If I'm not going to be crafting and upgrading the circlets and earrings from Gerudo town there's no reason to keep any of the gems (outside of random side quests) right?

i hadn't gotten to the goron one when i wrote that, but it was ok. mostly because you can use magnesis objects to easily knock down the drones. i liked the short gerudo stealth segment because there's a few ways to approach it.

I was confused about what people were talking about with a goron stealth section because for that area, like you said it was all magnesis, stasis, and cannon shots while leading around a huge, completely unstealthy goron.

Stumbled into the final boss room while exploring Hyrule Castle and that was a satisfying fight. Holy gently caress is this game huge though, I thought I had done a decent chunk of the game but completion is at 20.09% :stare:

So, about completion percentage: it counts korok seeds. All 900 of them. That's probably why it's so low.

Well that explains everything was wondering why it's so low, done over half of the side quests, more than half of the armor upgraded to level 3 and about 70 shrines done

I have more shock arrows than any other type cause you can just harvest a bunch from that place with the lynel every blood moon

Just saw a guide today on how to get unlimited regular arrows and apparently the cap is 999.

I'm about 70 hours in and I suddenly realized that this is the very first open world game I've ever played where I haven't run into any glitches or bugs, which is actually an amazing feat.

I had one bug that I was able to repeat a couple of times that would cause the system to hang for several seconds.

When fighting a group of moblins in some ruins during a rain storm, if their corpse would rag doll onto a slick surface, everything would lockup.

yeah this, ive had like one crash aand a handful of hitches in 80+ hours of gametime, thats super freakin stable

I've never had an outright crash luckily.

My only gripe about the game is the Divine Beasts; they felt short compared to dungeons/temples in previous games, like glorified shrines that became more monotonous than challenging once you figured out the positioning gimmick of the beast.

More content like Hyrule Castle would be welcomed.

Edit: Ok two gripes, the voice acting.

Mipha is bad, her delivery is just flat out reading, with no emotion. Daruk is great, Sidon is ok, but man does Yunobo (the young Goron) suck. "Oh Geez oh man, MONSTERSSSSS AHHH"

Now what is it? Skyward Sword? I only say that as it's the only main line (console) entry that I haven't beaten. I played it for all of 4 hours and stopped.

i finally pulled the trigger and beat this. i spent way more time than i thought it was gonna take because i wasnt expecting hyrule castle to be so huge. godly game

yeah the castle is just the best dungeon in the game. last fight is satisfying and taught me that a necessary component of the fight is applicable to guardians out in the wild and one shots the turret ones, haven't tried on the walkers.

poo poo, I just walked right in through the front gate and walked right up to the final boss. I had a bow that fired five arrows in one shot, and I bought like 20 ancient arrows. It was still loving cool tearing down all those Guardians

See I was exploring the castle and looking for weapons to loot, wondered into a giant room and a cut scene started playing for the fight.

itd be funny if one of the korok seeds was bugged and someone was stuck at 99.9%

That's pretty drat accurate actually. It'd end up being 99.92%. All 900 seeds account for 72% of the completion

in "woah that actually worked" moments: in some shrine or something i walked through a door to find myself staring at four guardian babies. they were all standing in some shallow water so i whipped out my lightning rod and zapped them all to death with one shot. extremely satisfying

I did the same thing with the same reaction, it's great that a game is consistent with it's logic for once.

What do you get in return for playing on hard mode, just a sense of accomplishment or is there some actual better/different items added?

Edit: When Nintendo says that completing the Trial of The Sword will unlock the full power of the Master Sword, I know they mean it will always be at the full 60 damage and glowing, but will it also never deplete?
