Bullshit, I'm here because this is a public discussion forum and I wanted to share my opinion on the matter, go back to my first post in this thread and tell me what is wrong about it aside from the TDM part (oh my god I mispoke, I'm so exposed). You just felt hurt and had to go on the offensive defending Nintendo.

I'm really sorry that not everything Nintendo does is rainbows and sunshine.

You didn't misspoke. You know nothing about this game which is why no one here takes you serious. The idea of covering the ground in your team's ink has been the central plot to this game the entire time. And you didn't even know that.

Next time, do some research on the game you're going to bash.

Oh man all those assumptions made simply on the fact that I said TDM instead of Turf War, good thing you know me so well, I guess that means that I don't watch basically every Nintendo Direct that comes out, including the one on Splatoon recently.

Quick, someone tell SBB4 and MK8 that they bombed!



League of legends bombed too! We are living on Matrix.

Have you ever heard of teamspeak? LoL players use 3rd party software to voice chat all the time. Same with WoW. 

Try again. 



Sigs are dumb. And so are you!

And you can make the same with splatoon. It´s called skype, and you can have it on your phone.

Ah, and people can't do that with Splatoon? It's impossible for fans of this game to exchange Skype or TS on forums to communicate with each other?

Because everybody on the planet owns a smartphone. Great solution. Clearly better than Nintendo just, you know, adding voice chat.

Of course, so you buy a 300$ WiiU, and you buy an online multiplayer shooter, buuuuttt you dont have a smartphone/tablet/laptop/pc. Any of those.

Riiight

Why should people have to jump through hoops in order to use a feature that's been a staple for multiplayer games since 2001? I can voice chat with people on Pokemon games for Christ's sake.

I will take Splatoon's "early acess" $60 over f'n Mortal Kombat (i own it on XB1 btw) and their day 1 DLC $30. That's for mf'n sure.

Content is part of the package a very important part, and the lack of it will hurt the ratings (how much will depend on each reviewer), if you have a good gameplay but very little variety the score will reflect it because the game becomes repetitive or boring very fast and that is a HUGE problem in a game. It is too early to tell but it is clear that a more robust package on day 1 will increase the value of the product and improve the review scores. I think is good that they have plans to support the game after launch, but it feels like some of that support should be in the product in the first place, when others companies do it I don't like it, and when Nintendo does it, I also don't like it.


Except a game with good gameplay doesn't become boring or repetitive too quickly, hence why it has good gameplay. A game with shitty gameplay will still be shit even with a million levels. Splatoon thankfully has great gameplay, similar to that of Smash Bros. and Mario Kart. Every battle is dynamic, fast-paced, and ever changing, with each one turning out differently from the last, even when played on the same map, and you always feels you have a shot a winning with comebacks being pretty doable, thus highly addictive.

You said games without voice chat have no community and no legs. I gave you plenty of examples and alternative methods of communicating.

When life gives you lemons, turn them into lemonade. Don't rub them in your eyes.
