The Splatoon 3 Inkspedition: Hammerhead Bridge

[@Alphastar716]

Why do things have to be this way...

[@Eli_Isaac_gaming]

I like this story and I want to know what happens next and AM FIRST PERSON replying to you

[@Lilac_Amethyst]

[@ShadowWolfie19]

Please spare Dave He didn't no wrong 😭😭😭

[@BooTube5]

I know why... it's because OF THE LOORRREE

Are you sure the Inkspedition team got the right map? This isn't Hammerhead Bridge, this is Straight Line the Road

[@Alphastar716]

Unfortunately, sad as it is, this is Hammerhead Bridge. 😔

[@leolen8029]

The lore... THE LORE!!!

[@nelsonlopez9559]

Next episode of the Inkspedition: The boss finds out he's nothing more than an Alter-Ego, same with Billy and proceeds to have a mental breakdown.

[@TreblePhoenix]

Or Dave... well... you know....

[@Lilac_Amethyst]

I swear if that’s the case I’ll be crying for 5 days :(

[@Alphastar716]

Which may be the exact thing I'm trying to prevent...

NOW HOLD ON TIGHT YALL, THIS GONNA BE A BUMPY RIDE

[@BooTube5]

yesss More LORE! Also great video alpha, I love the storytelling thus far! I can't wait for more Lore Summary Time! (spoilers for the video below) [0:18] Alpha uses his powers to see from the perspective of the host to see where they are [0:29]We learn that body swapping takes up much energy and alpha can just look through others' eyes as well as control them [0:49] and [3:30] It seems like exposure to even a small trace of the sanitized sludge leads to health decrease and side effects to those created from it. [3:46] Alpha is observing through the body of the host. as proven by his eye colour at [3:54] [3:59] We see the side effects of looking through those created by the sludge's eyes for too long (and probably Body swapping too) [6:09] "Those Two remind me of them" Probably referring to billy, host and splatlocke [6:22] "I have to handle this alone, it's better this way" I'm not sure how to interpret this but I'm putting it in anyway :P [8:28] We can see alpha Using the host's body (as proven by the eye colour, and alpha almost saying NILS statue which only he knows the name of) to try and sway Travis and Dave away from the statue [9:16] Alpha runs out of energy from body swapping [9:26] "I have to talk them out of it. for them, for us" [9:32[ "what did they end up doing while i was out" Alpha can rewind through those created by the sludge's memories? [9:52] "He has no clue what damage telling him will do" [9:59] alpha is plotting to... you know... Dave to stop him from notifying the others [10:02] Dave finally finds out the truth You can thank me later (/hj)

[@mollylarsen9812]

Thank you

[@Alphastar716]

Pretty good summary 👀

[@eldritchcupcakes3195]

He also loses the host’s inflection for a bit at 8:28

[@eldritchcupcakes3195]

I wonder if the energy loss builds up

[@prestonandtom9337]

The way Alpha talks in some of these videos, I feel like he would be a perfect Disney villain.

[@Swi.fti.e_forever]

FRRRR

[@nelsonlopez9559]

1:24 Bros intrusive thoughts literally took over in 0.5 seconds. *He has no control*

[@Alphastar716]

The Host of the Inkspedition's empathy stat is already in the negatives so of course he doesn't lol.

[@TopazTiger975]

Oh boy, things aren't looking good for Dave... The lore is getting more and more intense. Hammerhead Bridge, the hallway to secrets. (Get it? I'll take my leave now...) Amazing video as always Alpha! 🐯

[@Romm.o]

8:29 the eye color change is such a good detail😭

[@TheNebulaKnight399]

Hammerhead Bridge? No,. Hammerhead Hallway? Yes.

[@zinedineghafar8156]

Honestly imagine being a worker on a map and just seeing teenagers shootings toy guns that have the same affect of a bullet acting like there playing call of duty💀

[@Alphastar716]

...for the 2nd time. First before it was finished with construction and now after it was finished with construction. x)

[@Lucario251]

The lore, the storytelling, the characters, can wait to see what you have up your sleeve alpha! Keep up the good work!

[@VaskoGames]

Always love these

[@BooTube5]

Me too

Me three

[@Alphastar716]

Glad to hear it! 😅

[@HomiesDomainGaming]

Inkspedition man gonna have words when Bluefin Depot comes to S3

[@TriColor-kf2rk]

The alpha lore is real (the fact the finished product is better is wild thoughts)

[@djcalvin15]

BYE MY SIMPLE HEADED MIND CANT FUNCTION ALL THIS LORE AND INFORMATION HEEEELP 😭😭

[@Enrique-q1z]

With his awful past still in the back of his mind, he is trying to protect what he went through. This is overtaking him and persuading him to do things he wouldn’t actually want to do- like threatening to kill someone. The thing is, is letting Billy and The Inkspedition Guy know the truth so bad that you are willing to threaten someone? I need to know what happens next. This should have been an anime or something. Alpha you are doing a great job.

[@used_to_be_gachaedits]

Getting my popcorn for this lore rn

[@Lilac_Amethyst]

New Inkspedition, more lore, that means more chances of me crying because I’m very emotional (thanks a lot mom) Anyway great video Alpha 👍

[@Alphastar716]

Thanks! And dw there's no need to cry...yet

[@Scorbunzx]

I recommend visiting bluefin Depot while you’re in the area.

[@Alphastar716]

I definitely wanna check out either robo rom-en or bluefin next!

Dave's life is in his hands...

[@BunnyShroomi]

Although the choices of the map layout for Hammerhead is questionable, I do love the Octo Expansion references sm!

[@fate7418]

LORE!!!!! GOSH I am sorry but I am WAY TOO EXCITED FOR LORE!!! Always loved storytelling and lore when it came to any game and Splatoon lore? Heck I didn’t think I’d see much here! But this is getting GOOOOD… oh wow… though it’s so interesting, Alpha’s eyes turn purple when he’s looking into the eyes of his… clones? Organisms? Hmmm… I’m not sure what to call them… I suppose his alter egos possibly? It’s difficult to say but… Alpha threatening someone’s life? This must be serious… Hmm… ya know maybe I’m glad I watched this two weeks late- I won’t be waiting as long for more lore 😂😂😂

[@ghostlybeannie]

*CEASE THE RESEARCH DAVE! YOU'RE MAKING A MISTAKE.* *THIS WILL BE BAD FOR EVERYONE. IT'S NOT WORTH THE RISK.* *YOU HAVE NO IDEA WHAT YOU'RE DOING.* *THIS IS SOMETHING YOU CAN'T EVEN FATHOM, AND IF YOU CONTINUE THIS, IT WILL NOT END WELL.* *I SAY THIS FOR THE SAKE OF YOU, ALPHA, AND THE HOST OF THE INKSPEDITION.* *CEASE.* *THE.* *RESEARCH.* Ugh, who am I kidding. He's gone way to far, there's no stopping his commitment. But the may also be no stopping *Alpha* . . . Despite his showing of weakness, Alpha is an individual with dangerous capabilities, and the determination to stop Dave, *no matter the cost.* Curiosity killed the cat. And it's going to kill Dave as well . . .

[@Alphastar716]

The unstoppable force meets the supernatural unbreakable wall.

[@j.corbygaming]

The lore runs deep here

The end has me questioning some things........ Nice video tho.

OHHHHH NOOOOO SOMEONES GONNA DIE TONIGHT also why did ink try to kill a jelly 😭

[@Amethyst0407]

I’d do the same thing to the jelly tbh

[@Alphastar716]

The intrusive thoughts got to him there. (I saw that while writing down stuff for this map and the hanging jellyfish was just too funny LOL!)

[@jaidaloo4041]

The drama... the LORE... Ready for weird, probably incorrect *joke* theories? No? TOO BAD- 1. Our main character, Alpha himself, will become a sort of villain/a villain that thinks they're doing the right thing. One of those villains who are like 'YoU sHoUlDnT hAvE fOuNd OuT, yOu BrOuGhT tHiS uPoN yOuRsElF, tImE tO uNlEaSh My FiNaL fOrM'. A villain that thinks he's doing the right thing. 2. Alpha wins, Dave dies and no one ever finds out (until the next curious coworker comes and the cycle repeats) 3. They all find out but are okay with it. "yeah i know im a clone of someone else but thats okay at least i have life" 4. The Alpha Rebellion, where they drive Alpha into hiding, exile him from Inkadia, and the channel just gets deleted after an hour I am a SUCKER for lore. If there's any lore for something I like, you bet I know most (if not all) of it. PLEASE, I NEED MORE- if alphas so powerful with his possessing and all that why cant he just brainwash em all (joke)
