5 Good Things About Splatoon So Far!

Ah, a last minute entry right before I head out to the wilderness with no WiFi to be harassed by raccoon's  for a few days. Seriously though, I love camping. Anyways. I never really thought much of Splatoon cause I heard of it first trough the "Your a squid now! Your a kid now! Your a squid your a kid your a squid noow" crap. But I saw Gaijin Goombah, one of my favorite YouTubers, play Splatoon on a stream, and I was in love. I loved the cool theme and the concept of Turf War was a lot more interesting then most shooters in my opinion. I was originally going to make another 5 Good / 5 Bad Splatoon entry, but I could only find like three bad, all the others are easily fixable and minor. I will however mention now the lack of difference between each map, and the fact that we need more maps soon, or were going to get bored.

5 Good Things About Splatoon So Far!

1. The singleplayer is awesome. I was listening to Gaijin talk about it, and he liked it. and honestly, whereas I may have enjoyed playing multiplayer more then singleplayer, watching singleplayer is more fun then watching multiplayer. At least until we get more maps. The singleplayer blends platformer and shooter well, even if the enemies are easy as hell.

2. The community is awesome. /r/splatoon got subreddit of the day a few days ago.
/r/Splatoon shout out in Splatoon!
3. Miiverse Compatibility and Graffiti! Have you seen some of the "Graffiti" which players have made using the Miiverse feature. It's really cool, it's like the pictures people draw in Miiverse but actually put into the game in a unique way which fits into the style. And the community got creative.
Oh, Miiverse...

4. This picture sums up my fourth point pretty well.

5. This video by GameXplain! New maps, and weapons! 2 of the maps are Bluefin Depot and Kelp Dome! Bluefin is level 20 and Kelp Dome is mission 8! New guns as well!



Anyways, from Graffiti to the new maps, Splatoon has become a hit, and hopefully it will continue that way. Need more Splatoon? Check all this out for your Ink Fix:
