So I beat the Octo Expansion and absolutely loved it. However, I am a little confused on the overall story. I think the game did a great job of fleshing out Pearl and Marina's characters, but the main story itself left me with questions. For one, CQ Cumber says that deep sea life is forbidden...

Hey, how exactly do the amiibo work? I was told to scan them and each day, they'd give me new gear. I got the headgear the first time, but whenever I try again, they just give me the options to take a picture.

So I also beat single player mode and I gotta say, although I really loved Splatoon 1's single player mode, I enjoyed Splatoon 2's so much more. A lot is very similar, but I feel like they just improved on everything that was already great. HOWEVER, after beating the final boss and collecting...

That sounds even more punishing then the first game...

I have two questions for you guys: 1. What do Power Eggs do in Salmon Run? The Golden Eggs are what get you the rewards, right? So what do the Power Eggs do? 2. How does ranking up work in Ranked Mode? I just reached level 10 and started some ranked matches. I make progress pretty slowly, but...

This is kinda how I feel. I understand trying to balance the game and all, but Splatoon 2's specials just don't feel as fun to use. The first game's were fun to use, which is really what matters most, right? Fun? Plus, I actually never felt like Splatoon 1's specials were that overpowered...

The specials in Splatoon 2 just seem so much less impressive in comparison. A lot of them feel like nerfed and less reliable versions of specials from the first game. The Tenta Missiles are like an Inkstrike, except they never hit because they give your opponent way too much fair warning. Ink...

What's the point in rage quitting? Is there any benefit to it at all? Don't you just lose more than you would've if you just stuck around?

The thing is, Splatoon is a very team-based game. Losses aren't entirely on one person. Sometimes you could be doing everything right, but your team is just not doing well. So when I lose and lose more points than I gained, it doesn't feel like the game is punishing me for sucking and saying I'm...

Ugh! I hate this. I don't wanna sound like a whiner, but this is why I stopped playing Splatoon for a while. There was a point in the past where I was winning a bunch of matches, but only being rewarded 8 points each. Then I lost a few, but lost 14 points each and there went all my hard work. I...

I played 4 matches today, all Ranked, all B+ players. Whenever we'd win, I'd only gain 10 points. But whenever we'd lose, I'd lose 12 points! So despite winning and losing an equal amount of times, I went from 76 points to 72 when I was done. I DON'T GET IT!! What determines when I receive/lose...

Were we in the same match!?

Oh my god, I've had teammates do that too. WHY DO THEY DO THAT!!?

I'm sure we've all had some bad matches. Matches that make you really frustrated and you end up blaming your team's incompetence for the loss. Maybe your team truly wasn't playing well, or maybe you were the one not pulling your weight and you blame your team out of anger. It happens. But has...

No, I swear to you I lost 20 points that one time. I was so shocked that it's what made me make this thread in the first place.
