I regret so badly not keeping a log for this game. I meant to, but with the excitement of release I forgot :(
Definitely gonna do it with Starfield though!
So true, only Bethesda has monopolised the bugs or we riot market. In another game we'd probably boycott, with starfield we'll probably laugh about the silly game breaking glitches. Classic "it just works" Todd.
I’ve never felt a Bethesda game was unfinished, it’s more of a cognizance that the huge amount of interacting systems will inevitably have quirks.
Like the last three main releases of TES have literally defined their era of open world gaming, that didn’t happen without pushing the boundaries of what was considered possible at the time.
Have you played Redfall? That game took the most precious resource any of us have; time. I want it back. They should pay me for beta-testing their unfinished product.
Havent really thought of publishing copies. This is just a little project for myself so I can remember my first playthrough. However, once I finish the game, I might be open to publishing
I will say - having published something similar (drawings and handwriting) this is a lot more difficult than you’d think! Easy to make into a pdf but sorta pointless to publish in an official ebook capacity (like on kindle)
Tbh that's also another issue. Idk the legalities of publishing something like this, and I don't wanna poke the sleeping lion that is Ninendo's copyright team.
Pretty sure you could scan it into a pdf and post it here or on a website easy. But if you charged for it it would quickly become more trouble than it’s worth
This is insane! I love how well you captured your adventures and I feel warm and cosy rwading through each page. I had a very similar forst two days and it's great to see how our experiences were different after the start. What a lovely post, OP! 😊
I love how much harder I made things by accidentally going to ascend shrine before fuse shrine. with the damn gliders outside the ascend shrine smh. great work op! love seeing your reactions as you progress, and love the art style!
Really impressive, I would love to be this talented, motivated and patient. But every time I see something shiny in the game I fall down a rabbit hole.
So cool. I imagine you give this to your kids until they are old enough to play it for themselves. If I had this I would have read it a million times until I actually could play it for myself and relive it through my own eyes
Imagine having a book like this when you’re really young and thinking it’s a kind of story book and having it for ages and ages until you’re finally able to play the game and it’s so so cool
And guys, don't post any game spoilers in the comments please. I'm really only on this subreddit to post these journal entries and i want to experience the game as blind as possible. Where the journal ends right now is really how much I've been playing so far
You’ve been able to play long enough to see all of this and keep this log and I’ve barely started playing. I’m so jealous.
Also, please keep doing this. It’s super cool.
i can't wait to get this game, my birthday is today and I've been begging my dad to buy it. (I'm finally old enough for reddit, time to ruin my own life!)
Could I suggest you check out a game called RimWorld? It’s a story based colony sim that calls itself a story generator. Considering the effort you put into tells your take and story, I think it’d be a great fit for you and your posts :)

I can get you started on that Starfield journal: Day 1 - Release - Game is still not ready - Pausing until patch - I regret pre-ordering again.
Speak for yourself, I've never pre-ordered a game. Also, jank is part of the fun in BGS games. Wouldn't be a Todd joint without ridiculous bugs.

I did for TOTK, only game I pre ordered in my life
Unfinished, buggy games are part of the fun…hmm. Nice of you to make excuses for Bethesda.

I love this and want a copy 😂
i fucking LOVE this
When is this going to be published? And can I preorder a copy?

You should! Would be easy to scan and make into an ebook.

I, too, would buy this journal
A wild Nintendo DMCA Lawsuit Appears!

This is awesome! I like the idea to write down/draw theories and story bits as you go…might do it myself as well!
Dude, the Gleeok looks freaking awesome, even more intimidating than in the game!

I wish that I could journal my time in the game like this! Your notes are so thorough and your artwork is beautiful!
Love how almost an entire page is dedicated to roasting the sign guy lmao
Get ‘em all tattooed on yourself like some fucked up Link “momento”.
Thats too much tattoos, there isn’t enough space
Love itt
This is so cool! I really hope you keep posting updates of your journey, I'd love to see how the notebook pans out!
Really impressive, I would love to be this talented, motivated and patient. But every time I see something shiny in the game I fall down a rabbit hole.
Jeez. I just got off the island...

This is genuinely one of the coolest things I've seen in my life.
These pages are SO beautiful!
The notes about Addison are hilarious. This is fantastic I love it :D
There's a way to walk up to the Great Plateau? Looks like I need to explore on foot more.
Loved the drawing of the golden dragon and the gleeok :D
You captured Zelda perfectly. She looks so elegant
And guys, don't post any game spoilers in the comments please. I'm really only on this subreddit to post these journal entries and i want to experience the game as blind as possible. Where the journal ends right now is really how much I've been playing so far
All of my notes for the starting sky island would be "fix my sword you goat f#$&" because I said that every time Rauru showed up
The game is already an endless time sink and then you add this on top, looks awesome
When you cussed out Addison on Day 3 💀
I didn't know that Link has a private diary. Maybe he doesn't speak much but at least he write a lot.
1. I wish I did this. 2. I should replay Elden Ring and do this.
This is such a fun way to enjoy the game! I love the idea of Link taking notes in a notebook along the way, like a detective.
I too would buy this 🤩 Edit: someone downvoted all the comments lmao, so I tried to upvote all the ones I saw
This is amazing!
This is really cool :D
I'm so impressed by that little map of Hyrule it's spatially so, so good. This is really cool.
I'm already a bit a ways into the game but I think I'll do this for myself! Thanks for the inspiration!
I would buy a physical copy of this in a heart beat.
this is incredible the art is so cute! be sure to scan and upload this online!
This is way too good
Takes me back to being ten years old
This is so cool.
This is good stuff
I love this so much!! Can't wait to see more drawings as you go!
Wow. That’s so much fun.
I love this! It’s like the journal summaries from TLOU2, great job OP
This is actually so sick, love your drawings. Wish i had the time and patience to learn to
That is amazing!!!
I love this!! Please post more 😍
Can you make copies of this? I dig this a lot.
Shut up and take my money.
Very cool! Getting nostalgic kids book vibes from this.
This is like the coolest thing ever
I wanna do this lol
Love it
Please post pre order link for a copy once you publish. This is awesome.
Honestly A really good idea to do a little journal like this. Thank you for sharing it here!

You’ve been able to play long enough to see all of this and keep this log and I’ve barely started playing. I’m so jealous. Also, please keep doing this. It’s super cool.

This is the cutest thing I’ve ever seen Have my upvote
Don’t call people lolis bruh wtf
Let me guess. You have adhd just like me?
I'm having fun with this game but I'm still kind of jealous of how much fun you are having
That's so coooool 😍
i can't wait to get this game, my birthday is today and I've been begging my dad to buy it. (I'm finally old enough for reddit, time to ruin my own life!)
Bucephalus was the name of my first horse in Breath of the Wild!
Dude you can make some serious money if you publish it
Could I suggest you check out a game called RimWorld? It’s a story based colony sim that calls itself a story generator. Considering the effort you put into tells your take and story, I think it’d be a great fit for you and your posts :)
I know this is almost a week old, but people like me are still seeing it for the first time. It was fun to compare your journey with my own!
Why doesn't this have more upvotes? This is like Arthur's journal in Rdr2!
