There’s a definite limit to how much you can carry. Gear inventory can be expanded using Korok seeds, while food inventory is three pages. Not sure how big material inventory is; I’m 6 pages in and haven’t hit a limit yet.
About weight… There is no weight limit per se, but Link does run, climb, and swim faster if you don’t have any weapons equipped… He also swims and climbs faster naked, unless you have the requisite gear that makes those actions faster.
And, of course, certain weapons have different attack speeds and combos…
[details=Spoiler]Found the white horse… Had no idea it was so close to the stable where the old guy mentions it, plus the memory…
Now I’m off Guardian hunting, so I can get all the Ancient gear.[/details]
Oh there’s a camp of 6 enemies up ahead? Lemme go ahead and freeze 'em all in one attack and then shatter them to pieces with their own clubs
Blizzard swords/spears are pretty good too, only enemies it doesn’t really work against are the Lynels and the Guardian type enemies (I think).
EDIT: Well, the ice weapons work on the basic ones you find in the trials at least.
Also took out my first mobile Guardian. Shot it in the eye with a shock arrow to get it to stay still, cut off all of its arms with a Guardian Sword, then stood right in front of it and parried its laser back at its face while it sat there helplessly.
Screw the Lynels, Guardians are the most satisfying enemies to beat down. Though I suddenly have this weird craving for a Samurai Jack game…
Those are pretty fun. Not necessarily the toughest enemy but it’s funny some of the things it does to fight you
Also, seems that the Zora that trades 10 luminous stones for one Diamond is kind of a rip-off, at least as far as rupees are concerned; 10 luminous stones = 700 rupees, compared to 500 rupees for one Diamond. It’s only really useful if you want a Diamond as part of repairing the Lightscale Trident.
Dude ripped it’s own arm off to club me with… I lol’d, then threw it’s eye into a nearby campfire.
Also lol’d at the Guardian Stalker that incinerated two Chuchu and a Stalkoblin, only to get it’s laser parried right back through all the corpses into its face.
I still think Lynels are more fun due to the Mexican standoffs you can get into… “We doin’ this or not, brah?”
This is good to know. I need one of their weapons for a side quest.
Finished the game just now. My one question about Zelda was answered…
Spoiler
I was wondering if she was old if she had been keeping Ganon sealed for 100 years. I’m a bit disappointed it wasn’t the case. Would’ve been interesting, at least.
Now I’m going to complete the remaining shrines and sidequests. Also want to find that last memory. Seems pretty hard to find if it’s within Hyrule Castle.
I’m pretty hooked on this game. I just got a house which meant to do a while ago, but just…kept…exploring…
Speaking of exploring I’m looking for the blue flame for the
Spoiler
lab technician in Akkla village
any leads onto this. I also didn’t know you could equip weapons to help you with certain parts. I need to head back to the volcano and equipe the frost sword I have. I accidently equipped the fire sword in this one snow region up north and saw that it warmed me. I might have read about it here though?
IIRC there is a nearby mountain/hill that that has the blue flame on it. It has lamps you can light and it also has moblins and bokoblins that are around that will probably mess with your trek.
I’ve really started looking forward to Blood Moons now. I marked key enemy camp sites/Lynel locations on my map so every time it happens and I want to stock up on my favorite weapon type, I charge over there. Found a camp full of Lizalfos that gives me at least 3 of the Tri-forked Boomerangs, my favorite weapon in the game, and they often come with either a critical hit bonus or + durability (the latter is good 'cause that particular weapon is annoyingly flimsy for how much I love it).
…I just wish I had room for those and all the other cool stuff I keep finding…I hate having to leave weapons behind. :sad:
Makes me really appreciate the weapon durability system in this game. Makes me want to use every single item I find, right down to the Lizalfos arms or a random Soup Ladle.
Nope, the durability system sucks because I’m an uncreative scrub who can’t think outside the box and only wants to mash on the sword button… I don’t know how to actually fight, so I can’t beat anyone with a decent weapon… And I haven’t left the plateau, so the only weapons I have are shitty Boko bats and wooden bows that break after 10 uses that I burn through fast because I like rolling my face over the sword button like its a regular Zelda game…
Even though I’ve been complaining about combat being an afterthought in every single game since Zelda II…
