Are you ready to genocide salmon and plunder all of their treasures, alongside your your treasure-hunting wives?
>>742338952This game looks so gay, I hate seeing Nintendo fall for modern trends>muh raids>muh runs>muh gear>muh customizationTotal roguelike slop death
I still hope there will be salmolings at the bottom of the dungeons. Crazy, bloodthirsty things that wish to eat the surface dwellers.
>>742338952>plunder treasure
>>742339591It's not a roguelite game though. The world isn't randomized and your progress isn't reset upon death/success.
>>742339591>roguelikeCongrats, you’re as retarded as IGN
>>742339591it's a looter shooter, not a roguelike
>>742339602I wonder how deep the deepest dungeons will go.
>>742338952Sadly I can't woomy with you guys as soon the game drops, I decided to get Relink first. Will get Raiders on my next credit card period.
>>742342218>I decided to get Relink firstDo I need real friends to have fun with this game or can you play it alone or with randos and still have a respectable experience?
>>742338952
>>742338952Are there treasure hunting husbands for female players?
>>742338952I'm always ready for Salmon murder.
>>742341974
>>742341974there's probably some pit of 100 trials-esque dungeon for the postgame.
>>742342439You can do well with randoms.
>>742342656You get Big Man.
22 days bros I can't fucking wait
>robot jump>hover>double jump>air dash>horizontal splashdown>zipcasterI really hope the level design takes advantage of all these new movement options because this is shaping up to be bananza level in terms of traversal
>>742344404Instructions not understood please enjoy Tetris shapes.
>>742344638u r mr faggot
>>742344276Things like this are what they mean when they say games naturally pander to males. First male idol in the series and instead of an attractive human-like character he's a giant meme monster. No eye candy for the ladies.
>>742344404We saw some uses for them in the level deisgn already so they'll definetely be important and fun to use, I expects dungeons specificaly to have interesting level design with them since they'll be able to force you to use certain gadgets
The reception to the Raiders direct seems to have been really positive. Looks like it won over a lot of people who were on the fence, doomers here not withstanding (they’re not people)
>>742345616The way you can see the eyes still is pretty cute.
>>742345616doomers were btfo big time
>>742342592>"We're all salty down here."Don't worry, I'm sure a shared bath with Shiver and Frye will clear that right up.
>>742342656>>742344768Don't worry, we'll get Femboy Idols at some point.
>>742345616All yhe reviews from playtesters are also excellent yeah, the only worry I have atp is how long thr game is but even them i feel like it's highly replayable
>>742342592Breeding with salmonids is not a good idea...
>>742345616Yeah my only worry was a potential lack of content but I’m not worried any longer.
>>742347927Even if it is on the short side more levels/content seems like something that could come out after release. Especially given cause that's like how every Splatoon game has operated thus far. Don't think Raiders being a single player game will exempt it from that.
I don't really watch Splatoon Youtubers, who has the best preview video so far?
>>742348676Famitsu
>>742348741But theirs is in Japanese?
>>742347665sex with inkling boys
I hope gadgets return as a random part of the loadout in a potential Salmon Run Next Next Wave. Would increase the variety and frantic play even more, and the Switch 2 thankfully shouldn’t melt because of itThis movement looks so funhttps://x.com/splatoonjp/status/2072244067245908180
All i want is for my inkling to cuck me, and it's fine if it's with salmonids
>>742349147and has no commentary
>>742349714That is the big question in the background, what carries over from Raiders into Splatoon 4's Salmon Run mode.I'm curious if they'd let us pick a Tank or we'd get one at random.
>>742350086This is 11/10. This needed to exist and I didn't even realize it until now.
>>742348676I only watched wadsm's vid, he likes it despite not being a fan of splatoon singleplayer content, he focuses on the new movement options as a huge positive and also mentions how even if he only played 2 hours the game got pretty challenging even on normal difficulty
>>742350473>not being a fan of splatoon singleplayer contentDisgusting type of people
>>742350350/v/ Splatoon threads are the best, just for the posted fanart alone.Also, Nintendo, please. The Left and Right D-pad exist, they're desperately waiting for something to do.
>>742339752>Yaaaar, I be claiming that booty
>>742350612well he's a compfag
>>742350612>>742350473People who have abandoned all Single-player gaming content?My God, what sick bastard would choose to live like that?
>>742350612that never was the main focus of the previous games, so...i do liked them though
How can one Mechanic build up so much rizz so quickly?
>>742350258At the very least I'd expect Seasoned Salmonids to port over as special wave bosses. They may have even been testing the idea with the unused alternate mode that gave Salmonids increased health but dropped big gold eggs worth three.Come to think of it the unused Splatoon 3 Salmonid in the game files under the code named ghost probably got repurposed into the Smoker, even has the gas attack...
I hope one of the Mythic salmon is just a absolute beast of a chum, with an arsenal of cooking weaponry strapped to him
>>742351567is that supposed to be a girl in the manga too? I'm making the mechanic a boy for sweaty sex sessions with shiver and frye
>>742352278Yesall three of them are slamonids breeding ground
>>742352594Dagasi is definitely going to draw another Splatoon set, at some point.
>>742353175tummy sexo.also, needs bikini outfit
>>742353175Well, since apparently everyone just HATES the Gloopsuit, I'll go with the outfit on the far right.I'm sad none of the customization options we're seen so far have Glasses.
Frye fanatics are eating well for Raiders
My woomy throwing gamesso she's demoted to post-shift stress relief!Yes I play pink slopsuit
>>742353393i don't think it's that they hate it, but that they are the only options you can have in salmon run.i wish i could just pick my stuff i bought for PvP mode and use it in that mode instead
>>742351686Did Smallfry become a Mythic Class Salmonid, or was this something different still?
>>742353621
Seems like there clothes are split into speed/power/technique variants for each set. I better not catch any of you fags running mismatched shit like a power ink tank with a speed outfit.
>>742353635You know what? I take back what I said, I'm glad the Pink Gloopsuits are gone.
>>742354665It's only the first three that are themed around the tanks iirc
>>742354665I love the Technical Outfit.
>>742354726I'll miss themhttps://files.catbox.moe/88ug1m.jpg
>>742353175Cute space buns
>>742354937Why is she black?
>>742355016Concord reference
>>742355016only blacks can have space buns, silly
Who had the better costume?
>>742356064>all braswhy are they so erotics?
>>742356064this looks pretty gay, ngl
Here are the 15 gadgets. Which are you favorites for each class?
>>742356064Is the first one a girl? Why are all hairstyle not feminine?
>>742356287Short hair to not get in the way of the outfit showcase. >>742356267Flying axe kick with the boot is hard to top.
>>742356064These are all kinda mid, to be honest.
>>742356267Shot Pot is my new best friend.
>>742356064definitely Frye's for me
>>742356064basically the same lame costume with color variations. feel sorry for amiibo fags
>>742356267Erecting a dispenser.
>>742356287if you can't even tell what gender your characters are, then you did a terrible job as character designer.
>>742357243It's basically an altered version of your helicopter pilot suit based on your idol of choice.
>>742352278Yes, she's a tomboy. All MCs are female IIRC
>>742356287People at the top complained and wanted the line between Boy and Girl Inklings blurred more in Splatoon going forward.But Eyebrows usually still serve as a quick indicator. Boys have bigger Eyebrows, Girls have smaller Eyebrows.
>>742356267The tether-wail is really cool, but it feels like it needs a speed gadget to set it up properly
>>742344768Fuck off faggot
I still have no idea wtf this game is about. I watched the reveal thing yesterday and it made no sense to me. What exactly is the objective in Raiders?
>>742356267why is the boomerang shown twice
>>742359464It's an Objective based Looter Shooter.So far, a Stage's Objective can be either clearing out multiple enemy locations to build up points, clear a certain number of floors, or navigate an obstacle course with a Speed Gadget.Then up take the rewards and upgrade stuff.
>>742359531Hi-fiver and splatellites too. Just poor image editing for marketing material, I take it
>>742359464getting treasures, it's not that complicatedyou have individual levels, you clear them, get loot, raise your level and the fog of war across the map disappears revealing more levels probably until you get access to the center of the archipelago where you go below the surface to go fight the big bad
>>742341974it kinda sounded like some of them would be endless in the direct
>"Damn Fish are Saltin' my Sentry!"
>>742357243I always felt that the items you get for the Deep Cut amiibos have been pretty lame for some reason. In 3 they're just watered down versions of their real outfits and here they don't necessarily look bad, but they could be more varied.
>>742354665I'll wear whatever I want
>>742360715I really hope so. I want at least one that's randomized and endless.
>>742361386I really loved the ending track to side order, Onwardhttps://youtu.be/9fnchjXLNr0

Why is there a splatana gadgets and then the slatana?
>>742361969For non splatana users to have an armor piercing emergency kill button.
>>742361969Why are there explosion gadgets when there’s the explosher?
>>742361969because it allows you to have a splatana and another weapon at the same time
Am I the only one who really wants to pilot the Exploration Bot?
I hope there are OE style levels with multiple gadgets and crazy upgrades equipped to them. Could be such ludo

>>742363013There's 3 Difficulty Settings and no, raising the Difficulty does not improve the loot you can get.
>>742363034did anyone catch any footage of a maw? feel like he's the only one who didn't make the cut
>>742363680I saw a big ass seasoned maw.
>>742363680>>74236373812:20 in the direct
>>742363584Yeah I meant the youtubers that played it, id they mentionned difficulty or not at some pint and if survivalist is actually hard for seasoned players
>>742363856I'm more curious as to how it's handled when interacting with mp
>>742364009The first tweet about mp said the difficulty was adaptative depending on the number of players too
>>742363856Only seen this, eon’t watch tubers myself >>742350473
>>742364473>compfag Good sign, they're supposed to be able tovplay thr game fairly well, even if it's salmon run and not PvP

But what does it mean!?
>>742353175God the black one is so fucking hot. I don't know why but Splatoon's dark skin tones are lewd as fuck.
>>742366928Confirms the salmonids aren't being controlled
>>742366990
>>742366928>maya scriptfucking based
>>742367292Some of the Salmonid stickers and banners in 3 were Aztec inspired, I guess in general they got a Mesoamerican aesthetic thing going.
>>742367217This guy draws some of the best Marina art. Too bad it seems like he purged his Twitter.
>>742366990It's the lighting I think
>>742367429real splatoon fans decipher salmonid script
>>742366928Wasn't the new enemy that threw stuff that spawned tornadoes throwing small plastic bags full of some unknown salmon slop? I think that's a recipe for a free tornado in a bag.
>>742367604Frye's always had some nice big naturals.
>>742368093
>>742367496he's still around but stopped drawing splatoon content.
>>742341974You don't know how refreshing it is to see this after Pikmin 4 generally only had 5 floors per cave
>>742368536>Raiders is more Pikmin than Pikmin 4Funny but based nogami
>>742350630I'm convinced the people who originally voiced the inkling/octoling sounds for those voices has died and that's why Nintendo can't ever do anything with it

what's that contraption behind shiver? it appears in another cutscene, any chance it's another robot that can be used after a while?
>>742374771Looks like those things you see in a planetarium that that make light shows in dark rooms.

>>742373883>>742376867She's female, retard.
>>742380164Does this mean the Mechanic was an employee of GrizzCo back in Splatoon 2?
I am ready to do all of that, but I wouldn't really call Shiver and Frye my treasure-hunting wives. I'd fuck them every day while on the island, but you gotta do way more work to make me forfeit Callie and Marie. And to a lesser extent, Marina.>>742345616It's what I been saying the whole time, we needed details and good ones. Now it's looking like the game's gonna have some meat to it, the sort of things I'll wanna play every single day after I get home. And the best part is we still know nothing about the potential endgame or whatever, so I'm eager to see where it all leads.>>742353175Octoling girls are for me to hug.
>>742380887Or you could say they found an old Grizzco suit on the island somewhere
>>742380608In the trailers it's a girl but in the comic I think it's a boy.
looks like another game that was designed for switch1 that they threw on switch2 because they dont have any games for their new console.it literally looks the same as splatoon3.
It’s so cool that we’re getting a sick looking looter shooter. It’s like Destiny, except not shit and dead :)
>>742381086No? They're the same.
>>742380608"she" is going to be a boy in my playthrough and there's absolutely nothing you can do about it
>>742381838ok, doesn't change that she's canonically female
>>742381673so truenintendo showing these retards at bungie (3 billions looool) how it's done
>>742381875"she" obviously isn't canonically anything since you can choose "her" sex
>>742382035woomy gamewoomy series
>>742381875there is no canon gender for player characters, besides maybe captain
>>742381673Splatoon Raiders is poised to win the Shooter genre this year.Arc Raiders and Hell Divers are doing just ok, Marathon is dying, Destiny 2 IS dead, the latest Call of Duty ate shit, all of Sony's future Live-service titles will follow them, and Microsoft can't make anything because they fired everyone.
>>742382548All of them are female.
>>742382548Even the captain was made male for the anniversary art
>>742382912>agent 8 as a boyI don't know what to think about thatbut yeah they obviously don't have canon sexes, drop the autism
>>742373106>Tummy not exposedThat's a Boy Inkling.
>>742382912yes, also this artthat's why I said maybe, but there is somewhat of an argument for captain though because she is female in 3 by default if you don't have OE save data on your console
All this Salt and no has asked.......Where's the Pepper?
>>742382912>Top rightWoomy, where are you going? You're like, the most recognizable player character.Get over here!
>>742383425bro... what do you think the final boss is?
>>742363034Always appreciate Nintendo's ability to take a single race of creatures and give them a ton of shapes and forms based on what is needed for the game. Most developers would just make them an alliance of different creatures or something because they cannot get past the logic of how a fish would fly like a bird.
>>742383639I saw Lava, so I'm assuming......Bowser?
>>742382912Male 3 makes sense to me since he's been depicted like that multiple times over the years. The devs initially had a soft spot for him, going by the credits for 1. But male 8 was quite the bold move since female 8 is basically the most beloved girl in the series that isn't an idol.>>742383198Always liked this one, it's nice to see them all together like that.
>>742383579even she knows this photo op is a gay parade
>>742384416I'm scared of Femboy Agent 8's power.
>>742384416They've had male agent 8 plenty of times
>>742385623So, Captain Cuttlefish does like to watch Inklings and Octolings get closer together.
>>742338952So we are going to their land to kill and plunder and we justify it by saying they're evil? This game is very Japanese
>>742380887Well they can fly a helicopter they might have worked as one of the Grizz Co helicopter pilots.
when are we gonna see frye's special bond cutscene song?
>>742383083both female and male mechanic have their tummy exposed, the gear is not gender locked
You all want big man to have a harem or something?
>>742386151The Salmonids have already moved to invading Inkopolis and Splatsville. We have an obligation to sabotage as much of the Salmonid's infrastructure as possible to prevent further attacks.
>>742387965False flags. Grizzco did it so they'd be hired to go to their territory so they could get their golden eggs
>>742388165The Salmonids have been a problem since Inklings became Inklings, they should all be destroyed!
>>742388362So what you're saying is inklings have a right to defend themselves
>>742363034Surprised grillers didn't make it, even if they're not a normal boss salmonid seems like they'd be a good fit for Raiders.
>>742388661Inklings can save the lives of countless species, both on land and in the sea, by drowning those little salmonid bastards in Ink.
Frye is uggo.
>>742363034>>742388796Now that you mention it, I wonder what Seasoned Mudmouths would look like?
>>742388901She... has a nice body. More than what you could say of pearl
>>742388932They would look the same but get the launch period Splatoon 3 telefrag powers back.
>>742388901awful taste.
>>742389067Yeah, but Pearl is also portable.
*stomps u*
>>742386430I doubt we get more cutscene footage before release, so we'll have to wait.
>>742388932>>742389176
A lesser company would have given up on Frye, but Nintendo did everything they could to save her and holy krakens, they were successful.
>>742389420they might show maybe a little in a tweet, i'm hopeful.
I hope the Mechanic gets paid for all this overtime. This job was not supposed to last over a month.
>>742386151Inklings are not known to be moral paragons.
>>742390136don't worry, they get repaid in sex with big man
>>742386151Well you see the splatlandians are part of this banking scheme where they're driven to extreme debt which forces them to invade salmonid territory to plunder it which then displaces them and allows a certain tribe to develop the newly stolen land.
dont even bother asking /v/ for gamesthey only play with their clique
>>742390838But I'm playing Side Order right now.

I miss when Deep Cut were antagonistic assholes for like an hour.
>>742393458Assholes, they barely managed to be jerks. Team Rocket is more intimidating than these dorks.
>>742385623Up until the anniversary image, that's literally the only time I've seen the guy in any sort of art. There were the renders for OE's release but otherwise it's been female 8 almost the entire time.>>742385147>powerIf only you knew how little power he possessed.
>>742386151Do we think this is their land, or land they had invaded and conquered long ago? That one tweet seemed to suggest the OE style stuff was constructed by some other group
Give me that God of War hatchet in the Power tank
I like that the Boost Boot is just a high flying axe kick.
ded
>>742363034How do you think the hierarchy of bullshit salmon will change in this game? Flyfish should drop a lot. Steel eel may also drop, since strong hits disable its inking. I think that leaves a power vacuum for drizzler to take the crown. But smoker also seems like it could be incredibly annoying with its aoe armor
>>742398953I expect the smoker to be spammed later in the game. Just 2-3 shields active all the time.
>>742397935I do hope you can pick at least one gadget from different tanks
>>742361386how do they get away with putting this fat kidsquid ass right there on the cover?
>>742341974If anything I learned from Salmon Run is that its going to be a Marathon after a certain point
>>742398953I'm wondering just how annoying smokers will be. Is it straight up damage negation, a percentage decrease, or is it extra armor you have to power through?
>>742399802>squidThat's an octoling, you fucking tourist.
>>742357040I dont know why, but ever since Conduit 2 on the wii, before I knew about Team Fortress, I always wanted to play a Turret weapon only class and not too many FPS gave me this which is seriously bizarre.
>>742400331First or second. We see it drop from 45 to 5, iirc. So it is either a reduction or it’s straight up only 5 regardless. There may be more footage that clarifies, but that’s what I remember from the direct
>>742400765Well ain't that just peachy. Lids could already be bad enough, now we got tiny eels that make it even more mobile. Long as I'm thinking about it, may as well watch the direct again.
>>742398953The increased movement and verticality will be a big shake up for this too in a way that is a little hard to predict>>742400998Share any little observations you make, anon
>>742389176I remember the early days of Splatoon 3 where the lag was a big deal on higher hazard levels. And despite the game slowing down, the timer did not, so it was really hard to stabilize once too many salmons entered the level.
>>742401362Honestly, I'm too engrossed in all the little non-gameplay things I love like the designs of all the pre-existing salmonid and the new freaks. I wasn't expecting salivators to be wielders of TORNADO HOLD. As a sack of shit, no less. I do wonder how valid it'll be to just let them cover the field in those things so you shoot em and utilize updrafts. Likely depends on how long they last.>>742402034Switch 2 was worth it just for the way it runs salmon run at higher EVPs without slowing down anymore. I'm still somewhat astounded at going into the city and it not running at 30 fps anymore.
>>742402034I honestly didn’t mind that much. There’s something satisfying about framerate drops when it happens because you’re doing better than the game can handle. Still, glad it’s better
>Power Tank's promotional art is using the conch gadget>direct doesn't actually touch upon what it doesWhy
>>742402501It’s actually just an onahole you use to keep from assaulting Frye and Shiver
>>742402652>assaulting>Frye and ShiverAnon, you know full well they'd drain any man that was stranded alone with them.
Okay, so I saw that there was a bit during the tank upgrade section where a power tank was using blast boots despite those being speed tank gadgets. And someone talked about a speed tank using shot pots the other day. Perhaps when the narrator was talking about getting to use 3 gadgets, the third one can be taken from a different tank type.
>>742402981>”big men” when the short tempered, violent idols start banging on their bedroom door for fifth round that day
>>742403261Seems likely. We can see here by the color coded UI that the gadgets and relics are otherwise restricted to you tank type, for the anons that seemed confused by that
The bonds will likely increase the power of the showstoppers, yeah? Seems pretty obvious, even if they haven’t actually shown it
>>742403540At first I figured it was obvious but when they mentioned the shot pot on speed, I wanted to get a closer look at things. Most likely scenario is you get one of your choice, but the primary two slots are still locked to the tank's type. Customization, but not too much. I wouldn't be surprised if the third one was also slightly less powerful.
>>742339752I love Shiver. Video games need more slanty eyed, monolid qts. Even the characters in games that are supposed to be “Asian” rarely have them. It’s kind of pathetic when you think about it.
>>742403792Seems like a really good balance to give you flexibility in rounding out a build while also maintaining the identity of roles in a way that makes co-op more engaging and incentivizes you to change your build to suit the circumstances of a tough challenge
>>742389389>Drill til we get our fillYes, Frye
>>742404060I can already see specific builds to help cover up vulnerabilities. Trailer already had power tank with blast boots for a quick getaway. Maybe speed tank with meteor mitt for last-resort AoE damage, or technical with booyarang for more non-direct hits.
>>742404408Some cool combos come to mind too. I’m thinking a speed build with tether wail, to get a fuck ton of enemies between it and you. Speed’s zipcast or technical’s fan to combo with meteor mitt’s increased explosion from larger heights. Splatellites to crowd control as you dash bomb to specific targets. Or throwable splatellites variant to synergies with hi-fiver and shot pot for complete area denial
>>742399802It's in-game too.
>Octarians did exchange for salmonids for power egg>The robot and tank in Raiders use power eggs as an energy sourceWere the people who built the tech friends with the salmonids or at least in peace for a while?
>>742350612to be perfectly fair the main campaigns of 1 and 2 weren't great
>>742405017The possibilities are kinda crazy and now I want the game even more now. Didn't realize zipcaster was speed, but that does make the most sense. Also forgot about the little fan gadget.
>>742345616Of course the game's good, it's splatoon. There was never any doubt.It's just that it's on switch 2, and I hate putting down money for a new console..
>>742405396Eight is perfection
>>742408373Just do it, you know you'll want splatoon 4 and the price is gonna go up soon
>>742338952gonna buy it day one and get my dick minced by a spitroasted salmonid
So.. is this a new version of Salmon Run or something else?
>>742393458They turned frye into a super nice big sister in raiders who's just worried about the mechanic and coddles her.
>>742353175octolings dont look erotic at any random moment challenge (impossible)
>>742411846Side order Salmon run single player
>twitter account is private nowWhy'd he have to quit? It was bad enough he deleted all the tweets with sexy girls, now it's just all gone. He didn't even give us agent eight lewd before he left...
>>742338952I hate Deep Cut.
>>742386151Jewish*
>>742349636Sauce me up famalam
>>742414150Seems to happen pretty often with Asian artists for some reason. They just love deleting everything at the drop of a hat.
>>742415228It's not fair. Style was so good, managed to capture both the cute and sexy aspects of the characters perfectly.
If the bottom of one of the dungeons has yet another, semi-functional/alive remains of a human(s), yet again. Would that be cool or cliche? But I guess the salmonids having basically just eaten and absorbed some human factories or energy facilities or something might just be better even then.
Just recently got a Switch 2 before the price hike.Is it a bit late in getting Splatoon 3 now? Never played the previous installments so I'm not sure what I'm running into.
>>742415616The game is still very alive, and there are enough dumb children playing to ensure new players don't get stomped.
>>742342439game is entirely playable alone. Players can press a 'help' button that turns the mission into a 4 player mission that others see and choose to join. You can't do this constantly for whatever reason, but you can join games as much as you like. In other words, so long as people are pressing the help button, you can consider it an online game with randos
>>742416379Granblue Relink?
I still can't believe that a simple change of haircut was all what Frye needed, she went from ugly goblin to hot chocolate girl.
>>742416507splat
>>742416540more like she went from cute goblin to cute goblin
>>742338952Splatoon raiders is probably going to be my goty
I feel like the only weyyo player
>>742418074weyyo's are for molesting
Why is she looking at me like that
She knows she's the real treasure
>>742419320>official backstory for the home base of operationsActually really cool that we're getting this.
>>742412851>side orderEveryone using this comparison is dumb. There’s less Side Order than any of the other single player modes. It’s looter shooter Salmon Run + 1/2 campaign + OE/RotM
>>742344768How did you Spyke?
>>742419320I like how Shiver keeps trying to have a "yakuza's aura" only for the mechanic to destroy it.
>>742417160Same anon, same. And probably something I play on and off for years, which is sick
>>742419767The upgrade system, misybof the new salmonifs, level up system, floor system in caves, and that one mechanic where you jump in the air when in danger are all really side order to me. The caves especially reuse really similiar layouts, of course they're mostly pikmin 2 but still. I agree it's more alike to other games but Side order definetely is here
>>742421687The upgrade system isn’t really that SO. It’s a bit more SO than the other campaigns for gadgets, but it’s not really direct. And only salty tongue and the hovering lesser are similar, right? Salty is a stretch anyway, it doesn’t seem to launch salmon. Smoker, Salivator and the lesser bombs aren’t SO. Floors are similar, but level geometry aside and attempts aside, they’re more like SR waves. Is broken armor jump in Raiders?There is definitely some shared lessons and ingredients from SO, but it is relatively minor considering the melting pot of past concepts in here. It should be namedropped last among the influences. It getting top billing in any description is very misleading, and is probably people who had that preconceived notion before knowing shit about it. And even worse, some, including the largest gaming media outlet, actually said Raiders is “kind of a roguelike,” which is frankly unbelievably braindead
>>742424885Master Mega’s gotta do some crazy shit when you reach max bond
>>742415026sry to disappoint, but it's AI
>>742352229I hope one of the endless dungeons has the mythics in them. I love a good boss rush. I wonder if lessers and bosses will appear in their fights
Neat little particle effect on the startup of the ax kick. Game looks really nice. Glad we have the bespoke Nintendo app for this stuff since the shitter video player is complete garbage
>>742430835>Glad we have the bespoke Nintendo app for this stuffHow do I download the images or videos from the app though?
>>742431647you have to root your phone
>>742419320I think the Mechanic can run circles around most Octolings at this point.
>>742433680Definitely, but octos are more engineers. Their stuff often has more of a technology side to it
>>742434276Damn Octos and their Military State funding.
I think I'll focus on Shooters in Splatoon Raiders. I spent most of Splatoon 3 with Splatlings and while I'll no doubt use every weapon at some point, I think I'll keep it simple for awhile.
>>742424885>Mechanic please, I beg you>please impregnate Shiver
>>742338952all inklings are inferior to octolingsall female inklings will be turned into breeding slaves, while male inklings will be turned into sissy sex slaves.
>>742435323Give it up, you lost the war.Three different times.
>>742435323Octoedbro....
>>742435323salmonids are the superior race though
>>742435813This. Jerking off to your inkling getting gangraped by salmonids and made into their breeding stocks for all the eggs she stole is hot
If you look at gameplay with 3 gadgets equipped, you can also see a UI symbol for the equipped tank. Each tank seems to have an active ability>speed: tank torrent>power: tank surge>tactical: tank vortexVortex seems like it could be an aoe vacuum style power, which would be great and synergize really well with its gadgets and facilitate fun team play. No ideas for the other two, besides move speed and damage up. Any thoughts?
>Octolings abandoned DJ Octavio and the Octo Empire just to hook up with Inkling Boys.
>>742339591you know nothing about the game.
>>742344768Remember to dilate today!
>>742436103So we have our Main Weapon, Both Gadgets, possibly a 3rd Gadget later, Tank Ability, and our Showtime meter?
>>742436492Yep, plus weapon perks, relic powers and gadget upgrades. So big arsenal with a yon of customization
Splatoon Raiders is like Salmon Run, but without the trash weapon rotations or my dumbass shore-loving teammates.It's the best.Also, I want to pick my Weapon in Splatoon 4's Salmon Run mode.
>>742338952Those treasures were promised to us thousands of years ago
>>742338952Honestly, the fact Salmonids have so much treasure is a whole barrel of questions on to itself.Do they worship a Salmonid God? Perhaps they worship ancient Salmonid warriors?
>>742438007>my dumbass shore-loving teammates.profreshitter...
i'll bond with her if you catch my drift
>>742439930Shitters extend into mid EVP, depending on your threshold and the rotation
