rynling: (Cool Story Bro)
Something that's struck me during this playthrough of Breath of the Wild is that almost every house has books, even if it's just a few. All the farmers in Hateno have books. Even the Bolson prefab houses have small bookcases. The gambler in Lurelin Village? Apparently uses his wealth to buy books. People who have a lot of books are proud about it, which you know because they brag to Link.

Meanwhile, not a single one of the houses I looked at in real life during the past two weeks had a single book.

Now that I think about it, none of my mother's family's houses has any books either. (With the exception of the house my dad moved into when I was in high school, which had a dozen boxes filled with paperback copies of Clan of the Cave Bear in a closet. This was and will forever remain a mystery.)

I haven't actually been in that many people's houses in America, so I don't know. Is it normal not to have any books?

how is botw so pretty? the mute desaturated colours make me able to play for long periods without my eyes dying. also it looks very sentimental and emotional for some reason. i like complimenting that game.

You know what? That's fair.
