Re: The Second Unofficial Zelda Cookbook Has Already Smashed Its Kickstarter Goal

I have a friend at work who made several BotW dishes that looked identical to the in-game models. He even made his own Goron spice with a replica bottle and label. He let us sample some of his creations, and they were delicious.

Wish I could share some pictures, but he's a private individual and doesn't like to share his work outside of a close circle of friends and family and, occasionally, coworkers.

Re: Talking Point: Which Games Were Just The Perfect Length?

Chrono Trigger is my immediate response to this question.

Metroid games are usually of perfect length, but Zero Mission is the exception. The point where it starts to drag is the point where the style of gameplay shifts dramatically, so maybe it's more of a problem of quality than quantity.

I've seen BotW and TotK mentioned a couple times already, and I agree: both games are far too short!

@Jamie64326 Yes, but otherwise they're very similar. They're both open-world western RPGs; they use the same system for determing character stats and perks; they obviously have the same setting, but also similar narrative structures.

One of the big differences is that F3 combat takes place in real time by default, but even then it's still based on the same mechanics as in F2. You can even revert to more turn-based combat in F3 if you wish.
