    So fricken true

    Does anyone remember that shrine where you had to attach a giant ball to like a raft or something in between some walls in some water? Yeah I had no idea how to do that, was I supposed to make like a paddle boat or something? I ended up just making a giant long ramp and walking up the platform with the ball…

    Botw had some shrines like this too where it was like “oh I didn’t know I could do that, oops I’m at the exit by accident, oh well”

      “Should I navigate this ball through this labyrinth maze or should I just flip the controller over and flick the ball into the funnel?”

      It took me about 15 shrines before I realised that a paraglider might be useful thing to have.

    Is a shrine truly solved if you didn’t try to jank? To jank is to be human

    I’ve gotten into the habit of solving a shrine then googling how I was actually supposed to do it.

    I’ve solved so many shrines with recall and I have no idea if I cheesed it or not.

    After about 60 shrines, I realized that a simple platform and recall is the solution to maybe 75% of the puzzles.

    Reach a place? Move platform and recall.

    Stop a moving object? Recall and cancel.

    Enemy throws something at you? Recall it.

    Etc. (Because I can’t remember other examples, but this covers a lot)
