  • It should have. This is why I joined, and in fact there’s no technology reason why it shouldn’t have. The CEO et al simply did not understand that the content creator was their customer and viewed them, somehow, with disdain—despite being anti IP anarchist types, they were oxymoronic when it came to understanding who they needed to serve.

    I think the best way for it to live on is as a software fork / side chain to BTC/BCH. Or you could refactor it completely against Celestia. Ethereum it wouldn’t work because the data shards demand too much and would cause L1 fee spikes.















  • BOTW is incredible. Probably my favorite game in terms of design.

    However, its dungeons aren’t just weak, they’re barely skirting the definition of dungeon. They’re by far the weakest part of the game. Its story is solid but I think the execution of the story and performances are also weak.

    Majora has a gameplay loop that is completely one with its story. Very few games manage to have the core loop truly be informed by their story, which is sublime when it happens.

    And it also hits traditional Zelda tropes, such has dungeons with legitimate puzzles that you have to think about.

    BOTW would be THE GOAT game if its weak points weren’t so weak compared to the rest of the franchise. They were sacrifices to its new gameplay paradigm. But they really didn’t have to be sacrificed.

    Majora, especially if you played it when you were like 12, caused you to feel real anxiety constantly. The dread was always marching your way.

    BOTW is simply the opposite. Total freedom and creativity means there is no urgency or anxious story beats propelling you to some catharsis.
