Its crazy how chat were all like 'get the memories in order and then get the master sword after' when i got the master sword with 0 memories and didn't spoil it for myself at all, then I got like 2 memories and put it together. It's not spoiling anything, it was no different my reaction learning it that way as it would be to having the game drip feed me the clues one by one until revealing the twist explicitly, but it's more fun playing the rest of the game however i want rather than limiting myself to only visit the memories in a specific order

I give some the benefit of the doubt that maybe they got the connection since the sword disappeared to Zelda and the dragon immediately emerged (it seems obvious to me now since I know the ending but at the time I certainly missed it). But I'm certain some of those people knew and spoiled it. People are absolute shit-stains. I usually just hide chat in these kinds of streams tbh because the spoiling and backseating are unbearable.

I love how many different meanings there are for "Tears" in ToTK. There's the homophone "tiers" and there being literal tiers to the kingdom, of Hyrule, sky, ground, and depths. There's "tears" of the kingdom constantly falling from the sky that can fall on top of you and enemies. There's the dragon tears in the geoglyphs that contain memories and I'm sure there's more examples than those that I've missed. Overall I think it was a great name choice for the game.

[@dumpster86]

You can make different meanings out of it, but I’m sure they didn’t think about that too much while making the title, after all the producers and writers etc first language is Japanese

[@VixeyTeh]

​@wisdumpster86 I think you would be surprised how much thought goes into game design and building the brand, themes and concepts.

[@dumpster86]

@Vixey Teh yeah, all I’m saying is that the game was made in Japan, so it’s not super logical. 🤔 However I do accept that it definitely is a possibility, just not a super high chance

[@cleverman383]

I'm hoping the definitive edition will be called Tears of the Kingdom: Fully Torn

@@dumpster86 I actually do customer support for Nintendo and the Japanese title is the same, at least the Tears of the Kingdom part and the rest is the same just in Katakana.
