Example; the Legend of Zelda: BotW and TotK weapon degradation system. At first I was annoyed at it, but once I stopped caring about my “favorite weapon” I really started to enjoy the system. I think it lends really well to the sandbox nature of the game and it itches that resourcefulness nature inside me.

    I’ve tried so hard, multiple times (years apart) and just can’t read the books. I read the hobbit fine, that’s a great book, but the trilogy I just found myself skipping pages to my favourite movie parts. It just went on and on. It’s a shame really, I’d love to have read them.

      I started with the Hobbit really wanting to finally read the Lord of the Rings but I couldn’t get into it

      Meanwhile I read the books as an artful evasion of an english assignment as a child but the movies just seemed too long for me to digest.

      Maybe if they were packaged as a TV show but not at all changed in terms of content I could manage to get through it all in a day or so
