You should think of it less as 900 things they thought would be a great addition to the game and just HAD to include, and more of 900 things they just slapped on top of an already completed game because they had time and resources left over.

900 things you have to find to get the last heart PIECE. Also no item to use for finding them.

200 of them are RNG drops.

3 of them are quest rewards. Choose 1 of the 3. It takes 3 plays to complete the set.

This might be common knowledge, idk, but I was playing Twilight Princess HD today and in the snobby store you need to get your boots polished to enter, there is a picture of Breath of the Wild framed on the wall.

I doubt finding the Koroks ends up being more than, "Hey! You found me! Go find the rest." Where I'd rather have like 200 quests where I help NPCs with whatever plight they have.

MadHat posted:They appear to just be "Find the Korok" So basically just a reward for exploring random locations that do not necessarily have a bigger reason to get to, like I think the ones we saw in the Plateau included getting to the top of the Temple of Time and Diving into a conspicuous circle in a lake. this seems like pretty standard dumb open world collectible bullshit not that its mere presence is a big deal or anything at least they seem to be placed in actual landmarks?

I hope the reward for that is gonna be good because I'm down for hunting 900 Koroks because I liked finding green stars in Mario Galaxy 2, and would like to have a reason to explore crannies of an open world. However I'm not down for being forced to read the same congratulations dialogue 900 times.

900 Koroks only really becomes a problem if there isn't anything else going on. With 900 of the drat things there is no way they'll be important and there likely won't be a meaningful reward at the end. As long as there are good quests and such, finding koroks along the way might be fun. But there better be good content next to them, otherwise it's worthless filler that they stuck into the game to populate the huge world and give the illusion that the size of the place was worth it. I want this game to be great but every news story about how "big" it is just makes me feel nervous

Febreeze posted:I want this game to be great but every news story about how "big" it is just makes me feel nervous You're forgetting that this game's been in development since the WiiU released (if not longer), except it's under the supervision of people who actually know what they're doing. It's not like Ubisoft where halfway through someone upstairs might go "hmmm... add THIS! CHANGE THIS! NOW!" and scrawls over half the project brief in crayon. Also once the basic programming works, a lot of open-world games are just just plug-and-play for pre-existing content (eg; Climbable_Tree_A here, Puzzle_Type_4 trigger there) so cramming in puzzles like that is more busywork than anything once the basic triggers and controls are defined.

Mario Odyssey is a misnomer. The game is actually called Mario Odd-a Sea. You just play Mario in a sea of coins. Once you've collected all 36.7 million coins, you win the game.

It's not like Ubisoft where halfway through someone upstairs might go "hmmm... add THIS! CHANGE THIS! NOW!" and scrawls over half the project brief in crayon. A long development time doesn't necessarily equal quality. I mean MM was made in a year and I'd wager MM is probably the most praised game in this thread. We don't know what problems the developers have faced, we don't know how much has changed as the game has gone on (what they've scrapped, how many versions the game has gone through), we don't really know that much to be honest. All we know is that it's YUUUUGE and the things being touted are things that tend to be problematic in other games. Also "cramming in puzzles is more busywork than anything" and "plug and play" isn't exactly inspiring to me, because it sounds exactly like what is making people nervous. Very little careful planning and more "plop here's a camp of dudes, plop here's a korok". It reminds me of WW's ocean which was full of the same poo poo all over the place in slightly different versions. Here's a platform to blow up! Here's TWO platforms! Here's a big octo! Here's another big octo! Here is a reef! Find the other 5 that play the exact same way! Once you get past a certain size things feel copy/paste because technical limitations and all the time in the world can't fill that space. I loved the poo poo out of Just Cause 2 until about halfway through clearing the game I realized I was blowing up the same radar towers and fuel depos over and over again. I put it down, never picked it back up. I'm still optimistic and I'll still probably love the game because I'm a sucker, but there is a reason people in here are expressing trepidation about a lot of this. We've been burned before.

But I love for example GTA Vice City which was made in a year, much like MM it was able to use GTA3 as a base, MM is like a stand-alone expansion/alternate game thingy for OoT. It wouldn't be made from the ground up in one year. A long dev time doesn't mean you'll necessarily have a great game, but it sure helps.

I agree. MM is an example of a team making a great game and then immediately making another great game. A lot of things in MM are reused from OoT. All of the groundwork was done, all they had to do what create the world, and come up with a story. They could have started working on the story as soon as they were done writing the story of OoT. It looks like Ocarina of Time took about 3-4 years to make. That seems like a more similar timeline to Breath of the Wild.

I don't think there will be any 100% BoTW runs at AGDQ. ^^^ If you jump off the tower and land on a horse while a bomb goes off and kills you, it spawns you on the title screen where you already have 900 Koroks.
