also: comments OK!
Finally sat down and wrote about the new Zelda:
a delightful puzzle (review of The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom)
Think this’ll be next on my list! Good review
As a randomizer sicko this is a recommendation targeted at me. I was considering picking this game up for an upcoming trip, but then I heard about the egregious performance issues and battery drain particularly on launch models and undocked, and I have a launch model… Will have to look into if the game’s gotten patched when my trip approaches.
I have a very high tolerance for framerate drops and the like, so I don’t think I ever noticed it except for maybe one instance, but if you’re more discerning than me on that front, I think it’s likely to be a rough time for you, especially on a launch Switch. There was a recent patch of some kind (saw it briefly when firing up the system) but no clue what it addressed. 
Oh yeah, I usually have a high tolerance for choppy performance and I’m especially used to it on the Switch, but with this game I saw reports of it outright making overheat warnings kick in on docked systems and draining undocked battery in record time. 
That was at launch so hopefully it’s been patched…
New post that I’ve been sitting on for too long mentally:
wool words (fashion and art as speech)
I kind of let myself publish this at a point where it feels “unfinished” and honestly feel kind of scared about that! Could make another good post, really…
because…in all honesty, sometimes I just think it communicates to others that I’m Some Centrist White Girl, and the thought of that makes me sick.
damn so true. so true.

My mini-review of FFII keeps rattling around in my head lately and I felt the need to Write Something.

spoilers for all three MOTHER games
It’s been a long time coming, but I’ve finished the MOTHER series. Truly wonderful games and I hope they never make another one.
