Ok, it's seems i'm the only one liking this game on the forums, because any thread made on zelda was only to rant about it. but i guess a few here might have played the game.
Alright, been a while since i was that invested in a game. ok, i really love this game now. while the first 5 to 10 hours was a bit tedious, because let's face it, the game doesnt tell you anything on what you can do or not. and the more you play, the more you realise the potential of what you can do with this game, and how the empty space is not all empty.
so the discution is, what have you tried to do ? what kind of discovery and experimentation have you done in Zelda ? or what funny thing have you seen ? what hint and tips you have ?
i tamed and mounted a bear
i realised that blue chuchu gelly can be transformed by either fire, ice and electricity to make red, blue and yellow gelly. put gelly in fire, you got red, put gelly in ice water, and you got white. but my favorite, put a dozen blue gelly on the floor in a thundstorm, and equip yourself with a metal shield or weapon. when the item start to get electric arc around it, meaning that a lightning will soon strike it, drop it just beside the gelly on the floor and run. the lightning will continue to lock on it, and will strike the ground where you dropped it, sending all the gelly flying around in the air, but, now yellow.
using the same method, you can drop a metal shield around sleeping enemies to get them burn by God.
speaking of chuchu gelly, i'm trying to do some experimentation to create some kind of bomb. i drop a yellow chuchu on the ground for exemple, attach one or two balloons to it then use a korok leaf to send it away near unsuspected enemies. when the balloon pop, the gelly drop in the ennemy camp (hopefully) and then hit it with an arrow.
farming arrows. when there a bokoblin on a tower shooting arrows at you, run around and let him shoot you, then pickup the arrows on the ground.
with the balloon, i've tried to make a floating raft, but you need at least four balloons, and you have to place them at each corner or the raft will not be stable. but i havent got much success about it.
bomb fishing. why catching live fish ? throw a bomb in the water, the detonation will kill the fishes and you can just pickup the dead one floating on the surface.
make a catapult. with the magnet tool, i put a metal plank on top of a cutted tree, then while standing on the tip of the polank, i raised a metal boulder in the air, and dropped it on the other side of the plank. it fling me very high into the air...
i shoot an apple with an arrow. the apple fall on the ground in the distance (propelled with the arrow) and a bokoblin start running after to eat it...
One thing i really like in this game is the monster behaviour. i've seen bokoblin hunting deers. one time i was sneaking near a Moblin, and for some reason it seems to start a fight with an bokoblin. the bokoblin tried to hit him, and the moblin took the poor bokoblin, and toss him at me. i still dont know if it was intentional, or if he just throw it randomly and happen to hit me. bokoblin throwing explosive barrel at me (and killing themselves by with it). Bokoblin seems to have a special relation with fire. sometimes they put their weapon of fire and danse with them in the air.
you can actually send back a guardian laser beam with your shield. you can also cut their legs, or ram them with your horse.
i'm still not sure what the bat wings are use for. anyone knows ?
cooking just before the red moon give a bonus to your meal
So, anyone else have experiences to share ?
