Splatoon

I remain Amiiboless, but yeah, that'd be cool. I'd take a Shulk or Olimar outfit.

An Inkling cosplaying as Fox, Or Sonic?

Count me in!

Obviously Game Freak hates amiibo so my Pikachu is worthless.

Also I'm so going to fall off B+ soon, losing streaks yaaay

You can power through eventually. Just believe in yourself.

Well I kept going up and down but eventually down so I'm at B+ 14 right now.

I wasn't really doing my best today so eh.

God my run in rank was fucking pathetic. So much for my S rank. I won't deny I did some stupid stuff, but for the love of Cthulhu, my teammates either could not break the enemy team or they would not support me when I had the rainmaker. Oh and something truly bullshit happened. I died and went to spawn, nothing unusual there. But then I died again while on my spawn and the kicker? The death screen said I had let the rainmaker explode complete with enemy ink everywhere. What. The. Fuck?!

... wow. You got lagged into the deepest kinda horseshit. That sucks so bad. Like, really, the netcode in this game is truly idiotic sometimes. I'm sorry, friend. :/

Well, I just found out something really interesting from Judd.

Apparently the light at the top of the ink tank on your back indicates if you have enough ink for your sub-weapon.

... really? I'll be damned. That's good to keep in mind too.

I am really, genuinely impressed that they make Judd's tips actually really useful, often about a lot of little, minor, obscure details. That kind of advice is so often just patronizing, obvious-ass shit in games, after all, but they really did a good job with him!

so that's what that's for.

Took me quite a while to figure that one out. Also, there's a little sound effect that plays when you have enough ink for your sub. Useful to keep an ear on that while squidding around the area.

Guess who managed to snag two splatoon amiibo three packs?

it's me! Hell yeah!!

Spy-checking a thing in splatoon? We Squid Fortress now

Ugh, that happens to me in Tower Control all the time. There's so much paint being thrown around that I don't know who's on what team except by what my shots do to them.

EDIT: And you thought Marie was sassy in the NOA translation.

*slow clap*

If anyone but Marie said that, Callie would be in tears.

Are we sure Marie actually likes Callie?

They seem to chat pretty happily together on their offtime in the studio over the cafe, at least.

Yeah, I have a sister and we do worse stuff to eachother a lot. And (I'm pretty sure) we both like eachother!

Yeah, that sass just feels like friendly sisterly (cousinly) hot air.

In actuality Marie really hates Callie and she uses her sass to snipe Callie whenever she can.

So I just got Splatoon. Mostly been power through the Single Player campaign first to get a handle for the controls. The boss battles are surprisingly really good.

The last boss is frankly astounding and well-worth the effort it takes to get to him.

That all of the bosses drop scrolls containing info for Sheldon to make multiplayer weapons out of helps, too.

People tend to over-exaggerate Marie's snark, even in the American version. She does have her moments, but there are plenty of conversations where she's pretty chill. It's just that the sassy ones are funnier.

Yeah, the final boss is really good. Have you done any of the multiplayer stuff yet?

Hero Roller GET :D

Next up, Squid Amiibo missions. Those Limited Ink missions really test your skill and patience.

Played with the Mini Splatling a bit, it really benefits from Walk Speed Up (better strafe-walk speed). Less range, but Squiffer/Bamboozler tier fast charging makes it an interesting departure from the Heavy Splatling.

If Heavy Splatling is called Splasha, then I shall call my Mini Splatling Tatiana.
