I liked the singe player campaign. The new main lobby is cool and the game plays very smooth. The soundtrack is really good and memorable.
But here are my criticisms: No new modes, a few new weapons and a new dodge mechanic just feel like they could've been an update for Splatoon 2. I recognize that they made some smaller changes. But for me personally there were not enough changes to warrant a sequel on the same console (from a casual perspective). Also the online connectivity is still terrible.
I played the online mode a bit but dropped it after the first Splatfest. At last, I wanted mentioned that I found the catalog way too grindy.
Overall everything regarding the single player was fine. The game has some minor improvements but I wished that they waited until the next console so there are bigger changes. In this state, the game is fun but it could've been better.
