Lets use this thread to discuss the game on the Nintendo Switch. To help hold the tide of the wait, here are some beautiful screenshots and links for your perusal.
I beat Thunderblight Ganon today. Not too difficult, but very thankful for the Fury Rush ability. The new ability you get seems like it will be pretty cool to use.
Sooo...I guess I'm cleared to go to the End Game. But I'm hesitant to do so without the Master Sword in hand. Maybe I'll scope out some more Shrines and do some side quests and then go get it.
Also, damn how many sit-ups do you think Urbosa does a day to get those abs?!?
I love how you get onto the Camel divine beast thing. The games like "yah only the chosen champs can enter this thing" and then you come along with a sand walrus, rope, explosives, and a magic helmet and bam, you're in.
Did you get through the lost woods? From there you only need [spoiler alert] 15 hearts to get the sword.
I mean, when your a ghost stuck in a massive metalic camel for 100 years what else do you have to do? Write the consolation of philosophy?
I actually didn’t go to Ganon until doing every shrine. It’s probably why I haven’t finished the game again, because my initial playthrough was 100-120 hours.
Well, that and Master Mode is very difficult. I just got the Master Sword in it though, and if it’s like the standard difficulty, the rest of the game should be a cakewalk after that.
I was wandering around the Gerudo Desert and stumbled across a giant sand shark...or sand whale? I dunno. It killed me instantly when I first found it, but upon a reload I was able to snipe it from a plateau with Bomb Arrows. I didn't want to fight it, but I couldn't cook with foes nearby. So my hand was forced.
I hope the spoils from the victory are valuable. And I wonder what other huge monsters are on the outer perimeters of the map? If any.
Just been wandering around and completing Shrines lately. Found one in the north mountains hidden in a maze. I won’t lie, after about 20 minutes hitting dead ends, I turned to an online guide. Even with that, it was confusing! Props to anyone that figured that place out on their own!
They make if far to easy by making the walls climbable and also making you get Revali's Gale before you even find it. they should've made a roof on it.
I feel like the mazes should have given you more then just a shrine. In the end, you know you're going to get a spirit orb and maybe some equipment or gems. In the older games beating a dungeon gained you a brand new piece of equipment.
I'm pretty sure they stayed there, but it's possible some of them started to disappear as I dropped too many. Still helped me know which ways I'd went most recently.
Ah, that’s pretty clever! I think I could have eventually found my way to the shrine inside the maze, but I was too impatient.
I found another Shrine kind of by accident while exploring a place called The Forgotten Temple. There was a gauntlet of tough enemies guarding the place. I took out a few at a time, but it was taking too long. So I figured I would just make a run for it.
I didn’t think that was going to work, but somehow it did! I also had to laugh because on my way out, several of the foes shot at me, but Daruk’s Protection reflected the projectiles back at them all, all at the same time! I was happy to collect all the Ancient Springs, Gears, and Cores! Bwa ha ha!
I teleported back to Kakriko because I didn’t think I’d survive the gauntlet going back!
