I completed the glide set, what a blast! They should have given Link a superhero landing animation lol, but it's comical how it works now.

I dunno. Theres something hilarious about slamming as fast as you can into the ground just to see Link stand up perfectly fine

This game is amazing and everything for what it is, but the more I play it the more I appreciate classic style Zelda games.

Like in my head I'm just comparing myself brain-dead flying on a hoverbike around the Fire Temple like a mongoloid, to a big epic highly designed temple with actual puzzles thought up by designers that you have to solve to win.

Yeah, I will never not be bummed that this is the future of the series as good as this is

I miss classic dungeons. That's my only complaint from BotW and TotK. Everything else is aces

I just bought the game!

I seriously considered getting one of the marked up collector's editions they still have on Amazon, but I eventually decided that the only extra things I'd get that I actually cared about were the steel case and the collector's edition box itself (to go with my BotW one), and I couldn't justify spending $200 on that.

Yeah I think it's a mistake to make this the absolute future of the series. These games are great, but so are the older Zeldas. At the very least they should have two separate teams going forward. One can make the big budget open world games and the other can work on traditional ones.

I think even if they do copy this formula again itll be drastically different. No Zelda has ever been similar for more than 2 games that I can think of.

I imagine itll keep the open world and survival aspects but change up the rest of the formula.

if they told me the next game Link was a caterpillar for 80% of the game I wouldnt be surprised

Nice, I whip out my canon stick and give the swarm a shot, often hurting myself in the process. But worth it for that big pile of homing eyeballs.

No, it's Zelda Nuts and Bolts.

Finished Fire Temple, also took down my first Gleeok, the Thunder one in Akkala.

How

First time I fought one, I got killed twice with the same laser. One-shot (or nearly so), revived by fairy, then killed again during the same beam attack. Repeat like three game overs until I gave up on that one. Fuckers don't mess around if you aren't prepared. >:[

Arrows, mostly.

I've only fought the ice one once and it wasn't that bad.

Just about finished with the Lightning Temple, it feels like a big step up in concept and challenge compared to the Wind Temple.

25+ hours in, I'm not sure how to weigh it against BotW. It's hard to recapture the magic of discovering something for the first time. And exploring the world feels a lot less treacherous both because I have a rough idea of where I'm going and because there are just so many more ways to get around.

Both of the lead-ups to the temples felt more "Zelda-y" for lack of a better word than the comparable stuff in BotW.

It's way better than BotW

That isn't a weigh-in against TotK, it's one against your own experiences. If you played TotK first then you would say the same about BotW: your play order changes your feelings of the situation.

Also I have not finished the tutorial by this definition, lol

As I predicted a few days ago. 1.1.2 breaks the dupe glitch

THIS IS NOT A DRILL

DUPLICATION GLITCH IS PATCHED OUT

Ive only seen reports that the Bow Dupe and the ShieldHop/Glide dupe are fixed.

unsure on the weapon glitch.

but dont update if you want to dupe

Edit: Ive seen one report that weapon dupe is also patched

Yeah that's probably for the best. I shut the wifi off on the Switch.

All of the dupes (besides the "food bonus dupe", I guess) are basically just the same glitch abused in a different way. Fixing the bug fixes them all by default.

I just won't update it lol

Oh god hopefully it didn't download on mine. Turned off internet connection just in case.

Aw, dammit. Pretty sure by the time I go to check, it'll have already updated.

Welp, guess I'm farming dragon parts the hard way.

This is why I always suspend, the game can't update if I don't close the session. Even if I got the update I'm never ending the session until my dupe stock is complete, or a new glitch comes along.

For those who dont know

Settings -> System -> Automatic Software Updates = Off

Yeah, I hope you did that >_> I ain't updating SHIT until I upgraded all the armor and the DLC is about to come out lol

And I just got my first diamond. Ill stock up on these before running the update.

Im sure another dupe glitch will be discovered. But this one is too good for not wasting hours farming rupees or Armor upgrade parts

[LFAQs-redacted-quote]

I like having a life and not mindless grinding and seeking out the same enemies or mining literal 100s of Amber just to get a couple defense points on my armor >_>

[LFAQs-redacted-quote]

I think so too, but people are allowed to do whatever they want in a single-player game so I'm not fussed about it, lol.

[LFAQs-redacted-quote]



God no. Farming rupees just to buy armor sets I needed to not make areas annoying nearly made me quit in BotW

and then upgrading is annoying. Without duping Ive killed hundreds of Bokoblins and only got like 12 Guts.

this takes away the most boring parts of the game so I can explore and adventure without feeling a need to endlessly grind so I dont get one shot by a Silver Lyneel

Just beat the game. It was fantastic! Final boss is kinda easy though

Well yeah you broke the game

Blue_Inigo posted...

Maybe >_> But it still was super manageable and I barely had to use health items.

[LFAQs-redacted-quote]

Not that I noticed. Everyone seems to be considerate.

Guess what?

Purah best girl!
