After the BotW letsplays it kinda feels like coming home when rupees just are hidden in the grass again, where they belong.

Yeah, seconded. I dig this rather unique idea where the player knows the game well but the guide is new to it. It seems to work well.

Please tell Mel how easy it is to cheat at the Lost Woods even without sound. You can see which doorways are "real" because the fake ones have a short of whitish background while the real ones are pure black. Also the real ones show what's behind before you actually walk through them, but the white/black thing is incredibly obvious once you know about it.

I always found the easiest way to fight the Lizalfos is to just stay on the starting platform, keep your sword and shield ready, wait for them to come, and attack when you can, shield when you need. You won't get hit at all that way.

A little thing that's useful to know is that Lizalfos are programmed such that if one jumps away, the other one will come straight for you after a couple of seconds. If you start jumping from platform to platform you'll lose track of them and may get surprise attacked from behind, but if you just wait for them to come for you, you can end the battle in a couple hits.

Also, I'm sad you didn't use the Hylian Shield against King Dodongo's rolling attack. The TING TING TING TING when every one of his hits just bounces off your shield is great. Trivializes the fight even more.

Yeah it's fun. On one hand we get to see the game through new eyes, on the other hand, because you got the wheel and know the game, there isn't hours of stumbling around getting nowhere.
