the Wii-U is obsolete, go with the Switch.

For real though, how did we get to a point as consumers where we label a game console with almost five years of solid exclusive games at a competitive price as 'obsolete' over a new console with almost no attractive games and a bumpy launch?

It's obsolete now that it no longer supports new games, though. And there weren't many games to buy a Wii-U for in the first place anyway.

- Liberated Divine Beast Vah Naboris
- Scaled Mt. Lanaryu and saved Naydra (which was cool as fuck)
- Finally completed the climbing set

Gonna explore the desert next, and then I'm headed for Death Mountain. 46 shrines, 102 seeds.

Gerudo section was dope. I loved the stealth section, but everyone I've spoken to so far said they hated it.

If you just got climbing gear why not do Death Mountain first? Geography?

Just a few shrines and side quests to take care of.

Got all the Shrines completed. The reward for doing that could be a little cooler, but... the journey was more important than the destination, I guess.

Working on upgrading a few pieces of clothing to the maximum, then taking on Ganon a third time before returning to Ocarina of Time and/or Horizon: Zero Dawn.

I resent the hell out of the lack of appreciation some people have for the horses in this game.

A lot of people just whine about how they control and whatnot.

They've been 100% fine for me. I love how they run along tracks on their own if they're tame enough.

Literally what. Horses are excellent in this game. lol

That feature is a beautiful one, really makes it easy to look at the scenery or look at something else while travelling.

Wait someone else named their horse lightning?

Would it happen to be a white horse too?

I've had some really annoying control issues even with 100% bonded horses, like running in the opposite direction or stopping suddenly. This happens almost every time I use one, to the point that I don't use them except in open areas because of how often they run themselves off ledges or into walls.

literally never had any of these issues

the point is, they're still their own beings--you aren't controlling the horse; you're telling it where to go, but it's still a living thing with a mind of its own

i think people generally don't like that, but i think it's ingenious

i concur with turkey, and i use horses whenever i can cuz i don't fast travel

it seems to be speciric areas, though. the lanayru promenade, the fork in the road at akkala span and akkala parade ground ruins, heading east at the seres scablands... these are the specific areas i can think of where my horse, without fail, fucks up.

So, at what point can we freely talk about everything in the game without spoiler tagging it?

Yeah so I'm pretty much done playing this game. There's not much left to do except upgrade my armour but I can't be assed to collect 15 fucking Energetic Rhino Beetles and 10 Star Fragments.

Trying to decide what gme I want to play next because it will undoubtedly not be as good as this one. Maybe Zero Dawn, or go back to DS3.

You know what actually sucks to control?

Sand seals.

Starting playing Dark Souls 3 in anticipation of the last DLC and realized I quit playing right after starting NG+2, and I'm really rusty. Gotta beat the whole game again just to play the DLC.
