I don't know about you but I have hundreds of ore on me which equals unlimited rupees. Do you guys not blow up every rock you see?
maybe they should have created another collectible like shrine orbs but for the side quests involving NPCs, I guess something like the friendship tokens from SS. I miss doing a side quest for something I want (heart piece, or bigger quill, etc) rather than just doing it to check something off a list which is what every other RPG does.
The truth is most side quests are quests only in name, their true purpose is that they get you to a point of interest, so I get that. They are directions in disguise. Still I want better prizes for my mini games.
I can easily say now that Breath of the Wild is the best gaming experience i've played in my adult life, the last time I remember being this, i'll say obsessed, with a game was when I was a teenager and got Goldeneye on the N64.
Hell, Zelda has stopped me playing playing Horizon and NioH on the PS4 Pro cold turkey and Overwatch on PC!
I was rather amazed (read horrified) when I saw that my wife and I have sunk over 90 hours in to it already! Bring on the next 90 hours!

It's cream.
Hey, me too. I've played Overwatch every day since it came out -- I haven't played it once since Zelda came out and I think that's a testament to how engrossing the game is. It's been a phenomenal experience and I still have so much more to do.

Got to my third great fairy and...not what i was expecting.
That's how I've been feeling for the past week. I must be getting seriously unlucky with the places I explore, because it's always just shrines and Korok seeds.
In search of the
Hyrule castle memory i decided to actually enter Hyrule casle...... DAMM. It's pretty much death from above with the amount of Guardians on the battlements. I definitely will watch speed-runs of this when i finish. Now back to the seemingly eternal search for Hebra Leviathan Bones and that random looking forest memory.
You need to upgrade the armour twice at a Great Fairy and only some of the full sets will have bonus abilities.
Failed Eventide due to one stupid mistake.
I killed myself on that island by dropping a rock on my own head, so your death couldn't have been that bad.
Watch Da Birdie
I buy cakes for myself on my birthday it's not weird lots of people do it I bet
That Leviathan quest was pretty neat...
Also I found a Tingle reference (and not the island)!!!
It was a great example of a good side-quest...the mission is just to find three places, but in doing so I found two shrines and a Fairy Fountain, plus ran into the Fire Dragon. Looked up where the ice one was, would never had found it, and once I knew what the skeletons looked like finding the other two on the map was easy...
Haven't cashed in the photos yet, but I had a lot of fun doing it. Also the sense of LORE makes me excited, now I want a Zelda with dinosaurs---like, ancient Hyrule. Call it "The Missing Link". Bam.

In Gerudo Village there's a cook-book written by an author who is a "pure" 35+ year old who is upset that they've yet to meet a fairy despite being so pure lol. The name is some weird anagram like a monk's name, should've remembered it to see if it's a meaningful name too.

Anyone have any advice for the tower to the right of death mountain that has a couple drones patrolling it and a bunch of purple goop up the tower making it impossible to climb? I saw an eye to shoot inside ruins up there but shooting it did nothing.

Is there any way to tell how much health one of your weapons has left?

Sadly most of the places outside the main towns is just that.
I went 15 hours where I did nothing but hit the edges of the map and like 80% of my time was repetitive stuff. Now I am back to main questing and it's way better. I feel personal pacing is important here since the game won't do it for you.

Omg the Warbler's Nest quest is ADORABLE.
No, not really. If it's perfect condition, there will be a twinkle on the top right of the icon and if it's about the break it will flash red (along with the message on screen) but otherwise there's no way to know just by looking at it.

God, selling a bunch of stuff and cooking multiple items is a pain in the ass and too time consuming.
Same location.

Sister sent me a new OoT Link Amiibo. Just got in mail today. I just beat BoTW yesterday. Don't know if I should open it considering how rare these got.
Beat the main story today after 85 hours, apparently I have only done 24,89% of the game, but it seems like Korok seeds count too much in that calculation. I have around 45 shrines left though 
Where exactly is
in Hyrule Castle? Felt like I went everywhere, but didn't find it.
A shield/sword combo that look pretty cool is the round
shield and the round spiky sword
. It looks like a big compass on Link's back.

It's in
the dungeon.
Too late, we already dived off that 200 ft cliff above Vah Ruta.

How would you guys feel if the sequel used the exact same map but with added towns, enemies, and some changes here and there. I really dig the map, and since it IS hyrule and the game will take place in hyrule Id like to see a graphical upgrade, better VA and story, etc but on the same general map.
I've had the Daybreaker shield for fucking ages, it's not breaking. So much for these shitty, brittle items.
It's a glitch, right? Maybe exit out and restart the console?
Getting close to the end now
I am proud of the amount of Shrines (92) and Korok Seeds (313) I have found so far without a guide. I only have the Gerudo desert left, then on to fight Ganon!
Gerudo desert is probably my favourite area of the game so far. It's the best desert setting in an open world game ever, and easily so.

Hmm, I've gotten armor from a couple sidequests and I would also count the shrine quests as side quests. They usually call for doing something cool in the environment and interacting with NPCs that give a reward that isn't always rupees.

It gets even more adorable when it's all done, the kids stand at the take off point overlooking Warbler's Nest adding birdsong to the Rito Village theme.

Note to self
Fire doesn't destroy chu jelly, it usually converts it to red chu jelly. Flame weapons and fire arrows are okay to use
Ice has a chance to destroy chu jelly. You need to freeze one jelly which will destroy it and create an ice cloud that can freeze the others. It you hit every thing with an ice arrow or ice weapon, youll be out of jelly

I think I broke a side quest. I am seriously stuck
Robbie's Research
I lit furnace with the blue flame before I saw Robbie since the getting the light up there cause many deaths I am not sure what went wrong but the robots store is open. Robbie has nothing to say but asking if I am Link. I can't get a dialog to tell him I got the furnace working

Everyone has the hots for Link. Princesses, fish people, workmen, great fairies, etc.
I've tried to just do the main quest, and I'm still having a bad time. I did the Rito dungeon and it sucked, I was devastated when I realized that it was just a collection of 5 unrelated puzzles in a line. I'm in the process of getting to the Zora dungeon, so far I've
run through a path only obstructed by Lizalfos, sat through an awful anime cutscene with the Zora girl, and pressed A against a waterfall so that I could climb up and kill another Lynel. Then I saw Tingel island in the distance and prayed that it would have something interesting, but it was just another shrine.

Take off your clothes
He is pretty dapper for his age.
Same goes if he's in drag. Does that one elicit fun replies outside of the desert region though?
I'm having a really weird problem while trying to hunt down the
in Tabantha.
What the heck.

I found them one night but it the sun rose as I was riding one away, now they don't seem to spawn near the maze at night but every once in a while a horse will just blink in and out of the game in front of me.
Thanks, I did go in there, but I didn't bother with the baddies etc. in that area for some reason.
and his diving skills truly show the great beauty of his soul.
I don't quite get the rupee complaints myself.
If you go to a mountain range, and break ore, you can get 2000+ rupees worth of ore in a few minutes. This isn't limited to Death Mountain, but any mountain will do, really. I burned around 2000 rupees on armor set, left to a mountain shrine, broke some rocks in a few minutes, came back and burned another 2000 rupees on another armor set.
Maybe people don't know how good the hammer is for breaking ore safely? It's one of the first tips you get if you follow the somewhat guided storyline.
Handsome, rugged mountain man and swordsman who is built like a bishounen. In all honesty it was weird that more people in-game didn't have the hots for Link before. lol

I have 52 seeds after only 18 shrines. I need to find more shrines. Seeds are everywhere. Everywhere! You can barely go from one end of a field to the other without stumbling onto two or three.
