idk if it's better on switch but the textures on wii u are healla blurry and hard to make out -- BUT, with a keen eye and a strong will, you can easily make the powerful secret dishes a reality

its cool how forgiving the cooking is in this game. like i've just been throwing poo poo together and unless it's a combo that obviously makes no sense it always works

you don't need any prior knowledge of the systems going in; its so dang intuitive. the rules are very clear and, like most things in this epic game, if you think it should work it probably does

attaching balloons to things has opened up so many possibilities. watching an apple sail just out of reach above a bunch of deer and laughing my rear end off

dropping a sledgehammer and using magnesis to whack enemies with it is also really funny. love this drat game

i've yet to figure out how to use magnesis effectively in offensive style situations.. maybe while at night while the bokoblins are sleeping i could grab a metal cube and drop it on them from as high as i can lift it? hmm... To the lab!

cn you use stasis on weapons? dropping a sledgehammer nd then launching it at one million miles at a moblin sounds badass

most of the time i just forget to use them. although lately ive been having a rear end ton of fun using bombs to blow bad guys off cliffs. sometimes i get knocked off with them as well, though, which is just as funny. this game is a masterpiece. its like if MGSV was made by Nintendo except they let Aonuma (Kojima in this analogy..) have as much time and money as he needed to craft his opus

there's almost no way to use it effectively, just humorously

I love the image of Link walking right up to a massive poster and squinting at it real hard trying to tell if the recipe calls for rice or wheat

2. there will likely be a sequel in the same style some years in the future that improve upon this game
