Oh my God I want it so bad.

I never owned my own copy of Wind Waker. I borrowed it when I was a kid from a friend and then later I played the Wii-U version from a different friend. Now that I’m like, an adult (more or less) with my own console, I want a copy for myself. And also I want to play it again. Man! Love that game!

I play this on my android phone. It’s free, ad-free, and you can pay to support.

The updates have been awesome. It’s extremely difficult, and it’s not unusual to die a buncha times before your first success.

Just to add support to your point, it’s literally in The Official Stardew Valley Cookbook that the inspiration comes from Harvest Moon. He’s not at all claiming to have invented anything. ConcernedApe is a humble treasure.

(I just finished reading the cookbook is why I pulled that information from there. I’m sure there’s lots of other places where he said that.)

I’ve played them all over the years. My favorite for a long time was Wind Waker, because of the feeling of freedom it gave me, so it’ll surprise no one that Breath of the Wild beats it.

Breath of the Wild is my new fave. I gotta say that the story of Tears of the Kingdom really did it for me (just absolutely sobbing at points) but since it feels like it wouldn’t have had that impact if it wasn’t for Breath of the Wild, I give it to Breath of the Wild.

(Special shout out to Link Between Worlds. Really feel like that game was fun as hell.)

Edit: Gotta be real. I don’t remember which one I played first? I think it was Link to the Past.

Same. I’ve got a big IRC crowd vibe. (37.)

Mine was DACHEATED.

The cart said Final Fantasy 2. We now know it as Final Fantasy 4.

My father had my playing it and reading all the text out loud. I played that game over and over and over. I have all the hidden paths and treasures memorized.

The opening scrawl ended in something about Cecil and Kain vanishing “into a deep fog.” For years and years I thought it said they vanished “into a deep frog.” Let me tell you… the hours I spent lying awake at night wondering what that meant…

And of course my Dad didn’t correct me.

What an insanely good game, and a blast from the past. Thank you for reminding me of it!

Willie Nelson is known for using his for an extended quantity. Which is where the joke is, here. Snoop is known for smoking weed, and Willie Nelson is known for smoking a substantial quantity for longer than Snoop has been alive. For comparison, Snoop is 52. Willie is 90.

I hope this helped.

90s… 2000s… 2010s… 2020s…

Oh my God it has been 40 years and I’m so old! When did I get old! Why did no one warn me!
