Yeah, Naked Link is a pretty hard mode to run with. He takes an extra half-heart of damage even from most of these lovely Bokoblin weapons, which is kind of a bad thing when you've got exactly three hearts.

Good old closed-box cooking, though. That's a Hylian classic.

I like the idea of Link the tourist. All visiting strange lands, donning their exotic garb with little concern for its intended purpose, and never color-coordinating anything.

Because even before we left the plateau, we found, what, three weapons that could one-shot Naked Three Hearts Link?

But for a general direction? Well, facing down Ganon knowing jack dick about his real power didn't work out too well last time, it would seem. I think we need to at least get our memory back. ...somehow.

Do Bokoblins deal more damage based on what kind of weapon they're holding when they get tossed at you, or is it more of a fixed value based perhaps on skull impact?

My jaw was just hanging open throughout that whole dragon experience. I had heard a lot about the game, and watched several hours of it on streams closer to release, but I had never heard anything about that scene. Absolutely amazing.

Yeah, I like how they kept a lid on the dragons through marketing.

It makes them seem like they're... not supposed to be there? If that makes sense?

I like how the drunken traveler just tells you how he failed to get to any of those places.

One of those pictures does look kind of obviously desert-y, though, with the oasis town and the palm trees. See if you can get there, and if you can, go whichever direction your shadow is pointing when you get there.

It was a neat idea to make the various Zoras have different fish-shaped heads. Muzu's a manta ray, Sidon's a hammerhead shark, the king of course is a great white. They do a good job integrating the various fishes to make that particular zora's facial expression have certain tone to it. Muzu looks droopy and sad while Sidon looks aggressive and heroic.

It's a neat idea but it also makes a lot of sense? The human-readable parts of most of your aquarium all-stars are basically just a face and a haircut.

I like that they put in a guy to tutorialize the diving and waterfall climbing and the excuse they gave him is that he's basically trying to cook off all the adrenaline after he dove off a tower into the river.

...I wonder if there's a place on the tower you'd be able to do that from, or if you'd need to have a little Zora air control.
