While beating this game again, I learned probably the most important part about it's existence. It truly is experienced best when you take your sweet ass time beating the story.

When you rush this game (in particular so you can play it again in preparation for TOTK), you lose the magic of exploring, discovering and collecting. When you go anywhere, there is shit to do and resources to collect. When you play just to collect the Divine Beasts and beat Ganon, you lose like, the whole game. It's tough, given that people will probably beat the game before you when you do this, but hopefully the story and spoilers aren't the priority to you lol. The priority should be to immerse yourself in this vast and beautiful world. Being taken away by what's out there, enjoying the scenery, combat, and collectables.

All to say that, when this game hits, it hits

...I'm also saying this because APPARENTLY YOU NEED TO GET ALL THE MEMORIES TO GET THE TRUE ENDING WUIOPHDAWKJLHAKLIJWGDI

Good night! Happy Tears of the Kingdom launch day, everybody!
