I'm trying to find out if it uses the Switch menu's game invites or not, it was not clear in the Direct (I am aware you can team up easier with people already online in the game). Also any word on offline, same system multiplayer?

I'm mixed on this direct. Some nice QoL improvements, new stages and weapons, the card game seems interesting, but no online cloud saves according to the fine print on the official Splatoon 3 website (yet again) and another long drip feed approach to content is disappointing off the bat. Gonna wait for the demo and try it out.

@ChameleonBros Ohh, there wasn't any talk of split screen multiplayer. I imagine they're skipping it.... again☹☹. I don't think the switch is powerful enough.(that's my theory).

The invite system they showed was all in-game. That's all they showed.

In the Direct, Frye, the yellow haired girl in Deep Cut (the news/splatfest characters) CREEPS me out. Not crazy about her design. XD I hope it will grow on me.

Everyone said the exact same thing about Pearl so I have a feeling they'll be more than endearing once the game (or even this large DLC) comes out proper (at least I hope)

@FrostedFlakerZZ HOW ON EARTH DID YOU ACTUALLY CALL THAT THERE WOULD BE A SCISSOR WEAPON IN 3!?

I'm in utter disbelief that you managed to predict this.

@fizza & everyon else else

Anybody notice the storekeeper girl, Harmony, is drooling pink? Is this supposed to mean she's on the drugs?(tripping balls)😆 She's so spaced out. It's funny. I'm kind of surprised Nintendo allowed it. I'm ok if they keep it. I'm sure there are some pastel rainbow people in harajuku they've based her on.😆

@WoomyNNYes I lost it when I saw her. You know why? Because she's a member of one of the bands (Chirpy Chips if you're curious) in Splatoon lore (as seen here):

If this means the band members will actually be in the games and not just something referenced outside of them?

Yes I'm obsessed with this series, how could you tell?

A cool tidbit from the website: if you have Splatoon 2 save data, you start with more of those new Sheldon Licenses, start at a higher rank in Anarchy and, best of all, GET RANKED IMMEDIATELY.

The competitive Splatoon scene is about to be thriving.

I thought the direct was really good. More than I expected. Collecting cards is a cool idea. This roll trick that repells shots, might really annoy snipers. The atmosphere really is more chinese now. But I might skip this entry. My NSO subscription is running out soon. And to be honest I do not really like the vibe anymore. To me it feels the opposite of fresh paired with a toxic feeling( not because it is more chinese now). And everyone gives of those " I am too cool for you" vibes.

Still I think this could be the best Splatoon yet and I hope everyone playing it will have a great time.

Edit: By the way @Fizza your new avatar is really cool and cute.

@Fizza HA I ACTUALLY CALLED IT NO WAY

I just had a feeling there'd be more crafty weapons, tbh I thought there might be an eraser weapon too.

Also mind my potty mouth but how bada** is wielding a giant pair of scissors

Really enjoyed the direct! Certainly got me more hyped for the game than I was at least. My highlights were:

  • The new shop owners might be my favourite yet
  • The locker idea is fun, always nice to have more stuff to unlock as you play and gives something new to check while youre wandering around the hub world
  • I love that you can test each stage solo now. I'm not that great at shooters so I get kinda stressed out when playing online, since I feel like I'm weighing down the team, but at least this way it gives me an opportunity to get used to the maps so I'll feel more comfortable jumping into it.
  • The card game mode looks fun, sometimes I end up investing more time into card game side modes like this than the full game, so I can easily see myself putting hours into the game
  • The katana weapon is interesting, I usually prefer going melee since I'm awful at aiming, so I'll probably use this quite a bit.
  • The ability to have course rotation updates/news in the top left corner of the screen so you're not interrupted all the time.
  • Big Man is great. Hope we get amiibo of all 3 members of Deep Cut eventually.

I was hoping for another new big mode introduced, like how Splatoon 2 got Salmon Run, but they showed off enough new stuff in the direct to keep me happy anyway so I don't mind as much.

@Fizza I wasn't entirely convinced before, but after this direct how could I not get it, I can understand people's "similar" frustrations, but being even being an avid splatoon 1 and 2 player I'm really excited for this game.
