it's just kinda mediocre.

the "dungeons" are just smaller divine beasts. it's just a small area that you figure out a puzzle for. almost like a more involved shrine. usually getting to the temple is more of a journey than the actual thing.

weapon durability is back in full force, you will have your weapons break fighting just one enemy, which is where the fusing mechanic comes in. it's fine. it slows everything to a crawl and breaks immersion, but it's fine.

speaking of the fusing mechanics, the most you're going to be doing with it in general is either making a plane or hover cart, and that's it. there's no reason to really make anything other than to see if you can, or if you have to for a quest.

the depths are actually kinda scary, i really don't like this place, but at the same time it's probably the coolest area in the game. i will recommend everyone do at least the first Josha quest to find Robbie, and then go back down into the depths and follow the statues to unlock the blueprint ability.

overall the game is both very clearly just dlc, but with a layer of "we turned this into a full title" on top with some of these changes. if you hated all the shrines and/or koroks in the first one, they're all still here to do in this one. just instead of getting a dark ball from a shrine, you get a light one. if you got your hopes up for traditional dungeons, they ain't here.

7/10, i like flying in a hovercar

ah, see, the reason why i didn't mention performance is because i'm using a mod on the switch (i am playing on an actual switch, not an emulator) that locks the resolution to 720 and lowers the fidelity of shadows and such so that it runs at 40-60fps, and it's been fairly fine unless i cause a bunch of explosions.

Do they at least make it easier to find the morons?

I'm leaving it in because that autocorrect is hilarious.

I meant koroks.

i don't have an answer for that, i don't know

i can tell you how to unlock the great faeries, or how to unlock the blueprint ability (i already did, do Joshas quest to find Robbie, and then go back and follow the statues. )

I lost interest when I heard guardians weren't in the game. Would it really kill Nintendo to throw in some freakish enemies? I mean, come on.. constructs? What is this, Minecraft?

Also, the whole Demon King Ganondorf thing is just so... lame. Once again, Ganondorf is evil just because he is Ganondorf. *Yawn*

So TotK really doubled down on the worst parts of BotW? Exactly what I was expecting. Good and honest review.

Can you still cross dress

Did they shrink Zelda's ass

Are the sidequests still weirdly unrewarding

And do you still need to shoot dragons at random times to upgrade your armor

I agree So, I like this It works with any food you make, and with any you receive, as well So, you can get new recipes just by getting food from a someone. Not only that, but it shows you multiple recipes. Like I made a couple dishes of the same food with different amounts of the same ingredients, and it has a lost that shows all the possibles combinations youve already tried And the amount of hearts each one gives. So, if you want to cook to restore and exact amount, you know the exact amount of ingredients, so you dont overuse and waste stuff Its neat, and I like it

He should also mention how they gender swapped Metroid just to make a "Badass" woman. He was fine as a space marine.

Freaking NintendWOKE.
