@TheJGG I'm often on foot when I go after a guardian (no horse) because I want to shield parry the guardian. And I like whistling to get the guardian's attention. But that brings the stupid horse into the battle. (stupid = horse usually gets in the way, and can get itself killed by the guardian, or by my swinging sword.)
Although, I have seen footage, you can gallop circles around a guardian and fight it with your master sword from horseback. It's actually fairly functional, not as dicey as you'd think.
@BloodNinja There are people on NL that don't like botw. You're going to like what you like. I think botw is revolutionary. The fact that it's highly acclaimed, though, means it's highly likely you'll like it.
Side bonus: one of the biggest problems with zelda games of the past is, if you take a long break from a zelda game, you can forget what you're supposed to be doing in the game, which is why I never completed Twilight Princess. Botw has a great quest log. You can open it up, see completed quests, see open quests, see who you talked to, what they said, and the game will put a thumbtack on the map so you know exactly where it was, or where you are going.
Since it was brought up awhile back when animated movies were being talked about, I finally saw a Studio Ghibli movie. It was Ponyo, and ended up really liking it.
Feels good to finally see one of these movies.
The resident Trolls superfan! Saw Trolls Band Together via early access and absolutely loved it!
@BloodNinja it’s a flower of the Stapelia genus! I’m not sure what’s the exact species though.
Basically, it’s a flower that tries to look and smell disgusting, to attract flies to pollinate it. I mean, it tries to look disgusting, but it’s pretty cool isn’t it!
The way the little hairs move in the wind, it’s almost like it’s moving them on its own. It looks like something you’d see in a sci-fi movie.
I lost 7 pounds riding my bike for 2 hours this evening. I'm sure it's water weight, but it's still amusing to see.
It's also funny, when I ride in the heat for 2+ hours, drink tons of water over that period, yet never have to pee, I think because, I sweat so much, that doesn't make it to the bladder. ?
@ogo79 I'll keep my fingers crossed for you, but if @Zuljaras uses plenty of bubble wrap, I think it'll be alright. He's certainly made you a fine collector's piece. And what's more: it'll be a completely unique, one of a kind collectable...
i believe it will ship just fine myself.
and yup, completely unique piece it is, as @Zuljaras kept me in mind all the way, thats sentimental value to the fullest. i have some one of a kind figures and prototypes but they werent crafted with me in mind, i take this like the knives my dad crafted for me.
@Zuljaras You're welcome man. It's really looking great. And even though I don't share @ogo79's love for skeletons, I'll have to admit that I actually am kinda jealous...
once im content ill post my little shelf one day, im always in the middle of doing business with collectors that seem to have hard to find or figures and i need that master pic to show lol
@ogo79 Oh wait those weren't muffins, they were pizza skulls. Well holey **** I need me some of those.
yeah i noticed you thought they were muffins, aint pizza even better?
ill say yes for you.

@Blooper987 I got my first one just this year, I still only have one and there is so many I want, and seeing this I only have one thing to say. Its about TIME!
Edit: I also think they have a number of V tubers.
@Zuljaras@Eel@Snatcher It always bugs me how Hera's jealousy results in the deaths of people that've done absolutely nothing wrong. I'm pretty sure she was involved in several trysts herself so if it's to stop Zeus sleeping with others her argument is super weak.
@BloodNinja I can't answer about Skyrim specifically because I haven't played it, but I've played a lot more open-world games after Breath of the Wild that warrant comparison. Horizon: Zero Dawn, Ghost of Tsushima, plus the hour of Genshin Impact I've played so far. Horizon has similar structure in that you can tackle some of the quests in differing orders, but it's more like having secondary main quests that you can do before or after the main main quest. GoT is a bit more linear but you can do a lot of stuff in between each story quest.
Breath of the Wild doesn't have post-game quests but the game assumes that you beat Ganon before doing all the shrines and such. After you beat Ganon, and reload your save it puts you back in the game just before you walk in to start the final boss fight. Just like Xenoblade 1, Xenoblade 2, and Horizon Zero Dawn. But in your map you'll see a percentage of how much of the shrines, quests, locations, Hyrule Compendium, and Korok Seeds you've gotten, to two decimal places.
I like what games like Xenoblade X, Death Stranding (kind of) and Ghost of Tsushima do though, namely having post-game quests, and an environment set after you beat the final boss, or finish the main story. You can now go around, do whatever you want, take on quests, and nothing can stop you. With BotW though, that was always the plan from the start (exploring and doing whatever you want) so it's not a bad thing.
And there are two HUD options in the game: Normal and Pro. Normal has your heart gauge, mini-map, sound meter (for stealth) time, small icons to tell you what to press to select what weapon, and more. Pro has the Heart meter and absolutely nothing else. For me, I started out with the normal one and quickly got used to the controls and swapped to Pro.
Hope all this helps you make an informed choice!
@WoomyNNYes I've done that a lot actually, swinging the Master Sword wildly circling a Guardian. It's quite fun, so is weaving to and fro so that it misses its shot.
As for horses... I've had one die on me just once. It was very saddening... But one thing you can also try is jumping or swinging a weapon. Or shooting the Guardian with an arrow.
@Sunsy Finally! My two favourites are Spirited Away and Princess Mononoke. Hopefully you'll find time to see those two at some point!
Currently playing:
Final Fantasy VII Rebirth
Persona 4 Golden
Dragon Quest XI S
F1 23
Xenoblade Chronicles 2
@Eel That's beautiful, what is it? Looks other-worldly!
yer not fooling me for a second, you just like it because it looks like a shirken...
and yer most likely trying to find a smarter way to do what ninjas do best.

@ogo79 It looks like a out of place starfish. Is it edible?
Edit: I´m reading back it smells disgusting, then it needs loads of mayonnaise.
lol, he say an out of place starfish hahaha.
its a terrifying fact that you can mask food with mayo and the problem disappears, at least for some.
but weve got weirdoes here that eat pineapple on pizza and those that want to experiment with strawberries on burgers.
why am i still here?
