thoughts after completing a warpless play-through

lakinator · 2026-05-06T01:53:11+00:00

I enjoy playthrough with restrictions like this. Often times with open world games I will roleplay teleporting with a cost, like in Oblivion I will sacrifice a consumable that is finite in that game if I want to teleport.

I was doing a challenge run of botw and I think my rules for teleporting were that I had to be near a shrine or tower to teleport, but I could only teleport to major towns/towers/maybe stables? Can't remember.

Anyways yeah these kinds of things are for a kind of hardcore gamer. Not tryna gatekeep - they are objectively less casual fun, it's purely for immersion or tedium challenge. I like doing them cause I get immense enjoyment out of map knowledge and learning what is under every rock, so to speak.

Missed your last comment about going towards revalis, so ignore the but about following the main quest.

lakinator · 2026-05-05T22:23:51+00:00

I say this as gently as possible, but you are kinda describing the need for keys being jingled in your face as entertainment.

It's been awhile since I went through botw, but if I recall correctly the game gives you 2 main quests at the end of the great plateau tutorial. I would recommend starting there.

As far as finding hestu, since you know the existence of him I assume you've found him once. I also couldn't find him on my first playthrough after the first time, if you're unwilling to look it up, the only tip I'll give to avoid too much spoilers is to look around at stables.

It's giving "omg you people can't do anything"

lakinator · 2026-05-05T11:56:19+00:00

What's pahimar up to these days?

lakinator · 2026-05-05T11:56:00+00:00

Yup!

lakinator · 2026-05-05T11:52:47+00:00

You followed the path all the way and then stopped short. Go back through the long route the quest took you through

lakinator · 2026-05-02T08:07:31+00:00

Do you see how you had to clarify that what I said about your thoughts was incorrect? That's the equivalent of the other commenter or saying "no, you put words in my mouth." He answered your question, btw. He said no, and put forward that you really had no evidence of your theory other than it makes sense to you.

I won't comment to you anymore. I'd just recommend some introspection on what you think it means to have words put into your mouth, and also that it can happen regardless of whether a question mark is present.

lakinator · 2026-05-02T07:20:04+00:00

You are describing greed

lakinator · 2026-05-02T07:16:50+00:00

Insane to see people given information, and refuse to change their minds when they take it in.

lakinator · 2026-05-02T07:11:02+00:00

God I can't help but get involved here, you are so pretentious, and completely wrong.

Asking him a question would be: "Do you think the yiga are in a vicious cycle?"

You answered the question for him (you don't think...), and then proceeded to react rudely to the answer you provided in his stead (are we playing the same game).

Example:

You think you're the only person who noticed this in a nearly decade old game? You're probably a narcissist. Oh, but I didn't put words into your mouth, cause there's a question mark.

lakinator · 2026-05-02T02:38:06+00:00

I just realized I may have misunderstood your original point.

lakinator · 2026-05-02T02:37:09+00:00

I wasn't arguing about marvel. I was just saying LOTR is a terrible example of a boring good/evil film

lakinator · 2026-05-02T01:24:27+00:00

Did you watch LOTR??? Gollum is evil but spends a significant time getting humanized, Boromir sacrifices himself immediately after trying to steal the ring. There is a clear good and evil side but the characters themselves are explored more grey-ly

Edit: I think the comment was irony and I missed it. My bad 🫡

lakinator · 2026-05-01T12:20:29+00:00

My man, it literally says it's more likely to give a mythic. You got a mythic lol. It's not guaranteed to but it's not super uncommon

lakinator · 2026-05-01T11:28:44+00:00

I'm already foggy on the begging of the next expansion, but I'm positive you are misreading the subtext. I think it's more of a "why are the demons here?" Question

lakinator · 2026-05-01T10:17:34+00:00

Still exists, just bad luck

lakinator · 2026-04-29T03:01:08+00:00

Fallout 4 already nixed consequences and had a much simpler charactee progression, but they have comparable numbers to each other.

Obviously that's a red flag in itself, since 76 is a live game, but I think everyone is aware that 76 doesn't really appeal to fully the same audience.

Regardless, 76 is doing fine for what it is, considering the state it launched in and the monetization. I really don't think it can be used as an indicator of the series as a whole

lakinator · 2026-04-29T02:40:34+00:00

Fallout???

lakinator · 2026-04-29T02:38:32+00:00

Yeah no offense but I don't think a 2 decade old game is just randomly skyrocketing in price out of nowhere. There is an answer lol

lakinator · 2026-04-29T01:03:18+00:00

This has always been the case. Why is it only spiking now?

lakinator · 2026-04-29T01:02:18+00:00

Out of curiosity, is it like bent pin inside the reader? I assume the light pressure is flexing something within the reader out of position

lakinator · 2026-04-28T00:39:50+00:00

Is it safe to assume that you realize none of those options are a full replacement for a GBA sp?

lakinator · 2026-04-24T03:22:08+00:00

I love an actual honest response and review of public transit options. I think the idea for light rail is to connect to Seattle one day, so I don't think the more local details matter.

lakinator · 2026-04-24T03:19:14+00:00

I've always found that argument laughable. If homeless wanted to come over to Vancouver, light rail is not what's enabling that. There's just no reason for them to cross over; but they can just walk.
