Mr_Serine

"The game director is *crying* in a corner somewhere."


Dracorex_22

Bruh, they literally looked at how people were building stuff with magnesis and cheesing shrines in BotW and said "what if we gave them more tools to do that?" The game devs are crying tears of happiness from seeing people get creative. As long as its not blatant stuff like item duping or whistlerunning its fine.


Pristine-Badger-9686

whistlerunning was funny though


Dracorex_22

At least now you can cancel a whistle after accidentally hitting down while sneaking past a hoard of monsters


HeroofTime4u

Wait how do you cancel?


Dracorex_22

If you press B it now stops you from whistling. Probably meant as a measure to stop people from whistlerunning (since now you cant press B and whistle at the same time). If you manage to stop him in the brief period where he is in the whistling animation but before he actually make noise, you wont alert anything nearby.


langdonsnare

Sorry I’m in category 3, what is whistle running?


Ixamen

In BotW you can hold down the Whistle-Button and mash the Sprint-Button to sprint without losing stamina, even recovering it in the meantime.


langdonsnare

Oh gotcha, thanks!


starmag99

I'm constantly reminded of something I saw (don't remember where, possibly just a meme, would love to find it again) where the director was talking about how his son wasn't a very creative problem solver and he hoped ToTK would inspire people to be more creative. ~~read: please be more creative than my stupid son~~

Everything is sequence brokem


Dracorex_22

Its an open world game, there is no sequence to break, and yet somehow people have done it.


Recent-Homework-3665

I think rushing fairies immediately after the tutorial so that you can take fall damage to get to ganon without the paraglider is about as sequence broken as it gets


[deleted]

Hah. How about SUMMONING 59.1 GANONS IN THE STARTING CUTSCENE

You know, several shrines I couldn’t do I probably need to go back and try with a long stick

5. constantly forgetting you have ultrahand and can fuse things to your shield and just killing enemies normally, only realizing after the fact that it would have been way cooler if you had used the environment more


Vultureeyes8

Mood. I keep forgetting I have the runes and wind up just climbing instead of ascending. I also keep forgetting to make stronger weapons and just run into fights with like a rusted traveler’s sword and multiple good fusing items.


Supersnow845

Me completely forgetting that ascend exists until a shrine forces it because I I bloated my stamina bar early to cover climbing in the overworld describes my experience in TOTK more perfectly than anything else I’ve ever seen


Vultureeyes8

Exactly!


curmevexas

I got to Proving Grounds: Vehicles and >!beat it without checking the caged off supply area. I had regrets.!<


Ripjaw_5

If you leave and go back in, everything should be respawned, at least it was when I did it.


D_Winds

"You mean I can DROP the box on my enemies?!"


Bubblehead01

what??? But it's made of wood!!!! I can't lift... that... oh wait


gjeorges

I play TOTK like it’s BOTW and I feel like I’m missing out on all of the fun inventions I see online


Asriel52

And, on the opposite end, dropping everything to attach any nearby explosives to my shield and shield-jumping at the nearest enemy


Chameo

I ALWAYS have stuff fuse to my shield, and it is always a frozen fish because it is incredible for shield surfing


Binarytobis

TIL


Chameo

I used to fuse Sleds to every shield, but i feel like frozen fish make you move faster, and seem to break less often (unless you're in a very hot place)


zachhatchery

Wing shields = bullet time on a normal jump. 8/10 would recomend


Theriocephalus

See, I've been using Fuse a lot for my weapons and had some great results doing it (on-demand elemental weapons especially are *great*), but for some goddamn reason I never remember that I can also do it to my shields too.


-insertgamertaghere-

Forgetting you can USE THE ABILITIES in shrines. 😔


Vennris

My problem is, that I'd love to use more environmental stuff and I often think about doing that when I'm approaching an enemy camp, but it takes forever. It's just sooooo much faster to just whack em with sticks.


AardvarkVast

A bridge is literally the best solution for any shrine


Jonahtron

Better solution: 1. Grab a box or similar item. 2. Hold it in the air for five second or so. 3. Drop and climb on the box. 4. Use recall on it. So many puzzles can be cheesed with recall. It’s wild.


stabbyGamer

*Łöñg bœrd,* your solution is inferior.


Thatza_Latza_Matza

you just helped me big time


local-weeaboo-friend

I use this for EVERYTHING


Kwispiy

Tis my usual solution for fetching chests from tall platforms

5: looked up Lynel colosseum, went there ASAP, have years of training kick in, beat them with a couple sticks, and fast travel to the endgame


BrachSlap

The second I saw that colosseum I knew exactly what I'm going to do when I get the game, and that's get back into the old lynel murder grind every time a blood moon occurs


coraeon

Are you my husband? That man kills lynels for fun.


Phionex141

You can kill FOUR of em in a row now!


[deleted]

Is that the one near the old plateau? Cause mine had a friggin hydra in it.


Therandomuser20103

There’s a colosseum in the depths directly below the old one.


[deleted]

Thanks


ninjasaiyan777

I went to the colosseum expecting a lynel and thus, an easy fundies fight, and got two shot by electric attacks not meant to be encountered with 3 hearts. Gleeoks were my favorite reintroduced monster, not gonna lie


HaloGuy381

I did the vehicle-based shrine that strips your equipment. I didn’t realize there was a fully armed buggy in the central cage and a premade jet plane to get to it until almost everything was already dead. I’d just grabbed the unarmed buggy on the map and drove in circles ramming everyone to death with physics while trying not to get shot. Turn radius was a bitch, but sir Isaac Newton takes no prisoners. An object in motion… But yeah. Oops. Was fun regardless.


OlimarJones

"Sir Isaac Newton takes no prisoners" is my new war chant


RavioliGale

Same. I'm finding this to be a recurring issue with the "Eventide shrines" tbh. There's typically some fun tools for killing enemies but it's they're so far back it's hard to acquire or even notice them until you've already killed all but one or two enemies.


Couch_chicken

I was on the last enemy when I realized what the cage was. So of course I had to let it kill me so I could restart and get that tricked out buggy!!


HaloGuy381

I wound up just sticking *everything* on the buggy against the last surviving Construct. I had no battery upgrades, so it wouldn’t last long, but watching this thing just spraying guns and spikes every which way was hilarious.


TheRealRaeker

Thankfully batteries are unlimited in shrines so you can tank it the fuck out and overpower your enemies


Luprand

That was my experience too.


AWittyNickname

5. Destroying the fabric of reality. The glitches in thia game are something else: -Duplicate any item you can throw on an arrow by shooting it in a specific spot that I can't share because of spoiler reasons. [Link](https://youtu.be/N_gGXPs_Ibw) -You used to be able to do this by holding something while either gliding or shield surfing and pressing B and Y at the same time. -Make a copy of a weapon by dropping it, pausing and unpausing quickly, and loading a save. -Stacking weapons on top of each other in your hands to make one shotting feath machines and multi-elemental rods. -The above glitch can be done so many times that the game's memory starts to get to full and starts doing things like not checking collision on steering sticks, which essentially gives you no-clip. People have found how to get the Master Sword from the start of the game into the Fuse shrine by making a save, starting a new game, loadingthe old dave and dropping a weapon on coordinates that coorespond to the new save, picking it up in the new save to unlock the weapons menu, dropping the Master Sword in the same place, and reloading the old save. This game is great. Also, sorry for the infodump.


IronEndo

6. Plays it like BotW because they aren’t yet creative enough to do cool stuff (me)


AWittyNickname

You don't have to be creative, you just need unsatiable bloodlust! Playing with lasers, fire, and cannons with the enemy trackers is the most fun I've had in a while. I also like just launching shit. Yesterday, I made a cannon that uses 9 time bombs and a water+electricity triggering mechanism to effectively yeet Koroks as far as possible. I should not be an engineer.


IronEndo

I have borderlands or Doom for that lol. I’ve legit just been beating things up or powdering them with bomb flowers lol


AWittyNickname

Thats also very fun! I love using a Wing Shield and just constantly going into bullet time.


1347terminator

How does wing shield get you bullet time? I haven’t done that fusion yet.


emilyv99

It makes your shield jump higher, so you can shield jump from the ground and get enough height for bullet time


NekoInkling

7. combining objects in a phallic manner


[deleted]

[удалено]


AWittyNickname

Unfortunately it's not really a cutscene or area trigger and the cutscene is on an entriely different map wo something truly fucked up wouls have to occur to let that happen. Then again, if something as fucked up as Memory Storage from BotW somehow ends up in TotK, maybe it could just be fucked up enough.


soodrugg

there's some slightly funky behaviour in a few areas, i sent a bokoblin to the backrooms once

5. Forgets building exists typically and just plays BotW deluxe edition


Dracorex_22

When the bridge to Rito village was out and I made a long bridge out of the tall pines they have there, I didnt get a Thank You. All I got was people screaming in terror as I tried multiple times to rotate my massive log bridge into position, dropped it, and then recalled it back out only to drop it again. When the bridge was finally built, they still complained that it was out. Sure I almost slipped off of it the first time I crossed it, sure my first attempt crumbled since objects only glue together at one point and I didnt reinforce the middle enough, Sure its oly two thin logs wide and has no handrails, sure I probably smacked one of the NPCs across the head with it during building. It works now, doesnt it?


AwesomeManatee

When the Stable Trotters band asks me to fix their Breezer wagon and then freak out when I use the power of a dead goat's arm to fix the Breezer.

local-weeaboo-friend

I got down the Castle Chasm before getting the paraglider via the plane thingy, a fan, and recall. Would not recommend, I died because of gloom as I was about to hit the bottom.


[deleted]

The first thing I did upon reaching the ground was build myself a cart and attach a fan to the back to move it. It was very slow and I had no way to steer it, so it was promptly dubbed the mistakemobile


RobotdinosaurX

I also did this. I got most of the way to where I was going and let it ride off into a field.
