I would prefer if they spread them out over the game as dungeon items, and focused on dungeon design like previous zelda games but they didn't do that so I understand the swap to banjo kazooie nuts and bolts.

Yea any issues remaining are really just botw problems that stuck around. The depths being too large for the content is arguable I guess.

The rune thing comes down to dungeon design and progression issues. I like the idea of them more but all of them are given 1 hour in so design suffers.

Dungeons are still too short though, and I think the powers from BOTW are more interesting than the vehicle building but I can see cutting them to focus on forcing more intended solutions because they were pretty wild with what you could do with them.

I think there is a significant amount of people posting online about video games that don't play video games. TOTK is definitely a better game it added alot of content density to the map, dungeons had better theming, bosses were better, fusing alleviated durability memes, and a bunch of other shit.

We all just walked in our own neighborhoods in big groups for hours. I think things really got broken with trunk or treat and people finding good trick or treat neighborhoods to go to instead of just walking their own.

My neighborhood is big candy so we get like 600 kids and it's impossible to drive on halloween from all the cars and kids.

Yea they drive them to different neighborhoods now to hit up areas that have better house density, and are known for handing out decent amounts of candy. If they dont see houses with decorations/lights they just drive by until they find areas that do and they park on your lawn to hit up houses.

I live in a designated trick or treat neighborhood where parents from other areas take kids to it and after last year lol lmao. Seeing lines of cars filled with kids that dont live in the area was such a turn off and I'm not buying hundreds of dollars in candy.

Had my quarterly review at my job today. Literally 0 negative feedback and just told to keep doing what I'm doing from everyone in the review chain. I should get a 2nd job.

Reminder to do the math on steam deals espec for games with dlc bundles. I saved $30 on a single game by buying the dlc bundles by max discount first and then grabbing the bigger all inclusive bundles that had lower discounts with stuff not in the better priced bundles.

My other uncle married a white immigrant and likes the same stuff but votes the opposite lmao.

Zast @zastbat.bsky.social · 19d

Crazy how my uncle that digs 40k, Dredd, and married a minority votes exactly how you would think.

Busch gardens rides are really cool but the park is super sad. The food is the worst I've had in a park and, It seems like the park is treating the animals as a nuisance they didnt even have names for them. ZooTampa was way different staff interacting with animals, and animals seemed happy.
