Where are the Arbiters Grounds in BotW? Can't find them in the desert anywhere.

What is your honest opinion on the durability system?

How do you get to the shrine northwest of Mercay Island? Just burn the thorns?

Xth for Links butt!

Once you realize that the game is all about adapting to different situations it feels a lot different, and thus makes sense

I like it. Only problem I have with it is that early game it leads to a lot of bomb spam.

Considering that I'm regularly walking around with 15 weapons and throwing away ones that are nowhere near breaking when I find something cooler, it's too lenient, although I don't think that making weapons break faster would be the solution to that problem.

East of the Gerudo Great Skeleton/Fairy Fountain.

It's only a "problem" in the first hour or so of the game because there are fucking weapons everywhere. If anything it's almost pointless so I don't get why people cry about it.

>cant steal weapons from a high level area and then cheese your way through the entire game
its good

It irked me at the beginning but I'm enjoying the inventory management. I just wish a torch, axe and hammer had their own slots so I wouldn't need to decided between real weapons and these "utility weapons".

Where is the kings diary in the Castle?

Cant find it

there is literally no point of axes when you can just bomb trees

It's literally labelled on the map, east of the Gerudo Great Skeleton.

>light weapon bokoblin
>short range, fast but reactable attack startup

>heavy weapon bokoblin
>decent range, very slow attack startup

>spear bokoblin
>huge range, attack startup too fast to react to

what the fuck

There's a reason spears were the primary weapon in medieval combat user.

>Daruk apologizes for not being able to defeat Fireblight Ganon and things going south as a result

All of the champions are so fucking awesome.

If we get another game like this I want it to be a prequel where you play as Link going around Hyrule collecting the champions and traveling with them.

short shorts!

I know. I'd just like to do it the right way every now and then for the hell of it. Bombing your way out of everything gets boring quick. They're too useful imo.

Why is Link so handsome?

I'm buying that fucking amiibo, I need to make my Link a fuccboi

You need Revali's Gale.

Jesus fuck can you imagine a 100% speedrun in this game?

How would you feel if Link got you pregnant?

Is annoying but at the same time it's what keeps me fighting goblins. A necessary evil I guess.

>900 koroks
>speed runs
impossible

>All of the champions are so fucking awesome.
are you trying to tell me you liked revali

I'm expecting it to be a category that nobody runs seriously because of how long it takes. There will be a few runs, but none anywhere near optimal.

C-can you wear the upper half of the gerudo outfit with those?

It's alright, a bit more feedback on current durability might be nice. But there are so few times when you absolutely have to see a fight all the way to the end that running out of weapons is a difficult argument for me to follow. Most of the time I kill the enemies in a group with whatever the first enemy drops.

A quality of life type thing that'd be neat is if they had an acheologist/ anthopologist NPC that was running a museum or something that I could bring the various weapons to to be displayed and purchase a 'replica' of whenever I needed it with some cooldown to restock. I'd like it a lot more.

Sort of like a physical version of the compendium.

>impossible

Never say that regarding speed runs. There's probably some crazy fuck figuring it all out as we speak.

I heard that an All Story Quests run landed on 5 and a half hours. Obviously the runs aren't optimized yet, but considering you have to cover every inch on the map for Korok seeds, I could imagine the run going up to at least 20 hours.

If you're fond of guardian weapons but don't have the amiibo, the ones in the tests of strength are also respawned by blood moon, and will even start having buffs on them

how the hell do you get fairies to respawn

it's been several blood moons and they're not showing up at the fairy fountains anymore

help

which gerudo outfit? vai or voe? i have a blue top and gold top for vai

Ganon's swords from wind waker aren't in right? What about phantom ganon?

Could be an interesting take on the upcoming Story DLC.

Although I'm half-expecting a prequel where you accompany Zelda to the Springs of Power/Courage/Wisdom, or perhaps Link finding the Master Sword with some kind of Pendant of Virtue/Spiritual Stone shrines.

They already have non-ruined models for Hyrule Castle and a lot of other landmarks, so it's possible that they'll get reused in prequel DLC.

do you have some already?
The game doesn't seem to want to let you have more than 5

where can you buy a re programmable amiibo?

I'd rather an Adventure of Link style DLC where it takes place a little while after and the final boss is Link's Shadow.

>All of the champions are so fucking awesome.
they have about as much depth as a bowl of water

I have 3

It makes sense thematically
It's kind of obnoxious gameplay wise for the first 1/3 of the game.

how big is the bowl

What is your honest opinion on the fact that she was to be Link's wife?

That's the limit.

Don't forget about the Tetraforce:
▲ ▲
▲ ▲

...

Would the kids come out full Zora?

Four swords Switch when?

Thanks.

She must've thought she had a good chance if she made the armor for him.

I want to be Link and tell Hyrule and Zelda to fuck themselves while I fuck my fishwife.

Makes me wonder about the baby making process

>Tetra
>Force

How the fuck is there 0 knowledge about the classified envelope?

is anybody else desperately searching for a use for this item?

which champion has the smelliest feet?

I'd force Tetra to get away from me and never come near me again if you know what I mean.

Link is like super gay in this game. I bet he only takes the Goron dick.

Mipha's feet probably smell like fish. I doubt rocks smell like anything. But hey, Revali probably shits himself all the time because he's a fucking bird, so maybe it's him.

Where'd you find it?

Urbosa no doubt.

It's probably the second best durability system I've seen.

Most of the time durability is utter shit, it's either irrelevant and never affects you, or it's a distraction every 25 minutes forcing you to stop what you're doing to repair your favorite weapon with various resources that might be annoying to get or go to a place where where it can be repaired.

Since the entire point is that all weapons are disposable, they respawn and thus are in most cases easy to procure both of the above problems are averted.
It's basically the system from Dead Rising, the difference is that in Dead Rising it's way easier to get what you need since you don't need to travel as much.

I like it but it can be annoying sometimes because you need to travel a lot in some cases to get something you want and for a while your inventory is small.

Didn't expect it coming from nintendo

Symin gives it to you for completing the Hyrule Compendium.

Mipha thread, honestly.

IT'S A SIDON THREAD NOW MOTHERFUCKER

MORE ART WHEN

Does she have lewd thoughts about Link?

Do the amiibo tunics have set bonuses? I'd figure it out for myself but I've only seen one shooting star.

link

She was going to tell zelda how to use her powers in that scene, but stalled for fuck ever, thanks reggie.

worst voice acting I've ever heard

Did she rob you?

She took my semen from me, yes.

I bet she lays eggs externally (like a fish) and then you either fuck her or get bj, and then pull out at the last second and bust one all over the eggs

How the fuck do I get a rock up here?

no
post cute links
here's one of three i did

...

octo ballon

So, I've been compiling "timeline support" notes casually while I'm playing and I'd like to share what I have so far:


>Adult Era
-Rock Salt mentions an "ancient ocean".
-Rito are here/Rito can only specifically exist if the Great Sea happened.
-Hyrule plateau was said to be where the kingdom of Hyrule was born: this makes sense geographically as the wind waker hylians built their civilization on mountain tops and as the sea receded would have likely moved and spread out to lower ground- making this a point of inception/heritage.

>Child Era
-Princess Zelda specifically mentions, "either skyward bound, lost in time, or through the twilight" when doing Link's knighting ceremony. If this shit hadn't happened to the hero; they couldn't/wouldn't have mentioned it.
-The Blood Moon event has a similar aesthetic/atmosphere to what was established in Twilight Princess.
-The Arbiter grounds is an actual, physical, place that still exists in relatively the same place; although buried almost completely in sand.

>Decline Era
-The 'oldest' current era/timeline with the most degraded & corrupted ganon; calamity ganon fits in most well with decline ganon.
-Lynels only appear in the decline era and the compendium says they're an "enemy that has existed since ancient times."
-The only tunic you 'naturally' get barring dlc is the same tunic link wears in a link to the past/link's awakening, etc.
-MASSIVE fucking Whale Skeletons of what could possibly be "Wind Fish" can be found scattered across the map in remote locations.

>Merged Timeline
-We have both Rito & Zora; which shouldn't be possible as wind waker's ocean drove the other to extinction due to being a succeeding species.
-Numerous locations are named after historical figures, heroes, etc, from across multiple timelines and eras.
-The Sheikah Shrine Dungeons were most likely based off of or inspired by dungeons in previous eras given similiarities. The God's Tower and it's boss especially.

5?
I stopped seeing new fairies when I had 3.

In fact, when I had 2, there was only one fluttering around the Kakariko Fairy Fountain. Once I caught it, I've never seen another fairy again, even though I do nothing but cut grass.

I don't mean to be a begging faggot but do any of you have a save file with all the Great Plateau Shrines completed? Mind uploading it so I can use it?

part 2

Friendly reminder that the voice director for this game is the same one who did Mighty Number 9.

Threesome with Link art when?

and 3
also these were resized and cropped before you ask

I guess that explains it
all the actors must've been community drama-tier amateurs

Well, the Dark Link model exists... so yeah. Why not?

i want link's sweaty butt on my face desu

Anyone else have trouble solving shrines because you forget what abilities you have?

This is kinda hot to be honest

>-Hyrule plateau was said to be where the kingdom of Hyrule was born: this makes sense geographically as the wind waker hylians built their civilization on mountain tops and as the sea receded would have likely moved and spread out to lower ground- making this a point of inception/heritage.
It's one of the rocks from Skyloft.
The giant goddess statue is the one that lands in the Sealed Grounds.

Also the Gate of Time is where the Temple of Time is built.

I want a sand seal.

What the fuck is this shit?

It became day

Shit why didn't I think of that. I've been trying to stasis launch one up there for half an hour.

I was using balloons all the time in the jungle too to lift up those big slabs covering treasure chests.

It was 3:45
