I know it's better in theory than Reddit but maaaaan it's so lonely here sometimes! So many communities are just a ghost town. It's so bad that I (normally a lurker) am motivated enough to get out of my cave and post. We need more active text only post subs cause I'm just soo sick of news links :/ we also need more active friend making subs fr.

If anybody is out there, hi ๐Ÿ‘‹. We probably have very different life experiences, but that doesn't mean we can't chat lol

You absolutely must be a big Zelda fan then, no?

Actually I only played minish cap fully. I tried link to the past on GBA emulator and a link between worlds on 3ds emulator but found both had some quality of life problems. I also tried ocarina of time on n64 emulator but I didn't like it that much. Heresy I know :P. But that was a long time ago and I only played a little. Maybe I didn't give it a fair shot. I never played any other zelda, mostly because I like 2d zeldas and the new ones are harder to emulate without problems. Had this weird bug with a link between worlds where link would go to the right. It's like stick drift on keyboard somehow.

I should definitely play breath of the wild someday because my brother says it's amazing. He played it on emulator too, managed to get it running. But first I gotta play ocarina. He also played Hades and told me to play that. I don't like roguelikes though so I'm hesitant.

Man my list of "should play" is endless lol. Like I said, fossilized comfort zone. There's probably so many things you'd be like "Wait you've NEVER played x?" It's even worse for movies or shows. I'm that guy who never watched anything.

No I never heard of RetroArch. I get my roms from shady sites so good to know.

Hey what else do you like to do in your free time :D?

It might be worth trying the HD remaster of OOT with a 3DS emulator? It takes some button mapping but I got a pretty smooth setup to switch between the 2 screens on Retroarch. ALTTP is absolutely legendary though, would recommend trying that again, if you prefer 2d games

Here's my source for ROMs: https://r-roms.github.io/

Some other stuff I like to do are: archery, kayaking, hiking, and I also like to try my hand at baking sometimes too

That's a great idea. Thanks for the links.

I've always wanted to do archery. I think one time when I was a kid in school they let us shoot at a festival. That was fun. Otherwise you're clearly way more extroverted.

Ok I'm running outta topics so here's a random question: what's the most obscure animal you know living or extinct?

Me I would say Hallucigenia. The extinct spiky stick most closely related to velvet worms. Apparently there was a scientific debate over which side is the face and which is the butt lol
