For example there are caves around and each one has something special to find which might be well hidden in there; is that different from yet another shrine or korok? There's a few more things to find around the place, but the gameplay and gameflow isn't fundamentally different. If your turnoff was at the basic gameplay level, don't go looking for a change here.

I found a potential bug/exploit (seems pretty niche so I doubt it's that useful but it was interesting) during combat with a hinox I was in the middle of doing a spin attack with a two hander but I was also pressing A trying to steal the items from its neck, it put me in like the weapon select screen where you get an item but don't have room, the hit sound started spamming and when I exited that menu my sword broke and it got one shotted

Of all the unexpected plot elements, I think the most surprising has been the Zora kingdom being besieged by showers of poo from the sky  Now that's how you generate a dramatic story!

So I uh, just randomly stumbled onto the loving Hylian Shield. Funny thing is, if you are good at dodging/running I'm pretty sure you can get it like 10 minutes after getting the Paraglider back from Purah.

I've seen a lot of people who have bounced off BotW because it felt "empty" to them do a full 180 and fully embrace TotK. The world just feels a lot more lively and active. There are more NPCs around, more quests, and a new central hub town that evolves over the course of the game. The game world is also a lot bigger with more diversity of content due to the presence of the sky islands, all the new caves, and that which lies underground. Many areas in the overworld that felt empty in BotW have new things happening in them. Though yes, at its core, this is still very much like BotW, just with more of everything. edit: That said, they haven't given in to the theme-park style of open world game design. There are still lots of moments where you have to find your own way to a destination, which involves getting on your horse and galloping through the countryside, taking in the sights, occasionally dismounting to do a side activity or whatever. It's not like every moment is scripted/designed. So if that's something you dislike, then this game may continue not being for you.

It’s kinda like BotW in terms of mechanics and gameplay but the rest couldn’t be more different. I had to force myself to play it because so many people say it’s good, I’m currently playing TOTK like a loving absolute crackhead

I wonder how much the "eh" on botw but hype on totk comes down to botw having most of its secrets revealed, while totk is still extremely fresh. Like, there's slowly maps coming out, but even post-leak you can't just do everything

Augus posted:some of them are inside caves and wells, or just have the posts and you have to find the crystal yeah i have found a few cave ones and i think i've done most to all of the sky ones that have quests attached to them in addition to the regular ones up there. i could prolly very easily beat the game right now but, why bother there's so much i can do instead.

Any special trick for getting bokoblin guts to drop? I need a bunch for armor upgrades and I feel like it shouldn’t be this rare a drop. Have had zero drops of regular and boss guts after a couple hours of farming.

ChrisBTY posted:Dammit I thought I explored it front and back! My first time down there I was scrabbling around for over an hour just constantly finding a new branch or pathway, then I'd ascend into some other secret chamber and keep going. And yet every time I've been back I like get turned around and lost and can't find the last major branch way I remember seeing but not exploring, and where presumably last price of a set I want is. What a crazy deep network of tunnels, really cool.

Are star fragments good for anything useful or super cool? I've gotten a couple, and turning them into hyrulebux so I can actually afford to buy things is sounding pretty attractive given how low on money I am compared to BotW.

DEEP STATE PLOT posted:i am at 87 shrines done and i think i'm at the point where i can't just find them by looking through my scope after utilizing towers anymore I've got a bit over 100 and I'm still finding whole rear end obvious surface ones lol. Yesterday I was cruising around on foot for a moment after emerging from some cave through ascend to get my bearings and I found a whole horse house I hadn't found yet. Did a quest for the stable on my horse and thought I was heading back to the stable to turn in the quest... No! I brought us to another new undiscovered stable. I still have surface to cover, but for the sneaky ones it'll be easier to find them in this game. I've already found a few that way just curious what it's like up there.

I had some spear fused with another spear that gave me enough reach to poke the bastards without getting stuck in some horrible grabbing chain. Even that seemed to work mostly because they seemed slightly occupied by the spirit squad.

I don't know, but the electric stone (yellow gem) turns your weapon into a wand that shot balls of electricity that slowly fly around. I have not use it to fight, seems to precious for that Mr. Trampoline posted:Is there a better tool for smashing open blue/black rocks than boulder + 2hander, because those take a whole lot of hits story spoiler when you complete the goron area story, you get a goron friend that small large areas of stone on demand. Too bad he does it on a cooldown, so you either wait, or use some weapons durability

hosed up that I must be here, at work, instead of playing more of this loving game i told one of my coworker friends about the great plateau plotline "i skydived into a massive cavern, met a giant statue with the god of the dead inside, then got ambushed by a group of evil ninjas who ran me over with a monster truck" and his consensus is that the game is a fever dream, and thats incredible.

Oh, also, what are you all fusing to your shields? I haven't really found any "primary" one and it seems that most like dazzlefruit are single-use which I find cumbersome. Still, a few fun ones: cannon, light, puffer shroom Is there something I can fuse for like added durability?

I tried to select Rewind when the floor started to fall away but I wasn’t fast enough so I was already in the air and couldn’t activate it. It’s only like 5 minutes per attempt but it feels so intricate with all the jumps. A Blood Moon would really top the whole experience off.

One of the gorons has a diamond store in the middle of town and says something about fusing diamonds to your shield being a good idea I don't know if it works like weapons where some stuff is "better" than other stuff in terms of adding durabilty, or if it's like weapons where no matter what you fuse it just can take another N hits as long as the fused thing doesn't break
