kradeelavshort post but loosing my mind over the first/"northwest" dungeon in Tears holy shit
holy FUCK did Tears deliver on my gripes about BOTW's sorry excuses for dungeons
'ok u want proper temples? here's a proper temple that's like your absolute favorite one ever (stone tower) but BETTER :D :D :D (ps you're not even going to loose your shit about the temple proper, the path up to it is worth it alone)"
i'm so glad my grandma wasn't watching me play through getting to there LOL. because i was muttering 'what the fuck, what the fuck' in an awe-stricken basically the whole last half of it. it started when i noticed that 'hey the colors/aesthetics of these ruins/blocks look *really* similar to stone tower's aesthetics, that's cool', near the base, and then when you climb up enough to go 'what the fuck those floating pirate ships weren't just like, artifact jpgs to look cool, THOSE ARE REAL???!!"
and then right when you pass the cooking pot as a "safe" spot 2/3's of the way through ... that was like one never ending scream but mostly of joy bouncing around everywhere. also a little bit of anxiety between saves lol.
(also having tulin beside you as a little rookie scout learning from you was such a genius idea emotionality-wise because i was sort of talking to him in my head while trying to save the korok before the blood moon hit all 'hey hey hey we gotta get out of here right now otherwise-' and just. man. i feel feels here.
at this point this game straight up beats OoT in terms of zelda favorites and sits right under MM/WW in terms of all time king favorites which is genuinely something i never thought would ever, ever happen. like, I dream Majora's Mask dreams monthly. i hum the stone tower theme under my breath whenever bored. that game lives in my subconcious, yo.
and THAT WAS ONLY THE FIRST (part to the first) DUNGEON w t f
