Is the expansion pass available for Wii U?

This thread moves way too fast lol, I think people like this game.

Yes.

 

[d00d3n]

None as far as I know. Equipment is the only thing with any limit.

Thanks

 

[Shaanyboi]

The Blood Moon is just a cutscene, as soon as it's done playing all the enemies and resources get respawned.

I wonder if that's how the game actually scales enemies for places you've already been. Would make sense.

 

[victreeb3l]

Finally its friday. Just got home from work. Time for a 10 hour play session! Need me some koroks and shrines.

 

[MosquitoSmasher]

Speak to her from behind the counter.

Go behind the counter. Works this way with every seller in the game

Thanks guys. But what do you mean with that it works with every seller? Or do you mean there are many quests like these?

Gotta find ten damn restless crickets. Not gonna be easy.

The tables have turned, now the hunted have become the hunter. Time to get those guardians.

Just bought all the

Planning on upgrading all gear sets in the game before going for Ganon. Got most of them to lvl 2 and 3 now. So many sets in this

Is that how I'm really suppose to get into Gerudo Valley?

- A word about the difficulty progression and AI:

Spoiler

I've been playing the game unguided and only have a vague sense of what how the enemy progression works, but one thing I have noticed is that the AI definitely ramps up. I now see Moblins rushing to kick my bombs away before I get the chance to detonate them. And early in the game I got accustomed to using natural cover to block arrows, which meant it came as a nasty surprise when I encountered a Lynel that fired its shock arrows in the air and rained them down towards me in a perfect arc, when I thought I could safely get away by dropping onto the cliffside or gliding off. But that may just be a Lynel thing, as so many of the deadliest enemy mechanics are.

Spoiler

Yeah, I definitely noticed this too. Even if there are a lot of palette swaps in this game, at least they do something different from their other counterparts AI wise to keep you on your toes. Plus the scenario design in general does a lot for variety.

 

[SinCityAssassin]

Two questions:
What is the equipment limit for materials?
Can armors break?

Not too sure, but I'm at 5 pages.

Armor doesn't break.

Can't wait for that and the holiday dlc now

 

[jorgejjvr]

I truly feel we won't ever be able to discover everything the game had to offer

Or years from now we will still be finding something new

 

[Basileus777]

Where do voltfruit generally grow?

 

[Vic_Viper]

Yep.

Thanks lol!

Biggest complaint about the Wii U version so far is the lack of tablet controller use. Obviously it was cut due to the Switch version, but man is it sorely missed. So many good uses for it since it's pretty much Link's Sheika Slate.

 

[victreeb3l]

Check cactuses in deserts. Few near gerudo city and the oasis.

First time tearing a Walking Guardian's limbs off with the weapons I tore off the Nano-Bots v4 was a very special moment in the game for me.

It marked the moment I was officially in the business of hunting Guardians to extinction :')

[Boogiepop]

Beat the game, loved the hell out of it, but I do have one thing that kind of frustrated me right at the "end".

Spoiler

There's a memory in Hyrule Castle, and I saved that for last. But then it turns out you need to go back to Impa for one final one. I said "eh, I'm already right next to Ganon, and there doesn't seem to be any warp to get back here easy, so let's just do this thing". Beat the game, which was great, and went back for that last memory, but then that one line of "do you really remember me" in the ending bugged me enough to check... and apparently there is indeed a "true ending" for that, huh?

So yeah, not the end of the world as I still have a lot left to do in the game, which I'll tackle at a more relaxed pace over time, so that can be tagged on. Still annoying, though.

Edit: Btw, bugs seem like... kind of a pain to take pictures of. I only got like 1 or 2 of those during my whole play time despite trying to capture everything new I came across on film for the sake of the compendium thing. Do you just have to stealth up on them, I guess?

 

[Stalwart]

I mean they'll say something different behind the counter than in front of it.

I heard heard about this but I thought it was a glitch. Looks like it was intentional, thats surprising.

Cutting grass may not give you rupees like in past zelda games, but it's not totally useless. At least you can find some fairies.

I have completely and irrevocably fallen in love with this track

The soundtrack in this game, apart from some of the battle music, is just absolutely amazing. How you have such a huge world, massive scale-- and it's all mostly punctuated by gentle piano movements. Like some of it barely sounds like anything but when you combine it with the world, traversal, day and night cycle, the wind, and just everything about the environment and its details is pure art. Pure freaking art.

 

[MindGamingMantis]

How do you check play time?

The soundtrack is pretty weak compared to past games. There isn't a single memorable track in the game that doesn't remix an already existing song, and even those are incredibly rare.

Wrong. Ost is awesome. It'd be obnoxious if there was constant music playing. Pokémon levels of shut the fuck up game.

Only thing I'm not crazy about is the battle theme. It sounds fruity, but it's not bad.

 

[Mr-Joker]

I managed to see my first meteor and collect it, what does it do and how much does it sell for ?

Keep the star fragment, they are rare and are used for upgrading purpose.

Doh, thank you!

So the alternative to a weak/nonexistent soundtrack is to have obnoxious music playing all the time? Pretty sure there could have been a much better balance than what we got. The fact that the regions didn't really get their own themes is really sad to me.

Kinda hard to interpret the seemingly condescending "Lol, dat edit".

The best tracks for me are at Hyrule castle. Just fantastic and nostalgic and epic and so fitting.

The rest of the music is also great, but Hyrule Castle is special.

I agree. The only one i've really liked so far is the Shiekah research lab music.
