      The "absurdly sturdy" hylian shield in skyward sword is only unlockable after the game's storyline is pretty much over. Not only is the Lightning Round a big screw-you by not letting you heal yourself, the shield itself doesn't even carry over into the next playthrough, should the player choose to so. Somewhat of an inconvenience in an otherwise well-rounded game...

      When making Breath of the Wild, the devs knew that some people would collect all of the seeds and bring them to Hestu. They also knew those players would expect to get something for it. They _also_ knew that nothing they could give them would be satisfying. So they leaned into that. Then, when making Tears of the Kingdom, the devs decided to recreate the 'dead dove, do not eat' meme in those who decided to do it all again. For those who don't know, the 'dead dove, do not eat' meme is a clip from...some show I don't actually know, where a guy finds a box in the fridge. The box has a note taped to the top of it that reads 'dead dove, do not eat'. He opens the box, sees that there is in fact a dead dove inside, then says 'I don't know what I expected'.

      @@Zelda_Thorn It's not. The Broken Giant's Knife cannot be given to Biggoron. The Broken Goron's Sword is part of the Biggoron's Sword trading quest. The Broken Goron's Sword was a Biggoron's Sword, but the lead carpenter broke it by using it in place of his saw. Even as the result of a master blacksmith, a sword is still a sword. It's not meant to be used like that.

    About the Giant's Knife, Biggoron tells you that his little brother Medigoron isn't as good as he is at forging if you talk to him before giving him the Broken Goron's Sword from the trade quest. But you don't even need to hear it from him. Just compare Medigoron's work to Biggoron's. It takes Medigoron years to forge the Giant's Knife. Meanwhile, Biggoron, who is both self-aware and upfront enough to admit upfront that he isn't consistent with how long he'll be working on his forging, only takes three days to forge something that blows his brother's work out of the water.

    Getting the other 50 gold skulltulas in Ocarina of Time all you get is unlimited gold rupees. That are useless by the time you get the rest of the gold skulltulas because you are already at the end of the game and don't need rupees anymore. You can get gold rupees anytime you want in the Lost Woods as adult Link by beating the 3 Skull Kid's they always respawn. One of the skull kids does not appear until after completing the initial parts of the Trading Sequence. All so giving the bunnyhood to the running man, big poes and the frogs at Zora's River will give you more than enough rupees for the whole game if you play it right.

    Echoes of Wisdom had Might Crystals that enhanced the gear used by Link. The NPC who helped do that offered to make something from the leftovers, but it was a statue that replenished your energy meter for Swordfighter Form. You had to clear every rift to get all the crystals, and you probably already have smoothies that could do the same job as a statue stuck in one place.

    • @GameMasterKyro

      But at least the process of getting them is pretty rewarding. You get upgrades all the way up to 100/125 Might Crystals. Contrast Korok Seeds where you stop getting anything from 440/900. Literally less than halfway there, it becomes pointless to continue.

    Getting the Giant Wallet in Twilight Princess (on the GameCube) was particularly frustrating for me, because I didn't go looking for it until after I got the Magic Armor (meaning I only had 2 rupees left after buying it with my Big Wallet). I needed so many golden bugs, that I quickly overfilled my Big Wallet in receiving the numerous rupee rewards from Agitha for completing all the pairs. After finally collecting ALL of the bugs, I finally got my Giant Wallet, only to then realize that I still only had 500 rupees to my name, and I had to find some other way to fill the new wallet up and finally get some utilization from my new armor! Check the floor, Link! You dropped so many rupees in that same room!

    I'm not sure it's fair to say any mask in Majora's mask isn't worth the effort, given how amazing the Fierce Deity's Mask is. Also, at least the Giant's Knife was designed to be not worth it - that's the fake out to make the biggoron's sword worth it.
    Tend to agree with the rest though, although Ocarina of Time's golden skultulas certainly deserve a mention!
    And part of me also wonders what kind of reward would have actually made the koroks worth it in BOTW and TOTK.. probably better to have nothing than have something underwhelming, given the chances of getting them all in time for it to make a difference to your play through is pretty slim.

So when I played Tears of the Kingdom for the first time, my goal was ONLY to aim for the REQUIRED amount to get all the expansions for melee weapons, bows, and shields.

    i found out the key to doing the mounted obstacle courses in BotW is how fast or slow your horse is going, what bow(s) you're using, and generally being hyperfocused to your surrounding and the mistakes you make and what steps to take to mitigate that error.
    i liked the obstacle course where you jump poles, even if it DID made me salty, but the prizes were not worth it. the bow challenge was a bit tricky (and a waste of valuable resources like quality bows and arrows), but i personally liked the prizes it offered.
    then the pony points system came in TotK and i was like, screw it.

      The Couple's Mask earns you a Piece of Heart by wearing it to the mayor's meeting. The problem with the Circus Leader's Mask is that the "purpose" it has is for a side quest that you already did in order to get the mask in the first place, and there's very little value to doing that quest more than once. As stated in the video, the 3DS version does give the Troupe Leader's Mask another purpose, by letting you get another Empty Bottle, so it's slightly more worthwhile.

    I know this is a nitpick, but do you have to say "The Legend of Zelda" at the start of every pick? Like, we know it's Zelda, that's in the video title. You just need to say the subtitle.

    I don't believe that Zelda games themselves are worth the effort. Or money for that matter. Never getting these games
