What about this vid?

@@Nerdporealsimply incredible. Attention paid to story details I didn’t even notice.

Im retelling the story as an epic and showing how I chose to play the game. This is not a walkthrough, there is commentary throughout. There are chapters if you wanna skip the story. You are getting my authentic experience here. Imagine it as almost a movie. A lot of us do not have the time to replay these games anymore and this is another way to experience it. Thing of it like that.

@@Nerdporeal Okay. I can see that spin on it.

I wanted to like it.

@Nerdporeal I know. I want good movies too.

Kinda like Star Trek, you go out there in the hazards of deep space, you want the best from all of earth. Still merit. Youre not the first to criticize that take.

Its been awhile but are you certain it was never addressed in the story?

@Nerdporeal the invasion of Phezzan faced literally zero resistance. I thought I was initially going insane because surely there's something there that must have prevented either side from attempting it before...and there was literally nothing. Just a few guys in the sky elevator in utter disbelief. There are a bunch of things poorly put together, it's clear that they wanted the story to go in a certain direction but didn't plan it all out ahead of time and forgot key details. With some editing, it can be truly a masterpiece but when you just think of Phezzan alone, it still boggles my mind. Everyone, literally billions of people, involved in the military overlooked the key detail that the alternative route to the enemy is completely defenseless. It wasn't even considered once. It's was so unimaginable that members of Phezzan's government were shocked that Reinhard even suggested it. Essentially making Reinhard smart only because everyone else is stupid. Easily fixable but still just one of many insane plot holes.

Perhaps both sides benefited too much to even consider it? The ability to wage war as an institution?

@@Nerdporeal no, the story made it clear that each side was sometimes losing millions of living in fruitless battles over the Iserlohn corridor. If it was beneficial to not attack the utterly defenseless Phezzan we would've known said reason in the story, instead it doesn't exist and the reason for the attack is literally because no one thought of it before and everyone assumed it for some reason would not work. The only cited reason against it that I recall is the supposed freedom loving nature of the Phezzani but they just immediately accepted imperial rule. The only resistance came from the exiled leader and...like 5 merchants that only relayed information to Iserlohn. It seems to be that the Artermis Necklace was initially intended as being part of the defense system for Phezzan but the writer either forgot or intentionally removed all defenses from the planet to speed up the timeline. He just didn't consider the world building issues this would cause.

HiDive

Thanks buddy. I will get to making them.

I figured haha

Made me appreciate history and strategy and poltiics for sure!

Remake of Links Awakening, Majoras Mask, Oracle games and og links awakening are on Switch Online. Minish Cap is also great and available on switch online if you love this one.

@ screenshotting this 🫡. Thank you I’ll check them out. I tried Majoras Mask I honestly couldn’t figure it out lol. I may give it another shot. Wanted to progress without help.

I am

No Way!

Yes.

I know right?!

Glad you found me! I have a few other classics on the channel to check out when you have time.

I want a Switch 2 remake of the oracle games and an hd remake of ocarina. Check out my 5 hour ocarina of time video if you liked this vid.

Favorite moments?

@@Nerdporeal the start ❤️

@aaroncull1542 prologue....i say it in the vid

@@Nerdporeal the start as in the game play ❤️

And how old are you 🤔

The game or the emulator or the computer?

I mean, its going from point A on one side of the island/world to point b on the opposing side with the usual biome environments that makes up a game like this with random encounters obnoxiously annoying and lots of empty space......but there are the elementals and treasure chests to find to somewhat help incentivize the exploration. Plus...you get to play as BRIAN! Still Interested?

Best Retrospective too?

I am totally with you there. I probably wouldnt be nearly as interested in philosophy and politics had i not watched this. I consider this high brow entertainment

You should revisit them

Worth the purchase

Thanks for checking this one out in the vast sea of KZbin. Truly appreciate it.

That's the nature of chillporeal. I tagged you (invited you) in particular on X for this reason. People in the chat are most certainly part of the stream and the conversation. I really appreciate you actually checking out the stream and not just liking my post haha. I try to do these weekly with different guests and have a great time doing it. Merry Christmas!

Best Zelda......retrospective?

That the movie notably addresses

@@Nerdporeal The Krell machine reminds me of what AI could become.

@Sarconthewolf Create monsters of the id?

Yup. The Krell device reincarnated him and turned him into Rojan where he encounters Capt Kirk and The Enterprise and literally hijacks the vessel and captures the crew turning them all into crystal shards.

Yup girlbosses took over

I think Ocarina would be a close contender

Check out the Ocarina of Time one i did. That one is 5 hours

Me too. I was like LETS GO in the last few chapters

When i like what i read.....

Thanks

Thanks for joining us buddy

Oh boy, did you see Beneath? Oh Boy.....

Thanks for checking this one out. I do have a few other classics on my channel to check out at your leisure

Retrospective? Of course! haha

Well....it is California....criminals are treated way better than normal citizens.

Yes. The whole to be continued bit is from the Borg 2 parter of next generation. The last time on.....i got from star trek 2 parters lol. Im breaking new ground! I am planning to be live a week from this Sunday evening talking about the second half of LOC. (Egwene just got a new Seat is where im currently at)

Btw are you subbed to my copanelists?

Yeah, Picard says Merde in TNG

I saw your comment on my TGH part 1 stream. Did you listen to the ones in between? Hail! (Currently reading Lord of Chaos, at the halfway point)

@ yes, just discovered these so I started from the beginning

Thank you. I hope you enjoy them. My friends are experts and they have enhanced my reading experience.

@ I am enjoying them. I’m just happy more people are getting turned on to these books.
