um... splatoon 3. i like it but its different to be reviewing a game that is still getting updates, patches and changes, one you have experienced from the start and have had to deal with some crazy shit LOL. i think splatoon 3 is easily the best in the series due to its quality of life changes and better ui among other things, but i have very mixed feelings towards it. but im not going to sit here and be uncertain about the future, ill just go over some stuff im doing in it present day. i think splatoon 3s salmon run is miles better than splatoon 2s, i mean obviously right? but honestly i could play it all day (and i do.) king salmonids are such a cool addition, and big runs > splatfests. splatfests are really cool in this game, love the idea of 3 teams even if it hasnt been working in my favor much. personally i think splatoon 3s hero mode tries WAAAY too hard. it tried to bank on octo expansions success by making them the exact same but then sucking the life out of it. in my opinion it is boring and tells kind of a nothing story. i did not feel invested at all which is very sad because ive been looking forward to it for years, but oh well. i trust side order will treat me better... one last thing since this is getting long, i havent really clicked yet with deep cut. right now they have absolutely nothing going for them and im really hoping they get some interesting developments soon. BY THE WAY I DO NOT HATE THIS GAME. sorry if im overly negative, i am for some reason very critical of games i absolutely love. i look forward to what the coming years of content bring!

It's so refreshing to see somebody else who didn't like 3's hero mode T_T

I also agree that 3's story mode was trying way too hard to be octo expansion. Felt kind of lifeless /:
