My daughter is almost 7 months. And here we are, I thought my sleep was gonna IMPROVE 😂😂 That's my personal bad news

[nonynopez]

If you press Y while selecting the material that you want to fue to the arrow you can sort by “Most used item”, high damage items, Type of item and zonnai items. So that totally solves your concerns about not finding the thing you want to fuse

We sure have made it to launch week. I’m so goddamn excited it’s unbelievable I never thought this was possible. On Wednesday night I have to beg my dad to take me to GameStop on Thursday for the midnight launch because the game will ship to our house on Saturday and I can’t miss Friday. HAVE FUN EVERYONE

[magius]

Well... I played the game and when it comes to the arrows :
You can sort them by "favorites" actually. Just press "Y" till the sort bar lands on the second space, and it sorts by "most used". That being said I do believe there should be a button to auto-fuse arrows, cuz it is cumbersome to lose 1-2 seconds every single time you wanna shoot a bow.

Been playing on my Stean Deck. Best ever game for me. I got 500 hours plus in BOTW. I think that game is my new 4th favorite Zelda game. TOTK is not only the best Zelda but best ever game. Been playing games since the 90's and this is legit that good. Sky Islands are a big deal, underground is a big deal. Legit themed dungeons with bosses are a big deal. New enemies, a lot them too All over the place. The overworld is more filled in. Environment story telling. New mechanics and so many of them. The map is a similar Hyrule with main landmark points, but feels mainly different. It has so many amazing caves. Not filler. Yes shrines are back but better and don't all look pretty much the same. Great side quest. Different variations of old enemies and a lot of new ones with their own variations.The story is 70% better. Ganon is actually in the game. Way more items. Way more weapons. Fuse weapons. Very interesting caves. New way to shoot bows. Tweaking of the stamina bar. Bran new abilities. The building system is crazing. That's a game in itself. The tower uncovering map thing is done way cooler. I mean I could go on and on. Similar in key ways to BOTW, yes. It is after all a sequel. A very, very good one. You get it. In a week you won't be done and your jaw will still drop and you'll have drool dripping off your chin.

Object's rotate at 45° degrees angle along the x, y, and z axis which feels pretty natural. Im assuming what throws people off at first is the z axis which is complicated at first.

[Budymryo]

from personal experience, the rotation aspect of ultrahand is really weird at first, but once it clicks it clicks man

[blackstar]

Out of what iv used so far for arrow fusion. I have to says ice keese eyeballs are op. It freeze the enemy solid and it's still homes in so you can't miss

[codysouthard]

I've avoided every single spoiler. I'm proud of myself. Gotta stop by best buy and pick up my preorder before work. I'll get off after midnight and then dedicate every free moment to it. The wife will understand, I hope....

[magicth]

Maybe it’s because I work in 3D creative software a lot, but after tinkering with Ultrahand… it’s a minor learning curve. It’s as good as it can get without going full axis 1 degree increment shenanigans.

[weebflex]

I was told through the grapevine that fusing items with arrows, you can also sort by most used and strength potential

[AllenAllanAlan]

I've been going back to BOTW to finish the DLCs and I still make mistakes with the controls, such as dropping a bomb instead of throwing it. I think it's down to having so many functions in the game and playing so many other games that we have to re-orientate ourselves to each game's controls.

[theriffwriter]

I can't get over how much I like Link's new long hair. I think it's just the one outfit but still.

[iinathaniii]

A good way to help with the ultra hand rotation is just picking it up and then dropping it, then doing ultra hand again. Dropping it helps put it into a nice horizontal angle.

[VaraxEstin]

I took off the entire weekend from work so I could pick this up day one and play it all weekend. I never do that, ever. Then again, I've never been as excited to play any game as I am for TOTK.

[choy]

Been playing the game daily since leak… it’s really not bad you get used to ultra hand ultra quick. The arrow thing is true however you don’t need to attach random shit to your arrow every freaking time. There are plenty new ways to approach combat with the weapon fuse mechanic

[withlex]

I had the chance to play it on one of my friend’s hacked switch and the controls are the same as in BOTW, the ultra hand’s the only thing that changes and obviously it’s gonna be iffy at first but you get the hang of it when you mess w it for like 5 minutes straight

[NoseyEmu]

The controls are almost identical to BOTW, the only stuff that really needs talking about is the ultrahand and rotation, the rune button being changed, and the quick materials menu.
The rotation is simply a case of experience but is not actually that complicated, to put it simply, in between all possible ways to rotate an object, there is a diagonal version, changing a log from flat to standing up is two presses up on the D-pad only.
The rune button is just habit from BOTW. XD
And the quick menu remembers your last item, meaning you can simply hit the quick menu button once and it will select it for you, not even a button press is required, there is even a way too filter items, based on damage, zonai devices, recent and something else, but plenty of options for getting to what you need quickly.

hope this helped. : )

[Tanya-dylexisic-fingers]

I am so looking forward to it all!! I hope it all comes together!

[JennyJewels]

I'm so excited to play totk. i will also be sad that all the daily totk hype videos will be gone.
