The person eating it?

Believe it or not, cake.

It was very nearby and not like a deep forest or anything, so it might sound a lot creepier that the reality.

Grandma was indeed awesome!

My american mother was basically the initializer of halloween celebration in my home place. My brothers and I had parties with our classmates and went around to our parents trick or treating. My parents always made a ton of decorations and told spooky stories. My grandma hid in a nearby woods with a small candlelight and gave treats to whoever dared approaching.

That was almost 30 years ago, but to this day my parent's house is still "the Halloween house" of the town.

Maybe it's not considered to be an easter egg, but Earthbound's DRM didn't prevent you from playing, but rather made the game extremely grindy and obnoxious. And during the final fight, the game crashes.

I was subject to this. Looking at playthroughs afterwards made me facepalm. I had been grinding each area for maybe 1-2 hours extra just to be able to proceed. And people were walking to the first boss after basically no grinding.

Jokes on them, since I still loved the game.

For me it's a skateboarder. Doing kickflips into grinding the rails and using the environment as ramps and obstacles. Tunnels suck.

After about 60 shrines, I realized that a simple platform and recall is the solution to maybe 75% of the puzzles.

Reach a place? Move platform and recall.

Stop a moving object? Recall and cancel.

Enemy throws something at you? Recall it.

Etc. (Because I can't remember other examples, but this covers a lot)

I turned 123 years just about half a year ago for most sites I've registered to.

I guess my favorite games are terrible for you, since I don't care at all about storylines in my games while you seem to be quite the opposite.

I love the hyrule open area, but I hope that they move on to a new region. I know it's kinda out of the series to not have the common land marks, but it would be nice to introduce something completely different.

I loved WW, so maybe it could be fun with a game based on huge oceans which have different levels and tides, such that familiar areas reveal lower levels at different tides.

Even though I like the mechanic of climbing and being able to go anywhere, it seems to be a pretty heavily limiting factor for interesting map design. I'm just worried that the Zelda series will never be able to go back to a more "closed" world.

I enjoy it so far, but I am noticing that the userbase is currently a lot smaller and thus there are fewer posts and comments. Also, the niche interests are very thinly represented. For instance, I enjoyed following the valheim subreddit to get up to speed with updates and see fun creations. Lemmy has basically no community for valheim. The same goes for other narrow subjects. I expect this to grow along with the popularity of Lemmy, but it's currently a bit shallow.

I feel like they could solve it by adding instance only when another user with similar name is present in the comment section. It would make it clear that a duplicate username is present without changing a lot for a majority of lemmy-commenr sections.
