Speedran this with my friends at a New Years' Eve party since one of them knew the route, and we got a time of 47 minutes. Banger way to end the year.

It certainly is a puzzle game.

I just don't think it'll ever get old. Like, at all.

I live and breathe for this series.
This might actually be my favourite 2D platformer ever.
Don't make me use my WESKER PUNCH!!!!!!
In hindsight this version sucks so much, like holy crap.

Fighting a Bulborb in this game is like challenging your pro wrestling brother to a fight with the experience of being able to push him off of the couch 20 years earlier.
This made me appreciate Ada's character in the base game way more than I thought it would have, I really don't know how to describe it. A little short and much faster paced, but still has the same general gameplay as the OG. Solid DLC.

Out of every game I constantly obsess over but have yet to actually finish or even start for myself, I am ashamed of not playing the campaign for myself the most. All I ever did was the minigames on our IPad way back when.

If I was reviewing this game like a normal person, I would just say story mode is really just a slightly worse version of Splatoon 1's, but unfortunately I did not experience the story mode like a normal person.
I beat the story mode regularly one time, and then decided to do 100%, which of course involved beating every level in the game with every weapon, ergo doing the whole game 7 MORE times, which is already a pretty steeper goal than the first game, but it did not end there for me. After being at this for a good 30 hours, all I had to do at that point was beat the final boss 2 more times.
But then the game crashed. and not only did the game crash, so did my entire Switch. so thanks to Nintendo's flawless console hardware and cloud services, I had to beat the story mode a total of 15 TIMES FOR 100%!!!!!!!!!
I love the first game's story mode more than anything and this one's only a couple steps behind in terms of general gameplay and level design, but after undergoing the hellish monotonous task that was 100%-ing it, I will no longer be able to play it without having war flashbacks and a constant fear of my Switch getting toasted again. Thanks Nintendo!
I really don't have much else to say outside of the story mode, turf war would be better if they didn't nerf the inkbrush into oblivion and I just didn't suck, and salmon Run is awesome but also brutal and hellish and unfair.
I still reach nirvana listening to the soundtrack, I'm still losing my mind over the story and lore especially now that I have to wait to buy 3 to see where it goes next, and I still want to eat the art style.
...And then Octo Expansion is every good thing I've said about this game and the first one, but then about a thousand times better.
