the arc of the ilx thread is long but it bends towards the phrase ‘steel anus’

i am genuinely surprised that it hasn't been used on ilx until now. good to finally get that one on the board

you are smart, lukas. I did a typo and made a lie to cover it up like the flesh on a steel horse. Now I am the one who is sorry.

I’m back doing the DLC. I love the map that shows you everywhere you’ve been - I’m trying to visit every spot i missed. Mostly they’re just hills and the occasional korok, but I’m really hungry for places to explore right now (for some reason). Wondering what it’ll feel like if I just start from scratch.

i played master mode a bit and the monsters regenerating their health might be a dealbreaker, its one thing to have them be just more difficult idk
― lag∞n, Saturday, 23 May 2020 23:55 (four years ago) link
the regeneration is really brutal, you have to avoid avoid avoid or peel out one at a time. I'm not sure master mode is fun, I started a master mode file ages ago but I haven't been back to it

has anyone noticed that the glockenspiel / bell sound in the Kakariko Village music is quoting the Kakariko Village music from A Link To The Past?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Oxz-LmklV4
― trapped out the barndo (crüt), Tuesday, 2 June 2020 03:12 (four years ago) link
Theres a few neat callbacks like that! The music referred to as "house" which plays when you visit Selmie the snowboarder in her little hut, is a very slow version of the inside-house music from Occarina/Windwaker.

Yeah the fragmented elements on the main world theme have entranced me, the way that "riding a horse for an extended period of time" results in weird pointillistic versions of past themes appearing is extremely in my wheelgarage
And FUCK Trayce I never would've noticed that had you not pointed it out but very much so
― flamboyant goon tie included, Tuesday, 2 June 2020 04:34 (four years ago) link
I even hear subtle hints of Animal Crossing New Leaf in some of the more islandy songs (like Lurelin village) which makes sense because one of the composers is a woman who also did AC! I love this soundtrack so hard.

Like honestly, there are youtubes out there where you can listen to "waterside" or "sheikah tower" on a loop for 10 hours and I am constantly on that. Makes working very peaceful.

I love the attention to music across the franchise. Noticing Zelda's Lullaby in Sheik's Theme was one of the first times I understood music as a story telling device:

is that something an editor is supposed to check? 11 BotW references in one paragraph, seems intentional
― The GOAT Harold Land (Karl Malone), Monday, 3 August 2020 15:51 (four years ago) link
the consensus given the context of the book seems to be that, in finding out how to make red dye, he inadvertantly copied the instructions for how to do so in botw
― devvvine, Monday, 3 August 2020 16:21 (four years ago) link
ah yes, that makes sense. i didn't realize he was a historical fiction writer. i was thinking "hell if a famous author wants to reference BotW in his book, alright!", but that move doesn't work so well when it's supposed to be real life, heh
Is it an homage? An Easter egg? Hmm. The book is *not* a fantasy. It’s a historical drama set in the real world. I had a hunch, and tried a google search. pic.twitter.com/o3yHQO4nEU— Dana Schwartz (@DanaSchwartzzz) August 3, 2020
