Stay on topic guys.
As far as I know, most headgear conforms to your team color. These headphones seem within the spectrum that falls under that category.Those headphones are nice, really nice wish they in a different color though.
Hope so I liked the studio headphones but hated how they always stayed Gary.As far as I know, most headgear conforms to your team color. These headphones seem within the spectrum that falls under that category.

I couldn't help myself and I'm not sorry.

Don't get me wrong, it looks amazing- and I am sure everyone would agree with me. It is just the implications that it gives some people. I hope we get even more actual DLC gear like we probably will for stages after the on-disc stuff trickles out.People are probably gonna give me **** for it, but I kinda really like the headdress, I would rock the hell out of it if it even has a half decent ability. I'd say that's the one thing I'm most excited for though, everything else is okay, but didn't really get me as excited tbh
Exactly. As much as I love it, and think it looks awesome, there are people that would disagree with it being in game for obvious reasons. That, which is also totally understandable. But I do hope new gear comes along in DLC as well as you said, the new maps that we've seen coming out and the new weapons we have little ideas about from leaks and all that both look amazing and I'm very excited for them. I just think new gear would be phenominal and an awesome addition as well.Don't get me wrong, it looks amazing- and I am sure everyone would agree with me.

Well we do know two gear sets coming out as true DLC in August.Exactly.

I heard about that, do we know which gear sets they are? Like, have they been leaked? Sorry, I'm fairly new to the forums and everything so I'm not as aware of all of this as most are hahaaWell we do know two gear sets coming out as true DLC in August.
The Ika Musame costume and the costume from the Japanese design contest (The octopus sushi chef) that I think are coming in August.I heard about that, do we know which gear sets they are?

Their culture has nothing to do with my or anyone else's. If they want to police other Native American on whether they can wear a hat or not they can. However, I'm not a part of their culture. So I will wear a hat if I want.Native American headdresses are pretty sacred in their culture and you have to earn your right to wear one. It's not a fashion accessory and shouldn't be treated like one, it's a fairly major topic right now.
But...it doesn't hurt anyone.I've got one last post to make re: cultural appropriation and why the headdress is a bad choice then I'll bow out and if anyone wants more clarification feel free to PM me.
To maybe explain what cultural appropriation is and why it sucks here's a comparison. Let's say a kid in the middle of China hears about this really cool thing the US does, a flag burning ceremony to retire their flag! Super cool! So they go out and order a brand new US flag, dunk it in gasoline, and toss it on a campfire. Wow, it flamed up really huge! No wonder this is something the US does, that's so cool!
Of course anyone who knows ANYTHING about the actual US flag burning ceremony would be horrified, you only do this with flags at the end of their life and you cut it into strips and burn them one stripe at a time and there's no gasoline. It's to honor the flag not to see something burn, this kid missed the entire point.
Now this kid in China didn't know this either through lack of research/talking to people from the culture or being young and not knowing any better, but it doesn't make it not pretty offensive to the actual culture it affects. This Chinese kid isn't a terrible awful person, they're just ignorant, however if someone tells them they're doing it wrong and what they're doing is actually pretty terrible and disrespectful to Americans they shouldn't respond with 'WELL IT'S NO BIG DEAL IT'S JUST A PIECE OF CLOTH IT'S NOT LIKE IT EVEN HURTS ANYONE QUIT THROWING A TANTRUM'.
But that is basically what's happening.
I recommend considering taking a sociology class if you really think pop culture and media have no effect on how people are perceived and what roles they believe they fulfill and the class is interesting. I think the American Flag analogy was simply to put it in similar light, but it isn't the best metaphor. I believe the person who first mentioned it on this thread was simply just expressing their feelings and trying to bring to light some of the specific connotations that article of clothing holds for that culture. Don't get me wrong, I think it looks really cool and it'd be interesting to see more ethnic or off the wall clothing choices in Splatoon, but I do understand where people are coming from. It is a very strange choice by itself for the world of Splatoon- I know American Cowboy lore used to have a bit of a following in Japan, is that why?*snip*
Maybe Nintendo is making a DLC singleplayer campaign, and you're gonna have a different outfit. I remember in an interview one of the Splatoon devs said that there weren't any plans to make any other amiibo pre-release so I don't think that's it.Shoes:
The first one is MSN001-003, which is Mission which is Octo Valley, but IDK why they're different or why there's 3 :\ They don't even have text entries
The actual shoes you get are MSN000 - Hero Runner Replicas
They're all unfinished and have the same default thing :\ 0 coins, 0 rarity, Bomb Range Up and one empty slot. I was working on making a list for all the brands tho.Oh I've also been wondering, do we know what the main abilities/brand of these unreleased gears are?
