Switch it Up

Remember Fire Emblem: Three Houses? We certainly do, even six years later. We reconvene today not to discuss gameplay, or story, or narrative, or really anything about the video game. Rather, we are here to discuss how twenty-six students from Garreg Mach Monastery would translate from the battlefield to the basketball court….

Ladies and gentlemen….four years ago, the then sequel to The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild was revealed to be in development. An idea between two best friends was born, and the rest is history.

Today, we are releasing part 2.5/3 of our The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom deep dive. DISCLAIMER: The original file is over four hours long and was intended to be released as such. However, due to difficulties converting the file, we broke it down so you’ll get two parts of our second…part, if that makes sense.

Last we left off we had learned that the Zelda we’d been following was a puppet, explored the depths and throated Master Kohl once more, and approached the giant chasm below the castle, ready to venture in. Today, we simply confront our final challenge: Destroy Ganondorf and Find Princess Zelda.

Last we left off the Upheaval began and chaos ensued in Hyrule. Link was able to pick himself up and make his way to Lookout Landing, then to each of the four main regions to solve their crisis’s. Today, we dive more into the narrative with memories and geoglyphs, a conversation about the character of Link, the depths, Master Kohga, and more! Please enjoy!!

After a very long hiatus, the boys return to the airwaves to catch you up on what has been going on in each of their lives, as well as the mega episode that is to come!

BONUS EPISODE! This episode got recorded a while back when Kolby was unavailable one week and was intended to be the true 13th episode of season 4, but now that the actual episode 13 is out, consider this one episode 13-2! On this episode, Tyler once again recruits the help of the biggest blue blur enthusiast on the airwaves, Brock of the Outcasts Podcast, to help him definitively and finally review Sonic Frontiers. Did SEGA finally get the win they desperately needed, or does Frontiers fail to address any of the problems that have plagued the Sonic games of the past few years? Characters, story, gameplay, and what lies ahead; all will be discussed on this episode of Switch it Up!
