Time to shit, or get off the pot Shawshank, April 23, 2023 As the title says, it’s time. I defeated all the divine beasts. I have 20 shrines left to go. I have pretty much most of the side quests complete, no more shrine quests left. There’s not a lot left. I’ve been wasting time just wandering around under the guise of “exploring”. I don’t think I’ll ever find all 900+ Korok seeds – I think I’ve found about 110ish. I’ve been putting off heading back to Hyrule castle. Putting it off, because it’s pretty much the unknown. I spent about 2-3 hours in the castle, before starting to just wander around in circles. Getting lost, and the repetitive music annoyed me, so I warped out. Then wandered. The first couple of days of wandering was pretty good, I finished up a bunch of side quests. Then it just went to I’m just going to “explore”. That was good for a couple of days, but now, I think I’m ready. I think. When I boot it up today, I’m going to prep – make some food, and get some ancient arrows, but mostly food. I’m wicked nervous. This morning, I started the search for easiest way to get to Ganon, not the fastest way, but easiest – the castle is such a maze. It’s very easy to get turned around. The 3D map is terrible. If anyone has any suggestions, please let me know. I need all the help I can get. Lockup Library Video Games blogbloggerbreath of the wildjournallegend of Zeldavideo games

Lockup Library Video Games And I think my spaceship knows which way to go January 29, 2024 Hey hey space nerds! We’re back with more pretty pictures, and my stunted way of explaining what I’m doing in my 120ish hours playing No Man’s Sky. Things have been progressing slowly. I swear that’s now this game works. You can get shit accomplished, but only after a “warm up”… Read More
Lockup Library Video Games First impressions: Tears of the Kingdom May 12, 2023 So, I started TotK this morning. It’s massively huge. it took me about 4 or maybe 5 hours to get out of the hell that was the starting area. Don’t get me wrong, it was a really nice starting area, but a couple of things stuck out that were bothering… Read More
Good morning, world. It’s a new week, and the sun is shining. We enjoyed our Sunday at home, and played some BotW. Shawshank is madly prepping for the last battle. I played some as well; he wants me to get to the same point before he tries. I adventured in my typical fashion. In this case, I loaded the game with the intent of making a round of shopping to buy out all the arrows I could possibly find. After buying all the arrows in two towns, I forgot this task, finished a quest instead, and then decided to explore and find treasure chests. An hour or two later, I put down the controller and we headed out to Shady Acres. We’re borrowing stuff this week. Shawshank asked to borrow their vacuum, because sometimes we feel like the robot needs an assistant. I took home a sewing machine and its things. I really want to upcycle some jeans into a skirt, and need to take in some booty shorts made for someone with more booty. After dinner, we started receiving alerts that KP index conditions were right for aurora viewing. I laughed, because it was still daylight. Bright daylight. Like, the sun hadn’t even set yet. A 4% chance to see them is still a chance, we joked. But the alerts kept coming all evening. Shawshank‘s phone would go off, then mine. He’d check the optimal viewing map, I’d look out one of the windows. Before one such alert-turned-smoke break, Shawshank showed me the app’s map, with TinyTown firmly in its prime aurora viewing area. I joked that I didn’t know why I kept looking out the window because I can’t fucking see them from inside the house anyway. Outside the house, they were definitely visible. After a couple of minutes of standing in the yard, Shawshank suggested we take the truck and head outside of town. I grabbed poi because WHEN WILL I GET THE CHANCE TO SPIN UNDER THE FUCKING NORTHERN LIGHTS EVER AGAIN. He took some absolutely gorgeous pics while I played with my balls under the lights. I can’t imagine seeing it in a lifetime when we didn’t know the science behind it. Even knowing the science, that shit’s fucking magic and no one can convince me otherwise. Today is sloth day. Shawshank will make brunch, I’ll vacuum. He says he might put me down for a nap this afternoon to make up for being up early this morning. I went into the yard to take care of a bird who slammed into the front window and didn’t make it, but that’s it. No matter what we do, I’m not getting out of these jammies. Reply
