  • i was very excited to see what foamstars would offer in comparison to splatoon, so i decided to break everything down in this video and compare all aspects of the game to see if it was as good or maybe even better than splatoon 3. i compared elements such as gameplay, weapons, balancing, maps, pve mode, and lore.

    I think either square enix or its predecessors worked a ton with Nintendo. And now they made a game heavily “inspired” by a Nintendo game. Motion controls included. I do like motion controls though.

    I played Foamstars for 1 session. I kind of liked it and thought I'd get more depth from it on following play sessions, but I just couldn't find the motivation to turn it back on. I knew I wasn't going to keep up with the game for its updates and/or battle passes and I didn't have enough fun controlling the characters to really want to try them again. That's kind of on me, cause I only tried the first PVP mode and map. But, I don't think I'd have that much different of an experience if I went back to it.
    One thing I feel I got wrong, based off my session, was that I felt the foam was too difficult to properly cover terrain and use it to my advantage. But based off your footage, it seems like you can really cover maps and move around. But yeah, the reloading is kind of a buzzkill. I was open to a different way to play a game like this, but I definitely don't enjoy that decision personally. I did enjoy the kill confirm/revive mechanic, though.
    I'm glad you covered this game, cause of your experience with FPS/Third Person Shooter games! I've only gotten into Splatoon, Overwatch, and Call of Duty, in the genres. Cool to hear you gave it a fair shot and were able to show off and clarify some stuff I didn't really get into with the game.

    Gameplay wise, I'd play Foamstars. Everything else, I'd go for Splatoon 3.
    Foamstars is not technically free. It's free for anyone with PS+ until March 5th. After that, you'd have to pay $30 to get it. Unlike Fortnite and Apex Legends, you still need PS+ to play Foamstars online.
    I love customizing my character, so Splatoon 3 is for me. Foamstars is very lacking in customizing and a single outfit for one character is $11 each. Emotes are between $3.50 to $5.50 each.
    I would say Foamstars is a much more simplier game than Splatoon 3. It's like Overwatch where the characters have a set weapon and abilities. It doesn't take too long to get good at the game. Splatoon 3 has a lot more weapons and skills to choose from, so it takes a bit of time for any individual to find the right setup and feel comfortable.
    The game just came out, however I have trust issues with Square Enix keeping the game alive and can possibly shut the game down if it doesn't do well in profits. I wouldn't invest too much in this game unless you really like it or you trust Square Enix enough to spend a little.

    Rave breaker is quite different from baristador.
    Rave breaker manipulates the field to his liking. Adding or removing foam as he likes.
    Baristador is a complete ranged character. The tactical strike is the most powerful thing in the game, counterbalanced by the summon time. As far as foam, baristador has the flamethrower and can make good walls with his skill but otherwise ravebreaker wins in that field.

    Thanks for making this video! I did consider getting a used original or slim PS4 and PS Plus Essential just to play Foamstars, but later decided not to after I remembered one of the reasons why I went with a Switch OLED Model instead, that being the portability. I'm often on the move and have a lot of Switch games I can play offline, including Splatoon single-player content.
    (Edit: when I do get some gaming time, I often just end up playing Splatoon 2 and/or 3, likely because I enjoy online multiplayer games, not to mention the addictive gameplay, inky messes, and plaza posts)
    I do still need to connect to the inernet to play games if I hadn't played them before, but I think that's just becsuse my player profile is linked to a Nintendo account with an active NSO subscription and the connection is likely just to activate NSO cloud save data sync, affer which I can then play offline.

    Microtransactions are not that bad. The game literally needs ps+ to be played, so it is free to play :D And playing for around 15 hours (I think maybe even less if you don't do single player things that I agree suck) to unlock the character is not "paywall" it would be if it was like Battlefront...
