Damn I Really Should Try And Write Down This Really Cool Salmonid Based Campaign Idea I've Been Cooking

damn i really should try and write down this really cool salmonid based campaign idea i've been cooking in my head for some time like please nintendo give us salmon people not salmon enemies

Splatoon salmonid rambles

Hi ok so big run (grand run?) just passed like yesterday or something and I had the most sickening idea for splatoon 4

I want the story mode to give salmonid lore. I want them to be treated like people. They are a society. They are conscious. They ARE people. But in the games they’re literally just “kill as many of those guys as u can and give me their eggs pls 🐻” which is fine I guess but…they canonically are people. They have culture and beliefs and traditions and music (the music that plays during Salmon Run is made by an in universe band called omega-3 (except the word “omega” is a symbol, probably the Omega symbol but I’m stupid so I wouldn’t know) like they are literally People.

And u might be asking urself “bee wtf does this have to do with a potential story mode for splatoon 4” and to that I say

The total amount of golden eggs gathered during this past Big Run was

1,535,611,351

(For anyone who struggles figuring out how much a big number actually Is, it’s Over one billion and a half. Lotsa eggs)

And I’m very proud of the community for getting that many! That’s really incredibly impressive!! Especially considering how the original quota was 700,000,000 (seven hundred million, also a very big number, but considerably smaller.)

What I want from the story mode of splatoon 4 is the ramifications of this. I want the salmonids to be allies. I want to see their societies, learn about them. I want them to be CHARACTERS, not just ENEMIES.

I think an interesting way to do this would be to have Grizzco be at the center of the evil happenings..again. But this time under the iron fist (paw) of Lil’ Judd. Because if u pay attention to detail, there are some things that possibly imply that Lil’ Judd is running Grizzco while Mr.Grizz is in space. Maybe Lil’ Judd, fueled by his superiority complex, tries to do what Mr.Grizz couldn’t, or maybe something even worse. Maybe Lil’ Judd doesn’t even care about mammals and inkfish and salmonids, he just wants to rule everything, have everlasting control. He doesn’t want to keep living in Judd’s shadow.

Anyways yeah I’ll stop rambling now. Sorry if this makes no sense lmao

every time someone makes a post about how Salmonid are brutes and animals I die a little on the inside. when the fanbase has no media literacy

LET THEM PARTY

THEY DESERVE TO CELEBRATE TOO EVEN AFTER WE MURDERED OVER A BILLION OF THEM DURING THE RUN

Grand run is over, why are they still here!?

shoving popcorn down my throat like a madman

Oh god. Oh god, I just realized something.

I remembered a certain quote from Mr. Grizz during ROTM:

He wanted to return to the past.

We just gave Mr. Grizz exactly what he wanted.

In the end, he won.

AND WE HELPED HIM WIN.

(EDIT: Please read the text below the cut, there is some important info I would like to share with you all.)

Okay, I'm editing this part in because I think I should make this 100% clear: This wasn't made because I'm salty. In actuality, I've accepted that I lost. Whatever the future holds for the Splatoon series, I'm cool with it.

I just made this post bc I felt like a conspiracy theory was cookin' in my brain, and I just wanted to share it with everyone else.

Sorry if this came off as a salty post, that wasn't the intention. Trust me, the salt shaker's empty and I am NOT refilling it.

I won my first 100x today, so to celebrate, I decided to draw my teammates. Shoutout to ACE, Peachy, and *SplaTre3*! You guys rule!!

EATS UP LIKE A RAVENOUS DOG
