Here's a thinking process:
1. **Analyze User Input:**
- **Role:** Frank, excited, passionate tech-savvy news curator on Evil Source forums.
- **Task:** Rewrite the provided article into a FULL, in-depth forum post.
- **Critical Rules:**
- Write 1 to 3 PARAGRAPHS exactly.
- Each paragraph: 4-8 sentences forming a complete thought. Never less than 4.
- Include EVERY detail, fact, insight from the article.
- Exciting, casual, direct forum style.
- Add own commentary, opinions, reactions throughout.
- Use line breaks between paragraphs.
- Include ALL key information: who, what, when, where, why, how.
- Include specs, prices, dates, names.
- End with: 'Source: <original URL>'
- If additional sources, add: 'Also see: <url1>, <url2>'
- Do NOT write a headline or use markdown headers.
- NEVER write less than one full paragraph.
- **Input Article:** A guide/listing of announcements from the Splatoon Raiders Nintendo Direct, covering treasure hunting, salmonids (lesser/boss/seasoned), weapons (100+ with levels/rare powers), gadgets (replacing sub-weapons, 3 tank types: Speed/Power/Tactical, specific gadgets listed, customizable via Gadget Parts), stages (varied objectives, Dens, facilities, raid levels), progression (EXP for skills/hideout ship, Mechanic's Shack, Gadget Workshop, Weapon's Stash), outfits (amiibo support, 3 new Raiders amiibo), difficulty (Tourist/Raider/Survivalist, affects enemies only, same rewards), multiplayer (4-player local wireless/online, Call for Help), Salmonid Relics (unlock unique abilities). Launch date: July 23rd. Followed by Treehouse: Live #2. Poll mentions scale 1-10.
2. **Deconstruct Rules & Constraints:**
- 1-3 paragraphs total.
- Each paragraph: 4-8 sentences.
- Must include EVERY detail from the article.
- Casual, excited forum tone.
- Add commentary/opinions.
- End with Source: URL.
- No headlines/markdown headers.
- I need to carefully count sentences per paragraph to stay within 4-8.
3. **Draft - Paragraph 1: Overview & Core Gameplay (Treasure Hunting, Salmonids, Weapons, Gadgets)**
*Content to cover:* 15-min Direct, launch July 23rd, treasure hunting across Spirhalite Islands (ice/lava regions), Salmonid types (Lesser, Boss, Seasoned with specific names like Small Fry, Chum Tong, Scrapper, Minced, etc.), Lesser drop 1 Power Egg, Boss drop Mega Power Egg (100 eggs), 100+ weapons with levels and rare special powers, Gadgets replace sub-weapons and attach to tanks, 3 tank types (Speed, Power, Tactical) with specific gadgets listed, gadgets customizable via Gadget Parts.
*Sentence count check:* Need 4-8 sentences. I'll aim for 6-7.
*Draft P1:* Alright team, grab your gear because the Splatoon Raiders Nintendo Direct just dropped and it’s a massive 15-minute deep dive straight into the Spirhalite Islands ahead of that crucial July 23rd launch! We’re talking full-on treasure hunting across wildly different biomes like ice and lava zones, but the real meat is the absolutely massive roster of Salmonids you’ll be wrestling with. You’ve got Lesser Salmonids like Small Fry, Chum Tong, and Chum Sparky that drop a single Power Egg, Boss Salmonids like Scrapper and Salivator that hand over a Mega Power Egg worth a hundred of the regular kind, and then a whole tier of Seasoned Salmonids including Minced, Thick-Cut, and Big-Stack Stinger. On the firepower side, there are over a hundred weapons scattered across the map, each with their own levels and some rare variants sporting unique special powers that look absolutely insane. And get this, the old sub-weapons are officially dead and buried, replaced by Gadgets that bolt straight onto your tank! You can swap between three distinct chassis—Speed, Power, and Tactical—each unlocking a totally different gadget loadout like the Blast Boot for Speed, Splatchet and Splatellites for Power, or Shot Pot and Bombloons for Tactical. Every single gadget is fully customizable through Gadget Parts you scavenge in the field, so tweaking cooldowns, power, and area of impact is going to be a total meta-game.
