lmbo sorry your post was so bad i just assumed it came from reddit

my post is good, i'm just the only one tackling the real issues of why splatoon is geared towards the sexualization of female inklings as if we should avoid the topic of young squid sex. it's not like it's a problem in the world presented to us in splatoon so why is ti so taboo to people who adore the game? the game you love strives to make it popular!

Noirstronaut keeps "ironically" posting about wanting to gently caress inklings and this is okay because the mods think its funny (its not).

See, the funny thing about this is it's similar (though not exact, yes, I know) to saying that good ol' USofA doesn't have a set age of consent, since there isn't a Federal law about it. Clearly TLC's Toddlers & Tiaras was primarily aimed at sexualizing young children, and Authentic Entertainment had absolutely nothing to fear even though they're based in California which has 18 as it's age of consent.

Edit: Also, I love how there's never any mention of Mexico when this comes up...

idk why you guys so vehemently want to avid the topic of your squid girls being the ideal suitors for not only redditors but people worldwide. why do you think they wear small shorts and long tshirts? do you think squid kids really wear the same clothing as humans thousands of years after we die? fashion never changed? right, exactly. NINTENDO did this to YOU to make you view them as products of your affection. it's not a joke. it's real life. if you don't want to tackle the ideology of squid sex in a video game that parades over sexualized octopussies then i cannot help you. the fact of the matter is that squid girls are made to capture the hearts of people everywhere and it's not just stopping here. nintendo forced the fanart scene onto us and the n5 crew took advantage of it and this is the result. nintendo is cashing in on its longterm affects by putting gameplay aside and making it affectionate to showcase these girls on the tv in 1080p so you can imagine them as larger than life and if you use a projector, they can be real to you. you can get real close. it's not my fault that as the only one here who can recognize this, i'm taking advantage. let's be real for a change and not avoid the lust that is mutually shared by redditors for these squids.

So uh back to tactics chat:

CatsPajamas posted:

  • Remember X is a jump button! Jumping can get you a bit more range on your shots, which is especially useful for a Roller's flick. You can also jump over Seekers and Krakens. Also, many players jump around while firing - if you can adjust your aim faster than your opponent, this seems like a good tactic.

Be careful when you jump, because if you do it in sight of a competent charger or blaster user you WILL get splatted.

The Squiffer, having what I think is the shortest charge time, is more suited to this kind of snapshot than other chargers. But yeah, it's still awesome. Go chargers!

That's why I hate sniper type weapons in basically every game. It feels like whether or not you die has nothing to do with your own skill and entirely with the other player, since they are on the other side of the map. You can try and duck and jump and do all sorts of stuff to throw their aim off but ultimately if their aim is solid you're going to die and there's not really anything you can do about it other than avoid them completely. Fortunately most snipers are garbage so this is rarely a problem but playing against an expert sniper is one of the most consistently frustrating things for me across all shooters.

Jumping over Krakens or Rollers is a bit of a crapshoot if lag is an issue. Played against a roller with a Portuguese name and somehow got rolled over when I was nowhere near the bugger.

Oh yeah. Everyone should try playing as splat/dynamo roller with a download or something going at least once, seriously, to see the difference. While the latency thing is probably mostly a personal bugaboo for me I wish they'd do something about it (even just make it visible so I can shrug it off/be more impressed rather than second guessing).

Unless its seeing the Bloblobber in action, I don't think people care about reading a bunch of text about a weapon.

Its like walking up to a kid and tell him about a new Nerf gun instead of show that kid the TV commercial.
