People seem to misunderstand. Games getting future support isn’t bad on it’s own. The issue is Nintendo will put out games with minimal content or low replayability and update it later. Splatoon is a series that millions will play every month regardless. For starters, shops will refresh, and so will maps. There’s story mode, salmon run, and there’s the card game. And lockers are neat too. Other games with future support will have 1 maybe 2 half baked modes with one way to play, warranting less people to come back. Think of all the weapon, ability and special combinations to tackle different maps. People will be playing splatoon 3 because there’s depth to the modes. Should it have had at least 1 new ranked mode? Yeah. Is it a dealbreaker? No. Just because there’s future content planned doesn’t mean it’s bad or even comparable to the faults of say Nintendo Switch Sports, Mario Strikers Battle League or Mario Golf Super Rush. I’d say this is worth it.
