A bit of fun cross over would be to reference something from the other game. That mission is basically advertising.

It's actually tempting to buy the DLC to get the motorbike just because there's so much fucking trekking about in this.

Yup, it's called the "Master Cycle Zero" and looks stupid. But it's got to beat all this tedious schlepping about. (Yes, I realise I'll probably get a horse, soon)

There's a motorbike?! I bought the DLC and sold my Switch before it was released. I'm looking forward to playing the whole thing again (full seed run...), the DLC is all integrated into the game, right, not selected at the main menu, or something?

The DLC is integrated into the game, though you have to get a pretty substantial way through the game before you can unlock it.
Which means that you can only get the motorbike once you no longer have any need for a motorbike.  (Though it is fun just whizzing around Hyrule on it.)  It also means that you end up just doing all the DLC as its own entity, rather than stumbling upon it as you explore, which sort of undermines the game as a whole.

I enjoyed the DLC more than most I think - it has some of the best shrines on the game - but it's definitely a little underwhelming.

Hahaha... I've just got the climber's bandanna (thank fuck) and it properly makes Link look like a girl!

That's one of the less ridiculous outfits.

If you've found the bandana you're within spitting distance of your first horse iirc.

Yeah, that doesn't seem worth a spoiler.

I have a horse now, it is a bastard to control.

I'm also fed up with being asked which power up I want.

As a rule of thumb, anything that can be sold for a decent amount of money is useful.

The horse is a bastard to control? BotW has the best most convincing horses in any game ever made.

Would you like it to control like a go cart instead of a horse?

You're just complaining for the sake of it now, or else you'd have stopped playing.

I've always complained for the sake of it, but feel my complaints are always sound.

The issue I have with the horses is that they continue to act wild after I've registered them. I carry more than is physically possible without even bugging pockets, I pause to stuff my face in the middle of a fight because eating magically heals me, I climb pretty much anything like fucking Spider-Man; there's no need to make things realistic that don't add to the game and the horse occasionally veering off course because I haven't petted it or given it enough apples doesn't add anything as far as I can see.

My first blood moon

Lol. You're tripping balls man.

Anyway, do I need stamina for anything except the climbing, or can I just pile all my spirit orbs into hearts. The climbing's annoying so can get to fuck off it's not entirely essential anywhere.

Also you can gimp the climbing on most angles to the point were stamina is irrelevant

I think I used the horse for all of 10mins.

Fuck knows where I left it.
