Hello Everyone!

Let’s start a first ever, “What are you playing this weekend?”.

I am still completely enthralled by The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. I am about 50-60 hours in, and still have lots of explore. I don’t want to mention anything that might be a spoiler, but I think I should be around 60% done with the story. I am on media blackout about the game, so I don’t actually know how long it actually it is, but this is what it seems like. Of course, if I go by total amount of Shrines, or Koroks, I am probably just 10-20% of the total.

All my other games are on pause, probably not going to resume anything else until I have finished Zelda.

What about all of you? What are you playing?

    I’m actually forgetting taking photos all the time, so I doubt my Compendium will ever be filled. The amount of all the items and critters is so overwhelming though, it feels like way to much. Yes I know it suits the world and so on. Maybe it’s the fact that the sorting seems off, and for me the sorting resets at random to …

    IDK what kind of sorting. I think it is just that that is overwhelming for me. It will be beter for me with the paper guide I think. at least I can read up a bit

    I saw a Youtube vid last that “every game is now so content heavy that you need 100h+ to get somewhere” which is fine in a way, but I do not have that much time to play. Sometimes I really miss what it used to be with the older Zelda’s you could play for 1h or maybe 2h and get through a dungeon. Giving a nice feeling of satisfaction and progress: Yes! I have that new weapon now! on to the next!

    Now with all the wearing of weapons, the foraging, the vast world… your lucky you get to your destination in that time. Which is better in this game with the nice cars you can make but still… ( I do not like horse riding ), Teleporting too. but It somehow feels like this game is meant for people with a lot of free time. and maybe those with less anxiety than I have: just the decision to ditch some weapon for another type you found gives me some anxiety. “keuzestress” we call it in Dutch which translate to “choice anxiety” and that is what is littered throughout the game.

    And yet: I still love the game lots. Even if some things really get old very fast: like the guy with the sign. ugh. lol I mean… 🙄 And yes I sometimes ignore him, just like the Koroks.
