Life can be tricky sometimes when you don’t like scary things. As a person who does not enjoy being scared in the slightest thank you very much, certain activities are lost on me. Horror movies as a genre are out (I don’t even like the commercials), and October in general can get frustrating. But sometimes…

Some visit a nice restaurant or a favorite spot, while others prefer to stay exactly where they are, like everyone’s favorite super couple…
One thing I really enjoy about new Zelda games is the first time we get a good look at Link. Every iteration of our hero has something that sets them apart from the others. More often than not, it’s the outfit at the beginning of each game. Link usually rolls out of bed, still groggy…
