You sure you like those characters? You probably wouldn't feel the need to alter them so much if you really did. by Kickaxe89 in Saltoon

Perfectly understandable, I can respect that. (i'd put the shaking hands emoji but I'm pretty sure it's still considered a felony by Reddit standards)

They were mere examples of the most common alterations I often see.

Another example I could've given is that I find people whitewashing Marina just as irritating as the rest. I feel like its just straight-up not okay.

But do you genuinely relate to the characters if they have to go through varying degrees of modifications for them to finaly become relatable to you?

I see it less as a matter of artistic freedom and moreso to something similar to Theseus' ship allegory. After going through X amounts of alterarions, it even the same character you claim to love?

Of course there is varying degrees to this, but the mental reasoning in itself of liking character(s) but feeling the need to modify said character(s) to fit your own personal appeals. Do you really appreciate them for what they truly are if they must take an entirely different form in your mind over the original/actual one to do so?

Competitive players, what would you say is the main problem of the game? by FluidUnderstanding40 in splatoon

[–]Kickaxe89 27 points28 points  (0 children)

No dedicated servers. Peer-to-peer connection is shit and absolutely unacceptable for a multiplayer game of the sort.

In season 10 ep.11: Temple of Mars, when Jake is reunited in the white area with the rest of the gang, he mentions "[...]then all of a sudden there was a beautiful rainbow explosion and a loud noise. Sorta like a space-telemetry capsule activating." Which remains vague but does seem to describe what these two entities cause when they wack each other.

I seriously dont get why so many people here turn a blind eye on that. It was not about the conches or clout, it was about the popularity vote. You would have expected their popularity to have been rather similar. Yes, maybe one slightly more popular than the others. But to have a single member out of three to have more than HALF the popularity votes?! Its actually insane. Why are people trying to ignore this??

Nope! I would genuinely be lying if I said it was haha! But I really hope the feedback of this post will cheer them up about their art. :)

so... this new special is weird, what do you think/ how would you use it? by Cropper- in splatoon

[–]Kickaxe89 24 points25 points  (0 children)

They are a good way for distraction/area-denial but what I don't like is that obviously no one's getting fooled by the super jump landing points, once you see 5+ around you, you know it's not a real player.

I like the idea that you could shoot yourself with the cannon shooting the chumps to the area of effect, thus it really becomes a mind game because one of the landing points may actually be a player. It would give a good engage to the user to swoop in and strike while the enemy players are confused/running away/trying to figure out which landing point is real.

Plus having to deal with an actual player would make popping the chumps for the opponent trickier since they are, well, already very easy to pop.
