During the beginning act of The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, Link ends up losing an arm to what is basically a gangrene caused by Ganondorf's "gloom". Which is to say, a "Ganon-grene".

I really hope the developers weren’t thinking about this pun while developing the plot…

Technically you don’t find out that the demon king at the beginning and ganondorf are one in the same until some time later… but it’s not really a surprise if you’ve played any other games in the series.

Yeah fair, but as you said if you know anything about Zelda at all it’s pretty obvious who the demon king looks like and is supposed to be as soon as you see him.

I’ve got the game sitting on my shelf in the box. Waiting for free time to play it. Idgaf if it’s in the first 5 minutes. I’d rather not have spoilers in post titles.

It’s been out over 3 months now, I think it’s not that unexpected for people to talk about the intro cutscene pretty much

If something from the literal start of the game is too spoilery, what could people talk about that wouldn’t be? Or do you just want people not to talk about the game at all until you’ve played it?
