About the controls = i'm pretty sure he used the motion controls before making the video, that's why he turned them off in the video. It was a way of saying that both options sucked, although maybe I interpreted it wrong. 

And there isn't voicechat. Don't give me that app garbage. And he did play the singleplayer. He says "the multiplayer maps hardly take advantage of most of the unique gimmicks in the singleplayer". Did ya watch the video Torterra?

Also : "He complains about how "dumb" the game is. Yeah, because he only plays casual turf wars."

If the game's main mode inspires someone to call it out as dumb ... then that's a fault of the game designers. I don't really see your logic here, turf wars isn't dumb so your counter-point could have simply been "the game isn't dumb." 

I don't really agree with most of his video but come on guys, some of the stuff your saying is just a bit too defensive. I get that he wasn't completely right but ... there was less defense given when he slammed Half Life 2 HAHAHAHA

His point was that the game was mindless and it was too easy to spawn kill his opponents, but he only played the easy mode that beginners play. It's like playing Persona 5 on Safety and then complaining about the game's difficulty.

As for aiming, his complaint is even more spurious because the gyro controls are the best shooter controls I've ever played on a console. Compared to Halo, Call of Duty, the Last of Us, Battlefield, etc, it's more precise and doesn't even require aim-assist, which Dunkey is apparently dependent on for pure twin-stick shooters. If he had given the motion controls a fair chance, he would've realized that aiming for other players is actually quite easy.

Technically speaking no console game "requires" aim assist, they just have them to make it more efficient. in fact I'm pretty sure Halo 5, or one of the newer Microsoft shooters, completely got rid of aim assist. 

I don't really know how much the gyro controls being "more accurate" has to do with the kind of game Splatoon is, like if Gears of War had gyro controls would it be more accurate? Anyways, the only completely accurate way of aiming in gaming in a three dimensional space is with a mouse and keyboard, so. 

I can agree with your criticisms now that you cleared them up but again, it depends on how much of it was legit critique and how much was comedy. Honestly, Dunkey's videos are the kind of thing that are more entertainment then game commentary, so idc
