If you look at the credits between splatoon 2 and 3 you'll notice that nearly everyone credited as 'game designer' was replaced between games. Additionally looking up some of the new game designers will show that many of them haven't done an prior work on splatoon or any online nintendo game for that matter.

The dev team is essentially back to square one now that almost all of those on the team with power don't have the 7 years experience that came with developing splatoon 1 and 2. As time passes I'm sure they'll eventually start to grasp a better understanding of what should and shouldn't be done, but I'm becoming increasingly concerned that might not happen in splatoon 3's lifetime.

Honestly I just wish they could also add stuff in the middle of the season. It always gets so boring during that time. Maybe add like 2-3 new kits or something just to keep things interesting

I bet the Challenges are being held like the Splatoon 1 Testfire because the devs want to test the concept first before doing more with it and giving it proper time schedules.

[StarmenRock]

Yes. After that interview and what they said about the stages, it feels like the devs and producers have no clue what players want.

[EverGreenTaiga]

I just wanna say congrats on getting through High School. It's anything BUT easy, so you should be very proud of yourself for doing so!
It was Hell for me personally.

Mid season updates is a must need for this game especially for each season. Waiting for almost three months for a new season just to get like 2 weeks worth of content is not healthy for this game. Especially since we will only be getting 2 years worth of content and this game is almost a year old

[marcuscuscus]

It’s really strange because while most of the pvp updates have been underwhelming or bad, the majority of salmon run updates have been excellent additions. The future of that aspect of the game at least feels really bright, but I majorly wish they could output the same quality for the main modes of the game (I’m much more into pvp than sr)

[Masamune]

Honestly think the game needs to add mid season kits along the mid season updates to be more interesting.

[Cheeseblue]

This is the most relatable vid about the seasons I’ve ever seen. Most are over reactions.

[LogiCreates]

I think the worst part of the new updates is that as they continue to introduce more garbage kits into the game, playing with randoms is going to get even worse as more and more Lil’ Billies try to make these crappy kits work in X Rank. Matchmaking’s bad enough without the majority of the weapon kits in the game being terrible

I also grew up with splatoon in that same way you have (to the point that funnily enough I'm also graduating high school the day this video goes up) so I'm equally biased. But I wouldn't say the game is getting 'worse', i just dont think its getting a whole lot better. All the stuff I love about the game and series is still there but when it comes to adding to the game or trying to balance the game more, nintendo is fumbling. And when it comes to fixing the stuff that everybody and myself hate, I have very little faith in them.
Nothing I can say will beat the roller comparison you made; when it's good, it's uncomparably amazing. But when it's bad, it's absolutely miserable.
When they do add something good, they'll always add something bad to balance it

[RyanSumthn]

3:07 not only do the squid sisters not do the news in the inkopolis dlc, you get a strictly worse and janky looking animation for them if you beat the story mode lmao

also, netcode! WHY. according to nintendo, faster internet = more dcs apparently

[wolfc]

I just want a new tri-stringer kit.. that’s genuinely my main complaint with the new season, I just wish that there was a new tri-stringer kit, though even if they do give it a new kit, they’d probably give it something silly like trizooka and sprinkler because they seem to really like giving weapons sprinkler, and trizooka doesn’t compliment the weapon well at all, and seems to have the same range as the main weapon, and isn’t really helping it with any things the weapon needs..

[kidkytes]

I wish they would stop adding sprinkler to things and rework reefslider in some way. Let us turn it, or increase the damage for the longer distance we travel or heck make it like DVa's ultimate in Overwatch where we jump off it and it explodes. And just give the brand new weapons you introduced new varations please. The stringer is all over the promotional material yet we still have the 2 same ones that have been in since launch.

Congrats on gradutating high school btw!

[squiddler]

It's definitely getting "better, " but it feels like the game is getting better at a rate that's painfully slow. Like we get these features that look really cool like new weapons and modes, but it's only months later that those weapons are actually good enough to be usable or the mode gets some update that should've been there from the start. Big run was always cool, but the double scale rewards should've been a thing 6 months ago (and even then that doesn't fix the problem with fish scales, 2 times nothing is still nothing).

Challenges is probably the pinnacle of this idea: the potential of a mode like this is straight up the most exciting thing they could've done with this game, but for now it's obvious that the mode is going to be extremely limited and it's going to be months before it'll be consistently available to play.

[thebipedalsquid]

It makes me sad but it's great to see how basically the entirety of the community has come together with this opinion. Makes it feel like it's actually possible to see improvement you know? Also a lot less "just be grateful", and "ffs [X gameseries] fans are never happy!" comments.

[SpeedsterGT]

Translated by Google:
Matchmaking issues is one of the biggest problems that Splatoon 3 causes a lot because in both public and competitive matches you're going to have a very random and very inconsistent win-loss rotation because you may have 8 consecutive losses not because you're bad, it's just that matches you up with bad teammates. The worst thing is that the pairing has been like this since the first Splatfests started and it turns out that almost none of them could win.

[agentboi]

Bruh why are they afraid to make maps with alternate routes or good weapon kits(except blasters cuz i hate thoes)

[mang_p]

I've been watching since before "what your Splatoon 3 main weapon says about you" and I've enjoyed watching your video quality improve over time since then!

[AngelCakez]

Congrats on your graduation! And yeah, personally I feel like more kits mid-season and better map design would help improve the game in the long run
