My god if you want majoras mask in this game they really make you pay the goddamn price

I am actually the only person in my household who is not obsessed with the Legend of Zelda and 90% of the time when I'm doodling it's while heckling watching the others play BotW or Totk so when I saw these tweets from @butchbiscuit I had to draw Bow as Link.

Yes, Tears of the Kingdom Link would have made more sense than Breath of the Wild, but that arm looked complicated to draw and no wanna.

Just two dorks who like fiddling with gizmos and fixing ancient tech while making stupid combo arrows and hanging out with a magic princess.

(I originally gave Link Bow's hair since it's a swap but then he didn't read as Link anymore so instead he gets his dumbass OG hat. And if you're wondering why Bow is kinda purple, it's bc I was lazy and color picked from the picture right next to him, sorry Bow!)

Meanwhile swapped Glimmer and Zelda are just watching them bond like "Oh Hylia, now there's two of them!"

Also important commentary from Twitter:

[full-pockets]

Is this maybe the mystery kid with Sonia and Rarua? They look nothing like Mineru unless it's her concept art, but I haven't seen any concepts of her yet.

So, this week we'll be swapping days we do 14 to maintenance and moving the Friday stream to Saturday, for fourteen, will be doing the Dragon Quest event, and then we'll start blacksmith. with Tears of the Kingdom will be hunting for shrines, caves, and wells in the three areas I've already mapped out(the kakariko area, central hyrule, and the area south of it). finully this saturday I'll be streaming my reaction to the newest episode of Hulluva Boss, the short, and the newest episode of Hunter the parenting.

It will never not mess me up emotionally how Rauru, Sonia, and Mineru did everything they could to help Zelda go home via any method other than draconification, and she still ended up choosing that option in the end. It almost feels bleak, like their story ended in failure and they couldn't help her in the end. They genuinely wanted to help her, but all their efforts were for naught. :(

I really wish we got more shown to us about Zelda’s time in the past but at the same time I don’t think I could emotionally handle it bc it was all really just one huge parallel to the Calamity and we all lost the Champions so to have it happen again? Pain

Like I for one am happy we didn’t see the Sages of the Past (which is probably more due to them choosing to spend more time on perfecting the game mechanics than anything) more because of how much it would have hurt had we known even more about them and saw Zelda’s friendship with them

Like Zelda’s story already emotionally destroyed me so seeing how doomed she was with all of her support…. Damn okay even the thought makes me emotional

The brainrot that is occuring by following my fav fandoms on tumblr is UNREAL

It is so much more than before!!!

I have said it multiple times before andi will continue to say it.

I MISSED TUMBLR.

[batty-cool]

These are my interests in order of favorite to least favorite (although, of course, I love all of these, so maybe "least favorite" is a little misleading):

• Gravity Falls

• Re-Animator

• She-Ra

• Genshin Impact

• Honkai Star Rail (should really be on the same level as Genshin)

• Steven Universe

• Legend of Zelda BOTW & TOTK

• Mariolore (the Tiktok series by dinobunnycosplays, though I don't use Tiktok for anything besides the series LOL)

• Vocaloid

• Sonic (all games, though l've been especially into Sonic Forces lately)

• The Good Place (we all need a good laugh along with a helping of existential crises from time to time

• RuPaul's Drag Race (love to watch with my poor America-bound sister, @peggler)

I dont think i like totks plot.

Zeldas sacrifice is touching and a good place to go with her character. I just wish the rest of the games plot was as good as that

Botw was about failure and sacrifice and love and finding small joys in the wasteland and protecting quiet mundane life

And totk just doesnt really live up to its themes. Themes being: community. A good theme i really want to enjoy and in same ways there are parts where its done well- but the flashbacks with Rawrrawr, Sonia, and Ganandorf are very disappointing

I dont know what any of them really believe in. I dont know what makes Rawr guy a good king. I dont know how he interfaces with his kingdom. I dont know how sonia interfaces with her kingdom.

Like the theme of sacrifce being imparted onto zelda was good but???? Community should have also been imparted onto Zelda too. Or maybe in reverse, community imparted from Zelda to Rwarwu. She is a good ruler, she is willing to get into the dirt and rebuild hyrule with her own two hands. She has a relationship with the common people of hyrule. She wants alliances with people. In contrast Rawr just kind of seems like an asshole. Gannondorf may be evil but i cant help but feel having a guy kneel to you and swear loyalty is bad for relations.

He is a bad guy, i do doubt there was anything Rrrrrrr could have done to pacify him peacefully, but thats where ganons role as a villain / dark reflection / foil comes in. Show him being a bad leader. Show him rejecting and devaluing his community. Show him refusing to make sacrifices on behalf of his people, show him demanding them to make sacrifices in HIS stead. He had an army of gerudo standing behind him in one flashback and it was like the writers just forgot about them. The next army he gets are the monsters, gerudo are no where in sight. What happened there? Where did they go? Did they reject him? Why? When? Or did he reject them? How did they feel about this?

When i look at the plot i see a bunch of really cool building blocks that could have been used to tell a compelling narrative about kindness, community, team work, vs the inherent self destruction of cruelty and arrogance. Instead, the memories just sort of seem like building up to zeldas sacrifice. They could have done all those things together if they wanted. They had the time and money.

I got excited for ganon thinking i would get literally any context for his motivations. Windwaker ganon was based and basically in the right. I dont know why that was a one off. I think they need to retire him as a villain if im being honest. But if theyre going to keep him around the least they could do is let him be a character with thoughts and beliefs and values. The scene in windwaker where ganon spares links life because hes only insterested in the triforce, gives him a lot of layers in very little dialogue. You know. Efficient storytelling.

Gannon is my favorite villain. Or i thought so. I had played zelda titles before windwaker, but windwaker had really stuck with me. I think i just liked windwaker ganon. He was a bad guy, absolutely justified in rage against the gods. He cared for gerudo people and their suffering. He was willing to spare links life because doing so was senseless and pointless [until everything became pointless to him]. He had his own character arc. I actually hated that bastard Daphnes got in his way. Like the gods he destroyed the rest of the kingdom rather than allow it to fall into the hands of someone else. Making me feral. Let ganon have depth.

Round 5 (Final) - Luxomancy (light, holy)

Propaganda under the cut (beware of potential spoilers!!)

Glimmer:

No propaganda :(

Zelda:

i'm focusing on botw+totk zelda because that's the one i have investment in but she has gone through so much shit, half of which isn't even possible to go through without her light magic. her powers only awakened after her boyfriend died, at which point she immediately killed 25 of the game's scariest enemy type at once. she held an incredibly powerful immortal demon in a magical chokehold for 100 years straight while her boyfriend recovered enough to finish it. then, in the sequel, she accidentally sends herself back some unspecified long-ass amount in time and has no choice but transform into an immortal light dragon with the mind of an animal to get back and repair her boyfriend's sword.

Gathering Assessment: AU!

This RA x BOTW/TOTK au has had me in a chokehold for the better part of a year now. Mostly it just swirls around in my head but sometimes it breaches containment and I have to bug everyone on ra tumblr about it. This is one of those times.

I really wanted to draw some more stuff for this prompt, but I got sucker punched with the flu and I don’t have energy for shit rn lol. Anyway I hope y’all enjoy Will and Horace and the dishes they made :3

[highpriestyt]

So this week is a bit of a repeat of last week! I liked starting with Totk, and I missed MTG night last week, so I'll be doing another saturday stream this week. for ff14 we'll be doing more arr era blacksmith and and possibly other crafter quests. for tears of the kingdom, more exploration in general, poking that Yiga clan fort below Kakariko, heading to hateno!
