#emulation is awesome

Something fun I did during my time away was... I finally played The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild!

Before I had only ever watched my brother play the game when it originally launched in 2017, but never had much of an interest to play it myself. After all the hype of Tears of the Kingdom upon its release back in May of 2023, I finally decided to give BotW a shot and I am so glad I did.

It definitely plays a lot different from classic 3D Zelda games, but it's a lot of fun. Main story felt weak having everything merely be flashbacks, but getting lost in the immersion while exploring the world was the highlight for me.

Cemu Emulator + Mods!

I played the Wii U version on PC via the Cemu emulator and installed a couple of mods throughout my playthrough. Mainly the Linkle mod and tried a few different music overhauls. Man, I wish Nintendo would just release PC ports. Modding games is so much fun haha. Makes the whole experience customizable and enjoyable.

Big fan of the Linkle mod. I know she's not an official Zelda character, more of a Koei Tecmo OC, but the mod is very cute. I appreciate how it affects NPCs and has them react to you being a girl, even goes as far as making her Link's sister for the story.

Co-op Mod

This game would've been an 11/10 if Nintendo officially made it 2-player co-op, so I could've played it with my brother with him as Link and me as Linkle. But it seems fan's have already got the co-op aspect down already haha. Very buggy, but playing with my bro as two Links was a blast!

Tears of the Kingdom

I did try Tears of the Kingdom too, but didn't get very far myself. I did see the entire game through my brother's playthrough and played his save a couple of times. Wasn't terribly impressed from my time with the game. Had some cool elements, but I think I prefer BotW more over TotK. Will have to give it another try sometime... maybe once the Linkle mod is out hahaha.

About your latest Zelda post. You can also emulate Zelda games if you don’t have access to a certain console or can’t afford old games. I played minish cap and wind waker hd entirely on my laptop. Of course if you don’t have access to a computer/laptop this is completely irrelevant but I feel obligated to mention it since it’s so easy and I love both Zelda games and game emulation

I did the same thing with minis cap!!! I totally forgot to mention it so thanks for bringing it up!!!

The first episode of Shogun has me walking away with one take:

Once again I am contractually obligated to tell everyone to play Ghost Trick:Phantom Detective. It's so good

unironically though a really fun interactive art gallery would be one with a bunch of contemporary art pieces where they ask you to recreate them

[dandyshucks]

literally every item except for the pkmn game 😭 which, I should be clear, i am very very grateful for fjkdkl i was actually not expecting to receive more than two or three things, and the frying pan will be immensely useful djdkdl but aough there is a certain disappointment to the game not being one of the gifts fjdjkl

Is it difficult for you to maintain your aesthetic choices? For me I’d like it if I had an “aesthetic” to my life, but eventually new things that don’t match get added in and I’m never able to maintain it for long

Ahh I love pink and cute and I try to surround myself with those kind of things, but there’s definitely stuff I own and enjoy that doesn’t fit that aesthetic! 🩷

I think what’s important is just surrounding yourself with things that make you happy! If it helps, maybe have shelves/sections of rooms dedicated to a certain thing/color/vibe to make it feel more cohesive to you? ☺️

You played AC4 and AC4A on an emulator? Mind if I ask where you got the games? I'm trying to get them for my modded PS3.

Well you know what they say on the websites... make sure you have a copy of the physical games first winky face

I just searched for ac 4/FA ps3 iso and checked some guides/notes (usually on reddit) and got it working 😂I imagine if you have a modded ps3, you could put those iso files onto a disc, but I never had a modded console so I don't know the details of how those work.

FA had some update files, as well, which I could apply with the software, but may be trickier for a console
