    That's what Nintendo thinks of Achievements.

    Did anyone else think that the story wasn't very long? At least compared to past zelda games. Sure, the game takes a while because it's huge, but the story just feels like it wasn't as big as past games.
    The story was basically Beat 4 divine beasts, obtain at least 13 hearts for the master sword, and then beat Ganon.
    Maybe they'll show a teaser for the original story via DLC.

    I can't believe how much time people have. I'm barely 8 hours in I think. I don't even think I had that much time when I was in prime-time video game age 12-15. How do guys pull it off?

    yep. I mean I booked release day off work and then made sure my entire weekend was free so that's where most of my time came from. Did almost nothing but play Zelda and eat food.

    Also I do like the story being told through the memories and I really like Zelda in this game, but there just isn't enough there for me. I wish we got more Zelda tbh.

    Agreed. I think the Link / Zelda dynamic is really interesting in this game compared to the more empty relationships the two have shared in the past games.

    Yeah, I wish we could have explored that more as a player and delved deeper into Zelda as a character and what she was going through. I'm really hoping we'll get some more Zelda in whatever the DLC is, maybe something from the past. I think that could be cool.

    It's nice that I can take the Switch anywhere to play, but my 3 year old daughter requires too much attention for me to really get some solid gametime in.

    Fingers crossed there is more Zelda in the DLC

    This times a million. My 2 year old doesn't even know I have the switch because I'd never be able to pull it out again if he did. I have to choose between playing and sleep and lately sleep has been more important

    I think I'm more engaged with the story in this game than I have been in almost any other zelda game. I love finding the memories and piecing the story together from that, it makes for a much more personal experience for me and really connects me to the world I'm exploring in a unique way. Also think the way characters interact with Link in this game is unusual for a zelda game, the writing is really good.

    Only story I would say I like more than this one at this point is Majora's Mask.

    Up to 90 shrines. No idea where any of these other ones could be.

    As arduous as the Tarrey Town side quest was, the payoff was fucking perfect

    Not complaining because a lot of these shrines are fun and well thought out... and there are a ton of them. But I sure miss a good old fashioned dungeon. You know... collect keys, solve puzzles, get that one special item, find the boss key, fight the boss. I thought that feeling of being in the dungeon forever and being totally disconnected from the open world was a good one. Like, once you conquer a difficult dungeon, the open world feels like a huge breath of fresh air.

    Curious. What do you guys think are some of the most beautiful areas in the game are? I love the Northeast corner with all the different colored trees and the mountains... and that area around Tarrey Town. Just visibly stunning.

    Rainforest area. And the first time I saw the dragon on the volcano.

    My favorite is the open area, the stables between kakariko and hateno, up to the entrance to Death Mountain/Zora's Domain. The one with the ruined entrance with lots of dead guardians.

    It's not necessarily the most visually exciting place in Hyrule but I just really like hanging out there with the tall grasses and horses and shit lol

    It's hard for me to say what area is the most visually stunning. I play 95% of the time on the WiiU Gamepad, so it mostly looks washed out and not very impressive. Lol

    Anyone figure out the loophole to get the Master Sword?

    There's this black angel in Hateno Village that basically allows you to swap some Stamina bars in exchange for Heart containers. I only needed 2 more hearts to be able to pull the sword out. Got it. Then went back and got my stamina bars back.
