I unlocked the camera. I hope I'm not the only person who instantly dumped out my inventory to take pictures of everything. Also my only fairy, which flew away before I snapped it. Then I realised I should have let it out inside a house. Oh well, I will go visit the Clown Box again. Also looking forward to the beatings Link is going to get taking pictures of monsters. Also also I am one of the people who got the game before the Switch. Oh, and are you supposed to get one of those Blood Moon things the next night after you hear about them but it goes away really fast? Or is that just what they do, bring back the monsters and then gently caress off? e: also this game loving rules

We need to put that blushing pose that Link made when you get presented with the Gerudo set into the OP.

Blood Moons are a clever memory-saving development trick to reset the game after you've modified enough things (mainly monster kills, but a few other things too). You can definitely influence the frequency of blood moons by just going on a total rampage. jokes posted:We need to put that blushing pose that Link made when you get presented with the Gerudo set into the OP. nominating this

Is it wrong to be horribly terrified of guardians early in the game? I just got to Hateno village, saw a shrine out in the ocean and said hey lets go. Get inside and its a guardian that i cant seem to do any damage to.

It's even worse when you run into one out in the wild and you've still only got like 5 hearts and a bunch of lovely weapons and oh god it just keeps following me and there's nowhere to hide

I saw the requirements for upgrading and stormed hyrule castle without upgrading it. Definitely thought the first phase of Ganon was a cool fight but except for gliding up and letting time stop for a good 5 seconds in perfect timing with the music before delivering the final blow the second phase was kinda disappointing. The ending scene with Zelda was really charming, though, I was half expecting Link to say a word or two as the last line of the game.

Trying my Master Sword against a Guardian for the first time and cutting off a leg by accident and watching the Guardian reel back as the music shifted tone from ominous to triumphant was a cool moment.

This is a very cool video game and also I named the horse Silly Leg.

Yeah running into guardians at first is terrifying. And it's supposed to be that way, early on you definitely should run from them

I haven't played many games in which the whole late game reversal of power is more gratifying.

Well I saved the Zoras. I hope all the Divine Beasts are that interesting. Dunno if I was supposed to do that one first, I did a lot of running and just barely scraped through the boss. Speaking of Which, I didn't get a photo of it, can you get it in the compendium thing? Also I think I'm gonna goof off and climb towers for a bit. Been exploring and I think I spotted the bird beast. And saw something really cool in Lake Hylia. I'm glad I managed to avoid basically any spoilers, there's a ton of neat things to find Haven't played a 3D Zelda since Wind Waker, it feels very different but in a good way.

Minor thing I was curious about: at what point exactly does the amiibo rune become unlockable? From firsthand experience, all I can say is that it's somewhere between beating Oman Au's trial and getting the paraglider.

I was taking a look at the earliest version of the map you can see in the first teaser way back. A lot of it is the same, but it's neat trying to spot later additions. (This one has the great plateau and the borders from the E3 demo overlayed on the original)  Lots of little changes in geography here and there of course, but the most prominent changes i can spot are the additions of the labyrinths, the removal of whatever that circle in the Gerudo Highlands was, and putting Hyrule Castle on it's own island. Mt. Agaat seems to have been added later, but you can't climb it

Mine got added when my slate got upgraded at the Hateno lab, along with the camera rune. Is this a difference between WiiU and Switch? (I'm on WiiU.)

What does filling out the Hyrule Compendium do? do you get anything for taking pictures of everything? Also, just want to say this game is amazing. I've done about 45 shrines and 3 of the divine beasts so far and I'm still constantly finding new poo poo even though I have all the map towers activated.

ROCK THE HOUSE M.D. posted:What does filling out the Hyrule Compendium do? do you get anything for taking pictures of everything? Not really. Purah's assistant gives you a sealed envelope with what is likely a photo of a young Purah. You can't do anything with it, as in, you can't even see the photo.
