If it doesn't involve motion controls it's better for me already. Also
that's where the horse customisation was 
Charge at him when he's charging that and circle strafe
You can also just run around it.
Don't even have to dash, it's really slow.

You've still got 60 shrines to find!
(I'm talking to crimson link here)
I've got another 68 to be exact lol. Maybe when DLC hits and finishing all the shrines actually unlocks something worthwhile instead of just warp points.

Been just beelining the towers cause I'm sick of looking at a spotty map, currently got 3 areas left to map 2 towers I have marked.
Woo Yes!! I took it out. I perfect parried the hell out of it. I got hit plenty times though when it like charged at me. I lost 3 of my 1 handed weapons.
God, this game is amazing. That was hands the toughest sword fight in any Zelda game I've ever played. I can't wait to see what hard mode is.

Finishing them all does unlock something. May not be worthwhile to you personally though.

People need to stop with Sterling's review, it was his experience, after reading his review I personally think he wasnt able to convey that experience but in the end thats the score he deemed appropriate after playing the game.
Its pathetic to care about it beyond that or even feel that his review detracts from your experience. Reminds me of the infamous 8.8 or the people crying or saying how angry they were after that one Uncharted 4 review or the embarrassing reactions to Destructoid's Uncharted 3 review and I could go on, its time to stop .

Really? It was my favorite. Actually the only one I really liked. Also stuff before entering on it was very good. Awesome soundtrack.
lynel bows are the real prizes in those fights.
I don't think Zelda is beyond reproach. If you are genuinely annoyed by stamina meters and such, I can see you give it a seven. I'd say it's a shame that you cant enjoy what's in front of you, but I hold similar opinions for games like Witcher 3, which other people onsider masterpieces. But I consider the closest game type to Zelda the Bethesda open world games, and if you give Fallout 4 a 9.5 and Zelda a 7, you went so far through crazy town that you looped all across the universe and came back into crazy town. That or he's trolling. Knowing Jim's persona, I'm guessing he's basking in the hate now.
Anyway, I'll let it rest there to agree to disagree.

Can I still explore the world after beating Ganon?
Yeah.
I'm 20+ hours in and have done 11 shrines. 34 Korok seeds. No dungeons. Haven't even been to a town yet!

It's actually perfectly reasonable to compare his thoughts on BotW to other open world games he's reviewed. Your comparisons fall completely flat, as I don't think anyone in this topic really cares about the number he gave the game and no one has even come remotely close to melting down.
Nobody's angry here though.

It isn't considering that the unlock
has the worst Link's tunic as a reward and it of all things powers up the MS beam.

To add, I like that every
terminal you activate on a guardian, the music in the dungeon adds a specific part to it. Its the small details...
I agree. It has been 10 days since release date and people have already formed their opinions about the game. A review that shows up 10 days later is just going to be glanced over, nothing more. Now, if his review came out on review day then that would have been a completely different story.
They all do that. Also you're crazy.
Yeah, no problem discussing the contents of a review good or bad. It's nothing outrageous!

That is good to hear. It will be better for one not to work out than for all four to be like that. It was not too far from being good. It just didn't come together well. Yes, you could say unfinished feeling.

Alright, there's still like four regions I haven't really combed through as much, but I think I'm going to make the trek to Hyrule Castle.
Weapons check, good amount of guardian weapons.
Armor sets upgraded to at least have set bonuses check.
At least a dozen of full recovery food dishes check.
Oh wait, I should buy more Guardian arrows with my remaining stock.

Sometimes they activate something nearby. Look around for balloons to pop.
That's how I'm playing. Prefer it to the Wii U Pad
go near then then a bunch of target balloons pop up and you have to hit them with arrows or basically pop them in any way to reveal a korok
They're an indication of an
archery related korok puzzle. Most will have balloons, others won't and you have to look at the scenery to see if there's something you can shoot, like an apple in a tree or something similar

Guys guys, I need help
I am 55 hours into the game and this is what my map looks like:
I made the flower girl rage
That shit was hilarious
Have you done any dungeons yet?
Man I'm jealous that you can experience going to those regions for the first time. I only have 4 unexplored areas and I dont want it to end

Watching Jim's videos on Watch dogs 2 and Horizon he seems to love their open world's.
What do they do better than Zelda? It's been the most refreshing game I've played for years

I'm not. I'm taking my sweet time with it and I'm loving it. 50+ hours and only one dungeon + less than half of the map.

I need some help with a Gerudo side quest:
I'm trying to complete the Finding Barta side quest. The soldiers in the barracks say that she is near the leviathan bones searching for a fairy fountain. I've scoured those bones, the shrine, and the fountain, but I can't find her anywhere. Am I missing something?
I have four towers activated including the great plateau. I've still seen nothing. I did play through Hyrule castle though, nabbed all the treasure I could find.
It feels like Minecraft to me, experimental and exploratory. I'm just wandering lost all the time.
She should be standing at the mouth of the bones.
