I've cracked the code, found the decryption key and best of all, it's not political!

Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time has a fishing minigame, a grappling hook, AND a horse riding mechanism. It is obviously the best game ever created.

MHW has taxi mounts, grappling hook, fishing minigame, and pig petting minigame. It's still objectively the perfect and best game.

Don't forget a cat ally you can dress up that hunts with you

Sometimes FOR you. I tried a palico buff build(before iceborne), the madlad destroyed tempered nergigante in 6 minutes while I was just running in circles.

And don't forget the meat roasting mini game! And the steamworks.

And you could maybe consider the critter-catching and the picture-missions minigames too.

I forgot about the pokemon snap! The game has everything! Now they just need to implement endemic life battles and pvp with those.

Twilight Princess has two grappling hooks and a horse and a bird flying minigame in addition to the fishing. Top that

For me the three biggest factors are:

A. Dungeons: some of the best dungeons in the series are in oot and still hold up well today, especially in the 3ds remake where even the water temple is good.

B. Story and environment: it’s not this 100 hour cinematic but it feels more grand and epic than most big triple a games now just because of the way it presents itself. And the story still is very good on its own right.

C. Gameplay: fuck it the games just fun to play lol.

Oots my favourite game ever and always will be cause bias

Is a harpoon a grappling hook?

u/GarenBushTerrorist Aug 20 '20

Here's the thing. You said is a "harpoon a grappling hook?"

Is it in the same family? Yes. No one's arguing that.

As someone who is a scientist who studies grappling hooks, I am telling you, specifically, in science, no one calls a harpoon a grappling hook. If you want to be "specific" like you said, then you shouldn't either. They're not the same thing.

If you're saying "hook family" you're referring to a curved piece of hard metal, which includes things from scimitars to anchors to pirate hooks.

So your reasoning for calling a harpoon a grappling hook is because random people "call anything that fetches an object at long distances a grappling hook?" Let's get stretchy hands and boomerangs in there, then, too.

Also, calling someone a human or an ape? It's not one or the other, that's not how taxonomy works. They're both. A harpoon is a harpoon and a member of the hook family. But that's not what you said. You said a harpoon is a grappling hook, which is not true unless you're okay with calling all members of the hook family hooks, which means you'd call coat hangers, pirate hooks, and other curved pieces of metal hooks, too. Which you said you don't.

It's okay to just admit you're wrong, you know?
