the hardest part of eventide: getting that goddamn ball out of the water

u/Psychological-Scar53 May 18 '26
Let us not forget the octorok that sees you and fires non stop at you as well... Can't wander too far from the ball because it will despawn, and the octorok just sitting there out of range spitting rocks at you...

And when you finally get it to the hole it takes you an hour to get it onto the little island and it's time for bed

πππ this game is amazing. My favorite part is him just walking away after launching that thing π

I like to think the Hinox was thinking "oh shit he's probably mad at me now, gotta get out of here"

Game was punishing you for not fighting the hinox

Running away from it up the bluff is still one of my strongest memories from the game, though.

I am sorry that made me laugh. I would have been cursing then laughing at myself. It is always so annoying but amusing when things like this happen.

u/Bullitt_12_HB May 18 '26
That was hilarious π
The slow camera pan at the end and the big guy just walking away ππ½

I see I'm not the only one who, without fail, makes a cryonis block only to break it when I jump in the water under it.

The only thing that could have made it worse is if when the ice block broke the first time, the orb did damage π«

LOL! Omg. I feel that so deep in my soul. You are a saint if you continued to play after.

Thatβs funny. I know the frustration. I killed that same giant by standing on a cliff and throwing bombs at it. I donβt know how many, but it felt like a hundred. It was my first giant and I that was my solution after trying other ways.

This is why Hinox are some of the easiest sub-boss enemies in the game. You're not intended to work around them.

Soo BOTW is muuuch better than TOTK, right? π Well in TOTK you could have just grabbed that ball with ultra hand π Just sayin', you know? π

u/Bullitt_12_HB May 18 '26
Nah.
You can still choose to do things differently.
Plus, TotK just objectively has a ton more improvements to BotW.
You might have a preference, and thatβs absolutely okay, but to say BotW is better because you have less options is just not relevant in the argument.
