video game The Legend Of Zelda: Tears Of The Kingdom - Available !

[Magickarp]

Bright Blooms, which u should have hundreds of, make the Depths significantly better to explore. 

 

The bottom half of my Depths map is nearly full cuz i loved exploring it at the start, but the top half is patchy cuz i lost interest once i finished the main Depths quest & also realized it's really all just 1 biome with the same assets scattered across. There are some cool areas, but the darkness also hampers the "Getting distracted by landmarks" feel of the Land map. 

 

The Sky is eh too. Unlike the depths, u can see cool areas and be interested to go to them, but most are just copy paste overworld puzzles.

 

The Sky & Depths on their own are just average designed openworld maps imo. 

Land & Caves are still the gold standard for curiosity, & exploration.

 

 

EDIT: New Patch 1.1.2 just dropped, apparently the duplication got patched out. 

[Doogle]

I tried exploring the depths yesterday a little but my map didn’t update with new places I’d been? I was doing that quest following the statues but gave up half way. Is my map not supposed to light up as I explore more parts?

[Eóghan]

damn I fell on top of Naydra while chasing him in a chasm and I ended having a first class trip through the depths on top of him.

 

sooo cool 

 

in BoTW you couldn't land on top of a dragon. but now i guess you can ride them they're just chilling. I was just standing on Naydra's nose while he illuminated the whole place. what an amazing way to scope things out in a relaxing way

I love how this game just lets you do anything. I finished the Rito and Gerudo temples pretty quickly and then decided to slow down and just explore and do side quests. I was just sitting around waiting for Dondons to poop out some gems when I saw a rock fall from the sky. Decided to recall on it while I waited to see if there were any sky islands nearby

faintly saw a shrine through a cloud and ended up on dragon head island (I think i accidentally bypassed all the other islands lol). See some vines to cut through, and suddenly I’m on a quest through the depths, get Mineru’s construct, and a couple hours later have the master sword

 

 

I feel like I wasn’t supposed to know about any of that until much later in the game, but there’s absolutely no barriers to any of it lol  

The exact same thing happened to me

Girl wait, did you run down Naydra's body at all?

 

Spoiler

The dragons have collectible items along their bodies where they have little spikes in their backs: they're called "shard of [dragon's name] spike." So you'll want to land on every dragon at least once to collect the shards. Scales, claws, fangs, and spikes... so many dragon drops this time around

no I didn't, sometimes I wonder how you're supposed to figure this **** out

I've been farming the hard way when I could've just picked flowers lol

[TeamThiem]

Finished the Water Temple.

 

This game definitely makes me feel stupid.  Having to look up majority of the puzzles.

 

The solutions on youtube always impress me though, lol

[R.E.M.]

thanks to your recommendations, I finally took the plunge and spent a few hours in the depths

 

where are the actual things to do (besides being chased by mobs/finding lightroots)  ?

[gagacasanova]

I ******* HATE THE LIGHTNING TEMPLE

[Dylangaga]

I'm 40 hrs in and still exploring the areas around Lookout Tower

The first time i figured u could land on one i was so shooketh that i did not even consider that, so u r not alone

Also u might wanna stay on 1.1.1 just incase u wanna duplicate after u finish the game  it's a nice QOL

If u haven't figured out the Depths quest yet, u should go to the hole near the Lookout Landing iirc. Either that or talk to Robbie/his assistant at Lookout Landing.

will do

[Eóghan]

i love that you can walk into the Great Plateau now, strolling around the Plateau on a horse feels so weird

I've done stuff on the Great plateau for a good 5 hours and if you follow the few quests unlocked by Josha/Robbie that take place in the depths you'll be under the Great Plateau in no time and there's cute side quest that links the depths to the great plateau. you'll get more health as a reward but also a great tutorial to the depths mechanics as a whole, and what you need to chase after down there in the long run

[Starshine]

I'm 75 hours in and have done 1 temple. 

 

I'm taking my sweet time with this game. 

[arceus]

When Zelda

Spoiler

transformed into a motherfucking dragon 

 

 

 

I have unlocked all the towers. Time to explore Hyrule (The Surface) in peace now. 

[Eóghan]

nintendo is evil for turning the safety and peace of the trees from BoTw into jumpscares in this game

 

I will never get used to it, the way I jump every ******* time  they always get me

[NordicGuy]

I've spent the last 2 weeks playing this game almost non-stop and let me tell you I have never had this much fun playing a game. And it's not just extremely entertaining, it's also an unforgettable experience as a whole. It gives me those same kind of chills that Link to the Past used to give me when I was a little kid playing a game where you never knew what secrets were waiting for you just behind the corner or where you would find a secret passage.

 

I loved BotW, it made me feel like I was exploring an unknown world and I played it to death. At first I was very critical of Nintendo's choice to reuse the old map but actually it ended up becoming the game's greatest strength to me. All the caves and other new additions and changes are just so exciting and I don't know if they would be so impactful had I not played BotW so much. It feels like like finding a hidden room behind your bedroom wall as a kid. It gives me a thrill every single time I jump down a well or swim up a waterfall all the way up to the sky. It feels like I shouldn't be able to do this yet there I am, living inside the greatest game I've ever played and having the time of my life.

Are you talking about the Faron region cuz I just got there now and when I saw that gleeok I screamed 

 

The Orochium shrine in that area was so much fun tho ahhh. When a shrine has keys you know it's gonna give old school dungeon. 

[Kern]

omg guys I just unlocked  (main quest spoiler)

Spoiler

Mineru

!!  what a game changer

Easily best game I played since Fable. I think I stopped playing BOTW after about 50% completion but this I won't stop playing till I got 100%

[Kristie Kuwa]

Is the game good?

I thought it was hebra since it’s a snowy region but you mean that courage to fall one 

 

that was fun
