At least this makes the next sets of Tricolor stages a little less predictable, even if we got 6 stages left.

Davie Inferno @davieinferno.bsky.social · 1d

This is certainly something.
On one hand, I'm happy it's not just Brinewater Springs again on its own.
On the other hand, I thought it would've been Brinewater Springs and a different stage to go alongside it, not two completely different stages compared to last time.

Even more FREE content in the FREE demo? It's more likely than you think. 💫

In case you missed the news last month, Star Garden: The Trial will receive content updates over time! Release dates for each will be announced at a later time.

This evening, Israel’s government approved the first phase of a ceasefire deal, which a Hamas negotiator said came with U.S. guarantees that the war “has ended completely.”

Many Palestinians are celebrating that this genocide might finally be at the beginning of an end -- but what comes now?

Not exactly perfect but I think I did a pretty good job on this.

Screenshot of the vehicle customization in Sonic Racing Crossworlds showing the Beast Spike with greyish blue coloring on the main part of the body, black coloring on the side parts including the claws, with purple wheels.
The seat is also purple with a bit of light blue.
There are also decals in black on the front of the car. (better look will be in the 2nd image)

No way, giving your ID to big companies that always have the risk of getting data breaches is a bad idea???
Who would've guessed?! 🤯

Discord customer service data breach leaks user info and scanned photo IDs

An “unauthorized party” may have accessed the names of users, the last four digits of credit card numbers, and more.

Though one that is killing me is a gif calling Sage an "oc daughter."
Like no shit Sage is an OC, every character added to any franchise ever is an OC.

Davie Inferno @davieinferno.bsky.social · 21d

Like you can tell it's from people who don't have actual criticism of the media they're making these gifs of.
It's either just them actually going "thing bad, send the gifs" or doing it to get a reaction and be annoying about it.

Davie Inferno @davieinferno.bsky.social · 21d

I'm sure it's happened for other pieces of media, but I've mainly seen it for Super Paper Mario and Sonic Frontiers.
Now, I don't care if you dislike either of those games.
But the thing is seeing one or two of those gifs is fine, it's when it starts becoming more is when it gets annoying.

Davie Inferno @davieinferno.bsky.social · 21d

Low key wish there was a way to block specific gifs on Tenor because it gets annoying looking for something and you get tons of gifs by people who don't like something and rather spend their time making "playing [x] (it's bad)" instead of finding literally anything else.

I'm just hoping they have two Tricolor stages and don't just put Brinewater Springs as the only one since this is a returning theme.

#Splatoon #Splatoon3 #Splatoween
Welp, guess this is how they're gonna keep seasonal Splatfests going since those are the only ones they said wouldn't end without prior notice.
Zombie Vs. Skeleton Vs. Ghost is returning from October 24th - October 26th!

Twitter post from SplatoonJP showing the Splatoween Splatfest for this year happening next month.
The theme is the exact same as Splatoween 2023, Zombie Vs. Skeleton Vs. Ghost.

This technically counts as a Let's Play, just naming it differently.
Anyhoo, you know the drill, putting the playlist here since the first part is uploaded and will post it again when it's complete.

Replaying the Splatoon 2 Octo Expansion so I can do a better job of showcasing it than past me did back in 2018. I'll be playing every single level with ever...

For Switch 2 users, you can still get the Blue Star by selecting Nintendo Switch!
There will probably be an option for those who get the Switch 2 version later similar to Shadow Generations on Switch 2 having the Sonic Jam and Sonic Adventure skins downloadable as well.

Really good comeback to end off the night.

Did some testing with the new #MarioKartWorld update that's supposed to increase the chance of full lap tracks appearing in online.
10/15 times I've gotten full lap tracks to show up in the selection in at least one slot.
RNG varies, but it feels much better now.

Davie Inferno @davieinferno.bsky.social · 24d

Now with these out of the way, time to get back to uploading my usual Let's Play content for the time being.
Of course, if we get something like Splatoween next month, there will be a highlight video of that. (hopefully not too long after said event)

Davie Inferno @davieinferno.bsky.social · 24d

And here's a thread of the entire backlog of videos I uploaded throughout the month.
