It’s time for our wildcard week, folks! While the rest of the month was dedicated to relationships, I thought I’d focus more on our surroundings for this week’s post. Because who doesn’t enjoy decorating their home for Christmas and getting it nice and festive in time for all your guests to arrive? So today, I’m…

The Horror that Surrounds: Into the Dark of The Depths
Fear of the unknown is a powerful motivator to, well…stand still. Very, very still. That’s the first thing I did upon entering The Depths in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. As Link, I just stood there, surveying the empty sea of seemingly nothing that lay beyond the lit circle of “safety” where…

I May Never Defeat Ganondorf, but Tears of the Kingdom is Still Alright
After spending over 160 hours in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, there I was, as Link, facing off with the Demon King Ganondorf, knowing I was doomed. Actually, I knew it much earlier, when the classic ender quest to “defeat Ganondorf” appeared. Though I had obtained the Master Sword, I knew I…
Scariest enemy: The bigger they are, the faster I run!
When I look back at my past in gaming, I don’t know if I can pinpoint the origin of this particular fear. My first encounter with a thresher maw in Mass Effect comes readily to mind. If there was anything before that, it might have been one of many of the massive demons in Doom…

Different songs play during different events, discoveries, battles, and even changes as Link’s context changes. Day versus night, sky versus. depths, horseback versus walking –…
Top 5: Favorite Arrow Fuse Items in Tears of the Kingdom
When I started playing Tears of the Kingdom, I felt certain that I was not going to get along with using Link’s bow and arrow in any real capacity.

Going with the Flow in Tears of the Kingdom
Since picking up The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom at release I have been making my way through it ever so slowly. My opinion of it so far stands with what others have already said, like my cohort, The Duck of Indeed. My quick review at this point (main story-wise, I’ve so far…
Tears of the Kingdom is Bigger, But is it Better?
The short answer: yes. The long answer, however, is just a bit more complicated. The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is the long-anticipated sequel to the most ambitious entry into the Zelda franchise to date, Breath of the Wild. As the release date for this game neared, I couldn’t help but waver between…
The Duck’s Past Month with Tears of the Kingdom
Now that Tears of the Kingdom has been blessing our lives for roughly a month, I thought I’d return with another post to talk about my experiences with this truly massive game. In that time, I’ve made a whole lot of progress, and so I’ll only be able to discuss the highlights of my adventure,…
