My method: Hide contents Teleport to the starting area & ascend up top. Build a wing, fan & battery & ride it to the dragon. Plus you'll need 2 stamina wheels Spoiler I just went to the starting sky island and dived/glided down to the dragon. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also got Hylian shield early on by pilfering Hyrule castle. 2 claymores & Royal Guard's bows. Think it resets every blood moon. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

well fan for life Posted June 27, 2023 Share Posted June 27, 2023 I've done all the temples in TOTK and could now straight-line it to the final boss but I'm having a smashing time doing all the wee side-quests. I'm about 100 hours into it as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doing the koroks will be a grind, but i've found that you can use auto-build to levitate them, so they're easier to get across rivers. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KnightswoodBear Posted July 13, 2023 Share Posted July 13, 2023 I feel rather sheepish that I've only just realized that.... Spoiler the lightroots are all directly below shrines on the surface. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was flicking between the maps and had a light bulb (or root) moment. Certainly makes finding the lightroots and shrines a whole lot easier when you realise. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's stuff in BOTW I see folk discover that I had no idea existed and I stuck about 200 hours into that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weirdcal Posted July 25, 2023 Share Posted July 25, 2023 On tears of the kingdom, I have only just noticed that if a skyisland has an over flowing waterfall, the waterfall extends when it's raining making it easier to ascend with the right equipment... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously times moved on, but something like Super Mario World still looks and plays pretty well. I was playing some SNES games on Switch, and Donkey Kong Country, which I thought looked amazing at the time, has really aged poorly in comparison. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

forameus Posted August 21, 2023 Share Posted August 21, 2023 In an era where any old shite gets released in the knowledge that they can update to their heart's content later with no consequences, Nintendo seem to stand out for actually making sure their games are polished prior to release. I don't think I've played any first-party Switch game where I've noticed anything really serious in terms of bugs. Mario Odyssey was an absolute joy from start-to-finish, and even though I've not really got on with the Zelda games, both BOTW and TOTK are pretty much faultless from a technical standpoint. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think there was a couple of things in TOTK that got patched early on. I saw a few things that suggested there was some glitches that allowed you to kill Lynels easily by attaching two chests together and it drove them bonkers and they just stood still shouting at them. Don't think that happens anymore. eta A bit like this: Edited August 22, 2023 by KnightswoodBear 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
