I agree with you. It's the people that seem to think he should have his platform taken away from him that I find unreasonable.

|OT3| Paragliding into ya DMs like
I had the game momentarily freeze while getting a spirit orb. The screen faded to black and stayed that way for like 20 seconds. I had to go back to the Switch dash then back. Got scared for a sec. Happened on handheld.

For the gerudo dungeon
Either way awesome xD
I did the last authenticated slate for the dungeon, then one where you have to give electricity to two poles to open the door. I used a ball for one, and a trail of metal swords, shields and even a treasure chest lol and it worked. That was awesome
But was that the right way (as in, was there another way), or did I cheat my own way to it

Everything else in the game does including loot and mobs. I do think the bosses are a little easier so I'm not actually sure about this.

I'm not sure this is true, if only because I had like 80 shrines done by the time I did the Goron area and I was able to take off half its health in a single cycle while barely trying.
Um, because only one of those opinions respects the other? I'm sure you think you're making a great point here, but it's nonsense. You're arguing for hughesta's right to have an opinion, when their opinion is literally "Jim's opinion is wrong."
What is the maximum number of (real) hearts and circles you can get via shrines? Is there a choice involved (meaning you have to choose between one or the other)?
Also, the game keeps giving me hints that someone
that isn't a goddess can gives you heart
Is it really useful to pay to sleep, seeing how a simple recipe like 1
max durian
max radish (?)
It's good but too long I guess.
How about: "Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild |OT2| 97 -thanks Jim!"
At the end of the day it's driving attention toward him and what he does. You'd be surprised how much positivity can be derived from controversy for the source of said controversy.
Maybe he just like games more story driven because I remember that Ori didn't clicked with him at all he said.
Oh well whatever.
But maybe he just enjoyed Horizon more. Personally I'm enjoying both games about the same. They both offer very different things. The two games aren't really anything alike outside of sporting an open world design.
But to shun him or his opinion seems a bit harsh. Like some in the thread have said. His experience mirrors theirs. The game has a 97 on meta and will most assuredly take home many GOTY awards.
His review, especially coming this late means jack shit to anyone honestly.
He said that he respects his opinion when that is clearly not the case and "absurd" is a weird word to use for a 2.5 difference in score for a videogame.
You're absolutely right, I'll refrain from commenting on this any further.

There's
a second ball. You are not the first person I've seen who cheesed it like this, it's easy to get turned around and not realize you haven't been in the room with the second ball.

Oh yeah that's pretty ridiculous
Maybe the gerudo boss is just a lot harder than all the other ones, because even with a triple attack boost, barbarian gear and the master sword it took a lot of hits to kill him (like, 4-5x as many as the other bosses and I used weaker weapons against those..)

By the way is there no way to stash items you don't necessarily need at the time but don't want to sell or because your inventory is full? For example my armor tab is getting pretty crowded. Will I just be able to have unlimited armors then?
the review thread is closed, and I think it's better to not make a new thread, things can get a bit ugly knowing some Zelda fans.

I have the Wind Waker Toon Link Smash ammino, is he supposed to give me a classic costume or only the newer toon link amiibo? I've scanned about five times , I just get materials and a bow.

Is it just me or is the shrine music changing?
50th percentile is not bad - it's average. It's okay to be average.
Didn't know a 60 came in but I knew when you said that it had to be Slant Magazine. I've never disagreed with a publication more across every game then them and I also can not stand their prose in their reviews.
A 2.5 pt difference is a 5.5 vs an 8. Its definitely a large amount.

I don't care about the score personally, but I'd call it absurd too from what I read. Just my opinion though.
97 is still outstanding though. Life's too short to get worked up over this kind of nonsense folks.
What's this?

Yeah I'm not sure. I've definitely found wolves so far, but I haven't been able to befriend them...because they just wanna kill me instead.
Wolf Link amiibo will spawn him though. I haven't used him yet, I'm kind of tempted to.
Yeah I find it hard to believe. The last boss I fought (the one in the Gerudo area) got stomped really hard.
Really do you have a screenshot ? Because I can't find anything about taming animals or just the dog 😢

You cannot max both hearts and stamina, one will always be slightly lower. The full stamina bar is three extra layers, the full hearts are like two rows of 15.
The hint you're talking about is
a statue near/in Hateno Village that a kid near the entrance gate can lead you to. You can sell your heart and stamina containers to it for 100 rupees, and then buy them back in whatever form you want (ie, sell two heart containers and then buy two stamina containers) for 120 rupees each. It essentially lets you "respec" Link or make the game harder for yourself if you want.
According to metacritic, the 'average' score is 70, not 50.

So the feature is locked behind Amiibo use? :-/
Armor is unlimited. There is a side quest that will give you storage in a fixed world location for an additional 3 weapons, 3 bows and 3 shields. It's not much, but it's something I guess.

Amiibo chests are completely random spawns. Classic gear (armor & weapons) are on the rare side of the spectrum.
Fighting moblins can sometimes result in the worst frame drops in the game and even full screen freezes. It's really not acceptable.
For example to be seen in the Screenshot thread. It even has its own health pool.

Speaking of cheesing that part, you can even simply hop the fence the terminal is behind using Revali's Gale.

Just Wolf Link specifically, just that skin.
I've seen some people say that giving them raw meat works. You might have to sneak up on them.
They scale in the order you do them in

I've found the first moment where I was disappointed that Nintendo failed to account for something in the environmental interaction in this game. I was going on a path through a tropical-ish location when I stumbled upon two sisters being attacked by monsters. After saving them, I found out from them that they were searching for hearty truffles. One sister just wanted to go home, but the other sister said that they couldn't go home until they found some truffles. I happened to have some truffles on hand and so decided to drop them in front of them to see what kind of reaction they'd have. Turned out there was no reaction. This seems like an obvious oversight; surely there should be some kind of reaction from the sisters, even if it's just "it doesn't mean anything unless we find the truffles ourselves!"

Yeah. Each boss has been more challenging than the last, the third in particular kicked my ass. It might have just been the order I chose.
I was taking about the definition of 50th percentile.
C's get degrees
Totally forgot that thread gonna check thanks
Because everyone buys and plays games at the exact same time

Those two appear all over the world getting attacked by Bokoblins, and they usually just serve as an indicator that truffles are nearby.
The one (well, two) times I got disappointed in a lack of interaction was when the game wouldn't let me ride
wooly rhinos or moose.
