Use the Snapchat beta <| sep |> nothing thats why pills are the devil . so you obviously agree with thc limits , good to know . <| sep |> I ' ve gotten an oil change from wal mart . I could also build a shitty computer from wal mart if I wanted to . And I ' ve definitely seen anime there , it ' s limited but it ' s there . <| sep |> It appears that the UK is heading in the direction of China , and TORproxiesVPN will be the only way to protect yourself . If I was rich I ' d put up big cell towers in Ireland and France and setup data connections sold to UK residents promising to never give any records to the UK government . <| sep |> A lot of the criticisms towards your post are fairly valid . It was so obtuse and almost impossible to complete without a guide . I ' m not sure what games kind of games you played or how you played them , but ALttP is nowhere near impossible . Back in the 8 bit and 16 bit era very few explorable games held your hand like games do now . A lot of them required you to simply explore the world that was currently available to you to figure out what to do next , this doesn ' t make them impossible , it just means you need to spend some time to figure out where to go next . I ' m also perplexed that you say you ' ve played games since the NES era yet you ' ve never played ALttP nor are you familiar with how all of these kinds of games were ? And lastly on this point , you mention having written about games for a living at one point means shit all . There ' s sooo many Game journalists who are complete garbage , most likely everyone commenting on your post comes from the same era and has just as much , if not more experience in regards to 816 bit gaming . and it had so much bullshit in the vein of oh you didn ' t pick up the completely optional ice rod earlier that ' s impossible to find ? Too bad you are fucked on this boss now . I ' m curious what other bullshit exists in the game because I can ' t really recall much And I ' ve just started replaying it last week and am half way through . I just generally don ' t really like dungeons , and ALttP is 90 % dungeonsSoooooo you don ' t like dungeon games yet you ' re playing a game that ' s 90 % dungeons ? That right there completely undermines your opinions about the game . AND WHY IS THE SWORD COMBAT SO TERRIBLE . You can ' t attack diagonally and enemies rush you diagonally so fast . You can ' t attack properly at all and you can ' t turn without taking a step or run backwards and attack , which is literally how the enemies seem designed to be attacked since they just charge at you . Also , enemies can inhabit the same space as you , doing constant damage . It ' s such a mess . Combat has its own unique style and it ' s smooth but I can understand how some people wouldn ' t like it . Being restricted to attacking in only 4 directions has pros and cons especially since you can position yourself advantageously while hold a charge , especially since you can MOVE diagonally . If you don ' t like the style that ' s fine , but the vast majority of people seen to I definitely do . This is more personal opinion , it ' s not really a legitimate critique of the game itself . Also , I just don ' t like how confining it feels . Everything is built on such a rigid grid , I don ' t feel like I ' m in an open world , I feel like I ' m on a Lego set or something . It ' s too claustrophobic . I ' ve never found the game confining or rigid . Especially for the era it came out in it feels much more open than most games .
