Tears of the Kingdom… again?! Shawshank, June 12, 2023 Yep here we are again, talk talk talkin about Tears of the Kingdom. We’ve still been playing most evenings for at least a couple of hours for me. And I think a couple days a week for a few hours for Crystal. She’s almost mapped out the entire depths, which is freakin awesome. Me, I haven’t done too much in the depths. It’s dark, and there’s Gloom everywhere. And with the gloom you can only travel certain ways to get to where you want to go. I don’t really like that, but I know eventually, I’m going to have to get over myself and get the heck underground. Don’t even get me started on the skylands either. There’s so much I need to do still. But lately, I’ve been on a side adventure, and mini quest kick. They’re fun. Yiga baby!Play Freebird! I did do one think of note. I managed to figure out the wind shrine over Rito Village. I couldn’t figure out how to start the turbines, but I quickly googled it, and soon as I read how to do it, I closed the tab. After I had read that, the first part of the shrine was a cake walk. The boss wasn’t even too terribly difficult. I used the wrong type of weapon on them, when after the fact I read to use a totally different fused part. Oh well, all finished. I guess three Devine beasts/SAGES to go. So yeah, I saved the village, and they’re totes happy, and like in Lurelin Village – I’m revered as a god. I get everything for free when I travel to Hyrule’s vacation resort. Except the Rito‘s are cheap bastards. Not even a discount or anything there. That’s ok. I’m sure they have a few side quests for me. I also was on a mission from god – to put the band back together. I wouldn’t call the Stable Trotters the next Blues Brothers, as I think they only know one song – the stable theme. It’s cool though, they’re like a shitty garage band. When they come out with the next single, Link can totally go hipster on everyone. Last night I quickly finished off another side quest, and got the final piece of Yiga armour. It looks pretty awesome, and I don’t have to worry about the random Yiga bastards wandering around all over the place.

And said if you… Read More
