now, i KNOW people are sooo horny for prince sidon. and i *guess* i get it? but my standout interactions with him were

him repeatedly interrupting me as i'm sneaking & battling desperately upstream through the rain towards zora's domain, to remind me that he's there, watching, not helping me, being unceasingly chipper

him giving me inadequate instructions to prepare for the attack on vah ruta, leading to me having no idea what the deal with the giant ice cubes is or how to handle them, resulting in me immediately getting hit by said cubes. at which point he contemptuously shouted "GET A GRIP, LINK" at me.

#keeping it fun and funky fresh #personal #matty plays #when he told me to get a grip i was like OHHH FUCK THIS GUY FOR REAL #i ended up using like SIXTY ARROWS that you DIDN'T LEAD ME TO EXPECT TO NEED #literally every single normal arrow i had in my stash plus like ten ice arrows ($$!)#i'm SO MAD about the game design choices that led to vah ruta being it seems like almost invariably the first divine beast you do #when the approach is SO hard & frustrating #like. the main quest immediately sends you to kakariko village. while there you overhear ppl talking about the fairy fountain #you go find the fairy fountain. if you go PAST the fairy fountain the ravine opens up into a valley/new map territory #the sheikah tower is immediately visible from the opening of that ravine. it's not too hard to get to #you get there. there's a zora who tells you to go see prince sidon RIGHT AWAY HE'S RIGHT DOWN THERE GO NOW #(the nearest shrine also has another zora who says the same thing)#you can glide right over to where sidon is. he jumps over and says YOU HAVE TO HELP ME *URGENTLY* THE WHOLE REALM WILL FLOOD #as opposed to getting to like. any of the other divine beasts. which are on the other corners of the continent #and protected by serious ambient environmental hazards #and are just like. ''oh this is scary/inconvenient/might threaten us At Some Point''#the game is very much like You Should Do Ruta First (both structurally & narratively)#and then Oops Ruta Is Very Hard Aah Eto Bleh 🧊🧊🧊💥💀#anyways i am a sidon hater SORRY! he is a thoughtless jerk!!#(i am also a hater of daruk & revali bc they were SO unsupportive of zelda) (but they are dead now so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯)#((i AM an urbosa/zelda shipper shhhh))
