    I keep wasting hours at a time going to remote areas where I don’t have any shrines looking for some and coming up completely empty

    Played for a few more hours last night and still only managed to complete one more shrine and one more tower during that span. Spent a lot of time scanning with the pad to pin various shrines, towers, and other notable locations. So my map, while not filled out, has a lot of symbols scattered all over of places to go once I get out of my current phase of monster camp raiding, treasure hunting, and cave/well diving. I’m also a big fan of the uptick in Yiga Clan encounters that I’ve been experiencing.

    But over 50 hours in and still barely scratching the surface.

    No Fun. Not Ever.

    Finally beat my first Lynel yesterday. Confused that dumbass behind a rock. Sad that the drops were lower fuse levels than other stuff I already had.

    same tbh. shrine hunting is probably the most enjoyable part of this game for me. I just love doing the puzzles and not knowing what they're gonna be when I walk in. However I've only done 68 and I'm truly wondering how they're managing to hide nearly 100 more somewhere lol

    My only complaint about the shrines in this game is they are just way easier than in botw. Botw could only be solved one way (unless you just windbomb to the end lol). Totk has plenty of "hacks" to get to the end with minimal effort haha

    I've done all but about 5-10 of the shrines now and I agree that all of them are easier than BOTW's outside of a very small handful. Though I am very glad that they got rid of the annoying motion control-dependent ones. There are also far more where the challenge isn't even the shrine itself but some puzzle/quest you have to do to get to them. Feels like half the shrines are in caves

    Probably the most difficult one for me was one that's actually very simple but it was so early in the game that I didn't really understand the full capabilities of the new abilities, so it took me like 30 minutes of trying to be very clever with them when the actual answer was just a matter of fully utilizing all of the material in the room

    The Trial of the Sword-esque shrines where you lose all your equipment are a much more enjoyable replacement for BOTW's Tests of Strength though

    Jesus that’s wild, I had 165 hours in BOTW and still had like 10-20 shrines that I never did. Have you been looking anything up as you go are you just a beast?

    Well I've got like 100 hours in already lol, spent basically all of my free time last week playing.

    But also finding all the shrines is very easy once you find all of the lightroots in the depths, since they are all directly below each ground-level shrine. There are quite a few shrines that are hidden in caves, but once you know the general location it's just a matter of finding the cave entrance which is easy. They sky island shrines don't correspond to anything like that, but since there's only so much sky island space, it's easy enough to figure out where the shrines are

    So far I enjoy the temples more than the BOTW beast temples. The bosses are way more interesting than the ganonblight stuff. Still, I prefer an old school dungeon. Let me find keys, a map, a compass, a new item, etc… The temples aren’t bad, but I just prefer them to feel a little more secluded from the open world.

    Tried going after a Flux Construct last night. I finally thought i figured out how to beat it with Ultra hand then it did the thing where it flew up in the air and started floating and I had 0 clue what to do.

    Which one? There's one in the path to the Wind Temple, but I just kept using Ultrahand to pull out the weak block. I don't remember a phase where I couldn't do that.

    When it throws the blocks at you, climb on them when they stop and then use Recall

    Just found a Labyrinth and found the shrine within like a minute lol. I’m assuming the one in the sky is more difficult but my battery doesn’t last long enough to drive there on this hovercraft yet.
