Chekov's Stone Comma
Jul. 19th, 2023 10:09 pmI finished Tears of the Kingdom last night! It's got a far better final boss than Breath of the Wild, and much better overall bosses.* "Okay, fellas," said Eiji Aonuma, in Japanese, to the dev team, "Blithering-Id Reaper-slash-Giant Pig Ganon was not a hit, and also there are at least two confirmed instances of somebody straight up forgetting to equip the Sacred Bow of Light,** what the hell. We gotta up the ante."
And so they did! Because what seems to be Dehydrated Ganondorf ( totally goes all out! )
And it was a blast, though I also wanna give props to the prior phase of the Ganon fight, because they worked in a Dead Man's Volley and I'm a sucker for a good game of Dead Man's Volley.
So now I'm bereft of my game, and trying to decide if I ought to play it through again*** or if I ought to revisit Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity, which is better than it has any damn right to be.
Or maybe I'll just go on a miniature vacation this weekend. Later, y'all!
*Though there was that one DLC fight in the original that had great music, and also had some excellent drama in that the moment that damn Sheikah mummy first twitched, I was like, "Oh, it is on." Those dickheads made me jump through so many hoops, I was just itching to clobber one with a big ol' Lynel bonkstick.
**Me, and Arin from Game Grumps.
***And thus enjoy a tutorial level where I just leap to my death a lot because they don't give you the paraglider until you get past the tutorial! I was basically screaming on my first playthrough!
