Good Morning CyberPups! It's time for the weekly schedule! And probably as a shock to absolutely no one, the next week of streams besides Dogwave on Sunday is OCARINA OF TIME REMAKE, I'm having too much fun with it! See you all then!

Ya know I thought about it but why has Zelda has a franchise not explored other locales in the main land, yes I know Termina, The Dark World, Koholint Island and The World of the Ocean King, etc, but those are either alternative dimensions or dream worlds.
But within the main "canon" of Zelda, it's always Hyrule, meanwhile within the Mario mythos, there are several kingdoms and lands, but within Zelda, it's always A Hyrule of some kind, with the most drastic ones being Wind Waker's Great Sea and Spirit Tracks's New Hyrule, but even then, those are built off the bones of Hyrule.
Just a late night thought.

I think I've come to a conclusion. I dunno how right I'll be with it but I'm pretty sure the reason I've been this gaming slump this year outside of streams is due to the constant doom and gloom.
I'll use recent examples. Castlevania: Belmont's Curse and Zelda: Ocarina of Time Remake.
I understand both have problems and aren't perfect games, especially in the case of Belmont's Curse, good god those issues are glaring.
Actually a better example over Belmont's Curse is the Paper Mario: Thousand Year Door Remaster, and before I continue, I must make my point clear, just because of what I'm about to say does not remove the fact that these Remakes and Remasters are not perfect, they have issues.
But I remember picking up Thousand Year Door Remastered after doing my own digging into the whole controversy around Vivian and came to my own conclusion that everything was out of control and it wasn't ACTUALLY the case in the full release, but nigh-everyone I looked at on Twitter/X during it's time of release really soured the experience and made me not want to play it, as such I did put it down for a couple of months.
And seeing the issues everyone is pointing out about OoT Remake as well is kind of having that same effect, the only saving grace is I'm streaming it. I still REALLY enjoy it but it does minorly sour the experience.
Now this is not me wanting a hug box, I'm merely being vocal about what I think the issue is with how I feel, cause my backlog has grown exponentially this past year and I feel like I haven't made a dent. Because I know I really enjoyed Boltgun 2 when it came out, but then all the Twitter Drama around it came out and it made me not want to resume my second playthrough.
Anyway yeah, just ranting, getting my thoughts out.
