Re: Rumour: Zelda Live-Action Movie Eyes "Popular" Princess Pick

I was about to say that Hunter is such a perfect casting choice for Zelda, that she literally looks just like how I imagine a live action Zelda should look...and then I read the comments.

Cause, good Lord, the meltdown you guys are having for the most bigoted of opinions is downright embarrassing.

Because of that, I'm hoping this rumour is true and that they double down on the casting choices and cast Elliot Page as Link.

Re: Soapbox: One Year On, Animal Crossing: New Horizons Is History

I hadn't played an Animal Crossing game before this came out, but right when the Pandemic had reached our shores and Lockdown procedures were just taking place, I heard from people online that were talking about New Horizons and they were discussing it as potentially the game to tide people over right when the world caught on fire.

So I picked it up on launch day and was initially concerned as I heard that it was a life simulator game and I was worried that it would potentially take several hours for me to get properly invested in the game's world.

But instead, the opposite happened. I was hooked instantly.

And now after spending over 700 hours playing it, Animal Crossing New Horizons has been one of the most uplifting and charming video games that has made it my favourite game of 2020.

No, it's not a massive, big budget, story driven, ultra graphical showcase that most AAA games are these days, but it was an important and vital lightning in a bottle moment that came out at exactly the right place at the right time.

It brought people together during the darkest of times and for me, who's been going through a lot of issues with my mental health because of the ongoing Lockdown, catching up and hanging out with my friends on their islands with our villager avatars and having the greatest of banters was exactly the comfort I sorely needed from such a god awful year.
