Shut up. Shut up. Just shut up.

OoT has perhaps the single most perfect opening screen of all time. You wanna make a teaser? Black screen,sound of hoofes on dirt, a gently plucked guitar, faint moon rising, a silhouette with a goofy hat and a sword riding through an open field. Hit the violins, hold the shot, hit the flute, pan over smoke on death mountain. Make it not look like glossy unreal engine slop. Fade to title. 15 billion likes.

OoT is 80% atmosphere and like 2% Navi or some sage yapping. Just please stop talking. Stop explaining. When did "show don't tell" die? Fuck off.
