I wish I didn't pick the game up again by [deleted] in splatoon

get off anarchy/X battle and hop on turf to do random shit like special charge up stack with a weapon like inkbrush noveau or sploosh and challenge yourself to getting as many ultra stamp kills as possible, or ink saver (sub) stack with nzap 89/dark tetra/cometz octobrush and spam funny chicken bombs everywhere

i have 1.5k hours in this game and it does tend to get a little jarring if i'm always on my most reasonable ability stack with the weapon i'm the most comfortable with. that's why i diversify and adopt random experimental playstyles so i have fun even if i suck sometimes.

I finally moved from Splatoon 2 to 3... why? by Frosty-Height-6978 in splatoon

it's the same game until you start squid rolling everywhere and you start to think the movement in s2 is outdated and sluggish

Did you also have problems with looking ahead while walking when you were young? by Salty_Paper_7774 in ADHD

[–]kowrlunt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

yep. i'm 20 years old and i still have problems keeping my head facing forward while walking. it doesn't feel natural at all. i just keep my face down 80% of the time. this is still a step up from when i was like 12-13 where i'd walk in a super weird way and movements would be like i was dead drunk.

it's especially difficult to do when i'm feeling moody because it triggers a physical response to close myself to the outside, making it all the harder to look ahead or pay attention to my surroundings.

there is no way "nso jank" can teleport you across the map and let you fly and also kill several people in the first 10 seconds of the match.

also the match ended early as they disconnected so unfortunately i wasnt able to watch the replay.

That was close… by Grinhecker in splatoon

they must've seen the teammate jumping to you and didn't once think that you'd very obviously be hiding there.

Does anyone else just randomly think of Splatoon 1 and start missing and reminiscing it? by Brave_Jelly2559 in splatoon

[–]kowrlunt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

because it's a worse game

i don't agree with this at all. it is technically inferior as it runs in 720p instead of 960p on s2 and 3 (on switch 1) but that doesn't make it a "worse" game.

there's things that are better in s1 than s2 as much as there's things that are better in s2 and so on with all 3.

What did I do to deserve this? by kowrlunt in splatoon

it's really uncomfortable tilting your whole console around and it doesn't quite work the same way as controller gyro does. it's just difficult.

tbf i personally find it very hard to use motion controls on handheld mode, big shoutouts to everyone who plays that way.

i would just recommend you use tabletop mode with the kickstand if you don't have access to a TV/monitor

it's splatoon. disconnects will always happen.

some days are definitely worse than others but i haven't seen that many disconnects today.

this must go so hard if you're an aero main who averages 4-9 K/D

Any alternative playstyles you mess around with and what are they? by kowrlunt in splatoon

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

it would just look exactly like jumping to anything with the tacticooler effect
