Rime posted:Y'know, a fair number of these shrines are just like "Lol, thanks for coming out, here's some loot and a sword" with no puzzle involved. You mean the shrines that you have to do a quest to unlock, which say "you by entering here, have already proved yourself worthy" ? I thought that was cool as gently caress  If you're really just talking about a shrine with a sword, you missed something. They should all give you a spirit token thing when you get to the end. But there are some which just reward you with no puzzle, because they're hidden shrines you have to complete a puzzle to unlock. I thought that was really nice, so you don't have to do two puzzles just for one reward.

Much trial, such sacrifice. Now that the initial gloss has worn off I'm starting to see through the cracks a bit. Of course, then I struggle through a thunderstorm and watch lightning blow trees apart all around me only to find MAJOR SPOILER a shrine to loving Ruto from OoT and the game goes back to

You're really overstating this. I've done like 30 shrines at this point, and the handful that just give you the reward either require some challenging traversal to get in, an environmental puzzle to access (e.g. solving some riddle from an NPC's conversation that points you to a bombable wall) or there's some kind of boss/mini-boss fight beforehand.

That guy is an absolute fucker (they were fuckers in Zelda 1 too so I guess it's true to form), but I was stubborn and he needed punishment so I spent an hour whittling him down to a sliver of health over and over before he would get a cheap shot off and kill me. But I took that fucker down, and I'm never going up that mountain again. raditts fucked around with this message at 21:26 on Mar 5, 2017 |

Moltrey posted:Yeah yeah, I have no problem just marking this area on my map with a skull stamp and moving on, knowing that I'll eventually be better prepared to beat it Yeah and the stamp system is really good for that. I've marked all kinds of places where I can cook, where there's an overworld boss, or stuff like that, so I can come back later and easily find it again. You can only have 5 pins but as far as I can tell you can put as many stamps as you want. And you can scope, pin a location, and then change the pin to a stamp. Once you get the hang of it, its really nifty.

Because often you can, its just a little harder.  Like sometimes you're climbing up this huge cliffside and you're barely making it with stamina boosts and potions and you get to the top and its like, man, I could have just walked around and then gone up the easy path where the road was...

Just too sandboxy for me, I think, I'm becoming more and more of a theme park guy as time goes on. You can spend a ton of time loving around in the open world, and you get rewarded with shrines giving you heart pieces, but if you want something more theme parky dive into one of the 4 main bosses ASAP. The game is freeform so you can go at it with your own pace, if you want more themepark then stick to the main story and trim the fat. Dunno if all that will be enough for you but you may be surprised, its still a huuuuge game even if you ignore most of the off-the-beaten-path stuff. Myself, I'm right there with the last guy who was saying I haven't played a game I've been this into since Dark Souls 1. I just wanna run around and see everything, and everywhere I'm finding cool and interesting things, and everything feels so free and fresh and fun and rewarding.... ahhh

Is there a way to send a horse I've already named to a stable if I'm out in the wild? Or do I just have to ride it all the way back to the nearest stable if I've hit a dead end?

I really enjoy how much it's up to me to decide when I feel like I've explored enough. It always feel like I've left some treasure or item on the table whenever I decide to move on to the next lake or mountain range cause hey that's adventuring man. I get paranoid that I'm missing shrines cause I'm just dumb a lot of the time and am tempted to look up a map of them to settle my nerves, but with the sensor for them and the feeling of making it over a hill and seeing a shrine nestled under an ancient Shadow Of The Colossus rear end bridge has kept me going.Harrow posted:Should I hang on to all the Luminous Stones I've found?

If you have already saddled and named the horse, its yours forever (unless it dies, but you can resurrect it somewhere too). Feel free to just leave it somewhere. Any stable can summon your horses no matter where you left them. No "sending" needed.You can just teleport back to the stable or whatever.

Pollyanna posted:How are you supposed to avoid his attacks? Shock arrows are cheap as poo poo. gently caress you, Lynel: A Strategy Guide He will swap his bow out for dual blades if you get up close, so close in ASAP and do backflips / flurry counterattacks. Use regular attacks in between as well because you can cancel melee attacks into dodges. When he jumps back then get some distance because he will either be shooting fireballs or gearing up for a Bald Bull-esque bull charge that will gently caress you up. If you can ping him in the face with arrows then it will stun him for a little bit and you can jump on his back to hit him up to 5 times. It's hard to do since he rarely sits still and his face has a small hit box, but I found that bomb arrows seem to be more effective.
