lovely Wizard posted:I loving own a Switch and I don't get all the emulation making GBS threads-on going here. If the Switch wasn't portable, I'd probably be doing the same thing as him, so for people who don't care about couch(scratch this if he has a media pc setup)/bed/toilet gaming he is an upstanding gent. Plus there's a good chance they get 60fps working for Zelda without janky physics problems, so it'd make it go from a resolution bump to a gameplay improvement as well. I said there were perfectly good reasons to emulate?  No need to get worked up my dude.But you answered it yourself. The Switch is going to be Wii U+. Might as well get in on the ground floor. Edit: Asimo posted:You can emulate all you want but it kinda also invalidates all your complaints about the game being broken, slow, or buggy since you're very much not using it in the intended environment. That's about it really. Also this.

The Lobster posted:I said there were perfectly good reasons to emulate? True. I mean CEMU seems to be at a point where the game isn't a hot mess anymore now, but using speedhacks on an emulator is probably the issue rather than the emulator itself. I mean the Switch will eventually be a top tier system even if it just ports/upgrades Wii U's best games, but dropping $360 for effectively 1 game as of now (3.5 weeks till Mario Kart, several months for that punching game and splatoon 2, and over 6 months for Mario Odyssey) as well as keeping an active eye on inventory for it is probably a big hassle for someone interested in just one game for now.

There's no telling what quirks in a game this open, dynamic, and physics-driven might be due to bugs in the emulator. Dude was complaining about animals disappearing quickly, a bug that I've not heard of anyone experiencing on the intended hardware. If you're emulating, maybe put a disclaimer at the top of your list of complaints. You are not using a consumer product anymore, you are messing around with an unfinished reverse engineering project.

You'll almost always get occasional issues with emulators unless they go the BSNES/Higan route of absolute compatibility, but yeah if you're asking for help with a glitch while using an emulator you need to say that ahead of time while asking for a remedy.

No I agree. That's why I said financial reasons were a perfectly valid reason to emulate. If you can't afford/justify a purchase, then go ahead. But you can't complain when weird poo poo happens. Though I will try my best to give you solutions that work for me, anyway, though for all I know they don't apply.

Just beat it and I have a question: Zelda says Ganon abandoned the cycle of reincarnation to turn into dark beast Ganon, but then in the epilogue scene she says he'll be back?

You can feed stalhorses apples, and they'll eat them and up their bond like a normal horse. Plus you get the monster horse tack; they must make them registerable at some point, right? Right?

Phantasium posted:I feel like I ruined Typhlo Ruins because if you nock a fire arrow it acts like a giant flashlight and you can keep it like that without ever using it so I just walked right up to the ruins and climbed into them. This also works for any lootables in the overworld like carrots, herbs, radishes, apples, durians, mushrooms, etc but does not work on lizards or beetles sadly.

Just found a star fragment in a chest southeast of tal tal peak, in the little alcove along the cliffside with the trees on the map. Dunno if chest contents change with game completion though.

Should I sell my excess rubies, etc to any vendor or is there a specific vendor that pays more? I thought I saw discussion weeks ago about that but there only vendor I've found who pays higher prices is a Gerudo woman in Goron City but she seems to only want a big stack of diamonds.

She also doesn't buy them for that much more than the shop, at least it didn't seem like it, so I didn't really worry too much about who I was selling my gems to.

Doing a four heart, no fairies run of this game has really revitalized my respect for enemies and made me up my strategy game. It's also had the effect I think Nintendo intended for night time adventuring in that it's made me very wary of it. Even the night trash is now a pretty significant threat to me if I'm not quick on the draw. The REAL threat, though, is getting gang-banged by skeletons and keese when I'm trying to fight actual enemies. Feeling endgame powerful is cool and all but I like being a glass cannon now that I know what I'm doing. It's exciting to have enemies who actually feel threatening again and force me to play at my very best, and it's not like there's any point where you HAVE to be hit in this game.

Wildtortilla posted:Should I sell luminous stones or do they turn into something more valuable? You can trade 10 luminous stones for one diamond at Zora's Domain (two diamonds the first time you do it, so definitely do it once). But if you're looking for rupees, sell the stones. It takes 10 luminous stones (700 rupees total) to make 1 diamond (500 rupees), so you should only do that if you specifically need diamonds for something and not money.

Also luminous stones aren't rare at all so do whatever you want with them I guess. If anyone isn't doing this already, start marking good ore spots with stamps on your map and you'll never want for ore again.

Turning food into regeneration instead of an immediate heal would be a great change, I think. Probably make it so that Hearty food doesn't automatically restore full hearts, though they could also just make Hearty ingredients extremely rare so that temporary hearts are more valuable.
