Twilight Princess log, day 001

First, DON'T SPOIL ME ON COMMENTS. My brothers will do that on Christmas ¬¬

Second, um, I'm kinda slow and clumsy with videogames, so I just know it'll take me ages to pass this game. Especially since I'm not the kind to play like 12 hours in a row each day. You know, I'm a Gemini, and that brings some level of short attention span.

Okay then. My "advances" for yesterday. Although they're not really "advances" because I haven't fucking left the fucking village.

This Link has been nicknamed as "el paleto" (in Spain slang, that's the way dumb or rude country people is refered as; think of it as rednecks but without the racist issues, or as Cletus in The Simpsons), but in an affectionated, tender way. Because his face is so cute you kind of forgive the outfit and the possibility of him smelling like goats and horseshit.

But he's still cute as a button :3 And ugly as the paleto clothes are, he's hot damn.

And huge flashback from OoT when we see his house is UP A TREE. However, the surprises inside are so exciting. Well, not the lack of pots to smash and get Rupees from, but yeah. The first WTF moment was to find bookshelves in his house. WTF Link, you're a paleto farmboy! Can you read?! The idea of Link with books is so hot... Maybe they're all about like horseriding and making goat cheese and porn, but they're still books!

Second, this is the most comfy Link's house ever. With frames of people (and goats) and stuff around, you know. There are several levels of stairs, and a window to peek at his neighbors (if he had them, because the antisocial dork lives outside town, but he can still peek at his stalkers).

Third, the basement is creepy and dark EEH. Let's hope I can go back someday with my new shiny lantern, because I get the feeling there must be a hidden chest or a wall to be exploded with bombs -and a hidden chest behind it.

So we get to meet the boss, who tells me to go fetch Epona to work. Except Epona is at the fountain on the forest -yay, let's break rocks on the way there!- with Love Interest Numero Uno. Yeah, childhood friend, I bet it's normal to heal your hot friend's horse just to be nice. LOL paleto-style flirting!

So I go to the ranch/farm thing, but before I set myself to meet the neighborhood and be annoyed by the villagers. OMG! Cuckos! Most houses are locked so I get bored and go to work. Bummer.

Stupid buffalos. I mean goats. Why goats?! They don't look like goats! It's like saying Appa looks like a six-armed hippo or something. Oh, and one of them is temperamental, whoo boy.

I hate the new dash system when jumping. And dammit, boss. Who practices jumps on a horse at night?! If Link wasn't so speshul, he could've fallen from Epona and die, you know.

Next day of DOOM. Are all his days off like this? Because DUDE. I thought I had fallen on a loop of sorts: "want to buy the slingshot, but I need the cat, but I need a fish, but I need the fishing rod, but I need the cradle, but how do I get it from the baboon? slingshot! noooooooes!"

Yeah, it took me a while to check gamefaqs think about the falcon, even though I had already used the whistle weed thing for the beehive. I'm that slow.

Love Interest is in her room. Boring. Took me three times to stop the buf-- goat. And I didn't win anything from it? Bummer.

Is Colin Creevey really that shy, or does he need special education? Because you know, the village kids are next to him and he's talking to Epona. Or are they mean bullies to him?

I liked how the village kids were all drooling over Link's mad skillz, and the girl was all "oh please, you're so childi--- OMG YAY! Er, yeah, do that now for them, you know, whatever." Girl has a crush on Link, totally. Then again, who doesn't. Maybe Colin does too, that would explain a LOT. However, the slingshot aim is so annoying. It took me so many seeds to understand I have to put things on tne center of the goddamn screen.

Ooh, a present, maybe it's a Playboy suscription! I hope so, he spends too much time with the horse and the goats...

Yay wooden sword get! And the fans (aka, village kids) rejoiced!

And of course, I turn around for a moment and the whole fanclub disappears. Are we really sure it's his day off??

Lamp with oil. So retro.

ARGH BATS IN THE DARK bartending?. So retro, too.

World map, you so mean. I thought red forbidden signs meant I couldn't go there. YOU SUCK. You made me waste so much time jumping around.

First formal enemies are so Wind Waker.

And so, I'll be saving the damn fanboy today. *salutes*

Please don't make me go to El Corte Inglés with pocket money. I went to check if they had gotten OMG A GAMECUBE GAME the Zelda, and hey look, they apparently didn't. You do suck, ECI.

However, I left the store with Equal Rites by Teh Pterry (he deserves more money, with all that shit he's getting from the batshit pro-Rowling 'journalists'). Yay, finally. And I also bought a reference Larousse book about English grammar, because it could be helpful.

Este, I'll pay you my hosting after the holidays ;____; I still need to buy some more presents, and my Wiimote's Numchuck. Woe.

Tranquila, si tardas eones en pasártelo no te lo tomes como que eres torpe... es que dicen por ahí que la dificultad del juego es infernal, todos los que conozco que están jugando lo afirman. Aunque no soy Zelda-fan, sólo probé a pescar un rato con el Wiimote en la versión de Wii y la verdad es que sólo eso ya costaba bastante ^^u

(aunque tampoco es que yo sea la más hábil del mundo, el Kingdom Hearts II me lo está recordando... lo mío son los RPGs por turnos XD)

Buff, es que pescar es una tortura china.

Yo es que soy torpe en todo género de consola :D Tengo todo RPG que he empezado en medio del primer disco o casi al principio si sólo tenía uno. En plataformas no soy particularmente mejor.

KH1 lo tengo aún en medio del mundo de Tarzán... O lo tenía hasta que sobreescribieron accidentalmente mi file. Ahora voy otra vez por Alicia.

Una de las mejores cosas definitivamente creo que Link es mucho más expresivo :3 se ve bien lindo cuando sonrie jejeje

Tampoco me gustó la resortera, creo que era mucho más sencilla de usar en OoT. Y la verdad ,creo que el juego es mucho más dificil de jugar en Wii, si en el GameCube batallo, no quiero imaginarme con el otro.

Ay sí, es de un majooooo. Qué ganas de jalarle los cachetes ^o^ Es una mejora intermedia del tengo-dos-expresiones-faciales de OoT/MM al hiperactivo-comiendo-pocky de WW. Ni mucho ni poco, lo justo.

Yo en Navidad te lo averiguo y ya te cuento. Aunque ya me veo pariendo porque siempre me cuesta adaptarme a un nuevo control.

Pongo firme mi resolución para no leer spoilers >_< Aunque la tentación es muy fuerte.
