Captain Hygiene posted:This feels pretty close to me, I think I usually ignore them after 25 or 30 seeds. Just a few weapon and shield slots feels like enough to get over aggravation at running low. After that point, I'll pointedly ignore anything that even looks like it might be a korok puzzle. There’s also the part where BOTW encourages you to develop your own fighting style - I found pretty quickly that I love archery in the game, so I deprioritized melee weapons and straight-up stopped expanding my shield inventory at four slots in favor of expanding my bow inventory to the point where I can always have like fifteen bows to choose from at any time

I also learned I was fine just running and dodging enemies instead of fighting them, so my Link was more of a guerilla fighter regarding bows, a very small spoiler: bows which fire multiple arrows do not actually use more arrows. it magically duplicates or triplicates them. don't be like me and shy away from those bows because they are INSANELY powerful and will not drain your precious arrows like you'd fear

On seeds, I myself feel comfortable when I have about ten weapons on me, and I want 14 slots so I can have a hammer and leaf and torch or whatever. I want as many weapons as Doomguy etc.

Hammers are good for fighting Talus in the early game if they've got the stone on their upper back. Spin 2 win.

If you really need a sledgehammer at any point in the game there's one just lying out above Owa Daim Shrine on a shelf to the west. There's plenty of other spots but you'll have to do it anyway to get off the Great Plateau so that's a reliable one that'll always be there.

They drop all the time and as soon as an enemy smacks them you can counter with lots of damage, even Lynels.

weird coincidence because I was JUST talking about Idle Thumbs and Breath of the Wild with one of my neighbors (he's a fellow Gamer, it's not as weird as it sounds) BotW really was the ultimate successor to Idle Thumbs-y games, like RFG and Far Cry 2 WarpDogs fucked around with this message at 03:24 on Apr 16, 2023 |

That doesn't sound weird at all. Games have been mainstream for quite some time. Nobody thinks of it as nerd poo poo anymore. Geek culture is just culture now.

Heavy Metal posted:On seeds, I myself feel comfortable when I have about ten weapons on me, and I want 14 slots so I can have a hammer and leaf and torch or whatever. I want as many weapons as Doomguy etc. I’ll be honest: my first game play through I was one of the lucky ones that hit that one week window where there was a glitch that could get you hundreds of korok seeds/poops in a matter of an hour or so and I maxed out my slots. The glitch was patched by Nintendo toute suite and I still have that save where my Link is a loving murder god. But I’ve also started the game around 5 or 6 other times in a separate slot just to play again. I always feel mostly satisfied with 4 shield slots and around 6 sword slots then the rest in now slots. Sometimes I don’t even get up to that many on my restart games so the challenge is fun. Also donning the shieka gear and being a silent sniper with arrows is one of my favorite ways to play

pentyne posted:Not sure about the hammer/axe but the one you definitely need to keep is a torch, maybe a korok leaf(can't remember why). This is no doubt due to differences in playstyles, but I'd always keep a sledgehammer or another mining tool plus an axe around but never a torch or a leaf. I feel like whenever those latter 2 become important to solve something, the game tends to provide you with the tool nearby. But ore deposits and axeable wooden things like crates are simply everywhere. I also like to keep a flame weapon around to start fires easily, but that's less important because you always have some flint and/or fire arrows.

Woke up in a cold sweat and realized zelda games that have direct sequels are AoL > LoZ LA > alttp MM > OoT Hmmmmmm totk... >botw???? (Yes, without even playing it, its obvious) Playing n64 MM right now and im getting reminded how great it by just nit carbon copying oot other than reusing assets (full priced dlc???) and how insane it is they pulled all this poo poo off in 2000. Im hoping ill get to play through ww, tp and ss before totk drops but lol drowning in video games rn like its 1997-1999 again Vikar Jerome fucked around with this message at 08:33 on Apr 16, 2023 |

MokBa posted:Ever since that first trailer with Bacon Ganon, I've been curious as to what it was we fought at the end of BotW. I assumed the Spider Ganon with the creepy skull was the remains of his body, but I guess not. No idea if we'll get an explanation or just have to fill in the gaps. I'd always assumed that was an emergency body Ganon pulled together at the last minute, the equivilent of panicking when somene knocks your door and you show up with your shirt on upside down.

All this hype for TotK had me dust off my copy of BotW and play it last night. According to my save, I hadn't played since Dec 2018. I have all shrines and beat the DLC, so I figured I'd wander around and try to find some more Korok seeds. I started the night with 283 seeds. Looked at my Hero's Path to see areas I hadn't touched and tried to focus there to get more. A couple hours later, and I was at 295 Korok seeds. You'd think the world would just be saturated with Korok puzzles with 900 seeds being out there, but the map really is big enough to spread things out. I'm sure I missed some in areas I explored, too, because it's very easy to overlook things. Also, I totally forgot how to play the game and was getting wrecked by every enemy I stumbled upon.
