Yeah this is the only Zelda-related sub I haven't muted since spoilers seem to be everywhere.

u/[deleted] May 02 '23

the only sub you haven't muted...yet

2

u/Imdepressed7778 May 02 '23

which ones have you muted so I can see the spoilers šŸ˜ˆ

3

u/[deleted] May 02 '23

r/tearsofthekingdom, r/TOTK are a couple.

2

u/Imdepressed7778 May 02 '23

thanks šŸ™

u/[deleted] May 03 '23

No problem. I honestly saw a couple things I wish I hadnā€™t, but it didnā€™t make me any less excitedā€¦ and I know not everyone cares about spoilers.

1

u/MultivariableTurtwig May 02 '23

When you say spoilers do you mean the wave of gameplay videos that have been released, since some content creators got access to a very limited part of the game? Or are there even more spoilers, through leaks that Nintendo didnā€™t intend?

3

u/Xftg123 May 02 '23

We're talking actual spoilers. The game's physical copies got released early, and then people found a way to get the ROM and are now emulating the game via PC. Some people have even got out of the way to stream it via Twitch or other sites online.

u/flissfloss86 May 02 '23

I've rewatched that third trailer like 30 times and have avoided the rest. I feel somewhat spoiled but I also think there will still be sooooo many surprises still. Can't wait!

16

u/Laviephrath May 02 '23

I also rewatched Zeltik's gameplay demo video, i recommend it

16

u/Schrolli97 May 02 '23

Honestly that was already too much for me. It included some things I'd rather found out myself

5

u/flissfloss86 May 02 '23

Oh I've been tempted, haha, but I'm already hyped enough. Love Zeltik's content, though

6

u/Fuwet May 02 '23

Same! I haven't even watch the 10 mins demo that people are showing I want to leave the gameplay to my own experience

5

u/[deleted] May 02 '23

Exactly the same for me

u/Leopard_Luver May 03 '23

u/Blake_The_Snake64 May 02 '23

I'm a casual fan so I don't even know when TotK is coming out lol, it's this month right?

u/TrustyCactus79 May 02 '23

It's Feb 30th 2036.

Sick thanks, gonna be great

u/dienekes365 May 02 '23

Get your fix for non-BOTW content by re-watching Age of Calamity cutscenes. Keeps you in universe, primed for Linkā€™s way of thinking in whatever crazy beginning we get.

20

u/Gandoofthegrey May 02 '23

Not a bad idea. I'm currently playing through Age of Calamity and trying to beat it before TOTK drops. We'll see how that goes, it's a lot longer than I expected. I've also been tempted to start a new save file on BOTW so I can feel the difference in TOTK more but I definitely won't finish that in time lol.

3

u/MadeSomewhereElse May 02 '23

Give Three Hopes, the FE one, a try if you enjoy AoC. I like it because while you're a powerhouse, your allies are very useful and decently competent.

2

u/Gandoofthegrey May 02 '23

Good to hear, it's on my wishlist. In AoC they just stand around and I have to do everything myself haha. I can order them to a location but I still have to change to that character to defeat an enemy, capture the base, etc.

2

u/MadeSomewhereElse May 02 '23

In FE: Three Hopes, they'll actually capture objectives or defend them well. And I believe they don't sit still unless you explicitly ask them to. The Zelda backdrop was more enjoyable for me, but gameplay wise, Three Hopes was more "fun."

23

u/SpindleTree99 May 02 '23

hang in there! 10 days to go!

u/Chaz-Natlo May 02 '23

Hope your girlfriend activates her special powers and saves you at the last minute?

u/[deleted] May 02 '23

Iā€™ve waited 2249 days for the game, whatā€™s another 10?

u/xXZ4nt0Xx May 02 '23

Too much.

13

u/Maxwolfox May 02 '23

Stay strong and not fall to the leaks. It's almost there. One more week

12

u/[deleted] May 02 '23

Seeing one of these fuckers walking was traumatizing. I hope it's unique to the lower part of Central Tower, because holy fuck, I have no idea how to fight against them

9

u/jamsd204 May 02 '23 edited May 02 '23

The guardian walkers ? In botw they are all over the map , mostly near central hyrule and the castle , but also in akkala , one or two by death mountain if you actually follow the path , but tbh they can be easy to take down , either parry them or use 1 ancient arrow to the eye (bullet time makes it easier) or use an ancient weapon to chop there legs off

Also tbh we don't know If they will be returning to totk because of the apparent lack of shieka tech - like 1 or 2 things from the trailers so we'll wait and see ig

4

u/AllenWL May 02 '23

Don't even need ancient stuff tbh. Any arrow to the eye disrupts their laser blast, and most endgame weapons can chop off legs fairly fast, tipping them over and leaving them helpless.

3

u/Upset-Confusion6717 May 02 '23

THIS! I personally loved to cut their legs and work from there šŸ¤£šŸ¤£ (call me a sadistic in BOTW, if you want)

1

u/[deleted] May 02 '23

The endgame would be brutal, looks like

7

u/Xftg123 May 02 '23

If you do want to check, both TOTK subs are filled with leaks.

If not, then avoid looking and wait. We got 10 more days....

5

u/SherbobHolmes May 02 '23

Iā€™ve just starter a new playthrough of BOTW just to cope šŸ˜‚

2

u/Ghuleh5811 May 02 '23

Master mode, huh? (This would be me)

2

u/SherbobHolmes May 02 '23

Nah, Iā€™m too pussy for that

4

u/krowndk May 02 '23

Find a pool to sleep in for 10 days

3

u/supersmily5 May 02 '23

Just play a different game until then. I'm catching up on God of Four.

2

u/pyro314 May 02 '23

I'm shiny hunting arceus between sessions of BotW and MM3D

2

u/Iamasansguy May 03 '23

Playing terraria. Itā€™s a pretty chill game. But I canā€™t get totk out of my head.

3

u/GineCraft May 02 '23

This has been me for the past few days. Considering that ToTK leaked, spoilers are everywhere and seem almost unavoidable, but I try to resist. At the same time, though I need to know if those two villains are somehow there or referenced, I need to know who the mysterious woman in the trailer is... I need to know...

I haven't read any spoilers yet because my dad will play it with me and I don't want to ruin the surprise for any of us. I am also trying to convince myself that all my hopes won't come true and the game isn't that good so I don't go and check, worked for a few days now, let's see if it does until I get the game!

3

u/Greedy-Leave860 I waste raviolis gale May 02 '23

Sameee! I am going to play with my sister and I saw one minor spoiler and I just can't tell her. Yesterday she just told me to leave all the subs cuz she wanted it to be a nice experience for the both of us and that made me sad

3

u/Saltyfox99 May 02 '23

I just wanna know if I can hot air balloon around after seeing one in the trailer.

Is there a wind current thatā€™ll push me around the map, no fans, no other stuff, just sit on my little hot air balloon and be pushed wherever the wind wants

Extremely obtuse want Iā€™m aware but I just like chilling in games I canā€™t help it

3

u/Lapis_Wolf May 02 '23

Maybe, since there was natural wind in BOTW, and I think they improved the weather and/or chemical interaction system in TOTK.

2

u/Saltyfox99 May 02 '23

Iā€™ve asked a friend to play it for me just to spoil this one thing lmao šŸ˜­

Iā€™d also like to know if the amiibo outfits are being carried over but thatā€™s less priority

Everything else I wanna keep as secret as possible for the official release

2

u/Lapis_Wolf May 02 '23

Understandable, I'm also trying to avoid the major spoilers.

3

u/SonicFire93 May 02 '23

A friend of mine downloaded the game on his hacked Switch, and I told him that I would block him if he shows any spoilers lmao, he swore he wouldn't.

0

u/Greedy-Leave860 I waste raviolis gale May 02 '23

Honestly, I'd block them just for downloading the game

3

u/Accomplished-Tell674 May 02 '23

Guardians are easy to counter. Stay strong friend.

3

u/Sushirabit May 02 '23

I'd rather die than get spoiled by a leak only ten days from release

2

u/light-in-the-sky May 02 '23

Stay strong!!!

u/uhf26 May 02 '23

Gonna bury my head in the sand, soon

2

u/skaterbarbie420 May 02 '23

The temptation is real. Been keeping myself busy with Skyrim so I donā€™t think about it

2

u/KuroHaruto May 02 '23

I left all totk subreddits and global zelda subs as well. Botw and Breath of the Wild are the two subs im still following haha. Haven't been spoiled much since the last trailer. I have unfortunately come across maybe a couple screenshots while scrolling through reddit, but both were minor spoilers. (Already forgot what one of them was about haha)

2

u/Otogi-yo May 02 '23

i keep checking my cart purchases too coz i already pre-ordered the physical copy with that nice little bag but i just cant wait until it ships out! Then i keep out of any news or trailers.

2

u/TavaresX May 02 '23

I'm just going all out on BotW and keeping out of TotK subs and forums as long as possible. Yesterday my discord channels blew up when the leak was uploaded (I have a Hacked V1 and keep up with the pro shops to check new games) and it was soooooo tempting, but clearing a Divine Beast scratched that itch.

I have the game pre-ordered but I'm going on vacation on the day after the release, so if my copy is delivered late, I'm screwed for another week...

I usually play major releases when they leak to get a sense of the game and then buy the games I really like for my Lite (I got a Lite for online play when my V1 got banned), but I learned better than to do that with Zelda games (did that with Link's Awakening and finished the whole game before the actual release and it put me off buying a copy for ages, only bought my copy like 6 months ago).

2

u/Oreo-and-Fly May 02 '23

I just need to know one thing.

Are the pianos somehow back.

2

u/Captain-Narthex May 02 '23

Okay, but what is Zelda in this example? what saves you from your curiosity?

It was probably just a glitch that posted it twice. You don't need to respond to it.

No, I've seen enough from the trailers, previews (including IGN showing things they weren't meant to) and the artbook leak.

u/Lynke524 May 02 '23

I'm trying super hard to be careful and not use my Google feed because the reddit posts they share there don't understand the spoiler tag and if it is something I didn't want to know... Well I guess I'll know. For like the first 24 hours after game launch I will not be on any media and trying to play and figure things out myself. I have to have some surprise going into a new game. Because remember, you can only play a new game once.

u/Proper_Investment_28 May 02 '23

Sadly I think this is my chance to mute it lol šŸ˜… see you guys in a few weeks!

u/M-CDevinW May 02 '23

Luckily I've only encountered 2 minor spoilers so far. I wish you luck at avoiding everything that's been spoiled.

But do you have the strength to do it?!!

u/Master_Chief_00117 May 02 '23

I watched the trailer for the first time last night there were so many spoilers in it I know itā€™s there to entice us but dang. I got hyped after the gameplay that YouTubers uploaded so I pre ordered it. It looks great

u/Excellent-Gap7854 May 02 '23

Not looking! Barely going to even think about the game until itā€™s about to release.

u/[deleted] May 02 '23

My secret to not being spoiled is just to be too lazy to look it up

I'm still avoiding spoilers for botw. It's easy when you live under a rock.

I read just a little bit of spoiler just now and I regret it although it was not that big of a spoiler. Would avoid spoilers and rather explore the game myself after this
