Very good and lots of fun for what it is. Most of my issues come from the balance competitively being UTTERLY atrocious. The maps are garbage, the shooter bias has never been worse, and the patches are way too insignificant at changing key areas that would make the game way better. Now, for a casual player, this may not matter much but I do think that the map design and the extreme bias towards shooters would still be felt at a casual level. That being said, I still love this game and I've been pouring hours into it daily. Splatoon 3 added a ton of great specials, interesting weapons like the stringers or splatanas, and continues to capture that Splatoon charm. The music is still very well composed, featuring a lot of bizarre and unorthodox compositions (Bang Bing being the best obviously) giving it a very memorable soundtrack. I love the changes to Salmon Run as it's MUCH more difficult and the addition of boss salmonids are such great ideas for giving added depth to the mode. The story mode's also just amazing. I loved the twist and turns it took and the gameplay was still great as ever.The best single-player campaign of the three by a SIGNIFICANT margin. I guess besides balance issues, I'd say my main thing is I wish the game handled Tri-Color turf war better because as it stands it's just... Really weird and broken? I thought a three way 3V3V3 turf war would've been the best way to do it but it's just this weird two teams against one kinda deal. Overall, this is turning out to be one of my most played games ever so I really can't knock too many points off for that. Tenta Missiles still suck though.
