The Wizard, The Witch, And The Wild One

THAC0 Bell is just such a good pun.

Yes, this is the true ending 🌱

Some Worlds Beyond Number sketches I wanted to share as this show feeds my imagination quicker than it can digest

Just got the Master Sword. I've done 24 shrines (4 on GSI, 20 to get the second ring of stamina), plus three dungeons. Reaching the Light Dragon did take about half of my Zonai charges, though.

Welp. I finally caved and started Tears of the Kingdom. Haven't touched it since 100%'ing my first file a year ago.

Tilda Swinton should play Tingle in the Zelda movie.

EoW Spoilers!

I just finished Echoes of Wisdom and I have *thoughts* about the ending.

So... perhaps it's just me, but I'm pretty sure that final boss was awful. Like, unforgivably bad. I truly have no idea how someone thought it was a good idea.

I should say, before I get into it, that I never got the automatons from Dampe. It's very possible that my experience would have been much better if I had them, but in any case, I think the fact that it is even possible to have the experience I did is a massive mark against the game.

Basically, my issue is that you have no way of interacting with the final boss beyond spawning echoes. They make you give Link's weapons back to him (and thus give up Swordfighter mode), so he can fight with you. On the surface, this is a cool gimmick, but at least for me, it basically met my battle with Null was just 1) Spawn Lynel (or shark for the swimming bit) and 2) run away. Lynel's dead? No problem, there's no cooldown or anything, just spawn him again. I spent the entire final boss at full health, running in circles.

To be fair, it was probably possible to do that for previous bosses, too, and maybe even the wider game as a whole, but it always felt to me that I would be much better off using both echoes *and* Swordfighter mode. Sure, I had a higher chance of getting hurt, but I was having more fun and probably ending the fight quick enough to avoid that extra damage.

Why in the world would you make it so the player has no direct attacks against the final boss, so they just have to wait around for the entire fight? It baffles me. Again, probably my fault for not visiting Dampe, but still.

Ah, so I have learned that Mineru is the only sage you can't get before starting the Regional Phenomena quest. I had never actually finished talking to Purah to get that, so the mask was locked. Weird.

Welp. I finally caved and started Tears of the Kingdom. Haven't touched it since 100%'ing my first file a year ago.

forgot to post these here. tears of the kingdom+long term nuclear waste storage warnings

“Brennan Lee Mulligan drops the fact that he’s now a father on the Worlds Beyond Number fireside chat while doing a bit about escaping the Panamanian jungle” was not on my 2024 bingo card tbh
