So I finished the game a few days ago (All shrines + all cutscenes), and now I'm just running around, doing quests, taking pics. I gotta say, playing the whole time with the Pro HUD is a much more enjoyable experience. If you want to complete stuff (go here, talk to this guy, you put a pillar of light there, etc) having the map is really useful, but being lost and just choosing a random direction is how this game was meant to be played.

Yeah, I did that from the start although not with pro hud. I left unlocking towers until halfway through a zone and later until the very last so I could simply wander around without any spoilers or names on a map drawing me in any direction. I did miss important clues that way though and could not find the entrance to the lost woods for a long time, yet ran into 3 lovely Lynels hiding out behind it and a dark forest that was more fun than the lost woods itself. Finding the last few memories without any map on sight alone was also more fun.

I played the whole game without fast travel (apart from the one time it instructs you to do so on the great plateau) which also keeps the todo list feeling at bay, no running back and forth for sidequests. Those will get done when I come around again. You can travel pretty fast anyway with 3 stamina bars and speed buffs or dark link outfit at night.

I'm currently in Hyrule castle for the final battle. Already cleared the castle again (Silver Lynels in close quarters, probably harder than the boss lol), all 120 shrines completed, all memories, 353 Korok seeds found, all equipment afaik.

When I get the Switch and Zelda (yes, I will double dip), I will do my second playthrough with Pro HUD at all times. My future bus travelling to college will be the best!
