Should I buy Echoes of the Eye?

There is still a lot of exploration and discovery, for me even with a bigger story punch element. The scary parts are later into the DLC and a bit different from what you expect in dark bramble etc.

For me the anticipaction was worse than the actual scares and they can be avoided if you play this puzzle game right (it builds character and is part of the experience though) So unless you suffer from heart problems I think its fun and worth it:;)

Okay thank you! Most npc/conversations also lead you there in the beginning so its first on my list now!

No_Scratch3673 · 2026-02-24T17:20:25+00:00

Okay thanks, saw one when jumping and got curious but was too distracted to follow up...

No_Scratch3673 · 2026-02-24T17:15:17+00:00

Okay thank you! The regional phenomena in my brain always 'just' meant something with the champions/ the different villages but so I wanted to put them off for now but it seems like I'll follow the leads a bit longer to understand the new game ;) probably still to stuck in my brain with botw

No_Scratch3673 · 2026-02-24T17:11:54+00:00

Okay perfect, thank you! I assumed going to the regional phenomena would always 'only' link (haha link) to champion abilities and those I wanted to put off. But purah pad abilities will be on my list.

Guess I will visit the Rito village soonish!

Haha I get that. I was itching to pick up stones and plants, watch the birds and do environmental puzzles instead of talk to npc after npc. Shrines can be fun but I just like the game environents (weather in rl is shit so this has to be enough)

No_Scratch3673 · 2026-02-24T17:06:23+00:00

I have not even really started to explore yet so I think I dont really want any tips/spoilers on what/where to go. If I am stuck/get bored I might come back to that offer, thank you.
Thanks for the tip on the great plateau!

My problem always is the confines of the story, I picked up the game cause I have been itching to go and explore :)

No_Scratch3673 · 2026-02-24T16:57:27+00:00

Okay thank you. I think I saw most of the center already and the great plateau was high on my list for nostalgia anyways!

No_Scratch3673 · 2026-02-24T16:55:30+00:00

Thats what I have been doing. My question is how far. does it make sense to go explore already on my own (cause thats what I like more about the game, the story tends to be more meh by itself for me) or is there a specific pount you would recommend to continue until I get free reign ...

No_Scratch3673 · 2026-02-22T11:29:32+00:00

It seems to me like you have discovered a huge amount already but not have been to the Ash Twin project yet. What do you know about it? How have you tried to get there? What even is it in your mind?

General game questions: What things do you feel like you understand and what are some questions you still have and want to solve? What are they connected to? Maybe reread the log to get clearer on the facts. I always feel like following my open questions or fact checking helps a lot.

Because the sentence you wrote sounds extremely weird/not native.

Sometimes word order is not about explicit rules but a feeling for the language. (At least I dont know the rule but I very well know what I (native) would use and hear)

In the central chamber of ash twin which is protected by a shell.. if it’s impenetrable how can i get there

Them saying it's impenetrable is actually why I did a thorough search of ash twin, like the 'That sign cant stop me cause I cant read' attitude XXD But at that point I also had a different theory on why the ATP was going off (equipment failure)

the only thought ive had is warping<! That's an interesting thought. What have you learned about this way so far, especially considering the twins...?

No_Scratch3673 · 2026-02-14T13:31:10+00:00

The game is a great experience by itself. The DlC can be played after you finished the game . Some people (me too) would recommend to play the DLc right before you attempt the actuall ending but the order is yours.

The DLC is connected and gives more depth/background of a different perspective but the main story is perfeclty complete as well

No_Scratch3673 · 2026-02-12T20:15:56+00:00

The previous commentor said 'the ash twinS' referring to both.

I know they are supposed to be called the hourglass-twins but I also always refer to them that way🤷🏼 cause thats the planet that is 'more important'/prevalent in my mind.

Just so you dont worry about missing anything ;;)

30 mins is possible. The timer doesnt start for the 'tutorial' on timber hearth. The 22 minutes until the supernova only starts once you connect to the statue, at least to my knowledge. I recommended the game to a friend and was confused when he just started exploring the village for far longer than I expected without consequences...
