My first update of 2007
For the past few days, I've been hanging out at Derek's house with him and Kristin and Michael to celebrate the New Year, and we've been having a fun time- yay for substances, good food, and video games! We got fried rice from Gasho for the first time in months, and I still think it's the best rice ever made; makes me wonder why we stopped getting it for so long. The Nintendo Wii is delightful, and Twilight Princess is the most addictive game I've played in years. It combines the best aspects of all the other Zelda games, from the atmosphere of Ocarina of Time to the obscure but awesome Bomb Arrows from Link's Awakening. Unfortunately, the parts where you have to play as a wolf can get boring after a while because there's not a lot you can do in that form, but the rest of the game more than makes up for it. Anyway, the others are sleeping now, so here are a few quizzes and surveys I've been doing in my spare time.
You scored as Storyteller. The Storyteller is in it for the plot: the sense of mystery and the fun of participating in a narrative that has the satisfying arc of a good book or movie. He enjoys interacting with well-defined NPCs, even preferring antagonists who have genuine motivations and personality to mere monsters. To the Storyteller, the greatest reward of the game is participating in a compelling story with interesting and unpredictable plot threads, in which his actions and those of his fellow characters determine the resolution.
With apologies to Robin Laws.
