an annoying voice can't make a show worse,

I disagree

i mean, they would have to be fucking atrociously bad for it to matter for me

when it comes to animemes,

themes/messages > characters > story > style/visuals > animation > music > voice acting

One of my friends, who is learning Japanese, found an incredibly minor flaw that still kind of resonates with me:

The only things in the game that are dubbed in English are the voices of the main cast. Background characters/extras weren't dubbed over at all, so if you listen closely, you can hear some undubbed bits of dialogue in the game—because they couldn't be fucked.

It's a nitpick, but it's also one of those things that, had they actually gone out of their way to dub those extra bits of dialogue, it would've been a really cool gesture. I don't know, that sort of thing is kinda what makes the difference between a 9/10 and a 10/10 for me.

DLC/Amiibos.

Weather. It rains WAYYY too often, exactly as I feared it would prior to the game's release. It wouldn't be so bad, but the fact that it completely debilitates you is kind of fucking silly, especially since you can hardly do anything about it except wait it out. Why not just give us a special clothing item that allows us to climb during the rain, or something? Give it really low defensive properties. Or they could give us a flute that, when played, makes the rain go away, but it only has three uses and it's really rare/expensive. That's all they need to do.

Shrine variety. Either cut down on the number of "test of strength" shrines, or just make them more interesting. Have different enemy types, different terrains, etc—I'm ALWAYS disappointed when I find a new shrine, only for it to be another combat one. They're not bad in principle; they're just really boring and easy, and they come off to me as "filler" more than anything.

Enemy variety. Overall, it definitely feels a bit on the lower side—especially for a game of this scope.

The entire story being told through disjointed memories is fine, I guess, but I would've preferred something a bit more tangible. Knowing that all these things have already happened in the past, and I'm only now viewing them, makes me feel incredibly distant from them in a way that negatively affects how emotionally attached I can be towards them.

Rupees need to be harder to get. You can make bank from absolutely anyone just by collecting a bunch of random shit and then selling it all at once, because all the NPCs have infinite Rupees. In my opinion, they should make it more like Fallout, where every NPC has their own limited wallet, and they can't just buy everything from you. This would give a sense of genuine value to every single Rupee that you own and find. Maybe this is just me, but I really enjoyed how the first two or three hours of the game involve you being completely Rupee-less, and when you finally collect your first Rupee, you're like, "Holy shit, I have 20 Rupees!" I don't know. I just love having to scavenge for stuff, instead of never having to worry about anything, inventory-wise.

And yeah, I think your inventory should be severely limited, too. Maybe add a equip load system, where you can only carry so many things at once? But I'm not sure how to balance that in such a way that wouldn't make the game less fun and more tedious.

Weapons can stay brittle, but there really should've been a way to repair stuff.

Did there really need to be 900 Korok seeds? It's not a flaw, but I personally don't find them very fun to collect.

Chests should contain more exciting things. I'm not entirely sure what, but give me something more than just gemstones and weak weapons. Maybe give me materials that'll allow me to fix the weapons that I just broke, or materials that'll allow me to modify my weapons with cool effects. Slaying a colony of white moblins feels like a complete waste of time (and weapons) if all you're going to get from it is a Ruby. I understand that there are ways to sneak into those colonies without having to kill anything, and that's cool, and one of my favorite aspects of the game. But sometimes I just wanna kill shit, but it's rarely ever worth it towards the late game.

The frame rate could be a bit better. Normally not one to even comment on technical things like this, but given that this is my second or third favorite Zelda game, I put it to an extremely high standard where little things like that start mattering more.

Dungeons could've been longer, though I enjoyed them overall.

The window for flurry slash could've been a lot less lenient. I know this isn't Dark Souls, but I'm at a point where the game's combat just doesn't feel as cool or interesting as it wants to be.

It's still a 9/10 game, and it's still the best thing I've played since 2003—but it does need to be ironed out a bit.

i'd also like to note that nobody has ever recommended me angel's egg

Really tho is there any reason to do this other than to prove to yourself that you can?

masturbation is a pretty disgusting and wasteful habit

I can understand disgusting, but wasteful? What are you wasting?

time

i don't masturbate in general anymore, so i guess i'm in?

i'm FUCKING TERRIBLE with this, but my problem is that i'm rarely ever in the mood

because i know if i reply, they're gonna respond immediately and then expect me to have a whole conversation with them

You have the highest post count on the site.

Why the fuck do you think you're here if not to talk to people.

this website is different, i'm thinking of facebook and instant messaging and stuff

T.I: Trap Muzik (Grand Hustle/Atlantic, 2003) While this record wasn't exactly released in the past five years, it does seem to mark the beginning of an era for hip hop. It's called Trap Muzik, after all. Is that to say T.I. "invented" trap music? Maybe, maybe not. I guess that's up for debate, despite how he personally feels about it, but I'm not that interested anyway. At the very least, I think it's fair to say that he gave this style of music a label and put it on the map. But either way, trap has obviously changed a whole lot over the past decade. I can still hear remnants of the shitty "bling"-era on this thing that are hard not to cringe at today, but at the same time, you can't forget that there's still a couple of cuts on here ("Doin' My Job," "Let Me Tell You Something") that feature a pre-College Dropout Kanye West on the production. Naturally, these wound up being some of the more interesting tracks, and not just for the novelty—they're actually decent. And as corny as it is, "Rubber Band Man" still bumps. I don't care. It's just a fun song, which the rest of the album doesn't seem to offer a whole lot of. Most of the beats sound like they were composed in Mario Paint or some shit. Especially that intro cut. Overall, it's a lyrically dull and merely listenable experience that I couldn't really recommend to anyone but hardcore T.I. fans (all three of them) or hip hop historians, both of whom have no doubt already listened to this thing. ("Doin' My Job," "Rubber Band Man") 6/10
