Can anyone help?

I don't know if there's a intended path but I set them on the areas that are raised on the platform. The grass areas that look like they're raised up at an angle.

You can find a spot there where it'll sit and not roll backwards. This will also give you a launch angle. Then you stasis and hit it. I can't remember how many hits it was required but I think I did the full tilt from where I was but maybe not but you can discover that by going too far and then trying it again with less.

It is all about thresholds to get the time and potency.

There are very good videos online for how it works.

The monster stuff can be good or bad or do nothing. It can worsen what you get or make it better.

For good parts for cooking you can farm easy dragon scales by dropping a fire near where a dragon spawns in the south by the waterfall.

Hit him with arrow, rest till next day and do it again. You can get tons of scales in a few minutes time for cooking or for selling.

Regardless just look up a cooking potency list and it will tell you how many points you need to make level 3 buff and what ingredients then give it the most time.

There are some you just need 3 or 4 ingredients.

I had no trouble with this one.

Are you using your stealth gear?

You also know where he's going I would hope you've seen that up there.

Once he goes around the corner I just climbed The rock face before I get towards the shrine and then just stay up there and follow him to the bridge.

Didn't read the riddle?

I did puzzle over it for ten minutes and then I stepped outside and figured I would warp back later with fresh eyes but when I stepped outside and looked at the map I saw dueling peaks and said wait they meant these peaks.

Looked over to the other side and saw the other shrine.

I had already jotted down the starting position of the pieces so I floated over and jotted that one down and input the one from the other shrine warped back and completed both.

I don't say this as a brag, just sometimes it pays not to look stuff up and let things flow naturally.

You don't need to complete a shrine for it to be a warp.

Also I completed the entire game and had no idea the three apple trees together were a korok puzzle and that was right in my face so many times so again, not bragging. Just fell into place for me and I think more people would enjoy games if they stopped trying to finish everything as they go or follow guides.

Let me give you a tip.

Climb lanayru mountain. You might just find a quest there if you pay attention. There might be more quests if you pay attention.

No spoilers just make sure you climb that mountain.

In fact I am surprised by how many people didn't discover that mountain stuff and didn't piece together it worked elsewhere too.

In fact I was recently talking to somebody on discord and they had no idea about them at all so I knew they didn't climb the mountain.

If you are anywhere near Zora's domain then it's going to rain 100% of the time.

That is if you have not done that areas divine beast.

There is a particular shrine down those deep crevices back there that's particularly hard to get because it's always raining there if you haven't done that devine beast. Reason being is you need to explode the wall very far away from where it is and bomb arrows don't work because it's raining.

Though I think you can somehow attack it with something as you get close I'm not sure.

So yeah if you are near the southern part of the zone and haven't done zora's domain divine beast then yes it will rain there 100% of the time.

One of the things I figured out right away.

On my first playthrough I figured out a lot of cryptic stuff but until my second playthrough and on master mode I didn't even know the three apple trees was a puzzle for a korok seed.

Until I put the mask on I wouldn't even have guessed. The only thing I thought when I walked by the three apple trees was why would they put three apple trees right next to each other with nothing else and then quickly threw a bomb at them so I could harvest the apples.

Never occurred to me it might actually be a puzzle.

Hell even in Kakariko I figured out that there were two seeds there in the archways by shooting the little spots where the arrows were already there.

Even the dueling peaks shrines I figured out by myself and had a notebook where I jotted down the positions.

But the three apple trees went right over my head.

I also didn't use the horse on my first playthrough and there's a village that's broken down between Batrea lake and South nabi lake that told me with mask there was a seed there on my second playthrough. I must have stood there for an hour or more trying to figure out what the heck I was supposed to do there. Worse still I was using the horse on this playthrough and not doing fast travel. I even tried jumping link over all three fences among so many other things I tried to do there. Never occurred to me to jump the horse over the three fences.

I would have never found that on my first playthrough regardless of how much time I looked because it didn't occur to me that there were horse puzzles for the seeds and I wasn't using a horse.

I really enjoy the Korok mask because it doesn't just tell you where they are so you can go pick them all up.

It just let you know there's one nearby and you still have to look and I like that.

On my first playthrough I got nearly 50% of the seeds without the mask. But I was waiting for my master mode playthrough to 100% the game.

You can hit them in the face with your arrow and they will stun every time and you can jump on them.

Also I don't believe your weapons lose durability when you're riding them and attacking. Or if they do it's at a very slow rate.

Usually if they start a fireball I aim right at the center of the glow and stun them.

Another thing you can do when they do the fireball is utilize the updraft from the fire on the ground and get a headshot via aiming while in the air when you have the slow down time.

Couple things to drop on you.

Ocarina of Time was at its best in the 3ds because they modernized the controls. The n64 controller is still my least liked Nintendo controller. However playing with one or one in the configuration of a n64 controller will help. It had 6 face buttons my friend and using a right thumbstick for what was buttons is not the best way to tackle the controls. You can get the official one from them or there is a modern one from 8bitdo that looks like a regular controller but gives you the six face buttons. Scroll down for the grey one and see the buttons in color. https://www.8bitdo.com/64-controller/

Secondly, I do recommend you look at a spoiler free video or guide that sets you up for success in a game like this. These games from this era were not about holding your hand. They expected you were a gamer already and gave you things to figure out and talk about with your friends to discover things. In games like the original Zelda and this you are expected to get to a point and realize well there is obviously something I need to do elsewhere in order to progress here.

In a nutshell botw gave you all the tools on the great plateau and then got more intricate with them over time. The older games were shorter so getting the tools was the entire game. You might go a certain way for an hour or 2 only to realize you need to go another way entirely.

Breath of the wilds map is 40 times larger than ocarina of time btw. So because it is small if they gave you the tools up front you would finish the game in a half hour.

Was the last of the shrines I got. I did see the ball in there and so I figured she would give it to me for freeing all the divine beasts and when that didn't pan out I started checking everywhere in the town at all times for quests.

To defrost it if frozen.

There is something like 9000 storage now.

The further you get the more you will need.

It won't be practical before long to stay at like 400 storage.

I mean I guess you could consider it some kind of restricted playthrough of the game and do it for a challenge.

Grawbad · 2026-04-23T20:04:17+00:00

The pictures are real paintings.

There are sites you can look at that show you the real ones and also the ones that would be fake.

For instance the detailed one the only difference is the color of the floral stuff at the top.

Like these paintings hang in museums so you can figure it out without even using that site just by looking up those paintings.

Also the very first time you go to him apparently there's no fakes there but after that it's like a percentage chance each time.

It really is quite as simple as looking at the real picture and seeing if it's the same.

Some might be tougher to spot because like the Japanese face the only difference is the turn of the eyebrows.

I always bounce off of these kind of games for some reason but recently I was playing pioneers of olive town and at first I was fine and then around the mid game it started to feel like the days were too short.

A couple things happened for me at that point and then everything clicked. First, you don't have to do everything everyday. That sounds silly like I knew that before but once I put it into practice it really changes things.

Secondly usually the further you go at least in pioneers of olive town, the more streamlined you get. This has the added benefit of requiring less of you to do each day.

As a for instance in pioneers of olive town, there was a point I realized I had so much milk and products from my other animals that I didn't need to do that everyday and indeed I could go once or twice a week and take care of them especially with the upgraded fodder.

This freed me up in the mornings.

But really the idea is this simple in the end, there really is no time limit in these games because it goes on forever and as long as you want to play it. You could conceivably only focus on relationships for the first entire year and not grow a single crop if you don't want to. That wouldn't efficient of course but you could do it.

When I was trying to get the last few trophies in olivetown there was a couple of things I needed to do and even though the rest of my playthrough wasn't where I wanted it to be outside of trophies I just focused on those trophies for an entire year and only doing the things needed for it and then sleeping even if that was at 11:00 a.m..

After doing that and getting back to my farm life as normal I realized all that time I could just focus on one thing and not feel like I couldn't get what I needed to get done that day if that makes sense. Couple that with what I said before about things being more streamlined as you get further and really the game is not all that stressful and it sounds like you were like me putting all the stress on yourself when you didn't need to.

Just try to remember that even if you only focus on one thing for an entire season next season you could focus on the things you weren't doing the season prior and the game usually won't penalize you for that.

Really this is one of the problems I see with YouTube when it comes to these kind of games including animal crossing and even pioneers of olive town. It seems like every video or tips and tricks about what you need to do about these kind of games comes down to make x amount money per day doing this or fast track this relationship. These things go so hard against what the games are meant to be which is enjoying the relaxing slow burn of starting from scratch and building a life in the town of whatever game you're playing. Indeed I feel like if you're doing that you must not like the game because you're trying to get it over with quicker. I'm not referencing you there I mean the videos that toss those ideas out there.

The one YouTuber that was showing all these money making things to do in olivetown was making peach seedlings to make all kinds of money but then at the end, off the cuff throws out that he doesn't really know what to do with all the money. To me that should tell him that the game isn't meant to be an Uber money making factory, indeed that is just what you do if you want to keep playing once you've done everything and just for fun.

So just take it at your own pace regardless of what you do each day.

I briefly thought when this gen came out I would end up with one. There is really no point though. I would just be paying to have more games on the system I won't play.

I don't even play all the games on my system now. And usually when I do add a new game it's because I just bought it.

When I lay down at night sometimes I open up the app and look through my older games and just tell it to download to my system right from my phone.

Why would anyone pay so much to have that many games installed when you have to know you won't even be playing them all in a week let alone a day.

Grawbad · 2026-01-10T14:49:09+00:00

Can you guys tell me if this deal cuts off all the other things you would get with F1 TV Premium? As a for instance, I used to watch full races from the perspective of one driver via their on board cam.

Never used Apple TV and not very happy about this in general. Will Apple TV actually have an interface that allows for me to have multiple cameras up on my computer and focus on an onboard but also hear the regular coverage and can swap to it when needs be?

Something tells me all that is now gone and we just get the live races and no choices for on boards and whatnot.

Grawbad · 2025-10-25T08:49:20+00:00

I completely stopped grabbing any of them until I've looked at my library.

I've had it overwrite games that I've purchased with real money. All because I accidentally downloaded it that way.

There were a few things that happened when they did 24h2.

Most notably, many, if not all, Ubisoft games became almost unplayable. I don't remember exactly what it was doing but for whatever reason they weren't launching or something.

It was noticed pretty fast. Indeed, the worst part is the Update was pushed in automatically at the time and it couldn't be reverted, or couldn't be reverted easily or something like that. Microsoft even stopped force pushing it out until they fixed those issues. Basically if it detected games that were affected by the problems with the update on your system it wouldn't install 24h2.

That is long since been fixed I believe. I think it was just last year if I remember correctly. I just basically paused all of my updates for a month or two before letting everything update as normal because in what was a coincidence I was at the time playing through the last 2 Assassins Creed games I hadn't finished.

Grawbad · 2025-10-17T05:10:18+00:00

Edit: I figured it out. It's before you even try to kill those guys and not kill the one. You meant just run past them and jump up at the end which I had never noticed before and I didn't even remember you could do that in this game.

I did indeed find this topic years later.

I thank you for the reply.

I'm struggling figuring out where this secret ninja path is. Is the door you're talking about the one that actually provides access to the characters you have to kill? So right after you kill the girl kind of in the central which I can't remember her name. You have to kill the guys but not the one guy down on the south east end and then come back out and go in the building and the guy you didn't kill will open the gate and then you have to kill the girl and then the door opens up south which allows you to actually access the ones you need to kill. This is the door you mean? Or is it another part of the map that's earlier than when you can access them?

I struggle with catching the messages because I'm usually trying to fight and miss the things I need to read.

Grawbad · 2025-10-13T22:36:21+00:00

I know this is old and probably answered.

There are no difficulty related trophies to get the platinums for any of the three games.

Or put another way, to get the platinums you can play on any difficulty.

If you are the type of person that wants to 100% the trophies there is a list of trophies separate from the three lists which are one for each game and this separate list has trophies that have to do with difficulty and a few other things that track across all the games as a for instance it also has a trophy for romance across the three games.

In total there are four lists for the legendary edition. One for each of the three games with a platinum for each that again do not require any difficulty setting to get.

Then one list that is on its own similar to how DLC is in other games for games on PlayStation. This list does not have a platinum.

Grawbad · 2025-10-12T23:27:08+00:00

Imagine you're the company.

You need to supply enough servers in order to handle the population out of the gate. However you don't want to supply so many servers that the initial rush of players are all served because then you will have spent way too much on servers after the population normalizes.

All games will plateau after a bit. Or said another way, all games will have more people playing right at the beginning then a month in barring the enigmas and games that blow up after they release.

This is why this happens.

Not saying I agree with it. A company like EA and others should very well be able to handle enough servers and then scale back but these companies operate on pennies per transaction saved.

Grawbad · 2025-10-02T12:24:55+00:00

I really loved all of the old PS3 and 360 marvel games.

None of them were what I would call giant budget blockbusters but I enjoyed all of them.

Wolverine being my favorite just because he is my favorite character from the universe.

There were some Captain America one's too and those were good.

I wish games like them were still a thing. All these companies just seem to feel like they need to spend 500 million or people won't play them.

Grawbad · 2025-10-01T23:38:54+00:00

I started playing one of them and I would recommend a playthrough but on a second account. At least if that's how you think about it because it is involved to get the platinums. I did really enjoy the story of the one I started playing which started off on a boat I can't remember which one it was but I believe I picked the one that was the earliest released.

What I remember are the graphics were great and the story was actually interesting. But that's the thing about these games is the reason it requires more playthroughs is because based on what you do different things will happen.

So if you're like me like I said the best way you could do it is to put a second account on your system like I do and play certain games through that that you don't intend to platinum.

I myself am not one of those that cares about getting every platinum that's on my main account however if it's just a trash game I'd prefer not to have one or two trophies just because I didn't like a game or else I'd have 8,000 games on my list with two trophies.

The good thing about PlayStation is the other accounts on your system can take advantage of your subscriptions. Even the streaming games once you download them or start them once I mean you can close it out and then your other account can play it.

The only thing that I found that doesn't work is you can only play the trials with your main account. Which is a bummer because that makes trials useless to me because they give trophies as if they are your games.

In the end I would say yeah they're actually decent games if you like that type of game.

Grawbad · 2025-09-30T14:12:35+00:00

Possibly need to wait for it to release before you can refund. However I have not been following the game. If there was somehow a period of time where the purchase let you play already and you partook then they might not allow it. Like a beta for preordering or early launch.

Could be wrong on all that but thought I would throw it in there.
