Evidently Breath of the Wild has a hidden experience system which is used to determine the ranks of enemies and weapons that appear.

This technically makes Breath of the Wild an RPG LOL.

Actually, I've been playing through Breath of the Wild again recently. Trying to 100% it before Age of Calamity, but don't know if that will happen. Plan on playing Luigi's Mansion 3 this weekend (I've had it for a while, never got around to beating it). My backlog is actually pretty huge now too, so I have no shortage of things to play LOL.

I got those down pretty easily, the key with that stuff is just patience and taking your time. With Shadow Mario, the key is to get the perfect distance for nonstop spraying to take out a majority if not 100% of his health. And the boat is just taking your time with the spraying and understanding the mechanics of the boat steering itself.

I started 64 on the collection a bit ago, but then Crash 4 happened and well... sorry Mario. You’re third string compared to the orange marsupial. After I finish 100% ing it then I’ll probably get back to Mario..... after I finish Lollipop Chainsaw.

Yeah, it really is. My bad. My brain just associates RPG with EXP and leveling up. Is there a term for an RPG with EXP?

Don't think so. RPG is a pretty generic term by itself(technically speaking it applies to even stuff like Visual Novels because yes you are RP'ing a specific character in a game), it's moreso that the games that are made in that genre follow similar trends that we've gotten used to (just look at how people think of RPGs that handle not having exp badly like Paper Mario for example)

Video game genres are pretty poorly defined in general and RPGs are a big example of that. Most games we call RPGs aren't even really centered around role playing. At this point it's basically the "borrows elements and mechanics from Dungeons and Dragons" genre.

I personally don't consider Zelda games to be RPGs but BotW gets close.

That's my opinion on the Zelda series, too. Except for Zelda II, that's definitely an RPG.

Fallen Angel, no matter the difficulty, are the most lamest enemies to fight of the bunch.

Atleast Lust/Red Reaper & Arachne make me rage or at the very least think. Fallen Angel are just a game of "use Hammer when they don't attack, try to parry when they atttack, rinse & repeat".

Beside those jokers, I defeated Lady, the endgame is approaching.

Episode 1 of Helluva Boss arrives this Saturday (and being on Halloween is the perfect choice)

The wait is almost over!

Another Halloween drawing I did. It's an alternate design for a character I made a while ago. Normally, he's tough looking, but the Seasonal variation makes him much more EXTREME 90's than usual.


Still, I like how it turned out despite all that.
