I'm doing all stamina.

I'm at 13 hearts after 48 shrines

 

[mStudios]

Am I not supposed to see a person in the

?

I'm doing all stamina.

Mild spoilers

Spoiler

you should get some hearts, you'll be glad

 

[Astral Dog]

So is it better to invest in hearts first or stamina?Upgrades that is. I've been doing both equally.

You need 13 hearts to get

the master sword i think

The Gerudo dungeon is pretty damn amazing. Again and again this game redefines what I consider "Zelda" but damn if it isn't Zelda. Everything feels SO RIGHT even though it's so different. Give me moreeeeeeeeeeeee.

 

[Hydrus]

Yeah, do both.

Spoiler

you can switch them at any time for 20 rupees if you talk to the demon statue

Thats right! Forgot about that!

I was going to do the Goron one next but the way people have been talking about the Gerudo and their dungeon have me rethinking my decision.

Ugh, why is this game so good?

It's the best one. I wish they went ahead and made the Devine beast longer and harder.

The gerudo one is amazing though. And I can't help but think I did something the long way when a simple solution was present.

It's all very good. Just do what feels right.

 

[Rean]

I think this is my favorite Zelda now.

 

[ryechu]

Feel like I'm hitting a power creep now, just took down a Major Shrine only getting hit once and only broke one weapon. Beserk Gear, Fried Banana Recipe from Rito and a Great Icesword made quick work.

I'm waiting for dark souls mode.

 

[duckroll]

So did I make a mistake doing the "best" dungeon first?!

 

[Kinsei]

So did I make a mistake doing the "best" dungeon first?!

I will say that the Zora dungeon (if you include the path to it) is amazing. I'll be pleasantly surprised if the game manages to top it.

 

[mStudios]

So did I make a mistake doing the "best" dungeon first?!

While I haven't done the Gerudo one, I think the Zora dungeon was pretty good. At least the way you get inside the elephant was pretty amazing imo.

 

[HawthorneKitty]

Yeah, or you can actually hold a Great Flamesword (or torch) and it keeps you warm. A Flamesword will actually melt the ice if you just stand next to it haha.

Spoiler for where to find cold gear:

Spoiler

the Rito village in the Mid West or buy a Cold Head Accessory from the Gerudo in the South West after completing their divine. Warm doublet from discovering the cooking recipe and getting it from the old man on the Plateau.

Sweet thanks, I'll try them out since I'm a cheapass.

 

[dickroach]

where can I go to get a good one handed sword?
all I've got is two handed swords and they suuuuck for thunderblight ganon
I ran around looking for one on the field for like 20 minutes but can't find anything good

 

[random25]

You're teasing me with all this Gerudo dungeon talk lol. I almost did it the first time I saw it but just went ahead the town and did more side stuff lol.

 

[Mister Wolf]

Anyone know a good spot to farm electric keese wings or create them?

 

[dickroach]

I just did it. I didn't think it was any better than the Zora one

 

[Admiral Woofington]

So about mipha she was going to

Spoiler

ask link to marry her

Best girl

 

[KZXcellent]

Try a luminous stone.

It worked! Thanks!

 

[random25]

I haven't done any dungeons so far so I'll reserve my judgment for that.

 

[VegaShinra]

Did enemies always show HP or am I losing my mind?

 

[Timeaisis]

Glided into

Spoiler

Akkala tower base

from a random peak I found all the way back in Lanayru. Then snuck up top. Man, what an awesome game.

I need to remember to hit all these cool spots I find later. I'm trying to fill out my map a little first.

 

[random25]

Did enemies always show HP or am I losing my mind?

You equipped that Champion shirt most likely. That is its benefit.

 

[Kinsei]

Did enemies always show HP or am I losing my mind?

That's because you are wearing the blue tunic. Some pieces of armor have special abilities so it's beneficial to read gear descriptions.

 

[takriel]

Did enemies always show HP or am I losing my mind?

It's the result of you wearing a particular armor set.

 

[Zocano]

Well the "Mirro Shaz" shrine is fuck-off annoying.

Hitting these balls shouldn't fucking drain weapon durability or the chest should just dump out a sledgehammer for you every time because now I'm out.

 

[VegaShinra]

You equipped that Champion shirt most likely. That is its benefit.

Aahh. Should read the descriptions lol. Thanks.

How is the enemy variety in the game?

 

[SolVanderlyn]

Memory spoilers

Spoiler

They directly mention Link's father? That's definitely a first...

I feel like this Link has an actual personality despite never speaking. His dialogue options all have a distinct tone to them that makes him seem like an earnest, if not slightly snarky hero. Best Link since Wind Waker IMO.

 

[qko]

"See that mountain, you can climb it..."

 

[ckaneo]

How is the enemy variety in the game?

Pretty bad actually. I mean the same enemies have variety by themselves and in weapon use

 

[Kinsei]

How is the enemy variety in the game?

It's decent. The game relies a bit too heavily on pallet swaps for my liking.

 

[sanstesy]

You know what would be great for especially this game as an update to keep it alive longer after the DLC?

Multiple challenge runs. Basically,

Spoiler

Eventide Island

on a wide-game scale. For example, activate all towers with the game taking your stamina/heart upgrades and food eating ability away. The game is able to be completed and approached in such complete different ways and such a challenge mode would amplify that.

I really wonder what hard mode entails. It could go in so many different directions.

 

[Kard8p3]

How is the enemy variety in the game?

Pretty decent, and one thing to note is that

Spoiler

if I remember right, the more you kill of a certain type of enemy, the more often stronger variations of that enemy will spawn

 

[lt519]

Got my final labryinth gear. Still haven't found a second great fairy, I'm hopeful a second one can upgrade it. Low DEF compared to all the other gear but triple ATK+ wrecks.

 

[Neoleo2143]

Spoiler

Has anyone beaten the Forgotten Temple?

 

[ckaneo]

Who/where is karsons boss so I can buy a house?

 

[Yoshimitsu126]

One whole day without Zelda is almost over... Just three more until my next play session.
I'm gonna stretch this game as long as possible to have something to look forward to in Fridays.

 

[mStudios]

Who/where is karsons boss so I can buy a house?

Go behind the house. You'll see him.

 

[Branduil]

Who/where is karsons boss so I can buy a house?

Check behind the back of the house.

 

[CharminUltra]

Is it hyperbolic to say that I never want this game to end, despite having cleared under 10% of the main quest? Currently making my way to Zora's Domain and the road to it is absolutely beautiful. And the music... my lord.

 

[Branduil]

It's decent. The game relies a bit too heavily on pallet swaps for my liking.

Just like the original LoZ!

 

[peanutbutterlatte]

Finally got a chance to play for about half an hour before work this morning. Game is immensely intriguing. Want to explore! Unfortunately will have to wait another 12 hours...

Also, Amiibo functionality;

Spoiler

Oh just fuck you Nintendo locking the retro Link outfits behind toys

 

[Exuro]

How is the enemy variety in the game?

Probably my only big issue with the game. There's only like 6 or 7 enemy types plus variations of them. The game is missing a lot of staple zelda enemies, which is fine in itself, but every area sharing the same enemies is kind of annoying when they could have had environment based enemies(and not just variations based on the environment).

 

[EroticSushi]

Wait are you not suppose to always be seeing enemy HP? Isn't that the red bar above the head on all the enemies?

 

[Kinsei]

Wait are you not suppose to always be seeing enemy HP? Isn't that the red bar above the head on all the enemies?

They mean numbers. It's handy for seeing exactly how much damage you are doing.

 

[random25]

Wait are you not suppose to always be seeing enemy HP? Isn't that the red bar above the head on all the enemies?

You can only see the HP bar normally. You can only actually see the HP's numerical value as an armor ability.

 

[dickroach]

you can see the actual number
