#GUHH there’s a lot of passion and hard work that went into botw and even hwaoc (although not on the same level) and I wanna articulate that

[botwstoriesandsuch]

4am and thinking about the writing and story of botw and age of calamity again oh no history does repeat itself

#deja vu #someone replied to one of my posts criticizing hwaoc’s writing and they said something along the lines of #‘the bar already so low with Botw and now it’s even worse lol’ #and now I’m here stuck thinking about how WRONG that is because literally the exact opposite is true fuck I’ve created a monster #people are subject to their own opinions and that’s great but also #writer brain is telling me to express why exactly botw and hell even aspects of hwaoc’s writing works #because it’s easy enough to identify what doesn’t work in a story but it’s an entirely different process highlighting the strengths #because the fact is that good writing is supposed to be the stuff that you don’t immediately notice #and that’s why critical comments are so much easier and more commonly seen no matter what the quality of media is. negative value/weight #or whatever that principal is called #like I can dedicate all weak to explaining every nuance and flaw and improvement to a game but realistically #the creators of that game probably poured more time and effort into something than in the hour or some it takes me to review it #week* #GUHH there’s a lot of passion and hard work that went into botw and even hwaoc (although not on the same level) and I wanna articulate that #in a means that still highlights its flaws and terrible terrible mistakes #but I ALSO a don’t want to people to think that those mistakes out weigh it’s enjoyability #but I ALSO want people to understand and appreciate the processes and details and thereby raise their standards for the future #but also this is a ZELDA HYRULE WARRIORS GAME what and I DOING with my life but ALSO that’s not an EXCUSE because BOTW is right THERE #and ALSO I need to not look like an narcissistic asshole and convey these thoughts in an articulate and understandable and NOT BORING way #can I just force project my thoughts and passions on this so we can save time here what is a Kip to do #lots of tags very sorry
