the ridiculous things people build totally violate the spirit of the game

Isn't building new stuff part of the spirit of the game though?

okay, example:
barbarian set, great armor, good set bonus, incentive to upgrade

6 normal lynels required for tier 2, 9 blue lynels for tier 3, another 9 fucking white lynels for tier 4. this is absurd. unreasonable. not to mention a serious resource drain, as even the mid-level blue lynel will take a major beating from high tier weapons before it goes down.

now consider that lynels have set spawn locations. they do not wander, and you will not encounter them in your natural organic moment-to-moment gameplay. you have to mark their locations, set custom fast travel marks, and grind them one by one, but of course not until each new blood moon rises to respawn them.

just... give me a fucking break! i guess if you maybe copy the stupid laser robots from youtubers, that could help, but this all just completely disrupts the experience, and the ridiculous things people build totally violate the spirit of the game, but that's a discussion no one's ready for yet, lol
So you are literally saying you just want everything just handed to you? Okay, Karen.

My personal rationale for using the duping glitches is twofold.

  1. I've gone through almost the exact same effort in Breath of the Wild. For the vast majority of these resources, I'm doing almost the exact same thing. I don't call that appreciable challenge or worthwhile experience. It's doing the job again when it's already been done. If TotK were appreciably different in its methods to get these resources, then I might not mind as much.
  2. Regardless of any glitch, I still must at least get one of every resource through the intended method. I consider that reasonable. When that's done once, any more requirement to do it again amounts to busywork. Filling an arbitrary demand for a fictional market. I can accept that for a single resource (ie. Rupees), or even multiple common resources, but when the list of distinct rare resources number in the DOZENS, we've gone a bit beyond the pale.
I don't hate Nintendo for removing the glitches, but by the same token, I won't give up this means of acquiring resources if I don't have to. The glitch existed in the game, ergo it is a part of the game experience.

I will make the resource gathering easy for myself, while being able to focus on the things that I enjoy in this game. Exploring, challenging monsters, and finding secrets.

And I won't apologize for it, nor will I feel shame.

Congratulations. You have made meaningless accomplishments by cheating.
Why do people care in the first place what defines as meaningful in a single player game.....

If someone wants to cheat in a single player game, it doesnt actually do anything to other players.

Everyone simply doesn't define fun the same way.

Maybe you should take your own advice. Some people do like timesinks (see speedrunners that literally sink hundreds of hours into a game to perfect ways of saving seconds on a run). I know it's a hard concept for you to see things from other people's perspective, but at least make a real effort.

i think there's a lot to be said about the intended experience when it comes to stuff like this but i also get what it's like to have a lot of power taken away:

i'm probably assigning a bit of my own mentality there, or speaking from having made these rants more often to a different audience (souls players lol). sorry sorry.

the point i'm trying to make is that your time is limited when it comes to being able to enjoy a game, so devs kinda need to treat it like it's made of gold. especially if they want the player to engage with the systems and especially the story.

Honestly I feel that the battery upgrades are fair, by and large, simply because Zonaite is an extremely common resource in the Depths.

Of course, everyone has a different threshold for these things.

The game is designed to have a totally fullfiling experience, including the open world and exploration mechanics, by just doing the main quests. If you decide to obsess and spend 100 hours doing something unrelated, you have made that choice, you have decided to spend your time doing that.

Indeed, so play it however you like. If you decide to spend 100 hours mining ore, go for it. If not, you don't have to! Doesn't detract from the game at all.

Yeah, pretty much every RPG is a piece of shit given the prolific use of end game side quests that tend to be extremely tedious and hard in order to abnormally boost your stats in some way.

Shit's existed forever. People tend to only complain when it is a required, or even highly desired, aspect of the game. Like the triforce quest in WW.

Because everyone else has the self control to say "ehh, i dont need to spend hundreds of hours to gain the ability to oneshot every enemy in the game" if they so choose. You can choose to spend time RNGing your way to a golden chocobo. But you can just not.

I think if you're still running the game you can disable it. Maybe just unplug your route before you turn on your switch to disable the auto update? lol

These are all optional though, right?
A lot of the harder enemies will wipe out 8+ hearts in a single swing, if you don't have your armor up to par

Without duping I wouldn't even consider upgrading the elemental resist sets worth it, they take so many materials to upgrade. I'd just upgrade one armor that has attack up as a set bonus and use an elixir for heat/cold
