@ChaseLanglands Is it superficial to prefer that a game lets me see a character arc unfold onscreen rather than through exposition, text, or still images? I know Splatoon isn’t expected to have 5-star narratives, but it’s clear how much more cohesive S3’s campaign was.
And I’m specifically taking about the actual campaign, not offscreen lore or sunken scrolls. It’s crazy how unbalanced Callie’s screen time was compared to Marie’s
@ChaseLanglands It’s the mind control and lack of screen time. That’s really it for me. I acknowledge that when all was said and done, Callie actually helped a lot. But why couldn’t they show her *being herself* and let us see the good deeds she’s doing.
@ChaseLanglands The canon reasoning behind it really doesn’t matter to me. It still comes off as a lazy trope and it robbed Callie of what could’ve been meaningful agency in the campaign. Mind controlled Callie is not the Callie I love.
This just makes me even more upset that Callie was shafted as hard as she was. Because either way, ONE of them was going to be treated 10x worse than the other, when they should have made up DURING the campaign. Yet another reason why S2’s campaign is the worst imo.
@ChaseLanglands At that point in the narrative, Octavio was still very much not cool with the inklings. I could see Callie working AROUND him to try to gain the octarians’ trust, but not with. She also should have rejoined the Squidbeak MUCH earlier in the campaign.
@ChaseLanglands The 2 worst problems I have with it are the mind control and the fact she was offscreen for 95% of the campaign. Pretty much every other complaint I have was made with those two things in mind.
I think I solved my problem of obtaining models for now but I am still extremely baffled at how models resource still isn't even close to having all the gear models.
Day 21: Boss Battle
I know callie isnt a boss, but just imagine being an octotrooper and you have to fight callie and her monster of a roller, absolutely a boss battle if you ask me
