Zelda Breath of the Wild... pretty awesome.
pbj:
This game is starting to piss me off. Took me about 90 minutes to get around the damn mountain and find the water bugs to learn about their divine beast. The obtuseness of the directions and the slow travel times are grinding this thing down. Oh, and it constantly ---smurfing--- rains so you're completely stuck if you're in an area that requires climbing, and hey here's a lightning storm, and we've just autosaved in the middle of it so you get to spend 20 minutes running for your life over and over. At one desperate point, I was climbing up behind a water fall, using mushroom skewers to keep my stamina alive, and it STARTED ---smurfing--- RAINING BEHIND A WATERFALL.
And the use of 2D tools to design the map is clearly manifested in an environment with very few bridges and no caves. It's starting to feel like playing a Doom map.
:banghead:

Once you beat the Rito divine beast things get a lot less frustrating. You'll get a power that essentially lets you create your own updrafts, so when it rains you just use it to fly up the mountain. Also powering up your stamina wheel helps.
I'm currently powering up my ancient armor, which requires me to grind hyrule castle to get machine parts. I tried to face Ganon once and got ---my bottom--- handed to me, so I'm getting ready. The castle, btw, is more like a traditional dungeon. It seems like a waste though considering you can just run like a lunatic, jumping waterfalls and scaling cliffs to reach the top without ever venturing inside.... that's what I did the first time. Upon exploring there are tons of power ups and secrets inside.... even shrines?
Howard_Casto:
So I beat the game. Ganon isn't so hard if you have enough hearts.... you don't even have to be very good... just have a lot of food in stock. I think I only used one meal. The ending is pretty good but it's one of those games where after you beat it your save is updated to just before you fight the boss, so no post quest missions. There are still side quests I want to do, but apparently there isn't any point in beating the game again as there are only two endings and I got the best one for retrieving all the memories and beating all the beasts.
Tips for the final battle:
You might want to get the ancient armor set and power it up to level two.... this isn't so much for Ganon, rather all the tanks you'll face on the way. Ignore what I posted earlier and go get the master sword. It's HP doubles to 60 when fighting Ganon or tanks. Make sure all of your beast powers are full. (Duh). Get as many shield slots as you can. You'll understand why when you fight him. When fighting, run around the edge of the arena.... there are rather powerful knight weaponry lying on the ground. Oh and before you lay in the final blow you might want to switch armor as half of the ending cut scenes use your actual outfit, so link might end up looking ridiculous depending upon the armor.
I don't want to spoil anything, so that's as much as I'll say.

So is this game not like skyrim meets legend of zelda? Because that is what i was hoping for for over a year.

Eh....
Do you not have a WiiU? Not that I'd encourage piracy on a board devoted to piracy but it's like a 12gb download...
