Splatoon 2

Has anyone played this game? It's not the kinda thing that I would normally think is the best game ever made, but it's the first new (3 year old) game that I've played that is so extremely fun.

Just played it for the first time yesterday.

Hahaha I have a switch and splatoon 2.. It's coo, those salmon run events are my favorite.. I like that PVE feeling.. Now I get distracted by that free app- Coloring book....

Yeah for me I just love the focus on making the game super fun, but not being a free to play piece of junk.

Not trying to get me to buy treasure chests or any stupid stuff.

The painting element means you can't really just lock down the game and be static, you have to move constantly and strategize where enemy will move. It's just a good game. I mean, I proabably have 3 hours in it but thats the longest continuous gaming I've done in at least a year, so its a big deal.

And there aren't any too obnoxious super-death cooldown management moves, which I am not a fan of. I mean people have specials but its o.k.

No item loot tho.

Also, the whole feel of the game is the same as jet set radio, a game I like very much. I dunno if they paid to totally steal that game setup?? but regardless its the only new thing nintendo has done in forever and I fully love it.

Yeah if you jump and attack you fling a fat glob of paint really far, I like that a lot too. It is just childish enough without being TOO childish. It hits me just right as a refreshing escape from shit like COD and battlefield and certainly like whatever those popular FPS games are that I don't like the vibe of.
