@ValhallaOutcast Ohhhh, that really has to hurt. I never even thought of that happening! What a waste of 4 orbs

Getting around is rather important, and I assume the life meter maxes at 2 rows? Those 3 missing hearts aren't going to make much difference.

True but I have climbed and paraglided everywhere on 2 stamina rings

Intresting, you can't even reclaim the heart peice now as you're no longer allowed to enter the dungeon otherwise you could of gone to the devil goddess statue and removed a heart for more wheel pieces.

@ValhallaOutcast Some of those, I'm not even sure how you managed to DO them before the bests. Specifically Naboris, stomping around one or two shrines.....I would have thought you'd get fried by lightening (and either way couldn't see) before doing the shrine over in the desert.)

@jump Yeah, I never even considered the possibility of not being able to pick up a heart like that....apparently neither did Aonuma

I'm thinking of starting Zelda again but don't want to lose my completed game & wondered if it's possible to set up another account & start a new game, would i lose all my saved data or is it possible to have 2 accounts playing the same game?? Hope that makes sense lol, thanks

@Jen10 you can make another account to start over that won't effect you first account

@ValhallaOutcast,

I tried it that way first too, but it didn't work for me. The stamps worked though. Maybe I could have started using stamps close to the shrines. I don't know, but I finished them anyway. The mazes where fun. They where true mazes, with very large walls.

72 shrines! Wahoo! I swear if this was any other franchise I would have killed Ganon already. Finally met the horse fairy ...W T H. If I was a horse and that was my guardian...I'd want to stay dead.

@Ryu_Niiyama Idk, wouldn't you want a terrifying guardian? It just means less people are likely to mess with ya! But tbh I did totally freak out when I found it. I thought I accidentally unleashed a demon or something! XD

I've heard the Korok compared to coins in Super Mario Bros; they're dotted around almost everywhere to add interest to the environment, but heaven knows you don't have to collect every single bleeding one. I got enough to max out my inventory slots, but at no point was I tempted to go for 900. Even the game devs clearly think your a bit weird if you pull that off, judging by the 'reward' they prepared.

It's like going to a buffet and feeling the need to eat every single type of food on offer. You don't. Options aren't the same as obligation. If you commit to just collecting enough to max out your inventory (a more realistic challenge), then it's not a sin that the game gives you 441 different ways to do that. Or, to be mathematically accurate, 900!/(441!*459!) different ways to do that, which is a number so big I can't find anything that can calculate it.

I mean, the coin analogy isn't perfect - Mario doesn't keep track how what percentage you've collected after all - but I think it's a more helpful way to think of things than some sort of necessary Easter Egg hunt. It's perfectly fine to put more content in a world than you realistically expect players to find. If it weren't there, the world would feel a lot more empty when travelling between the core points of the game.

You don't need to read every dialogue box, you don't need to cut every blade of grass, and you don't need to collect every Korok seed. If you like wandering around and uncovering them, then great. If not, then you should probably put the game down and go for a walk or something. It'd be a shame to ruin something you loved just to feed some reasonless obsession.

That said, if I get the DLC, I'll definitely have a go at tracking down a couple more. I quite like wandering around, and the seeds are something nice to look out for while doing that.

Very true. I may not get them all on one play, but am thinking more in terns of repay value. Once you've done everything else in the game, t's nice to still have things to do whenever you come back to it. I've already started playing other games and dipping back into breath of the wild (rather than doing what I normally do and stay glued to the whole thing and not touch another game until I'm 100% done). Didn't think I'd do it this way, but when there's this much to get in order to be a true 100%, I think I'll lose my mind much less this way. (and miss out on less games too, come to think of it). Still intend to 100% it eventually though, just the approach this time will be different, and alot more relaxed.

Real Zelda players strive to complete the factorial challenge: Don't just collect everything; collect everything in every order possible, through an infinitesimally high number of playthroughs.

Got married.

@DarthNocturnal ya I think it was OK to not let you in prior to beating the beast, but after you shouldnt have to put on that drag outfit anymore
