Yeah I was like 'what the gently caress is this some kind of mining drill?' and attached it to my shield. Whoops.

I never have my shields break... Until I fight a silver Lynel and burn through like 6 in a row. My fault for missing the backflip dodges but drat it's really like one hit even in 60+ shields

Getting ready to overkill the boss is going to be such a blast. Picking up one of each legendary clan sword, fighting a rare boss to fuse it's poo poo, hitting up the special spots for faeries and truffles, making sure I got some baller defense turrets in AutoBuild memory. I'm sure you can beat whatever the final boss is with 3 hearts and a couple sticks like last game but still, I'm gonna make mince meat.

God dammit, I was wondering what was up with those, but I took a shower this morning and it hit me like a ton of bricks

Also, was I the only one that stumbled into the Korok Forest by sheer accident? I was loving around the Depths, got really lost then saw what looked like the Temple mini-Purah or whatever was talking about. Found a spot that looked suspiciously like it was made for Ascend and then OH HEY GREAT DEKU TREE WHY ARE VOMITING PURPLE SMOKE EVERYWHERE

turns out the fun dude who comes to party can "nothing personal kid" teleport behind you sometimes. I was trying to cheese him out by shooting him with bomb arrows from a Lionel bow I found in a chest while standing on a ledge that the hands couldn't get to.

Game is excellent. Scratches the same itch games like Prey or Death Stranding do in its problem solving. It's more or less Little Big Planet/Garry's Mod mushed up with Elden Ring.

Speaking of rings: no ring on the shrines.

my problem with this is the economy, I dont remember Death Stranding has resource intensive when I just want to build a truck to move a kokoro seed around, … after 30 hours I want a upgrade that make items free

Are you using the gumball machines? If you use 5 charges, then what you get out of them is always the same and there's always a shrine nearby to teleport to.

It is not always the same because I've done 2 batches of 5 charges on a machine, first pull still had a ??? device on the list and second pull I got said device. Like each machine had a spread of what it can produce but it's not a fixed output.

The real question is if it's always an even split on the chance to pull a given device or if they have weighting.

I put in 5x big orbs and then like 40 or so little orbs at a gumball machine that had relatively few items, one of which was rocket. I didn't keep track of before and after stock(except rockets at 0), but by the time I had 60 rockets stored, I had 90s of the small light and other thing I didn't care about.

Yeah, I’ve barely touched the sky islands. I need to head to Hateno for gizmos but I keep getting sidetracked.

Question about cherry blossoms:

What exactly are Sartori revealing? It’s obviously caves but are these caves special or something? I thought it might be clothing locations but the last one revealed didn’t appear to have anything. You can tell by the wooden poles with cloth sticking out.

My brain doesn't either because Ascend goes against everything BOTW taught me about going upwards: You either Climb/Revali's Gale/Fire, my 35 year old gamer brain isn't wired to think "Yeah, just swim through the loving platform above you."

Ah yes. The *issue* with gloom spawn that happens after you think you’ve dealt with them. I’m familiar with the problem. Have yet to solve it myself, so I’m still running away from them.

Okay, good to know, that confirms a bunch of caves I visited had nothing since they were blocked by rocks and such. Still haven't found the other parts of the climbing set which would be very useful... this game could really have used some quick-change of sets.
