I hate this boss. I just barely managed to beat him. Only had my healer left. I just got lucky with poison I stacked on him.

I'm glad that they fixed the opening to the second phase. Because that was the definition of unfair

begging the splatoon team to realise that competitive players are not and will never be the majority of the playerbase and the more they focus their efforts on them by making every single aspect of the game more "serious" and centred on winning the more they will alienate and lose their more casual players. Like please please please please please don't go the Overwatch route I'm begging you, I want to play this game to be a silly goofy guy not to have rankings forced down my throat in 4 out of 5(!!!) pvp queues. The whole point of splatoon is to be silly goofy and unserious why are they constantly going against the core of the series so much to try and please like 5% of their players

My first time trying out pixel art, with a wonderful little app for my phone!!! End product is very simple and hardly flawless, but I don’t think too bad for my first try!

you should talk about your thoughts on rw fanon (looking with huge eyes)

Oh god, there's a lot of major misconceptions have concreted into fanon, mostly around ancient society and ascension.

First things first! Ascension is not death! They are entirely separate things treated entirely separately by the text of the game. I can see where the interpretation is coming from, but it doesn't really align with how the text treats either subject. Five Pebbles may want to remove the self destruction taboo, but from his reaction to the rot it's clear that he doesn't want to die. Conflation of ascension and death only comes up as an offhand possibility that pebbs makes on iterator 4chan, when he's going into the possibilities of scenarios that even the other sliverists are doubtful of! (let me make clear that I am not a sliverist by any means)

Ascension is more of talked about as a form of transcendence, yeah? A Bell, Eighteen Amber Beads talks about their sitution as being "To have grasped at the boundless infinites of the cosmic void…", not as them seeking an end to life.

The beta dialogue goes into more detail, mentioning the "infinities of time and space" and the "boundless fractal planes of spirit and reality...", though this dialogue was cut and it's hard to tell how much it reflects the concept as in the released game.

As for the cultural misconceptions... there's A Lot to talk about, but the first that comes to mind is the common conflation of the five natural urges and the christian concept of sin.

It is true that the negation of urges is mentioned by moon as an alternative method of ascension, but much of what we know about the culture of the people who the fandom calls the ancients (which makes discussion of the depths a mess but that's something for another post entirely) points towards the urges not being seen as shameful.

Even the first urge does not seem to be particularly scorned! Being a warrior is presented as a cause for bragging in the Shaded Citadel pearl, being comparable with being an artist and a fashion legend. The second urge, also does not seem to be suppressed. Multiple sources attribute some level of honour to parenthood! The aforementioned pearl also mentions Seventeen Axes, Fifteen Spoked Wheel as being a "Mother, Father and Spouse" without any hint of shamefulness. Nineteen Spades, Endless Reflections expresses pride about having progeny, mentioning it alongside their owned land and esteem among their peers.

After some peer review, an esteemed friend has told me to add a section on purposed organisms as well! This is not so much my area, so I might be a bit off on some things.

As moon says, the majority of purposed organisms were tubes in boxes, and that the primal fauna of the world are almost entirely extinct. A lot of the fandom seems to ignore the first part, and i can't say I blame them, but the evolution of the creatures is so much weirder than people think.

Concept art for the creatures has this interesting quality to it, where the organic parts of the creatures have an almost... melty quality to them.

In the concept art, the flesh appears as if it's almost defying the machinery to form an animal shape. It's as if it's conquering its own artificiality the way the foliage grows over the (stone, brick and concrete, not mostly metal as some think!) ruins.

Of course, it's hard to really tell how much of this reflects the finalised concept, most of the integration is much smoother in the game, in line with a seamless kind of biomechanical design. There was always an intention of biomechanical strangeness, as shown in this screenshot of the devlog before the term "slugcat" even existed!

That said, the melty nature of the concept art shows a level of wild change inherent the biomechanical nature of the creatures, as if they truly are the result of these "tubes in boxes" almost revolting against their own boxes.

and considering centipedes... some tubes may not have had boxes in the first place!

There was a period of time where I was extremely fixated on trickster mode specifically. I wish we could have seen more of that in the comic with the trolls or even the beta kids. It would have been fun.

Anyway a small part of me wants to make these into stickers someday, so I might end up drawing the humans in their trickster modes too at some point. Eventually.

I wonder if Melinoe manages to wake up Hypnos, it could unlock a new game mode for Hades 2. Maybe Hypnos can bring Chronos and Melinoe into his sleep domain. Chronos may be able to control time, but sleep logic turns time... wonky.

I'm sure plenty of us have had dreams where it felt like you spent 2 weeks in there and but you were only asleep for like 15 minutes. Same goes for when you go through 6 hours' worth of sleep that feels like it passed in an instance.

Chronos still has his time powers in Hypnos' domain, but he's not in complete control. This can make defeating Chronos both easier and harder because Chronos is NOT in control. In exchange for a fight where Chronos can't reverse time on you at the end when you defeat him, you could end up repeating specific phases of the same fight possibly all the way back to the beginning for the chance to really damage Chronos.

Hypnos' domain would be a gamble for the skilled and the lucky because there's a good chance it could devolve into a disorienting slugfest.
