Is all the lower level stuff just from splatoon 1? I recognize these weapons you guys are mentioning. What % of the arsenal is from the first game?

If there's anything more important than my ego around, I want it caught and shot now.

Kelp Plankton posted:

Oh that's way smaller than I expected. Is that normal for Switch games? I'm used to everything being like 20-60gb

Nintendo games are generally much smaller than other game companies games, partially because nintendo consoles don't have harddrives but also because Nintendo favors stylized graphics over photorealism.

Zelda was huge for a Nintendo game and it was only like 8GB. Mario Kart is like, what, 5GB?

The thing is games size is pretty much entirely just textures and animations. Game code takes up kilobytes to a couple megabytes total, even for the biggest games. So it really comes down to how many textures your game has. (And how compressed they are / how high resolution)

I think we have been waiting to hear from any of the people who got the game early what they do, not a reviewer.

Mother Earth is pregnant for the third time
For y'all have knocked her up
I have tasted the maggots in the mind of the universe
I was not offended
For I knew I had to rise above it all
Or drown in my own shit
my birthday is literally july 21st and i could not have asked for a better gift than splatoon 2 releasing on the same day

I don't see nothing right now so I guess we're stuck waiting until release, which is very Nintendo.

3GB will download fast though. No biggie.
