I was in an area where I had to cross water and I kept drowning from running out of stamina...I thought I could climb the pole in the water and kept trying and dying...eventually a hint came up on the right side of the screen that said something along the lines of I may not be ready for this area yet

game is way deeper than I expected...I didn’t think they’d be so many parts to it...the only thing that “hurts” it imo is it’s a clone of so many different games that nothing feels new or “wows” me but it is a cool game I can pick up, relax and play for an hour and two
I'm guessing you haven't been collecting blue mushrooms cause that is your stamina replenishment and from what I remember, that's the first one you get access to. The bolded is exactly what I was saying when I played the demo. It doesn't try to innovate or blow you away, it just provides a fun experience.

at the time I hadn’t...I had wandered into that area when I’d literally started the game...only thing I had was the brother’s sword

ended up switching to a male character...couldn’t buy into the female voice or her being on that ship with them during wartime...plus it’s possible I’m a little sexist...my dude looks like the prince of persia with locks

game got fun immediately once I got the axe and wings...I tried to explore thinking it was like BOTW white you can pretty much go/do whatever as long as you use some ingenuity but with this game you more so need to do certain things first and maybe can do more exploration once you obtain certain items...it’s fun so far tho


Not sure how far you are but keep an eye out for the wraith lairs. If you just want to do some exploring you'll have to take those out when you hit a new area so you can explore it freely.

Game is hella average on the switch. This shyt ain’t touching BOTW no way.

I have it for the PS5...the gameplay feels kinda hollow/soulless...the BOTW ripoff is just too blatant except the puzzles are less challenging to add insult to injury...I feel like I’m just going thru the motions...I’m playing with the hope the game will open up a bit more as I acquire more stuff...I just got the full wings and am still talking to hermes...the banter/dialogue continue to be surprisingly funny and represents the only original “personality” this game has

this game didn’t seem to be marketed very well.

I actually saw the game from an ad and was like :lupe:

That was like a week after it released and while I was curious I finally watched some gameplay footage (no commentary) then some reviews and thought it was too much like botw.

Like if botw came out on PlayStation as an exclusive and switch got this.....

Ima give it a shot. Gamefly.

I paid $40 for it but ya if folks can wait for it to hit $20 then imo that’s a fair price for it...nikkas was lunching selling this shyt for $60

It should be here in a couple from gamefly.

If I see it for $20 that's a cop. But if I get to play through it for $1 that's cool too.

Lol I feel the exact same way about BotW except the game never felt fun to me. Going to try it again to see if I can figure out why I seem to be playing a completely different game.

game is weird...I don’t dislike it but things don’t “unfold” at a reasonable pace as has been the case with open world games I enjoyed (BOTW, RDR2, GoT, CP2077)...idk maybe it’s the map and compass design that makes it seem overwhelming (and not in a good way) out the gate...I’m still enjoying some aspects of it tho
