“Advanced” combat in The Legend of Zelda Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom.

Most of the time combat is a slog and it’s the least interesting part of the games. I just get strong weapons and hit the enemies with them, or shoot them from afar. I don’t think I even broke more than 5 shields per game, and barely did that slow motion avoid thing. It’s much faster to just slash and slash, stagger, slash, etc.

Hell, a lot of the devices in TotK are useless because I can just slash or shoot the enemies myself. Tried them out once in shrines and that’s it.

Also, let’s not forget the trauma and fear for someone in such a situation. That comes heavily into play.

That’s the case in many places around the world. From your “We need”, I’m assuming you’re in the USA?

They removed the exit button when starting the game with a controller! No more closing the game for nothing!

A lot of studios accepted the sale to Embracer because of the decentralized studio model. I hope they took into account the risk of a subsequent sale to a more centralized owner…

Wikipedia is your friend for quick information: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Embracer_Group

Beats Google very often, in my experience.

Best comment here. Either exec (with overconfidence or deadlines), or security violation seem most likely. Surprising that it’s for both platforms though…

Exactly what I do! I just wanted to keep my previous comment short.

Amazing. I am really happy to hear it ended up in the hands of not only a hardcore fan, but also someone who will share it with world in a book.
