[BOTW] Just thought I would share a neat little tip for people like me with bad memories.

Posted: 20 Apr 2017 08:17 AM PDT

I was having trouble remembering which ingredients I needed to track down for the armor upgrades, when I remembered the Switch (sorry, Wii U players) has a handy little screenshot button. Simply talk to a Great Fairy and screenshot the requirements for any armor you can't upgrade yet! Viewing your gallery takes no more time than opening a menu in-game.

Trying to think of other ways to use this feature. Maybe taking a screenshot of an important spot, and then of the map where it's located? For instance, find cool weapon, screenshot, mark map, screenshot.

Anyone else use screenshots for gameplay purposes?

Who else got into this series initially thinking they would hate it?

Posted: 19 Apr 2017 10:17 PM PDT

I should preface this by saying that this story happened a looong time ago when I was a young kid, but my introduction to this series was kind of a weird one... I was wondering if anyone else had a similar experience.

When I was about 9 years old, I had a Nintendo 64 and loved it. Mario 64 was the game that convinced me I wanted the console and it was great, loved Goldeneye, loved playing Mario Kart with friends. I had a subscription to a monthly Nintendo magazine which would contain reviews, news about upcoming games etc. With the internet still being limited back then, this monthly magazine was my main source of gaming news. I loved seeing previews of future games that looked cool, like the upcoming Super Smash Bros.

But I also remember seeing this game called Zelda pop up in the magazine, and it was taking up increasing amounts of page space with every monthly issue. 9-year-old me thought it looked like the stupidest thing ever, and I'd always skip over it to the next page to see the actual good games, like Buck Bumble or Banjo Kazooie. I began to despise this stupid "Zelda" game. "Who wants to play as a dumb little girl elf with a stupid little sword and a fairy?", thought 9-year-old me. I became increasingly annoyed at seeing this game pop up all the time, and when I found out this green-clothed "Zelda" elf-girl would end up in Smash Bros too alongside my favourite Nintendo characters, 9-year-old me rolled my eyes and couldn't believe that they were going to taint a game as awesome as Smash Bros with this shit.

My mother used to rent me N64 games occasionally from the local video rental store, as a nice surprise after school. They were usually pretty fun and were a nice new thing to play for a couple days before we returned it. One afternoon after school, I jumped in her car and she surprised me with a new rental game. I was super excited. Which game had she brought home this time?

It was Ocarina of Time.

Although I was (somewhat) grateful that she went out of her way to at least rent a new game for me, I was so confused and upset. I couldn't believe Mum had just wasted a few dollars renting this stupid game that has been taking up page space in my Nintendo magazines. "Why did you pick this one?" I asked. "This is that game where you play as a stupid fairy elf girl with a dumb sword! Can't you swap it for another game? Please take it back!"

"Well I asked the man at the video shop if he could recommend me any good games for my son, and he told me this one just came out recently and it's very popular", she said. "He told me everyone loves it and wants to play it - as soon as it gets returned, someone else rents it out within the hour, so we were lucky to get it when we did. Just give it a go! You never know until you try it!".

I agreed to at least try it, if only so I could confirm what I already knew: this game sucked, but at least by giving it a go, I could prove to Mum that I wouldn't like it. At least then, maybe I'd be able to convince her to take it back to the rental store and swap it over for another, better game.

Despite going in with a bias, the game had already pulled me in by the Deku Tree. I was surprised to learn that "Zelda" was in fact not Zelda at all, and was actually not "some fairy elf girl", but a boy named Link. The game was amazing and I found it captivating in a way I'd never experienced before up until that point. I just didn't want to stop playing. Whatever stupid impressions I'd formed about this game beforehand suddenly went out the window and I found myself wanting to play more. I kept getting Mum to renew the rental, even though it was a popular game that was only supposed to be out on a 1-3 day lease. She continually renewed it for over 2 weeks, and I got up to Jabu Jabu's belly in that time before she decided she'd be better off just buying me the game.

Soon I had a shiny, pristine new boxed copy of Ocarina of Time in my hands. I couldn't believe I finally had my very own copy of the game. I eagerly opened the box and gave the brand new cartridge and manual a good whiff, to take in that new game smell. I was a little bit bummed out that I had to start over and do the Deku Tree/Dodongo's cavern all over again, but I got through them much faster the second time round.

Aaaaand the rest is history. It quickly went on to become my favourite N64 game and I loved it to bits. I ended up getting Majora's Mask too on the year it released and loved that one too - it was a little different from Ocarina but I really liked the darker tone and eerie atmosphere. Legend of Zelda ended up becoming my favourite franchise in gaming from then on, and I've eagerly awaited every new mainline game in the series since then.

[BoTW] Showerthought: Cosplaying Link is a lot easier with this game.

Posted: 19 Apr 2017 05:58 PM PDT

You can literally go in a pair of compression shorts, with a Sheikah Slate phone case, a pot lid and a ladle. Easiest cosplay ever!

[BoTW] Has anyone tried modding

Posted: 20 Apr 2017 08:52 AM PDT

It seems as though it should be easy enough on the Wii U version, and it would be fun if someone added stuff like more missions, new items/recipes, etc.

[BoTW] Why are Wizrobes machines of death and destruction in this game?

Posted: 20 Apr 2017 08:17 AM PDT

Upon my first foot off the Great Plateau I met a Wizrobe that rained meteor down upon me when I tried to shoot it... Coupled that with the hard-to-hit thing it's quite a problem. Are they supposed to be this hard?

OOT's soundtrack has not a single song that sucks

Posted: 19 Apr 2017 11:49 PM PDT

I often listen now and then to the soundtrack of all the Zelda games. And we all know that OOT has one of the best collection of memorable songs. So I was going through this soundtrack playlist recently and realised, that all the songs are great. NOT A SINGLE ONE SUCKS. Like literally.

Of course, if you played this game as a child, you will most likely agree, cause you also have all these super memorable themes in your head. But I think, we can all say that this soundtrack has aged really well and is still one of the greatest video game soundtrack today listening to. I mean, I even dig the Ice Cavern theme.

And this is just another example, what makes this game propably the greatest of all time. Just having all this super memorable songs and themes for specific areas, situations or soundeffects, which also sound musically fantastic, makes this game a masterpiece.

[BOTW] Help with 100%

Posted: 20 Apr 2017 06:20 AM PDT

Dear Reddit,

I am having problems with completing the game 100%. This is what I've done already: All Korok Seeds All Shrines All Divine Beasts Now I'm at 99.75% and I've got three more locations to discover. I used a "waypoint map" or whatever and I found the three last undiscovered locations. One is on top of the resurrection shrine, Two is Kilton's shop directly above Rito Village, and Three is on the North-West side of the Great Plateau. But all three don't exist or save.

Is there a secret way or something or should I just stop?

[BoTW] TIL you can change the element of chuchu jelly with elemental arrows and weapons

Posted: 19 Apr 2017 05:45 PM PDT

I just learned this by accident when the ground near some fresh dropped chuchu jelly caught fire and change it to red chuchu jelly. That is so cool and useful!

I wonder if this also works with keese wings and lizalfos tails...
