About time I updated this freaking thing!
For those who already know me, I am Monodi. Those who doesn't, well, I am Monodi.
I got such a growing passion of gaming through the years and now I am currently in college starting my courses of Game Design as well!
I consider myself a Nintendo fanboy from all my life, but I have been much more in contact with titles for PC recently. Not that I am abandoning one, but I think it pretty much could cover the best the industry has to offer.
I am up for the philosophy that gameplay is more important than graphics, but I think graphics and technology are also a crucial part of the industry and experience even.

The dialog isn't so horrible, but the quotes from OoT are clearly the best written sections. The premise of making Link so whiny and argumentative is disappointing, though.
Oh well, I'm only 17 minutes in so far. I'll see how bad it gets, or if it improves, and report back.
The sad thing is that this looks like it had a decent sized budget for what it is, and they pissed it away with poor casting, poor acting, unfaithful references to the source material, the fact that its cheesy as all hell and shitty CGI. I feel like they tried to do too much...and that boss fight montage was embarrassing.
It felt like they put Lord of the Rings, Zelda and Harry Potter into a blender.
