Really, bring everything. The towers are a bitch to conquer. I remember being pissed off at an earlier tower for requiring more stamina. Oh how naive I was.
Best one so far was 5 electric Lizzofols and 4 Electric Poes and somehow getting to the top without dying. Granted I came armed to the teeth and with shite tons of cooked food, but I didn't think I stood a chance without dying up that tower. fricking made it, bi-otch.

But playing it further, this is "Princess Mononoke: The Game" on steroids. It is clearly inspired by Miyazaki, and it's amazing.
Edit: and hell, save for the amnesia, it's the same plot as Avatar the Last Airbender. Loving it so far.

I hope the other towers are easier. I just spent about an hour trying to make it up with just four hearts, the ice blocks and about twenty arrows. I've played for like eight hours today, and really not much to show for it other than beating the Talus on the plateau and taming a near-perfect horse.

I said it that way so everyone would know what I was talking about

That's the one with the kind of pool/lake at the bottom, yeah? With some mushrooms just below the surface for you to stand on in a few spots?
I tried to dodge them and climb for a while but I was getting frustrated so I just killed them all

left plateu and went SE because it was the closest tower i saw. found a mallet that did 54 dmg and a boomarang that did 24. then i go in a shrine near by and it gives me a boomerang that does 8..... lol.

I try rolling my head back and forth when this happens and it wakes me up. It's weird though because you have to fight to not fall back into your dream.
I'll try that thanks. Usually I am trying to move arms or legs or sit up which feels impossibly hard for a while.
This time I kept fighting out of it each time, but when I could move I would roll over, feel super comfy and fall back asleep. Damn Kakariko village music!

This fricking deer gave itself a heart attack rather than let me ride it

I agree that so many open-world sandboxes have sacrificed core gameplay for size and amount of content (Ubisoft, Bethesda), but I don't think this new Zelda game is revelatory in maintaining great gameplay systems in an open-ended world.
Great article by Forbes on how this is just on another level from every other RPG

That wasn't even the point of the article. It was about how every open world game is about grinding for completion and XP, but this game sells you so hard on actual exploration. "Not about XP, about the experience."

Finding all the memory spots is going to be tough. I have gotten one

You know the Smash Bro Amiibo summons Epona?
Love how we can use 3yr old Amiibos.

Fire arrows are so strong

If all it took to make open-world games great was to remove intricate RPG elements, then Ubisoft should be considered one of the greatest studios of all-time.
The main point that I got from the article was that the author finds random exploration in BotW fun because the core is fun. Fighting random moblin camps is actually fun. The motivation to explore is fun, not XP or completionism.
But, again, that's something that I would argue isn't exclusive to BotW. I'd argue that Horizon is similar in its focus on combat systems and world-building. True, Zelda is way more expansive, has deeper puzzle and survival mechanics, but those are what separates the two. Not the "experience," which is code for "blind Zelda hype."

Why does everyone have to be dead in this game. It's so depressing when you think about it.

I was pretty annoyed the first 15 times Sidon did his stupid grin, now I just giggle when he does it.

Well.. the Guardians sort of destroyed almost everything.
EDT: It will all be a dream. Don't worry.

Just finished my first temple (Zora). That was hard. Feel dumb for it taking me so long to figure out one thing that is obvious in retrospect.
But Jesus Christ, what did Ganon do to himself? He used to be a grandiose villain who just wanted to conquer the world. Now he's a Eldritch Abomination with no motives but to destroy the world entirely. He's now Majora meets Giygas from Earthbound, which is totally horrifying. Does seem to have any of his personality left save for his rage.
