Right, but many did expect this feedback, and I say Nintendo would've been better off to have listened to these people and not been shady about how they release the game's content. As well, Nintendo should listen to these people in the future now that they've been proven right.
Yeah, for the most part I took to the controls like a fish in water. Jumping with X is still a dumb decision to me, but over the course of the Testfire I got used to it.
I see, well guess that's why.
Gotcha,
The WHOLE GAME felt dumb to me, then I got used to It and feel its all for the best, maybe I SHOULD feel the same way about ranked but it doesn't hurt to be picky.
Well tbh the "fair start for everyone" was less of importance in my reasoning than "being better at the game at lvl 10+" but...since you asked.
Yeah things go so nicely until people disagree with you and you're forced to repeat what you've been saying for 3 pages because you don't have an actual counter to his argument.
I didn't though. I'm gonna buy it used, I'm just upset that the ship they pulled with holding things back from launch turned out to be pointless for everybody.
I bought Splatoon day one despite not paying full price because outside of Nintendo's piss poor handling of the game, the base game mechanics are fun and I wanted a game to play with friends. Considering that it's dry season on Wii U and all of my other devices, I was looking for a summer title.....and Splatoon is pretty much the only one lol.
If you didn't buy it then there isn't much to complain about. By the time you have the game you'll have your $60's worth. Nintendo told everyone during that direct (actually before that direct) that people had to hit lv.10 to unlock splat zones, and they bought it knowing this. It not like they told us this on release day, they even had a cute meter to keep everyone updated on the whole deal.
Imagine paying $60 for Mario Kart 8 if it released with only 3 cups lol. Yeah...Nintendo is better than this and that's why the OP is mad. Locked content doesn't benefit anyone but Nintendo. They get to put out a product that isn't fully featured and still reap the benefits. This is not something many consumers are ok buying into. If Splatoon were say $30-$40 at launch or a budget title...ok. The way Nintendo is handling Splatoon is very un-Nintendo.
Who's fault is it? Mine, for being cautiously optimistic that after 30 years of game making they'd continue selling me complete ones.
I don't think Nintendo's "trying" anything. What I think is Nintendo needed a big summer title out, so they decided to launch Splatoon in it's current state so they won't go through summer without having any big releases. If I'm correct, it makes a lot of sense. Summer's a time when many people have the free time, so they wanted to capitalize on it.
The hell is wrong with you? She described precisely why she purchased Splatoon. This isn't silly, this is sick how you could be so flippant and disrespectful to people.
I get it. It makes sense, but if a game is unfinished people will remember it forever and it has left an impression on many people like myself as well as the OP. There's a give and take with all of this even aside from Nintendo. These publishers continue prioritizing release schedules and financial gain over the actual product itself. It's honestly something that is an issue across the board and a large reason many gamers are losing faith in this industry.
