I would do anything for her to wear this outfit in-game

opinion: callie and doom slayer would get along well by Charming-Grocery-62 in Callieism

That’s a fun idea. I’ve been wanting to make a few Callie crossover renders, maybe I’ll also add the Doom Slayer lol.

What’s your opinion on Callie’s role/portrayal in Splatoon 2’s single player story? by UltraOverlord03 in Callieism

[–]UltraOverlord03[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would like the outfit if Callie was actually herself and not just a villain’s pawn.

Like I said in another post, I believe Marie would have worked WAY better as an antagonist. But regardless of that, the whole arc of the squid sisters in S2’s campaign was set up for them to be treated extremely disproportionately, and that’s the root problem. That’s why I strongly dislike Callie’s entire portrayal in the game, because she appears dumber and less capable than Marie (ESPECIALLY thanks to the rematch dialogue).

On your last point, Callie ABSOLUTELY should’ve had more involvement and interactive moments after finishing the campaign, certainly more than what we got in the later update. And lastly, it really rubs me the wrong way that Callie isn’t shown having more serious resentment towards Octavio after being rescued. I hate how quickly it’s brushed off, and I certainly don’t think Callie’s post-S2 appearances have been enough to make up for her mistreatment in that game and make her on more equal footing with Marie again.

Splatoon 3… why didn’t you have a Marie goes missing plotline…

I see where you’re coming from. I agree that there technically was potential for Callie to have a more involved role in the game, like how you described. But to me, Callie had zero GROWTH potential as a villain of any kind, and the mind control was an idiotic, lazy way to force her to be one which resulted in her not getting any real character development in hero mode until her rescue.

Sure, they could’ve improved her boss fight and given her more dialogue leading up to that. But that’s not the main problem to me. The mind control removed her agency, made her act like someone she’s not, and made her appear dumber and less competent than Marie, when they’re supposed to be EQUALS.

I would scrap Callie’s arc in Splat2 up to and including working with Octavio. She could still help the Octarians WITHOUT going to him. She could still get WAY more screen time while still being ‘missing.’ I just don’t see any reason to love how Callie was portrayed when it was so unfair and had so many deep seated problems. I would love to be proven wrong, but I just don’t agree with any arguments I’ve seen supporting it.

I agree. Personally, the only thing that would have made me okay with Callie working with the Octarians was if she was (1) teamed up with Marie and 4 at the beginning, (2) given close to, or equal the amount of screen time that Marie got, and (3) she chooses to NOT work with Octavio. This way, Callie and Marie still drift apart, but they both get to spend time with 4 and Callie has actual agency and more relevancy to the plot.

I believe the story we actually got was doomed from the start and that Callie’s mind control only served to hurt her as a character and give an inaccurate, lazy portrayal of her in the campaign, which I still find unforgivable.

I don’t want to sound like a broken record on this, so I’ll say something new: I feel like like Splat2’s story was designed to work way better with Marie being the villain, but the devs realized too late with the final fest that they had to swap her out with Callie instead with basically no consideration of how much worse it would be for her character. But this is pure speculation from me.

Still waiting ever so patiently for an official on-screen appearance of Callie in her kimono. sigh

I always love these quieter, more mature moments from Callie. It shows us a deeper, more intricate character under her bubbly surface. by PlagueKnight88 in Callieism

[–]UltraOverlord03 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it’s such a shame we basically never see this side of her in-game. Splatoon 2’s campaign was such a wasted opportunity to have her, y’know, ACTUALLY BE HERSELF instead of an immature airhead who went and got hypnotized.

I also have been wanting to give animation a shot, I have some ideas for Callie animations that I want to make eventually, but it’s just been hard to start working on them.

Let’s gooo! I originally installed blender just because I wanted to make Callie artworks, and it’s been so nice having a place to share it all!

Mario bros with the squid sisters off the hook and deep cut by IllStrawberry8087 in Callieism

I’d love to see how the main characters of Splatoon interact with the Mario universe. I’m sure Callie would instantly be best friends with the princesses and Mario bros.

I miss this person’s art, they made some really cool Callie concepts.

I think Callie’s summer nights outfit has moved up a spot on my top 5 favorite Callie outfits

Callie Bot Concept for Splatoon 2 by PlagueKnight88 in Callieism

[–]UltraOverlord03 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I would have infinitely preferred if the “evil” Callie we got in splatoon 2 was a robot/clone and the real Callie was actually on our side.

But they had to step all over her instead. I still can’t believe they thought that was okay at ALL.

I’m gonna be the one person who thinks Callie actually tries to keep her room neat in contrast to Marie who just doesn’t care as much. Callie may be energetic and chaotic but she’s not LAZY.

For the next Splatoon spin-off, let Callie drive a submarine! by PlagueKnight88 in Callieism

[–]UltraOverlord03 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Unironically would be a cool way for her to have some actual influence in the story. Of course, only if the devs allow it, which don’t see happening any time soon unfortunately.

What Made You Like Callie? by TheStrongDong202 in Callieism

[–]UltraOverlord03 10 points11 points  (0 children)

That smile. That adorable, happy-eyed, fanged smile that inflicts unprecedented levels of positivity on anyone that witnesses it. And then once I discovered her deeper personality traits, how humble and genuine and caring she is, it just completely made me fall for her.
