Yeah I wish we currently could turn the full heart invincibility off. I haven't faced Ganon yet but I hope he's the exception (don't spoil). You're probably right that it's being saved for hard mode.
Same with when a guardian shoots you 5 times quickly but you only take damage from the first hit!
What is ice's mortal enemy?
The inventory for cooked food is huge right now. I meant more to the point of having like 5-10 cooked slots at most.

Forget that. Imagine a Lynel riding a pony.

No quest afaik. It is indestructible but there are some caveats. You'll know once you get it.
I'd find it funnier if they were doing their usual patrolling routine but just four or five of them were patrolling around a small campfire, going in a circle.
The juxtaposition of their serious AI vs. the comical sight of five Lynels walking in a tight circle, would be far funnier. Also terrifying.
I have no idea if two Lynels would even "possible" (ie. not requiring immense luck) to fight, let alone five of them. They are hyper aggressive, and have both ranged and melee capabilities. I'd harken this to trying to hunt two Rathalos at the same time in a tight arena in MH, but where the Rathalos didn't just spend half of the time in idle animation looking at you.
My logic was that running out of health has you retry a section, while running out of stamina downright locks you out of making certain climbs or glides. Then again you could probably make do by cooking recovery items, anyway, but making and consuming them takes time.
Finally beat my fourth and final divine beast, so I'll probably be heading into Hyrule Castle soon. I'm thinking about doing a self-enforced no-upgrades run sometime after I finish this one, but was wondering if there's a way to have two separate saves or if I'd eventually lose one of them after the saveslot queue gets filled up with new saves that push the old ones out?

I'm pretty sure starting a new game on the same account deletes your old files.
Oh gotcha. That makes sense. Its something like 50 or 60 spaces now, right?

It has to be a major overhaul. I can't see any reason to slog through the shrines, dungeons, or Ganon again just with higher damage. Most things killed me in one or two hits anyway so it isn't like enemy strategy is going to be any different.

Lynel perched up on an elevated platform standing watch at a camp...
Lynel abruptly popping up from the ground with a plant on its head...
An enormous swarm of tiny Lynel in T-poses descending on you like Keese...
Straight faced. Every time.

While they're adding a hard mode they should add multiple save files.
Due to their ranged AI, they'd not be in a T-pose. All of them would be arming Shock Arrows...
The horror.
Weak... Then again, guess all I've got to do is use a separate profile, right?
game works shockingly well on portable mode, this is coming from someone that hated playing Ocrina of Time on 3DS or any 3d action game on Vita. The joycons were low on battery (do they come out out of the box or something?) so I switched to portable and kinda just forgot I was playing it handheld, I was just... playing it.
how do you cook anyway? Ive ran across some fires, one of them even had pot (outside a shack that talked about a cold tunic or something) but I couldnt interact with it. I need me some stamina food damn it

It would be scary that once they detect sound from your direction, all four will simultaneously look at your direction and will simultaneously turn to which way you're running.

Go to menu, hold the materials (5 is the maximum) and once you're near the pot, an option to cook will appear.

I think you hold the record so far for most time on this game. lol
I might reach that by the end of next month the way i'm playing.

Oh God. You're right. It's over.
is this explained in the game and I just missed it?
The game could be a lot harder. When I first started playing I thought it was pretty brutal but when you learn the combat you become OP. The difference between first play though me running terrified from a stationary guardian to 2nd playthrough me parrying it with a pot lid is immense.
You can create another gamer profile if you are in Switch at the system level. Changing profiles takes about 20 seconds and each has its own save.
I don't remember if it's ever taught. I just learned it early by manipulating the menu.
This is not ideal by any means.
Yeah, some Shrine are just hard to find makes me really glad that I brought the guide other wise I would have been so lost trying to look for it with the locator going "woof woof woof."
Nah it's Link iconic look, he will have the traditional green tunic in the next game.

Go into the menu and select a food, have Link hold it, he can hold up to 5 items, then press B and press A to cook the food.
Link can only cook near a pot, he can't cook with a campfire*.
*Well actually he can but the food will be roasted and won't unlock any extra benefit if they come with one.

Thing is as long as parries and reflects are in it can't be any harder really. I mean the game leaned into those things so hard because they wanted to promote the fight Ganon first crap but it ended up making the entire game's difficulty curve pretty much nonexistent.

Hard Mode is just you and 20 silver Lynels in a tiny room. Your weapons are: pot lid, mop
Enjoy

It isn't, you're supposed to learn it yourself, kinda like how you should learn how to dodge and fight by yourself as well (although
there is a shrine somewhere (don't remember the name anymore) that teaches you these combat basics
After having several NPCs talk about how all the cool kids sneak into the castle for loots I decided to take a peek.
Well, the enemies are easy enough to deal with, but the stats of the loot and just the atmosphere of the place makes me feel I'm doing things out of order and shouldn't be here, lol. (I'm only 2 beasts down!)
Anyone else go to Hyrule Castle "early" without an intention of finishing the game?

I went in looking for recipes, then I made a hard-boiled egg and left.
I went back after a few beasts and looted the place... but still not sure about those recipes the NPC hints about.
Hm I found Rudania to be the easiest overall. I guess the boss had more of a quirk but it was simple to figure out.
Ruto was toughest just because it was my first
and that one bit with the waterfall took me way too long to figure out.
I actually felt a bit burned a while back... then I went to the Gerudo region for the first time.
I think I accumulated such an incredible amount of time because most of the time I don't use fast travel and instead uses the stables and horses.
Like, I spent a lot of time in the Gerudo region and then insteado of fast traveling to Akkala to check the town there I just go on horse and on the way get sidetracked noticing new secrets.
I think I only have like 250-300 korok seeds and everytime I go back to an area I feel like I already explore I found something new... like last night when I encountered this big skelleton boss for the first time on the Faron region O_O
Maybe part of why I found the Rito dungeon the easiest was because I had done the Zora one prior and that made it seem relatively easy. It could also matter when you get to them and what gameplay mechanics you've had to use in puzzles in the world. The limited movement of the bird made the dungeon feel easy to me but I guess if its first and you get there early you'll feel differently.
I didn't consider how the approach to doing events in different orders really matter. Really like that they did that with the game
It'd at least have to be an unbreakable mop!

I found the Rito and Zora dungeons to both be the same level of simplicity the Rito one just had an even lazier lead-in. The Goron dungeon was easiest by far it just had the more involved approach sequence. Gerudo had the best lead-in quest and the most complex, in comparison anyway, dungeon of the bunch. To be fair, they're all probably just as simplistic as one another if you're not actually picking up the treasure chests.
I went in early to get some of the side content in there. Most of which can be found super easy in a rather linear fashion aside from 1 thing. The game pretty much wants you to head in there early. It's too streamlined and simplistic for that not to be their intention.

The old man on the plateau certainly taught me how to cook. Perhaps it's rather easy to miss the dialogue, since people bring this up a lot, but he specifically details it during your hunting/cooking "tutorials," for me after reading his diary in his cabin iirc.
It seems like a lot people completely skipped the old man appearing all over the plateau as you explore-- as you speak with him in various spots, he teaches you all sorts of stuff in regards to basic mechanics of the game. It's a nice way to avoid forcing a tutorial on people, I guess.
If I am not mistaken, the quick tips during loading will tell you this, cooking and holding items.
Also some NPCs or notes found will tell you this
By the way I'm like, 30 hours later and I still don't know how to solve this issue.
It's such a small little thing but I'm still annoyed by it lol.
The statues you pray at? That's weird. That never happened to me.

I liked the great white bird one, haha. Still haven't figured out the heart one...
Not quite, it's the little statues with the apples in front of them. The regular goddess statues are fine (and cute).
Yeah, this is the first I've head of such a thing. What shrines are you talking about? They've been replaced by the... frog statue things? Any pics?
the lyrics are the directions!
