I'd rather it not be in a shrine so that I can take out zonai parts as needed; smuggling panels out of shrines is effort and if I just construct them from air disassembling efficiently will be a hassle. A bunch of the stuff the Yiga use to build is in the chasm at their hideout, there's probably some spike walls there though they'll likely be the gnarly kind

Lot of people praising the technical aspects of the game and one part I oddly find impressive is that you can land on the dragons and walk around on them and there isn't any Gmod style jittery jank physics as you do so.

If you used the tried-and-true method of throwing their rock hand back at them with the time power, you can hit them with ice or water and then stand on top of them no problem. If you do it the other way around, the hand will just reignite their body. PageMaster posted:I don't know if it's tied to progression or random, but all the Talos's in my game now have their crystal weak spot on their side, not on top, so you can't hit it while on top of them, and you can't hit it from the ground, and there's no flat part to stage on to hit it. Are you just supposed to shoot it now? Do you mean when it's jutting out straight horizontally from their back? You don't have to stand on them anymore, it's actually way easier to hit. When they're stunned, stand behind them with a spear that has a high-damage blunt/hammer monster part attached to it and you can spam-attack it from the ground.

One of the things that made me laugh about 2010’s games was when they started implementing reverse kinematics so that feet would look like they were firmly planted on irregular terrain, but it would send the rest of the leg into breakdance mode to accommodate the fixed foot and torso I think the dragon engine Yakuza games had this feature

Collision - particularly moving collision - is a bigger pain than a lot of people probably know or think so yeah, the fact you can ride the dragons so well is drat impressive.

Well worth it to ride those dragons too. Those little nodules that grow along their spine are good materials in addition to the single horn or talon you can harvest.

Seriously I assume he’s saying “I can do it” but it’s wild that it sounds exactly like “Why’d you do it” which is incredibly strange every time. How did that particular take ever get chosen? Very glad the spirits of the sages don’t speak.

Is there any reason to upgrade your stamina beyond the second bar? I’m at 3/4 temples and I’m planning on dumping the rest of my light blessings into heart containers. It seems like having stamina elixirs and food gets me as far as I need.

In BotW I maxed out hearts, this time around I maxed out stamina just for a change. I have enough armor (44 for now) that I honestly don’t miss the few more hearts I could have gotten, and the extra stamina is good for long glides to reach faraway sky islands—but of course you can just replace that with good vehicle use. I thought it would be useful for sustaining heavy spin attacks on bosses during their vulnerable windows but they just get up before I run out of stamina.

Unless you're wanting to avoid the grind for armor upgrades, I'd still extremely recommend maxing stamina just for gliding and climbing reasons. At 88 armor basically nothing hits me for more than a quarter heart, I'm sure I could downgrade a bunch for other bonuses and still comfortably sleepwalk through most fights. (edit ok except for this silver lynel i literally just ran into who hit me for three hearts each time) I was actually super surprised and disappointed when it told me I had maxed out stamina, I wanted another wheel

Wait so what is the intended path to get to the Master Sword. Because I just Randomly stumbled on Ms. Light Dragon flying around a sky island and quickly Zonai'd over to her, only to go "holy poo poo what's that in your forehead". I thought this was supposed to have something to do with a forest??

You're supposed to do all the memories, which tell you what the deal is with the dragon and the master sword, and possibly at the same time the Lost Woods stuff. Completing the memories makes the light dragon show up in Akkala once low enough to easily jump on from a sky island and grab the sword, clearing the Lost Woods makes the light dragon fly lower permanently and I think gives you a quest tracker icon for the sword. It also has some exposition about the sword that I immediately forgot after closing the dialogue box.

You can either visit the Korok Forest or follow the geoglyph quest, both will ultimately point you at the Light Dragon, though only the latter will explain how the Master Sword got there.

you just need to start a new game, save in the prologue, load your normal save file, throw a rock-smashing weapon across space and time to your pre-ganon link, have him break the rubble obscuring the rest of the ruins to read the entire prophesy about the master sword, then ignore the information it gave you and instead have him throw his unbroken mastersword to the future save file

This game is good but it's honestly too much. I'm not getting bored but I'm also kind of like...getting sick of it? I dunno. Don't really know how to articulate that. I definitely like BOTW more at this point.

Yeah, I think I would like them to do a smaller world next time. There's too many of everything. Despite that, I've clocked in 160 hours since the game came out, so I obviously like it A LOT. And despite THAT, I don't think I will play more of it after finishing it yesterday. The combat system in particular I find to be one of the weaker aspects of the game where you fight so much. The UI and controls would be very close second. I am imagining if this was a PC game first, you'd have a separate key for so many things it'd be like playing a flight simulator. Tears of the Kingdom and Elden Ring are the only two open world games that I could stomach playing for more than 30-50 hours (and honestly 50 in something like Assassin's Creed feels like infinity) but in the end I felt like re-playing Elden Ring but I don't think I'd want to replay Tears of the Kingdom, and this is solely because of how many different builds you can try in ER. I guess people would scream bloody murder if I said I wanted the next Zelda to be more like ER but here I am saying it anyway (the Depths are both Siofra Lite and Siofra Max at the same time).

Solving the Korok Forest will give you a quest marker that points to where the Light Dragon is, and also apparently reduces the Light Dragon's flight height to be easier to reach. If you haven't already completed the Master Sword quest on your own, if you follow the main quests, you'll eventually be asked to find it, although I haven't explored how exactly it points you toward it since I've always grabbed it early.

Every now and then I get Fromsoft vibes. Like, pranking the player Like the goon who said he parachuted down a chasm and at the bottom you land on a Frox’s head Or the korok escort mission that’s on a steep and jagged mountain side that funnels into a chasm if you gently caress up Or while I’m sledgehammering away at ore deposits and one of them has a bombfruit next to it Good one, Nintendo developers.

About the thing being talked behind the spoiler bars, it should be mentioned you get the leads to the Master Sword via MSQ after the final dungeon, so that's when devs think you should go there, which lol given you can do Memories even before Lookout.

I'm pretty sure it's just Mineru pointing you towards the light dragon, since she gives you a memory about Zelda talkin about eating the forbidden cough drop, and you get and automatically complete a quest called "Trail of the Master Sword" or something. Possibly she sends you to the Great Deku Tree to get his quest marker, if you somehow haven't been.
