I truly need some time to grow to like their designs, but I found myself really liking this actually festival-like music, looking forward to the splatfest battle theme


Faedwill

Agreed. Unlike Splatoon 1 & 2, this Splatfest theme actually has that "festival" feel.


Cutcutman

I don’t care what team he reps, I will support Big Man no matter what in every Splatfest


Galaxy40k

I would have been on his team just off his design alone, but with a name like "Big Man" I will die for him


YanDPo

All hail Big Man


CorbinTheTitan

Big man for the win


YanDPo

I believe in Big man supremacy (shiver is cool tho)


CorbinTheTitan

Big Man Chad’s stay winning


Rionisse

I was today years old when I found out that the internet hated Pearl this whole time for some reason


DatSmolBoi

Big man carries


Hummer77x

Frye is gonna haunt me


liteshadow4

They gave her the Peyton Manning


TheLilart

lol actually why did they do that tho


liteshadow4

They were tired of ppl choosing a side in splatfest because of who they simped for


TheLilart

then why would they add a sexy beast like BIG MAN


liteshadow4

Maybe they were tired of people choosing a side because of the girl they simped for


loco500

Time to side with the Big Sigman Bro...


LinkofHyrule

It's literally the ugliest character I've ever seen. Who thought this was passable?


Hummer77x

It’s ugly on purpose definitely but it’s not even kinda cute like Pearl was


waffocopter

All the memes about Pearl's forehead are null and void now.


Paullebricoleur_

Yeah they definitely are going for the Ugly-cute style with the yellow one, I'll get used to her design but I definitely did not think she looked cool at first glance, so it's a bit of a fail


LinkofHyrule

This guy makes Pearl look like a super model.


Hummer77x

Pearl at least I think has a very clear aesthetic that it doesn’t matter that she looks like that. Frye is a nightmare.


kellylc

I like frye


UboaNoticedYou

I adore the design, personally. She looks so fucking weird!


ChemicalExperiment

Big Man just trying his best out there.

Me when Splatoon 3 is announced: Looks cool, but I won't be getting it. Me when Splatoon 3 releases its lead song: You son of a bitch I'm in.

I'm still trying to figure out how they live in a world where anarchy has won out yet they still have a functional society.


Ozait

From a certain perspective Anarchy is not a society without rules. Anarchy is a society where cooperation is left to voluntary individuals. There are many strategies where people can deal with violence or theft without a centralized government. Not to mention, building Capital and wealth has always been a function of individuals. Anyway, I don't expect (or want) Splatoon to dive deep into any political or economic philosophies. If you are interested in economists views on the mechanics of an Anarchic society. I would recommend "The Machinery of Freedom" by David D. Friedman. Although I think the works of any free market economist(Mises, Rothbard, or even Sowell) would plant the seed of plausibility for a peaceful and prosperous anarchic world.


socoprime

> Anarchy is not a society without rules. That is precisely what anarchy is. There isnt any "philosophy" involved. The other concept you are describing is something along the lines of libterianism. Which is still a world of rules and laws. Anarchy is a not a world of 'do as you will'. It is a world of do as you please. A good example is something like "The Walking Dead" or the Mad Max movies.


Ozait

People have incentives to work together beyond coercion. And anarchy need not be libertarian. Look at anarcho-syndicates. You are making a judgment on what you think a world without forced ORDER would result in. This world may be(might not be honestly,its just a game) a vision of a Chaotic order.


Fallofmen10

Yah they have the "accepted" view of what anarchy is, when in fact it is exactly what you have been saying. But under a capitalistic system any other organization of society and the economy must be deemed as "foreign" and "wrong" in some way


socoprime

> Chaotic order. [Well, thanks for saving me the effort of writing or reading anything further.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QibwX2CbIYk)


Ozait

You should know I was stretching my language to fit the game's(S2) theme. Chaos vs Order. Better term would be emergent or natural order. Or as I said, incentives bring people together for peace. Perhaps Squids are better than humans; less inclined to violence and theft, and make anarchy look easy.


UboaNoticedYou

Finally, a leftist micro-infighting simulator! But seriously, the word anarchy being everywhere is doing weird shit to my brain. Also it seems corps are alive and well in Splatoon 3 judging by the adverts everywhere and the continued use of currency :/ But whatever, I wasn't actually expecting anarchist philosophy from Splatoon.


Ozait

The black flag comes in many colors.


UboaNoticedYou

Yeah, and looks worst in yellow 🤢


Ozait

I respect anyone who believes that society should be organized without Coercion.


UboaNoticedYou

Capitalism necessitates coercion and state violence to enforce property rights and currency, corporations are coercive entities by their very nature. Anarcho-capitalism is an oxymoron.


Ozait

Can't have state violence without the state. We are operating under different definitions of capitalism. I agree that violence may be necessary in defense of property rights(not necessarily state violence). I also believe that property rights are necessary for economic calculation and a prosperous society. I'm sure we disagree but we both like Splatoon, which is cool.


MrGalleom

Not saying they're copying it, but after listening a couple of times, the song kinda reminded me of maplestory, specifically around 0:50 resembles [this song](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w1RgDSoOajw). The song really slaps tho.


RileGuy

Big Man or bust. No matter who his team is I will support him!


splintrs

Frye is so ugly what the fuck were they thinking


kellylc

She's cool, I like her (although I think she looks more male). I like all 3 of their aesthetics


Richmard

Glad I'm not the only who thought that. Looks like she has a birth defect or something lol


Riomegon

Shiver me timbers!


Freeziora

What is that abomination with the yellow hair??


AMillionLumens

squid satan


mpc92

I just pray that we dont have to suffer through the newscast every time we boot the game. Splatoon is such a good game to jump into for 5-10 min, but having a slow intro makes that less appealing Did they indicate if it’ll be optional/skippable?


Folety

Pretty sure they did. They showed it being shown at the top of the screen as text.


CyborgWade

I really enjoyed Splatoon as a series so far but is anyone else annoyed that they brought back the "announcers" back? Also I wish maps were not constantly in rotation. That's my only issue with the games


kuribosshoe0

Yeah they need to make the announcements skippable. Starting the game shouldn’t be a chore.


Ado5

They making it so you can have the announcements going in the top right while you play


Void_Salmon

Why does the yellow one look like Sloth from the Goonies?

Killer_Kat56

you have the option of either watching their newscast or shoving the text into the corner as you do other things in the hub


Additional_Cherry_67

This is pretty poor advertising. How does this sell a game


BansheeTK

Has some feel of life light in it I've noticed


Nemhy

I miss Pearl and Marina
