      Nobody is copying Nintendo lmao, these games are very basic.
      Edit: Should clarify, Nintendo games aren’t as innovative and revolutionary as they used to be. This game is going to look and play almost exactly as the first did, it’s a barebones sequel that should’ve been left as a DLC. Nintendo fans get excited over the bare minimum and it’s hilarious.

      That is actually the strange thing, there has to be more abilities because apart from recall, non of this really sounds directly useful in combat.
      Though I do assume ultrahand will work just like magnesis but on any item so we can chop down a tree and dump it on enemies instead of only using metal grates or bolls.
      I assume there will be some sort of bomb ability other than the weapon show.

      Also, this isn't even inherently true. 100% runs often have to make use of every item/ability.

    Coming back to this after the final trailer yesterday. I really like fuse and ultrahand as a mechanic. I feel like it's their answer to more tedious and grindy crafting systems in other games. Essentially crafting and making weapons and structures is more on the fly and hands on rather than grinding for materials and sitting in a menu for 30 minutes making what you need. Overall it's really creative and I'm so hyped to try everything I can I'm this game.

      @@functionatthejunction yea, but the fact that gmod was an entire game that was centered around building- makes me, and seemingly many other people excited that we can have the best of both worlds combined, and not sacifice graphics, lore, or just general gameplay. I personally always wanted a combo of Minecraft and zelda botw for Minecraft's creativness and Botws open-world-ness, + all their famous mechanics. For me I always thought Botw was really leading you to one road and one road only, the main story; upgrading gear, completing the occasional side quest, but mostly just driving you to and from the divine beasts before you beat ganon. I stopped playing after I beat the game, as I couldn't really find the motivation to complete all side quests, start speedrunning, buy dlcs(much less actually complete them), start modding, ect. i was only in it for the fight. I might be a lost player but what I took away from the gmod feature was a creative outlet to fill the gap of things I can trust to keep me busy after or during the game.
      TL;DR: Botw was temporary to me because I had not much to do after all the action, yet I keep playing a "childish" game like minecraft because the good, dopamine seeking discoveries you can find in that game are endless. Interpret that how you will.

      @@SuperJeyms Actually Link would have a higher terminal velocity than a tank. . Terminal velocity is the maximum velocity an object can reach while falling through a fluid/gas, such as air. The larger surface area and different shape of a tank would cause it to reach a lower terminal velocity than a human, especially if the human dives like Link here
      Both a tank and a human will fall at the same rate in a vacuum. This is due to the fact that the acceleration due to gravity is constant for all objects regardless of their mass, shape or size. This acceleration is approximately 9.81 meters per second squared (m/s²) near the Earth's surface.
      due the surface tension of the water, link would pretty much get the same effect as landing on solid ground

      True, but loading times have never been a major issue in the Zelda series. Almost every game in the series just flashes you straight to the next area, zero loading screens.
      I am wondering what the limit of a “ceiling” is for the ascend ability though… “As long as there’s a ceiling, you can ascend to its top.” He showed us using the recall ability that you can use the environment to reach them, but does it go beyond that? Can Link just stand under any sky island and float all the way up to it if the bottom of the island counts as a “ceiling”, or does it have to be an enclosed room with an actual ceiling to it?

    They should make a another game with the details that years of the kingdom and breath of the wild do I love those two games so much I wouldn’t even have been exploring new things because these games made me explore new things thank you a lot Eiji but you need to make more of these because they are incredible

    The fuse function is a GENIUS improvement from the previous game. Many times, a lot of items collected from enemies and general exploration accumulated in my inventory. This is a solution and another way to make you get creative and ration out your items while exploring the new Hyrule.
    They’ve built upon the shoulder of BoTW and done it in ways I genuinely didn’t even think of. This is amazing

      Yup. Monster parts were just accumulating in my inventory in BotW as I never made elixirs, this is an amazing way of give them another useful purpose, and this is just the tip of the iceberg. If BotW, even today, is a gallery of crazy things the fans do, I can't even imagine the limits of TotK.

      I did a run without any stamina or heart increases just so that the meals and items stayed relevant to gameplay. This makes me think they solved the issue.
