At least we know Pearl got to where she is by pure talent, instead of just coasting on manufactured popularity like Marie

Great news. The 2 Testfire was still in 720p.

I'm so happy graffiti is back. It was one of my favorite aspects of the first game.

If there's anything more important than my ego around, I want it caught and shot now.
I was always pretty split 50/50 on Callie and Marie

but I'm not a big fan of Pearl's look so I'm 100% team Marina

They begin again

So this is going to be 1080p/60fps then? That's sick as heck.

I don't think Pearl looks bad, and I like that she appears to have a different type of personality, more brash, compared to Callie or Marie. It's just that she looks worse than she is when compared to Marina.

The tips of her fingers having the ink colour is such a neat little touch, like fancy fluorescent nail polish. Pearl doesn't seem to have em so seems it's an octarian specific thing.

I was holding out for a splatoon+switch bundle (Come on, eb games!! :argh: ) but I'm tempted to just eat the full price and get a switch soon for that splatfest. Gotta fight for Team Cake on my honor as a baker!

Oh neat Crust Sean has a drinks menu that changes the odds of receiving specific abilities when your gear levels up.

Edit: Aw amiibos aren't implemented in the demo. :(

I'm serious. It only gives me the options to post to Twitter and Facebook. Where's the button to post only to the game.

Figured it out. You can draw posts at the red mail box between Sheldon's and Flow's.

Bongo Bill
Jan 17, 2012

I can draw them, but I can't post them. When I press the post button, it gives me options to post to Twitter (I don't want to do that) and to Facebook (I don't want to do that). If I back out of that screen, it says Post Canceled.

The in-game help menu has nothing about how to actually submit the post without using social media.

I know it's doing something because every time I try to post, it saves a copy of it in my Switch album, but if it's going anywhere else, it isn't telling me about it.

Just make a facebook account exclusively for Wii U shitposting. That's what I did.

I'm extremely glad that they put graffiti in the game. The death of the Miiverse is still a tragedy but this soothes the pain.

I'm going to miss the first Splatfest because I'm not getting this game until a week after release (because that's when the bday money comes in and I am a poor who can't afford to buy anything other than food rn). :(

But let it be known that Team Ice Cream is the superior choice, both because of the dish and because Marina. :colbert:

I work during most of the splatfest, but I should be able to get home in time to play at least one round.

I wish the demo had a practice mode so I can learn to roll with the dualies and what not.

i have no idea, i don't know at all if Fresh!-ing a post does anything

i'm leaning towards "it does nothing" but i don't care

even if it doesn't do anything i'm so happy it's there

I'm going team cake because that's what my heart tells me, and Pearl seems like a better character during the one intro they do have when you run the demo.
Also she glares at you real bad when she notices you spookin:



The other one might be cuter but she really does seem like the Pinky to Pearl's Brain.
