ahh im wrong. that is the white-maned one according to my compendium
Man you have no idea. In retrospect to what ive seen thus far, that beginning part really is like 1% of it
Theres a weather forecast on the bottom right of the screen.
Fought and killed a few in the forested area very early in the game, just west of the first stable you visit(the one en route to kakariko if following quest markers). I even mounted one, but didn't have enough stamina to calm it down to ride.

Try hitting a mounted enemy's horse with an ice arrow/rod. It's so expected it's unexpected.
Why kill it when you can ride it?
Thanks for the tip! I will take a look when I play later.
What am I doing wrong in following the shrine detector? It beeps, I follow. Then the beeping slows/disappears? So I turn around and follow. It beeps, then stops again? Is it like below me? Are some of them hidden inside mountains or trees or something?
It's not for any specific shrine, I think I just don't know how to read the thing very well.

it's worthless just depend on your eyes
It's either above or below you. They can be hidden in caves, behind waterfalls, past bombable walls, and so on.
The beep is basically based off your direction of movement, not your radius. So if it's beeping fast when you're moving straight it might totally stop if you veer slightly left, it actually cuts out more when you're even closer. But it could be above/below, yeah.
I turned the shrine ones off asap though but I've used it a bit to track other stuff, I think it messes me up more than it helps with anything that moves due to that.

I realized today that I've been playing for a week now, at LEAST 4-6 hours a day, and I have yet to actually complete a dungeon. I started one, got my ass handed to me by a boss, went to go level up and then just got consumed doing other stuff.
This game is so rad.
It's fun.

damn i havnt seen any bears yet either. I did see a fucking
when I was wandering in the top left region of the map.. im assuming its an endgame area since I was getting fucking rekt and had to run like hell.
I've been really enjoying running into uncharted areas of the map and looking for shrines just so I have a waypoint there. It can get intense/exciting if you don't have the tower unlocked and the enemies are murderous. I end up using my MGSV stealth action tactics to get around.
I dont want this game to end. I hope they add new DLC areas at some point

When you get used to it, it is very helpful. It isn't as user friendly as out could be, since it will be full then I'd the shrine is under our above you it drops to just two lines being lit, but it works.
There's story. Quite a bit. It's gonna be hard to describe it without spoilers. Let's just say that the order you proceed doesn't matter. The two separate main story arcs are completely optional and not forced.
Exactly. I immediately turned it off and went full pro mode

Are the decayed guardians how you get cores? Or is it just random?
You get cores from the moving guardians, though not always. Decayed guardians just offer the usual spare parts.

Same for me. I was able to get to the dungeon boss in the

Cleared my 3rd dungeon
Thought it was the easiest one so far since
Also had little to no trouble with the boss but that's mostly because I already knew the cheese strat for phase 1

I've noticed that some of the crawling guardians are a lot more...eroded, particularly within labyrinths. Does that effect drops? I've gotten cores from them a lot
I've completely abandoned any attempt to "play" this game at all. Usually when I play a Zelda, the trick is gaming it. I aim to get to [x] dungeons within a day or so. I set certain progression goals for the story to balance it out with exploration of the overworld, etc. Here I'm just like... fuck it. After a week I realized it doesn't matter. I can pick up the game and literally play -any- way I like and it's satisfying. I just explore an inch at a time, going from shrine to shrine, cliff to cliff, cliff to ruin, ruin to tower, etc. There's always something to find, There's always a puzzle or a mystery or a secret around the corner. I'm just going to get lost in Hyrule and play this game for however long it takes. When I eventually get to the next region with a dungeon, I'll worry about it then. Wow.

This game is surprisingly great in small bursts. Usually Zelda games required you to put some time aside but now I can get a lot of enjoyment from just 5 mins of running around.

I actually managed to just kill everything
after more than a few loads lmao.
Good way to practice parrying.
I don't think there's ever been a 3D Zelda with so many successful "oh shit shit shit shit" moments.

Currently polling second in Australia's federal election (first in the Gold Coast), this feral may one day be your Bogan King.
This is exactly how I'm playing. I know the content is finite and inevitably I will hit a wall, but for now freedom of agency in pacing and control over my own adventuring has lead me to simply booting up the game and playing unrestricted and without any neatly defined goal. I'm just engaging with the game world and so far haven't had a single moment of boredom or frustration, continually uncovering new content, zones, and shrines.
Whether I put in 10 minutes or 3 hours in a play session, I've found that the satisfaction from the game is exactly what you invest into it. You can have a small adventure or a big adventure. It's crazy!

If you snitch out Kilton can you still buy his stuff?
Man I shouldn't have told on my boy

Last time I checked it was the tier 1 variant in there, maybe it changed since then though.
You can still buy from him. IIRC, If you tell the guy about Kilton, he'll tell you where Kilton is setting up shop for the night.
I'm still trying to figure out how to expand his shop though, not sure what triggers new items.

who attacked me right away... but it happened to be during a thunderstorm. I'd already put away my metal gear, but he was using that sickle. When I saw the electricity warning on my my gamer instincts told me "he's using this to his advantage." I didn't realize the metal-attracts-lightning rule applies to enemies too -- until a lightning bold knocked me on my ass and obliterated him and the tree he was next to.

You can use this to your advantage by throwing metal weapons at enemies just as lightning is about to strike too.
