camel's a xunt

The inside of that camel was the only part of the whole game that made me say fuck this shit, I had to leave it

btw I said it over there but it bears repeating: Odyssey is a disappointment

take that back
― ||||||||, Sunday, 18 February 2018 15:28 (six years ago) link
its actually so good,
― ciderpress, Sunday, 18 February 2018 17:01 (six years ago) link
LOL thats exactly why Ive stalled. I have to complete this to be able to complete a shrine quest (I'm only 3 shrines away from completion) and THEN I can go git Ganon. I mean fuck. I spose I could just go get him now. I dont need all 4 champions. Would I be able to try Vah Naboris after I did the main quest?

Just do it Trayce!
― Nhex, Sunday, 18 February 2018 22:26 (six years ago) link
That is, the camel
I couldnt even do it cheating with a fecking YT walkthru ;_;
I have a real shit sense of direction and the spinning tubes confuse my stupid brain.

i never went back after the shitty water boss, just can’t be bothered
― reverse-periscoping (Autumn Almanac), Sunday, 18 February 2018 22:48 (six years ago) link
That boss was the easiest one!
― Stoop Crone (Trayce), Sunday, 18 February 2018 22:56 (six years ago) link
And the bosses are totally worth doing for the champion boons they give you - Miphas extra life spell, and the Rito's airjump are especially useful.
― Stoop Crone (Trayce), Sunday, 18 February 2018 22:57 (six years ago) link
I found wind and water easiest, and yeh the added abilities are super useful
― nxd, Sunday, 18 February 2018 23:23 (six years ago) link
fuck this electro dude
― nxd, Sunday, 18 February 2018 23:24 (six years ago) link
That boss was the easiest one!sure, i wasn’t having fun and just can’t be arsed with it. maybe if i collect enough heart containers or whatever.
― reverse-periscoping (Autumn Almanac), Sunday, 18 February 2018 23:32 (six years ago) link
Well yeah, dont go into the bosses on 3 hearts and no weapons. I didnt even go near them til I had over twice that, the master sword, and some decent armour and powerups.
― Stoop Crone (Trayce), Sunday, 18 February 2018 23:40 (six years ago) link
But I'm also someone who, as Ive said heaps, can just wander around picking mushrooms, galloping on my souped-up black steed (he has the cool Ancient saddle that means I can teleport-call him!) and staring off into space from a cliff, Brian Cox-styles.
― Stoop Crone (Trayce), Sunday, 18 February 2018 23:41 (six years ago) link
ganon......... done. what a game
― belcalis almanzar (||||||||), Saturday, 3 March 2018 10:28 (six years ago) link
only 19.60% complete... fffffffuuuuuuu-...
― belcalis almanzar (||||||||), Saturday, 3 March 2018 10:40 (six years ago) link
FINALLY GOT THE DESERT BEAST DONE ARRRRGH.
...I had to follow a youtube step by step to do it :/ how in gods name are the puzzles in that camel obvious to anyone!?
― Stoop Crone (Trayce), Sunday, 4 March 2018 01:20 (six years ago) link
it was challenging for me. Partly because it was boring.
― Dat Login was the dname u doofus (Sufjan Grafton), Sunday, 4 March 2018 05:27 (six years ago) link
It was far too unnecessarily elaborate. That bit especially with the 3 or 4 metal blocks you had to slide around in 3 jillion combos before it all lit up the electrix... how could anyone work that out? I couldnt even have FOUND that bit without the bloody walkthru.
ANyway the boss dude after all that wasnt so hard, I guess. Now I've unlocked the new DLC Champions Ballad stuff so Ive more to do before finishing Ganon off yay.
― Stoop Crone (Trayce), Sunday, 4 March 2018 07:28 (six years ago) link
Any chance you could post a link to the YouTube vid you used?
― nate woolls, Sunday, 4 March 2018 09:28 (six years ago) link
every time I see a lynelhttps://youtu.be/gP9C3V5w8NE
― ||||||||, Sunday, 4 March 2018 20:18 (six years ago) link
Nate: this is the one I used but its not the best, he speeds up a lot of the bits where hes picking the map rotations. But he skips bothering with all the chests, so its a good quick guide:

I bought Odyssey and I played it for half an hour and went back to playing zelda for a week. I guess I missed my horse.
― Chuck_Tatum, Monday, 5 March 2018 02:16 (six years ago) link
I watched that video and literally have no idea what's going on.
― Josh in Chicago, Monday, 5 March 2018 05:06 (six years ago) link
Right!? Thats how fricking confusing that puzzle/dungeon is. Pointlessly so, if you ask me.
― Stoop Crone (Trayce), Monday, 5 March 2018 08:36 (six years ago) link
(the fact he speeds half of it up doenst help tbh)
thought all the dungeons were kinda dumb and hard. used a guide on all of them. used a guide for lots of stuff really (kilton, tarry town, master sword). some shrine puzzles. life’s too short
― ||||||||, Monday, 5 March 2018 09:28 (six years ago) link
What's interesting (to me, anyway) is the dichotomy between good combat and good puzzling. My bf sailed through half the game that was about fighting-- he went to Zora first and beat that first lynel with four hearts after less than ten tries. My mom collected 80-90 of the puzzle-oriented shrines, and was able to master the dungeons like immediately, but couldn't do any of the "test of strength" shrines or the dungeon bosses. Well balanced imo!
― flamboyant goon tie included, Monday, 5 March 2018 13:21 (six years ago) link
i haven't found a shrine puzzle that stumped me yet, the only found but unfinished ones i have are some major tests of strength that i didn't have the gear for at the time i found them.
― ciderpress, Monday, 5 March 2018 13:27 (six years ago) link
I'm pretty crap at both - puzzling and fighting - but I love exploring. I spent the whole weekend in the Hebra Mountains just randomly climbing up things without advancing the story. Fun! I found the lonesome pine from the "Bird in the Mountains" trial, but more by accident than design.
Even after six weeks I'm still really crap at fighting. I just end up running rings around the baddie then getting shot when I run out of breath, or I get tense and keep pushing down the right joycon stick and opening the Sheikah slate while I'm being attacked.
― Chuck_Tatum, Monday, 5 March 2018 15:45 (six years ago) link
I also - after six weeks! - just figured out that climbing up the towers unlocks the maps for the area. DUUUUUHHHHHHHHHHH.
― Chuck_Tatum, Monday, 5 March 2018 15:46 (six years ago) link
lol
― Dat Login was the dname u doofus (Sufjan Grafton), Monday, 5 March 2018 17:10 (six years ago) link
I used to accidental crouch mid battle. Have never pulled out the slate.
― Dat Login was the dname u doofus (Sufjan Grafton), Monday, 5 March 2018 17:12 (six years ago) link
lol chuck thats like the first thing you have to do :D
― Stoop Crone (Trayce), Monday, 5 March 2018 23:59 (six years ago) link
And yeah I'm always accidentally crouching. I also never got the hang of the fecking flurry rush either.
accidental crouching should at least confuse the enemy. why force us into conventional fighting modes, nintendo?
― Dat Login was the dname u doofus (Sufjan Grafton), Tuesday, 6 March 2018 00:03 (six years ago) link
immediately hit me with your bat after the second accidental crouch, sure.
― Dat Login was the dname u doofus (Sufjan Grafton), Tuesday, 6 March 2018 00:04 (six years ago) link
it was getting really stressful having all those NPC side quest conversations, the "I hear there's a secret surprise in X wood by Y mountain just east of Z river and [twee name] bridge", and I was thinking "Where are all these places??? Am I supposed to write this down like an old text adventure map???"
Anyway, I was super enjoying it while paying it wrong for six weeks, and now it's even better!
― Chuck_Tatum, Tuesday, 6 March 2018 01:47 (six years ago) link
My only other confusion is the shrine radar - sometimes the shrines are SO far away from where it starts bleeping, I feel like I must've found a second shrine. But I guess the radar is a bit tempremental too.
― Chuck_Tatum, Tuesday, 6 March 2018 01:50 (six years ago) link
Also I never sleep now and am officially dead
there are underground shrines that beep when you are near the shrine, but you are actually far from the entrance to, for example, a cave leading to the shrine.
― Dat Login was the dname u doofus (Sufjan Grafton), Tuesday, 6 March 2018 01:58 (six years ago) link
Oh yah those ones did my head in. Forbidden Temple especially.
― Stoop Crone (Trayce), Tuesday, 6 March 2018 02:09 (six years ago) link
Anyone says anything like that to me, and its a quick hit on the image capture button, and its all saved..
― my opinionation (Hamildan), Wednesday, 7 March 2018 13:44 (six years ago) link
[Forehead slap] Of course! Thank you
― Chuck_Tatum, Wednesday, 7 March 2018 14:52 (six years ago) link
Omg the Forbidden Temple, serious high point
― flamboyant goon tie included, Wednesday, 7 March 2018 15:02 (six years ago) link
Pretty sure all those NPC-based mini quests go into the skate somewhere.
