Wow that water shrine near the beginning of the game is just awful. Finally beat it but what a royal pain in the ass Jesus. Haven't been this frustrated with a game since bloodborne.

I suck at dodging. I just can't do it, even against low end moblins.
I probably can't parry either, but I never get the opportunity to try as the game only throws 2-handed weapons at me. I think I still have the same couple shields from the start of the game.
Made a couple of comparisons to the 2014 build:

Wait, I thought this game was revealed last year at e3? I thought the only thing before that were some bullshit concept footages...
Rhoam tells you to go there. It's great that you were able to chart your own course but the way the game tells you to go that would be your next stop after the great plateau.

Personally no, I don't feel it's overrated for these reasons. I think the performance is a bigger deal than people are making it out to be, but here I am having a blast with it so.
I am not tackling shrine after shrine though. Like people who hunted down every "?" In the witcher 3, I think it's best to avoid map clearing. Just wander around and log where you want, not just where you see a shrine.

I turned them off.
The aiming feels like it's a massive judder. Not just with the bow, the overall. Even to mark a shrine with the Shikra Compass.

I waited half a day for the clock to hit 5pm for a shadow to cast that leads to a shrine. At 4:30 it started raining smh

I think they fucked up the rewards for doing the whole
thing

They first showed BotW at E3 2014 with that guardian chase, then at the Game Awards in Dec 2014 they showed it in playable form and the game was set for a 2015 release before the delay. The map is largely the same as the map they showed in 2014.
Looks like they really were on track for a 2015 release before the delay and they spent 2 years on details.
I was exploring hyrule castle, got to the end, walked into a room with no doors expecting a cutscene and/or a option to finish the game and i was going to choose no and go back, nope battle starts

Is this a joke?
Couldn't you find better quality screenshots for the Game Awards demo.

I saw what this said before you fixed it. Welp. Never mind. Still, without context I suppose it's not much of a spoiler.

Bloodborne has been dethroned. You heard it here first.
People really need to drop the whole "ubisoft towers" thing, all it does is give you an outline of the area and a few key named locations filled in. There's still plenty of places that don't get added in each region until you get there yourself and the towers don't reveal things like sidequests

I never saw this and I've been devouring Zelda news since this game was announced.
I need to dig into this

I've almost played 25 hours and only have done 1 divine beast. This game is.... large.
Had a run in with 2 fully functional guardians, how in all that is holy do you win that?

I'm enjoy the game so far but I can't believe in such a vast world we don't even have
, it was one of my favorite aspects of Twilight Princess. I honestly don't understand why it was possible, would have been so great. Also the lack of

It's near Hateno Village. The Rito bard dude is on a spire in the bay. You get the quest from him. Might have to do another shrine quest with him though. That was the second time I saw him.
Actually I don't think it's a shrine on second thought. The quest is called Hero's Cache.

Seriously when I die, I wanna go to this world lol. It used to be destiny islands from kingom hearts but this place is so dreamy and comfortable.

I don't think the ubisoft comparison is fair at all
It's not like towers populate the map with icons or anything. it's just like cartography and a decent viewpoint to mark things to see
I also disagree with the downtime and weapon breaking, but that's a matter of opinion i guess
The Game Awards demo was off-screen footage. Those are the best quality out there.
The Game Awards 2014 footage was off-screen.

How do I "untarget" from the sensor an element of the compendium? Should be super obvious but I didn't find that option.

Just a hint, because it annoyed the hell out of me, if it's the "17 of 24" quest, it's not talking about 5pm as in the time.
(better solution hint)
Think of it as "5 of 12" on a clock face with the rock pillar as the centre..

It's still *pretty far* out there for a tutorial shrine, you're gonna have a lot of combat situations on your way to Kakariko. I got there in about 5 hours and I went there pretty straightforward, doing some minor exploration on the way.

Nope, easily met my expectations and can easily see it become a top favorite of mine. Downtime? I've had plenty to do and having a lot of fun whatever I end up doing. Shrines are great, mini dungeons with a bunch different style of puzzles. Towers are actually handled really well as each one has its own challenge to ascend it whether it be a puzzle to reach it or it might be guarded by enemies. Side quests are great so far, maybe not the most original but the npcs have a lot charm which makes them enjoyable. Weapon system requires you to constantly adapt to the situation, also weapons are in no short supply.
10/10 for me.

I think some people just see all towers as Ubisoft towers, where you climb them and then it shows you a billion little collectables instead of how they actually are in the game where it just gives you a regions topography and a nice vantage point.
I know right! Especially when the game has a 24 hour day/night and shows you the current time in the 24hr format! I get it they wanted to have a classic clock riddle but, c'mon, don't use a 24hr format when you're talking about an analogue clock face. Clocks are 12hr.

Pro Tips w/o story spoilers:
Where you left him. Resting by the entrance of the path.
5 banana recipe is OP as fuck in hard fights
Moblins can't swim. Lead them to water and smack them in with heavy weapons and it's an instant win.
North east part of the map has hella crafting materials including diamonds. All of the rupees you will ever need are here

Nope, despite my fears of "open world fatigue" it is the legit best open world game I've played, emphasis on the open world part. Even the 100+ shrines, which I thought would be more of a quantity over quality thing, seems to be something I was incorrect about as well.
