(Date is just there for show I been finished this game). For some reason I could never get into the second one for very long but this one's pretty good. There's a LOT of problems however; the catalog level ups are so annoying to get through and take too long, the matchmaking sucks, NSO sucks, Salmon Run is not as effective to progress as playing Ranked/Turf War, none of the interesting elements from the story mode like the rails and stuff are used in the multiplayer maps, weapon balance is so bad, and I personally miss the old S2 Splatfest maps so much, where they would be specifically made for the splatfest and use interesting gimmicks that would be playable that weekend. All in all, it has a LOT of problems, but to me it's a pretty fun game, when you're playing with friends and not taking it too seriously. Last complaint is this should not be 60$ in any way shape or form. Way too much for what's here but w/e. Good game, lots of problems.
