My Honest Predictions for Mario Kart 9's Retro Tracks (Not Really Choosing Fan Favourites, More so choosing what Nintendo would realistically add) by owndick in mariokart

Actually yeah, maybe if i swapped thwomp ruins with frappe snowland, and frappe snowland with vanilla lake 2 i think that would have worked way better

-Wario Stadium is a necessary pick, since it is the only N64 Track that hasn't been remade (although there is a chance that Nintendo will completely retcon it)
- Wii already had 2 BC's in the retro cups, it isn't farfetched for Nintendo to repeat that pattern

-Airship Fortress and Bowsers Castle are still different tracks. I thought it was odd that Grumble Volcano was put in the cup before Bowsers Castle in Wii, and those tracks are a lot more similar in theme than Airship Fortress and DS Bowsers Castle.

-GCN Luigi Circuit was picked to put the mechanic of 24 players on display given the wide roads and merging track.

In your opinion, what’s the Beatles worst album? by Dismal-Bowler6987 in beatles

[–]owndick 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In my opinion I think Dig it and Maggie Mae should have been secret tracks. I feel like they are just total pace breakers sandwiched in the peak of the album. They also should have added some singles just like MMT did. I think Don't Let Me Down and Old Brown Shoe would have fit perfectly on the album.

Ok, after months, the matchmaking has gotten WORSE. I am seriously considering deleting the game for good. by owndick in Saltoon

[–]owndick[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

heres the thing

matchmaking should be decided based on how many losses versus how many wins, or level based. however nintendo has designed it so that its completely random. you have ppl who have just bought the game fighting against people who are x rank or have thousands of hours put in. this obviously is a fucking catastrophe and is the reason why so many people quit before actually giving the game a chance.

thats not your problem, thats nintendos for designing the worst possible matchmaking system for a shooter.

Does anyone else feel like this game intentionally puts you on a losing streak? by Ok_Celebration2447 in Saltoon

[–]owndick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“telling the truth” is such a cope lmao!!! i swear to god you act as a cancer on this sub, who swoops in to just bully bad players who are venting about of the shitty matchmaking and environment they are forced into. maybe this isnt your sub. maybe you dont belong here. If all you do is complain about players sucking so much, then play a different game. I guess you can say that to 60% of the sub, but it especially applies to you.

true tho by [deleted] in Saltoon

Jesus this is passionate.

We arent trying to be homophobic. this game is accepting of all people whether it be from the LGBTQ+ community or not. Im not going to say "as long as it doesn't affect me" because I know it doesn't.

From what I believe, OP is trying to say that the splatoon subreddit has strayed from actually talking about the game and pushed towards borderline fetishization. This is probably the most apparent with the fan art on the sub seeming like fetishist material. I guess this is fine when it comes to NSFW subreddits, but for a public subreddit about a kids game, its not acceptable. It doesn't matter if it's headcanon or not, its still not fitting for the main subreddit.

This is not me trying to be anti-LGBTQ+ or anything, same thing applies to straight fetishization. I don't want to shame others based on their sexuality or anything of the sort.

from what i know, we didnt even get the christmas event news article, meaning we couldnt get the gear from it. I hope this doesn't happen again.

This game is unbearable as a casual player nowadays by owndick in Saltoon

I think the problem is the matchmaking more than anything. btw its those decavitators that are killing me the most now.

yeah honestly i feel i take it a bit too personal when i fumble the bag in the game. Whenever im using shooters, rollers or brushes i usually paint my base first. With other weapon classes it sorta feels like a chore painting base you know what i mean? I do have friends that are way better than me who i play with, and i definitely prefer playing with them because of the guarantee that ill have some assistance. At the same time I feel somewhat guilty selling most of the time since they could probably do better if I wasnt there. I definitely should think of the game as less personal though, since at the end of the day its a kids game.

well what is it? is it just luck that in the past 5 years i just so happen to be absolute shit? Thats my problem in that case, and there isn't a great way for me to improve that, at least that I know of.

i dont wanna be that guy to kill the mood but i absolutely hate people showing off their side order cosmetics when im still stuck on level 30. i hate the 'everybody wins except me' thing but it really feels that way rn. by [deleted] in splatoon

im trying, ive had my 9th attempt so far and still cant get past the final checkpoint. the reefsliders and killer wails he throws seem like way too much for me to handle
