Questions from Discord:  

• RaxonXVI: So with the new look for OoT, what is your favorite design for Link? Mine’s still [Breath of the Wild] personally [as] he just looks so cool. ^^ (Also, that blue is my favorite color lol.) [I added a link for us to compare styles: https://www.reddit.com/r/zelda/comments/qy9ug2/all_i_made_a_chart_showing_the_evolution_of_link/ ]

• jtlawbass the unc: What is a franchise blind spot you have where there’s a popular franchise that a lot of people talk about but you’ve never played one of the games? Mine is Resident Evil. Have never played an RE game even though I have seen all of the movies (live action and animated) and am going to see the new one on Friday night. Just haven’t played any of the games.  

What we’re playing: 

Mary: Story of Seasons: Grand Bazaar, Dragon Age: Inquisition, Dead by Daylight, and NOT Love and Deepspace  

John: Baldur’s Gate 3, Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream

Greg: Marvel Rivals random Switch 1 games  

Brett L: Splatoon Raiders, Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy
