There something so satisfying about chopping off a Guardian's legs.

I'm also being very slow in progressing. I just love exploring and finding shrines and memories.

Here's 6 min of the 2D NES Breath of the Wild demo. It doesn't have any music, and the sound effects resemble some old Atari games to me, but still pretty cool to see.

Oh, and I had to link to IGN. I couldn't find anything on youtube.

Finished my final shrine last night. My last one was at the [blackout] Spring of Courage. [/blackout]. I didn't plan that, but if that isn't the most fitting final shrine, then I don't know what is.

 

[Spidey-Bat]

I finished all the Shrines this weekend. I felt I should face Ganon with the game's green tunic to keep with tradition.

This game perfected an open world for exploration. But the dungeons and boss fights were lackluster. I don't want this to become Skyrim for me where I get bored 20 min into a replay, so I'll be taking a break for awhile.

I have to admit I wouldn't have minded a little more Zelda mythos thrown in. Especially with all the easter eggs like Lon Lon, the Arbitars Grounds, etc.

Wonder if the next game will be the events from 10,000 years before and involve the creation of the Guardians and Sheikah tech. If the timeline convergence theory is what Nintendo tries to go with that could be the place to pull it off as well.

Or if they go to the future based on the Master Sword's reaction I wonder if Fi is dying?

The biggest issue this game has is it plays its hand way too early which ruins how solid the exploration is because you already know what is over the next hill... another ****ing spirit orb or korok seed. I actually like the dungeon design, but their needed to be more of them. I would have gladly traded off half the shrines for more dungeons proper because most the shrines are trash. For a game of this scale and size, its really lacking meaningful content. The good news is once I grew tired of the Zelda's gameplay loop, I was able to finish the game at my leisure. I still think its one of the best games released this gen, but its got its warts.

What other [blackout]Zelda species would get Divine Beasts? The Kokiri, the Deku, the Koroks[/blackout]?

I would [BLACKOUT]give one to the Koroks, possibly even make the Deku Tree one and I would give one to Hylians. I would add dedicated dungeons to the Hylian Shield and the Hero's Bow [/BLACKOUT]

 

[Loden Greatstorm]

I wonder what is next?

 

[KillerMcQueen]

I'd want the Deku, the last time they got any real attention was Majora's Mask.

 

[Sithborg]

Master Sword obtained. Let's finish off these Divine Beasts...

I really think this game is going to sale around 10 million maybe even more.
http://nintendoeverything.com/switch...-3-84-million/


Considering the game is already at all most 4 million when you consider the fact that not a lot of people ever got the wii u and when you consider that switch is still almost impossible to find and yet Zelda is at almost 4 million already I think this shows that Zelda is going to do some really big numbers.

 

[Scarecrow_King]

I giggle at the fact that I haven't beaten Ganon yet. I'm nearly 100 hours into the game.

I've beaten all the shrines and am hunting down my last memory photograph (which I cannot find for the life of me). But I haven't even approached the final boss yet.

Which one? I know one of them is actually in the castle. The forest one gave me a few fits until I finally found the painter to point it out to me.

 

[spiderman2]

So about the game saling 3.84 million so far that I posted about this morning. It is really a crazy number has that is just in march thought that included April numbers so far and also 3.84 million in a month when it is almost impossible to even get a switch and not a lot of people have a wii u and those numbers when it is not even holliday time. I think my prediction of 10 million life time for this game may be off.

First details i have seen for first BOTW! I thought we wouldnt get details in till E3 and the DLC sounds great!

http://zelda.com/breath-of-the-wild/news/expansion-pass-dlc-pack-1-detailed/

The map feature sounds very interesting to be able to know where you haven't went yet and what you have spent the most time in because with how big the game is it can be hard to really keep track of where you have or not been to yet.
Hard mode sounds awesome! Enemy's and chest in the sky. Man Nintendo just when you think this game cant get better! Wow this is a lot more then I was expecting and its just pack 1. Makes me think the story DLC in pack 2 is going to be longer then people thought!

 

[Joe Von Zombie]

The trial of the sword sounds lame as ****.

The trial of the sword sounds lame as ****.

Sounds kind of like the Survial Island in the game.

 

[Lily Adler]

I'm hating that trial by the way.

Oh I loved it one of my favorite moments in the game so far.

 

[Lily Adler]

I'm having trouble getting the second orb off the Hinox. I defeated him before, but died on the third orb and tried to replicate my success to no avail.

 

[Travesty]

Just run under them until they bounce on their ass. When he's stunned, chop at him. Also, shoot arrows at his eye, which will also stun him. If you're trying to chop his legs, and he has shin guards, shoot a fire arrow at it, and they'll burn off.

 

[spiderman2]

Also just saw this.

I was using those methods, including the boulders to wake him. I killed him by using the explosive barrels after burning the shin guards.
