The Legend of Zelda - Breath of the Wild

[Afino]

Three Divine Beasts down. That one wasn't any fun at all rotating the drum sections. Least favorite.

 

[Daisy Jane]

I don't think I got that one, who gives you that quest?

you can get this sidequest, by going to the house next to the inn in Tarry Town. go around the back and eavesdrop (BAD LINK!) then it will trigger.

the father also gives you the Guardian sidequest.

this second playthrough i am not getting bombarded with Yiga people so i can't finish the sidequest for the kid in Hateno.

the drums.. do you mean the Camel? yah. that one BUGGED me.

 

[Do Make Say Think]

I thought it was the best one by far.

 

[Randy Butternubs]

I look forward to playing this game for a few hours today.

Elephant was my fav. so was the Salamander.
I did like the Bird but it was too easy lol. just more of "here. try it." that's why it makes me wonder even though things point you towards Zora's domain first, if Rito Village is where the game actually thought you'd play first

 

[Afino]

Yeah, that.

I'm debating just plowing through the Rito section to explore the world after at my leisure.

Definitely the weakest dungeon. Exploring the mountains was awesome though!

I put in about 4 hours yesterday. Ventured off into the desert and found the Gerudo Town, but haven't been granted access. I also found the camel (the first divine beast I've seen) and tried to board it. Failed miserably.

you can't board the camel until you get into Gerudo.



100 shrines down. 20 to go. i will have to say. this is very tedious now. LOL

I think now i have to start doing some divine beasts so i can get the rest of the shrines that activate after everything is peaceful.

How to get in:

[spoil]dress up like a woman. Seriously. There's a person outside town that'll help. You end up back at the bazaar I believe. You get some women's clothing. Oh, and don't even take it off within Gerudo's walls.[/spoil]

 

[TheCanasianfrasian]

I did my 1st divine beast yesterday, the elephant.

i was fun, but i was kind of hoping it would be a dungeon like most zelda games (OOT, ALTTP, TP,etc)

This game is amazing, i'm having a lot fun exploring

The guy outside the shrine at the walls told me about the Bazaar, but I totally avoided that [the Bazaar] when traveling to the city. So I had no clue where that Bazaar was until I looked it up this morning.

I gave up and went exploring up north.

They've just split the whole "dungeon" thing between the DB's and the shrines. I get why they did it this way but I agree, I'd love if the DLC brought some sort of "underground dungeons" or something as a second quest. Something more traditional.

If anyone is still early on in the game, do the Rito Divine Beast early. It will give you one of the best abilities in the game for exploration.

Me. And that's what I plan on doing.

 

[Augscura]

I did the Rito beast last. Woops

Same. Was pissed when I saw the power.

Would have been great to have 60 hours ago!

 

[Pilky01]

Hah! I ran past that one outlook that was surrounded by ice and thought "how the **** am I supposed to get up there", then people around Rito town started talking about some special ability and I knew I had to have it.

Rito was actually the first dungeon I did. Then Zora. I have Goron unlocked but haven't started it yet, and haven't ventured out to the Gerudo beast yet.

 

[guinness]

I got the Master Sword, entered Gerudo town, and beat Medoh last night, although most surprising to me, was how much of a letdown the Ganon boss was for Medoh. (and a minor gripe with BOTW's dependence on range attacks, either straightforward or waiting until you can get enough arrows).

Tonight, I got as far as meeting up with the Gerudo chief outside of town, but still wishing to explore more first. And the downside with open world games, is that my initial approach to Gerudo town a couple weeks ago took me completely around the bazaar. (ditto with my initial approach to kakariko village).

Up to 50 shines down, I do like most of the puzzle ones, and I'm at the point that the modest tests of strength aren't difficult to just brute smash those guardians.

LOL when i play this again (for the third time) i am just making a beeline for Rito and getting this power. it's so awesome. I swear it feels that this should have been the first place, but technically - you get it last.

115 shrines down. i know where ONE is... but it's the other 4 i have to discover. guh.

And it was incredibly easy inside the beast compared to the other three. Wow.

With all four beasts down, time to explore....

 

[Daisy Jane]

I find in order of difficulty it's

Medoh (easiest), Ruta, Rudania and Nooboris (hardest) for me.

this is so annoying. I have to find 3 shrines and i have zero idea where to go i might do a cursory look one more time if not - time to be Gagon again. which is poop because i wanted to do 100 percent shrines this go around.

 

[Afino]

I would agree with that ranking.

 

[Daisy Jane]

oh. Zelda Dungeon has the best map ever. you can actually click WHAT YOU HAVE DONE. so if you wanted to get everything in an area you can totally do it and either (ADD), or (REMOVE).


now i can find the shrines i'm missing.


also. when you beat all of the Kass missions + do Warbler's Recital. go back to Rito Village, and it's the cutest scene.

Yatta! I got everything
time to finally put Zelda to bed. (again). i don't really intend on doing this again until the DLC update. two playthroughs back to back is enough

I guess you have to decide between full hearts and full stamina. i'm "3" short in the heart department.
