If this game doesn't end up at 92+ on Metacritic then I will drink a gallon of ink.

Ice Cream discussing their win with only a 51% solo win percentage but 75% of the base is some GOP level poo poo.

I mean having more people doesn't make your playerbase inherently better. In fact you should be seeing around a 50 50 split in each splatfest, unless there was something that tended to divide the teams into younger/less skilled players versus older/more skilled players. Perhaps "fidget spinners" vs "getting those dang kids off my lawn"

I took tons of pictures of Pearl but my PC corrupted the microsd somehow EB Games has a whole lot of Splatoon garbage including the Pearl cap from the game cover https://ebgames.com.au/loot-231911-Splatoon-2---Inkling-Trucker-Hat-Loot

The battle results are always going to be fairly close to 50/50. The overall result is basically the vote plus two coinflips.

They completely changed Marina's AND Pearl's personality. I am not happy with it honestly. Pearl in jp is much more awesome, cute, more feminine and peppy in a positive way than the english bratty one we're getting.(probably why we're getting shittons of fanart from the jp side...) And Pearl is awesome for accepting Marina, who is an Octoling which are like sworn enemies of Inklings. Girl is open minded. Marina is actually polite, shy, and an endearing ditz genius instead of rude. She often forgets stuff and is very scatterbrained and adorable. If anything I'd say she's kinda moe in personality in a sexy DJ appearance. What the hell happened?! And they totally missed out on the senpai kouhai dynamic the two has in jp version, Pearl actually seems like she was, leading Marina and showing her the ropes. TLDR; Yes, I am very salty about the personality changes. Edit: To clarify, I can read japanese and played both jp and US splatfests.

LPG Giant posted:Today I learned that squids (inklings) are different from octopi (octolings). In Splat 1 the squid-kids were the protagonists and did battle with the octopi; among the bad guy octopi there were some which are flat out evil octopuses who are kinda dumb but big, and then there's little octolings which are very analogous to the inklings in that they're bipedal and humanoid and can switch between octo form and octo-human form. The octopus octopi could not transform to a human-like state, only the octolings. You battled the octolings and the big octopi both and they were all bad, and we were only inklings. This may change, as Callie and Marie were both inklings; however Pearl is an inkling but Marina is an octoling!! This is A Big Deal. Marina seems chill af and not a bad person in any way. deadly_pudding posted:In Japan, the Octoling soldiers were called Octozons (Takozoness - Tako + Amazoness), because they're all women This is super cool.

Zelder posted:They completely changed Marina's AND Pearl's personality. I am not happy with it honestly. I'm sorry your senpai kouhai dynamic doesn't hold up in English, but I"m not getting any of that bullshit and I've only played the English version? Perl just looks bratty, that's a natural first impression based on her design, which is irrespective of language unless you think they re-modeled and re-animated her? Everything Perl says seems fine to me. That style just doesn't appeal as much in the West as it does in the East. Stuff like Chibi and Babymetal are bigger over there afaik. Over here most teenagers are trying to act super grown up, not the other way around. And Marina does seem like an endering ditz in US? What? "sexy DJ appearance" lmao what the gently caress

Marina's smile looks nervous at times and if the idea is that she's skilled but not really used to being in the public eye that makes perfect sense and fits her well. From Pearl's dialogue in the Splatfest she seemed nice and full of a fun energy. I think both characters will be great in the full game. My biggest complaint with them is that I feel like their catchphrase is a bit of a mouthful. "Stay fresh!" is both easy to remember and say.

Zelder posted:TLDR; Yes, I am very salty about the personality changes. I think that this is a valid concern, because so far they come off like a rehashed Callie and Marie. I don't think that the senpai dynamic will be easily understandable to an English audience, but I am hoping that the character voices become more unique as they get more dialogue.

But "stay off the hook!" is great. It implies that they wish you to stay cool and also not get caught by a fisherman.

I do think there's a bit of a valid concern in them just being Callie and Marie 2.0 in the localization, but  at that quote.

marina definitely felt a lot meaner spirited in the western version especially since pearl didn't really retort back to a lot of her jabs which made it a bit awkward. hopefully it's just treehouse doing memes again because there wasn't a lot of time to properly translate poo poo.

Them being callie and Marie part 2 wouldn't be the worst thing ever because this time they're actually on a system that people will purchase. And I say that as someone who loved his wii u

There are a lot of powerful segments in that post but the standout winner has to be "If anything I'd say she's kinda moe in personality in a sexy DJ appearance. "
