Finally dug up my favorite Odyssey tweet ever

😭 😭 😭😭😭 <- pretend this is loss

reminder: you do not have to keep playing this game. additionally, unless you are top level, you don't even have to use the meta, it only becomes important enough at top levels. having discussions about balance is fine and healthy but if it just devolves into doomerism every time it becomes bad

I don't wanna single anyone out but I saw a post on my TL saying that we should be angrier and louder at nintendo so they fix the game and if I'm gonna be honest that is not going to do shit LMFAO

100% big walk, good game

bullying children until nintendo nerfs this gun

big walk is such an amazing game, i really wanna write up a full review on it on my blog and why i think it works so well

Also this may be a biiit of a hot take but I don't think this is a terrible trait for a weapon to have, nor is it counterintuitive to gal's weapon design. Larger ink globs at long range allow it to excel at trapping which is cool. It's just kind of funny that this gun gets that and everything else

For the .52 gal previously, the WidthHalf would be 2.11 before 1.1 units and get scaled UP to 2.25 at 20 units. Now, it gets scaled DOWN to 2.07 at 20 units. Pre-patch, 52 gal was the only shooter to actually scale up its paint with distance. Ridiculous.

don't talk to me or my son ever again

guys if you don’t like splatoon 3 you can just stop playing it

if the balance team was biased towards shooters during S2 they're biased towards rollers in S3. kind of insane how many range buffs every roller has been getting

worth noting for comparion's sake that octobrush's roll speed is .168

Carbon roller also moves slightly faster while rolling at max speed, from 0.152 to 0.16. Default swimming speed is 0.1728/0.192/0.2016 and default running speed is 0.088/0.096/0.104 for heavy/middle/lightweights. I believe this also makes it consume ink faster while rolling.

Alright I'm gonna make a quick thread about what changed in 11.3.0 just to explain some of the more interesting changes that might not be easy to understand at first.

This is to say nothing of the fact that ADHD is a dynamic disability. Some days I am ON. TOP. OF. IT. Other days I barely have enough executive function to feed myself. Anyway, if this mythical superfluous support ever materializes, I really need a personal administrative assistant.

params.pack is my temple i go there to pray at least once a week

windows is becoming a larger timesink than linux

Sean Aitchison@sean8urson.bsky.social · 3d ago

oh shit its for real for real fucking DO NOT update your windows, I had to do a clean reinstall

<-- is waiting for the new params.pack

if you want copium for the latest patch, the devs could be playing it safer bc it hasn't been that long since the most recent patch and adding the plastic bottle splattershot in was a quick last minute thing and they decided to just bundle whatever balance changes they were working on with it

at what point do i put my perfectionism aside and call my blobber simulations good enough

Woah.

Lol irl at the Dragon Quest VIII one

Back in 2018 I wrote an article about "political references added to video game translations" Then I did it again, a few weeks ago in 2025, so here is PART 2! legendsoflocalization.com/articles/pol... #translation #politics #翻訳

splatoon franchise devs in 2059 buffing .52 one last time for nogami

what's EXTRA funny about this is that this is literally the exact same nerf they gave it in the last patch of splatoon 2! literally the exact same! and we all know how that ended up, what the fuck did they think this would accomplish

GAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAA

i predict 52 gal will come out unscathed. come on people when has this gun ever actually been nerfed

so they didn't announce when the patch was dropping and ppl are just assuming it's coming out tomorrow because they usually drop on wednesday right

Just putting this here ahead of time
