The Dark Secrets of Tears of the Kingdom

In my first playthrough of The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, I find out disturbing knowledge about Hyrule -- the lore behind the world, and how everything came to be.

the chat being censored when riju showed up is some real environmental storytelling

[squidsune]

I was about to cry over sonia dying and then ganon went and made whatever that face was, shocked me so much I completely stopped

[jvts]

Having a statue of Link riding his best friend is quite the power move on Yona

[poggieauggie]

yona's entire segment talking about sidon's statue including his "best friend link" has the exact same energy as "historians say they were incredibly close, writing letters and poetry to each othe-"

[wompsonearth]

The fact that Ganon's tear was implanted on his forehead, and how in botw you have to shoot the forehead of Calamity Ganon to officially destroy him with a Bow that seals darkness with light, it really just awes me how much is really thought of when connecting the story progression with these two games

[mcwildo]

crazy thing is this game confirms that the calamity was just a puppet created from his power just LEAKING out. With him in full control it makes sense why this game is so much harder and why gloom is more dangerous than malice was.

for anyone confused about the difference between Gibdos and Redeads, Redeads are the zambies you fight in OoT and WW, they scream to freeze you and then latch onto you to drain your health. Gibdos are the things you fight in TP with the big swords, and are very similar to redeads, being zambies that scream to freeze you, but instead of draining your health in that game they just crush you with a big af sword. and it appears in this game they are also legally insects :)

Chat spamming smiles when the light dragon flew by to block out spoilers is the most wholesome thing I've seen from a live chat

36:45 Addition to the "fake Zelda clone" that Ganon summons, we know that she is not the real Zelda because she is wearing clothes from the Zonai age and not the present blue tunic. Thats because the past Ganon had never seen her in the present clothes and were not able to create an illusion of Zelda with the present blue tunic. And thats why we see her roaming around Hyrule in Zonai clothes

[depotheose]

i can't wait for him to find the missing memories and piece the story together. It's actually quite fun to watch this episode with knowledge of the story and realising how close he got to figuring out a massive clue

[a-ash]

For everyone, Pointcrow looked for the final entrance to the mines like a 30 minutes. That is how hidden it was. (No sarcasm intended, it would take me longer)

[wolferngames]

I can imagine riju being like: "are those my plushies?" when link pulled out the sand seal weapon

[Halfcraft]

I honestly really loved the great fairy quests because the stable trotters theme is based on the theme makar plays in WW when he becomes the sage of earth. Not only that but the violinist has the same violin Makar had.

[Gloomby]

The whole Gerudo section is the best in the entire game. It felt the most like a classic 3D Zelda area, which is what I wanted most in this game. The dungeon actually had puzzles in it that took some time for me to figure out, unlike the zora dungeon that was over in like 5 minutes

[The-Branch]

It's cool how Kohga's defeat cutscene is basically the opposite of what happened in BOTW

[technician]

so when i stumbled onto Riju… i ran out where she was training and was a millimeter away from being nailed by her lightning strike 😂 scared the shit outta me

[Moon-Fang]

fun fact: if you go to the ruins north of gerudo town before going to the actual town, riju will already be there and the quest will just start. Found it completely on accident trying to get to gerudo town because I couldn't see jack shit

[soupcancaptain]

I don’t think I’ve seen anyone do the rail shrine the “correct” way yet (myself included) and that always makes it fun to see the the way people try and do it

[nathaniallarkin]

I love that the stones just let the sages summon a shadow demon of themselves lol
