[News] Splatfest now on! - Splatoween (Splatoon 3)


Pick a team and splat it out!

Another splatfest is upon us. This Special Halloween Splatfest, about what you would rather be in a fantasy world, was announced on October 9th. The choices for this splatfest are, wizard, knight and ninja. As usual, this event runs for two full days (26th @ 1am - 27th @ 11:59am), with the tri colour battles starting on the second day. Just like last time Nintendo have made a lot of cool little changes to for this fest to really make it feel like a Halloween one. From the idols wearing outfits to additional Halloween themed music it really is a spooktastic fest.

The tri-colour stage this time is both Scorch Gorge and Mincemeat Metalworks. These are both stages we have had before but it's cool to not only see the return of the best tri-colour stage (Scorch Gorge) but also have two different maps at the same time. Mincemeat is an okay stage too but I know many will be hoping to come across Scorch Gorge more, myself included.

From looking at polls on Twitter and YouTube, I think it's safe to say wizard is the most popular. Wizard did win the wizard vs knight Splatfest in Splatoon 2 so it wouldn't be surprising for it to win again here despite the third option of ninja. I understand why it's seemingly the most picked though as I think it's the one that's the most interesting choice. 

Make sure to use your conch shells before the splatfest ends! Happy splatting!

That's it for this blog, stay connected!

[Thoughts] Will Tears of the Kingdom have DLC?

  DLC for Tears of the kingdom could happen but I don't think it's likely Source: Author's edit I want to start off by saying I do not think this game needs DLC at all, though it would be welcome. Breath of the Wild had an expansion pass with 3 waves of content. Looking at the contents of that could give us an idea about what a Tears of the Kingdom expansion pass could look like. The first wave (Expansion pass purchase bonus) was available at the games launch and included the following: - 3 new treasure chests This was a very small wave featuring 3 chests of goodies. The biggest thing from this was a Nintendo Switch shirt link could wear. It was a nice little extra to start the game off with but definitely not the defining content of the pass. Moving on, The second wave (DLC pack 1) offered a lot more in terms of content, with it offering these following things: - Trail of the Sword - Master mode - Heroes path mode.  This wave offered many things to test the players skill...

[Thoughts] Post Game Content Is Awesome!

Post game content is something I greatly  appreciate in games ~Intro ~ Many games over the years have included post game content, it's a way to give more content to players who really enjoyed their time with the main game and were left wanting a little more. Sometimes it is in the form of a few bonus missions, while other times epilogue stories can happen. I will now give some examples of good post game content and discuss what makes them good. ~Dark  Chronicle~ The post game for this game is quite big. After the main story you follow the main character on another small adventure to a place called the Zelmite Mine. This mysterious mine is huge, forming the biggest dungeon in the game by quite a bit. This Dungeon even has multiple mini bosses, one of which being fairly important to the narrative. While the dungeon does require a little bit of grinding to be able to get through it, it isn't too bad and I never found myself having...
