What computer class would be complete without trying to hide the fact that you are actually just playing line rider. Everyone in class would test each other's tracks, great times were had. Naturally all the tracks featured some incredibly horny artwork

Skill challenges were more or less non-existent, and I can only think of one box sliding puzzle that was hard. I've always been a fan of Zelda combat however, even if it is easy. The music has also always been a high point for me with Zelda.
Weirdly I think I need to add aesthetics to the list as well, even though I initially hated it. Now the graphics seem warm and inviting to me.

Overall, I really enjoyed this game, and was excited to get back to it when I wasn't playing. I loved the exploration, even though the sailing did take a while at the beginning. The dungeons required a little bit of thinking, and were varied enough to stay interesting. I enjoyed all the game's characters (except for the absolutely disgusting snot kid, no idea wtf Nintendo was thinking with that one... why is there a picture of him elsewhere? ffs!), and found the setting and main story pretty entertaining as well. I'm still a big fan of the underwater kingdom and the angular link statue as well.
That being said, I do have 2 main complaints about this game (three if you count the dragon in the ceiling in Ganon's Tower). I can't say for sure if these are remastered problems, however.
My primary issue was difficulty. I died one time during the whole game, and it was to the village pig. I highly regret not playing on hero mode, as the whole experience was too easy. I assume that's because this was supposed to be for children under 10 - but Nintendo still makes kids games, but has also learned about difficulty since then. I died SO many times in Tears of the Kingdom, possibly due to the stupid order i did things in. And as I mentioned elsewhere, I am currently re-attempting the Trials of the Sword in BOTW in Master Mode, which seems to be approaching Sekiro levels of difficulty.
My second gripe is another feature in Ganon's Tower. I truly hope this was only in the remastered version, because it is some embarrassingly stupid game design. In the main foyer in Ganon's tower, there are 2 rooms opposite one another that require you light torches in a given order. When you first walk into the room with the order you need to copy, it slowly zooms in on each of the extremely obviously marked things, in order. Okay, I guess, maybe people were getting stuck there in the original because it was too obscure... i can forgive that once. But then you walk to the opposite room with the torches, and it zooms in on all of them again, in order? Seriously?!? Is there even anyone alive who made it to the final dungeon who isn't smart enough to figure that out?

I quite enjoyed that winged girl dungeon as well, even if it was a bit close to Jabu Jabu's belly from Ocarina. I was less into the carry gimmick with the Korok though, wish they didn't do 2 of those dungeons in a row.
After actually playing the game, I can appreciate the art style as well. Although I do kind of wish I had played it on GameCube now so I could have seen the original style.

Then I got sick too, and my energy for writing Tildes length posts dropped to around zero.
I felt like the sailing was a bit of an issue as well at the start, until unlocking the song for quick travelling. I heard there was a faster sail too, which I never actually unlocked. I did enjoy exploring the islands though, and definitely thought about the game a decent amount.
Beating this actually inspired me to convert my switch BOTW save to something that will run with Cemu so I can finally finish the master mode trials. It only took me several weeks on normal mode, how hard could it be!

But in my experience, family members are more likely to protect abusers and blame the victim, as they don't want to deal with the embarrassment (my wife cut out a large portion of her family due to this). The fact that his mom backed him up doesn't really mean much in my opinion. I would honestly be interested to see a case where a rich / famous person did something reprehensible, and then their mother stopped supporting them (I'm sure there are some, but none come to mind).
Side note, how fucked up does your relationship have to be with your sister for them to claim that? He doesn't even have Sam Altman level money (who is another alleged sister abuser).

Hey everyone, sorry for the slow reply.
I actually completely failed to play this one, despite it sounding really interesting. The version i sourced was definitely not in English, so i didn't make it much beyond the main menu. I am definitely interested in checking out a translation at some point - I was still feeling burned out from December and January last month, so my motivation was pretty much bottomed out.
Hoping to do better with the Frog for Whom the Bell Tolls!
