The most recent person you’ve heard of. Mostly talking about Games and Music, but I often have very strong opinions and try to see it from every angle.
Here are two things that all RPG’s that have these mechanics do terribly and need to be improved or removed:
1) Any sort of mission that requires you following someone. The longer, the worse. Especially when they force you to walk, at slow paces, and force you to stay within certain bounds.
2) acquiring gear you COULD “enchant” but you CANT because they don’t give you the means to “enchant” until much later. So frustrating.

I think most open world games suffer from the same problem. Or really, it’s I who suffers from the same problem. You progress to the point where the whole world opens up for you to explore, all the challenges and trials, things to collect, side quests to complete, people to meet… and I’m paralyzed. The realization that I only have so much free time and this game has now demanded hours of it. Days of it. The comfort has been eroded and repaired with doubt, uncertainty. #gaming #openworld #games
I beat Legend Of Zelda: Minish Cap last night. Last time I played Minish Cap I was maybe 12, and could not beat the game. Finally finishing it last night was very cathartic. #legendofzelda #games #gaming #Nintendo
Hot take: Film Grain is by far, the most annoying setting set to “ON” by default. Not only do I highly believe no one actually prefers to have it on, it feels like a weird attempt for a game to either cover up flaws in quality or pretend to be artsy somehow. I haven’t decided which.
I played some Legend Of Zelda: Minish Cap last night. One piece of game design I really admired was how they did STAIRS. As a 2D game, stairs are obviously awkward especially given the “slightly off kilter top down camera”. While the game also utilizes forced perspective to give the illusion of proper sizes and depth, I noticed last night that the walking speed slows down ever so slightly when walking on the stairs. Just a beautiful piece of game design. #legendofzelda #minishcap #gamedesign
4/2 lol I guess I had a lot too say.
I guess the upside is the set itself is Crown Zenith, which is nothing more than reprints, but the rest of the argument stands.
3/2 lol
The downside is that this is widely selfish and has major ramifications on the community as a whole. The problems with scalping go without saying: massively increasing the barrier of entry to ANY TCG/Video Game/collectors items only serve to punish people in the lower classes while ensuring people with deep pockets get even deeper pockets. It also heavily affects the Meta and who can afford to build for competitive play. Card games should not be “spend everything you have to win”
