i feel ike weapon degradation could be cool if you're just scavenging sticks and stuff but we're obviously going to get the unbreakable master sword like halfway through rendering the mechanic irrelevant forever so uhh

i hope the game';s challenging enough to really encourage experimenting with the systems and stuff. i can imagine just walking into goblin outposts or whatever and just stabbing everything because it's insanely easy

im gonna head straight to him and see what happens. if he's actually beatable as opposed to just immortal until you get the triforce or whatever, i can imagine people being able to kill him within ten minutes of starting within a couple of days lol. it's cool that the option is there though

I’ve calmed down a bit about the DLC. I hope the hard mode is a big deal though, like new enemies and puzzles, otherwise I’ll get angry about that part again.

I had a dream last night that I was walking through a car park talking to a friend about how good BotW was going to be, then I realised the friend was BBG and he started roasting me for not having finished Zelda 2

it's fine, a little less vibrant and lower resolution but frame rate only dips a bit and only when you're fighting in a thunderstorm or something like that

What the gently caress dude.
my friend pirated it and I succumbed to temptation to see how the Wii U version is. I don't want to disrepect Nintendo but I didn't want to buy a busted game... I'm satisfied and will wait for release day like the noble gamer I am.

Its kinda funny watching the GB video for this and its Dan breathlessly gushing about the game while he climbs a tower to reveal icons on a map.
the towers gave me a ubisoft-induced freakout but they don't reveal icons thankfully, I think they just reveal the overall map of the area? And they seem to unlock apps for the Sheikah iPad? I might be totally wrong though lol

It's neat that the towers are just tall spots, it looks like you build out the map notes yourself like a Erian odyssey game
it's really cool. The towers are vantage points and you just use them to zoom in on things and place markers

I still haven't seen a horse, where did you get it?

I saw some moblins chasing a boar so I soared over them and killed them in one mighty falling attack but then I turned around in the hope that the boar would be my grateful friend and saw a pile of boar meat behind me so I guess the shockwave was larger than expected.

Yeah that's the one. It's cool that with patience and skill you could just keep going, but I got tired of getting killed so I'm moving on.

Going all the way to the top is only worth it for bragging rights tbh, most of the good gear and money can be found lower down

Also then I parachuted into the castle town and it's way more dangerous than the castle lol
