I'm ashamed to say I never figured it out myself and I thought the intended way was just to tank though to the other side, at least I finished the story
Your thumbnail perfectly does the job of 1) Looking appealing 2) Not spoiling the final boss 3) For those who know the story still having something to look at. Great job
DUDE struggling on the flooder puzzle for literally an hour was the funniest thing to watch but also my brain cells were literally dying at the same time.
yeah, stunning flooders is arguably the most well hidden mechanic in the game prior to the required instance in the final gauntlet. It is mentioned once in the pacman inspired level, but only if you get cornered by flooders with the single weapon kit that has lil buddy as the sub. On the flip side, it is not the worst puzzle to exist, as the limited puzzle pieces do most of the work for you. Flooder kills buddy when thrown through or within range of the flooder's path, running through with invincibility frames is possible but unintended (prochara), and there are no other tools at the player's disposal. All that leaves is letting buddy attack the flooder, and any problems with the puzzle are a result of the player overthinking it or trying to brute force a wrong answer.
I am incredibly glad that i am not the only player whos been playing since the beginning of splat 1 get stuck on the flooder puzzle. I just damage boosted both times and it worked somehow.
12:10 tbh… same exact thing happened to me 💀 i shot the power eggs leading into the vent and didn’t notice the actual vent, when i looked up the solution i felt like a massive dumbass lmfao
I beat the hero mode like a day or two after the game came out, and i finished it and just sat there like "damn... so that's it?" idk why, it just felt like it was missing something. And then it hit me that this campaign was the end of the squidbeak splatoon era of campaigns.. AND THEN the credit song played, and i was finally like "y'know what, that was awesome" Definitely tied with octo expansion imo.. such a wonderful journey :) can't wait to see what the DLC brings!
This only without any emotional response, even realizing this was the end of this story... It never tries to be anything else than a silly joke so the only attachment I feel is out of nostalgia and not earned through compelling plot/gameplay
The only thing I think they could've improved on is the character development of Deep Cut and Octavio. I wish we got to see Deep Cut initially reluctant to joining your side before coming to trust you, and I really wish Octavio got more screen time throughout the campaign. Otherwise though, it was excellent! Gameplay-wise, the campaign was phenomenal, I loved finally seeing and fighting Grizz, and all the new lore provided through the world design, logs, and scrolls was great!
the issue with the story mode in this game is it tells where to go but never tells you how to get there. With the flooder part, I was stuck for a solid 10 mins before looking up a walkthrough. they treated it like octo expansion without any cannon octolings. imo, the best story mode in the series, 8.5 for me :) loved the squid sisters' cameo and giving backstory to the deep cut. the credits were so cute. missed out with shooting in them though. I love to see DUDE have fun!
The fact it took me 3-4 days to 100% complete the story mode but for dude... I guess he decided to begin later I guess. He's not too far behind. And on top of that the fact he's REALLY good with performing movements in this game gave him the advantage. But anyway I'll just say congrats on finishing the story mode and I bet you enjoyed it as much as we all did. :)
Not so fun fact. That shape that little buddy took while fighting grizz is what salmon look like while they're getting ready to mate. So during the fight little buddy is bricked up for the whole thing
I may not have played Splatoon 1 and 2, but I really will miss the Squid Sisters being in the hero modes seeing how Splatoon 3 marks the end of the Squidbeak Splatoon Saga. It's as if they know it's the end of their saga and they're waving goodbye to everyone who's been with them throughout all 3 games
They really should have made a level where you were forced to learn the flooder trick. As far as I know there is one level where marie mentions it, but you can skip along without learning it.
For 12:10, I had the opposite problem. I got my equipment, but I didn't see the vent because that room is really dark. Edit: I do NOT remember seeing those power eggs. Did they add them in a patch or am I an idiot xD
to be fair about the flooder thing, literally there's only one place it tells you what to do where only one weapon option has little buddy, if you dont do that specific level a specific way there's nothing to clue you in
This isn't one of those times, but sometimes I wonder if I already watched the stream where your videos come from until I see my name in the chat, haha.
I personally enjoyed the story also as I believe it is the best base story the franchise has told to date. I also failed the final phase first time going as I did not know I was supposed to drive it, ha ha. I said the same thing when the little buddy started mega evolving by the Three mix song of calamari intration.
The funniest part was Chat was actively telling each other not to tell him how to get past the flooded lmao
Timestamp for the curious: 7:01
and yet not 1 person said a thing lol
@@PotionMaster21 One did

The only way to find out is on the Pac-Man level, Callie tells you how to get past the flooders

Thanks for that!
43:23 that grizzco laugh tho?? I wish we saw him more as a badass villan bc holy shit

Well I was too. Kinda. So cut some slack
Alterna Rocket 1 is a litmus test for who did and didn't do that one Pac-Man level lmao
@@falsetto6455 Take a bath, squiddo. Most people just ran around the flooders without tossing things.
@@falsetto6455I did that level and I was STILL CONFUSED
29:44 Can we all just take a moment to consider that the timing for that subscription was absolutely PERFECT for that exact moment?
yeah i was thinking that too lmaoo
I legit thought that was the in game song
I remember that in stream, I came in clutch LMAO
Splatoon 3 story mode was very fun, can’t wait to see what the dlc bring us

I lts strange how nobody ever notices the dialogue explaining why deep cut wants to steal things. It’s super heartwarming
"You gotta finish the Big Man divorce sidequest first" -Some guy in chat
it’s so funny watching him be worse than me in story mode
damn it sucks dude couldnt enjoy Hugefry. loved that transformation and it was definitely cute to me
"Keep helping chat, I cant see a word of what you're saying" ...he doesn't know
46:18 I said that because we basically killed our boss which means we're all fired from the company
Mr Grizz never returned to Earth, and although he longed for death he could never die. In time, Mr. Grizz stopped thinking
I am incredibly glad that i am not the only player whos been playing since the beginning of splat 1 get stuck on the flooder puzzle.
I just damage boosted both times and it worked somehow.
Dude's fashionably late to finishing the career mode
the music notification at 29:46 almost fits really well with Mr. Grizz’s theme
12:10 tbh… same exact thing happened to me 💀 i shot the power eggs leading into the vent and didn’t notice the actual vent, when i looked up the solution i felt like a massive dumbass lmfao
watching a pro player take the same Ls that i did in the story mode made me feel much better abt my splatoon skills for some reason.

The Music Outside the rocket is from Salmon Run „Happy Little Workers“ but a but slowed and distorded
Ngl I cried when the credits hit reminded me on how far the series has came 😭😭😭
Dude: keep helping chat!
Chat: *absolutely not telling him anything”
love seeing unedited DUDE
Oooooh always get chills when I see the game over animation, so.. WOAW, I love it

As soon as I got Splatoon 3, I beat the game in 15 lvls excluding bosses. I decided to speedrun the game. With no upgrades.

6:52
Had the exact same experience. Only what I did was run through and get to the other side. Never threw buddy at them.
29:44 omg that timing lmao.
I may not have played Splatoon 1 and 2, but I really will miss the Squid Sisters being in the hero modes seeing how Splatoon 3 marks the end of the Squidbeak Splatoon Saga.

it’s the pacman level, only if you use the kit with little buddy. so if you use another weapon you miss that smh
Thank you for nearly a full hour of entertainment to cheer me up on a bad day ❤
For 12:10, I had the opposite problem. I got my equipment, but I didn't see the vent because that room is really dark.
Edit: I do NOT remember seeing those power eggs. Did they add them in a patch or am I an idiot xD
They have always been there! Sorry.
same!!! i shot the eggs after equipping and turned around, further confusing myself
Y’know let me just reach the highest rank in the game before finishing the story
loved this video so much
dude is really good at the game and theres something really satisfying about his gameplay ‼️💕
Congrats beating story mode on Splatoon 3 Return of the Mammalians, DUDE! 🎉🎉
THIS IS BY FAR THE GREATEST HERO MODE EVER!!!! GG man
to be fair about the flooder thing, literally there's only one place it tells you what to do where only one weapon option has little buddy, if you dont do that specific level a specific way there's nothing to clue you in
45:14 - 45:29 Calamari Inkantation 3MIX ended *perfectly!*
46:21 is just perfecto.
The song of the Calamari Inkatation they use it everytime in the two previous game too.
Btw, probably someone commented about this. If not the Splatoon 3 Hero Shot does not have increased fire rate. It shoot double bullets.
It would be so funny if the final boss was just a average Joe 😂
Curious fun fact: The captain is the True DUDE and New agent 3 is his clone
That was incredible!
Could've said "Inkredible"
curse these games for always getting me weepy with the “thank you for playing” in the credits
There should be 3 boss fight where u face the whole cast idols idk just thought be cool
At the same tim3
while ur hands are tied behind ur back
Oh my goodness lol ya that and blidfolded
This isn't one of those times, but sometimes I wonder if I already watched the stream where your videos come from until I see my name in the chat, haha.

Dude, you've gotta listen to Anarchy Rainbow - AY! Edition, by Man on the Internet.
Its gold.
Gold Kettle time
I can just tell that at some point Dude will accidentally fall off the map
It's ok Dude, if it makes you feel better the 1st flooder in phase 1 took me 3 hours or so 💀

@@cloudeie no
@@imtherealfool3993 ok
Can't wait for the dlc
the phase music banging
I beat the game this morning, no joke like 2 hours ago
brooo i sooooo thought i was gunna get to do a shark riding section
38:12 😂😂😂😂😂😂😭
Y does Grizz have a zombie impression @ the beginning of the 🚀 battle?
Did u play the secret level?
I want to know is this really the last splatoon game? Thy said that this was the finalle of the saga
I bet u can’t tell me how Smallfry or Hugefry breathes in space.

AMONGUS
Ay
First
No more capitalism! 😂But we need the money for the gatcha machine and gear 🥲
Can't wait to see Dude destroy After Alterna 😁
The boss is fun without updates. 😀
