Gyro aiming is great and normal motion controls are whatever. Hating motion doesn't mean you have to hate gyro also. It's so nice.

I don't get the hype behind Ancient Cistern myself. The one setpiece is cool I guess but other than that I remember nothing else about it.

The sandship was much more fun to me because the Bow was a long time coming and it trivialized all combat and felt great.

It's the only mainline Zelda game I've never beaten and I gave up about where you did. I made it to the final dungeon area, kinda' and there was this thing where a slider puzzle determined room placement and after just running all around to grab bafmodads before it'd let me even get there, I turned the game off without even saving and knew I'd never return.

That game loving LOVED to waste your time and give you busywork. Not having an overworld is completely hosed. It omitted everything I loved about Zelda and did the things I've never enjoyed really, really badly. It's the Other M of the Zelda franchise.

It kills me they used up all that killer music on such an unsatisfying chore of a game.

You were steps away from the final boss, OP

I mean, I hate slide puzzles too, but there were definitely worse parts of the game than that. Overall I liked Skyward Sword though. The remaster certainly helped.

I also do not play Zelda primarily for the dungeons, which is what made Breath of the Wild so goddamn good to me, and something I hope Tears of the Kingdom doesn't forget in its expansion.

Her English VO is so allegedly awful that when people started seeing folks complain that Zelda was reprising her role, the vitriol was so deep that folks genuinely thought it was because her VA had done something controversial and was being cancelled.

If you get a shrine quest for a shrine you've already done it will automatically clear right then and there. So if it hasn't, then it probably is one you're missing.

Just played a bit of BOTW as a final goodbye, how am I just now figuring out that there are lil magnetic blocks in the major test of strength rooms that let you block the final laser barrage phase?

each test of strength has its own way of blocking the spinnies. SOme are in water so you make a cryonis block. Some have those magnetic pillars you lift. Some have the breakable pillars. etc etc.

Is there any leg armor other than the Zoni pants that can get up to 28 defense and also have an effect? Right now I'm rocking Diamond Circlet, Champion's Leathers, and Zoni pants and while I love having insane defense and still having useful effects I gotta say the shorts next to the tunic isn't really the drip. Zoni's a pretty useful effect, but I'd probably do something a bit worse if it looked a bit better. Do I have any other options?

the "of the wild" armor set has 4 base defense, but it doesn't confer any bonus unless worn as an entire set. Probably same with the full shrine completion armor as well.

All caves and wells have been found. Compendium is going well too but I'm gonna need to intentionally break a bunch more stuff to get the intact versions registered. Need 5 more sage's wills and I've been everywhere in the sky islands so I'm just gonna look up locations and cross reference where I was when I didn't yet have sensor for chests, more likely than not. I'm probably missing some old maps but I have all the outfits I think so meh. Then sidequests and I'll probably be good to actually put the game down. Oh, maybe autobuild schematic full completion as well? I wonder if anyone's been good enough to note where each one is located, cause there's no marking on the map for that.

Phenotype posted:

I finished the third temple yesterday and I should probably start thinking about finishing the game at some point here, with Street Fighter 6 and Diablo 4 out, and Final Fantasy 16 in a couple weeks. I'm nowhere near what feels like "endgame" progression, though, even though I've got like 15 hearts and two stamina wheels and level 2-3 gear. I've only got 3 full batteries and it feels like I've barely explored much of the Depths and I've only seen a handful of sky islands. I dunno, the world is just SO big with SO much stuff going on.

So what are the must-see quests and stuff that everyone's run into? I've still got the Water Temple and that area of the map to do, but otherwise I've explored (at least scratched the surface) most of the land regions now, and I dunno what I really need to do before doing the last phenomena and trying to finish up. I don't want to miss anything really cool, though!

Did you do the side adventure at Typhlo Ruins and/or the challenge on top of the Temple of Time? Those are the side adventures I forgot to experience. Though the thyplo one does require you to have beaten all the dungeons, so...

Question about super late game:

What happens if you don’t have Sages during the Demon Army battle? Do the five bosses that appear in the end have to be defeated in a boss rush mode like the Blight Ganons? I did everything prior to this fight so the Sages were like “I got this fam” and off I went.

Yes you have to fight any boss you didn't fight as part of the story on your own.
