have friends that love it so I've def heard of it XD
I never played.
Splatoon has a sea animals and late 19s early 2000s style. Foamstars is just a party and nothing else. Splatoon has a lot of complex and straight up dark lore. Foamstars has the character backstories and nothing else. Splatoon has big DLC story modes with a lot of content the first one is just a really good single player story and the second is a Splatoon roguelike. Foamstars has simply the offline multiplayer mode with dialogue. Even if Splatoon isn't perfect, Splatoon has passion and effort, foamstars doesn't
The language in Splatoon is Japanese, but its technically gibberish Japanese
Gibberish Japanese and sometimes mixed with English
It's like Japanese or English but you can't speak it so it sounds like gibberish
KID ICARUS UPRISING MENTIONED
garden warfare is supirior, change my mind
WHATS A COMFORTABLE CONTROL SCEME RAAAAAAA 🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️
@@AverageEggmonEnthusiast pro tip, use the left stick and your thumb on the touch screen. Best way to play the game
@@justalazer7485 I’ve found that with 3DSXL the game gets confused about the L and R keys and for some reason swapping the control scheme fixes it 💀
NAH THERE WAS A GAME BEFORE SPLATOON! WHAT ABOUT "DE BLOB"?!???!!
aight take the mic u need it
De Blob was my childhood, ngl tho I thought I dreamt that game up and it wasn’t actually real lol
@@bernkastel7438 I have the game for the wii, both de blob and de blob 2, it did felt like a dream.
De Blob 2 on 360 was one of my favorite experiences
I cant believe someone mentioned the goddamn problem solvers in 2024. I had PTSD flashbacks
2:40 based
also about salmon run's lack of progression or a sense of scaling power during gameplay, I love the dedication of the splatoon devs of making the world building in sync with the game itself and everything, but that's exactly what limits salmon run from having more fun "videogame" mechanics, because Salmon run is supposed to be a dangerous, garbage, badly paid job so it wouldn't make sense to have any of that, that's why it has "fck u" energy. It's awesome it makes sense but at the same time sticking that much to the lore is pretty detrimental to how fun it could potentially be.
I think the limits are just as much due to it's roots as a side mode in Splatoon 2 as it is the lore. Even if they don't add any sort of progression system, there's nothing stopping them from just like... adding a second rotation to play or more options for difficulty beyond just ranking up for more difficulty and demoting to make things easier. That wouldn't break the lore or anything, but I think the reason they don't do it is because salmon run was never designed to be a mode that you play for extended periods of time. It was built from the ground up in 2 to be something you play to get your bonuses, and then stop playing to go back to the main game until the next shift comes around.
This is also why I feel like a spin-off dedicated to PvE would go so hard, cause they'd be able to take the best parts of salmon run and side order and make something where that style of gameplay gets to be front and center.
@@squiddler7731 A dedicated PVE Salmon Run game would be so awesome
So it's to Splatoon what Nintendo Switch Sports is to Wii sports. Got it.
The way to Splatoon community treated foam stars was funny
Personally, I have no problem with games, taking aspiration as long it’s a good game but I knew it was kind of screwed when it was square Enix making it
Personally, did enjoyed the game but holy shit the micro transactions $40 is crazy
Hey, coming from a person who played this game since release and been wanting to push the game, the game was fun but then gets boring here and there. There's been a bunch of bugs and suchs after each patch since each season is basically 1 month long, content feels lacking, and there is a few balancing issues here and there (especially with Ramzey)
While this game is fun casually, if you try and play it competitve, it's worse. Since the game has rollback, if you play in a lobby where someone has terrible internet or playing with JP host, you'll be teleporting everywhere, your shots won't hit, or foam will appear after 10 seconds. The game has horrible netcode and I'm hoping around August, IF this game does come to other consoles, they fix the netcode for the game.
Edit: I should probably add more about whats wrong with the game on my side, but just don't try and push the game competitvly rn since JP has taken over it. If you are playing the game, it's fun with friends/casually and that's it.
Also coming back from this, the video is also missing the event modes of the game: Extreme Party and Friyay
Extreme party is like challenge mode from splatoon but usually last about 4-5 hours and usually happens at the beginning of the season to the end of the season, usually each season gets 2 event parties, which ranges from everyone using the new characters, one hitting people, and the current one is using other characters specials instead of the character you're playing special (example, instead of Jet using his dive, suction bomb, and shield, he'll get Soa's bubble step and Agito's bomb and Chloe's SSS)
Friyay is basically a way for people to try out the new character before the next season when they are released. We maybe getting one around the end of this season for the last character of the road map seasons.
I don't think there is anything else I should mention after this, but this game is def a 6/10 if it wasn't for the marketing, usage of AI for the album covers (at least the album covers for season 3,4,5 isn't using AI, but the older ones are AI'd which is stupid af) and ofc, Square Enix.
My favorite foamstars youtuber
If splatoon players didnt try foamstars just to hate on it, it would have stopped getting updates the day it released. Pro business move ngl.
Splatoon players actually tried this game before dunking on it?
5:20 this game mode reminds me of the team multiplayer mode from kid Icarus: uprising! Once either team’s shared ko health bar is depleted, the player who died last takes the role of either Pit or Dark Pit depending on the team. If a player gets ko’d after their respective angel appears, I think said angel loses some health as well. Once the angel’s health is depleted, the match is over and the team whose angel survives is the winner! I think there’s also an achievement you get by ko-ing an angel while playing as the other angel too.
Edit: you literally say this a few seconds later XD
You know, I genuinely thought foam stars had potential, sure it was similar to Splatoon but it seemed different enough to still be fun, yet judging by the fact that this video exists I guess I am wrong.
Those were my exact thoughts
You know, I have a feeling this was supposed to be that NFT game before that bubble popped.
My issues with it:
1. I don't have a PlayStation. I can't play.
2. I hate how neon the foam is as well as it is hard to see the shape of the foam. The foam looks like a shapeless blob when it is not shapeless but in fact very bumpy and this is such an easy problem to fix.
2:25 Broski it's not inspiration it's straight up copy, rave breaker? what even is rave, it clearly just is wave breaker but with a r instead of w.
and not just bc of wave breaker, but u can obviously tell it's straight up copy, basically splatoon plus overwatch
A rave is a party, so the name fits
But yeah, the copying is obvious
Make the foam be less neon and glowy would help because then it’s not as much color stuffed into your face
Exactly
The English Voice Acting personally makes it feel like a Saturday morning cartoon (though i do like that it feels like that)
Honestly that’s not a bad way to think about it
Omg OC is literally my favorite gootuber ever 😆🦑🐙
that Vanoss reference got me ngl.
The only other game that I can remember has movement and ammo tied to the same resource is Codename Steam, which is also a Nintendo game and was announced in the same direct
Omghedidit!! Vamos!!!!! (Also I really dig the video style btw, you cooked.)
Thank you I’ve been really trying to improve my style
Probably not related, but I’m guessing a decent amount of people, like myself, were still playing Palworld too (along with Helldivers 2).
I forgot this game existed. :0
Great video!
I never played splatoons but I’m really enjoying foamstarts. I agree with a lot of the video hopefully the game gets better with time. They have added more characters and some new stages.
lethal league blaze transitioning into machine girl. you have a1 music taste
Lost Judgement clip in the intro was great
On its own, this seemed like a fun idea, but the execution was so so bad
I happened to find out about this game a bit before it came out, the story mode is really repetitive but I got some enjoyment from online, it overheated my ps4 often
The second you mentioned that game mode I knew it was just like in Uprising
2:40 trust me, we are the same
was just about to mention LvD in KI:U before you did. XD not wrong though, glad this one wasn't alone in feeling that
Also, totally agree on needing another Kid Icarus game in the vein of Uprising. Or even just an Uprising port.
is the lil main theme sung by lyn?
Foamstars is just Splatoon for neurotypical people
Was better spending into Uktrakill
w/e overwatching trying to do, nothing lmao maybe a halloween arcade mode for that weekend
Spending 500$ in general sounds like a waste depending on what you buying like I wanna play foamstar but I probably would buy a switch to play with friends
$500 WTF
is that glass ocean I hear in the background ⁉️⁉️
slingshot phighting hjoly shitttttt
As a Destiny fan, I totally get why you hate the game and totally respect your decision. But I will also say to each their own. The Final Shape was really great, even considered the best dlc Bungie ever created from long time players, surpassing The Taken King, Forsaken and Witch Queen
nobody forced you to pay $500
Square Enix should stick to making rpgs, because this is not it.
Also, I spent HOURS on Light VS. Dark mode as a kid.
Speaking of movement also being your main form of attack, Black Rock Shooter the game (PSP) did this way before splatoon and foamstars did it and BRS the game was an JRPG.
Too bad BRS as an IP is pretty much dead after the whole good smile co glazing Disney and WB debacle.
So we probably won't see a remaster of the old game anytime soon. Then again there isn't very many games that have energy management based on weaponry and movement, other than splat and foam.
I don’t have a PlayStation because some games on there are trash and put so much graphics on there just feels disgusting
WE KNOW
As someone who played persona 5 multiple times, and is a fan of the series. This video is a massive disrespect to the soundtrack of Persona 5 which is objectively one of THE BEST soundtracks for ANY video games.
Star player? 🤔
I just watched this video, and i could disagree more
i really really wanna play splatoon but its nintendo exclusive if they came to PC and mobile maybe other consoles i would be sooooooooooo down to grind that game and play it but that will never happen cause its nintendo theres a chance for a mobile version maybe tencent makes a new splatoon game for switch 2 and mobile thats cross-platform and cross-play like they did with that pokemon moba but i highly doubt it
Nintendo will not allow main series games off if their consoles they will let mobile spinoffs into mobile but that's about it from Nintendo guess the cursed relics that are the CDI Zelda games scared em off
The fact Sony pushed this game more than Helldivers 2 should make us think about what Sony expects to be a good game/sell well.
😕😕
Phone store need to be upgrade which type weapon what's the difference skilled I was thinking about that🤔
I need more map I know this game is good I like this game seriously they need a new map😠
I was heavily interested in foam stars and I was considering plugging up my Sony PlayStation Four and purchased a month of online for foam stars but Side Order had released a few days before and I decided to play / use my time to play something that I am familiar with. Since then I have no interest in playing foam stars now.
As soulless and typical as this is for SquareEnix, at least it doesn't have some toxic and infuriating anti-environment message like Splatoon 3 does. I'd honestly spend 500$ on this crap before I'd even spend a dime on Splatoon 3.
Bro what are you talking about "anti-environment message"
@@NAFEDUDE The main campaign literally ends by implying that nature should perish for the sake of "progress." It's literally about humans-with-tentacles on their head trying to kill a bear to stop nature from coming back. I also love how people twist this and try to make HUMANS out to be nature and Grizz out to be the side of humans. If that was the case, then GRIZZ would be the human, NOT the humans that are SUPPOSED to be squids, but look like humans to pander to humanity's narcissism.
You really spent 500 dollars to play a Splatoon rip-off!?
Splatoon is just better
Fans of any Nintendo game try not to be annoying challenge
