I think the design principle is not to limit your movement or make transportation a barrier I mean it’s less that you’re limited and more that it will probably take a bit more ingenuity to do certain things especially early on when your battery and access to materials isn’t as big. if they didn’t want battery power to matter at all they wouldn’t have put it there

Pirate Radar posted:There's so much comedy in the preview footage we've seen so far. It's not just fusing an elemental gem to an arrow and then discovering the resulting explosion has a huge radius and you get caught in it and die. It's building a horrible contraption that doesn't manage to go anywhere. It's trying to throw bomb flowers at enemies, completely missing the first throw, then hitting a pile of explosive barrels with the second and seeing a moblin simply disappear from the screen. It's building a horrible contraption that does go somewhere, but it tears itself apart or throws you off and flies off into the distance without you.

Apparently in addition to rocket arrows you can also put a rocket on a spear and make a rocket javelin

The idea that TotK will have more slapstick potential is wonderful. This one came out the month of launch and has just over 8 million views. Is it the one you're thinking of? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=scMvXB0BEmY

Heads up to anyone who wasn't able to get a preorder for the collector's edition. I work at Meijer (mid western department store) and I checked on the computer to see how many copies we were getting in and the CE is in our system and we are getting 2. Dunno if we are doing a midnight release as we close at midnight now but it might be worth checking walmart/target/wherever and hope to get lucky

I am glad to hear that Koroks are in TOTK and apparently are pretty much the same. I really like randomly stumbling on mini-puzzles as I'm just wandering around. And hopefully doing stuff like "find the rock and put it back in place" will bolster my self-esteem as I spend most of my time staring slack-jawed at a pile of crap the game expects me to turn into a surgery robot or something.

I had no idea that Meijer sold anything other than groceries and there is one like 20 minutes away, wondering if that would be better. My son’s birthday is on the 13th and he is a BOTW fiend and has been itching for this game since it’s announcement, so the plan is to grab the collectors edition if I can on the morning of the 12th. Does anyone think there will be people camping overnight for this or anything? I think that seems crazy for this but will never underestimate what people will camp overnight for these days and i’m planning on showing up a little before the store opens.

I feel pretty dumb for realizing the reason ToTK is basically a direct sequel that massively expands on the scope of the setting (besides, you know, the pragmatic ones) is because that’s what Zelda 2 did. Also, they should remake Zelda 1 at some point. Just give me a $40 budget remake that has all the environmental fuckery of BOTW as a top down classic 2.5D game as an experiment in “how to make 2D Zelda combat more involved than “swing sword” going forward” like how LBW was a big old experiment on non-linear Zelda that BOTW cribbed.

I doubt it will happen because no Zelda games have ever done this, but I'm praying totk has a better master mode or multiple difficulty settings. My perfect "hard mode" would just be the enemies doing roughly double damage without also having inflated hitpointsLube Enthusiast posted:I hope the camera & compendium make a return. Getting (perfectly framed, front facing) photos of everything was fun i would be shocked if they killed the selfie cam. even if it doesn't serve a gameplay purpose in the sequel, it's an amazing promotional tool for the game itself Polo-Rican fucked around with this message at 15:41 on Apr 27, 2023 |

Well folks with the reviews and everything else starting to pop up it's time for me to dip. I (hopefully) will be picking up my TOTK switch tomorrow and using that to get back into BOTW to remember the world, maybe hunt some koroks and just have some fun with the game until Tears is out. So I'll be back in like uh.... probably June or July after I finally finish the game and spend 300 hours exploring everything. It was great to get hype as hell for this game with you all.

Wow, i'm just now in BotW learning the incredible power of shock resistance food. Shock resistance level 3 literally makes you immune to electric effects. Like link won't even flinch, they'll just pass through you like you were wearing the thunder helm. And you can make these with like three voltfin trout! never get hit by an electric attack ever again!! literally the only thing unshockable has over shock resistance level 3 is that you will still be damaged by lightning bolts unless you have unshockable. this is so useful for so many sections of the game it's a wonder how i never thought to actually try the thing what's supposed to help against electric attacks in all the lightning-infested areas like ridgeland tower.

I plan on being outside of Best Buy 15 minutes before they open, and that’s not even because I need to buy a copy - I have it pre-ordered, I just want to pick it up as soon as possible!!!

If this game ends up being the Majora's Mask to BotW's Ocarina of Time, I will be a happy clam. Zelda Maker would rule.

I would like to see the creations that came out of a Zelda Maker, but Mario Maker taught me that an active 2d platform level already stretches me creatively. There's no way I could come up with an interesting overworld or dungeon.

I want a Zelda maker so freakin' bad, but all the romhacks and such, to say nothing of Mario Maker levels, have convinced me that what people want out of that sort of thing is ridiculously difficult challenges and those don't appeal to me at all, so I'd probably just play my own maps. A remake of Zelda 1, however, would make me a very happy gal. 2D, 3D, one tiny area of a huge overworld like Zelda 2... Anything. Nintendo is really good at nostalgia because they rarely settle for pointing at a thing and saying "remember that?"
