#i love all the bosses in totk

[darkdragon768]

Me: *watches a video about the lore of zelda bosses - botw edition*

Guy in the video: "Now that's in botws DLC (...)"

Me: "Just say totk. ... Wait, botw had real DLCs. Fuck I forgot about that."

Totk Angst - "I told you I didn't like this outfit."

Random Toxic Puppet Zelink I drew because I just missed my lady and Master Puppet Zelda so much❤️

And...I'm gonna tell ya a secret: I am a bad person who enjoys drawing Link fu***d up and suffering way too much😩 Also, if you are wondering, Link is wearing the Depth outfit. The front piece was removed and placed on his leg... I needed the outfit "sexified" 🤣🤷‍♀️

I'd draw this outfit way more often if the hood didn't hide Link's facial expressions so much. It's really REALLY is my favorite TotK Armor Set! So...GOTH!! Glory to Puppet Zelda!

I’ve found about half of the Koroks in BOTW at this point (in my master mode playthrough) and that’s all I have left to 100% the game.

So I think imma go beat Ganon (if I can I’m gen so stressed hahah) and start TOTK and leave the remaining little dudes for cozy gaming times 🤙🏻

I have many thoughts (old and new) from this time playing that I might share because!! I really love this game and I think some of y’all do too!!

Also! New chapter and possibly a ficlet/oneshot hopefully next week!

Between losing my dad and the semester kicking my ass I haven’t had much motivation to do anything but rot in my free time, but I’m starting to feel a bit better!

btw. tulin totk is my little baby boy and I've adopted him nobody else can have him

Other totk players: building elaborate machines, doing the story, probably other stuff, quite likely in order even.

still not done with the game right now but why was the wind temple & boss fight the best one in the game lol i went their first and it set the bar so high. the other temples and bosses were fun but so far nothing compared to the climb up to the wind temple & diving thru colgeras weird body. the music was also so fire

btw you should play xenoblade chronicles x: definitive edition when it comes out on switch and here's why:

-absolutely beautiful open world JRPG made by the studio that went on to work on BotW and TotK's maps. you want fantastical natural settings? we got em in spades.

-instead of being a JRPG that starts as a fantasy story and gets more scifi as it goes on it starts as a scifi story and gets more fantasy as it goes on. all xenoblade games are firmly science fantasy but X tips the closest to the science side of the scale

-super cool aliens. aliens that were genetically engineered to eat pollution. high tech aliens that love pizza. aliens that are allergic to human dna. straight up thundercats.

-Mix-and-match combat where you custom build your own class based on which sword and gun choice you have equipped. From a regular ass knife to a lightsaber, from an assault rifle to a laser drone.

-There's a character named "Murderess."

-You get a mech. You get lots of mechs. They transform into vehicles and can fly. Anything you want out of a mech, this mech can do it.

-There is a field boss named "Sheldon the Dentally Challenged"

-If you have a favorite English voice actor, they are in this game, I can almost guarantee it.

-Side quests. Great side quests. Excellent side quests. Open world JRPG with excellent side quests. Need I repeat.

-OST by Hiroyuki Sawano. You might recognize him from the soundtrack of some obscure anime such as Attack on Titan, Kill la Kill, and Gundam.

Shoot the eye!

I just pulled out a spring and jumped in the air to shoot at them until they were dead

I think it's sort of funny

When I learned about Gloom Hands, it was on tumblr, because I hadn't played TotK yet

But when I DID start playing, i remember I was seeking out shrines to complete and ran into my first gloom hand up at that one shrine that's floating just above the ground, where you have to climb a root to get up to it. And up over the hill, i saw this black and purple blob moving. Moving towards me

And my first instinct was to climb, climb high, and hope it couldn't get me up there.

It couldn't. I didn't even have to fight my first gloom hand, it just....evaporated out of frustration of not being able to grab me

and I sat up there for a while, thinking it was a trick and the thing would come back. And I sat and waited until i decided to risk it, dropping down and grabbing the weird new thing, but then hurrying back up to my hiding spot

Because people talked about the hands, not what they dropped, or that they disappear after a minute if they can't shake you like a doll.

And I don't think I ever actually got caught by the hands until I did the Deku Tree quest, where I honestly was so running out of ideas because sitting on a ledge and bombing them from above was getting me nowhere, so I willingly jumped in with them hoping it would make a difference (spoilers: it did not)

okay i typed this in a reply but i need to say this more detailed here too, the way totk dealt with horses (and stables) is bad and worse than botw imo (yes i can rant about that too, these weird choices are in every little spot in totk, its almost impressive)

in a game that lets you build cars and stupid flying maschines, towers that shoot you into the stratosphere AND teleporting points all over the place, the chance is already low that you use a horse- though i would be one of them bc i love horses and hate building and didnt find it fun at all-

(also i almost never used any parts i had with me bc you cant put them back and your dumb vehicles despawn as soon as you dont look at them- also a negative thing about that system that reinforces the feeling of actually using it being more punishing than rewarding with the added bonus of the good ol saving your health potions forever problem)

-and something i DID like was that you can have more horses and the ... one.. new color (the lil spots but only AFTER you do that one quest in the spy post)

the stable points seemed like a neat idea, but like so many things, are utterly cheatable, imo the system should have only given you a point when you visit a new stable, so you actually have to go around and visit them all

(also .. add new stables, like mini ones or sth that dont offer beds- you dont need that anyway- so you have more places in which you can get them ... why did they remove some of them anyway, shouldn there be MORE now that the land is supposedly healing/being repaired? especially the one next to the big canyon, its so empty there it would have the perfect place for sth like a new settlement or a big boss arena but no its more empty than it was before, why?? and then putting yet another repeating annoying quest there in that weirld empty place?? i just dont get it)

letting you farm points by sleeping at a stable or bringing in a horse gives you LESS incentive to actually go around the world bc you can just farm it there

(and if that was done so youd 'discover' the malanya talks to you in your sleep 'secret' ... that is literally told to you, and if its bc you dont want to force players to go around and find every stable to get all those rewards ... why do you have 140 or whatver caves then with the majority of them being the literal same thing over and over ... to make people actually use the sleeping thing there? .. why, who uses that anyway, and farming points by sleeping there .. what the hell does that add? AND THEN the stupid sleep over tickets, probably the most nothign reward ever, dont count?? i dont think i ever used one- it just all doesnt make any sense, everything plays against each other)

the upgrading system for your horse is .. once again, a neat idea horribly executed, you have to go find malanya to upgrade them, and similarly stupidly like the fairies, they only tell you what food you need for what upgrade when you are there .. or when you are sleeping in the special tm bed at a stable, randomly, one food, bc the quantity changes too

which is just so ??????????? let me go and do a quest that rewards you with a lil booklet in which you can look up what an upgrade costs, or let the stables have that, either as a list or in the menu when selecting a horse or something?? (also why the hell is malanya in a different spot anyway, like, it feels like a modder just plopped them over there, their og spot is just empty now - except for yet again a stupid filler quest for .. another big horse and a yaaaaaaaaays crystal shrine quest- ... the spot is even still called spring of the horse god .... its so stupid, just like the fairy shuffling around, like you really couldnt think of a better way to reuse that concept other than to ... move it to a different spot in the same map and map level???? and not change anything in their og spot except idk, put a hole in the map ... for one of them like .. its like they moved them around last minute just to have the semblance of things being 'changed' with no regard what makes a change actually feel like one and what just feels like, pick up thing, click on random spot on map, drop thing- its like that for the fairies and shrines too, its so dumb and .. feels disrepectful to botw and how much thought seemed to have went into these spots that were clearly built about those things)

and like it couldnt get WORSE, they cut off the paths that horses follow automatically with one of those miasma buttholes (sorry its just a hole cut into the map, it doesnt even look like miasma burst through, it just .. cut out) a monster camp (that RESPAWNS, i thought those camps you clear with a quest would stay clear, but that would make sense, so of course it respawns and you can do the frame rate killer quest over and over yippieee) or otherwise like, with a big rock or a broken bridge-

and there is NO WAY to create a new path or fix or move anything in a game ABOUT BUILDING supposedly, like you needed more reasons to never use a horse????? i liked jsut hopping on and letting them follow a path and chill looking at the landscape, you cant do this here, and you cant even excuse it with 'its bc of the theme' as in, stuff is destroyed bc calamity 1.5 or whatever bc nothing in the game makes it feel like theres anything actually at stake, but the real crime is to make it not be fixable. WHY??? link moves entire buildings with ease but cant move one freaking rock that fell into a river?????? you swing around logs like a club but cant fix a bridge so your horse can get over it??????????????????????????????
