Oh man, highly recommend Link Between Worlds with a 3DS if you can get your hands on one! I know many people thought it was gimmicky, but it genuinely blew my mind how good the game looked in 3D. Probably tied with Samus Returns and RE:Revelations for some of my best gaming experiences on the 3DS.

I've played almost every Zelda except 1+2 (I swear I'll get to it...someday) and the CD-i ones. BotW + TotK was some of my favourite times with the franchise, it really took me back to experiencing the OoT + MM duology.

I think a lot of the "People hate BotW/TotK/x Zelda" is partially an online circlejerk, tbh. No matter what the vocal Zelda fans may tout as "popular" opinion, there's actually a lot of variance in and outside of the Zelda community. I remember when Wind Waker and Twilight Princess were touted as the black sheep of the franchise, and look at them now.

(Except Wand of Gamalon. That might be the one universally hated Zelda game in my experience, lol.)

Yep, that's what everyone I know with Apple devices have always done. I used to have a Nexus 7 (rip) and an iPhone, and the prices on the App store were always higher than the prices on Android Market (rip).

I'm wondering why it's being pointed out now by everyone, but I'm not gonna complain if it leads to some sort of price parity regulation across platforms.

I can't, it's +42C outside 🥲

I'm just old enough to have heard all of this many times before. But sure, I'm the one that needs educating

Here's the thing though, what you're "hearing" is a false narrative, and I linked you the numbers to prove it. The voter turnout for younger generations is on par or only slightly lower than other generations, and actually higher in the key battleground states. So why are you so defensive and pessimistic instead of acknowledging what you "heard" about youth turn out might be false and actually a systemic problem, not a generational one?

I'm all for optimism and I truly hope Texas goes blue. But I bet you it won't.

Texas literally cannot go full blue unless there are several districts that are un-gerrymandered. It's part of the Republican capture of battleground states. Again, a systemic problem that you imply are an individual's fault.

Quick thought, how about we stop calling places where people are trying to live their lives "shithole countries?"

Went to India for a month tour, no gang rapes in sight, lots of good food eaten, lots of beautiful architecture seen. Went to Germany, had to stop three German men from harassing and pulling a tiny woman into a car she clearly didn't want to get into.

Maybe I should have written an international news article about it. 🤔

Why would you blame the youth when the southern establishment has repeatedly made it harder for them to vote in the first place?

Also Texas youth voter turnout has only gone up since 2016, and was instrumental of the purpling of Texas during both 2020 and the previous midterm elections. You're pulling the classic of blaming the younger generation for something that is not their fault.

Eat some avocado toast while educating yourself maybe.

You're right, I can read the text now! And for some reason my brain likes this version of the photo more than OPs? It's strange but it looks more "correct" to me.

Hey, here's a big difference between the US and the UK:

The UK fascists DON'T HAVE GUNS.

I was thinking the exact same thing. This is the opposite of dystopian, this shows a government that cares about citizen safety.

Imagine being part of the Haitian community they're trying to terrorize with guns and hearing this.

"Yeah sure buddy, I'll deprogram the guys holding guns to threaten me."

Empathy is needed, but come on. Time and a place.

Yes, I know. I watched Kill La Kill.

Everyone that watches it still asks, "Why is she naked?" before it's explained though. Because that's part of the creator's intent.
