Playing Breath of the Wild

As I wait in anticipation for the new Animal Crossing I had to first try to play Breath of the Wild again since I didn’t much time to earlier when I first got it.

Misc. Notes:

My poor horse Stella hasn’t left the stable since I boarded her because I am 1) an avid climber and quick-travel to get out of situations 2) afraid she will die and I’m too attached

I am definitely a main-quest kind of person, I know side quests are important for gaining skills or cool things but I am lazy. I do go through the shrines though, I like the puzzles (not so much the ones with enemies in them) and also love the teleportation capability after activating them hah

So as of the moment I am still on the Reach Zora’s Domain quest but I just glided and climbed and found a chest with 100 rupees so I think I have jumped ahead a lot. I just keep saving every time I leave a ‘safe’ spot so I hopefully don’t have to do the mission again. Also I still don’t have the map piece yet for the area so I am completely blind.

Improvise, adapt, overcome.

Minecraft Let’s Play

Everyone knows that you are only officially a content creator once you play Minecraft. Here’s a ‘Let’s Play’ from July/August 2019, with my world appropriately titled “Summer’s End”. Also forewarning that I am a peaceful-mode person and cheat later on (go temporarily to creative mode) because I’m here for a good time not necessarily a epic hardcore survival mode time.

I played Minecraft for the first time back in 6th grade (2012), but mostly on the school-issued iPads with my friends in 7th and 8th grade. So it was interesting to see some of the more recent updates (considering the latest update I recall was when they added horses).

At this point in the ‘Let’s Play’ I kind of let myself cheat a bit because the heckin’ Nether spawned me in the ceiling and there was no way for me to get down without drowning in lava (I tried relocating my above-ground portal but it was never far away enough and it would end up right back in the ceiling). And unfortunately a few things conspired that I did not document: I located an abandoned mineshaft and looted a bunch of cool stuff, but then proceeded to die and lose everything. Even flying urgently in creative mode I couldn’t locate my dead body’s belongings in time. Then as I was zooming around I found a desert pyramid that was mostly submerged underground. In which I dumbly landed on the pressure plate that I knew was there hhhh and blew up whatever goodies were in those chests. Just a bad day all around. Also at some point I located a witch’s hut and a few mushroom trees. That’s about it for playing minecraft in the summer. I haven’t touched the world in a while but here is a final overview.
