Love it but worried

Posted: 02 Jan 2018 09:15 AM PST

So i got my Switch over the holiday an picked up BotW with the season pass (Bestbuy Canada the the $30 pass for free with purchase).

I really can't fault the game game, other than shit breaking getting a little tiresome. But i do have one issues, is anyone else scared of missing stuff?

The world is no rich and amazing but it seems so easy to miss content. It was only by chance that i even found the Korok guy to trade in seeds.

Genuinely worried i could miss something important is there anything that like that or is it all doable later?

No spoilers please.

Also..maybe im doing parrying wrong but I've only even got the combo hit in once the rest of the time it hits me or i just jump. Cant get the shield parry down either. Watching videos of people shield parrying guardians and i cant even shield parry a club.

Link isn’t the best at Motocross, but he has a killer three point shot.

My 2017 New Year's Resolution: Complete all Zelda games in one year! What's your ranking? (Mine is inside)

Botw smash 4 additions

Posted: 02 Jan 2018 07:31 AM PST

My ideas for possible dlc...

Items: Ice rod- bludgeoning item that shoots gust of wind that freezes ppl for a few seconds. Breaks if you hit ppl with it a few times though

Paraglider- hold a to float down slowly when airborne

Shiekah slate- press a to unleash time stop chains directly in front of you. Stops ppl for a few seconds. Hiting them influences their trajectory and distance launched after they are freed

Assist trophies: mipha- brings damage to zero one time while canceling the launch of a heavy attack at high damage(closest thing I can think to being resurrected)

Daruk- red shield stuns(no damage) anyone that hits you up to 3 times

Urbosa- for up to two times, when the user performs a smash attack, lightning hits the ground around them for additional damage and stun to any nearby

Link: Up b- spin attack. Less damage and launch power than standard link. Grass is cut around him, random food recovery items appear

Neutral b- arrows that cycle thru normal, fire, ice, electric, very rare chance of bomb arrow

Forward b- lizal tri boomerang.when thrown, Goes thru ppl rather than bouncing off. Flies faster than toon link. Same or less damage per hit

Down b- remote bomb. Won't detonate until you press down b a second time. More damage to make up for only using one at a time. No fire element

Final smash: Divine beasts- each beast shoots a beam in a cutscene. Beams create an X on the field, dealing heavy damage to any who touch it except link

... One can dream. What do you guys think??

What are the Divine Beasts called in Japanese? In German they are called Titans.

Posted: 02 Jan 2018 09:22 AM PST

Played Breath of the Wild in English but did some comparison to German, since both languages have been translated directly from Japanese. So that's pretty interesting.

Now I wonder what the most fitting translation from Japanese would be. I like "Titans" much much better, sounds much more imposing and more like you would call such things in real life.

Has anyone seen the Zelda Culture Fly box at Walmart? It's actually pretty cool.

My husband took the switch and BOtW on deployment. I was so far in the game and had so many collected items!

Thinking of buying another and restarting but when I think of everything on my saved game .. well, shit.

Why I think Nintendo should make the Majora's Mask equivalent to Breath of the Wild

Posted: 02 Jan 2018 03:13 AM PST

So I am not the first to make the point that Nintendo could utilize the engine of BotW to create a sequel much like the engine for OoT was reused to create Majora's Mask.

In this post I will try to make a point for Nintendo to take this approach for a sequel to BotW. However, I want to go a bit further and argue that the central mechanic in Majora's Mask, being the three day time cycle, could take the BotW mechanics to another level.

  • A fixed three day cycle would fix the lack of urgency found in BotW. The ever looming end of the world would always remind you are the lone hero, burdened with the task of saving the world. Naturally this would result in a darker plot and atmosphere, as all the characters in the world would react to this impending doom. Slowly increasing blood moon vibes anyone?

  • Each time to reset the cycle, you lose all of the precious loot you gathered, but any rune or travelpoint you unlocked remains saved in your Sheikah Slate. Looted weapons breaking is less frustrating if you know you'll lose them anyway each time you fast travel. Perhaps your Sheikah Slate can store your currently equipped gear when you reset time to balance time travel with a sense of meaningful progression.

  • Runes saved on your Sheikah Slate could make it possible for players to progress in the story in a more linear fashion, by unlocking runes which serve as keys to smaller parts of the world. Ideally the Master Sword would travel back in time with you too. Although this would mean a less open world initially, there are still various possibilities to allow for player choice. For example, areas and dungeons could have multiple objectives based on the current timeline and the player gear.

  • A continuous cycle of three days would allow the developers to craft large world events such as seen in the memories in BotW. Imagine a town evacuating, Guardians storming in, an island flooding, a volcano erupting, an avalanche coming down. Through quests and dungeons, these events could be changed into different timelines. Such events would make the world feel more alive.

  • Runes, travelpoints and perhaps outfits (masks?) could allow you to quicksolve quests you did before, allowing you to unlock a true ending by completing all quests in a single cycle.

**TL;DR: The three day cycle in Majora's Mask could be used in a BotW type world to increase sense of urgency in the main objective, streamline looting, mitigate weapon degradation, make the world feel more alive and increase the sense of progression without taking away too much freedom. I want this to happen.

Original 3D Zelda for 3Ds

Posted: 01 Jan 2018 10:07 PM PST

Why was the 3Ds Zelda engine only ever used for remakes? Personally I would enjoy a brand new traditional 3D Zelda using that engine. We only really have the 2 N64 and 2 Gamecube ones, the rest are different, and, in my opinion (not including BoTW as I haven't played it), worse. An entire new 3D adventure akin to those would be great, and it's a shame we probably won't see one. What are some thing you would like to see for a game like this? Personally, I'd love a game with similar exploration to The Wind Waker. The ocean mechanic was great, but if we could have that level of exploration on land with Epona, it could easily be number one for me.

Dreaming of Koholint Island

Posted: 01 Jan 2018 04:52 PM PST

Zelda game idea - specifically a BOTW sequel / remake of old game

Posted: 02 Jan 2018 05:44 AM PST

I don't normally do this but I had an idea I thought was really neat and wanted to share and see what the feedback was.

So, imagine a BOTW sequel that uses the same engine and style but it revolves around Link getting shipwrecked on a large island that has 6-8 dungeons scattered and hidden throughout that can be done in any order. It'd be like Eventide Island meets the entirety of Link's Awakening.

But them I thought... Why not just a reimagining of Link's Awakening? Link could go out on some sort of sea expedition for Hyrule, get's shipwrecked on this island with next to nothing on person, and you just explore the island to your hearts content. The giant egg is still at the top and you can climb straight to it right away. They can do original dungeons (that are not strictly inspired by LA dungeons) and bring back some utilitarian items that are awarded in each one that make traversing the island easier. Like... Maybe Link doesn't have is paraglider (since the island is smaller and more dense than Hyrule so the glider isn't strictly necessary) but you can find Roc's Cape in a dungeon that let's Link jump (higher) and glide. Maybe bring in something like the Mole Mitts that could give some sort of new digging mechanic but ultimately it could be a climbing buff (same buffs as climbing gear; eliminating the need to swap outfits for climbing) plus a no-slip grip on climbing. Maybe even have the chain chomp again that you can lead around the entire island and experiment with. Maybe use as a ball n'chain hammer item.

And of course they could add the whole Marin element all over again. Maybe even make it optional like BOTW's story elements depending on if you find them or not.

Just wanted to see what people thought of the idea. It doesn't have to be a reimagining of LA but just still be that basic concept of Eventide Island meets LA as a full Zelda game.

Champions ballad

Am I the only one who finds it boring ? The one hit obliterator phase was good but the monuments were boring . You just beat the same bosses again without gaining something cool . The final trial (which I haven't beaten yet ) and the memories you gained is cool tho
