Here we go again   We'll see how this goes, I did an immediate replay through half or two-thirds of the game, but a lot of that was powering through much more efficiently after my first time through. It's been long enough now that I'll hopefully have forgotten a lot of the details, and go for a more relaxed pace.

I don't remember from last time I beat it: is there any gameplay reason to do the finale first then reload the game for dicking around, like a reward or fast-travel point or something, rather than just arsing about and doing the finale Later(tm)?

You can more easily track completion through map % and the game telling you the total amount of unfinished sidequests and so forth.

Were the "search for recipe"/"grab all ingredients" cooking material menu options there from the start, or were they patched in at some point? I don't remember them at all, but I very well could've just ignored them hard enough that they dropped right out of my memory.

I don't remember them at all, but I very well could've just ignored them hard enough that they dropped right out of my memory. I recall them being in there from the start. But in fairness, I only found them when I navigated into the recipe book. They should've made that thing more accessible. They also should've allowed players to queue dishes, or cook multiples at once. I'd sit through the animation 5 times if it meant I didn't have to go select the same ingredients 5 times. Hell, just a prompt like "press X to cook another" or something would've been fine.

Yeah, that makes sense. I wasn't sure if it was just me being forgetful or if they did like in Animal Crossing and added in some obvious QOL upgrades eventually.

Lol I guess it wouldn't really change much, but I do wish the alert that your aircraft was about to disintegrate was a bit more obvious. I usually catch it, but I occasionally miss it when I'm all tunnel visioned focusing on in something else.

Trying to find that lost god drat shrine. I have all 32 sky islands and I've found every lightroot and I still can't pinpoint it. They say the shrine icons are a different color if you haven't completed it, but nothing. This is going to drive me crazy.

I had to spend like 10 minutes flipping between the overworld and depths maps to spot the last drat shrine. Hard to offer any concrete advice since it could be literally any of them.

I don't think they need anything else in the overworld. Just come up with a few quests that utilize the already uniquely crafted and memorable landscape. Bridges, castles, large settlement ruins,etc. Like even just something like a quest that brings a malon looking person to the ranch ruins and you get dialogue about its history then becomes a cheap place to get all farm food and recipes. Doesn't have to be a good reward, just a memorable experience. Ultimately turning off the depawn timers for your creations would be ideal Like getting infinite wings without having to ride without the super strict sequence of events you need to do to glitch tr game into giving you one

It was the friggin shrine right next to Lurelin village. I had to put my eyeballs like right up to the screen to tell that it was yellow in the middle. It was hard to tell because there's other yellow icons on the map next to it.

Also I can see why I didn't complete it. I just died with full hearts on this stupid shrine. It's the one where you have flowing moats with platforms and constructs on the platforms and on islands in the middle shooting shock arrows at your naked body. I think I found this early in the game and said gently caress this,

I think I found this early in the game and said gently caress this, protip for that shrine: The boats are able to be ultrahanded. IIRC all I did was ultrahand the boats into the water enough to drown the constructs, then went swimming for all the bows, arrows, and shockfruit they dropped. It was a bit slow, but also pretty fun.

Houle posted:The sky islands give me the wind waker vibe of saying look at all this space to travel and the space is just an open nothingness. The depths are worse for this. You can see where all the sky island clusters are by filling the surface map. And you know that each cluster has at least one noteworthy thing. The depths are such a boring slog that I ended up taking the advice from this thread (I think?) and using a hoverbike to float from lightroot to lightroot just to "clear" the whole thing.

yeah i'm still trying to avoid hoverbiking the surface and most of the sky* but as far as the depths go i'm pretty quick to go Oh gently caress This and hoverbike it. it's a shame really * some of those islands are so gd high or far-flung I just gave up building anything else lol

speaking of hoverbike, a small thing that has been bugging me for a bit: is there a way to build one without a stake that I then have to take off when I autobuild a new bike? only way i can think of is taking off the stake then attaching something else to the bike to get it in the autobuild history, but attaching something else goes against the point of not wanting the stake in the first place; and detaching/re-attaching a fan without the stake is fiddly as hell because of the angles

Just build one from scratch without using a stake

I did it again, I ran into two archery combat training shrines in a row a ways into the game. One on a random sky island, and the next while I was running around tracking down a memory. All of this right after beating the Sky Temple, of course. It just seems silly how the training shrines are so randomly placed, so you're all but guaranteed to have done what they're teaching you a million times already. I just want there to be an "oh, you just beat a boss centered around this very mechanic twenty minutes ago? pass on through" option.

There was a good short youtube hoverbike tutorial posted in here way back when that I ultimately followed, it took a couple tries but I finally made a balanced one. I haven't been able to dig it up with search, though.

I guess by balloon but even that seems like a pain. Once I got up there I put the travel medallion on it to get back to it (it makes a fun jumping off point)

Honestly, it did take me a few tries to get a hoverbike that flew straight and sometimes, depending on the terrain it launches from, it'll still drift

I wish they added a QR code setup for sharing creations like they have for Animal Crossing, that'd make getting stuff like a functional hoverbike easier. Not to mention giant mechs and stuff I'll never build myself. I guess Nintendo probably feels like that'd go against things like  creativity and imagination

Why didn't she just have Rauru murder Ganondorf before he stole a Sage's stone and became unbeatable? There's really no excuse. Era after era of suffering because she was like "Huh, this Ganondorf guy seems suspicious." "Yes, Princess, I sense treachery as well. But, I'm not going to do anything about it for a while."
