If you can play online and do Salmon Run too yes. If not no. Salmon Run is a coop player vs enemy mode a very good one at that. So if you dislike player vs player modes then theres also that mode to play.
On the handheld they are a real pain since you have to keep tilting and moving your head to follow the action on screen.
All I know is as a non motion control player all I get is wins.
No, it just means you're dead inside.

Just beat a team with over 80% of the map inked by my team. I think the other team all just rage quit at the end lol

It's entertaining reading people new to Splatoon in this thread, still coming to grips with motion controls being the best option.
You'll come around eventually

I need motion to be super sensitive to minimize the amout of movement I make. I have it on 4 or 5.

The Jet and Dual Squelchers are in this game right? They're my favorite weapons in the original.
Jet Squelcher is in with looks to be an annoying kit, but Dual Squelcher might be gone...
I was supplied a Jet Squelcher in Salmon Run last night, do I'd imagine

It seems like it takes a long time to level up. Especially just to get to 4. Hopefully that doesn't turn people off

In Turf War? I'm pretty sure it only took me about 6 matches, and those weren't even all wins.
Maybe when docked. It's terrible in handheld mode because not only are you moving your viewing screen, but there doesn't seem to be a way to reorient. If you sit in a recliner or try to play in bed, lol, good luck.
Each to his own. But I don't know how much ya'll are moving things. I don't have any problems motion in handheld....
Or got disconnected through no fault of there own.

Would I have any problems or missing out on stuff like rewards or later downloads/bonuses if I buy this in the South African eshop instead of my default German one?
Once or twice? Ok. But if multiple times then you need to sort out your shit without making the game terrible for the rest of us.
No it's the EU version, no difference at all.
I've bought all my games this way. It's actually better than buying from the US in that respect, as you're technically buying a different region game, even though the switch is region free.
There's no negatives to doing it as you're getting it cheaper, and you're left with an EU version, same as you would if you bought from your countries own eShop.
Wait till you try to go from 49 to 50... Though you level-up a bit faster in ranked if you win (slower if you lose).
Also, remember that you get a boost if you're doing good (+3000 if you reach 5, +4500 if you reach 10, etc. I guess that like Splatoon 1, you can get this bonus daily)
I believe that a win is +1 and a loss is -0.5, -1 or -1.5 if you're below 5 / between 5 and 10 / over 10, but take this with salt, I haven't checked.
Yes, and there isn't much. Just two short levels.

There's just two parts in training. It's helpful to know before going in.
That reorients horizontally, not vertically I don't think.
There's a basics course and then a course that runs you through several bosses. The boss one is important because each one has to be taken down in a different manner.

Wait, if you unlock the hero weapons for multiplayer by beating every level with them does that mean the umbrella weapon can already be used online if you beat every level in the single player with the hero version? or does it just say that you'll get the weapon later?
Not enough. There are some events that are too complex for players to figure out on the fly. I'm playing randoms and every time the Goldie Seeking event comes up my teams time out cuz nobody else read the job manual.
If i remember correctly someone from gamexplain tried to beat every level with the brella and nothing happened.

That's not true at all.
Ok, maybe I need to go back and try, then. The first night I tried playing in bed and I had to sit up. I hope I'm wrong, then i can use motion controls.
edit: I guess i was wrong. It's still a little awkward tilting the screen you are viewing, but I will give it a go.

Are you holding the switch upside down? I heard ppl complaining about that.

Thank you! Would I have to set up a throwaway account (but still use it/own it on my main one) or can I somehow log into other countries' stores with my main account?
Yes, the first night I was laying down with the switch held above my head. Maybe that's why I thought it didn't work? It works in a recliner now so gonna check it out in some games later.
I play at 1.5 stick and 3 motion it will vary for everyone though for sure
My settings are pretty dead set for me though

Got it today and I'm having an absolute blast! This game is genuinely fun to play. Lots of cool little details, nice music and well, good controls even.Thanks. I just took the leap and ordered my copy
I struggled with the gyro controls in handheld mode though, especially the lack of horizontal adjustment controls using the stick, so I'm playing without motion controls now. They should get a patch that includes this, just like BotW's aiming controls.

"Surfing in Oktopark" in the second world of the SP is such a ridiculously great level.

Tower Control.
The other team only had 3 people.
My team flies off into another galaxy.
The 3 man team takes the Tower all the way to the end without any resistance.
It's physically painful playing with some of these people. 😵

I finished like three games today out of ~20. It's bad.
People need to learn to HOLD R and aim the shot. It's really easy to lob one in.
That said, I've had some sick ass long distance blind shots I wish I had video of
