Dexie posted:Can you explain more on how to do the second one? If you press X to jump while pressing left or right while locked on, you'll jump to the side and dodge. If you do this at the last second before you get hit, time will slow down (matrix bullet time) and you get a prompt saying you can mash Y to do chain attacks real fast. Its super obvious that you've done it if you time it right. If you get hit, too slow, if you just dodge to the side, too early. (But early is safer than late!)

I love that this game lets you do what you want. I just activated a Shieka tower I really don't think I was supposed to do yet. It was surrounded by guardians and I just rode a horse past them, jumped off, and managed to climb the whole thing dodging like 4 lasers.RCarr posted:

Harrow posted:For people who have been playing a while: how many runes are there for the Sheikah Slate? Is it just Magnesis, Stasis, Cryonis, and the bombs, or are there more later on? I was wondering the same thing. If you check your shiekah slate though, and look at the runes... there's a blank space for another one to go there. And previously its not like there were exactly that many spaces, it adds spaces as you get more. So I think the implication is that there's a few more I really hope so.That said, its definitely not one new rune for EVERY shrine, I've done a few that just use a combination of those runes.

s.i.r.e. posted:So what do the other amiibo do? The 8-Bit Link gets you the Classic Link hat. Each zelda amiibo gives you some random goodies (different ones, foods and crafting materials, but nothing too crazy) and a chest. The chest contains stuff based on the amiibo; links usually give swords, bow link gives a bow, zelda gives crafting materials, etc. You can use them once per day I think. I may have to buy one. And apparently the rewards are kinda random, so check again tomorrow and you might get the classic link tunic? Or classic link shield? The really unique one is wolf link, which lets you summon wolf link into breath of the wild as an animal companion to attack your enemies with you. E: Non-zelda amiibo work too, but only give you the common goodies; no chest. Zaphod42 fucked around with this message at 00:58 on Mar 4, 2017 |

Korok seeds let you expand your inventory!!!! Thank you blessed jesus s.i.r.e. posted:How the hell do you cook? Its kinda intuitive. You need a pot over a fire, if you find a pot with no fire light a stick and bring it over, then swipe at the pot to put it on fire. Then go into your inventory, find something, and press "hold". Then you can select other things as well, you don't have to select "hold" anymore since you're already selecting things to hold. Then leave your inventory, and now you have a "cook" prompt at the pot to cook whatever you're holding. This way you can combine things into complex dishes.

OH MY GOD THIS GAME So I decided to ignore the main quest a bit and strike out on my own exploring just to see what I happened into. Found some really cool poo poo, this lead to that, ended up going to a high level zone way off the beaten path. This place is so cold that the spicy food or warm clothes alone won't do it; you need to stack both. I end up fighting a river spirit dragon boss (very much like Haku from spirited away) which has been corrupted. This requires me to shoot several corrupted spots along the dragon's back which have giant evil eyes on them, but the trick is each time you shoot one, the dragon moves. CONSIDERABLY MOVES. Like, ACROSS THE ENTIRE ZONE. So you're chasing after this dragon from mountaintop to mountaintop using the paraglider and using these air streams to shoot you to and fro, and each time you have to stop and snipe another spot and then move to the next. SOMEHOW, even though I'm freezing the whole time and I'm out of spicy food so now I'm just eating food constantly to survive the cold damage, and I'm running out of arrows, and yet somehow I manage to pull the thing off. I have 2 arrows left. Then I am told to shoot the purified dragon to return its spirit to the river. I fire. I have one arrow left. I did it. I completed this thing. Holy poo poo. My reward is.... a shrine. Really? After all that hard work? A shrine? I mean, shrines are cool and all, I need them, but man, that's a lot of work for not a whole lot of payout. I felt kinda disappointed. But hey, let me go ahead and do this shrine, some puzzles will be a fun change of pace... "By entering this place, you have already proven yourself worthy." Immediately I'm already at the shrine's ending. The only thing there is a treasure chest. No puzzles, because I already beat a loving dragon. I love this game.

knob posted:So stuff like opals and amber. Okay to sell or keep them? I'm super loving broke but really paranoid about selling some rare drop that I might need for a quest diamonds are definitely not safe to sell. I'm not sure about opals and amber, I *think* they're okay? I'm mostly selling monster parts since you can always farm tons of those. As long as you fight most people you run into, you should have a lot of basic monster parts and probably won't bother cooking them all into alchemy. Sell a big stack of parts and you make a few hundred rupees easy.

Locke Dunnegan posted:How early do you get to repair weapons? I'm running around with four weapons nearly broken and the next best are the lovely ~4 damage starting ones lying around. Just got through Kakariko so I'm not too far in. Do I use any of the mining material to repair them or something? Having durability in a game that came out in 2017 is really weird and it's stressing me out. You're very much meant to just toss weapons and find more as you go. If you run out, use some arrows or some bombs or something creative (magnetism) to kill people, then take whatever weapons they have. I hope there is weapon repairing, but if there is you're not gonna get it anytime soon. I don't think anybody in thread has it yet.

MinibarMatchman posted:played this on wiiu gamepad since 7, I love it. feels like Journey mixed with Shadow of the Colossus. Being able to climb anything everywhere is beyond brilliant. Only just got the parachute thingy and set off looking for a village but I do love how nice the game looks and feels. Everyone screaming about unplayable sub-20 FPS is confirmed lying pissbitch because I hardly see anything gamebreaking. It definitely lags like CRAZY in some of the villages, but it never really bothers me. The game is so pretty anyways, and its not like you need split-second FPS reactions in this game, so its really not at all bothersome. I'm sure switch would be nice though, and I'll get one eventually.

BAILOUT MCQUACK! posted:Can you sell weapons? I don't think I have come across a merchant that will yet. Better question, should I be making sure I sell stuff instead of just dropping it? No, you cannot sell weapons or armor. Armor is permanent and you only get one of each, weapons and bows and shields are temporary but cannot be sold. Only crafting materials and such goods can be sold. Drop any weapons you aren't gonna use.

It takes all the great bits from Skyrim, Far Cry 3 onwards, Phantom Pain, and SO MANY MORE and improves upon them while cutting out all the bullshit. Add Assassin's Creed, Dark Souls, Journey and even Portal to the list of things this game apes and does magnificently all together at the same time. Its straight bonkers. And it does it all while looking like Ni No Kuni but better.

Despera posted:I think stealing the portal colors for the portal rooms was a little much . Though if theres anyone out there who deserves to steal gaming ideas its nintendo To be fair, blue and orange are the most popular colors in use today period. Almost every Hollywood film is filtered to be some degree of blue and orange in like half its shots, because they have strong contrast and look way more pleasing than other strongly contrasting colors, and orange matches human skin and blue matches sky, so its a really common pairing of colors. Lots of multiplayer games have even taken to making the teams Blue vs Orange instead of the classic capture the flag colors of Red vs Blue.

My complaints so far: I can't remap the buttons (X to jump? seriously? Yes, I know you can swap it with run, but then X to run isn't any good either) and it suck that weapons break so fast, especially for unique weapons like the leaf or the boomerang. Otherwise: This is the best zelda game ever and maybe the best game ever.

I will NEVER get tired of jumping off my horse to land a sword hit right on somebody's noggin in a stylish flip, nor jumping off my horse in matrix slow motion bullet time to snipe 3 moblins' heads before I even land on the ground. That's another reason to expand your stamina too; more stamina = more bullet time.

DreamShipWrecked posted:Are Opals and other stones safe to sell or should I be saving them for something else? They can be used in crafting to add water element to weapons I'm not sure but I feel like opals and amber aren't unique drops so it may be safe to sell them if you're hard up for cash. But I'm not positive. People have said though at the very least diamonds are unique drops, there's only so many in the game world, and they have a purpose other than money (not sure myself what it is, maybe upgrading gear) so they're worth saving it seems.

Zore posted:They're all infinitely available though even if diamonds are stupid rare (I had one pop out of a mining site so they def aren't unique) This is possible, but its also possible that was just a uniquely placed diamond from a mining site. The game could well save that you collected that diamond. The only way to know for sure would be to get another diamond from that same site at a later point in time. After all the game does save which kokoroks you've saved and stuff like that. And heck, it even remembers which monsters are dead and doesn't respawn them until a blood moon. It saves all kinds of overworld data.

Zore posted:I had to reload that save because it bugged out and didn't let me pick up a minibosses' drops after I killed it. When I mined it again I only got flint and topaz so I'm pretty sure its just a rare drop Even if that's true, it could still have a counter of how many diamonds you've mined randomly and stop giving them after awhile. Its very hard for us to know how the game works from just these couple clues. But that does make it seem more likely if true. And I'd love to hear that nothing is actually unique so I don't have to stress so much about hoarding things.

Bogart posted:Oh sweet bippity. How the hell do you beat Guardians? I can cut all their arms off, but it'll still pop me from full health to nothing with one laser shot. Is it just 'hide behind trees and throw bombs?' DON'T. Seriously, don't. You're not really equipped to beat Guardians until later in the game. They're stupidly difficult early on, until you get proper equipment which can wreck them, like ancient arrows. Also anything that kills you in one shot means "you're not ready for this". Any enemy that the game really expects you to beat should only hit you for a few of your hearts. This means your current armor is insufficient to fight this enemy. You CAN try to do it, which is awesome, but its not really something a new player should be worried about pulling off.
