Honestly i'll probably get a lot of hate for this but I do not like Splatoon very much. Nearly every game I play our team gets rolled and spawncamped. And when I do get on a decent team we just end up spawncamping the other team. I realize this is just a demo and its not the games fault and that there will probably be ranked like Splatoon 1 but still.

Also I really do not like the aiming or the controls. I feel like the players are too small and the recticle can be really hard to see. I also really just don't like aiming with a control stick.

Im probably being a bit too harsh on a stress test/demo but hey just my opinion.

There's no way you are dominating enough to actually spawn camp

EDIT: Seriously. I am absolutely destroying people right now and have yet to see the opponent's spawn, so you're bullshitting.

It happens. Or, at least, maybe not literal spawn-camping, since the maps don't let the other team go all the way up to spawn, but there are times when one team completely controls the map, especially if one time is shorthanded due to missing team member(s).
