Funny thing about Mr. Grizz’s is that his plan was hinted back before Splatoon 2 was even release during a Nintendo Direct back in 2017 where the infomercial for Salmon Run had the captions _“Want to change the world”_ , _“Creating a better future for tomorrow”_ and _“At Grizzco Industries, a brighter future awaits!”_
*His plan was staring us in the face for over 5 years.*
_(Spoilers for the secret alterna log, i guess)_
Another mindblowing thing was that there was a salmon run stage in Splat2 called "Ruins of Ark Polaris" which no one really cared about its background at first. *Then the postgame alterna log in the third game MENTIONS said Ark Polaris and how its related to Mr. Grizz, which would explain why its a salmon run stage in the first place*
THEY WERE PLANNING THIS ALL ALONG!
not to mention the new year’s art that was released for 2020, where the reflection in the water said “save our salmons”!! they’ve been hinting for so long!!!
He can’t beat luffy
Also, remember Octo Expansion ? Commander Tartar, the fucking phone ? When he meets Agent 8, he says :
*"Are you ready to join something bigger than yourself ?"*
That's 1:1 to Mr Grizz's line when he first recruits us for Salmon Run. Some players actually picked up on this back in the day, but no one could have guessed Grizz had a similar plan.

I’m honestly really glad that this story mode followed the octo expansion design philosophy instead of the previously maingames ones,it makes most of the levels really really fun!
it also removes the insane grind to do EVERY level with EVERY weapon from splatoon 2
@@screbulous I mean, you could just not do it though. and it actually gave you smth to do, some reward to get in the game. thats the only thing I want from the Splatoon 3 campaign, everything else was perfect
Yeah, but for me, It might have been a little TOO similar to Octo Expansion. It didn't feel like it did anything new with the idea, beyond the new weapons and such. It's still the best Hero Mode by far, but I do think I like Octo Expansion a bit more because of its novelty.
Plus, the leadup and climax of Octo Expansion is some of the best in any game ever, as far as I'm concerned.
@@McSandwich121 Agreed on that second part especially. The music and level design for the entire finale section of Octo Expansion was so good. This final boss was more "boss-like" but still not as hype for me.
@@NerdStrikesBack I only like the final boss for octo expansion as much as I do because of ebb and flow (octo). Sure the idea of a final boss as a turf war is really cool, Just the execution didn't feel that monuments. Maybe they could have made the ink permanent so they could add enemies without destroying the lore. If only man, either way octo expansion is my favorite campaign
The violent gasp at the realisation you can customise little buddy is giving real “just spotted a cat” energy
Add an "ooh kitty" and that's my reaction to any cat big or small
@@James.D.B. my way is to just say "cat" in a semi monotone voice and point at it
Petition to have a "Little Buddy" update, where you can use Smallfry as an actual subweapon in online play, and you could have more options for customizing Smallfry.

Ye, I just started playing and saw the "make it to the end in one piece" line and I was giggling through that entire level (also making comments about how my enemies won't be in one piece when I'm done and getting offended at every single "octoscum" or whatever variation on it cuz I play as an octoling (not an octarian, but octoscum? Really?)

I was playing the story mode, and literally said "i wonder when the levels will run out of ideas and just get boring" and then they just DIDN'T, and I was so happy that it was actually fun the entire time.

Can't forget "This could be Nintendo's best selling series" (this game turned out to be one of the best selling switch games of all time in Japan; with sales figures rivaling Pokemon)
my favorite part of splatoon is when your superiors are so ashamed of you failing a level that they call an air strike on their own position
Personally, I like to see it as God himself smiting us for our Playing Video Game Badly crimes

Splatoon 3: Fail a level; meet God

Honestly, really refreshing to hear that someone even prefers the story mode over multiplayer! Soooo many people just skip over it and as a big fan it hurts my heart a little ahah
The story mode was the first thing that I gravitated to and I 100% completed it (except doing every weapon in every level) in a few days, it was fun
The only thing I have left to do in story (including already having sub-3 minute’d every level) is the other two weapons in OneWayRideThroughTargetTown
100%ed the story mode the day i got the game ! (Including every level w every weapons + upgrade + after alterna)
Can't wait for side order to come out !
53:17 holy shit, you had .40 seconds left on the clock and it almost missed. Well done
If you told me in Splat3n you would ride a shark up a tornado into space to fight a bear with a salmon and a vacuum, I'd probably believe you because this series can get weird sometimes, but I'd still be surprised when it finally happened.
Correction: Alpharad played Splatoon 3 so that we could watch it and then be compelled to play it because it's so good
One small issue. I’m broke.😃
… you mean the one final boss of the first singleplayer campaign was enough to bar you from experiencing a whole multiplayer game 😭😭

"I played Splatoon 3, so you would want to"
"This could be Nintendo's best selling game if they really wanted it to be". Uhh....in Japan at least, it literally is on track for that title, so there you go. But I do agree with him, this series so fucking badly deserves so much more love than it gets here in the west. The artstyle,the aesthetic, the music, sound design, characters, character design, story, lore, gameplay, mechanics, just.....all of it is so, so God damn incredible, and unique, and has so much attention to detail, care, love, and genuine passion put into it by its developers. Splatoon has quickly become my favorite Nintendo franchise for very good reason, and I so badly want more people to feel the same way.
Gameplay especially. It’s so unique
15:23 "You either fight god or go to space." Bayonetta 1 you do both.

Really cool of them to add a multiplayer aspect to Little Buddy Simulator 3. I mean, I doubt anyone will play it since Little Buddy's not actually in there for some reason, but it's pretty cool.

1:06:35 The shear terror and sadness in his voice when he said that.
1:06:09 "Yeah, that's a-.. That's a booyah moment if I ever saw it"
Literally when you go back into Alterna after beating the game, you get a cutscene with the Squidbeak where the Captain Booyah's at you (and of course Callie did a hell of a "Booyah" just moments before this, I know xD)
Add THAT to all the other times Alpha was right about things happening later on, and just.. how?? o.o
I love his genuine joy at Lil Buddy. Lil Buddy is a treasure, and I'm glad he is being treated as such.

1:04:37 TRUE. MVP.
1:06:35 I don't know if I've ever heard Alpharad so concerned
adding a partener to the story mode is such an amazing idea
I spent the entire game avoiding hair death because I’m horrified by it. Of course I get the bad ending when fighting Grizz for the first time.
💀
This is unironically the happiest I've seen Jacob while playing a videogame in awhile
i love that "uh oh" at the end. like we all know that After Alterna is basically Champion's Road but for Splatoon 3

Just because everyone doesn't know, if you go under Cuttlefish's tent and click on the little notepad, you can make the New Captain look different, because the point is they're suppose to be your character from Splatoon 1.
*Holy shit i did NOT know of this at all-*
Wait you can what?
Also, if you have save data from Splatoon 2 Octo Expansion, the game will keep your design for Agent 3 so you don't have to change it again

the final battle of this game always gets me so hyped, no matter who i’m watching playing it like- octavio coming in clutch, deep cut and the squid sisters hyping you up, Lil Buddy becoming a Beeg buddy, and then your character, no matter what they look like, standing there on the battlefield with a determined expression….there is nothing that can top that moment when you stare into the eyes of Mr. Grizz knowing that this will be his last fight (i love this game sm-)

A fun thing to think about is that In Japan, Mr. Grizz is overly nice (cultural difference, bad/sketchy jobs tend to have bosses that mask themselves as overly nice or something) so his teddybear face probably matches mover there.
I don't know what Nintendo is on, but they've been making the end sequences of their games so hype in the Switch years. Octo Expansion, Breath of the Wild, Super Mario Odyssey, the new Kirby game, Metroid Dread, THIS GAME... Please keep doing these.

That spike was insane.
"They've had this boss in every Splatoon game but now we're just killing a woman."
Alpharad, 2022
And feeling good ...
The fear Alpharad has thinking little buddy was going to die is hilarious
"This could be Nintendo's best selling game if they want it to be." It was already the fastest selling new game release in Japanese history, setting a record in its first three days out. It beat out the previous fastest seller which was Pokémon black and white.

6:07 I love how he made the salmon run connection based on something that had technically been there way before salmon run, lol
I love how unfairly overpowered your little buddy is it’s hilarious 😂
And that's the version that ISN'T upgraded all the way, he two shots most enemies when he's fully upgraded. We love Little Buddy in this household!
@@InemuriOkami it’s funny he gigantamaxs and takes on a giant killer bear in space and is the reason why mr grizz didn’t destroy dj Octavio’s ship so without the buddy the main player would probably have died multiple times
That Manta Storm level is legit hype. That was one of my favorite boss fights from Sunshine, and hey, we've been saying since the first game that there should be some sort of crossover between SMS and Splatoon.
the levels you have to do:
the 4 crater levels(at 4)
dj octavio(at 5)
the 3 main bosses(at 8)
the 5 rocket escape levels(at 13)
both phases of mr grizz(at 14 or 15 depending on how you count it)
so, you need to beat 14-15 levels to beat splatoon 3. you can get power eggs from the level even if you don’t finish the level, so the first alterna level is actually optional
The Sunshine manta-ray actually jump-scared me lol, I was that dumb kid who loved sunshine sucked at it and was quickly gated from progression by the sand bird and manta-ray (I was also actually afraid of it, so that made it even harder to try to fight). So despite having played Sunshine many times since then, this video has confirmed that i still fear it deep inside
Therapist: Sunshine Ray boss isn't real, it can't hurt you
Big Man:
Here's a fun little detail: After you beat the story mode, the Radio at Grizzco turns from a bear eating a salmon into a big salmon eating a bear.
Also: I thought the "so you dont have to" titles are for bad games.
*trollface.gif*
fun story in the tutorial area of the story i happened to not notice the entrance to the second level and replayed the first level 8 times until i managed to get to the third level, thanks to you alpharad i finally found the second level
47:38 they even acknowledge that you did the pacifist route, nice
Alpharad casually predicting the final boss and how stuff is related in the very beginning
For the (at least) fifth time
He did not predict the last boss at all but eh close enough
honestly, I loved the fact that for the final fight they remixed the salmon run theme song and made it otherworldly! fits right in with the space fight and fighting against something also otherworldly, it reminds me a lot of the kirby and the forgotten land final boss
realizing that the salmon run theme wasn't the salmon run theme -- it was mr. grizz's theme >>>>
12:49
Alpharad : Honestly deep cut gives me team rocket vibes
me : HOW DID YOU KNOW?!?!!
“I think salmon run is related to the plot.”
The fact that he got that from a game mechanic that was around since before salmon run.
But everyone should play the story mode it's full of bangers and is easily some of the best gameplay ever
7:21 cant believe alpharad says the reason he is enjoying splatoon's idol music is due to a vocaloid phase and then proceeds to say his fav producer is Mitchie M. I have no idea how they sound the same, considering Mitchie is known for his realistic tuning and splatoon idols just be a gargled bop
id say they have pretty similar vibes though besides the vocals
ive been obsessed with vocaloid since around 4th grade and just the mention of vocaloid made me smile
fun fact: the splatoon vocals are done by actual singers, it's not vocaloid
@@e-lrd6904 vocaloids are sourced from actual singers too!
@@walnut_raisin2621 no i mean the actual gibberish that you hear in the songs is sung like that (minus voice filter) by actual people, they just sing the songs and then a voice filter is added

Going through a VOCALOID phase AND you appreciate the story mode? You just earned yourself a subscription bud 😎
Octavio NOT being the main antagonist of the installment, and actual stakes that has the world depend on the heroes is definitely the step in the right direction. But it feels like Nintendo scratched the surface for this one as much as the DLC did.
Not bad, it’s actually extraordinary for a story about friendships, music, and the mystery of life and I’d like to see more for S3’s DLC.

They always ask “who’s the imposter” but never “how’s the imposter”
A Splatoon lore video with Alphard as the narrator would go kinda hard
Grizz isn't a bad villian, but honestly I feel like they could have saved him for some sort of DLC. I also think it would've worked better if he was more closely tied to the humans, like if he was an AI made by the last scientist and... hey, wait a second.
I was honestly thinking the whole game that ORCA was just Splatoon Glados in disguise
You should read all of the alterna logs then! They give plenty of backstory for mr grizz that i think will satisfy you
@@grinklesnorf3475 I'd actually fully 100 percented the hero mode, including Shel-Drone, whenever I wrote this, and while my opinion has changed a bit since then, I still think Grizz fell a bit flat. From his build up that was a bit lacking, and the fact that the salmonids and golden eggs aren't really explained, I still don't hate Grizz, his main problem is just that he had to follow up Tartar's act and couldn't quite reach the bar he set.
"Its not that I hated that level, its just that my therapist will hear about it." Relatable
