How early do you get to repair weapons? I'm running around with four weapons nearly broken and the next best are the lovely ~4 damage starting ones lying around. Just got through Kakariko so I'm not too far in. Do I use any of the mining material to repair them or something? Having durability in a game that came out in 2017 is really weird and it's stressing me out.

So... how do you get Ruppees? Is it strictly by selling poo poo? I haven't found anything in the wild and have only gotten some via selling poo poo. I ask because I need to buy some real armor because Link takes damage like a fuckin' bitch and getting OHKO'd by these electro-sniping Lizafols is becoming tedious.

Viewtiful Jew posted:It's gonna be interesting to see how people who have spent the last decade or so saying, "You know what they should do? Go back to the beginning. Just do Zelda 1 again but make it as next-gen as you can get." handle this game. Have people been saying this? If so, I too would like to see that. Edit: I mean I really like the first game, and I'm pretty sure my plan is going to be 1. Start the game up. 2. Squeal with joy until I faint from lack of oxygen.

Can someone help me out with this photo stuff?

If you don't like that, get your Zelda on.  : I mean, more poo poo happens and it really opens up, but you're past the point where gameplay changes much.

If you run out, use some arrows or some bombs or something creative (magnetism) to kill people, then take whatever weapons they have. I hope there is weapon repairing, but if there is you're not gonna get it anytime soon. I don't think anybody in thread has it yet.

I've spent half my day dicking around in Gerudo Desert, not even accomplishing much of anything except a few shrines. It's cool to think that while I've gone this way other people are exploring places I've never seen like Zora territory or Death Mountain or this island people keep mentioning. It feels special.

There's no weapon repairing in this game. Stuff just merely gets a better "build" quality. You're swimming in swords and bows so seriously don't stress too hard.Infinitum posted:There'll be a glowy circle on the ground to stand in. Not seeing anything so maybe the story isn't progressed enough. Ah well.

I wandered into some wasteland and now after a long battle I have a goddamn laser sword.  The stats are silly, but low durability. This game owns hard, I won't be playing anything else for like the next year with how little I've accomplished in 6 hours. Makes Witcher 3 feel tiny. According to some Rito this is set like 10,000 years after OoT/ TP  Nintendo knocked this one out of the fuckin' galaxy. Rime fucked around with this message at 06:30 on Mar 4, 2017 |

played this on wiiu gamepad since 7, I love it. feels like Journey mixed with Shadow of the Colossus. Being able to climb anything everywhere is beyond brilliant. Only just got the parachute thingy and set off looking for a village but I do love how nice the game looks and feels. Everyone screaming about unplayable sub-20 FPS is confirmed lying pissbitch because I hardly see anything gamebreaking.

It definitely lags like CRAZY in some of the villages, but it never really bothers me. The game is so pretty anyways, and its not like you need split-second FPS reactions in this game, so its really not at all bothersome. I'm sure switch would be nice though, and I'll get one eventually.

Some enemies drop them (it's really rare). Some chests have them. Today I found a 100 rupee chest and a 300 rupee chest, both guarded by really loving hard gauntlets of enemies. For those electric Lizalfos, make some electric-weakening elixirs. Their attacks will become paltry.

I visited one village so far and have spent the rest of my time exploring shrines. It's amazing how much freedom you get with this game. This is an open world game that respects you. No enemy leveling with you, no bullshit to access new zones, no screaming arrow at the top of the screen directing exactly where to go. It's just you, alone, deciding where you go. If you are skilled or equipped enough, nothing stops you. Most open world games I feel the map is indispensable because of how things just kinda revolve around quest markers, but turning the HUD off for this game has made the experience all the better. Well done Nintendo

Just got to Kakariko and this Impa reminds me of Maz Kanata. Sounds like her too. The NPCs in the village are all great and hilarious as well. I love the guy that's so obsessed with cuccos that his wife left him. The introduction of the first Great Fairy was amazing. I love her design. I love the game so far but I'm going to take it slow. I feel like I can easily get overwhelmed going forward. I need to start stamping poo poo on my map.

Could someone point me to where the DLC chests are in the Plateau? only got the one next to the first shrine. Also, while I have a billion amazing stories already, my favourite thing is still my Dad deleting his save and restarting because he thought "Sheikah Slate data is damaged" was referring to his save game.
