(I have over 400 hours on the same account on BotW and still haven't even 50%ed it despite me getting all the shrines.) Also my dad just showed me a video of a guy who basically built a battle-mech-suit thing. So I think we still have lots of stuff to do for however many years it is until the next one. I'm going to see if I can find the video. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunkum Posted May 23, 2023 Report Share Posted May 23, 2023 It's great and I'm loving it, but I feel like there are some missed opportunities here. For one thing it doesn't do a very good job (so far - but i'm not super far) distinguishing itself from BotW. the Shrines are a different color and different puzzles, but mechanically are basically identical to BotW shrines. the main dungeons (or the one i've beaten anyway) are pretty similar too. I also wish they'd pulled more from Skyward Sword when designing the sky islands. hyrule is loaded with recognizable landmarks from prior games, but i haven't seen any obvious references to Skyward Sword among the sky islands - and i've explored MOST of the surface map. Maybe i'm missing something here, Skyward Sword is one of my least favorite Zeldas so I don't recall it as well as others, but I don't think so. its a great game, but there are just little things like that that make me thin it could be even better 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frustration Posted May 26, 2023 Report Share Posted May 26, 2023 I am not done, but I'm loving it. Spoiler Also can we talk about how much of an Amp secret stones are? Like yikes that's insane levels of power. Though I do have more questions than when I started. Who made the bargained statues? Where are the Zonai now? Who are the Rules of Owls/Boars etc? Who are those strange statues in the depths depicting? How the crap was Raru the first king of Hyrule? Like that breaks so much about the lore I can't even. The only explanation I can think of is that this is a new kingdom of Hyrule, which begs the question of what happened to the old one, and also why they named a a second war the imprisoning war? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Channelknight Fadran Posted May 26, 2023 Report Share Posted May 26, 2023 My theory of where this fits in the timeline: (Not a bunch of game spoilers but... y'know. Spoilered) Spoiler I don't think Rauru and the Zonai actually founded Hyrule. At least, not originally. It wouldn't have been the original founding after Skyward Sword, but a significant re-founding after Hyrule fell at some point or another in the timeline. It's happened before, most notably in the Adult Era Timeline (otherwise known as ToonTime) with Hyrule being buried by the ocean before being reestablished for Spirit Tracks, and again in Zelda II after Link beats Ganon in TLoZ and restores balance to the force or whatever. Reason why I think this is the case is largely because of the existence of the rito and gerudo. Those, the Master Sword, etc. all point to the unification timeline as the leading theory on how the heck BotW fits in the first place. I imagine that sometime after the timelines merged, Hyrule would've gotten its butt kicked (by Ganon, probably) and eventually forgotten over generations of lost societal development... up until the gods send the zonai and Rauru to recreate the kingdom, establishing him as the "First King of Hyrule" for this iteration. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
