I don't think I've ever been this hyped for a non-pokemon game before. Every time I'm reminded of Splatoon 2's existance I ache for the fact I don't have it yet. I loved everything about Splatoon, the maps, the concept, the online matches, the splatfests, the aesthetic, the characters, everything. I thought I was never going to get into shooters until Splatoon came along and let me experience the joys of mastering the Carbon Roller and owning people online with it.
The only thing it was missing was a decent variety of objectives and a somewhat more consistant longevity, especially in single-player mode. As well as some options to customise our inkling.
And Splatoon 2 so far looks like it's going to deliver in all of those fields. I can't wait to play this game...
