#4 – What are we going to gather as we discover? Extra Koroks?
Beneath each rock, on the backside of each lake, and on the prime of each single mountain peak, a Korok hid in Breath of the Wild. Discovering all of them and taking the seeds to Hetsu helped you improve your stock and earn one thing particular if you happen to discovered all 900, however they actually served as a reward for exploration – to provide you a motive to make Zelda wait a bit of longer than a century.
As a sequel, logically we’d count on to gather one thing related in Tears of the Kingdom. However what? We don’t know if we are able to take heed to ‘Yahaha! You discovered me!’ a number of hundred extra occasions, so what are we going to gather as a substitute? Tears of Gentle, as seen in Twilight Princess, maybe? Or, since a lot of the sport appears to happen within the sky, perhaps we’ll chase down Ooccas?
On second thought, we hope they stick to Koroks.
#5 – Will Sheikah Slate skills return in the identical type?
Within the trailers to this point, Hyperlink doesn’t seem to hold his Sheikah Slate. The overwhelming majority of Breath of the Wild’s puzzles made use of the Rune skills it housed – Magnesis, Distant Bombs, Stasis, and Cryonis.
We’ve seen Hyperlink use a Stasis-like potential since, however that might be one thing solely totally different. Of the opposite three, nothing. We’d think about bombs will make a return – even simply as an merchandise tied to arrows – however what of the others?
With how artistic Aonuma and his workforce are, we think about they’ve loads extra Rune-based puzzles hidden up the sleeves of their Hylian tunics.
#6 – When precisely does Tears of the Kingdom happen?
A lot of the design round Tears of the Kingdom pertains to the Zonai, an historic and mysterious tribe depicted solely environmentally and in merchandise descriptions in Breath of the Wild. The important thing phrase right here is historic – will Hyperlink journey again in time? It wouldn’t be the primary time the Hero of Hyrule did so.
Hyperlink and Zelda look much like their earlier BOTW look, however in addition to Zelda’s new haircut we additionally see numerous Hyperlink with longer hair and carrying considerably ancient-looking clothes. Whereas this query hasn’t been answered explicitly within the trailers, we predict there’s some temporal happening.
#7 – How modified will Hyrule actually be?
Rito-eyed followers will discover that, in most of the trailers, Hyrule appears to be like fairly related, although removed from idential. Floating islands are the obvious departure. Unusual, green-glowing markings on the bottom. The distinct lack of Sheikah towers and shrines on the horizon. Really, plainly quite a bit might need modified since Calamity Ganon was defeated and Zelda acquired a haircut.
However how a lot, actually? We haven’t gotten extra info or any clearer photographs that present an altered panorama. Perhaps we gained’t spend a lot time in Hyrule, in any case?
#8 – Will weapons nonetheless have the sturdiness of moist paper towels?
We didn’t have numerous criticisms for Breath of the Wild when it launched, and we nonetheless don’t half a decade later. Nonetheless, we would not thoughts if one in every of gamers’ largest qualms – how most weapons break if a Moblin appears to be like at Hyperlink the unsuitable manner – is addressed in Tears of the Kingdom.
Not too long ago, most of you voted that the sturdiness system wants some tweaks. In all of the trailers, nevertheless, we haven’t seen something to point whether or not weapons nonetheless break or not. We’d hope, on the very least, there is a handy technique to restore our most treasured weapons.
#9 – How usually will it rain?
It appears to be like like Hyperlink can nonetheless climb in Tears of the Kingdom, which begs the query: how usually will it rain this time?
In Breath of the Wild, the thunderclouds made an look nearly each time we tried to scale a mountain or cliff wall, particularly within the Faron area – the house of the Zonai which appear to play a bigger position within the sequel – inflicting us to slide and slide all the way in which again down. It made us need to cry each time.
We’re pleased to haven’t seen any rain within the Tears of the Kingdom trailers to this point. Perhaps Hyperlink has realized to carry onto slick surfaces higher. Or discovered some sticky Zonai gloves? Something to provide us a serving to hand once we’ve clambered up the north face of the Eiger and it begins spitting.
Which of those questions do you suppose will get addressed earlier than TOTK launches in Might? And, extra importantly, what are your personal unanswered questions? As at all times, tell us within the feedback.
