Zore posted:Not to the same degree no. Closest you're going to get is probably stuff like Far Cry, Horizon or MGS:V which are fairly open ended and give you a bunch of different tools to tackle stuff in an open world environment. Horizon Zero Dawn, correct? I was looking at that game a year ago or so, but I've never owned any consoles (if you're wondering how I'm playing BotW, it's via Cemu emulator on PC) and buying a PS4 for one game seemed a bit much. There seem to be a few press releases on how they planned to bring it to the PC late last year but I don't see any updates on that or if they still plan to.

Ur Getting Fatter posted:Maybe something like Just Cause 3 for the "if you can see it you can go there" feeling. Yeah, the Just Cause series is probably the closest in terms of "climb things, leap off of them, and then soar around with a parachute in a massive game world." e: plus being able to grappling hook two things together and letting the physics engine go to work is basically infinite fun, so that's got my vote.

Freaking Crumbum posted:so i'm really jonesing for some more sweet zelda action but i've beaten botw and i feel like i'm out of options. then i realized i still have a wii u. the last zelda i played before botw was wind waker on the GC so i missed out on both twilight princess and skyward sword. If you're interesting in jumping in to a more traditional Zelda, have you ever played Okami? Okami is basically Legend of Zelda... except Link is a wolf and instead of Hyrule you're in ancient Japan.

Theres a complete edition which has the small amount of extra content for the game. It's very solid and fills the void of "big rear end open world to explore", yeah. The plot is 1000% depressing as gently caress though.

I played Horizon right before BoTW and I loved it and think it is a good compliment to BoTW. It's the prettiest game world I've ever explored and I found some of the combat more fun than anything in BoTW. The story and lore was also so much better than I expected it to be. It has it's faults and I don't think I'd buy a console for it but if you do get a PS4 it's a worthy addition to the library.

I just played through the plateau on PC with the Linkle mod and a rebalance that touches pretty much every aspect of the game. That was a bit of work setting up, but not actually as much as i was expecting and wow the game runs way better than I thought it would. If you have the slightest interest in BOTW modding I really recommend giving it a shot. As for the mods themselves, Linkle is almost perfect and extremely polished, and a nice change of pace from Link. The rebalance I have gripes with, like how it makes the Plateau a bit too difficult for my liking and makes getting rupees more difficult, but it really is extremely nice to have a sort of fresh perspective on everything in the game again so I think it's worth it sitting through the bad parts just for getting to play around with some new toys.  Also, here's a fun story that just happened: as soon as i got off the plateau, the actual first night, i saw a star piece. i had just caught my first horse, so of course i'm off to the races to try and get it. Well, turns out it landed in central hyrule, literally right next to a guardian. So i swoop in on my horse, grab it, and begin a mad ride out of there with the guardian on my tail shooting beams all over and causing several grassfires on the way back. And by the way, this mod increases the guardians' running speed so that fucker was on my rear end for a good long while, and those laser dodges were very, very tight! But point is stories like this are why I love this game, god drat it's just so good

Just found out there's a (separate) dialogue patch so everyone stops calling Linkle a handsome young man. Modding owns. By the way, the Linkle mod also does a thing I really appreciate which is that a lot of the hats change your hairstyle pretty drastically (like a couple of them do in the base game). It's perfect for someone like me who's never satisfied with customisation options and wants to change things up constantly.

That is possibly the best part of the mod When the first two outfits you receive (the starting stuff and hylian pants + the switch shirt) immediately went for the exposed thigh and midriff I was a tiny bit worried it was going in that direction but turns out it super wasn't

Finally completed the Trial of the Sword. I'd gotten through the Beginner and Middle trials on the first try, but the Final Trials had been the ones that had stopped me. First time at the Final Trials (About a year ago) I died in the very last room. Was out of Ancient Arrows at the room, ran around like a crazy person for a bit and took out several of the Bokoblins, then decided to take out the Guardian Turret. Killed that much easier than I expected, then went back to the Bokoblins and the Lynel. Died because I was too reliant on Fairy Revivals to save me from my actions, and didn't eat when I needed to. Second time (Several months ago) I died in the first room after the last rest stop because I aggroed too many of the Decayed Guardians at once. That, and thinking I had more fairies than I did doomed me. This time, made it through with one extra Ancient Arrow, Three Hearty Meals, Two Fairies, a boatload of weapons. I was definitely much more willing to use my high-damage weapons this time around, and to use the axes for their intended purposes. Ate all the trees, as usual. Was better at husbaning my Ancient Arrows for what they were really needed for, which made a lot of the difference. Things that helped this time: Ancient Arrows, like regular arrows, still exist if you don't hit your target, so if you wind up missing, once the danger has passed, swap your sensor to Ancient Arrows and hunt them down. The the the 11-fairy trick works in the Trial to bypass the apparent 3-Fairy-in-inventory limit, same as it does in the overworld. Probably was still a bit too reliant on them, but with six on hand, managed to push through.

I spent about a solid 90 minutes trying to get a 4/4/5 horse, and finally caught one in the Taobab Grasslands. I rode it all the way past two Lynels, boarded it, and went straight into the menu and loaded my last save instead of actually saving. Thankfully, the last save was right after I'd ridden Larch into the stable. God bless this game's autosaving.

Bulgakov posted:woah Yeah, I stumbled across a video about it back in '17 or thereabouts, Hadn't really thought about it much, because with the ridiculous amounts of healing items you can get in BoTW, fairies aren't nearly as useful outside of the Trial. That said, when I tried to find the video again this afternoon, I found a different video. There's a way to get up to 21 fairies by releasing Inventoried Fairies near the fountain and blasting Link away with a bomb before the fairies get spooked and flee. Fountain spawns new fairies when Link's down to 2 or less in inventory, Link can sneak around and scoop them all up. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=69lzT_YptYk

Ambaire posted:Are there any games comparable to Breath of the Wild out there that have a similar level of freedom with climbing and gliding around and world system interactions and combat? This game has rather spoiled me for what I expect from 'similar' games. Skyrim? Pah. This might be obvious but Metal Gear Solid V? The story is a bit of a wet fart but the gameplay is still one of the best out there.

Hi hello, just reporting in that after a million hours I realized that to solve the korok challenge of throwing a stone into a ring of rocks in the water you can just hold the rock and jump in rather than repeatedly trying to throw it in. Also a golden colored piglet man cracked my skull open with one hit despite having every preventative measure in place. Master mode is loving hard.

Or just buy it and then pirate it anyway. It's functionally identical without the biggest pain in the rear end part.

I've torn myself away from Pathologic long enough to get back to this. I appear to have infiltrated Hyrule Castle under the cover of thunderstorms and darkness. I came in from the moat and through the prisons. I have a 3d map marking key locations, stealth armor, and I'm sneaking past aerial gunships and heavily armed guards to destroy the ultimate weapon Did Did Nintendo make a metal gear e: Also I'm doing this with broken garbage, because it's still botw lol, and I didn't get the master sword or free three mechs yet but whatever I'm abandoning ship if it gets dicey metal gear ganon can nuke the president of hyrule I guess This is extremely triumphant music for breaking through at the break of dawn and running into ten billion hyperturrets and LIONHOUND. I found the shield, Zelda's diary and memory, some ancient arrorws, and Ganon himself but no warp point so lol this will be fun to do again in a few dozen hours.
