#it's basically just me transcribing all the conversations I've had in the past two weeks

[nochi-quinn]

me running up to purah to tell her everything that just happened inside the castle:

me inside the deku tree: I set this bitch on fire once

in the shortonegaming lp of Tunic jake said "when I'm doing well it's me and when I'm doing poorly it's the fox" and I have never been so called out in my entire life

I feel like if the set bonus for the Depths Armor is Gloom Attack Resist maybe it should Resist Gloom Attacks

doing the dragon tears kind of ruins the entire plot of the game tbh. "what happened to zelda?" dragon "where is she?" sky

I did however cry during the master sword stuff. my partner has Emotions about Fi and apparently that shit's contagious.

also just. zelda. I choose to believe a little piece of her is still inside the sword. just hanging out with fi.

I have completely avoided Kohga. I hate him and I refuse to engage with him. I hope he sits down there and dies of boredom. but not before he throws a tantrum and rips his footie pajamas.

me: this music is kinda Nier partner: it's not far off me: me:

I farmed 947 lynels to get the parts for the Fierce Deity Armor and now I will identify as A Problem for the rest of the game

my win condition rn is fully upgraded armor, pristine zora spear + silver lynel horn, and water.

I am somehow in the endgame now?? I literally just have to go beat up matthew mercer

("loot him! take his vest!")

mineru's flashback to rauru's sacrifice also made me cry a lil. like we Knew what happened, bc [gestures at link's arm], but Seeing it was different.

also props to the animators/character designers for making the zonais' expressions so evocative while still being very inhuman. i don't know if that makes any sense bc I am very tired, but Rauru going from "looks like a cinnamon roll" to "but would actually kill you" in nothing flat was Nice.

did NOT enjoy anything about getting her construct, literally just autobuilt one of the Long Bridges I made in the fire temple and used them for every single puzzle.

I have limited brain cells and way too much zonaite let's gooooo

tears of the kingdom thoughts from my notes app:

riju stop throwing your face at gibdos so I can tell you to electrocute the gibdos

while we're on the subject, FUCK gibdos

people in hyrule are really bad at giving meaningful puzzle hints

duct-tape two swords together call that a swordsword

deeply enjoy tulin's little WHOO-HOO when he uses gust

I actually enjoy tulin in general, but I might just not be immune to cristina vee

can't believe nintendo made a $70 physics puzzler

me every time the 7:00 bell rings: time for bingo

I've beaten two temple bosses so far and they're a dichotomy of boss design: queen gibdo: presence is foreshadowed, there's a preliminary version of her fight to introduce her mechanics, fight gimmick involves strategies we've already been taught (except for the light thing, but that's whatever), companion ability is essential colgera: comes out of fucking nowhere, sudden enforced aerial combat, no indication of fight gimmick mechanics beforehand, companion ability is like a literal fart in the wind

like I don't have a real PROBLEM with either of them, I beat them eventually, but if I hadn't already been using a guide* I would NOT have known how to beat colgera

*I'm bad at puzzles, sue me
