How does nintendo keep making chocolate queens like marina?
They can't be stopped
Noah Thompson
Eh, even if it released next year (which is doubtful) that would be 3 years between releases. That's not too soon for a sequel.
Benjamin Russell
It will most likely be more than a year for Splatoon 3
Elijah Cooper
To make you buy the new game.
Oliver Thomas
Gottta wait for the final splat fest to end before they can do the design document for 3.
Blake Gomez
>tfw this can be memed into reality
Owen Young
Have you considered that a multiplayer shooter can retain an active community by being fun to play rather than by releasing frequent content updates? Splatoon 3 doesn't have to come out any time soon, they can just make other games and wait until the next console to release the next Splatoon.
Nicholas Hernandez
Even more confusing as to why this is the last one then because they could keep it going for another year
Oliver Rogers
Tbh they may need more material for new splatfest and need to save what they can for 3. Mark my words... we are gonna get some rematch fests next game.
Noah Harris
They said from the beginning the plan was for two years of Splatfest and here we are.
Levi Parker
Releasing a direct sequel every three or so years is pretty normal. Nintendo just typically dooms fans to wait 5-8 years for a game that's actually trying to go in a different direction before then making them wait another 3-7 years for the game they actually want.
Samuel Myers
So, we had an idol sister duo and a hip hop duo.
What's gonna be the trend in Splatoon 3
Lincoln Wood
Boy band.
Juan Cooper
No way we're already getting 3, 2 still sells like mad and has a gigantic player base. What we need is a damn spin-off or something. As soon as the AC team is done with New Horizons next year, we need some sort of spin-off to keep interest going. It can be a small eShop title or something, but the world of Splatoon demands more. Octo daughter best daughter.
Ayden Bennett
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Adam Edwards
Not a chance. Cute girls sell way more than cute boys.
Michael Brown
new thread already? totally thought it would be a couple days until i saw a cephalopod in the catalog
Brandon Price
Isn't Nogami working on the AC team right now?
Would be a bit until the release or even announcement for S3.
I don't remember much about the last fest for 1 and the news leading into 2 aside from the comics about how Callie and Marie spent time apart from one another and Octavio gave her the glasses which she tried on after a show
Chaos boys ww@ let's show these orderfags
Cooper Wright
I want another octo expansion like DLC.
Aaron Butler
What woiuld be the carrot on the stick they would dangle in front of us like playable Octos were for OE?
Levi Wright
I love Pearl.
Alexander Murphy
There's like one thread per day
Josiah Martin
I want this to be true so bad. They already determined which squid sister would be kidnapped from the last Splatfest of Splatoon 1, so in a way using a splatfest to determine the whole direction of Splat 3 isn't TOO farfetched. Has that ever happened before, by the way, where an in-game player event has been used to decide major plot and themeing elements of a sequel?
Repping Team Chaos so we can have a post-apocalyptic Salmonid invasion as the campaign for 3
Carson Flores
there are like 3 day breaks every once in a while, since the shitposting and falseflagging was to the extreme a couple days back i thought now would be one of those breaks
Justin Bailey
Hey, me too
Austin Walker
They introduced the splatfest by asking which world we want to see them in, so it's pretty much confirmed it will have some sort of effect. I don't think it's going to be as extreme as some people are dreaming though. It will probably be the same story either way but with a superficial paint job on top.
Grayson Collins
Team order > team chaos
Robert Peterson
sorry, but no
Jack Phillips
I have no clue. My mind draw to something about Salmonids but that sounds stupid
Daniel Diaz
it's Nintendo they don't support shit, they just want to move who ever does the Splatfest onto something else or fire them to save money.
Parker Mitchell
Splatoon and Animal Crossing share teams so they are probably stopping the splatfests to work on Animal Crossing content, maybe DLC
Cooper Nelson
Team order has better designs, and that's what I care about
Owen Brown
I sincerely doubt the Salmonids will ever be playable, they're just portrayed as way too barbaric and frankly ugly.
Honestly I'd just settle for more lore dumps but people are gonna want some kind of actual reward.
Mason Bell
Clearly you havent seen chaos pearl if you can say that with confidence. i want her to step on me
Carson Garcia
>ywn decapitate Salmonids with Pearl and wear their skulls as trophies
Robert Edwards
That's what I was hoping for since they called OE the first paid DLC for Splatoon. Now I just feel like I've been toyed with.
Aiden Rivera
5.0 is adding player created mini-Splatfests, so what about a DLC that involves the Final Splatfest consequences that ends with players getting to create/join their own Splatfests?
>Order Wins: Inktropolis goes 1984, players join a resistance led by Pearl and Callie to free the city again
>Chaos Wins: Inktropolis goes Mad Max, players join a police force led by Marina and Marie to bring peace to the city
>Either ends with everyone learning how important Splatfests are to Inktropolis and let everyone make their own and join others

If they do a third game i hope one of the bands takes over as show hosts. the idol duo shit is getting old. but its a japanese game so im sure we'll get another pair of girls both pandering to a different fetish.
Evan Taylor
I want them to just mix n match Callie, Pearl, Marie, and Marina, if they just keep adding new characters it's gonna get too bloated.
Angel Sanders
They're special and super loving but my heart will always be with these two girls.
Andrew Diaz
Chase Hall
HOW THE FUCK DID NARWHALS WIN WHAT HAPPENED UNICORN BROS.
Joseph Lewis
This. It's really weird that OP feels that because splatfest is ending then Splatoon 3 must be literally around the corner
Nathaniel Ortiz
I hate playing clam blitz and rainmaker with random teams so much.
Aaron Gutierrez
Splatoon 3 will release on the next Nintendo console, don't kid yourself.
I think 2 years of Splatfests is a good stopping point. Though it won't hurt to recycle themes and maps until the next game releases, which probably won't be for another 3 or 4 years.
The very least they could do is throw in all the missing stages from Splatoon (1) and the gear + weapons, but I doubt it since the old maps would have to be configured for Clam Blitz, old gear would have to be redeveloped to fit 20? different hairstyles, and kits would have to be developed for returning weapons.
Mason Reed
Order because my octo daughter just fought through hell to reach a life better than the ones she had before and I'm not about to let all my hard work go to waste and let her sink into despair as her beloved city sinks into anarchy.
Protect.
Landon Martin
My soul brother.
Brandon Sanchez
Clam Blitz is a mixed bag for me, once in a blue moon a random Will click with you and dunk the team together.
Rainmaker is fun just for how chaotic it is and even if a Match sucks it ends quickly and doesnt drag on forever like clam blitz
Jacob Rodriguez
fuck that. im tired of all 4 of them. I'd rather see one of the bands like bottom feeders or sashimori be the show hosts, at least THEY have potentially better interaction.
Joshua Gomez

Isaac Brooks
About as real as your daughter.
Joshua Martinez
Nogami and the rest of his team are working on Animal Crossing for another year. We probably won't see Splatoon 3 until Switch 2.
Robert Ramirez
They had to end eventually, but I wish they would still keep up seasonal splatfests. There's only 4 a year, it wouldn't be hard at all to just flip the switch on certain assets that already exist in-game.
Oliver Jenkins
At least I got to play as her and take her to the surface in an actual video game.
Andrew Stewart
You should write such stories of Callie. I shamelessly enjoyed doujins where that happens to her.
Nicholas Roberts

This is a sign. Splatoon is gonna turn into nintendo's COD. They're gonna start releasing a new splatoon every year which will all basically just be the same game with one or two new features. I'm calling it!
Michael Stewart
Someone needs to fix that veemo's nose and mouth lines because for a solid 2 minutes I thought I was seeing one big disjointed mouth.

William Morales

Family problems, one of the most annoying problems in existence.
You make a good point.
Wyatt Lewis
It's not a problem, fortunately. This is a happy reunion.
Michael Baker
That's good to hear. I was thinking of anger and shouting
Henry King
Okay yeah, that's much better. Though it happens so often to me, I can't help but still feel a little resentful deep down. I'm not proud of it.
Caleb Barnes
That may happen after they've been back for a few weeks, my mom and my sister (sister and her family are the ones who came back to town) butt heads often.
Other branches of the family are pretty rife with problems so I can relate, just not in this particular case.
Charles Nelson
Same with my family. My sister is usually the one that starts conflict with my mom and my grandparents
Jackson Evans
man all this talk of family i havent been in contact with mine in years
Christopher Kelly
My sister's in the right most of the time. My mother is hyper religious and will passive aggressively condescend to the both of us all the time for not living up to her standards of morality. I love her but it gets strained at times.
Colton Smith
>chaos wins
>but also means chaos loses in the end
fuck this, guess I gotta go order then.
Daniel Martin
There is no winning with chaos. The fleeting "freedoms" promised by it are lost in a sea of horrible people and crazed panic.
Parker Lee
I wish I could say the same but my sister is a lazy asshole. Just does whatever she feels like as if she owns everything, gets fired from her job because she's too busy talking with her friends, reckless spending, gets angry really quickly and talks smack whenever possible
Hunter Martinez
Seeing as the team is still working on Animal Crossing and the Switch is going to be alive for a while longer.
Don't expect splatoon 3 for a while, probably 2021 at the absolute earliest.
>Not wanting a technological dystopia.
Anarchy is so boring they created a government called libertarianism.
Wyatt Myers
I mean I wanna rep chaos in the final splatfest but at the same time I like the idea of the muffin and the short one teaming up for 3's story mode.
If I wanna rep chaos, that means i'll have to restore order later. Why can't it be madness all the time?
Fighting for the law means I get to fight against it later and that sounds cooler
Nicholas Bailey
I've known plenty of people like that, I don't understand how people get such a sense of entitlement. I hate my job with every fiber of my being but I'm also grateful to have it, I spent about a year and half without a job back in 2008 when everything went to shit and I literally almost became homeless, that shit taught me just how little a person is actually owed and that you gotta earn your shit.
True ancap libertarianism is just as retarded as communism, though in general I support small government.
Camden Evans
Why didn't they let Pearlie have it her way, this will not stand
Jack Thomas
Go with what your heart desires, and you can't do wrong.
That would be me if they weren't so adamant about staying in contact with me.
Carter Howard
yeah after not choosing the classes they expected of me and instead going into business, i got shunned pretty much and havent seen any of em in years. they weren't happy i didnt want to be a teacher like most of my family was. fuck 'em i say
Jack Baker
What a retarded thing to cut a family member off for, sorry to hear that user.
Connor Anderson
You don't understand the ridiculous amount of effort it takes to have draw a picture of two opposing matters, the Herculean strength it requires to write snappy patter between Pearl and Marina introducing and arguing for/against the two viewpoints, and then the gargantuan big brain skills to throw a bunch of brown blocks and 1P mode gimmicks into a blender to make a Shifty Station. Frankly I'm surprised the fatality rate from the programmers is so low considering the stress all this work entails.
Nolan Murphy
I JUST WANT A CUTE, ENTHUSIASTIC, DELICIOUS BROWN SQUID GF TO LOVE AND CUDDLE AND KISS AND HAVE CONSENTUAL INTERCOURSE WITH IN THE MISSIONARY POSITION AND TALK ABOUT THE SUPERIORITY OF ICE CREAM AND TICKLE HER TENTACLES

WHAT DID I DO TO DESERVE THIS
Chase Long

>posts an octopus
William Morales
Wow, that sucks. It sounds kind of cruel but if they've cut off contact for something that petty, you're probably better off without them.
That's an octopus.
Hudson Turner
i knew right as i didnt want to teach that something bad would happen, so i came to accept reality relatively quickly. while life kinda sucks right now these threads unironically help me cope and put up with it

Maybe he wants to fug parallel universe Marina.

Why did they still draw Marina with octo eyes AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Ryan Evans
Are you blind?
Juan Flores
Things will get better, you'll see.
She has squid eyes, you bat. Look at Octo Marina, she's got the octo eyes.
Hudson Gomez
Squid eyemasks are rounded, she still has the edges on hers

What'll probably happen is whoever wins end up being the baddies in Splat 3 but they'll be a what if/parallel universe expansion where it's flipped also maybe playable sea hares

Aiden Morris
No other map ever game me the feeling of it being a real place in a real world where people actually lived like Flounder Heights man, those fucking cicadas. Goddamn Animal Crossing influence rearing its head again.
Mason Price
Honestly I'm still wondering why we didn't get any Salmon run add ons. I would of like to have all eight available players take on massive waves and new bosses but lol no. Gotta wait till Splat3
Christopher Reyes
I was thinking about how much I miss this stage awhile back and I figured the only reason they didn't bring it back was because Ink Storm would work funky with the high structures in the middle since the clouds tend to go inside the buildings in Moray Towers.
Doesn't excuse why Mahi Mahi and other stages being absent though.
I would still gladly trade Moray and Port Mackerel for Mahi Mahi, Flounder Heights or Museum d'Alfonsino back.
At least Bluefin Depot didn't return. Fuck that stage.
Jeremiah Barnes
Don't forget that Exhentai has both of the artbooks on it right now.

I wanted an endless mode. Keep the waves going, difficulty increasing, until all players perish or the quota isn't reached. Grizz restores two specials to you every 3 waves.

Angel Nelson
We can't have all the nice things, I guess.
Daniel Ross
I feel like Splatoon 3 is far off, for one they don't seem to know "what would innovate it enough to warrant a sequel" due to no news or even comments, and their team is working extra hard to salvage the new Animal Crossing.
Last Splatfest is a good title for it.

It's dangerous to play both sides.
If one finds out they'll surely punish you.
Pearl would probably put you to work in the deeper darker pits with the extra wild, almost feral Woomies that will surely claw and bite at you as they get their fill of seed, their strong genes make them perfect mothers but they make for poor wives as they frequently fight over whose turn it is to get creampied
Marina will most likely send you to the experimental division where they test out new extraction techniques and devices, rumor has it that there's been a breakthrough in prostate stimulation tech, and that domineering nurses tend to get more semen output, heavy and repeated testing is required to be certain
Tyler Lee
Has he ever read Lucah's book yet?

Luke Bell
It fits the splatoon ocean theme better, narwhals are splatoon's true unicorns. Everyone just followed a gay epic unicorn meme to failure.
Angel Sullivan
They obviously wouldn't hurt you too much, they're wild but not stupid, you'd definitely get scratches and a few marks but nothing permanently damaging or fatal.
That being said the experimental division us probably a little more dangerous, after all they're trying to maximize efficiency, it might experience over stimulation or dehydration from extensive testing as they push limits and look for breakthroughs

Because he hasn't tried to take control of Komobo Co. again or rebuild anything to continue his work. Agent 8 is free to come and go between the Deepsea Metro and Inkopolis as much as she wants. There is no longer a threat of test participants being blended up, and CQ Cumber operates the train independent of the company now.

Julian Perry
I'm not a huge fan of the nigger design for that one, or her partner. Haven't started Spla2n yet but I have it sitting around here. Hopefully the next iteration of the squid sisters is cuter than this one was.
Julian Martinez
My phone just broke last week, I dont need to lose another one quite so quick
Jack Martinez
Nope. Octolings are just Octarians that have grown 7 more tentacles and so can assume humanoid form like the Inklings can. They are the best the Octarians have to offer, and the Octobosses are formed from cuttings of Octavio's tentacle, as they share his signature X-shaped scar.
Luke Torres
CALCETIN CON ROMBOS MAN
Juan Hill
That picture just says Octarians. While it's confusing as Octarians can refer to either the whole species including Octolings or just the walking tentacle things, by the difference in forms it makes sense that it means the tentacle things are made by cutting the tentacles off of the humanoid Octolings, not that Octolings also grow from tentacles. It's clearly a reference to how severed octopus legs can keep moving, but obviously octopuses still reproduce sexually. Note also that it talks about them getting smarter with more tentacles, which likely refers to the one versus two tentacled Octarians in the campaign, while this wouldn't apply to Octolings as they all have 8 limbs. My headcannon is that Octolings are the standard form of Octarians with the tentacle budding being an emergency reproduction measure similar to IRL, but when Octavio industrialized the Octarians into a culture bred exclusively for war, he started mass-producing the clipping-derived Octarians as a swarm of foot soldiers, to preserve the smaller numbers of proper Octolings for more elite duties.
Tl;dr Marina has a pussy

Isaac Richardson
Once a month the resident idols receive a message from god (reflected messages from ancient, extinct humanity bouncing off stellar bodies and returning to Earth via fax machine) about asinine subjects of arguments, points of discussion, and the residents of Inkopolis celebrate these messages by throwing a festival, where residents can pick one of the two sides of the argument to join and fight for fun and profit. As development is finishing on Splatoon 2, next month's Splatfest is special, the Splatocalypse, the very last one. In Splatoon 1 the last Splatfest decided the story mode for Splatoon 2, so people are speculating the same might happen again.
Luis Morales
Damn, I never get to join the fun in time. Fuck being poor.
Kevin Morris
>"It seems that some Octarians can assume humanoid form. These specimens have superior physical capabilities and are highly aggressive. High-ranking individuals have kelp on their heads. But what motivates them, if anything at all?"
And why put images of Octolings next to that description in the artbook if it weren't talking about them too?
Landon Brooks
because the splatoon devs are also making animal crossing and they can't do 20 things togheter
Oliver Torres
>reflected messages from ancient, extinct humanity bouncing off stellar bodies and returning to Earth via fax machine
I always assumed the Squid Research Lab wasn't just an out of universe social media account, but was supposed to represent a hidden group of human survivors in game who fax the Splatfests to the Inklings to study the outcome. Correct me if the artbooks say something different.
Mason Lewis
While mooks and amazons are all identical, true octolings and the few complete octarians we saw are all distinct. I can accept that amazons are like you say, a clone army made by overgrowing mooks, but that's about it.
Onto octolings and octarians, they have completely different mprphology. Octolings and amazons are sufficiently different too, especially their octopus forms (and especially especially the fact that amazons have green eyes like octarians).
The bosses are mostly mechanical machines powered/controlled by Octavio's tentacles, and even then there is Samurai, a distinct complete octarian who merely wields an Octavio-powered roller.
Hudson Jenkins
I am a fan of Splatoon and I fucking love how creative it is, so seeing their talent being squandered on something so dull is infuriating. If they were tasked with reviving some dead and buried franchise or even making another new IP I would be much more accepting.

I gathered the green eyes was a result of Octavio's music brainwashing being pumped throughout Octo Valley and Octo Canyon, and when the Squid Sisters played Calamari Inkantation and broke the brainwashing the ones freed had their eyes reverted, including Marina.
Brayden Ortiz
Sleep tight, lover of Callie.
Kevin Richardson
They need to know the result so they can start working on the story as soon as possible.

>And why put images of Octolings next to that description in the artbook if it weren't talking about them too?
Because it was talking about how they're the "hosts" the clippings are taken from. Also note the statement "they have no reproductive capability of their own." If clipping was how Octarians and Octolings were produced, then that statement would be nonsensical, as the clipping would be the reproductive capability they all had to propagate the species. It only makes sense if we assume it's talking about seperate drones (Octarians proper) incapable of reproducing, vis a vis reproduction capable Octolings who can reproduce by clipping off Octarians, but since Octarians by this definition can not reproduce, the Octolings must by extension also have another seperate way of reproducing other Octolings, presumably sexually. It also doen't make sense for there to be male and female Octolings if they are the same as the asexually produced Octarians.
Tl;dr the way the statement in the artbook is worded logically neccesitates seperate reproducing and non reproducing forms, boy octolings exist, Marina still has a pussy.

Their talent is being "squandered" on refreshing an IP lacking in originality, it's tough on Splatoon fans but ultimately a good thing even if you are as hateful as you sound
Carson Clark
That would imply that a) Octavio brainwashed himself (which even he isn't dumb enough to do), and b) he should've been debrainwashed back in S1 days complete with eye whitening, neither of which happened.
Andrew Mitchell
>While mooks and amazons are all identical
Mooks yes, but the background files for Marina in the expansion portray her as an Amazon, and she obviously looks different. And it's implied Agent 8 was in training to be an Octarian soldier. As the other user said, the eye color is probably just brainwashing. What's most likely is that Amazons are just the most elite of the Octolings, possibly genetically modified, and both are distinct from the Octarian mooks who are cuttings of their tentacles. The boss tentacles are cuttings from Octavio, who is an Octoling who is trapped in Octopus form either as a result of or to prevent aging, like Capn Cuttlefish's sun-drying.
Jaxon Collins
It's probably just a generic "evil" eye color, which Octavio, after becoming evil, and everyone he brainwashed would aquire.
Cooper Nguyen
I don't know of any file hosting service that'll take it, it's pretty fucking huge and long(lol) not even imgur will take it. If you have a suggestion for me, I'm all ears my dude.
Nicholas Jenkins
You don't get it. There's not much to catch with Spla2n anymore without a complete shakeup like wiping all the specials again, so I'm happy they moved on.
I'm mad that they moved onto a game with so little potential though, and it's not like it's something they can fix- they were responsible for AC since day 1 and are yet to deliver something worthwhile in that series. The best case would've been to give AC to some aspiring team that may look at it from a different angle and break the stagnation, while Nogami&Co go on to work on something more exciting.
Charles Gray
IIRC Agent 8 already was a fully-fledged Octozon at the time, and fought Agent 3 during or after the Squid Sisters' concert, being freed by the Inkantation but remaining with Octavio's forces for whatever reason. Two years later 8 fought 3 again, and 8, 3, and Capn' Cuttlefish ended up in the Deepsea Metro as a result, with 8's memories being stolen to facilitate testing. The Inner Agent 3 fight is 8 remembering the first fight with 3 in Octo Valley, trying to overcome the ideal hero 8 now sees 3 as.
Colton Jackson
The army of octolings is probably like that clone army in star wars- the bulk of it are clone troopers, but there are also a bunch of regular recruits, which in our case would be the true octolings.
>Amazons are most elite
I think the opposite would be true. Regular redhead amazons are dumb, fragile and can't quite drive some of the weaponry (their blasters have halved fire rate, and they can't use chargers at all). Elites are more capable, but some of those may actually be recruits rather than clones.
Marina's files imply she is not exactly a normal octo, she's either a super prototype amazon or a child prodidgy true octoling.
Samuel Hill
The Splatoon series would be fucking perfect for a SOL style anime with a little battle shonen thrown in for flavor. Dare you prove me wrong?
Eli Kelly
I'd rather have a full-fledged sports anime like Haikyuu, except sports in question are turf wars. To hell with SoL.
Aaron Morris
We all have a forgotten Nintendo IP.
Wyatt Perry
I haven't heard anything about that in the second artbook (yet) so that's actually pretty solid. Either that or some AIs just got bored and started sending stuff to the cephalopod humanoids for shits and giggles.
The AI Tartar got tired of seeing that type of negligent behavior though, so who knows.
Christian Nelson
We can't.
Ian Nelson
>eyeshield 21 with Squids an Octos
Fucking fund it
Aiden Gray
post more prehensile tentacles
Joseph Cruz
It would be perfect for an RPG spinoff. I considered making one but I just can't motivate myself much less get a team together to make it happen.
Brayden Bell
I don't think it's prehensile, Agent 4 is just a woomlet.
Caleb Sanders
People want Splatoon as much as people want a new AC and no one has any expectations about them working on a new ip so all your points are moot
Sebastian James
Benjamin Clark
>You don't get it
Its actually you who doesn't get it but okay.
Adam Stewart
AC would print money regardless of its devs, and it wouldn't be much different from what the Splat team can do with it because Animal Crossing doesn't have much stuff to do differently in the first place, it always was just minor variations of the same formula.
Joseph Cooper
>it always was just minor variations of the same formula.
That explains why Splatoon 2 is almost exactly like Splatoon 1. Based dev team.
Matthew Allen
Splatoon is a good game though. Animal Crossing is barely a game, it's a chore simulator.
Josiah Jones
Whatever you say Timmy. Whatever you say.
Mason Rodriguez
That's Agent 3
Samuel Lopez
why cant they just redo some splatfests now then? how am i gonna get shells and concerts?
Jacob Hughes
Shit, my finger slipped.
I don't know why they can't add the same functionality for the Pearl and Marina amiibos that Callie and Marie had for 1.
Cameron Sanders
>shells
Level up past 30
>concerts
Play with your ffriends

only chance i have is maybe dropping a lobby on here now and then

Nah, 3 years is an average lifespan for a multiplayer shooter. Hell, the Call of Duty series has been churning out one game per year since two thousand fucking five.
So I won't be surprised to see Splatoon 3 next year, I just hope they have enough new content to justify the price.
Aiden James
I want a stylish action spin-off where better style is equal to how much ink is beaten out of someone and one of the ratings is still turf inked
Bentley Harris
Too soon
Parker Hall
I just wish they expanded Salmon Run.
Normal PvP stuff is too stressful for me tho I do well at Splatfests
Jaxson Gomez
Is it too late to get a Switch for this game now?
Or Should I wait for new Switch consoles instead?

if the winner of this next splatfest determines splat 3 then why not go chaos

Because chaos is for anarchist chumps who don't like having a world to live in.

Splatoon 3 will be about overthrowing a tyrannical dictatorship if Order wins. If Chaos it will be about banding together random tribes of squids to rebuild civilization.
Luis Brown
Operator veemo is a deadly kind of cute
Jayden Lopez
I think civilization in the squid world is pretty advanced already and doesn't need to be rebuilt.
Also, a tyrannical dictatorship by whom? Octavio? He's in a snowglobe.

The last splatfest is next month. I can't see Splatoon 3 being any earlier than next year where it will be at E3. That's going to be an entire year with no Splatfests and no new content. That's not really great.
Isaiah Cruz
I look at the splatoon series like smash in which we'll only get a new game when Nintendo puts out a new system. We may get another DLC campaign.
Brody Perez
Jaxson Evans
The Halloween one, Christmas one and octos vs squids were good
Jayden Gutierrez
Octo V Squid was the best by far. The rest outside of seasonal ones like Christmas were pretty weak and stakes didn't seem to matter.
