You mean the pic for the two Gorons?
gamingeek said:How the hell do you take a picture of that smiling lake with a rock creature in the middle?
I've tried a balloon, a glider, even lifted a boulder and stood on top.
Cant do it while falling or with the parasail.
It's pissing me off.
Yep, I'm there too, I have no earthly idea what to do with this picture.

I think its a stable picture request.
I beat the water temple, so easy. And the boss too.
I think having two cannons on spears helped. Z target and blast the bastard so he couldn't run about and hide.
There's a Nintendo life shield fusions video that's fun.
I mounted a spring on my shield, quite funny.
Been exploring the depths, lit sooo many light roots.
Zoom the map out with a sense of satisfaction. 🙂
Then realise I've done about 2% of the depths map. 😂
Some ruminations.
I like how the new traversal options make Hyrule itself feel much smaller. it's so much easier to climb mountains when you can just ride a boulder back up into the sky. Just being able to see Hyrule from in the sky makes travelling so much easier. It's as if Hyrule itself is a pocket sized version of itself as a side dish between the sky world and the nether realm.
Connecting the nether world and Hyrule through the shrines/roots is a stroke of genius. If you've done enough shrines in an area it gives you a sense of direction and purpose when you dive down into the nether world.
Seems to me that the nether world is more or less a flipped version of Hyrule itself. Mountains up top seem to become deep valleys down bellow.
The nether world is too samey. I haven't explored that much of it, but it seems like there are very few different biomes, the only defining factor so far being yes lava or no lava.
battling big baddies like the block robots isn't worth it. The rewards are too little
I'm playing with some self imposed restrictions. I'll only warp anywhere when I need to get back to the surface or up high in the sky and will always retrieve my horse.
Would have been cool to have some villages with twilight people there or something.
I did find a cheaper easier way to traverse the depths with autobuild.
Ive done 3 temples. About to start the lightning temple but I've been too busy doing side tracked things.
I love the game, its really excellent. However the one thing I can't get past or look over is that they literally copy and pasted BOTWs over world.
The sky stuff is too little, too barren and too samey. I like the depths but it needs more life down there.
The bulk of what I'm playing is BOTW. It's actually going to make BOTW less enjoyable to replay as it will be your 3rd time in the overworld.
The new mechanics are really excellent though.
The "dungeons" so far are nowhere near as good as the older games.
If this game had a new world, like most Zelda games it would be a delight to uncover. The familiarity with the world from BOTW is a negative overall.
Still a great and enjoyable game. I can't stop playing and it's making my downtime very pleasant since I started it weeks ago.
I know where she's supposed to be, but she's not showing up.
One more Dungeon to go?
Riju was annoying. I kept trying to run up to her to activate her lightning, but she kept flipping about fighting so I couldn't.
Wish that I could go around with the sages as a team rather than spectral versions. Would be cool and add character to the game.
Zelda needs full voice acting at this point too.
Yeah wish there was a better way to activate the sages powers. It was also a bit annoying when you accidentally triggered them by pressing the button to perform another action instead.
Shouldn't be a distance limit on her lightning, then they could ditch the filter.
Haven't fought a single Triple head dragon thing yet. What's the best way to approach it?
Still only completed 2 temples. I've been travelling the lands. That Gleeok on the bridge over lake Hyrule is pretty annoying.
How many freaking level 70 Royal guard shields do they throw at you??
I had to replace my entire shield collection.
Or was it some calamity pig spirit thing? I thought ganon was the pig thing. He's always morphing into a pig 🤔
It was Calamity Ganon.
Beat the Gleeok last night. Good fight, love how he circled around the pillar I was clinging to.
Easier than I thought though. Most of these big enemies you knock on their ass, run up to and wail on.
The monster I had problems with was a rock monster who lived in a lake and had the weak spot on his back.
What a piece of shit. I hadn't fought one since BOTW.
But the gloom was the problem, I hardly had any gloom recovery meals.
I was using ganons gloom weapons which was sapping my hearts too.
All my weapons were breaking, half my shields too.
Once you beat one lynel there was no time to re-fuse materials to your weapons.
I tried to cook using a zonai pot, game said you can't cook when enemies are near.
I climbed up behind a solid brick wall for a break to reequip but the game let the Lynels electric attacks hit me behind the wall.
I got the last lynel to half health before having to retreat up top above the colliseum. Cooked some meals, re fused weapons, went back down to finish him and the game respawned him with full health.
So I beat the fucker and at the end, all the other stuff the dead Lynels had left on the ground had disappeared because I left the arena.
So out of all of that I got a few Lynel horns and 1 bow.
Having broken all my best weapons.
You didnt get the cool treasure?
I loved that Lynel fight. I just really enjoy fighting Lynels in general but that was very intense.
travo said:You didnt get the cool treasure?
the mask? Sure.
Didn't help that the sage spirits were running about so I couldn't activate their powers.
My favourite thing at the moment is sending mini zonai tanks with cannons in to clear out mines.
Hilarious to sit back and watch. Or get involved and get indirectly blown up by your own creation.
That construct you control seems pointless. Slow and not particularly powerful.
Anyway to upgrade it outside of the usual zonai attachments?
I've tried a balloon, a glider, even lifted a boulder and stood on top.
Cant do it while falling or with the parasail.
It's pissing me off.
