if you like using the things you build but get tired of building them, make sure to go to the great abandoned central mine and follow that side-quest.

BotW's abilities feel lame in comparison to what TotK brought, to me. the only drawback is not having revali's gale.


What side quest is that? I've discovered all the mines, forge constructs and schema stones in the Depths but haven't found any side quests for the central mine? I know they keep talking about following the statues but a mine is kinda hard to miss, why bother.

The freeze ability and time stop increase momentum was fun in BotW. Recall is too OP imo, way to easy to get around all kinds of puzzles with recall, also makes a lot of combat trivial. (But good to get rid of those annoying octoroks) Ascend is lame, just an excuse for disabling climbing in certain places. Ultra-hand needs a UI overhaul, often I can't even see what I'm trying to place where or accidentally walk off a ledge or cliff trying to fit something. Same for Fuse.

there's the forgotten temple that shows you the order of how all the memories are supposed to go and where they all are on the map, you should head there and take a pic of it for reference. the memory story telling mechanic coming back is lame but, the memories themselves are actually way better than the BotW ones i think.

something that i think is a minus on the game is indeed how sporadic it is. the quest i'm referring to above is only if you manage to find impa on a random field and then follow her to the forgotten temple. i didn't even realize that was a thing until i started noticing my memories were out of order and looked for a way to watch them in order.

the gerudo and definitely the rito dungeons are the best in the game and for sure worth doing. the zora temple is the worst in my opinion but, i thought the fire temple was pretty fun so... maybe you'll like it.

The memories are in order in the compendium, but I still find them in a random order while exploring. I ran into Impa and she told about the Forgotten Temple. (Maybe that triggered numbering them in the compendium as the first one I found didn't have a number at the time, now it does) I guess the temple is in the same place as in BotW? If so I won't get to it for quite a while, going clock wise around the map from Death Mountain this time. I just got to Kariko village but haven't finished up the Zora domain quite yet. I ran into it on the way back to Lookout from coming back out the Depths near Kariko village.

Zora temple was my next to go to, looking forward to it even more now :p Anyway granny needs milk and hylian rice to take her medicine, got to get the important things sorted first haha.

the great central mine is right by the great plateau. (great central mine/great plateau; they kind of fit together haha.) if you started following the yiga clan side-quests then you should've ran into it at some point. it all leads to there. idk how much info i can give without spoiling it but, i'd just head for the great plateau and then go into the closest chasm. it's a super useful ability, especially for you guys that don't like building so i highly recommend it!

ascend is kind of lame but i think they just didn't utilize it well enough. there should've been more areas you could ascend thru that would take you to more "secret" parts of the map. that's kind of what i thought they were gonna do based off the trailers. i think the freeze ability and time stop are kind of unnecessary with ultra-hand and being able to build things as well as recall. both of those are improvements to me.

well yes, if you are going in a strict order around the map then you will find them out of order haha. the forgotten temple is in the canyon by the hebra frontier to the northwest of hyrule castle. i'd assume that's the same spot as BotW but i can't remember.

honestly i think it'd be more fun if you didn't guardrail yourself into playing the map clockwise. the game wants you to go to disparate parts of the map for some quests so things will continue to be weird if you do that. you do you, though! everyone plays differently and i think that's the whole point!

but yeah, zora temple is lame. truly the best boss fight is the rito one and the gerudo is the best dungeon to me.
