You'll find most sidequests at stables and towns.
You'll have to spot shrines from high up or walk around and catch them with the radar. Some require you to do stuff before they even appear. That's all.
You can see the number of shrines you completed in the loading screen.
Yes, but you can redistribute your health and stamina upgrades at a certain place, so no need to worry about that too much.

The game finally clicked with me yesterday. As I was slowly heading North East, someone called for me as I passed a pond. It was a
I really enjoyed this sequence of events. The flow of it all all felt so natural, all due to how the environment is laid out and is populated. Open World games are more often a "miss" than a "hit" for me, but if the game can keep this up, I'll be very pleased.
Zora, who told me to head towards Zora's Domain. The journey there was pretty lengthy, and surprisingly full of characters. The city itself looked nothing like what I expected. It's so grand and over-designed. I love it. So many Zora designs and you get to see how they nap and eat and play and work. I also met up with one of the zoras I saw along the way. I'm a sucker for this stuff. One of the things I liked most about Twilight Princess was seeing the older than dirt Gorons in their little homes with tables and plates and rugs. Details like that really help sell me these locations. Another lovely touch to Zora's domain is that quite a lot of Zoras seem to know Link, and that they are continuing the tradition of hooking Link up with a zora bride.
Either way, the merfolk gave me the quest to go up a mountain where a Zelda 1 Lynel(?) roamed, and asked me to steal its electric arrows. I figured I could take that dude on, but I quickly realised that I most certainly could not. Once I finally snagged enough arrows, I jumped off the mountain in a desperate attempt to not get killed once more. As I was gliding down, I noticed that I was right above the Divine Beast's basin and quit for the night after I rested up in the nearby bed.

You can swap 10 luminous stones for 2 diamonds in
zora domain
Also, after the initial trade, he will give you 1 diamond for every 10 luminous stones you give him.
you could most certainly kill it.
It's hard, but the game forces you to learn how to parry and dodge and use flurry attacks for the harder enemies. So yeah, you most certainly can, but you have to git gud, which is a thing this game likes to remind you constantly.
Is there any pattern to when the Blood Moon appears? I assumed it'd be something like every week, but it seems like it might be variable based on what some people are saying here. There's a shrine that
, so I need to know when it'll happen!
only gets revealed during the Blood Moon
That's exactly where I'm at right now and that's how I got my diamonds.

It's really strange. Sometimes I'll have them appear almost back-to-back, other times it'll be a bunch of days in between. The game has an uncanny sense for the shittiest time to trigger it and fuck you up.
Also, what's with the music sometimes playing in reverse for a couple of notes? Every time that happens during the night I expect the sky to turn red and shit to go down, but it's just cooked into the ambient sound. Really unnerving.

It's the green tunic for this game.
Ahah nice ! The most effective weapon I got so far (I just got my first memory back) is an 45dmg axe from a mini guardian

One more question for the night, are there any heart containers aside the 4 dungeon ones? I assumed not but i've assumed wrong in this game.
I'm tempted to look up as to how
but I really don't want to. I've

I'm getting a bit...wary of the game so far. It's probably because I've been playing it almost non-stop, so I think I'll lay off of it for the most part today.

Beside exchanging for 4 orbs, no.
Wasteland Tower is super cool. The way you have to get to it.
For those of you who have done this desert area, a question:
For those of you who have done this desert area, a question:
I went straight for the tower from the Plateau. Now that I've seen the map, I'm thinking of teleporting back to a stable, getting a horse and following the road into the desert. How's the way there? Recommend doing that or just glide down into the desert?

Do shrines, trade in orbs for heart containers.

Ok cool, I'm going to guess the hearts max out at 30 and i'm only missing one major dungeon, but don't even have half the shrines yet. Gonna be a long run here.

You know how people complain about raining all the time? Yeah that quest took me long ass time because of it. Fuck the rain in this game, it brings nothing but tedium.

Not really, just learn to love new ones.
Say what? Bud, it might as well be slapping you right in the face because you somehow managed to walk completely past what you're looking for.
Haha, I waited for a clear day. If you reload it changes the weather forecast next to the map.

I appreciate the vote of confidence, but I have accepted my scrub-tier skills. I don't mind accepting that I was nowhere near ready to take that thing on. I have not parried or used a flurry attack yet, as no NPC has taught me how yet. Maybe I'll learn or stumble upon it eventually.
There is a much better mount specifically designed for desert travel. Plus a horse wouldn't be much good in the canyon because of how vertical it is.

i think he may not know HOW to get it rather than where it's at?
I finished the
section yesterday and that sure seemed to go quicker than
. Even the beast was easier to do.
has way better puzzle design too. Played til 3AM, game has its hooks in me. Once I start playing, I can't stop. Two beasts done.
I was scrolling through the map and saw
I got my next goal. I now have the entire east to west covered pillar-wise. Everything in the north and south is left.

I was scrolling through the map and saw
'forest of time'. So I guess that's where the master sword is?
I do like the concept that powerful weapons only are temporary.
a thing that could have been better is the ability to switch the weapon you have on hand with something that drops.
Just pressing the Y button for 3 secs while over a weapon should switch them.
I thought about that but you are straight up told (shown even!) what you have to do when you find it...
Interesting. I might take a horse to find another stable and then go on foot the rest of the way.
You can upgrade the inventory space
with Korok seeds
About durability, I actually like it, it´s forced me to try every kind of weapon and constantly change my fighting style. It also adds another layer of tension when you are running out of weapons. You just have to learn to not get attached to your weapons, just use them when you need them and if they break chances are you´ll soon find something even better not long after.
Yeah, I know where, just not how. Like I said,
I did the Korok Trials, even the 4th one right there next to the Deku Tree, but I'm clearly missing something.
I'm sure it'll be one of those things where I'll figure it out instantly after I ask for help, so I won't ask...yet

So far my favorite thing is sneaking into a camp of bokoblin and planting a bomb where they store their weapons, then alerting them and detonating it when they go to get armed
IT WAS A RUSE BITCHES

The big tree guy straight up tells you, and if you try to get it you will pretty much figure it out.

Went to Kakariko and didn't find anything of the sort. Can anyone help me out here in the least spoilery way possible? Should I wait and see or should I go somewhere now?

the shekah have special gear for the rain so they can climb.
I'm 4 days in and maybe 25 hours and I can confidently say this is my favorite game I've ever played. Every minute has been a joy and I haven't even touched the main quest. Still have all the beasts to go after and a ton of side quests to complete. I`ve been shrine hunting and casually exploring this beautifully massive world. I love everything about this game. A neat little extra bonus is seeing which path my 3 kids choose to take. I'm very careful about not getting spoilers but I have a general idea and it's fun to see.
I said nothing about the art being poor in my post.

Can someone clarify this story point for me, hopefully without spoilers:
the back story of link/zelda/beasts/champions vs Ganon is referred to as "10,000 years ago" by some Impa and the singing bird but then Link was asleep for a 100 years? And recovered memories show me with the champions from 100 years... is it a 100 or 10,000....or am i just confused.
