Yeah, I know how lengthy they are. I want to go in without using a guide, and just explore naturally. I don't have a Switch 2, and don't intend to get one for the foreseeable future, but that is good to know. I'm not the kind of gamer who does 100% playthroughs. I prefer to play until I've had...

I'm in a somewhat unusual position of knowing a lot about the series while only having played up to the water temple in Twilight Princess, up to the boss of the air temple in Minish Cap, and roughly an hour of WInd Waker. I am aiming to play Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom at some point.

Could definitely be shortened, maybe even by half. Middle-Ground is a little awkward for a name and doesn't quite fit with the other two. One thing you could ask yourself is, 'which of these beings make substantial changes to the main narrative, or impact the story in significant ways, and which...

I could, if given enough time, recite 90% or more of Gen. 1-4 Pokemon, plus a scattering of Gen. 5-8. Pearl was my first video game ever, back in Christmad 2007, and I got Blue Rescue Team and Ranger 2 a few days later. Explorers of Sky is still my favourite game of all time, followed by...

Back to the topic at hand, of my favourite shows, the only episode that was banned is Steven Universe's Reunited, which was banned in multiple [non-North American and UK] countries because As the saying goes, Legend of Korra walked so Steven Universe could run so Owl House and She-Ra could...

I'm going to defend Spock, not just because he's one of my favourite characters, but also because I relate to him a lot. First, Leonard Nimoy was Jewish. [Not that there weren't Jewish Nazis, but that's a whole other mindfield I'm staying well away from.] Second, I've seen that episode, and...

I'll chime in to finally share my two cents. In my invented universe, all of my species and characters are asexual by default, because they don't have or need genitals. Both their biologies and ways of reproducing are so different from humans and other animals, and this wasn't so much a...

Meta, from the ancient Greek prefix μετά, meaning, roughly, 'after' or 'beyond'. In the modern usage, it means something self-referential. For example, writing a story about an author writing a story, or making a video game that frequently references the fact that you are playing a video game...

The short answer: I don't, and haven't for about 13-14 years now. I first read the series when I was little, with my dad. It provided a small amount of stability in a very tumultuous time in my life. But certain things [such as the tongue-enlargement candy that the Weasley twins feed to...

Six new members joined all on Monday alone. I'm willing to bet they all might be bots.

Unfortunately, my mind immediately goes to the TV Tropes page, 'Heroic Blue Screen of Death' [or Heroic BSD for short]. I say unfortunately because I spent way too much time on TV Tropes in the past. These days I avoid it by virtue of it not accepting my adblocker, and refusing to show any pages...

Technically the first story I ever wrote was when I was 4 or 5. Just a bunch of scribblings in a small notebook. It featured a magic whirlpool [incorrectly written as 'worldpool' more than once] that would isekai little me and several stuffed animals off on adventures. As for the first...

Ooh, that's a different take. I like it. Why go home when there's a magical world to explore.

Ah, a classic portal fantasy setup. Will your characters have difficulty living on Earth again after all of their experiences, or is the actual journey going to take centre stage?

If by easy you mean 'spent his entire life dedicated to linguistics', then, yeah, totally easy. 😄
