i started replaying totk recently, i say replaying bc i did buy and play it when it was first released but dropped it after a couple days bc i was busy w stuff. and so i'm doing a lot of things now for the first time and obv i can't help comparing it to botw and it's genuinely got me so upset how link has been forgotten by so many people, all the people he helped in botw all the quests he did are just meaningless, all my registered horses were carried over but they couldn't keep the character interactions? all the champions are mentioned once with the exception of mipha there's no memories or divine beasts. the zora who had remembered link for 100 years had forgotten him since botw how is that possible. i had to make an ugly house near tarrey town to hang my weapons bc the hateno house was no longer mine 😭😭😭 somehow it made the game feel lonelier, even though botw was more empty there was much emotion in it.

it's not that i hated totk i liked exploring and finding new outfits, the dragons, rediscovering my favourite places etc but idk i was genuinely tearing up thinking about the champions being forgotten and all of link's previous sacrifices meaning nothing. sorry to send these random messages i don't follow anyone else who still blogs about zelda 😭😭

No, I know exactly what you mean! 😢 Honestly (lol can't remember if I've already said this before or not, so maybe I'm re-ranting here, but) my personal take is that totk shouldn't have been a sequel game, especially because Nintendo doesn't like to concern themselves with the continuity between games that a direct sequel like this just needs. With some tweaking/set up/rewriting, totk could have worked as a stand-alone story, and then they wouldn't have had to take away from what botw achieved in the name of making it more approachable to new players.

And yeah, I didn't hate it either! I liked the gameplay and the weapons system and the feeling of stakes whenever you entered a new town and saw how things had all gone to shit. Loved the wells. I just think it was too eager to pretend botw didn't exist while at the same time leaning on it so heavily that it would fall to pieces if you tried to extract the botw out of it :P

#I think there's something about how nintendo likes to connect the games via ''easter eggs'' rather than actual lore?#it's an idea i might poke at sometime #like #hey this spring is modeled after the skyward sword spring literally thousands of years ago!#how? don't worry about it :)#it's a callback #it's a surface-level connection #i guess the longer this series goes on for and the more crumbs of possibility they drop without actually giving you the cake #the more i start to wish for something more #especially when you see what other lower budget games can achieve these days #step it up i guess? i don't know :P #totk negative #lol sorry #the more time passes the more i have #frustrations

As Goncharov's been getting more popular lately, a lot of people have been saying "it all started because of a stupid pair of boots" and like, yeah, they're right. Goncharov stealing the boots in St. Petersburg as a kid was the start of his life in crime. And, sure, the first pair he stole was out of necessity, but the second pair definitely wasn't. Nor the third pair, and then the suits and so on.

Godfather 2 echoed this perfectly, with Vito accidentally growing into the Don role. First out of necessity, but then he kept going because he realized he was pretty darn good at it.

#goncharov #I mean that's why they casted de Niro in the godfather 2 in the first place #It's a callback #robert de niro

Loved, loved and will continue to love Deadpool vs Wolverine.

But why the fuck they didn't have My Heart Will Go On during that final scene will forever paddle me.

#it's a callback #and so appropriate for two men that are essentially immortal #someone dropped the ball imo

It's been 7 long years.

The final season of Percy Jackson and the Olympians has just begun to release.

The Ares and Apollo cabins are in a dispute over ownership for the flying chariot.

The counselors sit around a table in the Big House.

Percy has just learned that he's (probably) gonna die in the next month, when Clarisse and Michael begin to bicker. Percy has had it up to here.

He starts clapping rhythmically. There is a lull in the room as they stare at him.

He claps faster.

"Oh golly, the road's getting bumpy, cause I've got me some friends who just can't get along-"

tsum events really are just the best, huh

#art #twisted wonderland #twisted wonderland spoilers #tsumsted wonderland #to be fair this is from mal's card story so it's more...event-adjacent #i-it still counts right #poor malleus tsum is having such a time #first it blows up the kitchen and then it almost gets spin-cycle'd to tsum-death #the poor little guy just wanted to help with the party! it was trying its BEST 😭#and instead it accidentally recreated every other tuesday from my college days #i am so genuinely delighted to read two entire chapters of malleus bragging about knowing how to use household appliances #(he knows what he's doing! he READ the MANUAL)#(you know that manual has copious notes covering the margins in perfect copperplate)#and the callback to his dorm ssr story. perfect.#we all knew this was going to end in malleus punching a washing machine into smithereens #i'm disappointed that the next part is probably just going to be a fun party or whatever #and not malleus showing off how close he is to finally mastering the toaster #twst please where is my spinoff game where we have to help a dragon fae prince learn how to do household tasks #i have an indescribable need to see malleus attempt to use a vacuum #he is very enthusiastic and also very stupid and we love him for it
