Only Nintendo could make me but a system for one game. So goooooooood, I haven't enjoyed a game this much since the first dark souls.

You need to be next to a pot, not just a fire. Then you go into your materials screen and hold up to 5 ingredients and then exit to the game world. If you're close enough you'll get a cook option.

So after literally 30 years. Nintendo got the balls to make a Zelda game like the first two again. I love the Zelda formula introduced in LttP. I've loved every Zelda ever made. I always thought it would be really risky and unnecessary to go completely out of the box or to ditch the tried and true dungeon order narrative. Zelda did get incredibly predictable, yes. But it was the sort of familiarity I loved.

I was wrong. They should have done this earlier.

Go into the inventory, select the ingredient and pick "hold" instead of "eat". Then you just select any additional ingredients you also want to hold at the same time, and press A for each one. When you have the ingredients you want, walk up to a cooking pot and cook.
 
At what point does the game tell you about (Early game spoilers, but after leaving the Great Plateau)
using the orbs from shrines to upgrade?
I'm at K Village and it hasnt told me anything, yet I know how to do it from other threads.

Also it's worth noting that there's no actual need to "select" the item before holding it, by pressing x on the item you want you will hold it without the extra step.

How do you get the "Cold Resistance" clothes in the Plataeu? I'm confused as to what the game wants me to do.

The game doesn't "want" you to do anything. There are multiple ways to clear all the shrines. You don't even need cold resistance clothes. That's just one of the more obvious solutions to a longer term problem.

If you're asking specifically how to solve the optional "quest" of getting the clothes from the Old Man...
You just need to figure out what the missing ingredient in his recipe is and cook the dish. It's really simple, the answer is in the name of the dish. If you don't know what I'm talking about at all and are very confused, then you should find a house in the far east side of the map and go in and read the book there first.

Did you get the initial 4 in the Plateau because once you do, I believe that's when the game tells you about it. You're led to the area where you do this the first time.
 
Found the "Warm Doublet" in the old man's shed at the Plataeu. Don't know if I missed it the first time or what.

...how do you get the Hylian top?

May goddess smile upon you : )
 
There are two apparently minor thing in previous Zelda game that I like a lot, but are almost exclusive in past gsmes:
- the dungeon music in Lttp
- the stylish intro in WW.

This game conquered me in the first loading screen.

It seems like finding out he's the king spawns the doublet in his hut anyway. Thanks for the help though!
 
Anyone else notice the lack of an actual digital manual for the game? There is one but there's nothing gameplay related in it besides stuff about amiibo. Finally decided to look at it and there's nothing of value in it.

Just go into your inventory and highlight it and select 'Drop'.
 
Upgrading stamina makes life so much easier, but so does extra heart containers lol. Also cooking 3-4 apples at a time when you have 50+ is not fun at all.
 
Just got my Wii U retail copy. No fuss at all. Looking forward to diving in tonight when I have some free time!

Huh, I got all four, spoke to the old bloke on top of the temple and he said to go and find Impa, so off I went. Not once did it tell me to go to the statues to upgrade, lol
 
I'm like 20 minutes in playing this handheld and I'm already certain I underrated the handheld aspect of the switch.

The screen is gorgeous.
 
This game is incredible.

I'm about 6-7 hours in and have been doing some side things (mostly shrines) while following the main path so far. I did jump off another side of the Great plataeu and experience a shrine which blew me away it was so good.

I've just
met the little girl who is actually an old sheikah lady but got turned into a kid in an experiment (the diaries were a fun read) and carried a blue flame to her lab. Now trying to figure out how the memory system works and which one would the safest to try to get to as a first.

hmmm... when you went to the temple, you didn't notice the status was lit up and able to interact with? Thinking back that's I believe how it went for me.
 
I'm really enjoying this game so far. Here's some early impressions (I've only just made it to my first tower after the plateau)

The controls feel great and I've had no problems with the controllers desyncing (I'm playing the Switch version)

The way the world reacts to thins is amazing. I chased a wild boar into a bokoblin camp and they actually tried to ill it for meat. It was easy to snipe them all as they were distracted!

Lizalfos are amazing in this game. Their animations are fantastic and they actually seem to be quite intelligent. Whenever water is nearby they've been running into it in order to snipe me from a distance.

The rafts are fun to use. After jumping off the plateau I headed south to the big lake so I got quite familiar with using them.

Korok seeds are really fun to find (I currently have 12) and they've completely changed the way I normally play big games like this. I'm completely veering off course from where I want to go if even something as small as a rock looks out of place.

WHY ARE THERE MIMICS?
That seriously scared the shit out of me.

This game is truly something special.
 
Updating the game right now finally!Any way to see the progress(in numbers) besides the bar on the games icon?
 
I asked in spoler thread, but i'll ask here.

So, feeling like a dumb ass and I'm onlly at like my 7th shrine and I can't figure it out. I feel like I passed something that would answer the riddle..

At the Shee Vaneer : Twin Memories - there are a bunch of spheres on the ground. I assume i have to put them in a particular order but I'm missing something.
