I miss the maps a lot. They were so different from one another and had a lot of personality. Same with splatoon one. The maps were easy to tell apart from a single picture. Splatoon 3? Not so much. They’re all the same in terms of height, general size, etc. I don’t miss moray towers. But i miss the idea of it. A map thats significantly taller than the rest with lots of levels and routes to take. Since they made flounder heights shorter, i doubt they’ll ever try and make a map like that again. Or the reef with it’s two over lapping levels? Eeltail alley tries to mimic it, but fails miserably. Secondly, the maps in splatoon, at least the more city themed ones, do wonderfully when it comes to feeling like real environments. But splatoon 3? They just kind of feel like random areas. How are we supposed to know scorched gorge is a national park? In splatoon 2, i always knew i was in the city and i liked it! I miss the maps
