It's finally here - 60 Minutes of Useless Information about TotK! It took me countless many more hours than one to research, write, record, and edit this video, so I hope you enjoy. Tears of the Kingdom is a super fun game, and I think it gets a bad shake because Breath of the Wild came first and Nintendo focused more on gameplay than story, but I had a a blast creating this series. This is the series finale. Maybe more useless info someday, but for now I'm moving on to other video ideas. Thanks so much for watching and reading!!

It would be so cool if there was a room in your tarrey town house that let you display all the useless trinkets you collect from quests like the well globe, hestu's gift and all of the medals.
Right!?! A trophy room for all those things would be cooler than leaving it in the last page of the inventory menus

I’m happy for him but I haven’t skipped through a sponsor so fast in my life lmao

@@OtakuUnitedStudiothey're not doing five figures for a small channel lol
I'll agree it's a sellout, and easy enough to skip ads
Listen, I need the light root medal, because I was convinced that I’d found them all at least three times only to not get it, signaling to me that I had missed another AGAIN. That medal is my friend. It lets me finally rest
I'm a completionist so I would get it anyway but I wish it did literally anything than sit in inventory. Like wear it, show it off, light-roots purge gloom faster...
I know majority of the light roots are directly under the shrines. I can’t remember if it’s all of them though
A lack of illumination in the map didn't tip you off???
I missed a single light root SO SMALL i had to be in that area and fully zoomed in on the map to just barely see it. So it depends on what light root you need...@ianweston310
@@OnitaFreeze Sounds like either the Hyrule Castle lightroot or the Skull Lake lightroot.
The Goddess Statue one at 12:25 is actually not entirely correct. The Gloom dispersal occurs every time you BEGIN interacting with a Goddess statue, it doesn't reoccure if you continue the dialog. But if you pray at a statue for stamina or a heart container, and then quit the dialog, and interact with the statue again, you will see the gloom animation again!
Oh dang, should have tried that during my testing. Thanks for the info!
21:30 yes it bugs me a lil
fun fact: to my knowledge, there are 4 lightroots that arent exactly below their shrine counterparts on the surface - the three labyrinth lightroots, and the kawakarut lightroot in the west. my best guess as to why that lightroot isnt directly under its shrine counterpart is that the shrine on the surface is on the edge of a pond, meaning that the area directly under it would be surrounded, if not inside, impassable wall.
There's a couple light roots under shrines that're near rivers/lakes, and those light roots have small pockets of air around them. Heck, the one under Lake Hylia has an entire tunnel connecting it to the nearby island's chasm.
My guess is that it's the maze's chasm itself that gets in the way.
All lightroots are exactly under shrines
20:10 Though it's not 100% certain, we have a pretty good guess on Zelda's last name through King Rhoam's full name of Rhoam Bosphoramus Hyrule.
Yes, that does mean Zelda's full name is Zelda [Insert middle name] Hyrule but that's the best we have for now.
Zelda Hyrule is such a funny sounding name to me, it hits the same part of my brain as Sans Undertale or Steve Minecraft.
@@314Marvin It's the same as Charles Wales, which the King of the United Kingdom was officially enlisted as during his military service. It's silly, but it actually has precedent in real life.

Still going for sub 1hr
42:36 We don't know who transformed into these dragons. There's no reason to think it was the goddesses specifically who have been the most abstract beings in the whole series. Zelda transformed into a light dragon, Ganondorf a dark dragon, these could perfectly have been sages or some sort of mages with a penchant for a specific element. In fact a stronger suggestion is that the new elemental tunics in TOTK belonged to these individuals.
There is no evidence whatsoever to suggest the 3 dragons are draconified like Zelda was. They're explicitly stated to have served Hylia since ancient times, given they are attendants of the springs they are either reincarnations of the SS Dragons or an entirely unique set of dragons that also fall under Hylia's command.
The outfits are explicitly used in worship of the dragons, they mimic them they did not become them.
@@infiniteedge4427 I don't suggest this must be the case, but in the context of this game it doesn't seem far fetched that like two other dragons we've witnessed, the other three likely were people at some point. Zelda and Ganondorf keep some of their traits once transformed (Zelda's thin face, blonde hair and light "skin" / the Demon King's red hair, massive build and dark "skin"). The other three have a snout, mane and scales that remind of Rauru and Mineru. It could just be an esthetic connection (beings close to the goddesses may share traits like the longer ears), or some Zonai could have transformed, or who knows maybe the Zonai are descendants from dragons.
The game never says whether anyone else draconified but that goes both ways, descriptions only mention that the tunics they were used in ancient rituals and that the dragons are from "ancient times", which leaves room for anything. The dragons could have been divine manifestations at any point, or people who worshiped previous dragons or Hylia herself, or something else entirely.
@@mkjjoe The Zonai have no connection to Hylia, yet the dragons do, furthermore the outfits show us the Zonai worshipped the dragons, This is contradictory to the idea of Draconification being a forbidden act that goes against the Zonai's culture, why would the Zonai worship the draconified if such an act was repulsive enough to them that it was forbidden? furthermore the Zonai are only shown to have had 7 stones upon descending into Hyrule, this means there can't be more than 7 after the Zonai made contact.
the dragons do not resemble rauru & mineru in the slightest, people are taking vague animalistic features and attributing them to everything.
@@infiniteedge4427 I don't see why we'd conclude any of that, my point is that it's all open as of now. We don't know why the Zonai would / wouldn't worship draconified people and forbid the act. Maybe it's blasphemy to take a stone for oneself without merit or a sacred duty, maybe it's more about losing one's mind. Who said the Zonai have no connection to Hylia? The mural depicts 7 that Rauru is known to have access to, that doesn't mean there weren't others at another point and as implied by Zelda and then Ganondorf, Rauru's ancestors visited the surface before him. The ancient dragons could have been from any time.
As for the physical similarities it's one thing to be skeptical but to pretend there's no resemblance at all seems a bit much, again why close off a possibility when the connection is so easy to make. And the overall theme of the dragons and Zelda/Ganondorf looking the way they do as dragons, I don't see how you'd skip that. But so be it.
@@infiniteedge4427 I don't think we can confidently say the Zonai have NO connection to Hylia. It's possible the dragons were Sages that served Hylia before swallowing their stones and becoming dragons, possibly when she died sealing Demise away as The Imprisoned. The Sacred Stones aren't necessarily connected to the Zonai either except that Rauru got hold of several and gifted them to his closest allies as Sages. They weren't necessarily created by the Zonai and could have existed far longer for all we know. But the fact that Recall, a time-based power, is specifically tied to Sonia and Zelda, who are supposed to be of Hylia's bloodline, there is at least SOME connection since Hylia herself is associated with time-based powers like in Skyward Sword.
The most absurd item I could find to fuse is the sand seal statue behind the gerudo town throne room. It’s only movable due to the fact you can access the shelter through it, but I was surprised to see it could fuse considering most miscellaneous items used for quests could not fuse.
21:20 the Light Dragon remained in the heavenly realm above the clouds waiting for Link until it descends in the cutscene after Link sends the Master Sword back in time at the Temple of Time
Also the Geogplyhs weren't in BOTW because the Light Dragon created them when she saw Link at the start of TOTK.
@@Nilon241 well she didn’t create them, she revealed them upon her return. They were created by ancient Hyruleans who saw visions when they touched the dragon’s tears.
i literally made this connection today when i restarted totk like "wait a damn second..."
Man, this really makes me sad that TotK isn’t getting DLC. I mean, I totally understand why, it makes total sense, but what I wouldn’t give for a nice hearty DLC pass…
The eyes on the wall appear to move because the pupil is set back in the eye socket. It's the same way Disney creates the affect in the Haunted Mansion. You can test it yourself. It's a fun project. Just take a Styrofoam cup, cut off the bottom (leave about half an inch), and then draw a dot in the middle. Leave it on its side, on a table, and then walk around it. Look at the dot. It will look as though it is turning with you.
Hah, next time i have a paper or styrofoam cup I'll try that... probably Friday tbh. Sounds like a fun little experiment, thanks
@TheTonyExpress a fun thing to do with the kids make haunted paintings around halloween. You buy the canvases with the wood frames around them. Paint a face. Cut out the eyes. And then put something behind the eye holes that sit and draw pupils. I like using egg cartons because they are the right shape. You just have to glue, or otherwise attached the egg carton pieces behind the eyes.
37:51 I feel like literally no one knows there’s another bed Link can sleep in freely, even if you don’t count the one in lookout landing. In Zora’s domain at the location where you talk to Sidon in BotW to initiate ride-on-Sidon-shoot-shock-arrows-at-Vah-Ruta, there is a random bed nearby, and Link can freely sleep in it. It’s in both BotW and TotK.
Still think they moved in together though.
I'ma have to go looking for that bed then. You sure it's not just the inn?
@@TheTonyExpress positive. These are the 4 coordinates of the beds that link can walk up to and sleep in. The tarrey town one is approximate since you can make any kind of house you want. The one in Zora’s domain is at the northwest end of east resevoir lake.

Fun fact:
Link’s last name is “Link” which is a funny nod to how mario’s surname is “Mario” too.
In the mini stable fact is funny cus in the end we see a backround npc saying: "That's odd" 🤣
Lol i know, i was gonna comment on that in the voice-over with a slow zoom over to him, but chose to focus on the spedup footage of link running back and forth. Good catch!
clickbait. I learned so much from this
For the fact about the king’s grave
Why does age of calamity being non canon have anything to do with it being referencable??
It’s pretty clearly an AoC reference. BotW and Totk reference tons of past Zelda games despite their dubious canonicity to the BotW and totk timeline, It’s fine lol
Making a reference doesn't necessarily mean it's confirming anything specific, other than Rhoam using a claymore.
I personally feel like AoC should be treated as a canon Zelda game that take place in its own splinter timeline. But things like character traits, locations, and certain events in AoC were based on BOTW's creative notes and the game itself was closely monitored by Nintendo staff. Fujibayashi and Aonuma were both supervisors on the game and had to give approval on a lot of aspects. I wouldn't be surprised of Aonuma was asked if Rhoam could be a claymore specialist and liked the idea enough to make it canon.
@@OtakuUnitedStudio yeah exactly
Like is it illegal for a game to reference a spin off now? Weird opinion to put in this supposed fact video
Because botw fanboys have a massive hate boner for aoc lol
@@foggy8298I’m getting that vibe from a lot of the video tbh
It's been categorically stated by Nintendo that AoC is not canon in any way.
If there’s ever a TotK sequel, I hope it brings back the twilight or something. Maybe underwater exploration and more sky islands as well! There could be 9 dungeons and could be more linear. I’d love to see the city in the sky to return!
Before this game came out, underwater exploration was one of my biggest hopes
@@TheTonyExpressme too! I was also hoping for the oocca to return. Though I’m not disappointed with TotK in the slightest lmao
I was hoping for an expansion of the Eastern Ocean, to give a Wind-Waker vibe to the game.
I would love a plot point about the Twili needing a new home and moving into the Depths. Could be a good opportunity to explore some missing sages; who better for a Sage of Shadow than a Twili?
I just want a DLC for this game man. I know they said no but the game feels kinda incomplete without one.
The thing about the dragons is a common misconception. They are divine spirits who work for the gods and can only be seen by those who are pure of heart, wherein they take the form of a dragon. There is no evidence to suggest that they are the result of Draconification, nor is Draconification ever suggested to be the only method by which dragons can exist.
But how do they know draconification exist ? These dragons must still exist unless they were killed and exploded like Ganon
@@maxenswlfr1877 Since it's a forbidden technique among the Zonai that few people even know about, it probably happened at some point before the Zonai even descended from the heavens. Any dragons resulting from Draconification will have remained there and cannot be found in the mortal realm. Zelda was told about it because it was relevant to her time travel situation, but besides that it was a secret that almost nobody was allowed to know.
@@Some-guy-on-the-internet And even if the dragons ARE the result of draconification, it's a huge leap to assume that the Golden Goddesses draconified into them. It's more likely to have been Sages who specifically acted as their mortal attendants. Even then, it's equally possible without further information that they're just dragons.
The things you laid out and the dragons being draconified beings don’t have to be mutually exclusive. The Light Dragon is referred to as spirit taking the form of a dragon too. I find it way more likely we’re seeing Draconified Zonai, due to the similar mammalian features, white hair, and glowing scaly beards. I know it’s not stated directly but why would they introduce two new dragons alongside the pre-existing three just to say that there is no connection? That would be silly.
22:13 wait what? Is this considered obscure? Is this footage from Reddit the only thing that exists of this online?
Basically, what I can say is that the full mural appeared for me once I completed the Dragon's Tears quest, which makes sense as two of them depict scenes only seen in memories. I liked watching the whole thing after a play session.
What I would find rarer and unexplained would be that sometimes, the title screen would show a completely black mural at random, with only the wall pillars remaining. To my knowledge, this is an inconsistent bug, and it is similar to another one showing a completely black map after you exit to the main menu sometimes.
Ilan

Jj
I always thought that the “obscure mural” (as he said) was the normal game start
Thanks for continuing this series! The comparison of tower launch heights was interesting, and that Zelda-bass edit can't be unseen.
7:56 In addition to the Great Plateau shrines, there is also another Zonai shrine that can be seen for a brief moment in the "Birth of the Demon King" cutscene down in Gerudo Canyon at the exact spot where the Jee Noh shrine appears in BotW. There definitely seems to be some kind of deliberate connection between the Sheikah shrines and the original Zonai shrines.
34:01 I was also very confused at first about why the shirt wasn't obtained before the game's title was played, but I think they wanted to ensure Link was shirtless for his first skydive in order to make a parallel with his last one in the game's finale. It also may have been to help teach the idea that individual armor pieces are found by exploring different caves.
glad you like the series and the bass pic. Yes, I believe there was originally a zonai shrine on the great plateau in each spot where we found a zonai shrine/chasm in botw/totk. There's def a connection on the gp, but I've only found two spots on the map (so far) where there's a shrine in the exact same place between games. One set was near the Riverside stable in hyrule field, and the other is inside a giant hallowed tree east of the castle on crenel hills which i'll be talking about in my next hyrule comparisons video
For the Ganondorf mural fact, I'm pretty sure the eyes are concave. Concave eyes are an optical illusion that makes it look like the eyes of the painting or carving are moving and following you around. Another example in a video game is Shara Ishvalda in Monster Hunter World, who's inspired by Hindu artwork which commonly uses concave eyes.
Also, just because Age of Calamity isn't canon doesn't mean the Royal Claymore isn't a reference to it. Besides, while the events are non-canon, the characters are still very much their same original selves, so we can assume that King Rhoam did have an affinity for royal claymores in-lore, unless Nintendo specifically states othrwise.
To add to the butt scratching section, if you go into selfie mode, hold ZL (alt stance) and cycle betwern up/down it looks like he is headbanging 🤘
It's not an alternate timeline. The mural is still there in the beginning of the game, and Ganondorf already knows who Zelda and Link are before she travels back in time. It was always fated to happen.
Graves in Japan are not dug into the ground, they are built out of stone, and generally only have a compartment for ashes, which have had the bones picked out. So the Rowan grave makes perfect sense from a Japanese perspective.
10:25 As someone currently grinding for lizalfos tails, this is not a useless fact. Also if you're using your sensor+, it will beep on the spot even if it's currently the daytime where the lizalfos are hidden underground.
Double fun fact on the ultrahand toy: it was actually designed by gunpei yokoi, the same guy who made the gameboy.
21:35 they all do that. The Master Sword glyph in particular can go wayyyy out of the play area with the right zoom and it irritates the hell out of me lol
Yeah, it's because the glyphs on the map screen stay the same size regardless of how much you zoom in or out. They're only truly to scale when fully zoomed in.
i love the fact that the end of the sponsor segment is the most replayed in the entire video
"This will take 60 minutes of your time"
I'm watching this at 2x speed to rebel
34:20 duuuuude, yes! The first time I played TotK I spent like 30 minutes running around that damn area looking for the chest for the shirt in it. I was convinced I missed it somewhere. You are not the only one, friend.
Thank you for pointing out the scimitar geoglyph map thing. I will _NEVER_ unsee that... Ahhhhh!
38:00 note, only npcs refer to the house as Zelda’s, there is no location marker on the map giving it a name
20:09 unless zelda is married already, her last name should be 'Hyrule' as her father's name Rhoam (something beginning with B) Hyrule
That effect you showed with the brightbloom seeds and the shrine entries can also give you a cool effect if you do the same above the emergency shelter.
With the mural eyes following you, that's actually an old artistic trick. The eyes are slightly recessed. I wish I remembered the name of the technique. It's an optical illusion that just makes it look like the eyes are following you.
36:14
you can also use fans on those hovering platforms to reach the recall shrine. I'm doing a no teleport run and I made it up there in under 10 min.
Ahhh, that sounds way easier and more efficient lol
does anyone find it weird how there isn’t a Rito Paraglider Fabric when ritos are the ones who can fly and tulin flies with you when you have the paraglider out? strange
Well obviously that's why they have no need for a paraglider
@@Rikken552 i wasn’t talking about a paraglider *for* the rito i was talking about a rito *themed* paraglider *for link*
@@jinsoulnoodles except they're not really made specifically for link. They're just things link happens to get given from helping out others.
@@Rikken552 well you get what i meant, for hylians in general then
The default paraglider fabric has Rito desings, so technically, you start with a Rito fabric
20:50 she doesn't, the time travel is clearly deterministic. The light Dragon was always there, but was hiding in the sky. That's how Ganondorf knows Link and Zelda at the start, she didn't alter the past, as it already happened with her in it.
Tony you made my 2 and a half hour study hall much more bareable. I love these videos so much
Happy to hear that. Good luck in study hall
6:44 That's not invisible ground; that's the ceiling of the Depths. Almost all of the collision in this game is two-sided, but the textures usually aren't two-sided unless you're _meant_ to see both sides (this is an example of "backface culling", if anyone's interested).
0:51 that’s a real optical illusion people use in relief carvings like this! It’s done by carving the irises deeply into the eye, so when you move, you can still see them and it makes it seem as though the carving is watching you. Cool detail, I never noticed it being used there in-game!!
I booted up my ToTK save I made at launch, and I’ve actually got the rock-covered murals in my main menu screen! I have to imagine it’s triggered after completing all the main quests, but I could be wrong.
20:51 I don't think it's an alternate timeline, because raveling in time doesn't always make new timelines. A good example is Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, where Harry and Hermione travel back in time and save Harry from dying in the past before going back to their present, therefore staying in the same timeline. As for the geoglyphs, they probably appeared in the same way that the Zonai Shrines reappeared. The Light Dragon was probably kept secret by the remaining Sages and lost to history.
Yeah, weren't both the Geoglyphs and the Light Dragon hidden before the Upheavel happened? I swear in the quest introducing you to Geoglyphs, Impa even mentions that they appeared recently.
@@wurtknurte7283 Yeah I've always felt like the it was the theorists overthinking it. Like, the Sheikah Towers were unknown of too, but that doesn't mean it was the result of some butterfly effect. Sometimes the explanations are rather mundane.
I'd always assumed the geoglyphs were dormant in the ground after so many centuries and the sky islands and light dragon were just high up in the sky where they weren't visible, and that the upheaval and Ganondorf awakening sort of reactivated them, causing the geoglyphs to come back to the surface and the sky islands and light dragon to come closer to the ground. The murals at the beginning of the game remain unchanged after Zelda travels back in time, so I thought this was an instance of time travel that was always meant to happen, and that Zelda going back to the past was a piece of history that had always happened, thus keeping to a single timeline
If it made a different timeline, how did we even get the Master Sword back
@@zavodila9279 Exactly.
5:30 It may just be, the game does reference Impa’s fear of heights, which was established in AoC
I think the character flaws and traits are canon but the events themselves are not. I don't know why people say the entire game is just tossable when the lore building of the world and characters can be built upon.
@@MinatheRaichuexactly, theorists have taken the lore AoC introduced but leave the events as likely non-canon
20:51 i really cannot understand how people can be so ignorant to think this is the case, im really sorry if you thought about this theory, but its just dumb when you replay the game, like, literally BEFORE zelda travels back in time, ganondorf knows them because of the events that take place in the past, zelda not appearing in the sky as a dragon is explained by just playing skyward sword and botw, since the dragons alongside the sky islands are above the cloud barrier and just like in skyward sword, the barrier is only visible from the sky and not from below, that's where the portal of the dragons in botw led to, this barrier gets destroyed by zelda herself once you complete the intro of the game after sending the master sword to the past in a cool cinematic; about the dragon tears, the marks of them weren't obviously planned for botw but the geogliphs appeared after ganon's resurection, they also were made by hylians after zelda throw them to the land, just like the last dragon tear doesn't have a geogliph
5:34 It’s possible to make references to non canon things. They’re fun Easter eggs, and don’t have any lore implications
The Ancient Hyrule Castle can actually be seen from the outside in the location above where the later Shrine of Resurrection would be in one of the memories. I forget which exactly, but it was one in the back area of the Temple of Time.
The title screen change is triggered by completing the 5th sage's questline, during which the 5th sage explained the history of the murals in great detail. None of the other quests' completion are required to trigger this change. I tested this out months ago and I'm very proud of it.
I climbed to the top of the sky dive challenge(where you start diving) before speaking to the zonai robot to start the challenge. He recongnized my bravery to scout ahead first.
Hah, ill have to remember that for a potential new useless info video, thanks
@@TheTonyExpress gladly~ 👍
You didn't mention that EX-king could be referencing the code name for the switch, the NX (Nintendo extreme likely)
Dang. That would have been good to include, but I didn't actually know the switch's code name. Good info, thanks

RE: the last fact
shooting portable pots is excellent for dealing damage against taluses
0:56 it’s an effect used in lots of things like haunted houses, movies, games, cosplays, ect. Called “Follow-me eyes” where due to the sunken eyes they appear to follow you around a room
54:35 You can defiantly grab a schema stone before acquiring auto build, you just need to explore areas out of order/ I believe the Aerial cannon is the one I found before acquiring auto build but this should work with anything.
GET THAT RAID SHADOW LEGENDS MONEY.
I'd imagine that with the chaging images on the title screen, it's probably tied to unlocking the memories. This is purely speculation and not based on any research or facts, but it would make the most sense to me.
When you go to your camera roll in totk, you will find the pictures of the murals that zelda took and I deleted them all😂
Hey Tony, I just discovered that as far as the schema stone description goes, if you do manage to gain a schema stone through illegitimate means, you do get the text used in the "unused" description. I found this out by playing the randomizer, and just now I got a schema stone, but I don't quickbuild, and it gave me that description
An absolute enormous conclusion to the greatest game ever made.
Just got home from work and found the 60-minute episode dropped 4 hours ago.
Pretty good day.
I literally was hoping for a new useless info video for Totk and now I can finally watch after my shift! (:
You probably need to 100% everything in the game to get that backround
For the opening screen one, I have the extra bits, I have got all the sages and I've beat the main story and got all the geoglyphs however, I have not 100 percented the game or got all the shrines.
Regarding 22:58 You need to complete the game, restart it and wait for the title screen to cycle about 3 times. Then you'll see the rest of the murals.
i think the lack of sky islands is also a part of the lack of 8 shrines, it really seems like they wanted 160 but got rid of some of them, this leaves us with only an unsatisfying amount of 38 hearts, they explained that they had the problem of the sky islands looking too small when looked from the surface, maybe this is because there were originally more sky islands instead of their size
this is useful information, but in the depths, at every place where the overworld has a mountain, there is a mining site containing treasure, and at (most) forests there is a grove, which also has treasure.
In the ancient zora waterworks you will find this white frame around the green alter activation device. You can find a duplicate of that white frame underneath the water temple upside down.
At 23:07 you talk about the murals going by and seeing only a few, out of curiosity I booted up my game and just waited as they cycled through, eventually the ones hidden by the wall popped up. I currently have all 5 sages and have yet to beat the game or even enter the depths under Hyrule Castle to reveal the rest of them. Maybe you only need the sages? Or maybe it’s just a random thing, either way, cool detail I figured I’d share.
All the goeglyphs on the purah pad are oriented differently to on the actual map, the gravestone and master sword glyphs are the easiest I found to notice it on
Genuinely one of the most entertaining videos I’ve seen I absolutely love these
Shooting a hover stone arrow places the hover stone a bit forward, in the path of the arrow's flight.
What stoped one of the champions from just walking up to Gannondorf while he was frozen by Raru and cutting his head off?
that's an interesting question...
The “illusion” with the mural of Ganondorf was probably made by creating the eye shape using a concave shape with the internal edges acting as mirrors to reflect the image. This is also how Shara Ishvalda from Monster Hunter “tracks” the players camera and not the model
The plant on top of the noble persuit looks like basil. MAYBE mint. Pfft. Parsley. This is the only thing i can be pedantic about in this video 😂
Loved these. BTW, your Anthony Jeselnik impression is on the money lol
1:11 it's hard to put into words exactly how it works, but it's because the eyes are in a hole so looking at it from a different angle makes it look like they're tracking you.
41:08 The X might be from the code name for the Nintendo Switch that was used around 2016 the NX, Nintendo X
23:11 I think you have to reveal the mural under Hyrule Castle, then do Mineru's quest. I think that's what updated the main menu for me.
Someone else said it happened for them after finding the final Dragon's Tear.
17:11 I would say that if anyone wants to hear the stakes play music they can do it themselves. I, personally, would enjoy another useless or practical information about totk
I def need to make more practical info videos. I think the useless series is complete for now, but will make more once the game has been out for a while longer to give time for more things to be discovered. I have some fun ideas for trying to play the stakes though, so I'm going to do some testing and see if it'll work ;)
The bit with how the red/ice lizards swap out is NOT useless. I had used this previously to farm up all the necessary tails, as those swap-outs were the most bountiful source of either.
Zelda is left-handed?!?! I’m heartbroken!
8:05, Wait... If the shrines were indeed used to capture demons, and those shrines seem to have been destroyed, does that say something about the bargaining statues? Because of the eyes you find in those locations... Are the bargaining statues demons?
There's only one bargaining statue (it just got moved between games), and it's pretty clear that something is, indeed, trapped in it (that's what it talks about when you first meet it in both games). Although _what_ exactly is inside of it is still unclear.
the stake covers for sarias song and the LOZ theme are not in the description
what if Zelda was hiding in the depths when she was a dragon and that's why you never see her dragon in botw
She was above the cloud barrier that can be perceived in Botw when the three dragons fly up in the sky and you see a portal.
@@Ahouro valid
I think the fiery area is associated with a quest, theres an NPC that camps there as part of it, and his campfire is where the area is, but the fire isnt there otherwise, but its damage remains
My understanding is that completing the Dragon Tears quest is what opens up the rest of the mural in the main menu. That's what happened for me.
The butt scratching clips sent me I'm so sorry I'm a simple man
Im at the point of nerdiness that I said "no tloz information is useless" aloud. Ill admit that I sat here for a few minutes to really wallow in the shame.
21:38 it’s not a glitch that the geoglyph doesn’t “stay lined up” with the land, its by design. The geoglyphs are scale invariable on the map, so they stay the same size even as you zoom in/out on the map. Even if they aligned it perfectly at a specific scale, as soon as you zoom in or out it would no longer appear aligned, instead appearing relatively warped compared to the real glyph as seen on the actual overworld.
The alternative would be the geoglyphs being scale variable just like the map itself, making them appear much smaller when not zoomed in. I guess they tried both and the scale invariable presentation gave the best result
For the 22:20 one. I’d guess its from getting all the cutscenes that show up in the memories tab. Pretty sure I got that for my game since I recall seeing them.
I love you for giving me all this pointless info. Can't really explain why but this info is like sustainence for me. Waste as much time of my life on this stuff as you'd like and I'll still thank you for it
The way to get all the mural panels in the title screen is by having all the memories
ahh, thanks! that's one thing i havent done on my current playthrough yet. I had to factory reset my switch to go back to version 1.0, which deleted all my save data from my first playthrough.
@48:23 It would have been a neat detail if Zelda did put in actual photo album on the Purah Pad to reassure Link. Would have made for a neat side adventure, as you try and find all of the locations where Zelda took Selfies while traveling with Rauru, Sonia, and the sages only to see that they're either completely decrepit or just flat out gone. The dragon tears may have shown us the most important memories, but the album could have shown us a brief window into slightly happier times
If I remember correctly from what I heard in other videos the “lava” in ToTK at 6:16 is where the campfire is in the quest just before clearing the storm before spirit temple
BABE WAKE UP NEW TONY EXPRESS VIDEO DROPPED🗣️🗣️🔥🔥
Will up shut up man?
so about the ganon murals in the tittle screen, i just got those after getting the vow of mineru and having the memories from the imprisoning war... so i guess thats the trigger to get those murals on tittle
33:38 if you have a turbo controller, empty energy cells, and put turbo on the A button, select the zonai cell item so Link will continuously consume it and it looks like…. 😂
You dont need a turbo controller to mash A for a moment in the pause menu to get the effect I believe you're talking about. I think it looks like that too and it's hilarious and gross at the same time 👹
Edit: dude i wish i would have included that in the script. "And if you empty the energy cells and rapidly refill with energy charges it looks like hes jer--" and then on to the next fact
If pokemon games were better these days, I would love to see you use this format for a pokemon game. Keep up the great work.
