I plan on playing all the FFXV DLC. I could see the Gladio section being pure combat but I hope they mix some story in as well. Touching on his mood swings would help.

I attempted my first Divine Beast battle last night. It felt like a bad Kingdom Hearts fight as I spent my time fighting with the controls, the camera and the quicktime events. I'll try it again this weekend with a calmer mind.

It will be like that for me and ME:Andromeda. I interrupted my Fallout 4 playthrough for BOTW. I'll either alternate or finish one, then the other. By then I'll have some free FFXV DLC to tackle. That will give Andromeda's fanbase time to love the game… then hate the game… then resign themselves to the game… then draw…

Still no good at the combat and have started avoiding it all together. 9 hearts found, radish and defense foods cooked, and foes are still one or two shot-ing me. I only recently learned how to upgrade my armor. I'm hoping a focus on farming armor upgrades will allow me to tackle a few Moblin camps.

I've been scared to sell my gems after a travelling Goron told me I'd need them for crafting upgrades. I've been selling cooked food instead which makes fundraising a slow process.

I bought a used Gamecube several years ago along with Twilight Princess, Wind Waker and Ocarina of Time. It was my first time with each. Of the three I felt Twilight Princess was the easiest to sit down and play without fighting the gameplay systems. Waker's sailing and fish feeding got on my nerves and Ocarina of…

I've tracked down most of the memories and I appreciate the game's willingness to make Zelda potentially unsympathetic. I've mentally replied "Well excuuuse me Princess" multiple times. I'd love one of the final memories to reveal that Zelda was somehow responsible for the destruction of Hyrule, rather than Ganon, in…

I like the scenes with Scar but have no patience for the Timon/Phumba/Nala stuff in the middle. The stage version hurts itself by drawing these parts out and giving Scar a terrible new song (The Madness of King Scar) that renders him toothless.

To be fair I'd feel self-conscious about eating off of the servants as well. Putting the silverware in her mouth could problematic as well.

Jafar's cut song, "Why Me," was rewritten for the stage version. Some complained it makes him "too sympathetic" as it points out he's much more competent than the current sultan.

The whole threatening to put her father in an insane asylum if she doesn't marry him negates any good intentions though and the build up to "Kill the Beast" appears to be jealousy after Belle insults him.

Unlocked my final tower last night. It felt satisfying to look at the full map, see which areas I'd covered with symbols, and which empty stretches were still waiting to be explored.

I enjoyed it but I skipped the cutscenes on replay. It will be interesting to play the original and remaster back to back.

But… he's not eating the seeds. He's putting the seeds in his maracas. Did he eat the maracas?

I know I watched this as a small child but I can't remember a single episode. I also had no idea Jack was pretending to be gay. It would be a few years before I learned what homosexuality was.

Coming next season: our heroes search desperately for Mrs. A. U. Totune. She's the only one who can save the remake of Beauty and the Beast."

I gave up early this season but I still enjoy the recaps. They always have the tone of "We're not mad Elementary. We're just disappointed."

Keeping yourself safe is top priority, but if you can I'd recommend searching for your local PFLAG chapter. They offer resources for LGBTQ+ youth and their families.

Saw episode 7 of Riverdale. I never thought this would become appointment television but there you go. The writing is funny, (most of) the cast is charming, and the camp appeals. I'm the target demographic for Feud: Bette and Joan but it appears to be stuck behind a cable paywall on the FX site.

I'm searching for towers in BOTW and picking up shrines along the way. I've found 5 memories with the painters help but can't seem to stumble across them on my own. I told myself I'd mix my Zelda time with errands on Saturday. Then it got cold outside and I played all day. Feeling guiltier than I thought I would this…
