If it's possible to play this game "wrongly" then that's probably me. I only build the most basic machines if even at all. For one of the korok seeds I just picked the guy up and carried him to his friend lol

u/Izdoy 2d ago

I "solved" one by just hucking the little guy down the hill and he rolled the entire way to his friend. Laughed my ass off the whole time. Started accidentally, just kept rolling with it (pun intended)

One Korok seed, I just put the bastard on my horse harness and dragged his ass to his friend as if he was Hector's corpse in the Iliad.

u/OneCat6271 2d ago

is this not the way?

i did that for most of the first ones i found, him bouncing along behind my horse.

u/f-ingsteveglansberg 2d ago

First couple I found, the friend was across a river with a single bridge guarded by a Talos with a Bokoblin fortress built in or on the other side of a gorge. Was surprised this lad's friend was just down the road. Could have built a comfy carriage for him. Or even two wheels on a plank of wood. Instead decided to drag him along as if he just killed Patroclus.

u/stormy2587 2d ago

I do the same. I have done this for most korok seeds. I recently strapped one to a wing with a fan on it and he flew him to what I thought was his destination. Only to find a moblin fort. I cleared the fort. And was like where the fuck is this dude’s friend. Realized I had messed up and keyed in on the wrong smoke signal and then just carried him to where I need to go.

I like seeing all the contraptions people make. And occasionally I’ll mess around a bit but building something elaborate can be pretty time consuming.

u/TimeTimeTickingAway 2d ago

Of course not! I'm jn the same boat and I prefer it that way. This game is a 'build your own adventure' type sandbox, and I'd much rather my shitty creations be uniquely my own than copy and pasted off of YouTube.

u/lifepuzzler 2d ago

Using the bare minimum materials is the name of the game. It's way more fun to strap yourself to a single block with a couple of rockets and fans and a smattering of batteries than it is to farm it all up and make some sort of sophisticated flying machine.

u/animalbancho 2d ago

Well, I don’t know.

Both are pretty fun.

20

u/lifepuzzler 2d ago

Sure! Do whatever you want, it's a self-imposed challenge. The best part of the game is that you can spend hours planning a perfect build OR just wing it and still get it done either way.

u/TorrBorr 2d ago

Especially when the game culls, very aggressively, any of your builds without much of any level of consistency, making very complicated builds that other simpler solutions can do is just a waste of time unless you really get into that kind of thing. I already don't really like forced build mechanics in games as is, but I find it tolerable in TotK. I just hap hazardly throw something together and see "what sticks". After having my hover "bikes" and boats despawn for whatever reason the game decides this time is the time we delete it from the game, I realized crazy builds just are not reliable. Never know for all that time you spent building it and touch something it will cull it.

5

u/huffalump1 1d ago

Yeah this is a bummer! Even simple builds despawn if you walk away. And I mean, just walking to the next hill or something, still in sight.

That combined with builds not persisting in save games makes it frustrating... But also freeing in a "clean slate" sense, where I don't feel like I'm "wasting" components. It's easier to experiment if it's temporary.

I know there's a build library or something later, Which helps I guess.

For me it was upgrading stuff. Like it's just not fun to farm for gems. Luckly I've already done most of what I wanted, but this will shorten my further game time.

I'm mostly enjoying just building wacky machines, but I'm not going to go and farm charges or anything to do it.

u/shadowyams 2d ago

I’m ok with gems. Talus are easy enough to farm, and their hearts are decent fusion mats. I’m not willing to spend hours waiting on a dragon, though, so I’m staying on 1.1.1 until I’ve gotten all the upgrade mats I need.

u/KevlarGorilla 2d ago

Too many armors were asking for 5 and 10 Red Lizalfos Tails, where at that time I had collected exactly zero. Even after duping for 20 minutes, I just burned through it upgrading armors I wanted to upgrade, and duped some more. No regrets, still having fun!

Great, I was just about to try it out when I discovered how expensive some gear is compared to the amount of rupees you actually come across.

Back to selling my daily amiibo drops I guess?

And everyone online was saying "Nintendo won't patch it, they never do!"

Edit: game was running so it didn't update. Airplane mode activated!

Can anyone advise if closing the game will update? I don't know if Switch downloads updates in the background like other systems do.

13

The switch downloads updates automatically but only updates if you confirm it. It gives you a prompt every time you start the game where the default selection is update so just be careful when you start the game and select "Start software"

Shield-Hop, go into your menu, Hold five items, and then press B + Y at the same time to exit and sort the menu. It keeps the five items you were holding and also drops them onto the ground, giving you more.

It's been patched out.

u/markandyxii 2d ago

It was menu fuckery. Link can't hold an item while shield jumping, so you would hold an item you only have one of with four items of something that was sitting in the last spot in your inventory. If you opened and closed the menu quick enough, when Link dropped the items it would only register the single item as leaving the inventory and duplicate the other four. The only problem was that this only allowed you to dupe up to 20 of the same item because after 21 items were dropped, they would despawn. So you couldn't keep the same item in the final spot of the inventory

u/kevingharvey 1d ago

I'm in the middle. I was never savvy or patient enough to do any botw glitches, but this was too easy to resist. That being said, I set a limit just to sort of make things comfortable starting out, and once I've duped to that, I'm going to update to stop myself from being greedy and to make sure I can still milk the game for a looong time. Played botw a few times a week every week for three years. Planning on doing as much or more with TOTK. Seems like it could really go on forever tbh. I don't think a few extra diamonds will hinder that, but I totally get ignoring the glitch entirely. I was on the fence for a while. I think the patch, and knowing I wasn't online and was therefore able to postpone it, was what made me go ahead and try it.

with as many materials are there are in this game, it's not surprising that people are kinda sad that methods to skip farming some of them are patched

u/wr0ngdr01d 2d ago

Too many materials and not enough of the rare ones IMO. I did all the dungeons, spent a good amount of time on side quests and exploration, found just enough diamonds for one legendary weapon, two small battery upgrades, and too broke to buy gear after buying the set for death mountain. I get they want you to do a lot but cmon - I shouldn’t be approaching the final boss after 100 hours begging for change. The side stuff simply isn’t rewarding enough.

505

u/oneupdouchebag 2d ago

One problem I've had with both games is that I never want to sell many items for rupees because I don't know what will be needed in bulk for a random side quest or for upgrading. That means I mostly rely on what I'm given from rewards/chests/exploring, which really isn't much considering how expensive some items are.

Add in wanting to save stuff to cook and now to fuse and I really don't bother selling anything at all.

195

u/wr0ngdr01d 2d ago

Totally agree. They should have really scaled up rewards as you progress. I almost sold diamonds because I couldn’t afford the fire resistance set when I wanted to do death mountain. Glad I didn’t but now I don’t even want to use the legendary bow so I don’t have to farm more diamonds so it’s just going to be an inventory blocker until I go for ganon

Tip to make things less spooky: drive a vehicle, and throw a giant brightbloom seed onto the vehicle. It gives off tons of light and the light will travel along with you.

Yep, this means that you can go through your overworld map and put a marker on the Depths underneath every shrine you’ve found, and then do the opposite and put a marker on the overworld on top of every light root you found.

Also the big enemies in the depths will often drop one of these too when they die. Things like the stone talus's.

Large zonaite 15 of them will get you 100 crystals at the mines down below from the merchants. So once you have lit up some of the light roots you can farm enemy groups after blood moons and get the ore from them.

That Gerudo Quest with the 7 warriors, which has a pre-requirement quest, and you need like 5 subsequent quests to complete that one, and THEN you do a follow-up quest and all you get is a sapphire....I was so disappointed.

Same! XD. I also read there’s some that don’t give you anything. i was also super disappointed by the rewards for putting Lunelin back together but I guess it’s kind of supposed to be its own reward. Woo an inn, some food, and a game in a town I have no reason to visit again!

u/MimicSquid 1d ago

I think of Lunelin as pretty amazing. For 5 rock salt at the inn you can get 3 gold hearts and an extra disk of stamina, the fisherman gives free fish and a chest with free money, the cafe gives you a cooked food that you don't know of yet (the most useful thing for someone who hates trying to find good recipes), and the chest game has given me free lynel horns on more than one occasion.

All in all, I'm really pleased with the place.

Thwres a huge difference between faeming/grinding and just... exploring. I also just finished all the dungeons, have like 2/3rds of the lightroots and enough shrines for 3 Stam wheels + 15 hearts. I have 7 batteries and 30 something diamonds... i have never gone anywhere to farm anything except fairies.

Seems like people think having a ton of clothes max upgrsded is supposed to be the goal of the game, and are upset that gakes a ton of effort to get? I have 600+ hours in BotW over many plathroughs and have gotten maybe 20 pieces of gear to 4 stars total lol.

Honestly in a single player game I am ok with some glitches. I especially like the wacky ones that aren't game breaking, but will for example launch you like an astronaut or clip you through a wall to explore parts of the game you weren't meant to see.

Hopefully they fix the stupid bug when you’re getting the Shrine Sensor from Robbie. I spent like 20 mins walking, running, walking slowly all over before he finally decided I stood in the right spot.

Edit: very minor spoiler, if you played BOTW it really won’t spoil anything.

u/antracide 1d ago

Same for me, this was the only part of the game where It felt unpolished

6

u/EDDIE_BR0CK 1d ago

I feel like there's been a few more unpolished spots in the game over BOTW.

For one, I had those large square platforms that you can move with Ultrahand stop responding to it, and be stuck in place. I can't be certain if it was just the one location, or the number of times I moved them, but I was definitely able to replicate it.

I'll admit I held strong for 2 weeks after launch but sadly I broke when it looked like I could only get ONE part from certain contructs after every Blood Moon just to upgrade the Zonaite Armor set!! And that's ONE BY ONE EVERY BLOOD MOON if I confused anyone to what I was talking about!!!

u/dcchambers 1d ago

Nah, that's just the way enthusiast communities work. The vast majority of people play without doing any item duping glitches - they just also don't happen to post about that in reddit/other online communities.

I intentionally avoided using the glitch because doing things like that instantly breaks the feeling of progression in a game and honestly, for me at least, ruins the fun. Glad to have the temptation gone at least.

Hey so I have a dumb question. My roommate wants to borrow this game when I get done with it. If he has to update it on his switch does the update go on the cartridge or the different systems? Like if I don't update and he does will I still have the version of the game before this patch.

33

u/ieatbeees 2d ago

It will download the update on his system. The cartridge can't store anything other than the version of the game that it came with

6

u/Caiman86 1d ago

Game card contents are read-only. The card will always have v1.0.

All updates are stored on system storage or SD card and are somehow merged with the game card code at runtime.

one of these days they are going to hopefully patch in the ability to pet dogs and I will be at a tough crossroads, give up the dupe or never be able to show appreciation to all the good doggos

u/fireflydrake 2d ago

I'm so annoyed that after six years of development they STILL didn't add petting the good boys! It was probably the most requested feature I saw in the "small things that don't drastically alter the game" category.

u/snave_ 2d ago

If Metacritic had the guts to include Can You Pet the Dog? as a review source, you can bet they'd fix it. 0/1 score from a reputable reviewer is practically a bloodbath.

It will ask if you wish to update the software, or start it anyways. Auto updates off just prevent all games on your home screen from auto updating.

I'm also kinda sure Nintendo could force users to update the game at some point.

Late edit: Just realized a vital word was missing, but it seems others got the context right anyways.

Just bought the game yesterday. Absolutely loving it. My 2 year old daughter and I are having a blast flying the wing glider around.

I’m nervous to continue because I’m worried that I won’t have access to this area and I’ve missed chests with clothes etc. should I do more exploring before I proceed?

edit - thanks for clarifying, everyone! We just got our first heart container!

You'll always be able to access everything and every area in the game. The shrines act as fast travel points.

u/Migit78 2d ago

There's no where in the game that you're locked out from.

You can return at any point in the future.

BotW and TotK are great in the aspect of you can do anything in any order you want.

Though you'll have multiple instances of coming up with some way to do x/y/z and know there must've been a better way (a more intended way) just to find it in a chest a week later when it's no longer really helpful.

u/HankScorpio4242 2d ago

Once you complete a shrine, you can always return to it via fast travel. So no worries.

u/stevendavisxx 2d ago

You don’t even have to complete the shrine to access fast travel to that specific shrine! You only need to interact with the pedestal outside of it :)

27

u/carenard 2d ago

something to be wary of if your just activating teleport locations and leaving... the shrines where you have to bring the crystal to them to open... if you start the shrine quest from the crystal, you won't be able to activate the teleport point until you turn it in... but if you start from the shrine it activates the teleport and gives the quest.

I learned this the hard way

u/-Zayah- 2d ago

There isn’t a single area in the game that you can be locked out of, as far as I’m aware. That’s the whole draw of the game, being able to go anywhere and do pretty much anything.

Anything you miss in an area can be picked up later, but honestly I wouldn’t worry myself with getting everything right away. This is a BIG game. Lots of toys to play with and things to do. Take your time and have fun with your daughter!
