I went around and unlocked all the towers and found all the stables before I did 3/4 of the regional quests and ended up with it pretty early on. I haven't needed it that many times, but it's been invaluable the few times I needed it.

I like them both for different reasons and in different ways. In BOTW I liked the champions better, felt more of a connection to them. Also Revali's Gale was the best. In TOTK, I am really loving the device building and fusing in general. I miss some of the weapons from BOTW but it's great being able to fuse different objects for different effects.

You can cheese both in various ways if you want (Revali's Gale, or a Hover Bike, can get you pretty much anywhere).

TOTK seems to have a lot more stuff around everywhere, on the ground, in the depths, and the sky. It's even more fun to explore than it was in BOTW in some cases. Also Tears of the Kingdom / Tiers of the Kingdom is a great pun/double meaning.

Also the froggy suit finally lets you climb wet surfaces (and ice) without slipping.

I don't like the grinding materials to upgrade armor in either one, though. So TOTK wins because I'm a cheating cheater who refuses to update the game so I can keep duping materials as I don't have months to spend hunting down and killing monsters.

If you like that, check out Recursive Sans & Mono

I wouldn't pick it over Fira Code but it has a bit of whimsy to it that reminds me of Comic Mono.

Imagine the drama if Mayim becomes the full time Jeopardy host and then Ken became the new Wheel of Fortune host!

Or the cheers if Mayim took over Wheel and Ken took over J!

She's hosted a couple times and been OK, but it felt like she wasn't all that happy doing it. She may be ready to retire as well after 40+ years. Still she may end up there for a bit while they decide. I get the feeling they're setting up Pat's daughter to take over for Vanna.

 

I don't watch it as regularly as Jeopardy! but I am curious who they will pick to host and hopefully there is less drama involved with this one.

I watched it when it first aired and liked it, and I have the DVD set and rewatched it a year or two ago. The CGI doesn't hold up well at all, but the practical stuff like the fighters on sets were good. You can tell they ran out of budget as they went, less space and more ground work.

It looks alright. I might give it a try. I tested out a bunch of different mono fonts recently and landed on Fira Code. I'm still getting used to ligatures but so far I'm liking it more than I expected.

Nothing at the moment on the Steam Deck, still working my way through Tears of the Kingdom on Switch.

Before TOTK I was going back and forth between the recent Sackboy: A Big Adventure port and Pedestrian. Before that I played through the Spider-Man and Miles Morales ports as well.

Not to mention all the various emulation I've setup and been experimenting with, I can't even remember all the games I was testing out there, dozens of them!
