LIKE THE WAVES IN THE OCEAN I WILL DIG IN YOUR FAT AND SEARCH FOR YOUR CLITORIS, BUT I WON'T SLAM WHALE
Guys, what do I do? I can easily go beat Ganon right now but don't want Zelda to be over :(. I am about to get level 4 barbarian gear, don't rly care to 100% the shrines or Korok seeds cuz Link already feels OP without that. I'm down to get the Hylian shield but other than that, I'm pretty much at the end. Do I just suck it up and kill the fucker? I guess Mario Kart is out in a couple short weeks...

Just go and kill all the strong enemies in the overworld (Lynels and etc), or do all the sidequests since those aren't shrine quests.

Or you could just do another run and do things differently? Different order, low health, or just go straight to Ganon.

Idk, saying "I don't want the game to be over but I don't want to do any of the things left in the game" is kinda limiting it on yourself.

A cup of spiders.
Third run on Has Been Heroes unlocked a tiger-man. His element seems to be fire, which is ugh. Fire feels like it slows me down because I either wait for the enemy I hit to stop burning, or I set myself on fire hitting a burning enemy. I've realized I really like a Lightning / Water combination because you get slowdowns from water magic and wet enemies seem to take more damage from lightning.

Does the Puyo Puyo game have modes where you can just play Tetris or just play Puyo Puyo? Or is it always the hybrid switching mode?

If you're in the demo, the left option is normal, the right option switches. When you select your character, you can choose which game you want to play.

The title screen has quick play buttons for Tetris, Puyo, and Swap.

I'm not sure what the demo shows off, but specifically yes you can play straight Puyo Puyo or Tetris, and either one against the other in versus in any combination. In terms of other stuff there's the mode that swaps between a Puyo Puyo and a Tetris board at regular intervals (the best mode), combined Puyo Puyo and Tetris on the same board, versus mode with items, and a mode where the board is set up and you try to slam in combos as fast as possible.

Don't fret. Beating him without exploring further afterwards is like going to yellowstone and skipping the park after just seeing old faithful. Keep exploring.

Beating Ganon gives you a completion rate on the map so you can know just how much poo poo you're missing.

I was kinda worried about that at first but your characters regenerate HP over time (and the tiger specifically regenerates 10HP per swing) so as long as you still have some stamina and aren't up against a direct-damage boss, go nuts with it.

For maximum effect, set a guy at the end of one lane on fire, attack them to set yourself on fire, then have that character lane-swap to the most crowded lane: on the way back they'll set everyone they pass through on fire as well.

This also works with poison.

Tiger dude also hits a lot harder than the Monk or the Bard which makes him pretty helpful.
