Wow that reminds me of Homer falling down Springfield Gorge.
Also the fairies are just prolonging Link's suffering here, how cruel.

It's kind of annoying I don't see any lower level lynels anymore. Wish I could own some with my upgraded self.
There is one red maned Lynel that never goes away no matter how long you've been playing.
It's the one in
Zora's Domain
So now that I've cleared all four Divine Beasts, here's my personal ranking for each main quest sequence:
-Goron
-Zora
-Gerudo
-(This section intentionally left blank)
-Rito
Was anyone else as disappointed with the Rito quest as I was? It felt very anemic and undercooked compared to the other three.

Reposting these hoping for a reply if anyone has a chance.

So on an entirely different note, after seeing you guys talking about the Three Trees at times and not figuring out what to do with them ourselves, we looked up what you do. And...I'm really glad we did. I can safely say I not ever would have figured out there was a puzzle there or what to do with them. The website we landed on had a whole list of the Korok Puzzles (warning autoplay review):

Koroks are hidden within natural objects. Pay particular attention to small rock formations at the top of mountain peaks, or whatever location that particularly stands out. At the same time, Koroks may be hidden within ice blocks you must melt, underneath a rock slab that must be lifted by an Octo balloon, behind destructible rocks and pots and more.
Wait so like... there are ones you need
Octo balloons
lift the rock slabs with stasis? If I'm thinking of the same ones (like there's a lot like this around the Faron tropical area) you can just get them with stasis. Maybe these are different ones though?
I'm not sure I follow what they mean by
"pay attention to small rock formations."
(YELLOW CIRCLE) Boulders: Large boulders must be moved away in order to uncover Korok. Sometimes the builders are located at the top of a hill and must be rolled off a cliff to complete the puzzle. Cast Stasis on the builder and hit the builder to give it enough force to start rolling. A variation of the Boulders puzzle involves metallic boulders. Use Magnesis to arrange the metal boulders.
So...we have like 100+ Korok seeds and I don't understand which ones he's referring to. You get a Korok for
rolling a boulder?
)PURPLE CIRCLE) Circle: Objects arranged in a circle, most often as rock formations jutting from water, actually form a sort of target for Link to aim at. Your goal is to throw a rock into the circle. Take a Korok once you hit the bullseye. Variations of the puzzle involve other circle formations over water, such as water lilies.
The
lillies
jump in those from up high.
throwing a rock in a circle.
rock formations in water
(RED TRIANGLE) Race / Horse Hurdles: If you find a tree stump with a leaf symbol, hop on the stump to begin a race. Race through a ring before the countdown ends. Sometimes, the puzzle will feature a series of fences that you must jump over while riding a horse. Complete the objective before time runs out to get your Korok.

ring ones we've seen.
horse ones, though.

This is my money maker right here. Gonna kill these over and over, salvage their parts and SELL SELL SELL!!!

Chopping off their legs and watching them flounder about is sweet, sweet redemption, considering all the hell they've put me through.

You'd have them all in 3 days without touching your Switch's date. You could get them all in 1 day if you adjusted the Switch's date.
I've never gotten horse koroks and I'm at 470.

Found a pretty cool one involving magnesis yesterday
Got a new shrine yesterday, one I had passed by in Hebra but somehow got distracted, (probably by a dragon) and forgot to go back to it. 112, with one memory to go so I can get the one by Kakariko. But still 7 to go :/
Terms of water koroks
there's the water lily ones you got and also ones where 4 rocks form a small diamond and you throw a regular rock (there's always plenty nearby) inside it.
Boulders you
push them and they have to roll into a hole the size of the Boulder, which is just below it).
Found a pretty cool one involving magnesis yesterday
there were three little metal rocks, two on top of rocks by a river and a third one tied by a chain to another Boulder underwater. You just have to put the third Boulder on top a third rock in a triangle shape but the length of the chain makes it tricky so I couldn't figure it out the first time.

I've no idea, I don't want to look anything up online.. yet. But I'm pretty sure one should be a

Ha I found that korok puzzle one yesterday too. I used stasis + magnesis to solve it
Treat it like a newbie mechanic. Turn it off if you want more of a challenge. Options in games that allow a player to toggle is never a bad thing. You only have yourself to blame if you sneak during the night and eat cookies, not whoever made the cookies.
I've only done Zora and Rito, and although the payoff on Rito is good, I stopped playing for a couple days, thinking the game was just okay. I've come back last night and have been having a lot more fun ignoring dungeon stuff for now. Stoked for the next to towns. Rito village totally felt simple and not in a good way.
Guessing you've already beaten it by now, but:
Took me a while to get through this. From what I've gathered, the available options are:
- Flurry
- Parry laser, don't know if you can parry the melee ones
- Daruk's Brotection
- Urbosa's Fury
- Using Gale or the fire updraft to slow-mo attack with arrows just as he attacks and drops the shield momentarily, I think this should stun him as well but haven't tested.
Parrying the laser ought to be the easiest one to do, alas, I had no idea you could even parry Guardian lasers at this point, haha.

I thought that one was pretty neat. While it's probably doable without it, when it clicked I could use
Stasis on one end of the boulder chain
As far as I know:
Mounting or seeing the special mounts
Your house + Tarry Town questline
Getting dragon items
Getting all fairies

How do you see how many side quests you are missing?
Oh that's neat. I wonder how many people's first instinct is to
hit the orb with the sword
I guess defeating Ganon triggers the stats in the map if you open the savegame

Last night I used an online map to find my last 4 evasive shrines last night. Three were very close to shrines I has already completed and one was near a river outlet that somehow I bypassed after roughly 130 hours of running around. I received the reward for shrine completion and upgraded some parts with stuff that happened to be in my inventory.
This morning I started the game again on a new profile. I'm not ready to be done.

Is there a way to tell how many sidequests and shrine quests are in the game?

Yeah I tried that on the Goron boss. It did not go well...
Yes, that was def one of the trickiest shrines. And it felt great to find out the solution.
Right? The gameworld itself invites curious and creative play. Every time I play I have fun, but it's rarely in the way I set out to do so.

Same. It's one of the things I love about it. The game constantly surprises.

so why don't all games use it? or any for that matter
I saw "horse korok"... I'd like to avoid spoilers, but is it koroks you can only find when you're riding a horse, or a puzzle related to horses?
I may have an idea
but I'm never on a horse... :/
I may have an idea
I thought the targets for example could be a puzzle, but I haven't managed to trigger anything on foot
Why playmaker controls aren't more common? I won't speak about RE4, but quality, success and usage can be three really different things.
Don't feel bad, I also didn't realise that either mostly because I thought that it wouldn't work due the boss floating in the air but I did know that I needed to do something either while it was charging or after it has fired its attack.
Personally I think that they did a bad job telegraphing that
you could throw bomb and it would get sucked up.
Instead of feet horses have?
Well in the area around there, they do introduce a new octorock type..

It's a Korok puzzle that you can't solve without a horse.

I finished the game at around 80 hours, with about 80 shrines done and all divine beasts and I'm still playing it daily. I now did all shrines and found about 300 Korok seeds and am trying to max out my equipment. The game just remains extremely inviting to play even after 120-ish hours. Even though I dont quite place it at the top of Zelda games, it;s by far the one I ve put the most time in in such a short period of time. They really nailed the game-feel moreso than other Zelda's, which always had somewhat stiff-feeling controls (ALBW, Zelda II and SS excluded).
