The most hilarious part is the MS marketed the game as 60fps and then pulled the 30fps bait and switch. All of the preview footage was 60fps. That's on top of "the most powerful console ever" not running a 1st Person Shooter at 60fps. RSG3, RegH81, DarkSakul and 2 others 1 3 1 Quote Link to comment

Sonichuman Posted May 13, 2023 Share Posted May 13, 2023 I've been playing near non stop since I got off so and I just finished my session for the night. So I've put in roughly 7-8 hours in. 5 hours of that was on the tutorial sky island just taking my timw and searching every where. The beginning sky island feels somehow larger than the Great Plateau. Its another great starter area to get a feel for the the game. This game has some amazing scenery in it. I just got to the surface and helped out a Hudson fanboy with a sign and I wasn't even sure if it'd work or not or if was even a thing but the fact that it was just made me fall completely in love with this game even more.

RSG3 Posted May 13, 2023 Share Posted May 13, 2023 Wrapping up my first play through as well. I started at around 3...yikes lol. Random Exploratory Spoilers. Spoiler This game is fucking massive. Not only is the entire over world there, not only are there sky islands, not only are there now extensive cave systems everywhere,....there's a whole fucking second map under the main over world map. Can't tell if it's completely connected but it seems like it is...I've spelunking down 4 holes, explore for like 2 hours, still have no clue what you find down there. I found a boss that stomped me in one shot. Thats all I'll say...went to Zoras Domain first. Got some stuff done there but now I'm stumped by a riddle. Then I hit Tarry Town, then doubled back and went to Kakariko, now I'm on the Great Plateau checking out what's changed. Think I'm gonna make my way to Garudo Town and then call it a night...

More exploratory stuff Spoiler I went into depths this morning around an hour or so into my session and I thought the depths was going to be like just segmented areas under the ground but holy hell...I've been down here for atleast 1-2 hours and it really gives the impression that there is just a whole ass map under the map of the surface of hyrule right now. I've been mostly ruining gloom monster camps and mining cause I'm in poverty status right now. It really does feel dangerous down here because of the added gloom effects...I had a gloom moblin somehow sneak up behind me while I was causing havox and he one shotted my ass.

RSG3 Posted May 14, 2023 Share Posted May 14, 2023 I've completed two Dungeons so far. Spoiler They are pretty dope. They have unique bosses to, like not Blight type remixes or anything. One of then had a gimmick thay made the fight a little harder then it needed to be but still wasn't too bad. The Dungeons are pretty decently sized, I'm pleased. The puzzles are still kinda simple but I think that fits the BOTW style of game where you aren't unlocking unique gimmick items for each Dungeon, instead all the tools you have are applied across the entire game The Dungeons are pretty dope 👌 Sonichuman and Volt 2 Quote Link to comment
Sonichuman Posted May 14, 2023 Share Posted May 14, 2023 I haven't done any of the dungeons yet but I just made my way into the Hebra region and I'm at the Rito's doorstep. I'm really liking the changes in dynamics between the weapons and the enemy loot. Really makes the monster loot way more important now since most of it has secondary or even tertiary uses now. Arrows are now an even more important resource in this game especially in combination with exploring the depths and cave systems. When you're in the depths now you're really looking at your Arrow count and factoring that in to your exploration and combat. I also ran into the a "character" from the first game that helps you with identifying cave systems. So tip in the spoiler in the case you want to know since it's pretty helpful especially if you're looking for gems for money. Spoiler Any cherry blossom tree you can give an offering to will summon Satori. Satori will then make every cave system in the vicinity easier to spot by using wind. RSG3 1 Quote Link to comment

I found some maps that point to something in the depths so that's going to be fun to look for. My last time I went down there I went way out of the way from where I was and could not for the life of me find anymore light roots and I started to run out of arrows. Not to mention I was starting to run into Black gloom version bokoblins and moblins I had to dip. Now what you're saying is gonna be in the back of my mind lol. Having run into an enemy yet that potentially replaces the threat that the Guardians were quite yet. Wondering if there is anything equivalent.

Sonichuman Posted May 16, 2023 Share Posted May 16, 2023 (edited) I've been seeing some wild shit people have been creating. And It's not just flying dicks and exploding dicks either. Someone legit made a full blown mech with cannons on it. I just finished my first Dungeon and that was really good. Its still not quite as good as a traditional Zelda Dungeon but it definitely way better than BoTW's divine beasts. Honestly I already think this game has actually toppled BotW for me just on what I've experienced so far and I don't even think I'm at 15%. That dungeon actually had to make me think about how to use my abilities along with where position was in the dungeon to get to where I needed to go. The boss was also a great spectacle! Waaaaay better done boss than the blight ganons. If it was not for the fact that I gotta go to work, I'd be playing this game till like 3. This shit is so god damn good! I really don't know how Nintendo is going to top this shit lol. Edit: Also really like the atmosphere they set on the way to this dungeon too. Also really enjoyed the leitmotifs in the music as you were getting further and further into it. Edited May 16, 2023 by Sonichuman RSG3 1 Quote Link to comment

Ngl, I'm really disappointed.TotK didn't fix the main issue I had with BotW, but it's still a massive step up beside the music. Actual enemies inside dungeons again feel good, but I can't help but want a really big, TP-tier dungeon with these mechanics. The climb to it was iconic af tho. Boss was solid. Overall, it's a massive improvement to BotW, people will be finding new tech on this game for a decade. The expanded enemy variety is great. I won't have time to really sink my teeth into it any time soon tho. Sonichuman 1 Quote Link to comment

Thus far, I've only fought mooks and I'm still on the Great Sky Island. I ran across what I thought would be a stationary foe, so I fired off an arrow into it's eye, thinking it would just stay put while I picked it off.

RSG3 Posted May 18, 2023 Share Posted May 18, 2023 I've put in a bunch of time the last few days. I have the 4 main Dungeons done (i say main 4 because im not sure if there are more hidden away somewhere, i still have so much map to uncover), and I explored the Chasm below Hyrule Castle. It's a bit of a nightmare down there... I only got purah Pad Ability Spoiler Auto Build yesterday lmao. I spent a TON of time mapping the Depths and finally crossed Spoiler Master Khoga So I'm the hunt for that now. I've also managed to clear out the Maisma from The Lost Woods and even grabbed the Master Sword. No I won't tell any of you how to do either of them, it's cooler if you figure it out yourself, trust me. Oh I also finally killed one of those Blight/Gloom Hand Swarms that grab you and choke the shit out you like an old school Gibdo/Master Hand cross over. It's actually a cool fight, there are two phases to it, which is interesting for something not a boss, and they drop a really good weapon to boot. I recommend everyone try to kill one when they get the chance. I cheese out a Gloom Lyonel and their monster drop parts are fucking goooooood. Volt and RegH81 2 Quote Link to comment

Also I'm not trying to picture what this thing is you're talking about in the Chasm and I'm imagining something like swarm of Wallmasters covered in Gloom...which sounds terrifying. I already don't like Wallmasters just in general so picturing this makes me want to stock pile on bombs. There are 2 questions I'm still wondering about...First one being...has anyone ran into Kass? I thought I might run into him at Rito Village but nope. I might do some exploring of the Tabantha Tundra before I make my way over to Hateno to see Robbie. The 2nd thing question I'm curious about is what happened to the Divine Beasts? Are they in a cave somewhere waiting to get called out by the next line of guardians? Now I'm picturing them getting called out MMPR Megazord style for the final battle. Quote Link to comment
Sonichuman Posted May 18, 2023 Share Posted May 18, 2023 (edited) I just stumbled across very special horse in the Tabantha region. I do not have the stamina to tame it at the moment but I will come back for it. If you want to know what it is, it's in the spoiler without telling the exact location.
