Link's Awakening Odin, for me what's stranger than having Zelda II in your top 5 is NOT having Ocarina in it. Also I just realized my list is almost in chronological order, with just Ocarina of Time out of place. Edited July 31 by Doom Metal Alchemist Quote
André Toulon Posted July 31 Posted July 31 Dude, what is up with your Ocarina boner. I have seen you glaze it before and that's cool but not everyone finds that to be the quintessential Zelda. Quote
André Toulon Posted July 31 Posted July 31 Like, at this point... I'm starting to believe your consensus is just your personal opinion. You can love it but it pales to LttP for me. Quote

You can love it but it pales to LttP for me. You can clearly see my personal opinion is Zelda 1, not Ocarina. Has A Link to the Past retroactively usurped the Zelda throne? I have no idea. But it was definitely the best Zelda by general consensus before Ocarina, and Ocarina knocked it off the top, whether or not it A Link to the Past reclaimed its former glory.

We covered this in that thread but my screenshot isnt that big. Not too interested in repeating it but I just think it's a bigger deal to you than most other gamers. Its ok ..i liked it...played through ot several times. But hell, FF6 blows it out of the water for me....not even close. Quote

You dont have to placate me....it can indeed be the greatest to you. But stating it as undisputed fact is kinda boorish Quote

But stating it as undisputed fact is kinda boorish I literally keep saying it's not the greatest to me. General consensus and undisputed fact are not the same. I don't always agree with the general consensus. I frequently don't. Where am I getting my analytics? My memory. If you don't believe me fine, but I'm not going to do a research project to prove a point I don't care too much about that you keep refusing to even understand correctly. IT. IS. NOT. THE. BEST. ZELDA. IN. MY. OPINION. Quote

Japanese generally doesn't have a plural form for nouns, i.e. 2 ninja instead of 2 ninjas. One should follow the rules of the language they are speaking though. Also, FMA Brotherhood is so much better than 2003. It has been my experience that most people who say otherwise are those that gave up on Brotherhood because the first 13 episodes were already done in the 2003 version. Quote

It has been my experience that most people who say otherwise are those that gave up on Brotherhood because the first 13 episodes were already done in the 2003 version. I recently rewatched all of Brotherhood on Netflix, and while it was fine, it had not much impact on me. 2003 had a HUGE impact on me, as did those other four anime on my list. Brotherhood to me is just another decent anime. I just think 2003 did the dramatic aspect far better. Quote

[classic swim] Posted 10 hours ago Posted 10 hours ago ‘Fire This Fucking Idiot Mission Designer’ Missions 5. True Crime - The one that expected you to drive the entire length of Los Angeles in three minutes 4. Maybe 50% of Red Dead Revolver, especially the penultimate stage 3. Vice City Stories - Unfriendly Competition Spoiler Only mission in the series where using cheats isn’t remotely close to cheating. Spamming & spawning dozens of gimmick npcs to shoot you in a confined space... not limited to behind or right where you’re fucking standing — is not a challenge. 2. San Andreas - last Quarry mission Spoiler - You go all the way down a pit... - Waste several minutes of your life using a shittily controlled crane on a corpse... - Go all the way back up the fucking pit, in the slowest shitbox vehicle... - RETARD TRAFFIC to ram your fucking car when you finally escape - You have to dump the “body” (object that moves like a centimeter a fucking hour it’s so slow) into the water by pure chance without falling in yourself 1. City of Lost Heaven - Death of Art Spoiler Far be it from me why a reloading animation takes fucking centuries and you’re already dead. The hitbox doesn’t even try to be sincere. Not a single one of your fucking bullets could hit a guy, doesn’t matter if you fired first — he shoots and you go from 100 to 51, maybe worse. Fine, no respectable checkpoints, but have you ever heard of healthpacks? Jesus fucking Christ. It’s so bad, countless of the deaths are you acknowledging your health is impossibly low, so you just say “Alright. Fuck it. kill me.” It was in my subconscious after completing years ago to never play that fucking bullshit last level again. Something that should’ve taken 40 minutes at most can be stretched into hours of horrible gameplay. Quote
Insipid Posted 9 hours ago Posted 9 hours ago The ingredient list for my smoothie I co-created with ChatGPT: Unsweetened almond milk – 1 cup Kefir – ½ cup Non-fat Greek yogurt – 100 g Banana – 1 medium or large Frozen riced cauliflower – ½ cup Beetroot powder – 1 tbsp Frozen blueberries – 1 cup ALDI vanilla whey protein powder – 1 standard scoop Spirulina – ¼ tsp Turmeric – ¼ tsp Black pepper – pinch Cinnamon – pinch Chia seeds – 1 tbsp Flaxseeds – 1 tbsp Canned pumpkin – ¼ cup Creatine powder – 1 tsp Honey – 1 tsp Sunflower seeds – 1 tbsp Purple sweet potato powder – 1 tsp Makes approx 40 oz. Approx 780 calories, meant to be a meal substitute. High in protein, fiber, potassium, magnesium, probiotics, and antioxidants. Most of all, it actually tastes pretty good. I had to make adjustments to draw out an appealing purple color, as it was brownish with my earlier iterations. Quote
