You have to spam 5 high-end ingredients, the peppers are basic stuff.

I like the BOTW stealth sections  In fact since I finished the game long long ago I like to go around doing as much poo poo in full stealth mode just for shits and giggles (a lot of the 1-Hit Obliterator sections I started doing this) because I find it really fun.

Stealth is also never required in BotW. You can fight your way through the Yiga hideout if you git gud enough (they have massively inflated attack but otherwise normal Yiga stats) and the Korok one you can just run right to the end and the little dude will wander over eventually. You will have to backtrack a bit when the wolves spawn but that's like right near the end anyways.

the korok one is tedious but it's also easy and takes like five minutes. hardly worth getting up in arms about the yiga clan I can understand the complaints about but it didn't really bother me too much. just wear the sheika outfit, which you should be wearing anyway (normally with the lynel mask)

My biggest gripe in BotW is honestly that you can't just redo the obliterator part from a menu or something.

Remember when people said that the backlash to Skyward Sword was just the "Zelda Cycle" at work? But it came out 8 years ago, and there has been no resurgence of appreciation for it. And there never should be.

I had no trouble getting that quest done first try as intended on my first playthrough and wondered a bit why people were complaining about it. Then on my second playthrough the motherfucker kept noticing me all the time until I gave up and just booked it to the shrine to wait for him.

Skyward Sword is good*, but you need a dead system and a specific controller for that system to even play it. *obviously it has problems but most of them are easy fixes

I never thought I'd be creeped out by something in a Zelda game but I just did the Zora love letter quest and it was extremely uncomfortable. In less disturbing news I flew over to the labyrinth island behind the Akkala lab and got the Barbarian Helm, my first thought was "Hey maybe I can upgrade this and it'll be really good for fighting Lynels!" And then the level one upgrade requires a Lynel Horn. Oof. I also feel like I missed the Climbing Shirt or whatever at some point, I have the bandanna and pants but never found a shirt and it sucks because I want that set bonus.

It is played that way, but only if you've actually paid attention to the various pieces of information on the Zora that get dropped in NPC dialogues, etc. You may have noticed they're basically elves so they age at least three times as slow as humans/hylians. Not that, yeah, it actually makes it come across better.

Yeah remember Sidon is at minimum 110 years old and he's basically a teen. The Zora King is over 400. Which means Mipha was a lot older than Link when she was alive. Also she partially raised him according to the Champion's DLC which turns her crush/proposal into something super creepy.

I was expecting like a comedy bokoblin or something that you'd fight, but no, you just got a pointy-eared fishnoncer

The "She's actually like 20 or 30" thing might have (it wouldn't but at least they'd have tried) come off a bit better if the quest didn't start with her mother going "I haven't seen my daughter around in a while, I hope she's not playing around at the Bank of Wishes" as if she's still a kid. I finally found Kilton and unloaded a bunch of monster parts on him, I have like 3k Mon which isn't anywhere near enough because I think I've heard the higher end stuff costs a couple thousand apiece. I didn't get the squeaky hammer though I thought about it, 199 mon for a joke weapon just seems like a bad deal. I also finally bought the house and now I have no rupees, which sucks because I still haven't bought the Soldier's armor (not that I really need it but it seems a waste to not get it) and also the Ancient equipment at Akkala costs a bunch too.

The Yiga clan section is only really a stealth section if you want it to be, assuming you upgraded Stasis. I didn't use the bananas at all or even kill anyone this most recent playthrough.

Iirc, you can also glean from incidental dialogue that that particular zora is supposed to be a late bloomer, and the rest of her peer group at least look like adolescents. Still creepy tho

Honestly wish Nintendo had taken some creative liberties with the dialogue and instead made it a correspondance between academics studying, uhhhhhhhh, fish populations, or some poo poo. that's all you have to change to suddenly make it a story about stuffy academics getting schooled by a child expert. that's cute. that's a good moral for the children. pescatarian pederasts get the gently caress out.

I didn't mainline that quest, I started it, did a step a couple hours later, and then I think waaaay after I bet the rest of the divine beasts and maybe even Ganon I finished it, so I uh... I didn't really know what was going on and was very confused. Apparently this is what was going on. Yikes.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure that's officially confirmed. I feel like during that era they were stumbling a bit, trying to appease fans with a pretty lovely timeline, and trying to get casual players to get into Skyward Sword. Now that Breath of the Wild is out, I don't think anyone cares about timelines anymore, so of course they'd just go "eh whatever it's been like million years and it's everywhere at once just play the game"

Any two given Zelda games will have a straightforward shared continuity, if not necessarily an obvious one; you only start to run into bullshit ideas when you have to reconcile more of them. Breath of the Wild can be interpreted very well as a direct sequel to Skyward Sword, for instance.
