♦ Rules ♦


1. Stay Civil

This is a place for friendly discussion, memes, guides, art, gameplay questions, screenshots and the like. Discrimination and harrassment won't be tolerated.


2. Mark Spoilers

It is okay to post about "related games" (such as Age of Calamity and Breath of the Wild) but please use the spoiler "censor" and do not put spoilers directly into the title, as the censor doesn't work this way. Posts about other Zelda games might be suited better in general Zelda communities, like the ones listed at the bottom of the sidebar.

PS: if you need a little help for HOW to use spoiler tags, look here.


3. Offtopic Posts

Anything not related to the community theme, like politics, religion, non-Zelda games etc. is better suited elsewhere and will be removed. The same goes for NSFW material.


4. No Advertisements

It is okay to post about merchandise, but links to those "design your own merch" sites will be removed, as those are almost always scams featuring stolen art. Affliate links will be removed as well. This isn't Etsy.


5. Provide Sources

If you're going to post art, comics, guides, screenshots etc. that are not your own OC, please mention the name of the original creator and ideally also a link to their portfolio/website. (Pinterest is almost never the original source)


6. Suggestions are Welcome!

Feedback, requests for improvements and constructive criticism are always appreciated ;)

"Oop, Switch's getting low on memory again"

Somehow, the bokoblins returned.

It seems to happen more often than in BotW too. Maybe it’s just me.

The more you run around and interact with stuff (i.e. fight, kill, loot, destroy, move) the more often it happens. So yes, it indeed is you, in a way.

I'm walking and riding around in both games doing nothing but sightseeing, and I rarely see a blood moon.

The blood moon is used as a way to reset the game state and clean unused assets. TotK has more assets that clog memory so it happens more often in this game.

Oi Link, ya wanka! Look out, it's a bloody blood moon that's what! Get on with it plonker!

I thought this was Terraria at first...

Does she show her boobs to the moon? Every time I see the blood moon sequence I think she pulled down her top.

But why?

The blood part is actually a nosebleed.

The dress cuts lower in the back than in the front?
