Skyward Sword did at least have something resembling proper Zelda dungeons (which Fi constantly gave away the solutions to).

Skyward Swords dungeons were really good imo, even with Fi. The puzzles were solid and the environments/vibes were great.

I finished the four temples and then followed the quests for the fifth sage and now I have loving dumb robot following me around and I have to go on an adventure with it in the Depths to find the next temple. This thing moves slow to ride and attacks slow for next to no damage. Does this get better? When can I turn it off and never use it again?

You can turn it off just like any of the other sages- go to your special items menu and click on it's gem icon. No it doesn't get better. It's good for walking across lava and gloom though.

I was disappointed with that too and basically just ran ahead to do whatever the quest wanted while it caught up on its own time. Never ended up using it for much of anything, I guess it's good for lava traversal if you need that.

It's also useful for mining and breaking things open, since its durability-free unfused hands can shatter about anything. For harder rock you can attach crushing stuff to it like horriblin horns, cannons, or whatever stuff you happen across as you go. It's utility focused, not a big damage dealer but I found that utility useful enough that I never turned it off.

Yeah it’s probably the worst companion, which sounds impossible when you hear the sales patch for a rideable weapons platform mech. My son enjoys riding it off sky islands and then jumping off, watching it plummet 50,000 feet into someone’s back yard from the safety of his paraglider

Jumping off it triggers bullettime so being a walking sentient cliff edge already puts it ahead of most of the sages aside from birb

Definitely better in theory than in execution. Maybe if weapon durability was turned off for whatever you attach, you only lose the item if you swap it for something new? Idk

I also enjoyed attached a shock and ice emitter to its hands. It gave the thing some combat utility, in that it would randomly stun an enemy or two every once in a while.

Finally beat the game after starting in May. Overall had a great time but probably wasn’t as novel as BOTW. Final boss was super fun and way harder than I thought it’d be. Had a question though: in the post credits cutscene, what’s with the weird pause the sages give when reciting their vow to Zelda? Is it something that doesn’t translate from Japanese?

Nissin Cup Nudist posted:What's the respawn rate on items from the flying dragons 10 minutes real time. If you're farming specific parts, it'll probably be best to set up on the dragon's back, get the bit you need, then go do something else for 9 minutes. Just make sure that you also pay attention to when the dragons switch between the surface and the depths, or you'll likely fall off. Alternatively, if you're farming all of them, find a map of their routes, then keep traveling between them to help work down those timers.

A new 2D Zelda clone just dropped, Saga of the Moon Priestess. I haven't played much, but it's going for the GBC aesthetic pretty much to a fault, which I love:   It's already pretty cheap from the start, but under $5 with the launch discount. I've played a ways into the tutorial dungeon and it seems fun so far. My main complaint is that your starter weapon feels very Zelda 1-esque, in that it stabs straight forward rather than swinging to hit enemies that are further off to your side. That's a bit aggravating, and the movement feels a bit slow, but I'm still looking forward to playing more.

Because the way to reduce the odds of the rocks just despawning is to collect them into the big statue guy one at a time

Alternatively, if you're farming all of them, find a map of their routes, then keep traveling between them to help work down those timers. The spines on the backs of the dragons are climbable. As a result, you're almost certain not to fall off if you're hanging there when they visit/leave the depths. I basically rode each of the dragons for a full circuit while doing other things to get their entire trace on my Hero's path. Didn't even have full unshockability when doing it with Naydra, just unequipped all my metal items , and didn't get hit by any of the sparks while hanging out near the head.

Yeah that quest kinda blows. And it sticks out like a sore thumb in a game that is generally so polished.

I started that quest as soon as I got to the Great Plateau and didn’t bother to go back to finish it until I was like 100hrs in and trying to wrap up all the big quests lol

The quest updates when you throw an eye down. Logically this should mean it's keeping track of it. That's why I threw em all down first. That and it's a pain to navigate the Plateau from the shrines they give you this time.

I have no idea what you guys are talking about, but now I want to try it. What quest?  (I'm 175 hours in the game, so I can probably unlock it.)

I can't believe I made it 100 hours into the game before realizing that the UI compass map changes to reflect whatever map you last looked at on the Purah Pad. This makes exploring the depths considerably less of a slog because it's a little easier to see what isn't scalable or if there's an easier passage since the depths mirror the surface. You of course have to have the surface map unlocked too.
