One thing about Tears that has been a bit disappointing is the shrines seem an order of magnitude easier than BotW with one or two notable exceptions, but maybe that's just experience and being more savvy with what the game is looking for. Plus, that's really the only downgrade so it's a pretty acceptable trade imo.

That is true, I can think of 3 or 4 (especially Forward Force which was like the first or second one I encountered on landing in Hyrule) where I immediately said "That's definitely not how I was supposed to do that. Oh well."

Because you have so many tools in TotK, it's easier to approach a shrine "the wrong way" as compared to BotW. To counteract this, they almost all follow a formula that, once you realize what it is, makes them all trivial. There's less discovery because the developers outright tell you how they intended for you to solve the shrine, though you can of course do it other ways. At the beginning of each shrine you do some minor mechanic exactly once to progress. It's the only way to get past the first checkpoint. To solve the rest of the shrine, just do that again. While technically the mechanics of each shrine is different, they've all felt pretty samey in terms of how I engage with them. It's kinda like the Scribblenauts problem. You can write almost any noun you can think of and that object will appear and behave as you'd expect it to. It's a technological marvel (especially as a DS game). And then you end up solving almost every puzzle with Black Hole.

I think that's just basic game design op, introducing a concept and iterating on it vs randomly throwing stuff into a sequence. Modern Mario games definitely follow this philosophy very closely Well not the black hole part but that should probably be in more games KingSlime fucked around with this message at 18:08 on Jun 8, 2023 |

TotK shrine puzzles feel more like they exist to give you more ideas of how to use your powers & zonai devices, then to exist as pure challenges. In some cases you'll come out of a shrine and there's something you can apply that knowledge to right away.

The shrines are there to teach you how to interact with the world. Same with the backpack koroks, there's always parts nearby to build with and it teaches you different ways to use objects. If you're more creative this stuff seems rote but there's lots of uncreative people who would see four wheels and plank and not think to make a cart.

I feel like there's a few koroks Ive found nothing nearby for. But sometimes those Koroks are at the top of a hill, and the destination is at the bottom of the hill....

Hello friends, has anyone played A Space for the Unbound (on Switch or otherwise)? I'm a couple of hours away from pulling the trigger on it, but was curious to hear thoughts!

Is there a 7th full heart somewhere? I read online that you can max stam and get 38 hearts. By my math: 152 shrines: 38 upgrades. You start with 3 hearts and get 6 along the way. So that is 9. Meaning you need 29 more uprgrades to get to 38. But stam requires 10 which leaves one. I couldn't find an answer on google.

I'm trying to be more selective with my game purchases for the next little while. I may grab Decarnation instead, it's been a while since I've played a new full-on horror game.

CainFortea posted:I just tried that for 2 shrines i'm looking for and not even a blip. Well, sometimes the shrine is hidden behind a quest, and sometimes the cave entrance is quite a distance from the shrine itself, like the big minecart rollercoaster. It just happened to cover all the shrines I hadn't found in my original exploration.

Speaking of extra hearts, anyone else think you should have got one for restoring the fishing village? That would have fit with some of the previous Zeldas.

I found a stone gate north of the Temple, at wall near the roads below, and blew up the rocks to drain a pool, but no luck beyond that. What's the solution? That is the solution, you just need to find what was at the bottom of the pool you drained.

It doesn’t mentioned gyro on the site but I checked the companies Twitter and when asked about it, they did say that it had built in gyro. I’ve been on a quest to find a decent set of joycons since I bought the original Switch and even though I have purchased an embarrassing amount of third party ones, so far none of them have felt right. The best I’ve found are the mobapad or my dpad modded original joycons with a satisfye grip.

I mean, if you're curious about the intended solution, you may have noticed the bars are metal. There's an electric current to the right and you only need two pieces to reach the other terminal, which activates a moving platform to ultrahand the ball off the top.
