I was totally wrong about reviewers knocking off points for Nintendo's weird online apps. It appears the majority just did not care at all and didn't take that into account. I'm surprised, because honestly I probably would have.

Splatoon is the game a fuckton of people love and play but was doomed to get so-so reviews for a polished AAA Nintendo titles both times. First because lack of content at launch, and second because it was too similar to the first, despite having far expanded content than Splatoon 1 at launch. I wager if we never had Splatoon 1 and Splatoon 2 was the full package at launch for the Switch, it'd be a low 90s game akin to Overwatch and MK8D. For the appeal it draws its weird to think of it as a low 80s metacritic game, since I imagine this time around its going to sell like gangbusters even more so now that its on a console with an actual install base. Meanwhile expansion packs that are just more of the same poo poo for FF14 get in the 90s  Also why did MK8D get such good reviews for being a literal rehash with just an added battle mode and some very small unlock quality of life changes?

LethalGeek posted:See my previous comment about game reviews being utter useless idiot trash I mean it's why I don't listen to them, because they seriously baffle me. I only use a couple of people with similar tastes as me on games I know I'm not going to buy. So far most switch games have been known entities (Disgaea, MK8D, all the other billion nindie re-releases) or must buys (BotW) anyways so I haven't really bought any stinkers yet or needed reviews anyways. I liked ARMS after the test punch and liked Splatoon after the testfire, so I didn't need reviews to decide if I was buying them or not. Zelder posted:Have you played that battle mode? It's loving sick It's good but really the only reason I'm okay with Wii U re-releases is because I never owned a Wii U. Also down for 3ds re-releases too.

I assume most of them ignored it or forgot about it because it's so far outside of the "normal" ecosystem and I don't know how much Nintendo has really been advertising it.

Yeah but a lot of people didn't play Splatoon either. Maybe it's just because it's an actual sequel and not a port that it is getting slightly more flak, who knows. Back to the game, can I play with a friend in turf wars? C-SPAN Caller fucked around with this message at 03:26 on Jul 19, 2017 |

To be fair talking on the phone makes sense, and as long as the application doesn't use the mic it SHOULD be able to continue the voice connection. Discord does it just fine so even if that's not the way it currently works they could certainly change it once people complain.

Of course it makes sense that you can't voice chat on something else or call someone at the same time but that's really lame and makes the app pretty worthless if you get disconnected if you just leave it to replay to a text or something.
