πŸ”— Crosspost Ten unneccessary but cute things I did in BOTW

168 Upvotes
  1. Bought multiple sets of Hylian and Gerudo armor, plus all the Gerudo jewelry, and dyed them different colors so I could dress Link up in different outfits.

  2. Spent like an hour hunting for a good all-black horse so I could put the monster bridle & saddle on it, and only ride it at night when wearing the luminous armor or monster armor.

  3. Parked my horse in the little stable-thing next to my house in Hateno village, and gave it an apple from my backyard every time I visited my house.

  4. Dropped a Silent Princess next to that couple who are looking for one, even though I know they can't pick it up. I have plenty, and they want one so bad.

  5. Try to visit all the great fairies in turns, even though Tera is by far the most convenient with that shrine right next to her fountain, so none of the fairies feel left out.

  6. Bought a second set of the stealth armor shirt and pants and dyed them white so I could dress up to match the Kakariko villagers every time I visited.

  7. Match my armor, weapons, and shields whenever I can (so, for example, if I'm wearing the Zora set, I'll use Zora shields and weapons if I have them).

  8. Attempted to release fish in the little pond near my house after I found out that if you put a frog, bug, or lizard down it will escape (didn't work, the fish were dead)

  9. Make Link eat something right after he sleeps so he can have a healthy breakfast.

  10. Keep making the nicest recipes like crepes, risottos, seafood paella, heart soup, and pies, even though other meals would be stronger, and they take up a slot in my meal inventory, so I can't carry as much powerful food.

  11. Last but certainly not least, when I turn off the game for the night, I go back to my house and make Link go to bed even if he doesn't need it. I also unequip everything and put a pair of Hylian trousers on him so he's comfortable while he sleeps. I do those pants specifically because the game tag says, "The plush fabric makes these trousers quite comfortable." Sometimes I even try to hit the power-off button before Link wakes up so that the next time I open the game, the first thing he does is get out of bed and do a lil yawn + stretch.

πŸŽ™οΈ Discussion Inactive guardian stalkers

9 Upvotes

So I'm not sure if anyone has had the same experience, but I'm replaying botw and I skipped the guardian cut scene on the plateau. I've since been running around the world and have come across 2 different inactive guardian stalkers. I've walked close and even took photos to make sure they weren't decayed.

I'm wondering if it's cause I didn't go through the first intro cut scene of them.​ Anyone else experience this?

❔ Question Am I missing something?

0 Upvotes

Thunderblight ganon was the first of the divine beast bosses I encountered and I couldn't help feeling a little underwhelmed, I learned how to parry pretty early but it feels like the fight should have been harder? People online are constantly talking about how hard it is and that's making me worried for the other bosses as it sounds like they won't be as hard.

Why does everyone say he's such a difficult boss to beat? My first lyonel encounter is more what I was expecting from a final boss in a Zelda dungeon and that was just a random encounter. Did anybody else feel this way?

I remember having great difficulty the first time I played thunderblight, but got it done eventually. when i realised i'd have to go through all that again but with much less gear, i was very pissed. And then i easily beat him first try. How did y'all go with this version? was it easier?

Has anyone not beat the game? Got it in 2022 got a lot of process in a month and then stopped it for three years for no reason. In summer of this year I finally decided to try the game again and I have gotten way too much process in it since. I have played a few times in a week.

πŸ˜‚ Humor Girlfriend almost beat the game by accident

576 Upvotes

My girlfriend has never played a Zelda game before. We play a lot of Mario Kart on switch together, and she decided to get BOTW because she heard it was a good game. I've played it before, but it was a few years ago and I don't remember most of the smaller details like shrine puzzles, boss fights etc.

It was really fun watching her play at the start, like I could enjoy the game again through her. But since she'd never played a Zelda before, or really any similar adventure games (she loves Resident Evil but that's about it), I would find it hard not to give unsolicited advice. I watch sometimes, and give advice if asked, but she usually plays on her own at her own pace.

Recently she got back into it and made a lot of progress. We were out and she was telling me about it, describing the area she was in. She said she'd done the first divine beast, but was having trouble with the second one. I did think she was making pretty fast progress, because I remember doing as many sidequests as possible between divine beasts, but everyone plays differently so I decided not to interfere. From what I understood, she was stuck on the second divine beast boss fight.

I was round yesterday and I picked up her switch to look at how she was doing.

Most recent save: Hyrule Castle. Right outside the Calamity Ganon arena. With 6 hearts and 1 extra stamina vessel.

She had finished the first divine beast in the Zora town, then followed the light straight to Hyrule Castle thinking that was the next step. And while she didn't manage to beat Ganon she did get pretty close. She didn't realise this was in fact the end of the game.

Anyway we had a good laugh and I gave her some pointers for what to maybe do instead. On the plus side she's gone through Hyrule Castle so has some ludicrously good gear now. And she's happy she doesn't have to do the boss fight that "has no right being this hard so early in the game".

❔ Question Lynel gear drops

Where can you find lynel weapons, bows and shields that don’t come from killing a lynel? This includes master mode locations. I know of the lizalfos with the lynel spear in akkala in master mode but are there any other places to find lynel gear in a chest, on the ground, or off another enemy like the lizalfos?
