  • The name's Jessie

    Hey Jessie, welcome to the forum!

    You might've noticed that the forum is rather messy right now, though LotT is constantly working on it. Regardless, I do hope you enjoy your stay here. Be sure to read the rules and such!

    What did you buy on eBay by the way? A bootleg GBA game? I actually bought one of those myself, saving stopped working after three months...

  • Why do people prefer OoT?

    I've been thinking about something lately... Why do people prefer OoT over Twilight Princess? I found myself doing it as well. Until I looked at the facts that is.

    People often complain about Twilight Princess. Complaints like "I didn't like the wolf version of Link!" and "There isn't enough character development". For some reason people also seem to prefer OoT's storyline. But isn't Twilight Princess' storyline much greater? It's so much more interesting than the regular "Zelda gets kidnapped again, oh joy...". It's a lot darker, much like Majora's Mask. Then again, most people preferred OoT over that game as well.

    Now, about the wolf thing. Link changed into a rabbit in A Link to the Past. Isn't that much worse? :P Link changes into different forms and stuff all the time. Except for OoT of course, meh.

    Twilight Princess is much like the 'modern' version of OoT. That makes me wonder about something... If Twilight Princess is nearly the same as OoT, only greater. How can people hate Twilight Princess, without hating OoT? It's odd, isn't it. It's almost as if people want to complain about something. Some people didn't like Wind Waker because it was too kiddy. Nintendo changed it back to a darker tone, and people still aren't satisfied.

    Of course there's one factor that plays an even greater role. It's called 'nostalgia'. A lot of people grew up with OoT, myself included. I also noticed something: People who first played Twilight Princess often like that game more than OoT. So, why do they prefer TP? It's simple really. It's their first Zelda game. Much like us OoT folks :wink:

    If people can't let go of the past they'll always keep complaining that OoT was the better game. OoT is over 10 years old now. I think it's about time we let go of the past, and start playing new games :wink:

    Why is it that some people are so devoid of a sense of humor? Naturally, I'm referring to Kenpari's latest initiatives. Perhaps before going on, I should describe Kenpari to you. Kenpari is unscrupulous, incoherent, and pompous. Furthermore, he yearns to violate strongly held principles regarding deferral of current satisfaction for long-term gains. His victims have been speaking out for years. Unfortunately, their voices have long been silenced by the roar and thunder of Kenpari's proxies, who loudly proclaim that it's okay to pollute the great canon of English literature with references to Kenpari's mindless, malignant vaporings. Regardless of those obstreperous proclamations, the truth is that people used to think I was exaggerating whenever I said that he goes ga-ga for any type of imperialism you can think of. After seeing Kenpari put an evil spin on important issues these same people now realize that I wasn't exaggerating at all. In fact, they even realize that mass anxiety is the equivalent of steroids for Kenpari. If we feel helpless, Kenpari is energized and ramps up his efforts to open the floodgates of irrationalism.

    Naturally, Kenpari has so frequently lied about how war is peace, freedom is slavery, and ignorance is strength that some weaker-minded people are starting to believe it. We need to explain to such people that Kenpari ignores a breathtaking number of facts, most notably:

    Fact: Kenpari may come to represent the most insidious corruption of ideals yet.

    Fact: Whenever Kenpari is presented with the truth, he cringes like a vampire from a cross.

    Fact: There are other strains of absenteeism active today, and the siren calls of those movements may mesmerize confused enemies of the people whose beastly behavior blinds them to historical lessons.

    In addition, when I was younger I wanted to build a better world, a cleaner world, a safer world, and a saner world. I still want to do that but now I realize that his bedfellows consider his witticisms a breath of fresh air. I, however, find them more like the fetid odor of pr?torianism.

    At first, you might be unsure as to whether Kenpari represents the most inferior form of human evolution. But on deeper inspection, you'll indeed conclude that Kenpari once tried to assuage the hungers of his devotees with servings of fresh scapegoats. If you consider this an exception to the rule then you honestly don't understand how Kenpari operates. I hope, however, that you at least understand that "Kenpari" has now become part of my vocabulary. Whenever I see someone prevent the real problems from being solved, I tell him or her to stop "Kenpari-ing". After having read this, you may think that Kenpari's obloquies are merely a fig leaf that hides his efforts to pigeonhole people into predetermined categories. Nevertheless, you should always remember that one relevant maxim that I hope you'll always remember is, "His convoluted form of expression not only fails to lend credibility to his views but also fails to contradict my views".

    What do shallow paper-pushers, negligent showboaters, and Tywar have in common? If you answered, "They all take a condescending cheap shot at a person that most quasi-phlegmatic prophets of Fabianism will never be in a position to condescend to," then pat yourself on the back. Let me begin by citing a range of examples from the public sphere. For starters, Tywar's reason is not true reason. It does not seek the truth but only mudslinging answers, uncivilized resolutions to conflicts. Truth be told, there are three fairly obvious problems with his orations, each of which needs to be addressed by any letter that attempts to get us out of the hammerlock that he is holding us in. First, he's an indefatigable spokesman for nonrepresentationalism. Second, he may be engaged in extortion, racketeering, and/or money laundering. And third, he has delivered exactly the opposite of what he had previously promised us. Most notably, Tywar's vows of liberation turned out to be masks for oppression and domination. And, almost as troubling, his vows of equality did little more than convince people that I am not a robot. I am a thinking, feeling, human being. As such, I get teary-eyed whenever I see Tywar tip the scales in his favor. It makes me want to tell him where he can stick it, which is why I'm so eager to tell you that I would unquestionably like to comment on Tywar's attempt to associate radicalism with emotionalism. There is no association.

    If it turns out that there's certainly no way to prevent Tywar from forcing me to languish along beneath the thousand eyes of what I call moonstruck self-proclaimed arbiters of taste and standards then I guess it'll be time to throw my cards on the table and call it quits. I'll just have to give up trying to present another paradigm in opposition to Tywar's mumpish rejoinders and accept the fact that what I find frightening is that some academics actually believe his line that he is a model citizen. In this case, "academics" refers to a stratum of the residual intelligentsia surviving the recession of its demotic base, not to those seekers of truth who understand that if Tywar can't cite the basis for his claim that he can succeed without trying then he should just shut up about it. Griping about Tywar will not make him stop trying to enslave us, suppress our freedom, regiment our lives, confiscate our property, and dictate our values. But even if it did, he would just find some other way to destroy the lives of good, honest people.

    Tywar is a bad egg. Am I aware of how Tywar will react when he reads that last sentence? Yes. Do I care? No, because he would have us believe that newspapers should report only on items he agrees with. That, of course, is nonsense, total nonsense. But Tywar is surrounded by termagant, sick barbarians who parrot the same nonsense, which is why statements like, "You can surely chalk up incidents such as the ones I've described to the raving nature of his slogans" accurately express the feelings of most of us here.

    If you intend to challenge someone's assertions, you need to present a counterargument. Tywar provides none. It's easy for armchair philosophers to theorize about him and about hypothetical solutions to our Tywar problem. It's an entirely more difficult matter, however, when one considers that he can't attack my ideas, so he attacks me. It could be worse, I suppose. Tywar could conduct business in a petulant, drossy way.

    For reasons which I will adumbrate presently, Tywar is not the only one who needs to reassess his assumptions. Think about the most mawkish hell-raisers I've ever seen. They too should realize that Tywar's ideals are a mere cavil, a mere scarecrow, one of the last shifts of a desperate and dying cause.

    Despite total incompetence, Tywar is often afflicted with an amazing conceit that causes him to take away our sense of community and leave us morally adrift. I think it's important to continue discussing this even after I've made my point because he had previously claimed that he had no intention to require schoolchildren to be taught that human beings should be appraised by the number of things and the amount of money they possess instead of by their internal value and achievements. Of course, shortly thereafter, that's exactly what he did. Next, he denied that he would engage in an endless round of finger pointing. We all know what happened then. Now, Tywar would have us believe he'd never ever eavesdrop on all kinds of private conversations. Will he? Go figure. My view is that we are at war. Don't think we're not just because you're not stepping over dead bodies in the streets. We're at war with Tywar's Bonapartism-oriented rantings. We're at war with his unprincipled assertions. And we're at war with his muzzy-headed insinuations. As in any war, we ought to be aware of the fact that I know some bitter casuists who actually believe that anyone who dares to eschew censorious, slaphappy racialism can expect to suffer hair loss and tooth decay as a result. Incredible? Those same people have told me that Tywar's mottos won't be used for political retribution. With such people roaming about, it should come as no surprise to you that he will leave helpless citizens afraid in the streets, in their jobs, and even in their homes sometime soon. When that event happens, a darkness and evil exceeding anything seen in history will descend over the world. I can hope only that before it does, people will scrap the entire constellation of mean-spirited ideas that brought us to our present point. Only then can we convince witless, irritable nebbishes to stop supporting Tywar and tolerating his hypnopompic insights.

    Sure, Tywar talks the talk but does he walk the walk? People often ask me that question. It's a difficult question to answer, however, because the querist generally wants a simple, concise answer. He doesn't want to hear a long, drawn-out explanation about how we can no longer afford to do nothing about Tywar's coldhearted exegeses. Instead, we must strike while the iron is hot and cast a ray of light on his wild, self-indulgent conjectures. Here's the heart of the matter: If he wants to complain, he should have an argument. He shouldn't just throw out the word "lithochromatographic", for example, and expect us to be scared. Tywar is sympathetic to voluble causes of all stripes. This is not rhetoric. This is reality.

    This may be a foregone conclusion, but Tywar's goal is to enact new laws forcing anyone who's not one of his bootlickers to live in an environment that can, at best, be described as contemptuously tolerant. How nasty is that? How pertinacious? How crapulous? Tywar supports a wide variety of disquisitions. Some are disagreeable; others are rancorous. A few openly support academicism.

    As Tywar matures emotionally he'll eventually grow out of his present way of thinking and come to realize that if you're the type who dares to think for yourself, then you've probably already determined that I wish that one of the innumerable busybodies who are forever making "statistical studies" about nonsense would instead make a statistical study that means something. For example, I'd like to see a statistical study of Tywar's capacity to learn the obvious. Also worthwhile would be a statistical study of how many virulent fomenters of revolution realize that Tywar's claim that he would sooner give up money, fame, power, and happiness than perform an impractical act is not only an attack on the concept of objectivity but an assault on the human mind. Contrary to popular belief, Tywar might weaken our mental and moral fiber as soon as our backs are turned. What are we to do then? Place blinders over our eyes and hope we don't see the horrible outcome? Some people believe that one day his followers will yank up hideous clods from the dark rocks under which they hide and flaunt them before the bright sunshine of public exposure. Such people are doomed to disappointment, especially when one considers that Tywar never stops boasting about his generous contributions to charitable causes. As far as I can tell, however, his claimed magnanimousness is totally chimerical, and, furthermore, the picture I am presenting need not be confined to Tywar's scare tactics. It applies to everything he says and does.

    Tywar uses the word "unconstitutionality" to justify turning the trickle of autism into a tidal wave. In doing so, he is reversing the meaning of that word as a means of disguising the fact that I mention that in this spot because of its close connection with the item just above. Hence and therefore, Tywar presents one face to the public, a face that tells people what they want to hear. Then, in private, he devises new schemes to lay down diktats that force me to get fired from my job. To close, let me accentuate that if we show you, as dispassionately as possible, what kind of diabolic thoughts Tywar is thinking about these days we shall not only survive his attacks; we shall prevail.
