I’ve been trying to get into it on wii, and I just can’t. The controls are too godawful. Think I’ll get it for switch if anything.

They give you the instant kill arrows throughout the trials for a reason lol

the first trials were the hardest just because of how poo poo the weapons were. I only almost failed the last one because I wasted too many arrows on the first flying guardian because i didnt know how to kill them except risking it all doing parries.

there were a couple that were really badly balanced for master mode especially, one with a bunch of... silver lizalfos? Floor 10. It was cool to come up with a way to beat it but man that was not intended to be as hard as it was

Anything apart from bosses yeah, guardians need to be hit in the eye but that's it. You don't get any loot but who cares

i had this combo oracle of seasons/ages player's guide as a kid, but i only ever owned Seasons. i made do by repeatedly reading through the Ages portion of the guide and pretending to play through it with my imagination...anyways thanks to this thread and its demented predecessor I'm going to replay awakening DX, seasons, and finally a linked save playthrough of ages

it's awful, they start gaining health back about 5-10 seconds after you last hit them. I was hoping it was going to be a sort of desperate survival experience where you really have to rely on physics tricks, traps, ambushes etc to beat a lot of enemies but instead literally the only viable option (other than knocking stuff off cliffs) is face to face fighting lol

when beast ganon is almost dead I couldn’t figure out how to kill him and then ended up dying. In retrospect i think i need to sword plunge onto his back

For real. The ending was nice but yeah, it would’ve been cool to have some post-game stuff. Kinda like the scouring of the shire or something.


On second thought, maybe not. I just don’t think I wanted the main story to end. :unsmith:

I played 200+ hours and saved Hyrule Castle for the very last, and I'm glad I did. I knew that once I beat Ganon, my motivation to continue playing was going to drop precipitously.

I’ve been doing that on my second run. Actually got all the shrines this time and upgraded the Master Sword. Am doing the Champions Ballad now and will probably use the cycle to get as much korok as I can stomach and farm the rest of the weapons parts I need before. Then I’ll finally watch all the memories once more in canonical order and kill Ganon.

Watched all the memories, now invading the castle and absolutely clowning in Ganon’s minions.

You can ride the master cycle around outside too which is cool. Such a great reward in a video game, if not the best.

see if you can pick up on all the musical cues in ganon's castle. there are obvious ones like hyrule castle and zelda's lullaby but there are some surprises in there too. breath of the wild owns.
