I hear tell where Oaki's a big boy and can make the whole trip by himself, even the wolf part. ...of course, you are still kind of following him to the shrine, aren't you? Or does it show up on your map?

The shrine does not show up. The quest marker stays on Tasho.

I haven't tried it myself, but I'm pretty sure you if you know the path yourself you can just run ahead and go straight to the shrine without bothering to follow him.

Oh man, I just found this thread and I am unreasonably happy that someone decided to do an LP of this game.

Let me disclose that I have never really been a huge fan of the Zelda games, mostly because I suck at them--I tend to spaz over minor jump scares so the N64 games were like survival horror for me.

But I loved, loved, LOVED the ambience of this game--the art style, the feel, the gameplay, all of it. Even you, Thunderblight Ganon :v:

Ugh, really? I saved Vah Naboris for last mostly because of how tough I heard Thunderblight Ganon was and because of those Yiga fuckers. I am horrendous at pretty much anything stealth, so I put it off as long as I could.

I quite unwisely did Vah Naboris first.

poo poo really, that’s the toughest one? After hours of exploring everything it ended up being the first Devine beast I did. Hopefully the rest are still a challenge in comparison.

The Yiga hideout involved a lot of ice arrows.

They could have just left a warning about turning the WiFi (VahFi?) in the old legend.

Also Link is totally patching the security hole when he's activating the terminals in the divine beasts.

I have... I just have no words for that. I mean, it started all serious and stuff, with Link meeting another leader and all that... Then, you jump into the fountain behind her, and start climbing up the building.

That twin bomb shrine looks fun.

Then... Bananas. And Ninjas. And Bananinjas.
The Yiga clan sure has gone downhill. Those big guys with the wind swords are mean fuckers though. And the boss... The loving boss... what the hell.

So I cleared that shrine much more easily/way harder.

Simply put I got to the end, looked at the ceiling jets, dropped the ice cube on the magnetic block from above and then used magnesis to finagle the ice cube next to the switch. That took a lot of tries to get right...

The funny thing is in my first playthrough, I had a vague idea that the Yiga had a hideout you could find.

And they kept dropping bananas.

So I went and scoured the entire rainforest section where bananas grow top to bottom, befuddled about why the Yiga hideout was not there.

Oooooh, Banana!

But yeah, the Gerudo are easily my second race in this game after the Rito though the Gorons, Koroks, and Zora are great too.

I mentioned early on that this setting is really fitting for a tabletop rpg or an MMORPG since not only are at least five potentially playable races, seven if you add the Sheikah and Koroks, but each race has their own unique culture in the game so you could have a lot of fun with character creation.

You don't even need to have a serious campaign either, this LP shows that a completely goofy and idiotic campaign like what I've seen some goons do in streams would work just as well.

He's the only one that plays out like a traditional Zelda boss. Like something you'd face at the end of the dungeon that gets you the bow, mostly concerned around turning his attacks against him so you can whack him with your sword a few times and boom! Next phase.

And Yami, I would give Kohga a pass on the Sheikah slate, considering he is technically a Sheikah.

Also: Pork roll.
