Fairy Type Tournament

Zelda Good

I’ve just been wandering around and haven’t done any dungeons, but I’ll hide the rest of this so people can avoid spoilers.

-Gerudo Town still doesn’t allow men (except those Gorons from BotW, lame. Also do you guys think it’s actually “no boys allowed” (meaning nonbinary folks are allowed since they aren’t boys) or just “women only” (meaning no nonbinary folks allowed since they aren’t women)? 

-Paya my beloved. Glad Impa isn’t dead from what the NPCs have said.

-Purah is making it hard for me to figure out the timeline. I thought this was only a few years after BotW at most, but somehow she looks like a young adult despite being stuck looking like a kid in BotW.

-Chris Hackney Lizardman(?) being named Raaru is weird, gotta be some lore there.

-One of my friends told me about two things on the Great Plateau. The first was to go to the old man’s shack from BotW because there was a cool hat. Went there and ended up getting one shot by a buff Yiga guy because hey there’s still around. It seems like you do indeed get a hat after fighting the Yiga, but still. The second was a miniboss in the northwestern part of the plateau that he fought way too early (he was at four hearts and got some good weapons by killing it, he’s built different though don’t be like him). I was curious and went just to see what it was, no plan to actually fight it. TotK devs what have you done because that is just a straight up demon, like someone on the dev team was able to enter Hell itself, see some demons, and then put that in a video game. I reloaded a save because I knew I wouldn’t be able to outrun it.

-Another friend got some armor that looked a lot like Zant’s outfit, especially the headgear. Said he did it by doing chasm stuff.

-Mayor election sidequest is a thing? I think the fashion lady should leave and stop doing art.

I beat Xenoblade X DE. I'll get to 100% survey eventually but beating Chapter 13 is good enough for now. Very spoilerly thoughts below.

I'm still not sure how I feel about the new ending. We spent all this time on Mira and then we just have to leave and find another planet because Mira's getting destroyed. All of Mira's mysteries (the auto translation, how the humans are still alive after the Lifehold got wrecked, Lao coming back, why no one can leave, L's people, the presence of a Telethia, J-bodies, probably more I'm forgetting) are just left to never be answered or just "it's because of the Ares" (also they forgot that the Ares is supposed to be a tandem skell). Maybe if this was a proper sequel instead of a bonus chapter they could've done more and gotten around to answering some questions before leaving Mira.

I do really like Volitaris and the final segment where you're searching for your party members and the spears to weaken Void. I think you can just rush to Void without weakening it or getting anyone back (especially if you have the Ares 90 like I did), but I wanted to explore and didn't want to leave anyone behind. It was nice getting to talk to everyone one last time too, I like most of BLADE. Al letting you pilot the Ares was another cool moment, don't know why Lao's ghost was there though (still feels weird knowing he's actually dead, spent a decade thinking he was alive). I'm not sure what's up next for the cast of X, I saw the planet and thought "holy shit it's the planet from Future Redeemed go fuck yourselves Saga fans the blue light isn't KOS-MOS" but then I saw it had a ring which the FR planet doesn't so I don't think they'll be interacting with anyone from the numbered games universe yet. Sure Al has his connection to the Ares which is powered by the Conduit but it left 2's universe so who knows where that thing is now.

Happy XDE exists though, it's still one of my favorite games despite it's flaws and it's no longer stuck on a whole different console.

Inspired by the USA states poll I just reblogged! Take this quiz to see how many European countries you can name in 8 minutes :^)

Hey Discord’s about to fuck things up

Short version is that they’re changing how usernames work, most notably by getting rid of the discriminator (the #1234 or whatever at the end of your username). Here’s the full thing.

Yeah this fucking sucks. Spread the word, if we’re lucky we can bully them out of doing this.

I've seen this for some other fandoms, so I wanna call dibs on doing this for Xenoblade.

Spin the wheel for a Xenoblade 1 character, and then vote:
