And if by paying into those social safety nets, your family falls below a certain level, guess what, they are there for you too

The richest alone could finance a society where everyone in the country lives at your current personal level of comfort at a minimum and it wouldnt cost you a dime

Now it might END UP costing you some dimes because the rich are gonna fight it. I cant argue that. But then refer back to the first paragraph

Corporations are also the ones sending you a lot of those bills in the first place

Dont get me wrong, Im not saying Democrats care about you any more than Republicans or corporations do. But everyone should be pro-social safety nets because everyone deserves a certain standard of living just by existing.

By turning basic food and shelter and comfort into a fight between the lower class and the middle class, the rich win.

Um, yeah, many will be.

I should screen shot a post on Facebook just the other day a County DA posted complaining about her school loans that her and her husband have that are around like 200k. And how they struggle every day (mind you while posting about going to fancy restaurants and drinking wine with friends and etc all the time). They probably make a combined at least, at least, 150k a year. Own a 300k+ house. Drive nice cars. And are complaining about their school loans.

They can't pay those back? They won't be better off?

The middle class has no reason to be upset with that?


Sounds like they are already better off than most people and forgiving their loans wont change that.

Your reason to be upset with them has nothing to do with their loan debt

I thought it was super obvious. The middle class does. You are just acting like they don't.

They do about everything that isn't applied evenly.


If they did care so much about the wealthy avoiding taxes, and corporations receiving bailouts when their finances go bad, then why do they keep voting for the people that enable these practices?

Am I supposed to feel like a golden god now that I can beat guardians solely through parrying? Cause this game is really good at making me feel cool for doing so.

I mean all you need to do to balance it would be to both increase the durability substantially but not to a point where it's not an issue, and then add a way to repair items that costs some expendable resource. Like how the champion weapons can be reforged but actually good.


Might be neat if you could just permanently hold one of each weapon, they all break, but they can also all be repaired.

(And obviously you could swap out the broken one for a fresh one if you find one)

Question for the topic - is the DLC worth it? $20 doesn't seem too bad.


The first one is a big long combat section in the style of Eventide Island. Its great IMO.

The second one is story based with 16 more Shrines and an extra Divine Beast-style dungeon, but one of the mechanics it introduces and briefly forces on you is really awkward IMO.

Once you wrap up the tutorial, you can literally go anywhere. You can rush the final boss immediately if you feel like getting your ass served to you. I'm pretty sure you couldn't do that in Zelda 1, so it's different but in a way that offers even more freedom.


True. You can go to the final dungeon straight from the start in Zelda 1 but it wont let you in without the full Triforce of Wisdom

The Zelda aura does add a lot

If youre big into Zelda lore, encasing a world that references all of it, sometimes in subtle but very significant ways, really enhances the experience.

And that its all long dead and being mourned here hits hard sometimes

I think its a fair criticism because even if they can do different stuff theyre still all Bokoblins and you meet like 98% of the non-boss enemy types you will ever see in the game just on the Great Plateau. I mean it would be one thing if the bosses at least were good enough to make up for that, but they all sucked too

Wasnt sure if I should spoiler that or not at first, edited it in just to be safe


Im pretty sure this is incorrect

The only non-boss enemies on the Great Plateau that I recall are Bokoblins, Keese, Decayed Guardians, and Guardian Scouts in the Shrines

Am I forgetting something?

The over-abundance of Koroks serves the purpose of being able to find them everywhere and reward random detours, much like the abundance of stars in Super Mario Odyssey but more extreme

As the reward goes out to admit, the purpose isn't to find all the Koroks unless you're a madman.


Hey, 100% speedruns are below 24 hours now. It doesnt take TOO long <_<;
