Blood moon rises again

oh man that reminds me of this twitter account where it would be like world updates in the form of a change-log

Have you tried turning the moon off and on again?

Are you sure you're not experiencing Panic Blood Moons?

In Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom, a "blood moon" happens every 3 or so in-game days. This is a cutscene where the sky turns red and the blood moon comes out. When this happens, all monsters you have killed in the world come back to life.

In the latest Legend of Zelda games there's a regular event that takes place every in-game month called the Blood Moon. When it happens all of the enemies that the player had previously defeated come back to life. The joke here is the the dirty dishes were cleaned, but the blood moon reincarnated them.

In open world games, there is usually a mechanism to reset the game world in part or in full after a period of time. This frees up system memory and prevents the game world from becoming barren.

The Zelda open world games (breath of the wild and tears of the Kingdom), are unique in that this mechanic is given a canonical explanation, rather than simply happening in the background as with other open world games.

At midnight (in-game) after a set number of similarly in-game days (or immediately if the game is about to crash) an event called the Blood Moon happens, where all enemies and most items are reverted to their state before you came along and kicked ass.

The joke here is that the dirty dishes was the prior state before the person cleaned them, hence after a blood moon, they are dirty again.

@fresh @sudo22, it seems to me that he is going to have to wash the dishes, possibly with the Tupperware of tomato sauce as the final Boss.

When the glow of the blood stained moon shines upon the land, the spirits of slain monsters return to flesh. The world is threatened once again.

Me: "Oh no, a Screamer!"

Screamer: "CLEAN UP THE DISHES!"
