Zelda: Breath Of The Wild Part II - Oops, I Got Sidetracked Again.

[Em etah Eh]

Bought my daughter a switch last year for her birthday and we've been playing all the Mario stuff together. This game has always been lurking in the back of my mind as something I really wanted to check out, but feared I would get too consumed by it. I finally pulled the trigger on it and man this game is too good. I've been a good boy for a long while now with not getting occupied too much in a game ( not since COD Ghosts), but man this game... It's funny playing with my daughter too because she catches so much stuff lying around when I'm just trying to run to the next objective.

For those of you that bought the Amiibo cards, what's a good place to buy them these days?

I've defeated all the Divine Beasts, but still sitting at around 70ish shrines so I'm still hesitant to go the Castle. Probably going to take some time to grind to upgrade my gear.

 

[Tw1ster]

I’ve done all 120 shrines and have one more divine beast before I can tackle the castle. I kinda took a break once I did all the shrines, that alone made me feel complete. This is one of my favorite games of all time in terms of fun factor

The castle isn't very difficult and you can bypass a whole lot of it with one of the powers you get from one of the Champion.

Well, after 23ish years of gaming I’m about to jump into my first Zelda game in Breath of the Wild. (My gf just bought a switch).

I’ve been an avid RPG fan since I was a child, so I’m looking forward to getting around to trying a Zelda game.

I just climbed the whole way.

 

[Blitzkrug]

I think I ended up exploring a good chunk of the castle because I wanted that stupid cookbook

The final fight is pretty underwhelming tho

 

[Rhaegar Targaryen]

I'm trying to beat Thunderblight Ganon right now.

I can get by the first and second phase pretty easily. I have no idea what to do when he keeps going crazy and throwing thunder at me. It's almost impossible to dodge, destroys me and makes me drop my weapon right away.

Can anyone give me some pointers?

 

[Unholy]

I'm finally playing the DLC and haven't touched the game in a long time.. man I forgot how much I love this game and just exploring the areas.

Yeah I remember that Ganon really pissing me off. Is that phase the one where he drops those rocks and then zaps lightning from above? If so you can use magnesis on them and lift them up close to him so he'll zap himself. Also might want to stock up on some of the electricity resistant food.

Yeah, he’s the guy. But I can get by that part easy enough

 

[Do Make Say Think]

But that is the final part: he drops these giant rods that get struck by lightning, you have to magnesis them up next to him as he flies around.

That’s the middle part for me. Once I do that, he stops dropping the rods and starts doing some quick insane attack that electrocutes you

Right he starts teleporting and shooting guardian laser beams. Well his shield can be broken if you hit it a bunch of times and that will stun him allowing you to get in some hits. You can also perfect dodge his teleport attack, it is easier to do than it looks. Finally you can reflect the guardian laser back at him; find a guardian and practice reflecting their lasers with your shield, there is a tell right before the energy converges (it also makes a distinct sound) indicating when to do the shield parry/deflect.

I live out of a hotel for work during the week and finally took my WiiU to the hotel. I guess I'll be playing lots of Zelda again. Not like I ever finished the mainline story, though.

I did complete the labyrinths yesterday. Not sure what I'll do today. Maybe hit up Death Mountain.

 

[Metroid]

Just started up again, totally forgot I got the download content so been doing the ex champion missions. Was so damn rusty at the controls lol
But goddamn how much fun it is to still play.

 

[Randy Butternubs]

2 and a half years later and I'm finally up Death Mountain.

 

[robertmac43]

Just restarted this game for the fun of it. The feeling of awe when you first look out over Hyrule was still there this second time. Also the exploration still feels amazing!

 

[Randy Butternubs]

Finally completed the Gerudo and Goron dungeons. Only took me about 3 years.

 

[TheCanasianfrasian]

just restarted playing after having not played for 2 years

made a fresh save

its almost better now because i have a better idea of whats going on. especially in terms of items/cooking/weps, etc

 

[MMC]

Really wish this game had a postgame instead of just saving before the Ganon fight.

 

[shello]

Im on the fence of doing a fresh start. I want to for the joy of the game but it's always hard letting go of a save file

 

[Nizdizzle]

Once we get more info and a release date for BOTW2, I don't think I'm going to be able to contain myself. They set the bar so high for themselves with this game.

I'd love a Majora's Mask-esq change up.
