Each week, alone in the pitiless expanses of the internet, a truly remarkable journey takes place. Reviews from far and wide abandon the security of their originating hard drives and make the long ~100 millisecond journey to be uploaded to HonestGamers' servers. In single file, they march against the scrutinizing eye of HG's moderators and subsequently endure the gale force winds of the readers' criticism. Nevertheless, they are resolute and indomitable, driven by the overpowering urge for exposure and publication. |

Thanks to EmP and his tireless promotion of the site through social media, I won an even better prize this week. My review got the attention of the game's developers. It's gotten over 1000 hits (and my reviews usually take 3-4 years to achieve those sorts of numbers).

It was nice to win this week, for only the fourth time since RotW was revived. Competition truly has been fierce, and I'm glad to chalk up another win by writing for a game that I enjoyed as much as I did Breath of the Wild. I wasn't sure how the review would come across, but it sounds like the stuff that I hoped it would do is also the stuff it actually did.

Nice, Jerec. It's always cool when that happens. It can be a bit of a double-edged sword, though. Only one of my Steam reviews ever hit numbers like that, and it was also the review that accumulated the most negative comments and hate. But I suppose that's just the internet for ya...
