Man, we hope your hearts are wearing some light, loose-fitting clothing, because they're about to get
warmed.
CNN recently aired a video report on mild-mannered Roy Williams, a young man whose love of
The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time is surpassed only by his love of doing awesome, considerate things. Like, for instance, playing
Ocarina of Time blindfolded, and writing a guide on how to play the game by only using sound clues, so that a visually impaired gamer living in another country can topple Ganon's tyrannical reign.
Transcribing
OoT in this manner took Williams and "three other diehard gamers"
two years, but allowed Jordan Verner, a blind gamer living in Ontario, to finish the game for the first time. If that doesn't make you just a little
verklempt, then you probably have robot parts where your heart should be.
[Thanks Kevin!]
