Johann Sebastian Staedtler 🇨🇦There is an incredible richness in every NPC interaction. Not only do people have unique appearances and personalities, but they bring bits of the rest of the world with them. Hyrule is dauntingly huge, but we're always reminded that a lot of stuff is happening in it, just waiting for us to come and see.This is hardly unique to TotK, but it's a testament to how good this game is that I badly want to talk to every person I encounter to learn about more stuff.<a href="https://mastodon.art/tags/TotK" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TotK</a>

Johann Sebastian Staedtler 🇨🇦I'm still plowing my way through the game, it's just that I left the realm of tight, limited level design, and landed in the world of indecision and doing ALL THE THINGS.To be honest, as soon as I landed, I was hit by disappointment of how open and empty Hyrule looked (compared to the sky island). And I had to run huge distances by foot. :BlobCat_Exhausted:But it quickly faded when I finally encountered other people.<a href="https://mastodon.art/tags/TotK" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TotK</a>

Johann Sebastian Staedtler 🇨🇦I still can't tell why Rauru and all the Constructs spoke as though Zelda was surely located within the Temple of Time, since a) none of them could possibly enter to check, and b) she does not seem to physically be there at all.One possibility is that they heard her voice tell them she was there (just like Link heard her shortly after passing her the sword).Another is that she's in that very Temple in a different time, and the Zonai have a weird concept of time.<a href="https://mastodon.art/tags/TotK" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TotK</a>

Johann Sebastian Staedtler 🇨🇦I reached the end of the Temple, and this was confusing but still very cool. When the Master Sword moved from Link to Zelda, the audio sounded very much like the Recall power. That tracks with how the magic bean that Zelda possessed gave Rauru's arm the power to reverse time.So Zelda may be in a different time now than Link, but it sure looks like a different location as well (although the table looks very similar).(Also noting the tear marks on her face)<a href="https://mastodon.art/tags/TotK" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TotK</a>

Johann Sebastian Staedtler 🇨🇦If you Ascend above the awakening room, you get to the massive stump of a tree, which would explain the roots you had to navigate to get out of the room. I notice, because the island is above the clouds, that it's always sunny and dry up here. So where the heck does all the water come from?? I suppose there's some Zonai power that's sucking moisture from air further below or something (and possibly feeding into a snow machine on one side of the main island) <a href="https://mastodon.art/tags/TotK" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TotK</a>

Johann Sebastian Staedtler 🇨🇦So I got to the door that wanted to kill me, but before heading off to the 4th shrine, I poked around the Temple of Time (yay, Ascend!). There was a very interesting arena-like space at the very top. If this was Xenoblade there would totally be a boss fight waiting in there.Speaking of: I know Monolith Soft was involved in world design for BotW. It sure looks like they were involved in this game, too. What you can see from any given point is very intentional.<a href="https://mastodon.art/tags/TotK" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TotK</a>

Johann Sebastian Staedtler 🇨🇦I guess I should note that the bean that Zelda had grabbed was originally in Rauru's arm to begin with. So now it (or at least that power) is back, and perhaps time manipulation was something Rauru had possessed back when he subdued that nasty corpse dude under the castle. I'm jumping a bit ahead to events at the end of this temple, but: could any time shenanigans have taken place while Zelda had the bean? 🤔🤔🤔<a href="https://mastodon.art/tags/TotK" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TotK</a>

Johann Sebastian Staedtler 🇨🇦So Zelda's in here, right? First though, I came upon one of the Zonai magic beans (undoubtedly related to the one Zelda grabbed during the whole upending of Hyrule Castle). And... oh, okay, so Zelda isn't entirely, corporeally *here* as expected. What the heck did Rauru think would happen? It better not be like "whoops, I didn't think she'd actually show up, this was supposed to be purely metaphorical"<a href="https://mastodon.art/tags/TotK" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TotK</a>

Johann Sebastian Staedtler 🇨🇦Having finally found the narrow, circuitous route back around the freezing river I once rafted across, I made a beeline for the Temple (which was actually quite direct, just to rub salt in my cold, aching wounds). Rauru then helpfully explained the (now-active) shrines that I should visit. I chose to leave the freezing peak shrine for *last*.I collected the three godly powers, and I like that they're completely different from BotW's (and Ascend is crazy).<a href="https://mastodon.art/tags/TotK" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TotK</a>

Johann Sebastian Staedtler 🇨🇦I kept exploring the cold region, but I was running out of hot peppers to keep from freezing. And whenever I found more, I was running frantically to find the nearest (lit) cooking pot.I eventually reached the highest peak where I found this weird boulder. It appeared completely inert, but then I think I saw another one in the distance, and "oh right, I bet there are three of these things." That was when I chose to get out of this freezing deathtrap region.<a href="https://mastodon.art/tags/TotK" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TotK</a>

Johann Sebastian Staedtler 🇨🇦I passed by a number of things that I couldn't handle or interact with yet, but that seemed pretty normal (and hooray for pinning locations on the map for returning to later).And I managed to descend to the bottom of that cave (collecting a bunch of plants and seeds that I didn't know what to do with yet), until I met a Construct at the bottom with a *gotdang flamethrower*. I had the impression that weak, shirtless Link might not be properly equipped for here yet.<a href="https://mastodon.art/tags/TotK" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TotK</a>

Johann Sebastian Staedtler 🇨🇦The curious part is that there was a barrier in place—a wide, frigid river I could not swim across—and a Construct was here talking about broken rafts. ...But hey, there were some *working* rafts available to me.Oh, but I would need energy to operate them. ...Welp, the construct just *handed me some energy*.Then I crossed the river... which was a *one-way-trip*.No no no, there's *no way* this could be the wrong direction to take.<a href="https://mastodon.art/tags/TotK" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TotK</a>

Johann Sebastian Staedtler 🇨🇦Here is a curious level design decision on the part of the developers:As I was wandering about the island toward the Temple of Time, I came upon a slope up to a frigid area. Right at the bottom of the slope was a hot pepper plant, and I knew from BotW that I could cook them to obtain cold resistance.I legitimately thought that was a path I was meant to take to reach the Temple. I thought I was still "on rails" at this point of the game.*I thought wrong.*<a href="https://mastodon.art/tags/TotK" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TotK</a>

Johann Sebastian Staedtler 🇨🇦NOOOOOOOO, there's going to be another 7000 Korok seeds to find(And "Ya-ha-ha!" will be stuck in my head for another 5 years)(Anyone else still hear that cartographer fish from Wind Waker going "Ehhhhhh?")<a href="https://mastodon.art/tags/TotK" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TotK</a>

Johann Sebastian Staedtler 🇨🇦Whoa, we got Zelda's phoneNote how we can browse the exact photos we watched her take while beneath Hyrule Castle<a href="https://mastodon.art/tags/TotK" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TotK</a>
