I was telling a friend earlier how TotK is giving me a really weird feeling

I just finished Octopath 2 and I felt like Octopath 2 made the first Octopath feel like a beta test. Octopath 1 was so underbaked and hollow and then 2 came around and was stuffed full of life, creativity, and fun and is an incredible game.

And then I start playing TotK and somehow this makes Breath of the loving Wild feel like a beta test. How. How the hell did they pull this off

They smoked so much weed.

I wanted to do this but think I'm blocked. Do I have to do a dungeon first? Purah and Josha just won't give me anything else yet

yeah it didnt advance for me until id done one of the main markers. but also idk if its actually a gate or just a breadcrumb, seemed like you could just go do it if you knew where it was/found it

You can find it on your own. The quest is just a breadcrumb. If you get it before you get the quest it just instantly completes.

This is the best change, aside from the max heart containers lining up on the hud.

My first visit to the depths probably wasn't supposed to be going down the hole in eventide Island and dying 10009 times before winning an unexpected hat in a coliseum fight huh

maybe. i wandered there before any dungeons in the southwest direction from the initial abyss site and found it before the quest leading you there.

I went back to visit the Great Plateau and found a hidden Yiga den under the Shrine of Resurrection with a construct in it who told me he'd give me a present if I went to see a forge in the Depths. this game is massive

drat upgrading your armor makes such a huge different.

Went from Black Bokoblins taking six hearts to doing 1 heart with just two upgrades to each piece of armor.

Just finished the Temple of Wind. Simple but interesting design and the boss was also fairly simple but perfectly executed, epic and fun. Chills when the Dragon Roost music kicked in. Almost just hung around the fight for a while because I didn't want it to end. Thank You Nintendo

1 armor point value = 1 quarter heart damage reduction if its the same as botw

all the voices in all the languages are pretty bad but the lip flaps are most accurate in japanese and i like the little non-cutscene grunts and noises from the japanese voice actors

Yeah I'm actually really interested in where the hell it's going which I didn't expect. It seems to be giving a big middle finger to timeline weirdos too which gets my wholehearted approval

The water temple was fun. Not a big fan of the floating jumps, though. Now, I need to upgrade my clothes.

using ultrahand to lift a small rock and then drop it and then reverse to suspend it in the air and then ascend to get on top of it all because you didnt want to leave the cave and make a climbing potion ftw. i love how the stamina wheel is completely optional in this one

Yeah it seems like it's explicitly written to have nothing to do with the whole Zelda timeline thing at all and have a bunch of weird details everywhere and I'm glad because it's much more interesting for it

I think I broke one of the dungeons because there was a clear mechanic I was supposed to do and instead I rocketed or rewind lifted up to get everywhere.
