There is no good side.

The i skippable pre-mission bullshit is pure pish

mk64

emitters fused to shields, why aren't i doing that instead of fusing the remains of talus etc.

Currently on a long beach walk picking up tonnes of crabs.

I also went back to Lurien and found a few new side quests. The curry one was fun.

There are times when I 100% disagree with what you say about this game Bob. This is not one of the times. It is so unlike Nintendo to commit such a gameplay fail, it sticks out hugely. Considering the evident and legendary commitment to quality that Nintendo have, which surely manifests itself in rigorous and thorough play testing, it’s hard to fathom why they didn’t change this. Because they would not have missed it during play testing.

I’m wondering that’s some kind of de-bug testing phase over sight??? It just doesn’t make any sense in context to everything else they’ve achieved across these two games.

mk64

What are you guys talking about?

Bob

There are certain shrines and missions that force you to watch an unskippable sequence each time uou restart the combat shrines are terrible for it

Wookienopants

Have you tried not failing the shrines?

Bob

That’s besides the point. It’s like checkpoints in games if you don’t need them fine. THE ADDITION OF THEM wont bother you but the inclusion makes
It less frustrating. Plus it’s an EDGE rule.

mk64

Always assumed non skippable meant they were buffering a level and that it was essentially a fancy loading screen.

Bob

One more stable to find !! And then five more stable
Missions to complete

mk64

Think I’ve just completed the fossils

Bob

One more stable mission - got two of the frogging armour pieces so hopefully enough to climb in the wet - unlocked my first fairy too and upgraded all my armour

Fucking love this game. There is so much of it to do. I'm currently working my way through moving the troupe around to get the fairy's to open up. I think i've done two.

Also did the spirit of wisdom or something side quest getting the dragons claw.

Still generally only making vehicles etc when in the depths for height. Should utilise the emitters more for combat.

Beaten the fire gleeok but need to do the garudo one for the task so i will stock up on meals and then go to take it on.

Misko's quests we really interesting/fun. Needed a guide though.

It's not. That will be Starfield.

We all know you have your issues with Zelda, I strongly disagree with many of them and Zelda is therefore my GOTY

mk64

this is the sort of game where people will be finding shit for years and years to come

Bob

Only if they use a YouTube guide buddy

mk64

i mean the stuff not even in guides.

Did two sky shrines this morning on the way into work. One was a crystal inside a globe looking thing. Was just fiddly and the other was just a lava/extinguisher shrine. Just taking out a construct. Get him! Easy when you know how.

Need to find that bloomin dragon for the claw!

handsofblue

Went back to the gerudo area to mop up some side quests and found a good handful more dotted about. Quite chunky side quests, too. I now know how many caves I've left to complete. Lots.

Also need to do this dragon claw thing.

I thought I would have proceeded to get end game by now, but it keeps on giving me stuff to do!

mk64

I need to get kill the gerudo gleeok to get the guts for a sidequest. You have to use the guts from that gleeok as the fire one doesn't drop them. Argh

mk64

Finally got the guts. Got a nice rupee for my troubles. I'm not triggering many new side quests but i'm sure there are more out there. I never want this game to finish.

Going to start working on getting the 5th sage thing soon.

Still got a load of photos to take too.

handsofblue

I have the wrong claw but the right guts. Need to get more claws.

mk64

Opened up a lot of the depths now. Only a few dark spots left. Got some Goron sword thing

Evey got this for my Birthday, and unlike Breath of the Wild I've managed to really gel with it on my first attempt. I put that down to it being a little more anthropocentric compared to BotW. It's really leaning on the people rebuilding Hyrule, and there's no shortage of people to talk to, little quests to fulfill, hints and rumours to accrue, and so forth.

It feels a lot more player focussed than BotW too, to the point where it's dipping into the check box terriroty, but not quite yet. I am endlessly enamoured with how shrines and little happenings and quests and unique encounters and koroks appear to chain endlessly into each other, it just hoovers up time as you alternate between the sky, mainland, and depths.

Hyrule is changed just enough to make discovering it all over again a total treat.

mannaboy

There are no humans in Hyrule ya specist.

I dunno pal there appears to be a bit of a disagreement in the link you've posted. I'm on team Hylian is a race.

LivDiv

Pronounced Hylian or Hylian though?

Howdy, Stranger!
