I'd suggest a walkthrough on the first DLC quest with the Master Sword (Trial of the Sword, I think?), as that can get pretty frustrating on your own. Full disclosure, I used a walkthrough for those trials, especially the last one. Playing for a significant amount of time and then dying and going back to the beginning of a trial is just the worst.

@Ralizah cheers, defo not Gona do a full run-through of the main game now though 😅. I honestly played it for like 3 months the first time around!

Thanks for the other bits of info, might have to just give it a bit of a play and try and get used to it. It's a weird sensation to revisit a game that I might as well have been breathing for 3 months like 5 or 6 years ago and just not have a clue how anything works now

@kms108 @mjharper thanks, walkthrough/video guide might make sense. Just as a crash course to get me familiar with the game again

I have to learn it again just to play late game content but don't get the gentle difficulty curve of the base game 😅

See ya!

@ralphdibny In the botw pause menu, press R to get to the save, load, options menu. In there, there is an Abilities list. So, you can see a list of many of Link's abilities, and you can open each one to see what the controls are for each of those abilities.

Also, if you start a new game with another switch user, and just play the four shrines of the great plateau section, each of those four shrines are where you are introduced to each of link's sheika slate abilities. That might be enough to get you mostly up to speed? Since you've played the great plateau before, you still probably remember enough to breeze through it in about an hour. After the four shrines, I think the old guy gives you the paraglider. Or, actually, I think he does a "one more thing" move, and gives you one more shrine or mission before giving the glider. He's a rascal.😉

@WoomyNNYes haha thanks yeah doing the great plateau again might be a good idea actually. Will have to see how it works because I'm playing on Wii U. I could just do it in Master mode and stop after the great plateau. I feel like I will be too tempted to carry on though 😅

Cheers for the tips!

See ya!

@blindsquarel yeah how could you tell? 😂

I actually haven't watched the programme in a few years tho tbh so I'm not up to date on it!

See ya!

@ralphdibny
You only have the best character in the show as your username.

Don’t watch the new season. Other than episode 9 and 10, it might be the worst superhero content ever made.

@blindsquarel 😂 I actually fell off the show around the time they sacked off Dibbers, he was kind of the heart of the show at that point giving much needed levity to proceedings

See ya!

@ralphdibny
Thats honestly the perfect time to quit watching. After season six the show gets really, really bad.

@blindsquarel there has been 3 seasons since I stopped watching?! 😳 That's a lot to catch up on if I ever decide to

I think I remember it already being pretty bad tbh. Ralph kept it going for me, a shining light in the mopey dark hell that they had made for Barry Allen. They did the same thing in Supergirl as well, both main characters started off really funny and likeable and just became a chore to watch after a few seasons with the shows being propped up by the amazing supporting characters.

Maybe one day I'll get back to watching the rest of the Arrowverse! Should be easy enough to work out where I was at least!

See ya!

@ralphdibny
Yeah, it wasn’t great even during season six. ( although the bloodwork arch was solid) Arrow is the only show that didn’t get to the point where it was just plain bad. It definitely had its low points, but it always rebounded.

@blindsquarel I think arrow started bad and got good once it (and me) embraced how ridiculous it was and started having some fun with itself. I much preferred the back half of the show with the new team and stuff.

(I say all my criticism of the Arrowverse with the utmost love and respect because I really did love it - I'm just not blind to its shortcomings)

I was also a big fan of Julian in the Flash, I know he turned out to be the baddy but he was easily my favourite flash companion until Ralph came along. If they had found a way to bring him back after they ditched Dibbers then I think I would have carried on watching it

Does anyone else think that BotW is better than TotK?

@dionysos283 I’m in that camp, there’s a bit more flab to Kingodm Sad 😢 rather than being lean and mean in Breath. It kinda reminds me of a welterweight boxer packing on muscle to fight as a heavyweight, they will still knock you the fudge out as they are bigger but aren't as swift as before.

It would be a different story if Kingdom Sad 😢 allowed me to ultra hand villagers torsos, horse limbs, zonai devices and monster body parts to ride around on!

Yeah, I love the relative simplicity of Breath and the feelings of loneliness and nostalgia it evokes. On paper Tears is an improvement in almost every way, but it feels a little cluttered and unfocused.
And just as an aside: reusing the same map really broke the sense of exploration, that made Breath so magical and special for me.

It was an interesting experiment to get a direct asset-reuse sequel to a groundbreaking open-world Zelda game. But now that we experienced it, I think I can safely say that, if it takes 6 years to develop such a sequel, then I'd much rather have a completely new Zelda game with a completely new overworld to explore.

I brought the question to the BOTW general thread.

Good evening everyone, I just finished all the main missions of the game (15-15 if I'm not mistaken) but after defeating ganon if I return from the last save to continue after the credits it gives me 13 out of 15 missions completed even if in actually there are 14 out of 15 completed, why? I would have understood 14 out of 15 (yes and no) since the last of ganon is missing, but why 13? Especially resulting in 14 completed, thanks in advance for your replies 🙋

This is normal, I believe. After you beat ganon, the game world goes back to just before you fought gannon. I think it was a design choice, so people could continue exploring the BOTW and have fun fighting enemies, or so you can finish up side quests. That's how I understand it. That's how the game has been since launch.

@ilFrArMillo So, in your game, other than Destroy Ganon, what other quest is marked as not-completed?

I checked my game that I defeated ganon on. Destroy Ganon is the only main quest marked not completed - that I knew. There are 14 main quests marked as completed. Then there are also 5 DLC quests in the main quest list, they all say "EX" in their titles - those are also completed. If you haven't bought the DLC, then you won't have the five EX quests in your main quest list.
