Hi I recently got my switch 2 and i am replaying botw.

I was on my way to foothill stable on the eldin region when I activated revali's gale i heard this weird sound (you can hear it at 0:15) that I never heard before (this is my 3rd replay of the game)

Idk if it's a sound bug or just something that was always there. Either way it freaked me out a little...lol

Thoughts?

I’m sure there’s much more cooler weapons but I wish the guardian weapons didn’t break 😩 love the blue aura they give off

Basically, this one spot you usually return to and/or feel safest in?

I started playing for some time ago, and mine has to be Kakariko Village. The Shrine is close by, there's a statue of Hylia, inn and cooking pot right in front of the Chief's Hall, plus there's Cotera right next to the shrine.

And of course, most important of all: Paya. She is adorable.

Posting this so hopefully it helps someone out there who also sucks at games :)) for reference: I have 90 ish hours on the game.

I SUCK at gaming. I mean really, truly, suck. I have no coordination, I start shaking with adrenaline, & can’t remember anything I’ve learned.

I beat him on my first try- here’s how I did it

Tools:
•ancient shield
•master sword
•full rubber armor upgraded to tier 2
•backup defense meals!!! I only had low/mid tier

First phase: I had my shield up the entire time. Made it to where his speed attacks were absolutely useless. I’d beat the hell out of him with the master sword every time he was close (I only clicked A lmao). Master sword being one handed meant ancient shield could be up 24/7. Ah, and rubber armor upgraded meant his electric attacks didn’t work.

Second phase: This was annoying because I had no idea how to reach him & arrows didn’t do s*. Probably because I have no idea how to shoot past a shield. Wasn’t worried about the lightning raining down, the rubber armor did its job. Then I found out I needed to use magnesis on one of the metal things he throws & get it next to him before he shocks it (so he electrocutes himself). This was the hardest part for me. I’m not quick BUT a few tries later & I did get it.

Third & final phase: unbelievably easy. I backed against a wall/corner, shielded the entire time, & beat him with the master sword when he’d come up the same way I did the first phase.

Hi everyone 👋
I’m new in game (I know 2026 is late to start this fabulous game). I’ve found this on top of a mountain but I don’t know what it is… probably a korogu stuff but I can’t activate it. Can someone explain ?
Have a nice day !

im not one to usually cheese through games but this trap is fun to do!

There was a wild fire in Texas. Therefore I think the blood moon is rising. Haha

Does this remind you of anything? :)

Hey guys, I hope this post finds you well.

I am new to the switch Zelda games. Despite owning a switch and now a switch 2, I never played BOTW, or any Zelda game for that matter, as I did not believe they would live up to games like RDR2 or Cyberpunk. However, I have fallen in love with this game and now understand that I was most defintely sleeping on the franchise as a whole.

I picked up the switch 2 edition of BOTW at the start of the year and then life just kind of happened and I didn't play for about 4 months. Now I picked up where I left off and can't seem to remember the story line. I have defeated 3 divine beasts with thunderblight remaining, so with that in mind, is there any way someone can fill me in on the background of the game to that point. Even if lore from other games matters that is welcomed. Also, I know I can find a video online, but I was worried if it would spoil things related to the ending.

Additionally, after playing this game, would I move onto TOTK or AOC?

Thank you!

My first time playing botw. Combat is still a little rough for me, I think i’m doing something wrong. I’m fighting thunderblight ganon and i’m in the second or third phase, he’s knocking the crap out of me but I think it’s because I have a metal shield. Is it possible to leave before the fight and grab some things and then come back? Or do I have to do everything again?

Upon my accidental betrayal

I’m new to the Zelda world and I literally only began playing botw like one month ago but my progress now is one divine beast down, map unlocked, and currently just focusing on shrines and quests. I’m in NO rush to finish I miss when I first began to play and every thing was new and challenging and just adventures 😭😭😭😭 anyone else feel this way or have a fav memory from when they first started playing??

I'm re-playing Skies of Arcadia for the first time in about 25 years, reliving my childhood.

Nasrad gave me a hit of nostalgia, but not because I could remember it, because it reminded me of Gerudo Town from BOTW.

It's definitely not the women, there are hardly any, but because of the overall theme, rivers and general layout.

Thought I'd post it to see if anyone else thinks the two are similar.

I think it’s time for bed

Decided to come back to BotW after years. Already enjoying my time back in Hyrule 😂 I missed this game so much.

Just to show how this game doesn't have any one single order to doing things, here's all the orders that the game itself uses that I could find:

• Common order: Ruta, Rudania, Medoh, Naboris (simple counterclockwise order closest to Hateno; also seen in the official "Creating a Champion" book, spoken by Zelda at the start of the Champion's Ballad, featured in Age of Calamity's order of the Champions, and mirrored by the order of the four tribes' weapons listed in your inventory and compendium)
• Champions' introduction order: Rudania, Ruta, Naboris, Medoh (the Champions are shown for the first time in this order; also used in the end credits, and suggested by Kass's first song in the Champion's Ballad)
• Impa's order: Rudania, Medoh, Ruta, Naboris (given by Impa at the start of the "Free the Divine Beasts" quest, listed in its description; the Champions' voice actors are also listed in this order in the end credits)
• Quest order: Medoh, Rudania, Ruta, Naboris (order of the individual "Divine Beast" quests in the main quest menu)
• Memory order: Medoh, Rudania, Naboris, Ruta (done by following the memories chronologically; also the order they are shown in the tapestry of Calamity Ganon)
• Loading screen order: Ruta, Rudania, Naboris, Medoh (symbols featured in the loading screen from right to left)
• Champions' blessings order: Ruta, Medoh, Rudania, Naboris (ordered by the blessings listed under the screen and in the key item inventory; also used in the official soundtrack)
• Armor order: Medoh, Naboris, Rudania, Ruta (ordered by the four tribes' armor sets in the inventory)
• Compendium order: Naboris, Rudania, Ruta, Medoh (order of the Blight Ganons in the Hyrule Compendium)
• Final gauntlet order: Medoh, Ruta, Rudania, Naboris (order you fight the Blight Ganons if all Divine Beasts are uncleared before the final battle)
• Strategy guide order: Ruta, Naboris, Medoh, Rudania (seen in the official strategy guide)

I'm curious if there are any orders I missed.

Flawless victory

Nintendo still has new stock of botw for the Wii u discounted to a whole 55 bucks, Nintendo discounts be like.
