Same goes for ice weapons in hot areas. They will also insta kill weaker enemies in those areas because the heat causes them to melt.

Horses seem to be included more for casual players who just want to experience the main story, since following the roads leads you to all the major areas it seems---considering they can auto-run down the roads I think younger kids and those who are more focused on beating the game will like them more.
I did that on my first try.
In fact another motion control one I saw people complaining about earlier I did in one try too, bonus chest included.

Another thing I just discovered. If you stand next to an ice block with a fire weapon it'll melt (slowly but still).

this is a bad generalization. i'm sure there is a huge variation in that ratio .
My brother and I don't get to see each other too often, but he made it over one night and we put a good six hours in. The only point of frustration was
not being able to figure out how to damage the divine beast by the Gerudo village.
this can only be done after another specific quest is completed,

I'm glad to know that my approach isn't as weird as I thought it was! I just ran into too many instances where I left my horse to go climb, and suddenly realized I was on the other side of a giant mountain range with my poor horse left behind.
I agree with you Admiral, if the horses just spawned next to you when called I would probably use them a lot more. Instead, they just feel like something that holds me back from exploring the way I want to.
By the way, anyone know exactly what the Defense stat on the clothes and armors does?
Got my Link up to over 40 now, and I notice it takes a pretty hard hit to hurt him. Is it just flat out damage reduction so all attacks do [damage]-46 now? If so... how much is a heart worth?

Do you guys find yourself constantly changing out gear, or picking a set and treating that as your main set?
I'm doing the latter, with the Sheikah stealth suit. It just looks so fucking cool, and I actually really enjoy utilizing stealth in this game. When I get to a particularly tough fight, I'll switch over to something with more protection, but I'm in that stealth suit like 80% of the time, at least.

Kind of a mature plot-point too with her being separated, but still married.
Using a horse is so useless in this game. Most of the time you'll be better off climbing, paragliding, or fast travelling..meaning your horse is left behind. The few times you'd want to use a horse you can't since you cannot spawn it with a whistle and need to go out of your way to a stable and they are limited to very specific locations where you wouldn't even want a horse.
Poor design decision, yes it encourages climbing and all but at the expense of limiting you when you actually want a horse.

Ugh that's what I've been trying to do the past few days. Just wandering around death mountain mining as much ore as possible. Is there an easier non save-scumming way?

Eh, I think they're just different options. I've played utilizing a mix of horseback riding and climbing/gliding. Both have allowed me to find things that I wouldn't have likely found using the other traversal method.

Yep! Though I've been doing things the opposite way. I have a high-protection set that I wear at almost all times, but I change into other sets based on buffs. Last night I spent a ton of time in my cold resistance set just to climb mountains.

I wish this game had a loadout system, since I have various outfits I've matched and dyed for various purposes
Regular armor
Climbing gear
Cold gear
Hot gear
Hero of Time Cosplay
My "normal" gear is a brown Hylian Hood, the Hero of Twilight's Tunic and knight's pants painted tan.
You really get into it when you have some huge mountains to climb and you change up your gear. It feels so nice to think about Link wearing appropriate gear for climbing and the clothes match the part (white painted climbing hat, climbing shirt, snow boots, no sword/shield/bow equipped)
In hand with that, the ability to only call horses in range of you is so annoying. I get off my horse to check something out and usually end up very far away. At that point I'm like screw the horse I'm going on foot I guess...
I use horses specifically to traverse roads quickly. It seems that a lot of stuff is designed to happen around roads so it's a nice way to travel quickly without having to worry about steering. Found a lot of stuff I had missed by skipping the roads up to the Akkala tower.
You can sell prime gourmet meat for 100 rupees a piece to some guy at some stable. Can look it up where exactly if you want.
The one I mentioned is save scumming but you don't have to wander at all. It's a betting game, if you lose you just reload...There are only 3 options to choose from so every try you have a 1/3 chance to win 300 rupee.
Also you know the luminous stones ? They are fairly common in some areas. 10 of them can be exchanged for a diamond in Zora domain which goes for 500 rupee. But instead of doing that (unless you need a diamond) sell the stones as they go for 70 rupee netting you 700 instead of 500 if you were to trade it for a diamond and sell them.

THIS GAME IS SO GOOD.
I finally understand why people enjoy Souls games. I wanted to get all the climbing armor, but one of them requires defeating the MAJOR test of strength shrine. Which happens to be next-door to the moderate test shrine which I have been struggling with. Imagine my dread when I found out I had to defeat the major one. But I stuck with it, learned his patterns and finally defeated him. It was so satisfying. Then I went back and defeated the moderate one and it was a breeze!

that thing's real expensive but I could probably afford it if I sold the gorillion ore I'm hoarding. Is buying it the only way to get it?
Yea ofc, those are the times I would want a horse. Except in order to get one I have to go out of my way to a stable. Whistling to spawn one really should have been in there.
If you read the Journal of Various Worries in Impa's house there is a hilariously innuendo filled entry regarding Arrow lady :lol

If the hylian shield breaks who can fix it? Haven't been using it since I don't want to break it.
And that range is so short. It's annoying to be able to see the horse and be told Horsey McHorseface can't hear your call.

Is arrow lady the first canon divorced person in a Zelda game?
It's even stranger with Epona because Epona used to be able to hear noise from a grass whistle from the other side of a continent

I picked up about 1500 rupees yesterday in five minutes without even save scumming.
In the snowy region north east of Rito village (I believe) there's a snowball bowling game which awards 300 rupees for every strike after the initial win. If you start a bit to the right of the middle and throw back towards the left of the path you'll get a strike every time. I eventually stopped because clicking through the text gets pretty boring after a while.
I use horses traversing areas I've already been, but never to explore new areas - I think that's a good approach
I also enjoy the idea of finding an awesome horse - although the last one I suspect I did bucked me off several times and I couldnt tame it - is there a way around that?

Well, stables have shrines near them so getting to a stable ain't bad, and they're always on roads.
I mean, I get wanting the convenience of a magic horse, but I kinda like having the two modes of travel so clearly separated with each one having pros and cons.
Put a couple of hours into it. I've just been goofing around, haven't done the Impa quest yet.
+Game looks way better than I imagined. Obviously some of the textures are rather bland, but the colors are so vivid and the weather really has a distinct effect on each area.
+The shrines are so cool. You truly never know what you can encounter and you always get something interesting.
+Exploring is satisfying. I killed a wizrobe and took his fire rod. I found a colosseum with huge monsters and goo. I climbed a tower while dodging three separate guardians. I saw a comet crash down to earth. I got attacked by some Lizalfos in a river SINCE WHEN COULD THEY SWIM
-I feel like the buttons don't do what they should do. I really wish we could remap them. I get the LRs and Zs mixed up so often. Maybe I just need to get used to it and muscle memory will kick in, but there is a learning curve.

I wonder if you can alter some of the mini stories in the villages that don't trigger side quests (like the childs trying to figure out who the little girl in the lab is) or if this is just lore that doesn't change.
I had a run of like three in four shrines that used that stuff, including the one you're describing...so it's possible you'll have the same luck, though in my case I was warping back to Zora's Domain from around Lake Hylia and I forget if my string of

I was up in the snowy area trying to climb the tower when I realised it was surrounded by giant icicles that I couldn't get past. I've been carrying around a Fire Rod for hours, but of course I got rid of it at some point, and I didn't have any fire arrows. I did have normal arrows, firewood and flint, though, so I thought I'd start a fire then fire arrows through it. I got too close when I did it, though, and actually set my arrow on fire while I was still holding it in the bow, so I just kept 'dipping' my arrows in fire and firing them at the icicles
Now I'm wondering if I could have nocked an arrow, set it on fire, and then just walked up to the icicles and held the arrow up against them to melt them all without having to waste an arrow.
