None of those additions would get me or others like me to buy a mostly only multiplayer game again so shortly after the first one. This isn't the call of duty crowd. New maps, weapons mean absolutely nothing to me. New modes do mean something, but not enough to buy it. The expansion was the most interesting part for 2 but I didn't want to have to buy both. A full game should have a fully built in story mode, anything else and devs are just being cheap. Same goes for Overwatch, Apex Legends, PUBG. Bunch of cheap games with no story mode. Overwatch 2 will have a story mode I believe and I'm highly interested because of that, same with Splatoon 3. Make a full game or go home if you want gamers like me and not just the multiplayer-only crowd. If they just stick with a multiplayer only focus then there are going to be people each game that don't buy the next one. Not everyone cares about shiny new guns or maps. Just like not everyone cares about single player story modes. But if they want full potential sales they need both. |
You better give up Splatoon 3 then, it's clearly a multiplayer focused game. The appeals of the franchise lies on its multiplayer, it has far more to do with games like Fortinite, Paladins and Overwatch, Valorant and so on
It will have some story mode that you will beat in 10 hours and never play again, imagine a Ratchet & Clank game, but worse
