NOT TO BE A BITCH ABOUT SPLATOON RAIDERS AGAIN BUT!

i was watching streams of it i was trying to give it a fair shot to try to take in everything. How can I be so loudly opposed to it if I don't even know whats in the game? however the streamer mentioned there were interviews so I took a look. I am here now to show you a passage that made my jaw fucking drop.

im honestly fucking speechless. players felt too bad about the colonialism in this context so they revamped it aesthetically to justify the colonialism by making it more 'wild' and 'dirty' and ''undeveloped'' Jesus fucking christ

doesnt help that the interview also says both about the concept art and the final game that the islands are 'uninhabited' and 'Infested with salmonids'. be so fucking for real right now.

YOU DIDNT HAVE TO MAKE THEM SALMONIDS. IN SIDE ORDER THEY WERE FINE MAKING BASICALLY COPYCATS OF SALMONIDS MECHANICALLY!! OR GET THIS: YOU DIDNT HAVE TO USE NATIVE CULTURES TO CODE THEM AS "LESS HUMAN" IN THE FIRST PLACE!!

if you like this game its ok. Like it IS just a game. but for the love of god Think about the themes and motivations and biases that exist in art ok. OK. repeat after me . 'Treasure hunting' is not a neutral concept. 'Untamed wilderness' is not a neutral concept. 'Savages' are NOT a neutral concept.

here is the full interview . https://www.nintendo.com/en-gb/News/2026/July/Ask-the-Developer-Vol-22-Splatoon-Raiders-Chapter-2-3143587.html

My piece for @giantrobotstore ‘s annual Neko Show! I Forgot to post this one on Tumblr, OOPS! This cat is made entirely of scraps. I have been doing some form of textile art for most of my life and have acquired tons of odds and ends throughout the years. These scraps work really well for chunky needlepoint projects! I’m trying to use them up. He has already found a home but I wanted to show him anyways. Thank you @cassloop for the invite!
