I am not feeling it. The combat seems really shallow and weapon durability is just a hassle. The world is a bit sparse and about 10 hours in there isn't a lot I really want to do.

It is INCREDIBLY satisfying taking a really powerful weapon that is about to break and throw it into the face of an enemy, killing them with a splash of glowing blue shards. I've gotten to the point where I've started to kill Lynels for fun and profit. Jeez.

The world is loaded with fresh weapons to find all over the place, you have bombs, arrows, etc, and worst case scenario, other than Gannon himself, every enemy can be ran away from until you have a better/appropriate weapon.

There's one spot where 3 Moblins are camped out with about a dozen weapons stuck in the ground. I had a great time after I took out two of them, just picking up weapons and throwing them at the last one and knocking him over as he kept trying to make his way back up the path. They weren't anything great as far as damage, but I got a kick out of it nonetheless.

I love this game to pieces, but I have fallen into this thread's tendency of focusing on imperfections and i really do wish there was more diversity with treasure. When you find a chest it is pretty much always going to be rupees, a weapon, or clothes. I wish you would occasionally find mysterious or like lore related items. There is so much treasure everywhere and it would be awesome if it was more unpredictable and did more with the world.

that's the end state of every open world game. if they added more different items in chests you would still eventually run out and complain about how there isn't enough. i think the game is the most varied open world game i have seen in terms of content but it is still an open world game.

That makes a lot of sense. I should have foregrounded my post better because what I was asking for is basically what you gave me: "I find myself dwelling on something that I think is wrong, but I am pretty sure its because I'm being stupid and expecting this game to defy reality and genre conventions in all conceivable ways at all times."

After about 40 hours in I decided to ditch my first playthrough in favor of Master Mode, and it's been a ton of fun so far. The first bit of gameplay is mostly stealthing and running for my life but you get so many good weapons almost consistently with every chest. It reminds me a lot of a lot of Platinum/Clover games' hardest difficulty where enemies die in just a few hits but you do as well. It makes combat a lot more fun, especially how enemies seem to stumble less. It helped me also realize that dodging is consistent regardless of camera direction; that is pushing back and jump always does a backflip which was screwing me up before because I thought it was relative. Also a weird change is that Guardians will randomly hold their fire so you can't reliably perfect parry their beams, which is fine because it felt like cheesing to just fearlessly run at them because I had a shield before. I haven't found much to complain about so far in Master Mode, but I have to say I'm not looking forward to the Master Sword challenge dungeon since Eventide was nail-bitingly horrifying.

Eventually I just started having fun an not caring that my magic glowy ancient sword broke over the head of a lame moblin and it worked better. My only real regret weapon I lost was that thing that's like '11 folded sword' or something you get in the shrine that teaches you dodging. Haven't seen another one of those.

I just wanted to add that this was me as well for quite a while. I'm still not incredibly graceful with dodges and the like, but I did eventually twig that they are absolute and not relative. sexpig by night posted:this was a big obstacle for me just because I'm a chronic RPG Hoarder. This is also me. I haven't played Master Mode yet and I'm not really tempted, but I just cannot resist the temptation to always use my weakest weapon first and always make sure that I have as close to full weapons as possible. Keep in mind that I have every single inventory space upgrade and I still do that. I like to call it "but I might need it later" syndrome.

I was really worried about weapons for awhile in Master Mode but already kind of at the point where I kind of just throw away anything that isn't an ice rod, great elemental blade, or has 40+ damage. Need 17 korok seeds for next inventory upgrade and really should be running around with the mask on more to help with that. I do constantly run low on shields though but that's partially because I know a lot less respawning shield spots than weapons but mostly because I am addicted to surfing.

I just experienced a really weird glitch. On Master Mode, since I already knew how to use the Sheikah Sensor +, I didn't bother talking to the guy in Purah's lab until the game was basically finished. I did his quest and got the cutscene where a picture was supposed to get filled in automatically. Only... instead of a single picture, it gave me an entire category of pictures. Every single picture in the 'Materials' column, to be specific. That's... that's not normal, is it? Am I misremembering? Because I am pretty sure that's not what happened the other times I've done this quest.

Maybe you just accidentally bought all the pictures of a certain category? You can just buy pictures from him to fill out the compendium.

I'd had an endgame save for quite a while, so I figured today to just do it and finish. And then immediately started a new game. Figured I'd beeline to Faron Tower, collect Hearty Durians from the nearby durian grove, give myself a bunch of +20 extra hearts, then raid on Hyrule Castle: first for the armory, then for the shield. The biggest puzzle so far has been climbing Faron with only one pip of Stamina -- eventually puzzled it out by using the nearby Octoroks to get their gasbladders and attaching them to a nearby slab. Burned four of them, jumped off after the last two had popped, using Stasis along the way to steady the drop, and then hand-glided to a good halfway point up on the Tower. Was rad. Awesome what you can do with this game once you know what you're doing.

That is... an amazing improvised solution to that tower. Made even more amazing and hilarious by the fact that if you lift up a certain slab, it straight up reveals a jet of air that will just propel you to the halfway point.

I'm not sure I've ever really climbed that tower from the bottom as opposed to just finding higher ground to fly in from. "Find a mountain to glide down from" has been my solution to how to get around most things.

Unfortunately I can't find the YouTube video where I saw this, but it involved buying multiple copies of an item (any item) at a shop before buying the picture.

Master Mode positively drowns you in gems due to ask the silver enemies, so I've taken to buying out the inventory of basically every shop I come across just so I can say I used my money for something. Link will save the Hylian economy as well as it's people!

Master Mode doesn't translate very well in the Master Sword challenge dungeon. Which is weird because it's part of the same DLC. The most offensive room in particular is floor 10 of the very first challenge, it's the hardest room of the entire challenge in my opinion. You start off immediately getting caught because of the extended view range of monsters when it isn't an issue on any other floor, and then there's so much water and so little land that the only enemies you fight (two silver Lizalfos and one blue one) will constantly flop into the water (or dodge into it), then regen all their health before they get back. I had to cheese it pretty hard by using a dragon horn to make a 30 minute attack boosting potion, saving all my good stuff specifically for it, and mag dumping all my arrows into them. Even then I set up a barricade using the magnetic boxes so they'd stop falling in. It's all just because the design makes it impossible to stop them from falling in the water over and over and then they undo all your work via regen. Every other room is fun, this one is just awful.

Not an uncommon complaint, and definitely something that should have been caught in play testing. Other ways to triumph over that room include chaining sneak attacks, and setting fires for the lizalfos to roast in. The fire one especially deserves points for sheer ingenuity.

I just went to a mountain peak I hadn't climbed before and treasure chests are falling from the sky for some reason. I guess I'm supposed to shield-surf after them? I just stasised one and hit it once with my sword to stop it dead in it's tracks. I think thats one of the weirdest things I've run into in 156 hours of playing.

On my first run through the game, I just finished the dlc master sword trial(holy gently caress that last floor of the last trial). Super stoked with my fancy max roid sword I decided to explore the world again!  My first exploration choice? The island in the bottomright of the map.
