Hi
Awesome video
You're so awesome pls can I get heart?
I think the best explanation for the Yiga Hideout being part of the zone in BotW was likely because you need to go there for progressing the Gerudo section of the main story.
That makes sense, bc geographicly I could never understand it lol. Thanks!
I feel that its highly important to recognize your lack of self preservation when breaking rocks and killing mobs.
I commend you my friend. thank you for your service.
Lol i purposely left some of those shots in bc they made me laugh while editing. Thanks for noticing. Having 100+ fairies in your inventory spoils a guy
That’s commitment my man! Most I’ve ever had at one time was like 6 fairies xD
@@boltonatorsaomd9368 If you have 5 or 6 fairies the game stops spawning them until you loose some. It's probably done through a duplication glitch
Riju's room in ToTK now has adorable Sand Seal plushies you can fuse to your shield. That's the only thing you missed, I think. Nice job!
Fuse the blue/green one with a sword, hit an enemy, and watch it yeet across the screen. Doesn't increase much damage, but it does knock the enemy far away.
And I fuckin love that so much
Pikango’s name just makes me smile. Pic(ture) an(d) go. It’s his life’s mission.
And people say that the totk map is EXACTLY the same as the one of botw like copy and paste...both games take place in the same hyrule yes,but they are both very different in various ways like this amazing video has proved,just look how many differences there are in both games and this is only one region of the map...
(Sorry for my bad english I'm italian)
Thanks so much! I 100% agree. And your English is great. I would have assumed you were a native speaker if you didn't mention it.
As a fellow non-native, have more confidence. You write well.
Babe wake up, new episode of Hyrule comparisons is out
The reason that the yiga clan hideout is in the wasteland region in botw is so that the player knows that that’s where you need to go for the main quest
Word. Yeah someone else helped me realize that too. Makes sense, but geographically it still seems like such an odd cutout. A sore thumb of the region lol
@@TheTonyExpress It's like the Oklahoma handle
These videos make me appreciate these areas so much more!
Thanks MistaBeast! I'll be able to produce them faster in 2024, so no more 2 month gaps between uploads
It’s Beast! I never knew you were a Zelda fan
lmao ye @@Mo167ose
There's clearly an unexplained connection between koroks and shrines
Im beginning to think the same. Need more evidence. Time to go research more for my next video script
My favorite ZeldaTubers are now 100 Percent Zelda, The Bread Pirate, Wolf Link, and The Tony Express. This series is so fun omg Tony ❤ keep up the good work! You are so underrated
I appreciate that more than you know. Thanks so much Podo!
1:20
It's because The yiga hideout is necessary and if the towers are not your priority, then you can still see where you are exactly on the map.
Can't wait for part 4 of this series
And thankfully it won't take 2 months to produce bc I'm able to focus on my channel again.. 2023 was a crazy year!
Just binged all your comparison videos. Keep up the good work!
Thanks so much! Cant wait to continue making them. I'm able to work on them more now, so it wont be taking 1-2 months between episodes anymore lol
Isn’t also neat how the center pillar looks like the great deku tree in oot? 8:52
Please don't stop making these!
The plan is to cover every region of the map, then also do other comparisons like sheikah vs zonai shrines, champion abilities vs ghost champ partner powers, runes vs arm magic, sheikah slate vs purrah pad, etc.
been waiting for a video like this for AGES
I was gonna go in the desc to see the gerudo highlands video then I saw it was posted yesterday and thought "GOD DAMN IT THIS WAS POSTERED YESTERDAY"
Lol yeah, but I'll be able to pump out new videos much more efficiently now. Probably not my very next video, but still coming soon!
You miss the small canyon in between Gerudo town and the Bazar.
The desert rift! Omg youre right, dangit! Thanks for letting me know though
Minor point of clarity: it’s a cherry blossom (sakura) tree, not a cherry tree. Cherry blossom trees were bred specifically to produce beautiful flowers, and while some of them do produce cherries, they aren’t a cherry you’d want to eat. Cherry trees, on the other hand make delicious fruit but have fairly nondescript white flowers.
Lol thanks for the info. I'll be sure to name it properly in the next video i do that features one
LETTTSSS GOOO BABY THIS IS WHAT I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR
He be using up all of his fairies
These videos are great. But I'm also interested in comparing Hyrule in these games to Age of Calamity. It'd be a very different beast to tackle given the very different playstyles, and that you can go inside many of the buildings and structures that are not accessible in BoTW or ToTK, but it would be interesting, nonetheless. The canonicity of Age of Calamity is questionable as it obviously deviates from the main series of events, but Nintendo had a far larger role in the development and story of the game than the previous Hyrule Warriors game, and there's still a lot to compare between games.
Edit: Fixed mistake in second sentence, correcting Breath of the Wild to Age of Calamity.
Did you mean to say that youre interested in comparing hyrule in these games to age of calamity? The canonicity of AoC is not in question. It's a spinoff series that's not connected to the LoZ story anymore than works of fan fiction, so i stray away from ising any info from that game when making points in the scripts for these comparisons... i guess other than the fact that i did mention king rhoam's use of the royal claymore in the great plat vid
@@TheTonyExpress Yes, I did mean comparing these games to Age of Calamity. My bad.
Edit: My personal takeaway of the game is that it's a timeline split (despite how much more complicated it makes the timeline, but I have no issue if anyone thinks otherwise. But a comparison in this level of detail still greatly interests me.
@@TheTonyExpressI know AOC isn’t technically canon but the Zelda team had a huge hand in the writing and cutscenes and I think they tried their best to make this a game that could be seen as an alternate timeline to BOTW’s past. It’s not the ACTUAL events of the great calamity but I feel like it gives you a certain hint of what could’ve happened as it’s easy to imagine certain things happened similarly but ended badly in the actual timeline. Plus I feel like too much work went into the design of past Hyrule I have to imagine Nintendo would consider that canon for how those areas of Hyrule did look
2:45 the memory is intentionally right next to the divine beast for a reason. Remember how the dlc memories are unlocked haha!
No vai set anymore sadge :(
But we get the cece hat, frostbite shirt and several bits of legwear that just look like undergarments so femboy link isn't gone yet :)
Would love to see Hyrule castle comparison if possible
Ive gotten 300+ hours in totk at this point, never having reaching that point in botw, so its great to see these comparisons and immediately recognizing some parts from totk and not botw. I really thank you for making these and feeding my addiction LMAO
The guy wants to pack his stuff up. He doesn’t have way too many deliveries ordered
Pretty good video overall! I do miss the lack of mention of the new shifting sands zones, and the big rift that breaks the path between the bazaar and gerudo town, though. But it was pretty interesting nonetheless
Yeah i totally missed that rift between gerudo town and kara kara bazaar. Was sad when i realized that, but i plan to eventually do a deeper dive on comparing all major cities, so i should mention that in the beginning of the gerudo town video. Gald you liked it
Haven't played totk yet but does it really feel that gigantic compared to botw?
Yeah it does
Definitely! The game is enormous compared to botw. Triple layer map and way more stuff to do. This series is only covering the surface layer, but there's also the sky and depths below now. Probably bc botw had to be able to run on the wii u and totk is a Switch exclusive, so more power to work with
I was in the live version of this video! I do believe i helped you find a hidden cave!
There’s the desert rift
Please make more. I want to see Zora territory.
No one mentions that you can get into the shelter from above through an entrance hidden under a sand seal statue in riju's throne room
I plan to do a more thorough comparison of each town once i finish the regional comparisons. There's too much to talk about. I'll definitely include this bit of info in that video. Thanks!
@TheTonyExpress you can only get into the shelter through there before you kill queen gibdo and clear the sand storm btw
Right on, good to know. Yeah the more in-depth city comparisons will go over things before and after clearing relevant temples. Thanks again
I was in the stream 😎
Thanks so much! Were you able to recognize any of that raw footage from the finished video?
Yiga lair shooted out the gerudo map because of gameplay. To make it easy like any gimmicky thing nintendo does.
Alternate timeliiiiine, TOTK is an alternate timeliiiiiine, that’s all there is too iiiiiiiit. 🎉
Level your audio please. Otherwise good content.
Word, thanks. Yeah i did some retakes in post-production that probably didn't match up perfectly, but I'll be more cognizant of that moving forward.
Spectacles isn’t old English boss
Really? In American English you never hear ppl call glasses spectacles anymore, although the word is still used to refer to visually striking things, as in "making a big spectacle". I was wondering about British English when I wrote that though.
Not looking it up, but I’d guess it’s old fashioned, not Old English. Old English is essentially an entirely different language from what we speak now.
@herosmerlose5784 ahh i see. Let's go with old fashioned then, thanks
“Coss”
if you’re in the market for a new mic, check out the razer siren mini :) it’s really good for the price
That's....not how you pronounce 'aquifer'
I like zonkezz😦😦😦
What's that?
8th Pls can I get pin?
hated totk gerudo desert...bland, empty, no ganondorf easter eggs, or clues about when he ruled...just..blank ruins.
True, that's a good point. It would have made the desert more exciting to see some forgotten history from his time ruling in ancient hyrule.
I was super let down yeah, that and every temple getting the same copy paste cutscene...never seen so little done with so much for no other reason than...meh, f story. But thats Miyamoto's fault.@@TheTonyExpress
@KEHflipMEDIA agreed 100%, the same cutscene story told by all the different sages blew my mind with the amount of laziness that took to pull off lol
@@TheTonyExpress I gotta say also such a great video man keep doing it. Also yea I agree I was so hyped I b lined it for the desert when I first booted up the game. My heart sank.
TOTK is a mediocre game. Underdeveloped storyline. Plot holes. A large open world with little to do.
