I just jerked the gyro so the ball flew off the thing and landed on the other side. Puzzle complete, lmao.

Immediate impression of the Wii U version after an hour. Note in advance of all these negatives that I really really like the game. It's fun. So with that said:
- I don't have an issue with frame rates and that kind of thing in games in general unless they're just terrible. I've had zero issue with this game so far.
- Everything was too dull with my normal TV settings so I changed them to make colors pop more. Made a big difference.
- Weapons break really fast. Kill an enemy or two and it's broken. I hate that in games in general, but it's not hurting my enjoyment any because there's weapons everywhere. I bet when I find one I like though I'm going to get pretty annoyed by it.
- Weapon switching is terrible unless I'm missing something. When a weapon breaks, which happens constantly as mentioned above, it doesn't automatically equip another weapon you might have.
So instead you have to hit right on the D pad, which pauses everything and then you thumb through the weapons using the right stick. It just constantly pauses the fights. Really bad choice imo. It should auto switch. I hope they fix this or someone tells me I'm dumb and doing something wrong.
- The run button is B and the jump button is X. So instead of being diagonal from each other, you have to lift your thumb all the way up from the run button to the jump button. It's not terrible in practice but I feel like jump should have been the A button. There is no way to change this. You can only swap the run/jump button and that's it.
- There are a lot of items for health that all just do the same thing and give you some more life. They give varying degrees of health but the point remains. Immediately though it feels like too much.

Aaaaand I realized I went to a completely different region than the one I was supposed to go to. Whoops!
I put on Pro Mode and im literally getting lost but it feels so good. You lose track of the time in the game and IRL.

There are so many puzzles I did some dipshit solution for before realizing the "proper" one seconds later lol.
Even some simple ones like hopping over some spikes that were blocking a shrine. I ran over to a cliffside, climbed all the way up, and glided just to clear them before realizing they were in shallow water and I could just use crynosis to get over

Oversight or based Nintendo?
Lol I solved it by rotating it so the ball landed right at the edge and then popping it onto the tunnel.
Getting the chest was fun.
That whole puzzle felt like nintendo wanted you to find an alternate way.

Someone help me out. I can't find the last
I feel really stupid for not figuring it out.
2 shrines in order to get the sailcloth. When I'm on the tower, I see 2 shrines but it seems I can't reach them yet. One is in the snowy area, the other in the mountains. Am I missing something?

I know you posted this a while ago, but I switched my wii u settings to 1080i and I haven't really had an issue with framerate. Might just be placebo though.

Anybody else finding themselves accidentally clicking the left stick and crouching mid-fight, particularly when you're trying to dodge? It's happening to me often enough to screw me up several times and die.

Some of this npc writing is a little too cutesy and self-aware for me, not as good as past games.
There's basically one in each section of the plateau. If you go to the top of the snowy moutnain in the plateau and look around you'll see the rest of them. What runes do you have right now?

. Also, if you get into the guardhouse there's a 38 power weapon in there too by the lizalfos. I found it when I went in there again, not sure if that respawns as well. Also pretty sure the weapon you get completes a sidequest. At least it should as it fits the criteria
It's for the royal guard series, the weapon is a royal claymore but the girl at the stable doesn't say anything different so I dunno
You should climb the icy mountain to the very peak. If you look around from there you'll find the rest of the shrines.

I found a black horse and I've been trying to tame it. It kicks me off every time -- I've mounted and been bucked off about a dozen times now. I've also tried consuming stamina items to stay on longer. I've upgraded my stamina twice.
I need to know if I'm making progress by trying multiple times or if this is all wasted time and effort and potions.
Normally I'd have given up by now, but the idea that "things work the way you think they should" keeps ringing in my head. I SHOULD be making progress.. But after this many mounts I'm becoming skeptical.

Nice one, this is what I like to hear. It's perfectly normal to like both, rather than shit on one or the other.
I'll be playing Horizon when RDR2 comes out, once I pick up a PS4.
I'm tempted to go pure stamina for the entire game. More fun when death is always around the corner.

Where can I craft, 50 hours in and still find nothing about that
I see no reason to upgrade health over stamina with the shrine bucks. Health refilling items are so easy to acquire.
These puzzle shrines, man.
I just got my (item 'spoiler' for like 3h into the game)
in a way not quite as intended by nintendo, i feel.
You're apparently supposed to magnet-levitate a metal box onto a ground switch to make a ramp go up to a chest.
Well, i was both dumb and smart and used 2 of the "balls" in that shrine + a cube shaped bomb of mine,

which together were heavy enough to trigger the switch, and blowing up the bomb untriggered it again ...
Speaking of freestyling solutions, I just got done with the Divine Beast Ruta Dungeon.
For the third terminal, I used magnesis to bring the chest upstairs and used the mag'd chest to hook the ball into its socket, opening the gate just enough for me to access the terminal. I didn't even know you could move Ruta's trunk for the water fall for another 20 minutes.
The game really tells you next to nothing, and just expects you to figure it out through trial and error and intuition.
I've tamed two buck wild black horses. It's possible. For me I tapped soothe four times before being thrown off.
That's unfortunate to let graphics get in the way of enjoying such an incredible game. The one time it's been bothersome so far is Karakiko Village on Wii U

I was thinking the same thing until I ran across something while exploring north of the castle that made me realize that I need to go health upgrades
Fairly big spoiler:
If you find the master sword you can't pull it out until your health meter is a certain size (i'm guessing either max or something close to it) because trying to pull out the sword consumes your HP
I imagine it all equals out at the end, regardless of what you choose.
Stamina is definitely more important, but health will probably have its necessities later on.
speaking of stamina vs. health upgrading.
Is there no "max stamina" or "max health" in the game? i would've supposed that, if you were to find 100% of shrines, eventually you'd be unable to upgrade one of them any further, only leaving the second choice, forcing you to be somewhat "balanced" with regards to HP and stamina when maxxed out.
I'm gonna upgrade to as many hearts as i need to have as to not one-shot myself by accidentally blowing up a bomb i just put down when being chased by enemies)

Thanks again! Btw is there a storage chest system anywhere in the game? Would be nice to hoard some of the loot and keep it preserved for boss fights and the like.

Anyway to heal in real time/combat? Or can you only heal when you go to the pause menu?
Have you not completed the first four shrines after ten hours?

I spent most of yesterday playing it and also dreamt about it. Need to play some more!
Map screen, - sign. I switched it off immediately.
I wish it could still visually light up but not make the sound.

Let's just say that there's a nod to one of the previous games that makes you want to permanently increase your hearts.

Doesn't read OPs, especially not his own
I just got 2 koroks in a matter of 5 mins, I got osme kind of luck, also i think i fought a poe? There was this dancing magical humanoid thing dancing in the air, and I thought "MAYBE ITS FRIENDLY!" and got close to it until it did the "!" enemies do with the enemy music, so i took it down, to be fair it never attacked me, or atleast never got the chance, i got a electric sword out of it.
