I played it yesterday and it's a good time. I'm not giving my life away to multiplayer games anymore (and the missions suck, just wave based shite)
So I'll probably only hop on now and then.
It is an enjoyable game though, it has good vibes too even though it's waifu bait characters.
Funny how the pokemans absolute ripoff game is the biggest sensation of all time ever but the splatoon ripoff game is awful and we should all riot in the streets
, and I'm not even getting into those reviews from those Journos, what poorly written half witted tripe they spew.
It's almost like this game didn't have the same marketing team on things like tiktok that palworld had. (Which already has a drop-off of over 50% of its players by the way, so was definitely a fad)

Where are the media reviews?

Well, no, Palworld had Fakemon in it, it's that simple (it is a decent enough game though but nothing spectacular). This game is a Splatoon rip off of course and it's fun enough, but you can't help feeling this is going to go the way of Destruction All-stars (which I actually enjoyed for a while)I played it yesterday and it's a good time.

but that's the point, all it took was fake pokemon and social media drumming that up (there are other fake pokemon games that haven't moved the needle), whereas a fake splatoon game is gonna live and die and people are mad now because it's a fake splatoon game apparently.
people just kind of do what the internet tells them to do. Palworld is the greatest example of that we have had in years. Much like buying a metal cup because the internet told everyone they have to do it.

Ah, yeh, social media getting in a tizz, yeh, I agree with that. But as we'll likely find out next week, social media often blows things up.

100% I prefer this over splatoon by a country mile.

I mean, didn't everyone watch that trailer and think 'wtf is this shit?' or was it just me?

Didnt the steam reviews reflect the metacritic quite a bit.

It still always gets me that not only does Splatoon have Lore, its pretty fucking dark lore at that

Just wanted to add that I try to avoid making these types of clickbait / engagement threads. I'll leave these toBecause

Nonsense. This game is unstoppabubble.

For the average, a 0 hurts more than a 10.
I bet none of those are actual PS players, just cringy Pikmins, the same type that broke PS4 consoles at the Genshin Impact presentation event.

Doesn't mean thats not a troll score dude.
This is not a competition between who gets more hurt. Spam zeros and spam tens are still spam, period.
If people are spamming 10 and spamming 0, both need to be removed.
If you either give a 10 or a 0 at least put some effort about saying 'why'.

Truth. They are the absolute worst for gate-keeping certain styles of game down.
People wonder why character mascot platformers, kart racers, and so on rarely get made. Its so obvious when these types so concertedly salt the earth to ensure no alternatives ever get a footing.

Here we go again,
Psychopath Nintendo fans at it again.
Palworld would have suffered for the same thing if it opened itself up to userreviews on Metacritic as well.
It doesn't happen as much on Steam because people have to have PLAYED the game

Not free. Requires active PSPlus subscription.

Splatoon requires nintendo online.

Probably. They’ve played the real deal, and are weighing the Wish version against it.
You think those “10” scores are legit, and not PS5 fanboys doing free damage control?

Do you get splatoon in the subscription?

Imagine using Metacritic users review as a Metric.
Never go full retarded
Did you guys play it?
What about the fact that the games like it are usually not as good? I didn't see people ripping on Crash Team Racing or Sonic Racing Transformed. Or even something like DQ Monsters.
With NSO you get the single player DLC for Splatoon 2, not the full game.

I’m not a Nintendo kid. I have more hair in my ears than on my head.
Foamstars is absolute ass. The movement is shit. The gun play is ok at best. The characters never shut up. It’s awful.

Movement feels great tho.

Palworld seems to build on the concept instead of merely being a cheap copy.

So what? Not every new release is best-in-class! The key metric is competition on the system for which the title is published.
Exceptions prove the rule. Also every title mentioned was built off a strong pre-existing IP.
My main issue is fanboy activists stifling creativity out of a misguided need to protect their preciouses! Not cool, IMHO.

Alot of games are copycats. If the game is fun whats the problem?

If people want to play a low-rent Splatoon on PS5, then yea the game fits that bill, but they shouldn't be surprised when people call it a low-rent Splatoon.
Nobody is stifling anything. The problem is that these games suck. The Smash Bros. clones that came out were mostly bad. Crash Team Racing was good. That is the difference. Make a game as good as Nintendo makes and you have a much better chance of finding success. Of course making a game as good as Nintendo is really hard to do.

That’s not what the thread title suggests.

I played Genshin for a little bit but it didn't strike me as being like BOTW at all, except for maybe world design and stamina. Not sure what you are getting at here.Let me guess genshin is a cheap botw clone

I like genshin but this seems like a selective opinion. The similarities are way deeper than that but I get it it's always a hive mind to hate certain games.

What point are you trying to make, exactly?
