Extremely Same.

Yes hello everyone I am dead and this video has killed me

WORTH INFINITE AMOUNTS OF DOLLARS

When I saw that during the direct I literally screamed

 

[Agent Z]

Playable Octolings and a new campaign were just confirmed in an upcoming DLC... And of course, it costs $20.
It'd be one thing if the Octolings were free and the campaign was paid, but that's not the case.
I'll still pay for it regardless, but it'll definitely make the experience a little less enjoyable.

 

[Либра]

Two words: Octo hype.
I spent all my words on voice chat while watching the direct and after but I'm so happy this is finally becoming a thing. :D 20$ but I'll gladly pay up. They better give the boys a decent alternate hairstyle tho. But yay, Octo gear anyway! Octo missions. More lore. Give.

 

[Danku]

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHHAAH

IT'S BEEN OVER 2 YEARS
IT FINALLY HAPPENED
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

I'm h a p p y

 

[Flammie]

I'm happy because of this too.
But i'm also happy that nobody expected this at all, and plus the designs they have looked nothing like people have imagined, so no one can say "Called it", with 100% accuracy.
But still, the thrills of seeing this.

 

[Elecmaw]

The hype is real, the memes can die. Octolings are a comin'!

The 20$ price tag is pretty reasonable, of course it depends on how big the campaign will turn out to be. But judging from what I've seen it does look promising.

 

[Absolutely Absol]

I'm excited!!!1

Or is it just me or that playable Octolings look younger than enemy Octoling? I mean, look at their smaller tentacles (I guess they're for fitting headgears better than bulky tentacles). Also, black eye rings instead of purple.

Nintendo Offical Trailer link on their main youtube account.

Nice to see we are basically playing as Octoling Chell and wake up in Aperture Science Labs, which has somehow survived to the era of Splatoon.

Also Marina's going for an interesting look there.

(US$19.99 sounds good to me for so much content, time to dump money in the eShop!)

Hey, male Octo artwork!

 

[Dark Sage Walker]

Hehehe. I knew this was coming.

 

[Maave]

I saw screenshots before I saw the Direct and thought it was fake.

NOPE. IT'S REAL. GET HYPE.

Thanks for the pics @aceofscarabs. I saw the Tupac reference immediately but didn't get Pearl's outfit

 

[calamaro]

Im just happy to see Callie back, :D

 

[Green Waffles]

=[

Well, better to get a couple months with octolings than none at all ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Yeah yeah "you're ruingin the hype, gtfo"
I'll be in the Dead sea, salt thread if you need me.

 

[Clawford]

Someone with the octoling preorder gear post the abilities.

 

[Green Waffles]

@Clawford

Both are CuttleGear brand.

 

[J'Wiz]

What a nice reveal. I was actually pretty giddy when I saw it.

The DLC single player looks like it might have some difficulty to it, which is welcome to those who have spent too much time on the game. As for the $20 price tag....I DON'T CARE! MORE BABY SQUID OCTO GAME!

Also we're forgetting the most important thing about the trailer. The Octolings look pretty cute <3

 

[Padre]

This is fantastic news. Already waiting. :)

Im not too interested in the octolings but they do look way better than I expected them to. Anyway: Im happy for them who wanted octolings and Im happy for everyone who wanted Trigger Campfish back (I really can't stand the fact that camping was way too common in this map, I just hate it). I still hope for the other maps to return (Well, Flounder Hights doesn't have to in my opinion).
