That Twitter back and forth on Zelda is really curious. I have no idea what's going on there. It looks like it's completely bugged out for one person but fine for another?

EDIT: Oh, looks like there's something off with the guy who replied, so original screenshot probably still stands. Hoping Nintendo actually pays attention and fixes that.

I'm not trying to mean this as a dig against anyone, but personally, it's really weird when people say they don't know where to go. You have a map that fills out as you explore. The map rooms mark sections in purple that lead to new regions, and the map does such a good job of marking items, blocks, etc. I feel like except for a few points near the end, finding the path forward is pretty much always as simple as going to places you haven't been yet on the map. Maybe I'm just so entrenched in the language of how these games work, but I did a full 100% run without ever feeling stuck. Whereas with say, Axiom Verge 2, there were a couple things I had to look up, and even when I did, I was like, "well I never would have figured that out on my own."

@dipset I want to say that we judged those games separately, but the only thing I really remember is that Super Mario Galaxy got a unanimous vote. One of the shortest GOTY debates ever.

I joined in 2007 along with Patrick Morales. Damiani and Brooks Huber were 2008.

@El-Shmiablo @Bigdude1 Ben gave you both a warning, and you kept it going. Giving you a 3-day ban to cool down.

@kibblebits Alexander Zyryanov has continued to do captions on all the reviews. He just has to send me the files to upload rather than editing them directly on YouTube.

I've also purposely limited caption submissions to scripted videos both because they're shorter and because I have the direct scripts to give to whoever's doing them and to compare afterwards. When things are more conversational, it's hard to pick up exactly what everyone's saying, people may be speaking at the same time, and the videos tend to be much longer in general. So even if someone else is doing the subtitles, it becomes a huge time-sink just to review them to make sure they're correct.

Alexander's got the reviews down to a science, doing English and Russian subtitles, but if there's another language you can help with or if you think there are more scripted vids out there that you'd like to do subtitles for, just let me know.
