Hello everybody, guess who started over and is once again streaming Skyward Sword (This time HD)?

Yup. You're still stuck with me!! ^^

I've had a hard time with a few things in real life, I know there's always something. However I've tried to be consistent with these streams.

I am again using restream.io to be able to do multiple streaming. In this case Zelda Cavern's youtube channel and my twich.tv channel.

I'm trying to keep these streams between 1 and 2 hours top, so they are easier to digest.

So far we got:

Part 3:

GOING LIVE IN FIVE:

Zelda Cavern

The Youtube arm of a Legend of Zelda fansite, called Zelda Cavern. We are trying to build and maintain active content for Zelda and other official Nintendo…

Hahaha. Fair enough. Sure. You let me know.

Hey if I send you money will you buy me an Australian copy of Skyward Sword?

Not sure I can get you the preorder bonus, but if you'd like just the copy, could do that.

Is the cover any different?

I was wondering what were the preorder bonus you guys saw around for Skyward Sword HD.

It feels like unlike the 25th anniversary, there wasn't much of a fanfare for it. It does seem like some stores had exclusive bonus if you pre-ordered.

Maybe other areas had better things going on... What did you see?

I didn't pre-order, so by the time I had money and a chance to grab it, I honestly thought I'd find none. To my surprise, they actually had some pre-order leftovers so I got the keychain too!

I am pretty much just starting my file and I've heard about some changes in the fame. So I thought it'd be an interesting topic to discuss.

Are there any changes the HD remaster did that you would have preferred they left alone? XD

Since Nintendo has now brought us the possibility to choose. What style of playing do you guys favor?

I find interesting trying the button layout, but I am sure some of you probably rather keep it as close to the original as possible.

Well your wish came true Kaynil

Yaay! It is good seeing the texture actually show the depth properly, and some sharp features.

That said, I think now Nintendo has no excuse to bring forth the Twilight Princess and Windwaker HD, so hopefully, those will be next too!

I am not sure how it makes me feel but I am sure it is a lot of fuel for theories.

I am glad that it is more than just a teaser and seems to simulate in-game gameplay. I am happy to see it is not just an expansion on Breath of the Wild, but also seems to carry its own mechanics, or at least, some tweaks to the ones we saw before.

They give us a year, next year, and while it is disappointing not having it near the holiday season, I think it is probably for the best they don't give us a concrete date and let themselves have all that is left of this year and as many quarters as they need from the next one.

Something I enjoying seeing was the bigger monsters and interesting combinations. In particular, I was fascinated with the Bokoblin tribe having what looked like a symbiotic relationship with another enemy from the first game. Their home is around the weak point of the Stone Talus, while the size of this one helps keep their base away from reach and mobile.

Floating Castle is such a Ganondorf thing to do, haha. Hard to not think he'd be related to the sealed corpse with everything we've theorized so far, haha.

I am just tired of having 3 consoles hooked up just to get to play what I want.

It occurs to me that, save for Link's Awakening, you probably don't need to have the switch hooked up for Zelda needs right now and that's a sad thought.

I still do not think I will buy Age of Calamity.

I want a Zelda game, not a dynasty warriors.

Fair enough. I was posting a doubt rather than praising the game but I'll probably be creating more threads on it as I play it.

Honestly, I hadn't try Dynasty warriors, but I've enjoyed the mechanics of the first game to buy this one. I think if you don't like the gameplay is silly to get it, since it is pretty much just Dynasty with Zelda skin and texture.

Now if you mean that more that even though you're fine with Dynasty Warriors but Nintendo needs to bring actual Zelda games, yeah, definitely agree with that. Juice it. More Zelda in more consoles is a good thing.

I want to hear more on the actual sequel to Breath of the Wild.

As an update, they eventually got back to me on twitter and opened a case for me. They were pretty nice about it and severed my ties with the other account when I said I was fine losing everything gained on it. So now I got the right accounts too! :D

Also, that Network mode from Scott Pilgrim game, seems to be for rewards. You don't need to link to play the game online with others which us a huge relief.

Anyone been going back and playing through this again lately?

I haven't yet, I'm still playing Age of Calamity. Going slow with that one, but this one is on my list to to do a hundo play this year. I really like Link's awakening ever since gameboy days.

Just an update, me and my son still play the Wii U because Nintendo has yet to release Wind Waker or Twilight Princess on the Switch.

Some years ago, I'd think those games were coming but if they don't say anything in February, I doubt we will have them.

I didn't like the limited editions and yet, I know that if they offer me those games for the switch, even limites editions I'll go buy them. I'm part of the problem.

We still got the Wii U connected and it'll be for a while, even if I don't use it as much, all the Zelda games HD and virtual shop you can play there plus Skyward Sword through its wii player makes it pretty good for Zelda fans.

Every time you complete a mission, you will receive weapons as rewards. Some will have "seals" which can be common or uncommon attributes. There seems to be three levels of strength normal, +, ++.

Then you can use weapons to feed into the main one of your choice through fusion. I tried to level up a weapon with the high re-sell seal. Still same price. So I am now wondering if it is even worth it to level those up ir just sell them as soon as you earn them.

Ah, well. It seems I made a mistake some time ago. I could swear I had linked my Kaynil Nintendo account to Ubisoft back on the WiiU. Then again on the switch while playing Just Dance 18. Then, I think a year ago, I ended up linking my secondary account. I think it was when I was setting my mobile as a possible controller where I ended using the wrong account.

Now, even if I unlinked it, Ubisoft is keeping the record in such a manner I can only link back to it and no other switch account.

I suppose they do that to avoid fraud and re-sell if accounts or something. I really made a big mistake linking it.

It'sjust a bummer because I bought Scott Pilgrim vs the World, and there's a mode called network and now I am afraid I can't play multiplayer online with my primary account.

I'm even considering deleting it and start over as a last resort. For now I used twitter to DM their support account.

But yeah, if you link, just make sure you got the right one, as you won't be able to change your mind.

I'm thinking that is too late to still be awake and that it probably counts as self-sabotage when I know that I work tomorrow.

To be completely honest, I didn't know that post publishing depression was a thing until I read your entry. Then I read some and thought some more and I think it makes sense, even though the reasons for it can vary from person to person. It is good that at least now you kind of know to expect it and trying to deal with it without letting you be paralyzed by it.

Hopefully, for the next book, you'll be able to do that and let go through some parts of the process.

I know I am quite late with it but still, congratulations for having published that book. I think it is really cool. Is your target audience seasoned Role Players or just anyone can enjoy reading about these monsters you came up with? I think it is really awesome that you are using something that you have had an inclination, based on what you wrote about the age you were already doodling monsters to fuel a book out of it and share with world some of them.
