Did you know there’s a place you can just get out of bounds by using Ascend in #Zelda #TearsoftheKingdom? Learn where that is here:

#backinmyday, video games were released ‘finished’: if there were any bugs found in them post release, they’d be in the game forevermore.

This was a mixed bag in many ways. If a game was broken or glitchy to a ridiculous extent (ET on Atari, Superman 64, etc) it was stuck like that, so that wasn’t ideal…

But it also meant many games couldn’t be released unfinished and fixed with updates either, and the devs couldn’t patch out any glitches or finds the players liked.

This gets even scarier when you realise that Twitter has between half and a quarter of each country’s population at the most, and only a tiny percent of those use it regularly or post about trending topics.

So much of the time stories that affect like 1% of the population are turned into major events, and small amounts of people arguing are treated like there’s a major debate going on.

Yesterday I saw a post on #Threads from a journalist wondering how to do their job without #Twitter. Even to the point they wondered how work was possible without trending topics to look at.

And that’s kinda alarming to be honest. The media has become so dependent on Twitter to find news that they genuinely struggle to find sources and do their job without it.

For todays #ThrowbackThursday, here’s #MarioKart DS, the first game in the series with online play.

Great game with some amazing tracks (Waluigi Pinball, Airship Fortress, Delfino Square, Luigi’s Mansion), and probably the best single player content in the series too.

On a different note, I have to wonder if data storage/bandwidth issues and expectations may be an issue for the #Fediverse going forward.

Large social media platforms like #Twitter operate with nearly unlimited file storage and users post large images and videos on a multiple per day basis.

But doesn’t work as well when individuals are hosting servers themselves. The storage requirements for daily/hourly video posts are kinda high.

Saw an old Daily Show clip on Threads about free speech, and it sadly seems to sum up most people.

They’re not pro all speech, just want the ability to say whatever they want, anyone else be damned.

But I think it goes a bit deeper than that. The sad truth is that everyone is pro free speech… when their opponents are in power.

If the right are in power/have social status, the left want free speech and vice versa.

I think I may have overloaded the game a tiny bit…

(Yes there was no music or sound in game at this point cause it couldn’t handle either)

Oh hey, it seems my dog Nell is having a nice day!

So the theme for #vgmwednesday today is #middleeasternmelodies? Well, since Super Mario Land’s ruins theme was posted, I may as well share the awesome desert themes from the Mario & Luigi series.

Teehee Valley is a classic:

@golemwire Nah just a clever use of the Guardless Active Shield glitch with a hydrant shield, which temporarily disabled collision for the invisible wall.

Oh hey Link works at a stable now!

#Zelda #TearsoftheKingdom

Goddamn, you can now use a glitch to max out your rupee counter in under 5 minutes in #Zelda #TearsoftheKingdom. This game is so busted lol

Hmm something doesn’t look right here…

#Zelda #TearsoftheKingdom

After a recent incident and the feeling that I seem to drive people away whenever they actually get to know me, I’m on the verge of just quitting the internet altogether.

I feel like the world would be better without me, and that my presence just seems to unintentionally hurt others.

So if I vanish from Twitter, Reddit, Facebook, YouTube, Mastodon, etc, that’s why.

Goodbye.

I have officially now reached 100% completion in #Zelda #TearsoftheKingdom.

Full map completion, all shrines and Korok seeds, full compendium, all armour fully upgraded, all caves cleared, all overworld bosses defeated at least once, all quests etc

@golemwire yeah it’s weird. Made for a very confusing situation on Zelda Wiki too:

For a visual…

Lol this is so true!

#Zelda #TearsoftheKingdom

Lol this looks so ridiculous!
