Missed screencapping it, but this Great Fairy gave him the Hylian Tunic. Again, I only followed the game loosely, but it seems at least some Great Fairies give you new tunics. Don't know if that was known or not, though I'm guessing probably so.
 
Man Horses in this game practically refuse to glitch out, they may clip into things but they refuse to turn into glitchfests. It's actually amazing.

One of the Great Fairies Josh found would let him upgrade his armor for free it seemed.
 
That's weird, Josh also found Cotera but she was an upgrader and didn't give any items.

I've been watching the streams and they act like horses should behave like a steering wheel. Not saying they shouldn't be responsive for the sake of gameplay, but they are walking them towards walls, rocks, and cliffs and wonder why the horses get clumsy.
 
The soundtrack is glorious! I am floored by the new takes on old tunes, the all new melodies, the epic nature of some pieces, the tranquility of others. Wonderful stuff.

The sound design and music is ace, they nailed the ambiance and new tunes in my opinion.

Voice acting leaves some things to be desired, though.
 
Did anyone manage to download the original stream with audio? Unless there never was audio, since none of the older stream still have their audio tracks intact. What I am seeing so far is largely phenomenal, except for the barren landscape.
 
Also Hinox is a super rad Miniboss. Dude Rips trees out of the ground as his weapons. Wow. It's like every Fantasy trope in fiction actually came to life in a game.

God damn the AI in this game is so cool. The emergent situations are unreal.
 
I'm glad I'm watching the Josh stream instead, I get to see so little but yet have the satisfaction of knowing I am not as stupid as him
 
Enemies get to use elemental arrows. At this point, I'm convinced that Nintendo have dragged out every bit of potential they could out of the systems they've made.
 
I like Sidon already. Trailer made him look super serious, but he's actually a total goofball.

Edit: The SECOND STAGE MINI GUARDIANS ARE SO HYPE.

Man the enemies in this game are so well designed, it's fantastic.
 
Gah, I wanted to see how you get the Master Sword, but I need to go to sleep. Someone post how to do it once Josh finally figures out how.
 
Oh my god, this guy is getting frustrated at this ball puzzle. XD;

AFTER LOSING SO MANY TIMES, THE GAME GAVE HIM A PITY WIN.
 
He didn't actually use the food given to him after finishing the trials. Wonder if that would have made a difference.

I don't think so. From the description, it just gives you extra hearts like the other truffles. When he pulls the sword, his health counter reverts to the red hearts (the ones you always have). I guess there is a certain amount you need before you pull the Master Sword. It really makes me want to upgrade my hearts over stamina.

It's just weird to me, because weren't the Koroks implying that doing the trials would let him get the Master Sword? Maybe it was just because he could get more hearts from the Spirit Orbs?

I figured it was a waste of time. The Great Deku Tree said

"If you hope to pull the sword from its resting place, you must use your true strength."

Temp hearts wouldn't be your true strength.

I wonder how many hearts you need. In most Zelda games you get the master sword after 3 dungeons, which would also net you 3 hearts. So that's usually 6 hearts. In Zelda 1 the white sword requires 5 hearts to wield it and the magical sword requires 12.
 
I hope the places that reference older games aren't just "Hey it has the same name!" but have something interesting for older fans to notice. I BETTER SEE SOME EGGS ON KOHOLIT ROCK

I think it's a bit of both. The names that make reference to games in BOTW's timeline might have easter eggs, but the rest are just a cute way of fleshing out the location names without making them sound bland.

I hope there's some bigger stuff to them as well, if they're just names that'd be disappointing.
 
The individual character designs on all the zoras are so goddamn good.

ETA: The English dub, however... jesus. This is coming from someone who likes dubs.
