Posted February 18, 2017 Worth mentioning that there's two other guides for $15 and $25. I just find it funny that you can get a guide that's more expensive than the actual game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted February 18, 2017 I don't like the flurry rush, it looks to remove any form of challenge from a fight. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 18, 2017 I don't like the flurry rush, it looks to remove any form of challenge from a fight. Doesn't that only activate if you dodge an attack at the last second? Seems like a Bayonetta style reward for skilled play to me. And I'm fine with that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah but it looks simple enough to do, as was witch time... but this looks too big a help really. I dunno, it's only a minor gripe.

Posted February 18, 2017 I just hope this game isn't going to leave me reaching for a guide / walk through every 5 minutes like previous Zelda's do to me. I'm aware I'm a bit of a moron with Zelda games but part of the reason I never finish them is coz I get stuck / bored wandering round haha. I'm hoping I can change my fortunes with Breath of the Wild. Not as if I'll have any other Switch game to sink time into from launch. :P Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted February 18, 2017 Breaking news: The legend of Zelda: Breath of the wild will be the first Zelda game to feature Dutch subtitles! .. .. As we Dutch would say, "joepie". I don't give a shit, but I guess it'll help some noobs out. But it's funny to see / hear Eiji Aonuma speak some Dutch for the occasion: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'd have a break from playing, then pick it up a few months later and forget all the game mechanics, and wouldn't be able to progress because I'd forgotten you could use X, Y and Z in whatever way.

Yup. I always feel so stupid playing Zelda as I just get impatient when I don't know what I'm doing within 5 minutes :p so I end up playing with my laptop on my knee looking at a guide. Hope this doesn't end up the same but we'll see. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 18, 2017 If anything with it being more of an open-world design that hopefully won't happen as much, and your idle wandering will find you embarking on new mini-adventures! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted February 21, 2017 So, the whole "you can go to the final boss immediately" thing got me thinking it might be a fun challenge to try to do this when I first get the game. Anyone else up for this? Just for bragging rights, we'll compare how far we get. - Only for first-timers, which at this point is everyone (doing this after completing the game normally will make it just a speedrun, and part of this particular challenge is that you don't know anything yet. - Perma death. You die, your challenge is over. - More or less a straight line to Ganon. You can do some minimal item collecting and acclimatizing to the controls, clear out enemies that are directly in your way, but no dungeons or shrines or anything else optional and unnecessary to reach your goal. I'm sure a lot of you would like to have their first Zelda experience be "genuine", but you're going to miss a lot of story this way anyway, plus I totally expect to die long before I even reach Ganon, so I don't think this will diminish my "canon playthough" experience in any way.

Posted February 21, 2017 I'm sure I'll be terrible at the game and will die. Back on WW for Gamecube I never died or came close to dying. Then for the WiiU HD Remaster, I was terrible. Shows how much my game playing abilities have fallen. But sure. I'm sure I'll make it to the Temple of Time before dying... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 21, 2017 Im very much looking forward to dying from something that isn't a boss - gone are the days of jumping down from Goron City to Dodongo's Cavern and only losing half a heart. The many ways to die will be a game in itself. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted February 21, 2017 I'm going to try and avoid everything. But I am curious to hear what people think of it. Risky thing to look for though... Im pretty ignorant to anything outside of the E3 demo and recent demos thankfully. I feel around this time before SS' release I we knew quiet a bit, including Fi and the Master Sword.
