If I remember correctly the squidies are stated to be teens at the very earliest

Yeah, but that's just the Nowi/Etna excuse
>no you see, she's ACTUALLY a 10,000 year old demon

They obviously looks like stylized 10 year olds, at best:

there are some questions in lie we will never get questins to, whats more we are talking about a seprate species so who knowns how the ageing process works on the inklings once they reach this state

Yeah, but that's not the point here. I'm talking about appearance, not semantics.

Pedos are attracted to the squid kids, and drawn endless amounts of porn of them. Clearly they must look like kids.

Then, if you have a poster in-game sexualizing a squid kid... in a game meant for children... we'll clearly it's done to pander to the pedophiles who've adopted your game.

 

[Knight Dude]

Not saying it's porn, but it's defo pushing it, especially since it looks like the boy squid in fact. Then again, I forgot about Nowi.

I'm just saying, it certainly has a huge gross factor when you consider how many Splatoon fans are legit pedos drawing porn of the squids.

It does seem rather weird to me, compared to most of the art in Splatoon, being fairly innocent. I'd agree with you on that. If it gets any backlash, it might be changed.

This is usually the kind of crap I just ignore in most situations.

Does it look like the male inkling? It doesn't seem like it to me, it seems like a female inking to me.


It just seems like a female inkling replicating a fashion poster to me. As for their proportions, who cares? They clearly have cartoon proportions anyway. Perhaps you yourself just like lolls since you think this is so sexual.

A bit off the main topic of yours, but I'm slightly surprised that the adult body length is at 8 instead of 7 1/2. I figured the teenager would be the same or 7 heads even, just slightly smaller.

Seriously tho, Zola would have ended the whole war but somehow taking prisoners is dishonorful. They prefer killing their kwn troops instead of the Hoshido Royal family and there's no way any of those poor Generals following their orders were left alive when Leo killed Zola so Garon wouldn't know.

They definitely could've handled the scene better. But let's be honest, considering part of Corrin's goal was also to keep his Hoshido siblings from dying and trying to save as many as possible, Garon would've had them killed before being convinced to go on the Hoshido throne, cause "lol suffer".
For that scene, one way that could have made the scene better is:
-if the plan to capture them was revealed beforehand
-they discuss the potential of being able to end the war quickly while having a possibility of saving Hoshidan lives
-Corrin and Azura ponder the option to capture the siblings by thinking about their chances at surviving and being able to get Garon on the throne before they are executed
-but than after something serious happens(like say, Leo is accused of helping people/prisoners survive which causes Garon to "test" his loyalty by having him actually kill a Hoshidan prisoner, which he's forced to comply in order to convince Garon)
-Corrin than leans to the side that if they capture the siblings, more lives could be lost than saved and the siblings could die before Corrin can convince Garon to just go on the Hoshidan Throne.

The other way they could've handled it better is if they actually made the poor economy of Nohr an actual plot point and Corrin stops the capturing of the siblings in order to appeal to his siblings than tell them about Nohr's economic problem and that Ryoma should try helping not Garon, but the Nohrians with providence, in an attempt to try and urge Garon to stop war as Hoshido is willing to help them with their economic problems.
Then the next chapter focuses on the ration providence being sabotaged by unknown folk.

It's all in Japanese, but they're apparently "considering" releasing an English version. I've played around with it a bit myself, it's a pretty decent tool, and easy to work with (if you can get past the language barrier), but it's more in the style of older FE games than newer ones. And, like others have mentioned, if you don't balance it properly, you're going to end up with some pretty daft situations.

Oh! I knew that game existed and have been keeping an eye on it, but I wasn't aware that there were plans for a Switch version. That's pretty cool. Hope it comes out in English.

 

[Knight Dude]

Homura (the red redhead) is proven to be the most popular Xenobalde 2 character so far, Hikari (the blonde green girl) being a close second. Rex (the boy) only had a couple votes with the cat girl Nia getting none. But that can change when the game is out this year or next year, knowing all of their roles in the story.

Now we are doing the Mega Man multiverse, starting with the classics. Your choices are Dr. Wily, Bass, Proto Man, and Roll.

There was a problem fetching the tweet

Take your time since this one will happen all night until I do Mega Man X tomorrow morning.




More like Getting Crap Past the Radar. How did they even get away with this?

I don't have a twitter account myself. But if I could make a choice, I'd go for Bass. I feel he has enough unique abilities with his aiming shots, Dash Tackle and Buster Kick(Mega Man 7's vs Mode) the Cresent Kick from the Mega Man arcade games. And on top of that, he could use all the weapons from Mega Man and Bass to fill in most other gaps. Same with the MM10 weapons.

[Robertman2]

There's a controversial Splat2n image?

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

Is Nintendo legit trying to attract pedophiles to their game with this sorta stuff?

Spoiler

Am I the only one who finds this somewhat disturbing?

I mean, children won't find this appealing, squid kids are literally kids. And that's the boy Squid on top of that. I also don't quite see the humor in that either. There's only one group of people who I can see this sorta thing appealing to, and that's the same crowd drawing all the Squid kid porn, of which I'm certain Nintendo is well aware of. I mean, why have this outside of pandering to that crowd?

Am I alone in this sentiment? Or am I making mountains out of molehills.

And I'm sure some of you will find this ironic considering I was against the censorship of XCX and Fatal Frame, but in those games, you had girls with adult bodies being sexualized. These are literal (well virtual) kids... implied to be around 10, that's a different story, and lines are certainly being crossed here. Even if legal in Jaan, why pander to that crowd at all?

even if it was a normal poster, the turnout would still be the same

 

[Aetheri]

You can hook a dude up with a Zora kid in Breath of the Wild, I just assumed Nintendo has a thing for seafood.
I'll see myself out.

She's older than he is...so its OK!

They're ideal proportions. It really depends on how you wanna draw it. Most anime actually uses 7 or less. Jojo uses I think 9 heads to make them seem much more intimidating and imposing. Girl proportions are also smaller. Basically, the bigger the head is relative to the body, the less adult they seem.

Does it look like the male inkling? It doesn't seem like it to me, it seems like a female inking to me.

I care because I think it's kinda disgusting to pander to pedos in a children's game. I really wouldn't voice this opinion if Splatoon didn't already have an obvious fanbase of pedophiles.

It's kinda like how sometimes children's cartoons will have the little girls twerk, or how the Chipettes in Alvin and the Chipmunks were always so obviously sexualized, except, in this case it's a bit different because the game already draws a large following of people who are into loli, shota, and children. It's like, being aware that your game attracts pedos, and then deliberately throwing them a bone. Like, Blazblue, and Fire Emblem doing this sorta stuff doesn't bother me as much, because those aren't meant for kids anyway, but Splatoon IS. And thus, having this in there is a bit creepy and weird. Even if there's no voice chat, you're creating an environment where children and pedos can play a game together, and by having this in there, you kinda encourage that, and to some desgree that DOES bother me, because Children are also present, and unaware of what's going on. Something like Blazblue for example sexualizing Rachael who clearly has the body of a little girl, isn't bothersome to me cause I've come to expect that out of Japan, and Blazblue is meant for otakus anyway. But Splatoon's intended audience is literally kids, and for that reason, it does bug me. Not only that, but BB also has a lot more variety in designs than Splatoon. In Splatoon, all the characters look like kids. There is a major creep factor to it all.

Well he seems to have such an intellectual understanding of what a pedophile is, but that's none of my business.

Honestly, in my opinion the subject as a whole should be dropped. There's a whole lot of straw grasping and the tensity of the conversation is building.

Xander is basically just racist to Hoshidans throughout most of Conquest for no good reason (

Wait, he does? I can't remember a single scene like that in the entire game tbh

i mean its not sexual its a parody of a fashion and on a seprate note your dealing with a world where theres already a height chart of the inklings as they age up to the point that they are in game ergo you CANT use a realistic body chart on the fictional species

Yeah, your argument would work if pedophiles weren't drawing creepy loli and shota porn of the squid kids on a regular basis already.

You can also have a fashion poster without having an inkling wearing a swimsuit and giving a seductive look. The game is literally built around fashion, and the Inkling already WEAR a variety of fashionable outfits which could have made a poster. In universe, wouldn't it make more sense to have a poster parodying fashion while at the same time showcasing equipment you can ACTUALLY buy?

What they put there just feels like pandering, and it is off putting.

Pandering to pedophiles is never ok.

Let them have their loli and shota porn, ok, but don't pander to them in a children's game. I'm not saying "this makes people into pedos" I'm saying, "you're pandering to pedos in a game that children also play." That's a whole different story. This is why you won't see me throw a fit, again, about Rachael in Blazblue, or all the sexual humor involving underage girls in the Monogatari series. Because THOSE aren't targeted at kids in the first place.


EDIT: Whoop, double post. Sorry.

Bringing it up is one thing, blowing it out of proportion is another. The reason why I bring that up is because he's sexualizing something that's not sexual I zed in the first thing.

That or he's just making big big claims with little to back them up with as usual.

My point is very simple.

It's that it's very offputting, to have a poster of a sexualized child, in a game meant for kids, that has known to draw a fanbase of pedophiles to it.

If the game is meant for kids, why have that in there in the first place? The fact that you drew that crowd to your game, is all the MORE reason to avoid stuff like that.

I think you're turning a glass of spilled water into a tsunami. A hardly suggestive image in a game isn't going to make pedos flock to a bunch of kids, and this isn't even close to as risque as a normal adult joke slipped into a kid's show, calm down.

I'll admit it's not the most prevalent or obvious thing, and I may only see it as so prevalent because Xander really doesn't have much going for him in Conquest other than his honour creed which is the one consistent trait across the board. I feel like for the most part, he's pretty much just "there" in Conquest, up as far as I've played anyway.

But I feel he always has this condescending air about him whenever the subject of Hoshidans comes up, or when one is in his presence.

Spoiler

Chapter 18 is the biggest example so far, where he encourages petty bickering whenever Ryoma so much as tries to go near Corrin, despite everyone being unarmed, while Ryoma is at least making some effort to keep the situation civil (though isn't completely innocent himself). He gets really condescending about it and acts as if all Hoshidans are sly and deceptive. And after you rescue the Hoshidan siblings, Xander comments that he only saved them because that's how a self-respecting Nohrian should act - his choice of words is key there, because he doesn't simply say something like "I detest the idea of slaughtering unarmed people, even if they are my enemy", he has to make that connection to it being a Nohrian thing to do, as if a Hoshidan by comparison would act less honourably. Ryoma, by contrast, makes no such connection to national pride, simply stating that it's the right thing to do in general.

I'm also aware that Camilla and Leo make more blatant racist remarks, especially during this chapter, but with Leo it's excusable as him being condescending is a key, consistent character trait of his (and has a greater reason behind it), and if Xander was written correctly, they could have even depicted him trying to set a good example for Leo and try to teach Leo to respect Hoshidans a little more. Instead, Xander starts many of these dung flinging contests himself.

It's not excusable with Camilla either, but I guess I'm just de-sensitised there because Camilla has very few redeeming qualities to me from a characterisation standpoint so I wasn't caught off guard.

On second thought, it was definitely harsh of me to say that he's basically just a racist in Conquest, though because he has so little going for him in Conquest, it's probably standing out to me more than it should.

I was going to get Splatoon 2 eventually, even though I had one game in the morning test-fire just before it ended. I might try again at 2PM (AEST) then once again before bed.

[Ivander]

Suggestive imagery in a children's product? Seen by children everywhere?! Think of the children!

I am very certain most kids won't notice or even care about them. Heck, I bet some of us who watched this show and episode didn't even think about this when we got older.

Besides this show, I'd also like to point out we also have a children's cartoon where someone who's failed attempts at wooing the lady is eventually followed by the same character making a actual copy of the same lady in an attempt to get that one to love him.
And that's not even counting Disney stuff.

Seriously, suggestiveness is nothing new. And there's no need to blow it out of proportion considering even if it wasn't there, there were already going to be people who put the stuff on the radar anyway. There always was and there always will be. There will just be people who's sole purpose is to ruin other people.

( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Not quite...

Again, I wouldn't voice this as an issue if the game already didn't already have a large following of pedos as its fanbase. Go to any Splatoon thread on 4chan (where people have the safety of anonymity), and you'll see tons of people saying stuff like <content_redacted>

and posting dozens upon dozens of lewd images of BOTH the inklings. I literally came here, from a thread on 4chan that brought this up, and bunch of people started to defend it, and say "get out normie" to anyone telling them they were disgusting.

The fact that actual pedos were overjoyed by having something like this in the game, is a very telling sign of it all.

This is not the same as having an adult joke in a children's cartoon, because you've got a crowd of very disgusting people jumping for joy over something like this. That's what makes this a totally different issue. Yeah, it's certainly kinda gross to have something that so blatantly makes a group of people who find their attraction to prepubescent children perfectly normal so happy.

Again, I'll defend a lot of things. But pedophilia is where I draw the line. I'll always stand by the rights and the protection of children above all, and encouraging said attraction to children, in a game MARKETED to kids, is a big no-no in my book.

Again, the big question here is, if this is meant for kids, why have it in there at all?

 

[JamesDNaux]

I have a strong urge to get it, but I'm not really in the best position to. Maybe if I can get on my feet by then, but times are rough.

I actually find that very gross tbh. If you're being serious, I would honestly recommend you get help.

One other question, how are chargers?

The idea of already having a fully charged shot before getting out of squid form sounds like it has a lot of potential to be crazy

Missed the first testfire since I was at work.
But it was a very very busy day, made just as much money on food as Victoria, which was surprising since it was just me and one other guy and they had 6 people.
