It has a long cool down, and we don't know if you can use it directly on enemies

Yeah I mean more for environmental traps

 

[Insaniac]

been playing so much dark souls, i expected those arrows to hit the corner of the wall lol

 

[MisterGrey3000]

They're definitely impressing me with the level design for the shrines.
Hopefully the multiple solutions to puzzles that they give you will never feel super generalized and simplistic like what was found in ALBW.

 

[mrmickfran]

Has Nintendo archived the footage of the Zelda demo yet?

 

[jackal27]

It's really starting to trouble me how similar all these dungeons look...

This really is becoming Zelder Scrolls huh?

 

[Kinsei]

I'm guessing the Master Sword or perhaps the entire Hero's gear set is obtained by collecting the spirit orbs.

I'm thinking it might be the mirror shield. An item that can reflect the beams of a guardian seems like it would be a great reward for someone that takes the time to find and beat every shrine.

These aren't dungeons though.

 

[Creamium]

Yeah these shrines are definitely getting more complex. If there are really are 100+... wow.

No clue but if you watch on youtube you can scrub back hours.

 

[MouldyK]

Well with that 0.5s screen flash I guess Off-TV is confirmed now

Aonuma said that players using the GamePad can use that controller’s screen to move the game’s display to the GamePad screen, but that screen doesn’t seem to do much else.

Confirmed here.

 

[OricWindstar]

The fact that there are over 100 of these is crazy.

 

[Ricker]

This is just a Shrine,imagine the Dungeons...

 

[Kansoku]

guys did you know that on the first time you collect an item a description will pop up but after that they wont appear anymore???!!!

 

[Captain Smoker]

Those mini dungeons are great.

 

[NimbusD]

I mean if there's 4 dungeons with a world this large, they must be pretty fucking large/difficult dungeons. Or take multiple times entering to complete or something. Doesn't make sense.

1 hour of playing till you get to the first dungeon they've said.

then what? tops you play like 3-4 hours in between dungeons? Maybe a bit more if you're doing side quests and exploring. With how big the game is 17 hours (4 hours in between, 1 hour up top, 1 hour per dungeon) doesn't sound right.

I dunno I'm being liek super conservative with times, but even if you beef up that number, doesnt sound right unless the dungeons are being done in a way that we're not used to.

 

[Brinbe]

These further-along Shrines are spectacular.

 

[EndlessSky]

Not going to happen. I wish. They could just have a 1 hour timer, and 2 uses before it deletes itself, but nope.

Based from all the talk of the demo, more than likely the area in the demo is not cut off from the rest of them game. Nintendo is probably scared someone will find a way to explore the rest of the game.

 

[ag-my001]

Is this going to be a giant pinball machine?

 

[Luigi87]

lmao at accidentally sending the boulder flying.

 

[Altazor]

man, this shrine is amazing.

 

[Omnicent]

this looks fun, and there are 100+ of these (of varying size/complexity). I'm hyped

 

[jackal27]

Physics based puzzles are my own personal hell.

 

[Aselith]

It's really starting to trouble me how similar all these dungeons look...

It could be that the dungeons are themed based on area. they are just showing off one area of the map, right? (I can't watch the stream)

 

[GODDAMN-ONI]

apparently they are shrines but I agree 100%

 

[Pandy]

I'm calling it now. Gyro controls for the NX.

 

[Moaradin]

These shrines seem pretty cool and have a good variety of puzzles. If this is just a shrine, I'm really looking forward to the actual dungeons.

 

[Shadax the wizard]

Girl playing right now is cheesing enemies by wall cover, I hope it's a good sign and that enemies are punishing.

 

[Effect]

This shrine is big.

 

[Ensirius]

I'm calling it now. Gyro controls for the NX.

I was thinking of that watching chicko using the controller to launch that ball with the hammer.

 

[PhoenixDawn]

Wow this is a pretty long thing for a shrine that there are apparently 100+ of in the game. If the little mini dungeons are this big then I can only imagine how epic the actual dungeons must be in this game.

 

[MisterGrey3000]

This is just a Shrine,imagine the Dungeons...

Oh man, now I'm getting a little excited.

 

[TheDarkKnight774]

I'm calling it now. Gyro controls for the NX.

Yea

 

[Brinbe]

PYRO

 

[Omnicent]

ahh thats a nice touch

 

[KHlover]

After Skyward Sword I feel they are obliged to hit us over the head with this.

 

[chadboban]

Woah at that makeshift fire arrow

 

[Ashodin]

Just get fire from the nearby brazier for Fire Arrows WTF AMAZING. These little touches you've wondered "WHY CANT I JUST" they thought of that!

 

[Creamium]

These puzzles... THIS GAME

 

[jwhit28]

What do spirit orbs do? Are they a gate to real dungeons?

 

[OricWindstar]

Stasis seems like it's going to be really cool. Especially the building up of force.

 

[Mr. F]

I hope they add more...weightiness to the physics. Everything kind of ping-pongs around regardless of how big or small it is. Kind of jarring lol.

 

[Galang]

Chico is the best!!

 

[BorkBork]

That's a clever puzzle.

 

[bachikarn]

The shrine is pretty lengthy. Pretty cool.

 

[co1onel]

This shrine is huge. I hope there's a lot of them of this size. I also hope the visual style gets changed up in some of them. I was worried when I first heard about the 100+ shrines that they would be quick and pointless, but these are legit. I can't believe there's actually going to be over 100 of these.

 

[Strife91]

Aren't they showing a little too much? The stream has gone on for hours.

 

[Slowdive]

Haha Chiko is great.

 

[TheDarkKnight774]

So glad they showed this. I wandered how different the shrines could get.

Don't see why the majority of the content can't be optional. Nothing wrong with having 100 hours of stuff to do but only 20 required to reach the credits.

 

[CrazyHorse]

The art style is like a mixture of TP, SS and WW!!

GOAT

 

[ASIS]

WOW this shrine is cool as hell!
