I keep 15 of each and sell the rest. I figure more will come along but right now I need arrows and bugs. 3 hours ago, BillyHorrible said: Also: everyone has figured out how to find fairies, right?

Oobedoob S Benubi Posted March 5, 2017 Author Share Posted March 5, 2017 6 minutes ago, angelgrievous said: yeah On fairies: Spoiler Near Kokoriko Village, it's said there is a Great Fairy Fountain. Find it, and you'll find a few fairies as well. I expect other Fountains to have fairies around them as well. Sometimes fairies hide in the grass and show up when you cut the grass, like crickets and lizards. Only spot where I found fairies in the grass was high up around Kokoriko, but perhaps I just had too many now (4) for the game to give me any more. Fairies can be caught normally, no need for bottles! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oobedoob S Benubi Posted March 5, 2017 Author Share Posted March 5, 2017 Did someone say... Dark Souls? Seriously, do not open this spoiler if you want to find out everything for yourself. Spoiler So yeah... I was exploring, about to go to the plateau I saw this morning which was too tall to climb directly (so I spent today walking around to it, even getting to the peaks of the duelling mountains again). I even saw a dragon before... Anyway, I climb up this small plateau, and this rock golem turns to life and starts throwing arms at me. The in-game timer is correct - I spent the better part of an in-game day battling the golem. I used a combination of climbing up and throwing bombs, and shooting fire arrows. Also, some defense-up food for safety. It's so cool, discovering stuff like this... Can't wait to see what else is out there! I love this new Zelda approach. Previously, you were sure that you'd get a new weapon halfway through a dungeon and you would need it to defeat a boss at the end of the dungeon. Now, you don't know what's out there and what you have to be ready for... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I found the Great Fairy Fountain too and managed to find the place to dye my clothes, now Link is all orange, my fav color 10 hours ago, angelgrievous said: Oh no, that simply won't do. Orange isn't cannon at all. Green or bust. /s Take note that I didn't dye the pants green as well (you have to do everything you're wearing at once), it looks right like this. Though I must say that I liked the blue clothes Links was wearing in all those trailers as well. I checked through all the dyes and decided that foe these clothes, green was the best though didn't have a bright blue option. It was this or black. P.S. how they dye your clothes is hilarious.

blazeaire Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 Just finished my first 'major' dungeon and wow the puzzles keep getting better and better capped off with an epic boss fight Actually wanted to ask you guys, do you enjoy the 'puzzling' or the 'combat' aspects more? I feel the puzzles are more unique to Zelda games but the combat is so good too in this game and definitely the best I've ever played in an open world game but ultimately I think the puzzles win out since that requires thinking and you can do them at any level unlike combat where you do need upgrades to face certain enemies as I've found numerous times lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the full package in this game, levelling up for bigger fights while exploring for puzzles. Also spoilers, there are still big dungeons in this game? Peobably to do with the four guardians then but I don't want to know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oobedoob S Benubi Posted March 7, 2017 Author Share Posted March 7, 2017 I tamed a single colored horse His name... Tornado. P.S. yeah I switched to the champion's shirt... Meaning I'm on blue now. My hood is back to its original color, my climbing/cold gear is still green. Might be cool to do a theme coloring like that, so I would think of another color if I ever get heat resistant clothing.

Z1MZUM Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 I'm intruding here as I'm on the Wii U version. With that said, everything that makes Zelda unique is back on a major scale, the switch will be mine in the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed. I thought @blazeaire was exaggerating when declaring it best game evah but I'm in that corner now as well. It's funny because I only liked platformers and racing games until Ocarina Of Time came around. Also, decided to try to go for the Guardians now. Felt like riding to the airship first since I could already see that one. A few distractions later and now I'm at the Zoras...

blazeaire Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 I'm not even that big of a fan of Zelda before this tbh, only played mostly the 2D ones and OoT but have no problem in saying this is definitely my fav game ever with only something like Persona 5 possibly topping it since I prefer RPGs over anything else but still the best open world game I've ever played, I'm playing Horizon currently aswell and even as good as that is, it does not compare to BoTW and the sheer variety of things you can do. 57 minutes ago, BillyHorrible said: Yeah first horse I tried while taking something for extra stamina I had cooked was a success.

Yeah I keep thinking about Sean "No Man's Sky" Murray claiming that his game was all about exploring, and people complaining that exploring has no use if there's nothing to find... Think BOTW handled it a lot better.
