I did that stealth follow quest first try. Come on, y'all had to know he was going to turn around at least once right? The stealth clothes are a must have and should be the first big purchase you make, imo.

Yeah, I need to toy around with seeing if I can rip the weapons out of the hands of Lynel with shock/magnesis so I can just grab their weapons and black hole them, instead of wasting multiple weapons trying to hack their health down

...oh god what if Nintendo did for Metroid what they just did for Zelda It's a beautiful dream that I will not allow myself to indulge in because it'll only break my heart. Edit: Though, really, it's not that comparable. Metroid never really changed all that much, with the exception of those weird Hunters/Federation Force spin-offs, and it's not like Zelda hasn't had weird, bad spin-offs. Metroid had one very big stumble with Other M but prior to that it remained the exploration-focused, atmospheric series it was from the start. So I guess what I mean is not so much that I want Metroid to "go back to its roots" or something, but that I just want it to, y'know... come back.

Unrelated: I really want to see more videos like this because I never thought a Zelda game would give rise to videos of people just showing off really stylish ways of owning bosses and tough enemies. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Or88ErrwGY TheOneAndOnlyT posted:It'd be pretty hard to do though since Metroid's whole Thing is gating areas off behind doors/obstacles that require specific powerups. Yeah, now that I thought about it some more, it's less that I want them to do some sort of big, open-world Metroid and more that I just want a real Metroid game again. It can be side-scrolling or Prime-style first-person, I'm not picky. Just wash away the stain of Other M and Federation Force and bring back real Metroid and I'll be thrilled. It doesn't really need reinvention the way I think Zelda was yearning for. Harrow fucked around with this message at 21:14 on Mar 14, 2017 |

I'm looking forward to a picture guide of all the recipes in Breath of the Wild, but am enjoying just throwing whatever I can think of into the pot to see what it makes. It's pretty forgiving and there's lots of clues about what works with what. (mixing this or that with monster parts nets you elixirs, baked right into the item description, for example) I just have to remember to write down some of my favorite recipes so I don't waste as many materials.

Really, the most important things to remember are:
(Incidentally, I think you should be able to add temporary hearts or stamina without fully restoring it, so that fancy recipes that restore lots of hearts or stamina have more value. I'd love it if they patched that in or, if nothing else, made it part of Hard Mode.)

There are a few quests out there that teach you recipes, too, which I love. Like there's a guy who wants Goron Spice and he teaches you how to use it to make curry. Or the little Rito girl who really, really wants some salmon meuniere, which also teaches you how to make that for yourself in the future. It's good.

Also the utility of extra hearts goes down as you play the game. You're capped at 30 real+temp hearts ao by endgame cooking 1 hearty anything basically maxes you out.

Harrow posted:Really, the most important things to remember are: From my own limited experimentation: For elixirs: Horns < "other parts" < Guts for effect duration, but the type doesn't matter so there's no difference between using Bokoblin guts vs Lynel guts in elixirs Effect potency caps out at 4 items for both elixirs and cooking for buffs that can stack 3 times, and 3 items for buffs that stack to 2. So using 5 sunshrooms or 5 bananas is a waste and you're better off using 3/4 and some seasoning.

Cojawfee posted:Unless i need a specific effect, I just do prime meat and a radish to get full hearts and some extras. I'm cooking a lot of Hearty Durians now because they're really easy to get in large quantities, but yeah, that's basically all you need. I know all I have to do is cook one durian per recipe to get a full heal + temporary hearts, but I can't deny that cooking three of 'em for 12 friggin' temporary hearts is pretty satisfying. EDIT: And yeah, you're capped at 30 hearts, so once you start getting more real hearts, you can start stepping down how many hearty ingredients you want in each dish.

HAHAHAHAHA! I am now the king of Guardian Riposte. Now going through Castle Town with a pot lid and just wrecking town. Only issue is that my Goron shield power automatically ripostes before I can with my shield, wasting charges. The best was getting a double shot off a stationary and a flying guardian.

I'd also love item quickslots, but the game isn't, like, broken without them. I'm thinking it could just be mapped to d-pad down like it is now. Tap down on the d-pad to use your selected item, or hold down on the d-pad to cycle through items the same way you do weapons, shields, bows, arrows, and runes. Maybe let people use items from that as well by highlighting something and pressing A so you can still quickly use something that isn't your selected quick item. They'd need to have some way for you to flag items to go in your quick select menu because obviously cycling through every consumable item in your inventory that way wouldn't be practical, but that seems doable. Something to consider if the next Zelda game continues to have such an expansive amount of usable items, I think. Harlock posted:The Rito area/dungeon/story is all pretty weak in comparison to the other ones. Yeah, the Rito part seems really phoned in. I don't really understand why, either. There was a lot of room for cool stuff there but everything about it seems to imply they forgot Vah Medoh needed some sort of story build-up and threw it together as quickly as possible. It's a bummer, too, because I really like the Rito and I wish there could've been more there. Harrow fucked around with this message at 21:44 on Mar 14, 2017 |

Those are some good ideas a "double-tap" to unequip would be nice for Lightning Storms, also, when you're holding the button why the hell did they make it a single row lay-out instead of just a grid layout like you have on the inventory screen? It'd be so much easy to shuffle through your equipment that way.

Breath of the Wild is a game that might've benefited from Destiny's approach to grid menus: you don't navigate by moving from box to box, but by using the thumbstick to move a cursor around like a mouse cursor. It'd mean if you want to get to an item in the bottom-right of the grid, you don't have to tap down multiple times and then to the right multiple times, but just move the cursor diagonally across to the thing you want. Better categorization in the menu would've been really nice, too, but honestly the inventory is far from the worst I've seen as it is.

Also: how about holding on the d-pad to bring up weapon/shield/etc. selection opens up a wheel menu instead of a line or a grid? It might limit you a little bit on the maximum size of each of those inventories, maybe, just because there's only so much precision you can expect, but it'd also mean every single item in your weapon inventory (for example) is exactly as many button-presses or stick-movements away as any other item.
