Today I spent hours again playing The Legend of Zelda. I don’t know if it’s because I love the feeling of being in a huge world where nobody knows me, or because somehow I feel like Link and I share something: we both walk in silence, facing things way bigger than us, as if the noise of the world doesn’t really matter.
While exploring, I caught myself thinking how nice it would be if real life had an inventory where you could keep what truly matters and just throw away all the emotional trash. Imagine opening a menu and deleting anxiety, awkward memories, or that constant feeling of not fitting in. But no, in real life there are no fairies to revive you or magic potions. Just cold coffee and playlists on repeat.
Sometimes I feel like I’m just a badly programmed NPC, stuck in the same routine. But when I’m in Hyrule, I’m not. There, I feel like I exist. And maybe that’s what I love the most about video games: they let me live in a place where I don’t need permission to be weird. HAHA
