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.

Dark Souls is always the right answer

but i actually like ds3 and i don't want to ruin it by following breath of the wild

I immediately went back to DS3 as soon as the end credits finished of BOTW


Enjoyed it more tbh

that honestly makes so little sense to me

that was my first labyrinth. i wasnt even promted to go there, i was just having a blast exploring the desert and saw a weird formation on my map so i investigated. probably my favourite moment in my whole playthrough, actually.

how good is the gerudo desert portion of the game tho

Very good. The world doesn't deserve games as good as this.

Currently trying to look for the Lover's Pond you brought up earlier, because I heard a couple of Gerudo ladies talking about someone who wandered off there. Might as well take care of that.

i'm so glad i didnt watch any trailers for this game save the first one, and i'm so glad i went to gerudo first. i cant even begin to explain the giddy feeling i felt when i was instructed to harness a sand seal for the first time.

the lover pond, it's real easy to miss, i got lucky finding it a couple days ago

what was your main strategy for taking down the moldugas?

After the initial "oh fuck" moment of encountering one for the first time, the first thing I noticed was that it only popped up under certain conditions--so I tried luring it with footsteps, then meat, then remote bombs. Remote bombs did the trick; the blast caused it to rise up. From then on, I just used bomb arrows. My favorite.

On the surface, I typically just use the weapon with the best damage:disposability ratio. Normally a two-handed weapon, because the spinning strike is pretty devastating against stationary opponents.

I actually fought one before I spoke to the lady who needed molduga guts, so that was cool. I like when that happens.

Oh, about the labyrinth--I had an abundance of Moblin teeth at the time, so I tried leaving a trail of them to keep me from getting lost. Bad idea--they dissipate if there's too many of them at once. So yeah, never try that.

interesting. i beat naboris before i defeated my first molduga so i ended up spamming urbosa's fury to defeat them the first time... i feel as tho i utilised my sheikah runes a lot less than other people did initially which i regret. oh well.

ingenious idea though. i tried using markers on my map instead but i ran out far too quickly.

Even a good game like BOTW isn't enough to get me off my Dark Souls high, I went immediately back to it with open arms haha.

got all the shrines finished but there are too many seeds for me to sit down and get them all

i mean, i plan to 100% the game eventually, but i only plan on going through that painful process once. so i'm waiting for the switch where i can replay the game before i go hard.

its a bit annoying that the compendium and side quests dont actually count for any percentages though.

You can only do it once per day and it's not a guarantee you get one of those each time so it takes some save loading. So far I have the Twilight Bow, Epona, and the Trousers of Twilight. Some of the other items you get are just good weapons or shields so I've settled for less before.

I just want the Tunic of Twilight tbh, everything else I could live without. I have 2 solid horses, and the classic green cap and hylian trousers so I can recreate the look of classic look decently well with the TP shirt. Sheik's mask would be cool though.

Wouldn't say no to the Ocarina of Time clothes or the Fierce Diety stuff either.

Overall this amiibo stuff is such bullshit. Some of them are 100 bucks on Amazon.

Skyward Sword Link is probably the coolest rendition of classic Link, though. I really like Link's design in BoTW, but in terms of recreating his classic green stuff, SS did it best, IMO.

I'm hoping theres a DLC pack in the future or something... as much as I'd hate that, I really want some of these cool outfits.
