the mainline story in this one truly sucks, though it’s barely worth consideration compared to everything else it tries to combine the traditional games’ stiff story structure with botw’s minimalism and almost every plot beat suffers for it

Oh, I found this game's equivalent to the Durian Farm. the secret hot springs cave in sturnida basin in Hebra directly north of the lake Kinzie text on the map Probably about 6 hearty truffles that heal to full and give extra hearts. Need to find a shrine nearby for warping now...

Regarding Hestu, entering Korok Grove and clearing the sidequest for saving the Great Deku Tree will cause him to move to that area, even if you haven’t met him anywhere else before.

Oh wow, just spotted Dinraal for the first time  The compendium says it bears no ill will towards people, though, so I won't have to fight it, right?...right?

Rand Brittain posted:Getting better armor is significantly more meaningful to your survival than having more heart containers. Rageaholic posted:I've been selling gems and buying what armor I can but rupees have been not so plentiful so far It's not just new armor, it's also upgrading what you've got. For example, one heart container is four more hit points. The starting set you can get at Lookout reduces damage by nine to start but upgrading all three pieces gives six more damage reduction. That said, the game has a built-in system that prevents a lot of enemy attacks from being a OHKO if you're at full health, leaving you with one HP, or a quarter of a heart. If you see that happen to you there's a good chance the attack did more damage than you have health, so adding one or two hearts or a small increase in defense won't be enough to meaningfully impact the hits you can take before dying. Just remember to heal all the way to full, even if you have to stuff your face with uncooked stuff, and you'll be able to survive a bit easier until you can get a combination of both more defense and more health.

Also gotta stay stocked up on faeries so being killed isn't really a problem so much as a warning.

Oxxidation posted:the mainline story in this one truly sucks, though it’s barely worth consideration compared to everything else I'm far from done, but it's extremely weird how the plot is beat for beat the exact same as BOTW's, to the extent that you'd think people would comment on it. Like, Sidon's getting premonitions from an ancestor about something bad that happened along time ago. No, not Mipha, another ancestor. The lands of Hyrule are littered with the remains of ancient robots. No, not Guardians, these are different robots. Speaking of which, what happened to the Guardians? Where are the Divine Beasts? The length of the timeskip can only be like 5-10 years at most based on how people have aged, but it feels like a hundred years have passed in terms of what people remember. Whenever it gets mentioned that Zelda is missing, most characters are just like, "oh, y'haven't found her yet, huh?" Also, several people remember Link seeing as he and Zelda, y'know, saved the world, but a lot of people speak to you as if they're meeting you for the first time. Lady, this is the second time I've saved Rito Village, give me a little credit. Some individual plots are good and the way Nintendo gives even the smallest of players lovely bits of characterization and charm is, as always, stellar, but the story is just really bad. Still love the game, though.

So... I gotta say I'm a little bit disappointed with this game. Don't get me wrong, it's definitely A Good Game, and I'll probably put in another 50 hours before I finish it, but to me, it just doesn't feel like Zelda. I'm just not sure why they went all-in on Ultrahand. I know lots of people love this kind of thing, but it's such a specific mechanic and it's one that I just don't care for, as a rule. Never played Banjo Kazooie Nuts and Bolts, or Minecraft, or Terraria or Fortnite or basically any game that asks you to build stuff, I just don't find it to be that fun. And it's so all-encompassing a mechanic that every few minutes, I have to stop being Link and engage the "building stuff" side of my brain. It just feels like it drags everything to a screeching halt every time, especially because it feels so fiddly trying to get pieces to attach at just the right angle and spot. And honestly, Fuse would be a fine concept on its own, but not paired with Ultrahand. It's just too much fiddling around with weapons and rocks and sharp bits from your inventory ON TOP of all the fiddling around with boards and capsules. Like I said, it's not a bad game at all, and I had a lot of fun doing the first dungeon earlier, which felt a lot more like what I wanted from a Zelda game, but yeah. Most of it just doesn't feel much like Zelda. Running through the open world is cool, exploration feels great, I love that they populated it with so many villagers, I just wish so many of the things that it asks me to do weren't sticking together some boards and a fan in the right combination.

CapnAndy posted:See, you say that, and now I find myself wondering, what if I glue a wing and some fans onto the bridle pull thing? Horse can't refuse to jump down if I levitate it over the hole. I'm thinking stabilizer to make a plank over the hole, stone slab with some gizmo to slow it's descent, attached to a wooden plank over the hole which you make your house walk over with zl. Then when you are standing your horse on the stone slab, you shoot a fire arrow at the wood plank, destroying it and freeing the slab you're on to fall. Then another arrow to activate your slow fall zonai device that the thing you are standing on is attached to

There's a set that I have to fight to get somewhere so running by isn't an option 7-10 bomb arrows at the center of it before it even gets to you. Each hand has a separate health bar, so bomb arrows get all of them. If it grabs you, just load a save cause you’re cooked lol

Man, it is insane how much faster the depths are traversed when lit up Apparently chasms can be in caves which is great because I've spent an hour looking for a specific one with no luck Hawkperson posted:Yiga clan’s evolution into mad max monster truck wrestling heel villains is one of the best parts of this stellar loving game even if I spent a really long time just looking up at that plane boss and going “how the gently caress do I do that??” I finally just autobuilt a hot air balloon and dived on him from above Homing arrows.

There's a quest in Faron where you need to repair a bridge from the shore to a ship. But every time I fix the bridge with Ultrahand, it immediately breaks again. What am I doing wrong? I've tried building my own bridge but the game doesn't recognize that as a proper solution.

That sky Island that is reachable from the tower near rito village that has the rocket pachinko, there's two ponds with sluice gates, what is the solution there? I tried using recall and ultrahand to lift both at the same time but couldnt get it to work right.

For the first ever I just had to skip several pages of the Zelda thread. I’ve been playing this game with every spare moment since release and I feel like maybe I’ve done like, a third of it? I started off so slow and cautious and exploring every little thing but I had this constant FOMO feeling and now I’m just zipping around the map completing big content and uncovering the story and having a ball. Can’t wait until I feel comfortable going back to the slower exploration because I have barely touched the caves. Greatest of all the time.

I tried using recall and ultrahand to lift both at the same time but couldnt get it to work right. If it's the one I'm remembering, you've basically got it. I didn't use Recall, just Ultrahand, the provided logs and the hooks on the arches to hold up the gates.
