it found a way to make dragons boring

But that forced people to mod replace them with Thomas the tank engine and wrestlers, making them cool again. No other game could have done that

I mean personally my headcanon is that webcomic where ganondorf decides to shortcircut the entire process and do a political marriage with Zelda in the process adopting the next Link with realizing it.

Got through the Fire Temple last night. Really feel good about saving the Gorons from the crack epidemic and wish it were that easy in real life. Also not a big fan of my new Goron buddy. I'm pretty sure he's saying "I can do it!" but it really, really feels like he's yelling "why'd you do it??" very accusingly at me. (Actually, the Rito buddy kinda sucks too, made me feel like I'm guest-starring in an episode of DuckTales, but at least he's mostly shut up now that he's in ghost form.)

How do I go about getting the Master Sword? I haven't wanted to google it in case of spoilers, but I haven't even gotten a breadcrumb or anything yet, and I'm 2 temples in and explored quite a bit of the map now. I forget how it worked in BotW, but I thought I'd been pointed there by now but had been put off by the heart requirement.

e: gently caress I gotta go find the korok forest, don't i?

I really enjoy how the different people's problems are climate disaster, climate disaster, pollution, and the CIA impersonating Zelda.

Also this may have been mentioned before but my biggest laugh in this game was revealing the heroic statue in the middle of the Zora city for the first time. Gee Sidon, you uh, sure you're marrying the right person there buddy?

Are you referring to the shrine where you have to descend from a sky island into a rad snowboarding sequence? Because, funny story for that one, I didn't bother whipping out my paraglider, just enjoying how insanely cool the whole thing was, and it turns out shield surfing doesn't protect you from fall damage. Wound up being rad as hell though because I had a fairy on-hand to protect me from gravity's harsh treatment.

Did you see how Yona talks to Link? Big "looking for a third" energy.

I mean let's be real Looking For A Third should be the subtitle of the drat game instead of Tears.

The heart island in the Depths is right next to the Ancient Observation Deck which made me think maybe the zonai were a bunch of pervs observing some freaky deaky. There's nothing else to look at around there.

I mean pretty much everything Raaru and Sonia say makes it seem like they want to bone Zelda and/or Link so, yeah.

Did anyone do the side quest/adventure that’s on top of the Temple of Time later in the game? I tried it but the flying machine I used wasn’t good enough.

Have you done the water temple yet?

Vanadium posted:

I'm increasingly radicalizing myself: Koroks are awful. I wish the game would just let me look at a cool vista and enjoy the scenery, but every time I see a cool thing, it's like, I bet there's a little guy hiding on top of it so now I have to climb up there and listen to the ya-haha. Just let me walk past the lone conspicuous tree at the highest point of the area. Let me respect its personal space. Don't make me climb it. I can't immerse myself in the wilderness like a normal hylian, I have to scrutinize every little bit of the map with the angle of "would a game designer have judged this feature of the landscape as korok-worthy", which just takes me out of the game. Instead of "ohhh, those three towers look cool and imposing", it's "hmm I probably have to climb all three of these pretty-much-identical towers don't I".

The ones I have to strap to my hoverbike and fly a couple hundred meters to their friend are honestly not so bad, it's still a little artificial but it's also making the world feel more lived-in.

I have the exact opposite take. Sure I"ll solve a puzzle little buddy, but the lazy pieces of crap who want me to haul their tired asses to a friend can rot in hell. I'm glad that Nintendo game design means i can happily ignore every single one of those little shits as they waggle their legs in the air helplessly.

MAYBE TAKE THE loving BACKPACK OFF

Man, I have no idea why people freak out over Sidon having a wife now. The Zoras live near the PLOYmus Mountain, take the hint. The fish king can have a queen and a boyfriend, everybody wins!

Everyone's horny for Link, yet Link just wants to run around and kill monsters. This conflict is the heart of the Zelda games.

I wish I could convince my wife to just go to Hyrule Castle already so she can do the cool spirit temple and master sword quest chains instead of endlessly wandering around the depths farming muddle buds and farming upgrade items for the great fairies

I mean if she wanders enough you can do both of those without going to Hyrule castle.

He was supposed to be a parallel to Ganon. Someone who is incredibly strong with magic and is cocky because they had essentially unlimited power. He was so sure of his ability to handle every situation he got complacent as his polycule crumbled away.
