[Like the hat?]

I like the sound of hard mode. And I will wear the tingle outfit everywhere

 

[Sword Of Doom]

Dual audio would have made the memories a hell of a lot more bearable. Better late than never, I guess.

If I never hear "mipha's grace is ready" ever again I'll be happy.

 

[Robobandit]

Hard Mode seems kind of a let down of a mode for being DLC.

Agreed. the fact that they are charging for it had me hoping it was a remixed map a.l.a master quest.

 

[Spieler Eins]

Remember when people tried to argue that for sure Nintendo wouldn't ever put an ordinary hard mode into DLC?

This is weird content for a first "DLC Pack" of an Expansion Pass.

 

[Hattori]

Yup, I'm restarting Zelda...

 

[Deleted member 465307]

I'm not really interested in the new map feature, but it would be nice to glance at. Hopefully it can be toggled on and off.

There are a few screens I've seen that aren't on the website. I'm guessing they were added to the press site or something.

The 45 Room Battle Course probably. It's probably going to be amazing. The game needed another Eventide Island like Experience.

Yeah, I figured that was the setting. I'm very curious how it will play. It seems like a cool approach. I'm definitely interested in it for the reward.

 

[Lights and Waves]

That bulge...

The true Master Sword.

 

[Alexander DeLarge]

I really hope that's only a synopsis for Hard Mode and there's a bunch of under the hood changes. I wanted something similar to FNV's survival mode or something.

 

[Gaspard]

Tingle Outfit

GOAT

 

[Seik]

That Tingle outfit!!!! :lol

 

[Neoxon]

Nice Hard Mode sounds awful. But everything else sounds decent. Not sure if its worth buying yet, I'll probably wait for the 2nd DLC which seems to be substantial.

Also why do we need to download a voice pack for Dual Audio? It's all there already isn't it? We can switch languages pretty easy.

You only need to download the Voice Pack for the Wii U version. The Switch version just enables the option to change the spoken language & the subtitles' language individually.

Did Tingle always have a cobra on the back of his tights?

Seems like there is one between his legs too!

 

[OriginalPoe]

The Tingle outfit is...

Nintendo, we know you have urges.

 

[claude.labonte]

wait there's french canadian audio??

 

[MAX PAYMENT]

Where's the release date?

 

[Mengetsu]

I guess me not being able to get a switch has been fate. Duel audio hype!

 

[Drewboy64]

Holy cow, this is some robust DLC considering this is only the first of two parts. The path tracker sounds incredible. And that new armor, holy crap. Also very cool that the trials actually powers up the sword, so there's a permanent reward.

I wonder if Hard mode requires you to create a new save file, or if you can have two saves or something. I don't want to lose my progress

 

[Brandon F]

Been purposefully holding off playing for hard mode. Expected some limitations on food recovery and inventory possibly, maybe a unique spin. Never expected paid DLC for a mere stat bump...yet here we are.

I find this pack largely terrible as a paid proposition.

 

[TheGreatMightyPoo]

Remember when people tried to argue that for sure Nintendo wouldn't ever put an ordinary hard mode into DLC?

No.
Plus, it's not the same hard mode, it's not the same content.

 

[KingBroly]

I knew they'd do the Korok Seed finder somehow :\

I want a Reward for doing it the Hard Way. Like a Man.

 

[GwyndolinCinder]

Fuck me nintendo are you kidding with that hard mode.

 

[sixteen-bit]

I'm gonna go korok seed hunting with that mask

 

[JayEH]

oh shit i'll load up the game again to check out the japanese VO.

 

[Gino]

These are some fantastic additions. Tingle suit got me laughing hard.

 

[Septimus Prime]

A better Master Sword would be nice, since right now even the suped up version is worse than random Lynel shit.

 

[Charles Alan Ratliff]

Very happy about the dual audio. Glad I decided to wait a while before getting a Switch and playing this.

 

[UnemployedVillain]

How are people not more excited by Trial of the Sword? It's like

Spoiler

multiple Eventide Islands!

Yea same here, I was expecting much more from a Hard mode if they were going to charge for it.

 

[Skittzo0413]

Wait did anyone see the picture of the floating platforms with moblins on them from that PR? I'm on mobile so I can't link it, if that's indicative of the types of changes in hard mode that actually sounds pretty cool.

How are people not more excited by Trial of the Sword? It's like

Spoiler

multiple Eventide Islands!

Yeah that alone would make for some nice DLC judging by the way it sounds.

 

[Dark Ninja]

Whoa whats with the dual audio. Can I have English text with other languages now?

 

[Karu]

Putting something like Heroäs Path mode behind DLC is weird. QoL imrovements like that should be free, other than that seems Pack 1 has some solid additions.

 

[randomusername]

Hope the new trial makes the master sword umbreakable

 

[Not]

I still have one dungeon left (enjoying not rushing through this game immensely), but I couldn't resist seeing what's on the way.

Loving that Tingle outfit to death.

 

[Deleted member 465307]

From the press release:

When Link clears all of the trials, the true power of the Master Sword will awaken and always be in its glowing powered-up state.

Sounds like that's the Master Sword change. I like it, but anyone looking for a major overhaul will probably be disappointed.

Spoiler

If only the previous requirements for glowing further doubled the attack power.

 

[NinjaCoachZ]

That hard mode sounds awesome; I might just switch to it and never go back. Those outfits are cool too, and the Travel Medallion sounds like a godsend!

 

[forrest]

Pretty cool stuff. Also, that map feature is pretty crazy. Having put enough hours into the game that a lot of my path will be lost to the ether, I'm still pretty amazed it will be able to see 200 hours into where I've been. This is all based on the fact the feature will be retroactive which I'm hesitant to believe.

 

[wild wild rice]

Looks like I might get in on this.

 

[Pieman0920]

Did Tingle always have a cobra on the back of his tights?

 

[ghibli99]

Sweet! I just sold my Wii U BOTW and plan on doing another playthrough in the not-too-distant future on Switch. Can't wait to experience it with the Japanese VO this time around.

And that Tingle gear. LOL Awesome.

 

[DecoReturns]

Enemies and Treasure chests in the sky?

So new enemies?

 

[petethepanda]

Hero's Path sounds fucking rad! I have two shrines left to find, that should be a fun way to try to track them down.

 

[victreeb3l]

Okay that is freakin awesome. Awesome armor, dual audio, the trials, theyre all great!

Goddamnit Nintendo Ive put in 200+ hours into this already. Stop pulling me back in! I want to do things!!!

 

[K.Jack]

This ain't right.

An outfit that could embarrass Rock Lee.

 

[phanphare]

Remember when people tried to argue that for sure Nintendo wouldn't ever put an ordinary hard mode into DLC?

I'll take an L on that. I thought for sure hard mode would be a bit more than this. I guess stuff in the sky is different?

 

[abstract alien]

That korok mask is hideous. I love it.

 

[Dark Ninja]

Did Tingle always have a cobra on the back of his tights?

Yeah its always covered by his backpack. But you could see it in Wind Waker

 

[Chase17]

More interested by pack 1 than I was expecting. Tingle costume lol

The hero's path thing sounds really neat.

 

[KingBroly]

From the press release:



Sounds like it won't be significantly better than before if you were looking for a major change.

So,

Spoiler

Always 60 Attack and never breaks. Kinda breaks the game.
