@@112amy1 like, there’s just so much going on in it. All the caves and peaks. Coldsnap hollow. That one secret hot spring. It honestly just feels like it’s own world sometimes.
One trip to the Rito stable gets you almost all the wood you need for that quest. It‘s accidentally speaking to Bolson after the wedding and having him camp out eternally in front of your house, that’s the real villain of that quest.
I think my favorite region has to be Faron. It feels like it's own world tucked away in the corner of the map with how different it is from the rest of the map and the fact that nothing in the main storyline really pushes you to go there makes it feel more discreet. And Lurelin village is so beautiful and has a nice vibe to it that really reminds me why I love this game. I do also really like Akkala, it's very beautiful and has the greatest video game side quest ever in it being Tarrey Town.
I remember being like 50 or 60 hours in so you could imagine my surprise discovering that Lurein village existed. I’d been to that shrine on the huge cliff near it so it really caught me off guard when I stumbled into it having been really close to discovering it earlier.
Great Plateau is the definition of a perfect tutorial, but my favorite region is Hebra, so much fun to shield surf, many great shrines to try and discover, and I just love exploring the mountains!
that's almost exactly what I said about Hebra, but I mentioned the lynels too :P It also has a labyrinth and is free from guardians which are just an annoyance
Ight story time: The first time I played Botw I skipped dialogue and didn't really stick to the dirt paths, I eventually made it to Rito village (my first Divine Beast) from an angle so that I didn't see the bridge or the stable near it, so I thought "wow I need to glide and climb my way to Rito village huh?". So I did. After a LOT of tries I miraculously climbed my way to Rito village with 1 stamina wheel and 1/5th of the second one. I felt to good accomplishing that.......then I realized there was a bridge there.... I also didn't know you could cook with all of the cooking pots, I thought you needed to find a specific one in a village.
I also forget there is a shirt to the cold temperatures in the Old Man house and I collected tons of mushrooms to enter to the next shrine, the freedom that Breath of the Wild gives is amazing and I find it when I get 450 Korok Seeds all the shrines collected, and I return to Great Plateau to take pictures with Red Bokoblins
I also didn't realize Rito Village had a bridge. But that's still not as bad as how I hopped mountain tops until I stumbled on Kakariko, so when my sister asked how to get somewhere while sitting on the road I had no idea where she was.
I've done that a few times, climbed up the side of a mountain only to realise there's a path that runs down the other side. Never done it with something as notable as a village though.
#15 - Gerudo Yeah there’s just nothing too memorable about it. One thing that’s cool about it though is that it has the tallest Sheikah Tower of the fifteen, and it sticks out from a bottomless pit. #14 - Great Plateau I definitely hear you on your reasons for putting it on the top. Personally for me, I think it’s a wonderful tutorial area, but still compared to the other 13 areas, just nothing too special about it, other than the fact that its where it all began. #13 - Lake Yeah, there wasn’t a whole lot to do, but I honestly really loved Lake Hylia and Bridge of Hylia. Watching the dragon fly out of the lake for the first time was amazing. Also it has the thicc horse. #12 - Ridgeland The Sheikah Tower is a freaking pain to climb, but the area is still nice. Big mushrooms, swamps, and the big blossom tree on Satori Mountain. It also has Thundra Plateau, which was sick. #11 - Woodland Thyplo Ruins, Korok Forest, and the Forgotten Temple are awesome, even if a lot of areas are empty in this area. Although it does have the Tempered Power shrine and I will gladly light the monk who designed that trial on fire. #10 - Central Who doesn’t have fond memories of running for your life from Guardians in this area? I enjoyed running around in the open field and slowly approaching Hyrule Castle. #9 - Hebra There isn’t a lot to do, but that’s the point. It’s supposed to feel empty and abandoned because of how poor the living conditions are. I really like the atmosphere of this snowy region, and finding the Leviathan skeleton in that big icy cave was just exhilarating. #8 - Dueling Peaks I love Kakariko Village, and I love walking between the dueling peaks. I have fond memories of getting a stunning view of Hyrule, while moving back and forth between the two twin memory shrines in frustration. #7 - Tabantha AKA the area with the best music. Rito Village, attack on Vah Medoh, Vah Medoh Dungeon etc. Even if I found the Vah Medoh quest to be kinda disappointing as a whole, getting a view of the mountainous area from the dungeon is still a treat. #6 - Eldin When I started the game and saw the volcano from the Great Plateau, my first thought was.. yep, I’m definitely gonna climb that. And it was hell. I loved it. Pretty much the same deal with Tabantha. Didn’t care much for the Vah Rudania quest, but climbing the volcano, talking to the Gorons, and the music in the dungeon were definitely highlights for me. I also found this area had the best shrines overall. #5 - Faron The tropical jungle with the Zonai Ruins was such a pleasure to walk through. Finding Lurelin Village was also a lovely treat, and Eventide Island was maybe my favorite side quest in the whole game. (I somehow ended up at Eventide Island early in the game because I thought that’s where you had to go for the “Hero’s Cache” side quest LMAO) #4 - Hateno I just love this area so much for so many reasons. Hateno Village, Mount Lanayru, Link’s House, Lanayru Promenade, freeing the dragon at the Spring of Wisdom, being surrounded by all of the mountains, it just feels so comfortable, yet exciting at the same time. #3 - Wasteland Vah Naboris was my favorite dungeon in the game. Solving these challenging puzzles while taking a stroll across the dunes of the desert was awesome. Not to mention Gerudo Town is awesome and host to some of the best side quests in the game. And riding the sand seals across the landscape is such a treat as well. #2 - Akkala What can I say? The visuals in this area are out of this world and there’s so many awesome locations in this area. The autumn trees, Akkala Citadel Ruins, Robbie’s Research Lab, Skull Lake, Tarrey Town, the Labyrinth Island, god I would happily live here. #1 - Lanayru - Just the most memorable area to me. The rain, Zora’s Domain, the path to Zora’s Domain were all overwhelmingly gorgeous and I loved reading all the different Stone monuments and learning about the Zora’s history. Also the Vah Ruta quest was the most memorable part about the game to me. The dungeon was haunting, the divine beast battle blew me away, the story behind it was the most tragic, and all of the Zora citizens had some special story with Link. I remember going bananas in this area with the Zora Armor because of all the waterfalls. This was pretty much when the game went from great to awesome for me.
Lanayru is definitely amazing. I remember I hated it at first cuz of the rain and i thought it was a dark and ugly place from the outside. I didn’t know there was a path that I had to take with Sidon. Instead I went in from the south. That was a big oof. I hated it because of how tough it was to get in from there, I was dumb lol. Once I did the battle with the beast it was so epic and once the rain cleared, I immediately changed my mind about it. It was so gorgeous that I wanted to start a 2nd play through after beating the game JUST so I can get into this area the right way. It was so worth it But my favorite would have to be eldin and gerudo. Idk why but I love the look of hot regions, especially how the background gets all fuzzy from the heat. I guess the cold areas in the game were more common and I got used to them already. The volcano and the lava already explains why I love it so much and the gerudo’s divine beast mission was the best one out of all for me. I love how expansive it is, it makes you feel like your cast-awayed and desperate for a noble pursuit lol Honorable mentions have to be the Akkala, it’s just so beautiful. And of course, great plateau, I had a blast with this region like everyone else.
I remember trying to find lanayru but I somehow managed to get around it and I ended up in akkala. I was like “where is it” and “these trees look weird” and I ended up getting help from my dad. I felt so stupid lol
I love the Lanayru region, since where I live I don't really get rain and it's one heat stroke after another. Seeing rain is really calming and relaxing to me, plus I love the Zora. So Lanayru is number 1 for me!
I personally like exploring Hyrule castle and challenging myself to beat every single enemy there before the next blood moon all the fun secret hidden areas were interesting to explore lol
I like to get to the highest point of the tallest tower. I hate heights so I enjoy being able to be daring and reckless! Plus I always wanted to climb onto the castle in A Link to the Past and now I can.
And the sound of the monkeys that you don’t get to see! What else is out there?! Plus you can pick any waterfall to sit by and watch and they’re all gorgeous
I don’t think that enough people appreciate how amazing the Great Plateau is at being a tutorial. When I first played, it never even felt like a tutorial, but here’s some things that make it great: - Just outside each of the shrines, there’s some form of treasure you can obtain by using the rune from that shrine. This teaches the player that these runes are useful outside of shrines. - To reach the Cryonis shrine, you have to move through a really cold area with icy water. This teaches the player about environmental damage, and the dangers of cold water. - The shrine of resurrection is great too. The barrels show that you can pick up and throw some things to break them. The new player will likely sprint out of stamina then, and then it recharges just in time for you to reach the wall that teaches climbing. - Reaching the magnesis shrine from the tower teaches the player how swimming functions. - Reaching the stasis shrine shows that in order to climb high, the player has to manage stamina effectively. - Reaching the bomb shrine shows that there are some enemies that it’s better for the player to run from. - If the player runs into the stone talus, that shows there are mini bosses in unexpected places.
My Favorite region is the Akkala Region. It just looked like a beautiful scenery from the Akkala Tower. I even made a challenge of my own where i could only explore Akkala for a week so that means no going elsewhere except Akkala
I’ve always loved the outskirts of west, north, and east hyrule, it’s so quiet, pretty, there’s no people, and there’s the mystery of what lies beyond the borders of the land.
@@gawagu8739 I actually haven’t been there yet, that’s why I didn’t mention it 😅 Also I haven’t been playing much since I commented cuz I’ve been super busy
Honestly while there are parts of Faron that I don't love, Lurelin Village might just be my favorite area in the game. The tropical feel really hits home for me and the relaxed atmosphere of the village and the area around it means that I've spent hours just roaming around, pretending to be a villager living a quiet life. It's so isolated that you forget that there's an evil force destroying the world or that there are gargantuan machines wreaking havoc on other regions. The fish and crabs are fun to hunt, the rafts mean that you can send the entire day at sea if you wish, and the beaches absolutely run with the game's gorgeous graphics. After that, it's a dead heat between Akkala, Hebra, and Gerudo Desert. I could go on for hours about those too but for everyone's sake I'll stay quiet
I like to admire the visible underwater details in botw personally. Like the giant flowers in the waters of skull lake and malanyas fairy fountain, or the giant corals near certain shores, and the ruins beneath the waters that surround the ancient tree stumps. Also how the ridgeland tower has that lake and inside has the giant mushroom platforms too. Personally if I was swimming around stuff so clear below me I'd be kinda angst but in the game it's just breathtaking.
I really do love the Akkala region the most. The scenery is gorgeous, weather is mostly good(unless you're on a hilltop with metal) and most enemies are easy to avoid. Can fully see why Terry Town was built there, it would honestly be my choice of settlement if I lived in Hyrule.
I really like Akkala and Faron region, they are really pleasant to watch the landscape and the vegetation. And also, both region have a stunning area with waterfalls.
I love how you had something positive to say about pretty much all of the regions. I think it really shows how much work must’ve gone into this game that even some of the worst areas have some pretty good highlights.
Yeah it is so dense if you know what I mean, if you have the DLC, there are 8 shrines there, the tower, the Shrine of Resurrection, plus all the enemies. 3 decayed guardians, a stone talus, a silver lynel (if in master mode), plus there are Bokoblin camps EVERYWHERE.
I’m a diehard Lynel hunter so my favorite regions are the Hebra, Akkala, and Eldin for sure. For anyone else that hunts them too it’s an amazing route, you can start snowballing through those two Lynels near Skull Lake (Akkala), then go through Eldin’s Flank (There will be 3 higher level, first to change color, lynels there), then once you finish the traverse will drop you on that trail that goes through Hebra, which if you’re up for it you can defeat those three Lynels in that main valley area as well. There’s also a traverse past one of the Lynels in the Hebra region (at the very top of the map, it’s small valley that goes along the edge of the world) that’s a pretty solid loot route as well. Most of the enemies along this route (including that Lynel route) are always couple colors higher than what you are so they give some pretty good drops. Then at the end of that route there’s another Lynel in the area as well. Sorry for the wall of text, but I definitely recommend it if you’re a combat addict like me..
There's also two lynels (one with a spear, one with a different weapon that I can't remember) just south-west of the great plateau And while you're near the plateau, you can do the silver one there :P (it's always silver, no matter how far you are into the game or whether you just started, but it only appears in master mode)
The Gerudo Desert region (or Wasteland region) is my favorite, cuz despite most of it just being.. well, deserted- I just love the whole atmosphere of it; The shifting temperatures, occasional gerudo travelers, gerudo culture itself, sand-seal surfing, fighting moldugas and just how different the vibe is from the rest of Hyrule, I just really think it's neat lol. (Plus *cough* cross-dressing Link- *cough*)
I love the orange mountains, the bright yellow grass, the little to non buildings and abundant monsters, while still having enough space to enjoy it without being attacked... and the atmosphere... I love it
Honestly, I really love exploring the Gerudo Highlands, lol. Tons of berries, many enemies, lots and lots of chests. Plus, the mimics make it way more interesting. 😂🤣 Not to mention, I just think snow is beautiful, I love the eighth heroine side quest, and shield surfing.
It's amazing to think that the Great Plateau was thought to a very big area at the start of the game with a lot to explore, only to soon find out that it's also the smallest region.
Hebra has so much gorgeous winter scenery but the tropical wonderland of faron is so stunning I honestly don’t have a favorite because of how great they both are
@@justinbombach9873 on the edges of it. There's Outskirt Stable in the southwest (northwest of the Great Plateau and west of the Colosseum), Riverside Stable in the (south?)east, and while not technically in the Central Hyrule region, Wetland Stable is in the very west part of the Lanayru Region, before all of the wetlands, so I count it as being on the edge of Hyrule Field, as you only have to cross a bridge from the field in the northeast to get to it.
Not only is Akkala the most beautiful region, it's got so much cool stuff in it too: - The Akkala Citadel, where the Hylians made their last stand against Calamity Ganon - A Great Fairy Fountain - The Spiral Island, where you have to carry a ball to the center for a shrine - Not one, but TWO stables! - Lots of gorgeous hills for you to shield surf on - The graveyard of dozens of Guardians who rushed the Citadel, full of ancient parts to loot - The Spring of Power - Skull Lake, and everyone's favorite shady salesman: Kilton! - The Akkala Ancient Tech Lab with Robbie and Cherry - One of the three Labyrinths - A long beach across the east side with plenty of seafood (and guardians you can Cryo-launch) - Multiple Lynels - And of course: Tarrey Town, baby!
Since I see no one talking about it I'll just write it here In Japanese, "Hate" is the extremity, the limit and "no" is used to link two words. So Hateno Village means Village of the limit(s) And I'll add that in the French version, it's named "Elimith", so when you say "village d'Elimith" it sounds like "village des limites" (limits village)
I'm pretty sure Hateno is named that because it is located towards the (eastern) edge of Hyrule. Therefore, the village of the edge/border [of Hyrule] is maybe a more appropriate way to call it? At least that is what the Japanese websites I read say.
@@loganjohnson6968 yes, I stuck with "limits" because that's also in the French version. Also my English vocabulary isn't that great, and you're right that's what "hate" can mean
Sometimes you forget how beautiful the world is. This was a good reminder. The developers did a great job at giving the game different types of landscapes and environments.
I have to say tabanta and hebra are probably my most favorite. I don't know why but the landscapes and the fact my favorite race lives there makes it so charming for me
This is my list: 15: Gerudo, because it is very barren and the only attractions are Farosh a giant sword and shrines. 14: Lake, It is very small and there could have been so much more especially with Lake Hylia, but I like Farosh. 13: Ridgeland I don't like the Lightning area but other than that it's fine, Satori mountain bumps it up a bit. 12: Central, the field is very bland but the guardians are fun and Hyrule Castle pushes it from last place. 11: Wasteland Gerudo Town is cool and attacking Vah Noboris is one of my favorite parts in the game, but I don't see the thrill in the desert, but there is also Moldugas which are fun 10: Woodland Korok forest is amazing and Typhlo Ruins is fun, so is the forgotten temple, but after that is done there's not much to do. 9: Dueling Peaks the Dueling Peaks mountains were an amazing sight and I love Kakariko Village, and I guess Fort Hateno is cool, but it's just hills and fields, however I do like the pillars surrounding Kakariko. 8: Eldin Looking at Vah Rudania is so cool and venturing through a volcano is cool, and I like Gorons but it's a meh region. 7: Great Plateau, a amazing tutorial and so fun to explore early in the game. 6: Tabantha I like the hills and... it's all because of Rito Village, my favorite Village in the game. 5: Hebra, makes for good sights and its fun to shield surf and ragdoll link there and it's also so big. 4: Akkala, I like the feeling of fall, and Akkala Citadel is one of the best spots in the game, and also Tarrey Town was fun. 3: Hateno, one of my favorite moments in the game was Naydra, Hateno Village was the first Village I found even before Kakariko and I remember not leaving it for a week or so. 2: Lanayru, Zora's domain is beautiful and I like how the stones glow, also Lanayru bay is fun and I don't know why but I like the peninsula, but the rain isn't fun. 1: Faron, I really like the rainforest, and Lurelin Village was the second Village I found. I like the beach and Lake Floria is a beautiful spot, Eventide is the best side quest.
I really like the whole Ridgeland/Tabantha/Tanagar Canyon area. It just feels so unique and adventurous. It also has my favorite shrine, that being the Thundra Plateau
Make a video saying how Zelda’s regions evolved and changed over the years Like death mountain, the lost woods or even lake Hylia. Try discussing how important those locations were in the past or how interesting they were back then and how interesting they are now
The great plateau is one of the best experiences I've had in video games, which I could just forget the opening of botw and replay it for the first time to experience that and the first time you glide off the plateau and go "oh god, IT'S MASSIVE"
1:50 The coliseum lynel is actually really easy,if you use the tactic I came up with,perfect for terrain requirements,and for casual players who just got their hands on ancient arrows(me) the castle is fun place to go to shoot some guardians for parts and fun,because guardians are like fire ants to me.
My list is. 1: wasteland 2: hebra 3: hateno 4: great plateau 5: tabantha 6: woodland 7: ridgeland 8: lake 9: faron 10: akkala 11: dueling peaks 12: lanayru 13: central 14: eldin 15: gerudo
Man, there were 15 regions? Felt like 8. I'd say worst is Hebra and best is Necluda or Faron. Also, Eldin would be the best if it had TPHD bridge of Eldin
My favorite region is weirdly the Ridgeland Region. I've just found so many cool things there. I also have a soft spot for the Dueling Peaks Region and Hateno Region because those were the first ones I went through after leaving the Great Plateau
I’ve always pronounced Hateno as “Hat-en-oh”, instead of “Het-ain-oh” if that makes any sense. Also I pronounce Akkala as “Ack-a-la” instead of “A-cala”, even though the second one is canonically correct.
I feel like it’s crazy after you beat the great plateau and you think that it was such a great big massive place to explore but then when you leave the plateau and you check the map it’s as tiny as a speck on the map and the real game has just started.
Great video, let's rank this thing! (Number in Brackets is the relative position compared to the Pirate's ranks.) 15. Woodland (-1): One cool tree and nothing else. 14. Ridgeland (-1): Thunder, Kass, and Satori, all surrounded by not a lot else. 13. Gerudo Highlands (+2): Small, but some cool mysteries here and there. 12. Lake Region (-2): Pretty diverse, but some parts are boring to traverse. 11. Lanayru (+1): Pros: Zora lore, Sidon, and the coast. Cons: Rain, boring summit, swamp. 10. Eldin (-2): Some wasted space due to the mountain, but it's unique and fun to relax in. 9. Tabantha (-5): I like the bridges, and Rito Village has a very cool layout. It's just a little small. 8. East Necluda/Hateno (-3): I find parts of it empty for some reason, but the mountain, that waterfall area, and some of Hateno are cool. 7. Gerudo Wasteland (-4): Somewhat ironically I love the Desert for the little snowy area, and Gerudo Town is one of my favourite places to return to in the game. But it's a little empty and annoying to traverse. 6. Faron Woods (=0): Big, diverse region. Lurelin and Eventide are the higlights. Some cool spots in the north, too. 5. Central Hyrule (+4). I'm counting Hyrule Castle and a few cool shrines, which might be cheating. Also two stables, and it's a cool place to battle. 4. Great Plateau (-3): Fully packed with cool stuff, although some of it is nothing special in the grand scheme of things. The tutorial is obviously one of the highlights of the game, though. 3. West Necluda/Kakariko (+8): It's just where a lot of my early game memories are. Also, some cool story, and I really enjoyed everything about the dueling peaks. 2. Akkala (=0): Granted, some parts are empty, but all of it is absolutely gorgeous. The lab with the fun flame quest, the coolest labyrinth, Tarrey Town, the coastline, and most importantly, Akkala Citadel Ruins, one of my favourite areas of the game. 1. Hebra (+6): A vast, monotonous, snowy area seems like an odd choice for my favourite, but this place is filled with secrets. I just love how so many of the shrines have unique overworld puzzles. So many interesting locations, and the snowy fog and "music" fits the mysterious aura perfectly. And that's without even mentioning shield surfing.
I know it doesn't have anything to do with the subject of this video, but you playing the "spicy meatball" commercial clip got me to remember something. That commercial is from, I believe, the 70s. It was for an alkaseltzer type (or however it's spelt) product, but instead of helping sales on that, it boosted sales of pasta sauce. Kinda funny. Oh, and I definitely agree that the Great Plateau is the best. Also the best training area in any zelda game I've played.
I did research on that meme before using it! I found that story to be super funny. 😂 Another fun fact about it, it was referenced in the movie "The Mask" with Jim Carrey.
I really liked the Lanayru region, and I actually enjoyed the rain. It forced you to be more creative with your path and find all kinds of interesting stuff in the woods. Also the Zora quest is my favourite of the divine beasts.
@@TheBreadPirate I do think a more in-depth video would be nice, but I also know a lot of people who prefer it like this. Uploading two videos (especially since one is just a different version) seems like a pain though, so idk
Tbh any major snow mountain is pretty much the same to me, the only exception being the north labyrinth. My biggest issue was largely just based around the dead zones were you can’t travel much of any further, and a lot of unnecessary climbing when Shrines are in hidden in the crevice of a mountain where you only have like 1 good entry point.
Honestly, I have no idea how old you are. But you sound like a guy I worked with before. How old are you? If you dont feel comfortable, then you dont have to answer.
This is how top 15s should be, instead of slowly/pointlessly explaining everything to stretch the video in 10 minutes, you do it quickly so you can get your point across without wasting anyone's time. Great video!
with the environments getting more unique and exotic the further into the corners of the map you go, Akkala, Faron, Wasteland, and Hebra are my favourite locations. Wasteland and Akkala stretch to the horizon and really get the player thinking about what's beyond. Hebra and Faron make you feel like you're in a Disney movie.
Since I've made it a personal challenge to never teleport anywhere in the game, I fear every snowy region and the desert. My hero's path looks very nice, though.
Akkala is my favourite. It's so diverse and treacherous with the Citadel, Skull Lake, the four islands, the first labyrinth many players will find, and way too many Guardians. But then you also have things like Robbie's lab and Tarrey Town, which are so wacky and unique that they give it a more pleasant tone.
I love Akkala and it is easily my number one. As someone who didn't immediately go into Hyrule Field, this place was the first to inject the terror into my blood that is the Guardian Skywatcher. Not only are there trees in a beautiful shade of sunset orange, gently rolling hills and picturesque vistas but also many ruins to marvel at and venture to. The tower in the area itself is a ruin surrounded by ruins! There's also large cliffs, beautiful beaches and a lake shaped like a skull. This area is always my first stop on a new play through.
The Faron region is my favorite. Between the rainforest area, the coast with Lurelin village and the little coves and inlets all around, it's so beautiful. Tabantha is a close second.
Hey man cool video good job, I would appreciate it if this video was maybe a bit longer I feel like you spoke a little fast and I would love to hear more of your comments about each region. Great video though keep it up! (:
The transition sound and song used in the video really hits it home for me. Windwaker was pretty much my 1st Zelda game that I got to play where I currently live. Sadly, I'll be leaving in about 11 days to another country, so the song really brought me back to my childhood before I permanently leave this place behind.
I never realized I was in good company regarding Akkala's gorgeous scenery. I always loved this region for its contrasting colors, especially the green grass on the red geography. Although I the only good thing I can say about Tarrey Town is it's music.
Beat region is Hebra. Fight me.
Okay!
* Punches Kyubeyz *
I do like it ngl

One trip to the Rito stable gets you almost all the wood you need for that quest.
It‘s accidentally speaking to Bolson after the wedding and having him camp out eternally in front of your house, that’s the real villain of that quest.
@@vadoslink446 yeah. I agree. The last time i went there, i gathered a lot of wood there.
So true
I think my favorite region has to be Faron. It feels like it's own world tucked away in the corner of the map with how different it is from the rest of the map and the fact that nothing in the main storyline really pushes you to go there makes it feel more discreet. And Lurelin village is so beautiful and has a nice vibe to it that really reminds me why I love this game. I do also really like Akkala, it's very beautiful and has the greatest video game side quest ever in it being Tarrey Town.
Exactly I love the faron so much
Completely agree
Faron is my favorite reason for the tropical theme it has
I remember being like 50 or 60 hours in so you could imagine my surprise discovering that Lurein village existed. I’d been to that shrine on the huge cliff near it so it really caught me off guard when I stumbled into it having been really close to discovering it earlier.
Same, Faron Gang rise up! ♥
I honestly love the akkala region. The trees remind me of fall. I love the scenery and the hills.
yeah same here but my main problem with it is that its always raining
@Stinkos Oh, for me, it doesn’t rain a ton it’s just about two or three times a BotW week
The ancient tech is so much fun to mess around with, especially the shield.
@@peanutkoa7912ya, the ancient shield is so slippery it’s amazing
@@stinkos1981 Also destroying the guardians in the ruined temple in the woodland region without needing to parry.
Great Plateau is the definition of a perfect tutorial, but my favorite region is Hebra, so much fun to shield surf, many great shrines to try and discover, and I just love exploring the mountains!
that's almost exactly what I said about Hebra, but I mentioned the lynels too :P
It also has a labyrinth and is free from guardians which are just an annoyance
The cold always turned me away
I love Hebra, but only when the weather is clear, which it barely ever is
Plus all of the moose and rhinos there make it a great hunting spot
"Many great shrines" *Major Test of Strenght*
i always liked the forest in faron and lurelin village is just really cool.
Same, I love the woods in Faron and after a lot of exploring, I go on vacation in Lurelin village.
I always thought it was just okay, except maybe the Mighty Bananas, those made the region much better :P
Same
Not just because there are the most Zonai ruins
Me tooooo
My favorite “region” is just the entire necluda. To me it always felt safe and homely
Well, it *is* supposed to be the first region you go to after the Great Plateau, storywise.
@@psuedonym9999 Exactly. It was my, and many other people’s, first introduction to Hyrule

@@tomnadoyeet6225 What is it supposed to be?
@@justinbombach9873 just search that on TH-cam and you’ll probably find it lol
@@rhettmitchell Oh I see XD
It's "They had us in the first half not gonna lie" lol
Ight story time: The first time I played Botw I skipped dialogue and didn't really stick to the dirt paths, I eventually made it to Rito village (my first Divine Beast) from an angle so that I didn't see the bridge or the stable near it, so I thought "wow I need to glide and climb my way to Rito village huh?". So I did.
After a LOT of tries I miraculously climbed my way to Rito village with 1 stamina wheel and 1/5th of the second one. I felt to good accomplishing that.......then I realized there was a bridge there....
I also didn't know you could cook with all of the cooking pots, I thought you needed to find a specific one in a village.
Moral of the story: Read the dialogue
Ha ha, that's hilarious!
I also forget there is a shirt to the cold temperatures in the Old Man house and I collected tons of mushrooms to enter to the next shrine, the freedom that Breath of the Wild gives is amazing and I find it when I get 450 Korok Seeds all the shrines collected, and I return to Great Plateau to take pictures with Red Bokoblins
I also didn't realize Rito Village had a bridge. But that's still not as bad as how I hopped mountain tops until I stumbled on Kakariko, so when my sister asked how to get somewhere while sitting on the road I had no idea where she was.
I've done that a few times, climbed up the side of a mountain only to realise there's a path that runs down the other side. Never done it with something as notable as a village though.
I couldn't agree more with Akkala and the Great Plateau on the top of the list.
Yeah Akkala was amazing, with Robbie there and the guardians at the Akkala Tower, made that place the best for anything guardian related :P
Are you joking me? That place is a living hell!
honestly they would be the lowest for me. At least down there
Theres a few cool things there but other than those its nothing but jagged ravines and death
@@zeldafan200 only when it rained
#15 - Gerudo
Yeah there’s just nothing too memorable about it. One thing that’s cool about it though is that it has the tallest Sheikah Tower of the fifteen, and it sticks out from a bottomless pit.
#14 - Great Plateau
I definitely hear you on your reasons for putting it on the top. Personally for me, I think it’s a wonderful tutorial area, but still compared to the other 13 areas, just nothing too special about it, other than the fact that its where it all began.
#13 - Lake
Yeah, there wasn’t a whole lot to do, but I honestly really loved Lake Hylia and Bridge of Hylia. Watching the dragon fly out of the lake for the first time was amazing. Also it has the thicc horse.
#12 - Ridgeland
The Sheikah Tower is a freaking pain to climb, but the area is still nice. Big mushrooms, swamps, and the big blossom tree on Satori Mountain. It also has Thundra Plateau, which was sick.
#11 - Woodland
Thyplo Ruins, Korok Forest, and the Forgotten Temple are awesome, even if a lot of areas are empty in this area. Although it does have the Tempered Power shrine and I will gladly light the monk who designed that trial on fire.
#10 - Central
Who doesn’t have fond memories of running for your life from Guardians in this area? I enjoyed running around in the open field and slowly approaching Hyrule Castle.
#9 - Hebra
There isn’t a lot to do, but that’s the point. It’s supposed to feel empty and abandoned because of how poor the living conditions are. I really like the atmosphere of this snowy region, and finding the Leviathan skeleton in that big icy cave was just exhilarating.
#8 - Dueling Peaks
I love Kakariko Village, and I love walking between the dueling peaks. I have fond memories of getting a stunning view of Hyrule, while moving back and forth between the two twin memory shrines in frustration.
#7 - Tabantha
AKA the area with the best music. Rito Village, attack on Vah Medoh, Vah Medoh Dungeon etc. Even if I found the Vah Medoh quest to be kinda disappointing as a whole, getting a view of the mountainous area from the dungeon is still a treat.
#6 - Eldin
When I started the game and saw the volcano from the Great Plateau, my first thought was.. yep, I’m definitely gonna climb that. And it was hell. I loved it. Pretty much the same deal with Tabantha. Didn’t care much for the Vah Rudania quest, but climbing the volcano, talking to the Gorons, and the music in the dungeon were definitely highlights for me. I also found this area had the best shrines overall.
#5 - Faron
The tropical jungle with the Zonai Ruins was such a pleasure to walk through. Finding Lurelin Village was also a lovely treat, and Eventide Island was maybe my favorite side quest in the whole game. (I somehow ended up at Eventide Island early in the game because I thought that’s where you had to go for the “Hero’s Cache” side quest LMAO)
#4 - Hateno
I just love this area so much for so many reasons. Hateno Village, Mount Lanayru, Link’s House, Lanayru Promenade, freeing the dragon at the Spring of Wisdom, being surrounded by all of the mountains, it just feels so comfortable, yet exciting at the same time.
#3 - Wasteland
Vah Naboris was my favorite dungeon in the game. Solving these challenging puzzles while taking a stroll across the dunes of the desert was awesome. Not to mention Gerudo Town is awesome and host to some of the best side quests in the game. And riding the sand seals across the landscape is such a treat as well.
#2 - Akkala
What can I say? The visuals in this area are out of this world and there’s so many awesome locations in this area. The autumn trees, Akkala Citadel Ruins, Robbie’s Research Lab, Skull Lake, Tarrey Town, the Labyrinth Island, god I would happily live here.
#1 - Lanayru - Just the most memorable area to me. The rain, Zora’s Domain, the path to Zora’s Domain were all overwhelmingly gorgeous and I loved reading all the different Stone monuments and learning about the Zora’s history. Also the Vah Ruta quest was the most memorable part about the game to me. The dungeon was haunting, the divine beast battle blew me away, the story behind it was the most tragic, and all of the Zora citizens had some special story with Link. I remember going bananas in this area with the Zora Armor because of all the waterfalls. This was pretty much when the game went from great to awesome for me.
:)
Lanayru is definitely amazing. I remember I hated it at first cuz of the rain and i thought it was a dark and ugly place from the outside. I didn’t know there was a path that I had to take with Sidon. Instead I went in from the south. That was a big oof. I hated it because of how tough it was to get in from there, I was dumb lol. Once I did the battle with the beast it was so epic and once the rain cleared, I immediately changed my mind about it. It was so gorgeous that I wanted to start a 2nd play through after beating the game JUST so I can get into this area the right way. It was so worth it
But my favorite would have to be eldin and gerudo. Idk why but I love the look of hot regions, especially how the background gets all fuzzy from the heat. I guess the cold areas in the game were more common and I got used to them already. The volcano and the lava already explains why I love it so much and the gerudo’s divine beast mission was the best one out of all for me. I love how expansive it is, it makes you feel like your cast-awayed and desperate for a noble pursuit lol
Honorable mentions have to be the Akkala, it’s just so beautiful. And of course, great plateau, I had a blast with this region like everyone else.
@Ametrine 7 I gave your comment its 100th like. 😉
I remember trying to find lanayru but I somehow managed to get around it and I ended up in akkala. I was like “where is it” and “these trees look weird” and I ended up getting help from my dad. I felt so stupid lol
Awesome list!
I love the Lanayru region, since where I live I don't really get rain and it's one heat stroke after another.
Seeing rain is really calming and relaxing to me, plus I love the Zora.
So Lanayru is number 1 for me!
That's a cool reason!
I personally quite like the coral-like plants :3
I live where it rains all day long
I like the blue stones
You must live in Arizona?
This was a really good video because there was no WM filler and the pacing was fast
Fast is how I like it!
@@TheBreadPirate That's what she said
I personally like exploring Hyrule castle and challenging myself to beat every single enemy there before the next blood moon all the fun secret hidden areas were interesting to explore lol
Heck yah! That area is a blast.
Fun fact, blood moons don't occur in the castle.
Well unless you sleep then they do happen.
I like to get to the highest point of the tallest tower. I hate heights so I enjoy being able to be daring and reckless! Plus I always wanted to climb onto the castle in A Link to the Past and now I can.
I really like how the Gorons always look in a happy mood and they have unique expressions and the Zora people remember link
Faron got me
-tropical forist
-lurelin village
-OH MY GOD IS THAT A ZONAI RUIN
And the sound of the monkeys that you don’t get to see! What else is out there?! Plus you can pick any waterfall to sit by and watch and they’re all gorgeous
@@ericastein3926 correct
Ya faron is definitely my favourite
I don’t think that enough people appreciate how amazing the Great Plateau is at being a tutorial. When I first played, it never even felt like a tutorial, but here’s some things that make it great:
- Just outside each of the shrines, there’s some form of treasure you can obtain by using the rune from that shrine. This teaches the player that these runes are useful outside of shrines.
- To reach the Cryonis shrine, you have to move through a really cold area with icy water. This teaches the player about environmental damage, and the dangers of cold water.
- The shrine of resurrection is great too. The barrels show that you can pick up and throw some things to break them. The new player will likely sprint out of stamina then, and then it recharges just in time for you to reach the wall that teaches climbing.
- Reaching the magnesis shrine from the tower teaches the player how swimming functions.
- Reaching the stasis shrine shows that in order to climb high, the player has to manage stamina effectively.
- Reaching the bomb shrine shows that there are some enemies that it’s better for the player to run from.
- If the player runs into the stone talus, that shows there are mini bosses in unexpected places.
My Favorite region is the Akkala Region. It just looked like a beautiful scenery from the Akkala Tower. I even made a challenge of my own where i could only explore Akkala for a week so that means no going elsewhere except Akkala
Dang! That sounds like fun.
That’s so cool dude!
Same
I’ve always loved the outskirts of west, north, and east hyrule, it’s so quiet, pretty, there’s no people, and there’s the mystery of what lies beyond the borders of the land.
What about the outskirts of South Hyrule?
@@gawagu8739 I actually haven’t been there yet, that’s why I didn’t mention it 😅
Also I haven’t been playing much since I commented cuz I’ve been super busy
@@Lukemiester16 You will love the south. Great beaches.
@@gawagu8739 well I guess that means I’ll have to check it out :D
Zora's Domain is my favourite place to visit. Beautiful scenery, beautiful music and has both Sidon and Mipha. So Lanaryu is the best region to me
Totally agree with you
And the Zoras appreciate you too! (Link)
Honestly while there are parts of Faron that I don't love, Lurelin Village might just be my favorite area in the game. The tropical feel really hits home for me and the relaxed atmosphere of the village and the area around it means that I've spent hours just roaming around, pretending to be a villager living a quiet life. It's so isolated that you forget that there's an evil force destroying the world or that there are gargantuan machines wreaking havoc on other regions. The fish and crabs are fun to hunt, the rafts mean that you can send the entire day at sea if you wish, and the beaches absolutely run with the game's gorgeous graphics. After that, it's a dead heat between Akkala, Hebra, and Gerudo Desert. I could go on for hours about those too but for everyone's sake I'll stay quiet
can we appreciate the editing skills used in this video. like- every shot of this is just so good
Ayy, thanks Yae! Not many people appreciate how time consuming it is to get every shot in a video.
I like to admire the visible underwater details in botw personally. Like the giant flowers in the waters of skull lake and malanyas fairy fountain, or the giant corals near certain shores, and the ruins beneath the waters that surround the ancient tree stumps. Also how the ridgeland tower has that lake and inside has the giant mushroom platforms too. Personally if I was swimming around stuff so clear below me I'd be kinda angst but in the game it's just breathtaking.
the faron region was so pretty but god i couldn’t stand playing there.....the rain was so annoying lol but the village was great
This is brilliant!
No U!
(Thanks Adam. 😁)
You two are literally my favorite youtubers
@@TheBreadPirate yaaaay HG replied to you!
but i like this. "points at farosh"
I really do love the Akkala region the most. The scenery is gorgeous, weather is mostly good(unless you're on a hilltop with metal) and most enemies are easy to avoid. Can fully see why Terry Town was built there, it would honestly be my choice of settlement if I lived in Hyrule.
Amem. I would live in Tarry Town!
Yes
this video sounds like a tourist guide for someone who is going to Hyrule, and I love it
I really like Akkala and Faron region, they are really pleasant to watch the landscape and the vegetation.
And also, both region have a stunning area with waterfalls.
I actually really loved Hyrule Fields, the boundless hills of green just *feels* like Zelda
Same for me especially central hyrule, east and west necluda
I love how you had something positive to say about pretty much all of the regions. I think it really shows how much work must’ve gone into this game that even some of the worst areas have some pretty good highlights.
Nintendo rocks like that.
The great plateau also is my fav! It feels so big even tho other regions are way bigger...
Exactly!
Yeah it is so dense if you know what I mean, if you have the DLC, there are 8 shrines there, the tower, the Shrine of Resurrection, plus all the enemies. 3 decayed guardians, a stone talus, a silver lynel (if in master mode), plus there are Bokoblin camps EVERYWHERE.
@@justinbombach9873 I have the DLC but only 4 shrines. Do they unlock after doing something?
@@haywoodjblome4768 all 4 divine beasts, and then you are in for a good time
@@thenewherooftime815 thanks!
I’m a diehard Lynel hunter so my favorite regions are the Hebra, Akkala, and Eldin for sure. For anyone else that hunts them too it’s an amazing route, you can start snowballing through those two Lynels near Skull Lake (Akkala), then go through Eldin’s Flank (There will be 3 higher level, first to change color, lynels there), then once you finish the traverse will drop you on that trail that goes through Hebra, which if you’re up for it you can defeat those three Lynels in that main valley area as well.
There’s also a traverse past one of the Lynels in the Hebra region (at the very top of the map, it’s small valley that goes along the edge of the world) that’s a pretty solid loot route as well. Most of the enemies along this route (including that Lynel route) are always couple colors higher than what you are so they give some pretty good drops. Then at the end of that route there’s another Lynel in the area as well. Sorry for the wall of text, but I definitely recommend it if you’re a combat addict like me..
There's also two lynels (one with a spear, one with a different weapon that I can't remember) just south-west of the great plateau
And while you're near the plateau, you can do the silver one there :P (it's always silver, no matter how far you are into the game or whether you just started, but it only appears in master mode)
The Gerudo Desert region (or Wasteland region) is my favorite, cuz despite most of it just being.. well, deserted- I just love the whole atmosphere of it; The shifting temperatures, occasional gerudo travelers, gerudo culture itself, sand-seal surfing, fighting moldugas and just how different the vibe is from the rest of Hyrule, I just really think it's neat lol. (Plus *cough* cross-dressing Link- *cough*)
I love the orange mountains, the bright yellow grass, the little to non buildings and abundant monsters, while still having enough space to enjoy it without being attacked... and the atmosphere... I love it
Honestly, I really love exploring the Gerudo Highlands, lol. Tons of berries, many enemies, lots and lots of chests. Plus, the mimics make it way more interesting. 😂🤣 Not to mention, I just think snow is beautiful, I love the eighth heroine side quest, and shield surfing.
The Bread Pirate and Nayru both upload within less than 30 minutes of each other? Coincidence??? I THINK NOT!!!
I spied on his upload schedule so I could upload at the same time as him.
@@TheBreadPirate The archrival war wages on....
Yes right here, officer.
It's amazing to think that the Great Plateau was thought to a very big area at the start of the game with a lot to explore, only to soon find out that it's also the smallest region.
Hebra has so much gorgeous winter scenery but the tropical wonderland of faron is so stunning I honestly don’t have a favorite because of how great they both are
It wasn't easy making this list, you're right about how awesome all the regions are!
So hyped to see all the new regions on top of those new islands in BOTW 2!
I’ll be more hyped if they put proper dungeons back into the sequel.
The center of hyrule was the best, all the citizens were cool....oh wait, I mean all buildings were nice.... oh never mind
Oof!
(Cries in Destroyed Building)
* Cries in trying to read this *
lol
isn't there a stable somewhere in Central Hyrule though? So there would be some residents or buildings.
@@justinbombach9873 ha true but takes away from the comment lol
@@justinbombach9873 on the edges of it. There's Outskirt Stable in the southwest (northwest of the Great Plateau and west of the Colosseum), Riverside Stable in the (south?)east, and while not technically in the Central Hyrule region, Wetland Stable is in the very west part of the Lanayru Region, before all of the wetlands, so I count it as being on the edge of Hyrule Field, as you only have to cross a bridge from the field in the northeast to get to it.
Not only is Akkala the most beautiful region, it's got so much cool stuff in it too:
- The Akkala Citadel, where the Hylians made their last stand against Calamity Ganon
- A Great Fairy Fountain
- The Spiral Island, where you have to carry a ball to the center for a shrine
- Not one, but TWO stables!
- Lots of gorgeous hills for you to shield surf on
- The graveyard of dozens of Guardians who rushed the Citadel, full of ancient parts to loot
- The Spring of Power
- Skull Lake, and everyone's favorite shady salesman: Kilton!
- The Akkala Ancient Tech Lab with Robbie and Cherry
- One of the three Labyrinths
- A long beach across the east side with plenty of seafood (and guardians you can Cryo-launch)
- Multiple Lynels
- And of course: Tarrey Town, baby!
Since I see no one talking about it I'll just write it here
In Japanese, "Hate" is the extremity, the limit and "no" is used to link two words. So Hateno Village means Village of the limit(s)
And I'll add that in the French version, it's named "Elimith", so when you say "village d'Elimith" it sounds like "village des limites" (limits village)
that's actually super interesting
I'm pretty sure Hateno is named that because it is located towards the (eastern) edge of Hyrule. Therefore, the village of the edge/border [of Hyrule] is maybe a more appropriate way to call it? At least that is what the Japanese websites I read say.
@@loganjohnson6968 that's what the original commenter is trying to say
@@loganjohnson6968 yes, I stuck with "limits" because that's also in the French version. Also my English vocabulary isn't that great, and you're right that's what "hate" can mean
in italian is “finterra” which literally means fine (end) + terra (earth).. end of the earth
Glad that Tabantha is so high on the list. Love that region. Also lol, #1 surprised me since I forgot about it 😅
Sometimes you forget how beautiful the world is. This was a good reminder. The developers did a great job at giving the game different types of landscapes and environments.
I have to say tabanta and hebra are probably my most favorite. I don't know why but the landscapes and the fact my favorite race lives there makes it so charming for me
The birb people are great so I think that makes sense!
This is my list:
15: Gerudo, because it is very barren and the only attractions are Farosh a giant sword and shrines.
14: Lake, It is very small and there could have been so much more especially with Lake Hylia, but I like Farosh.
13: Ridgeland I don't like the Lightning area but other than that it's fine, Satori mountain bumps it up a bit.
12: Central, the field is very bland but the guardians are fun and Hyrule Castle pushes it from last place.
11: Wasteland Gerudo Town is cool and attacking Vah Noboris is one of my favorite parts in the game, but I don't see the thrill in the desert, but there is also Moldugas which are fun
10: Woodland Korok forest is amazing and Typhlo Ruins is fun, so is the forgotten temple, but after that is done there's not much to do.
9: Dueling Peaks the Dueling Peaks mountains were an amazing sight and I love Kakariko Village, and I guess Fort Hateno is cool, but it's just hills and fields, however I do like the pillars surrounding Kakariko.
8: Eldin Looking at Vah Rudania is so cool and venturing through a volcano is cool, and I like Gorons but it's a meh region.
7: Great Plateau, a amazing tutorial and so fun to explore early in the game.
6: Tabantha I like the hills and... it's all because of Rito Village, my favorite Village in the game.
5: Hebra, makes for good sights and its fun to shield surf and ragdoll link there and it's also so big.
4: Akkala, I like the feeling of fall, and Akkala Citadel is one of the best spots in the game, and also Tarrey Town was fun.
3: Hateno, one of my favorite moments in the game was Naydra, Hateno Village was the first Village I found even before Kakariko and I remember not leaving it for a week or so.
2: Lanayru, Zora's domain is beautiful and I like how the stones glow, also Lanayru bay is fun and I don't know why but I like the peninsula, but the rain isn't fun.
1: Faron, I really like the rainforest, and Lurelin Village was the second Village I found. I like the beach and Lake Floria is a beautiful spot, Eventide is the best side quest.
Dang you really went all out didn't you
I almost agree with this 100%, maybe Dueling Peaks and Akkala higher
This feels like a video that should've been made ages ago, good idea lol
This is pretty accurate.... very good. The plateau is very good. I love it.
I really like the whole Ridgeland/Tabantha/Tanagar Canyon area. It just feels so unique and adventurous. It also has my favorite shrine, that being the Thundra Plateau
Make a video saying how Zelda’s regions evolved and changed over the years
Like death mountain, the lost woods or even lake Hylia. Try discussing how important those locations were in the past or how interesting they were back then and how interesting they are now
Sounds like an idea for a timeline theory.
That's not my usual content, but I'll think about it.
@@TheBreadPirate That would be really cool. Hope you do it!
The great plateau is one of the best experiences I've had in video games, which I could just forget the opening of botw and replay it for the first time to experience that and the first time you glide off the plateau and go "oh god, IT'S MASSIVE"
I love Akkala because living in an equatorial climate, fall/autumn straight up doesn't exist. I get to see what I'm missing out on. :D
4:07 and not to forget you cant ride a horse in the great plateau so you can see every detail
1:50
The coliseum lynel is actually really easy,if you use the tactic I came up with,perfect for terrain requirements,and for casual players who just got their hands on ancient arrows(me) the castle is fun place to go to shoot some guardians for parts and fun,because guardians are like fire ants to me.
Sounds like something a combat wizard would say. 😂
@@TheBreadPirate I’m a casual combat wizard

Man, there were 15 regions? Felt like 8. I'd say worst is Hebra and best is Necluda or Faron. Also, Eldin would be the best if it had TPHD bridge of Eldin
I agree. The bridge of eldin would make it better.

@@grantw1899 I know
My favorite region is weirdly the Ridgeland Region. I've just found so many cool things there. I also have a soft spot for the Dueling Peaks Region and Hateno Region because those were the first ones I went through after leaving the Great Plateau
I’ve always pronounced Hateno as “Hat-en-oh”, instead of “Het-ain-oh” if that makes any sense. Also I pronounce Akkala as “Ack-a-la” instead of “A-cala”, even though the second one is canonically correct.
Pfft... who cares about canonicity. The only cannon I care about is the one I use for blasting people! 🔫

Great video, let's rank this thing! (Number in Brackets is the relative position compared to the Pirate's ranks.)
15. Woodland (-1): One cool tree and nothing else.
14. Ridgeland (-1): Thunder, Kass, and Satori, all surrounded by not a lot else.
13. Gerudo Highlands (+2): Small, but some cool mysteries here and there.
12. Lake Region (-2): Pretty diverse, but some parts are boring to traverse.
11. Lanayru (+1): Pros: Zora lore, Sidon, and the coast. Cons: Rain, boring summit, swamp.
10. Eldin (-2): Some wasted space due to the mountain, but it's unique and fun to relax in.
9. Tabantha (-5): I like the bridges, and Rito Village has a very cool layout. It's just a little small.
8. East Necluda/Hateno (-3): I find parts of it empty for some reason, but the mountain, that waterfall area, and some of Hateno are cool.
7. Gerudo Wasteland (-4): Somewhat ironically I love the Desert for the little snowy area, and Gerudo Town is one of my favourite places to return to in the game. But it's a little empty and annoying to traverse.
6. Faron Woods (=0): Big, diverse region. Lurelin and Eventide are the higlights. Some cool spots in the north, too.
5. Central Hyrule (+4). I'm counting Hyrule Castle and a few cool shrines, which might be cheating. Also two stables, and it's a cool place to battle.
4. Great Plateau (-3): Fully packed with cool stuff, although some of it is nothing special in the grand scheme of things. The tutorial is obviously one of the highlights of the game, though.
3. West Necluda/Kakariko (+8): It's just where a lot of my early game memories are. Also, some cool story, and I really enjoyed everything about the dueling peaks.
2. Akkala (=0): Granted, some parts are empty, but all of it is absolutely gorgeous. The lab with the fun flame quest, the coolest labyrinth, Tarrey Town, the coastline, and most importantly, Akkala Citadel Ruins, one of my favourite areas of the game.
1. Hebra (+6): A vast, monotonous, snowy area seems like an odd choice for my favourite, but this place is filled with secrets. I just love how so many of the shrines have unique overworld puzzles. So many interesting locations, and the snowy fog and "music" fits the mysterious aura perfectly. And that's without even mentioning shield surfing.
Wait.. OPINIONS!?
Yes!
This is a very cool and unique idea, even though it's been 4+ years I've never seen this topic before

I know it doesn't have anything to do with the subject of this video, but you playing the "spicy meatball" commercial clip got me to remember something. That commercial is from, I believe, the 70s. It was for an alkaseltzer type (or however it's spelt) product, but instead of helping sales on that, it boosted sales of pasta sauce. Kinda funny. Oh, and I definitely agree that the Great Plateau is the best. Also the best training area in any zelda game I've played.
I did research on that meme before using it! I found that story to be super funny. 😂
Another fun fact about it, it was referenced in the movie "The Mask" with Jim Carrey.
E
(I haven’t watched the vid yet, so have this statement)
Thank you for the statement.
I really liked the Lanayru region, and I actually enjoyed the rain. It forced you to be more creative with your path and find all kinds of interesting stuff in the woods. Also the Zora quest is my favourite of the divine beasts.
I would've preferred a more in depth video for this subject
Oof. I'll take than into account in the future.
@@TheBreadPirate I do think a more in-depth video would be nice, but I also know a lot of people who prefer it like this. Uploading two videos (especially since one is just a different version) seems like a pain though, so idk
@@grantw1899 Yah, uploading two would be weird.
@@TheBreadPirate haha I hope that wasn't rude. 😳 you don't owe me anything 🤣🤣
@@WhoElseButZane Pfft, nonsense! I appreciate the feedback.
Tbh any major snow mountain is pretty much the same to me, the only exception being the north labyrinth. My biggest issue was largely just based around the dead zones were you can’t travel much of any further, and a lot of unnecessary climbing when Shrines are in hidden in the crevice of a mountain where you only have like 1 good entry point.
Honestly, I have no idea how old you are. But you sound like a guy I worked with before. How old are you? If you dont feel comfortable, then you dont have to answer.
20!
Not sure if I've worked with an Ethan Mainhood before. Unless you're in upstate New York.
@@TheBreadPirate definitely not then lol, I live in Canada, and have never left lol
This is how top 15s should be, instead of slowly/pointlessly explaining everything to stretch the video in 10 minutes, you do it quickly so you can get your point across without wasting anyone's time. Great video!
I'm The first!
Another amazing video by an amazing and underrated TH-camr!
Ayy, thanks gewoon.
Hoi
I just gotta say, the princess bride reference as your outro thing makes me smile every time
First
Heheheh
Nah
I was so close
with the environments getting more unique and exotic the further into the corners of the map you go, Akkala, Faron, Wasteland, and Hebra are my favourite locations. Wasteland and Akkala stretch to the horizon and really get the player thinking about what's beyond. Hebra and Faron make you feel like you're in a Disney movie.
i love how condensed but still informative and entertaining this video was!! definitely deserved a like
Always love your videos dude. Great channel.
Ayy, thanks Jonni!
Since I've made it a personal challenge to never teleport anywhere in the game, I fear every snowy region and the desert.
My hero's path looks very nice, though.
No kidding! Your heroes path will look sick
Akkala is my favourite. It's so diverse and treacherous with the Citadel, Skull Lake, the four islands, the first labyrinth many players will find, and way too many Guardians. But then you also have things like Robbie's lab and Tarrey Town, which are so wacky and unique that they give it a more pleasant tone.
I personally love the Faron region. It feels so secluded and like its own little mini world within the already insanely large map
I love Akkala and it is easily my number one. As someone who didn't immediately go into Hyrule Field, this place was the first to inject the terror into my blood that is the Guardian Skywatcher. Not only are there trees in a beautiful shade of sunset orange, gently rolling hills and picturesque vistas but also many ruins to marvel at and venture to. The tower in the area itself is a ruin surrounded by ruins! There's also large cliffs, beautiful beaches and a lake shaped like a skull. This area is always my first stop on a new play through.
The Faron region is my favorite. Between the rainforest area, the coast with Lurelin village and the little coves and inlets all around, it's so beautiful. Tabantha is a close second.
Hey man cool video good job, I would appreciate it if this video was maybe a bit longer I feel like you spoke a little fast and I would love to hear more of your comments about each region. Great video though keep it up! (:
Thanks for the tip! I agree.
The transition sound and song used in the video really hits it home for me. Windwaker was pretty much my 1st Zelda game that I got to play where I currently live. Sadly, I'll be leaving in about 11 days to another country, so the song really brought me back to my childhood before I permanently leave this place behind.
Dang! That's so melancholy.
I hope your trip goes well and that you can visit your home country again someday.
I never realized I was in good company regarding Akkala's gorgeous scenery. I always loved this region for its contrasting colors, especially the green grass on the red geography. Although I the only good thing I can say about Tarrey Town is it's music.
