Poll: Will You Play Splatoon 2's DLC Now That It's Included In Switch Online's Expansion Pack?

Purchased and played through it when it came out. Actually, I had already sold off Splatoon 2 at that point, but I was so interested in the DLC that I actually repurchased the game in order to gain access to the DLC.

Great campaign. Much, much more satisfying than the single-player content in the base game.

Got it through a heavy discount thanks to a sale and gold coins...

....but with the new one on the way, might as well crack it open and play soon.

Nah. I already played through it back in 2018 and enjoyed it a lot. Still haven't beat Inner Agent 3 lol

Never bothered to play the single player mode in either Splatoon game and not touched it in probably three or four years at this point so highly doubtful.

It looks great, but I’m still disappointed in the lack of a complete physical release or a New Super Luigi U style standalone release.

And considering this precedent, I’ll likely skip Splatoon 3 altogether as I have no interest in online multiplayer or the prospect of a game that will be supplemented with a substantial chunk of content that won’t be on the cart.

I would if I had the game. The best I can do is borrow it from my nephew. And even then, I'd rather finish the base game single-player mode before moving on to the Octo Expansion. Still, a likely candidate for DLC purchase when/if the Switch eShop dies.

Already have the DLC, but still a nice addition to NSO+.

I live under a rock and only play turf war..

Nintendo should've started NSO and NSO+ tiers at the same time, with NSO+ to include all DLCs from current and future Nintendo AAA games...that would have been more attractive.

I sat on the DLC for 2 years after buying it and then finally beat it the day they announced this… lesson learned

not getting nso but i thought about octo expansion when they announced they'd be including dlc in the nso expansion. i think it's nice that already put out ones will be included. what else is there? botw, pokken, smash, three houses? pokemon... pokemon home...

No I will not. Not for me

Nope cuz don't have the Expansion Pack.

@Kirbo100 Same, tried for about an hour and wasn't getting anywhere. Would rather try and beat a souls game...and I hate souls games.

...Nintendo... I’m pretty sure that most of us already have it...

Bought it waaaaaayyy before and played it to completion on 2 different saves. To those getting it on NSO, you're in for a treat. My fave DLC of all time (not that I have a lot though). Oh and get ready to rage a thousand times on Girl Power Station!

Splatoon 1 was enough.

Already had the dlc.

All the retro games on NSO should have had the same treatment as these expansion packs in that if you don't have Switch Online you can always purchase and download them for play instead or if you don't want to purchase and download them then just play them through NSO. Not sure why Nintendo treat the retro games section different from the expansion packs, people would buy those retro games if a purchase download option is available.

I had just beaten Splatoon 2 a day before this was announced, funnily enough. I don’t think I’ll subscribe to it for this, but its on the mind if I ever do choose to subscribe. I was a bit cold on the campaign of Splatoon 2, I know people say Octo Expansion is better, but I feel like any single player campaign will be weak to me.

Singlehandedly best DLC (XC2's TTGC got a separate physical release) Nintendo has ever released. No bs with charging people for previously-featured modes of play or major playable features, no bs with introducing a lackluster set of gameplay. Simple, diverse, difficult, and fun.

I don’t own Splatoon, but if I did I still wouldn’t because I like to own my console/handheld games and all content. I sub to the basic family sub for cloud saves and that’s it.

I’d already bought it. That said, I’m replaying the single player part again as playing Splatoon is one of the weekly missions and I’ve got back into it. 😅

I still can’t stand not being able to use up/down on the right analogue stick when using gyro aiming though. 🙄

I already own it, never finished it, and don't intend to finish it this time either.

Bought it on sale a while ago. Still in my backlog along with the main game as well as the original on Wii U.

Really waited a long time until finally it was on sale.. and then sort of forgot to actually properly play it... will try now, hopefully

Bought it as soon as it was available, already finished it as well.

But it's nice for people that didn't have the DLC.

It's already in backlog but good precedent in regards to older dlc. Hopefully they will continue to add others previously released as well as future dlc releases for games

Come on Nintendo add Zelda BOTW dlc, and FE3H dlc !!!!

I would if I owned the base game

I still gotta get Splatoon 2 so the Octo Expansion is still far off for me lol

Another game I just don't own. And if I really enjoyed a game I'd just buy the DLC outright as I would want to own it. Not sure if DLC is really adding value right now to NSO +. Definitely worth it for Tetris 99 & Pac-Man 99 but you can get those with the base subscription. I'd like to see Nintendo make stuff like Bowser's Fury or Xenoblade Torna, smaller but full game experiences, free.

I'm not sure there's anything that Nintendo could add to be worth an $80 yearly family plan price. It's just too much money. I prefer to prioritize playing, and setting aside money to play, major tentpole releases, like the upcoming XC3, over allocating such a large amount of fundage for the ability to play online and have access to some retro games. Plus, like all DLC, I'd rather buy it and own it than rent it with the expansion pack. The second the user no longer feels the expansion pack brings enough value to continue purchasing, or the second Nintendo shuts down the servers, the user loses access to that content. That unfortunate truth paired with the still-too-smegging-expensive price, and it's a big fat no-bet for me.

I'm not sure I like this move. Now I have to second-guess whether it's worth buying any game's DLC, in case it's later free with NSO.

Hoping that BOTW DLC comes into the Expansion Pack (or maybe Smash Bros!!!)

Very excited for this and will play the heck out of it.

Absolutely! I have always wanted to give it a try, but never pulled the trigger. Now that it's included in my membership, I'll download it and play it.

Nah I don’t own the game. But this poll does reinforce my opinion that this hardly does anything to boost switch online. Only 27% own splatoon and don’t have the dlc already. If they just put every dlc they have on there then this would increase the value of the expansion pack. But so far they are only catering to about 70,000 out of 100,000 switch owners and that is assuming there are no duplicates.( meaning people who own both splatoon 2 and Mario kart for example) which we know is not the case.

I already bought the DLC, but it’s a good addition to the expansion pass and I hope that more DLC gets added to it later

Couldn’t get into splatoon 2 for some reason, I absolutely adored the first one on Wii U though. I doubt I will boot the game up to check this out, but I suppose at least the option is there
