the amount of people not pressing the R button and losing that first 🎺 saddens me 😔
Yeah, it is not the same without that brass fart spooking you
zelda master did
*sad 🎺 noises*
Thinking the same thing. So many people missing that first very cool audio/visual impression.
WORD!!!
So glad Nintendo was able to keep the Depths a secret. It was a real treat to discover this place.
And I also agree, it's too bad so few streamers did not dive. The music played during the dive really made the discovery more impactful for me.
In one of the trailer there was a scene in the depths, with a really high ceiling and the coordinates indicating Link was below the surface
@@Nacil_54you get it by watching the trailer in details, but we were never sure there was a whole other map down there
They did not keep it a secret lol
Yeah idk why they dont dive
@@wunder4402They did a pretty good job I'd say. I saw every trailer multiple times and never knew.
i'm sad the horn music only triggers when you dive down into the depths, a lot of them missed the biggest jumpscare of my life :'))
honestly I feel like a lot of people are underusing the diving feature, great for midair mobility.
especially painful when watching rtgame's playthrough as his only death could have been avoided if only he had dived instead of fallen
I didn't know that. i paraglide because it was dark and i didn't want to risk a game over by fall damage
i didn't know you could dive until i watched someone else play because i turned on pro hud really early and so the button prompt for diving never appeared so i never learnt how to do it
Yes! Ioved that little musical bit. The brass playing a glissando downwards, emulating your descend into the unknown darkness, is such a simple device, but it‘s SO effective. The sound design of the depths in general is immaculate.
I didn’t know that because I pretty much dive every time lol
Imagine that, in my first dive, I found NAYDRA FUCKING DIVING TOO and then I transversed a big chunk of the thing in complete darkness on naydra's back
ME TOO OMG
That sounds like an _incredible_ first experience with the Depths. I'm honestly kind'a jealous.
Is that what it’s called? I found a dragon near the labyrinth Lightroot. I rode it briefly.
@@kaizoisevil If you pull out your camera and hover it over an entity, it'll tell you what it is. But yes, one of the three elemental spirits that fly through Hyrule is named Naydra, they're the ice spirit appointed by Nayru.
@@divinecervine See I didn't have a camera at that time. I only just unlocked it.
This moment was mind blowing. You just slowly realize "oh. ohhhh god, I'm going to be spending at least 200 hours in this game, aren't I?" lmfaooooo.
It was overwhelming I can't believe I can forgive this company for charging $70
Huh
I've already exceeded 200 hours and I haven't even cleared the map yet..
200 is rookie numbers
im 200 in and I've only got 2 temples beaten (wind and fire). it'll be 300 before I beat it and 500 before I 100%
Thanks for including me! I really appreciate it even if I don't use facecam most of the time
hi
Always fun to see reactions to new things 😎👍
whatttt zackscott i can hardly see you caring about something like this with how popular you are! that’s so cool most humble youtuber you’re content has been amazing since way back when, I found you through New Leaf and the first Last of Us and it was some of my favorite content, hope you’re doing swell!
@@bushwacker4321yeah honestly same zack Scott is so chill
My main man Zack 🤘🏼
I first discovered the depths through a well… I had no clue what the giant holes were about and I got distracted and wandered off. I found the well, made some dumb joke about Timmy being stuck down the well and hopped in… instantly my heart dropped and it felt like I was playing Subnautica for the first time again, discovering the dead zone. Just horrifying
wait, which well?
@@popsicIes I don’t remember the name of it but it was towards the west of Lookout Landing and next to a river
This is exactly what happened to me!!!! Lolol
@@joshsantos7477is it the rowan plain well, near the tanagar canyon? Its got a chasm in it
@@rubellite4480 it’s the one next to the Regencia River, south west of the Ancient Tree Stump
If you let yourself get immersed by this game, the first dive down is one of the most terrifying moments in any game lol your mind just fills you on whats down there in all that darkness. what a amazing thing to discover without getting spoiled beforehand.
It's not the scariest thing but it's pretty close
@@tumultuousvyeah, the hands take that place.
When I jumped in there I just expected to void out, I just pulled out the paraglider every few meters because I didn’t want to die, and since I hadn’t activated the quest with Robbie I couldn’t see the ground and just glided forward, far away from the lightroot. Best gaming experience ever.
It brings back some memories of Skyward Sword and the terror I felt then...
There’s nothing scary or unique about this game. It feels like a fan mod of Botw (a much better work of art).
I love how great a service Nintendo did to their players by just not telling anyone about this. They advertised the land and sky, as if they’d doubled the size of the map, but almost everyone gets to learn for themselves in play that they’d actually _tripled_ it.
I LOVE THEM FOR THIS.... THE LOVE THE SURPRISES !
Eh. More like 2.5x. Still, certainly more than advertised which is _wonderful._
This is why they couldn't fit this DLC for botw, because it was supposed to a DLC
@@cats4603was it? I never heard that
@@cats4603I wonder which parts of the game were initially DLC and which weren't. Would they really have Ganondorf of all people as a mere DLC boss when he's meant to be the source of the Calamity?
Imagine entering the Depths for the first time without the horns.
Couldn’t be me
Yeah, very stupid choice by the developers to only play that sound if you dive. What's the point?
@@somerandomnon-importantper3219
It's because it's much more practical and expected to dive in occasions like this. It's also worth considering that it doesn't make sense to play diving music when you're not actually diving anywhere but just falling.
@@SlowWinterNuts When you dive into a dark pit where you can't see the bottom, gliding is just as natural
@@somerandomnon-importantper3219
Gliding uses up stamina, so you're guaranteed to fall to your death unless you stop paragliding. It's very clunky to navigate while falling, which is what the dive mechanic is for.
Hence, diving, which gives you a huge amount of maneuverability and is extremely useful. You only maximize your displeasure by avoiding to dive.
I’ll never understand how some people’s first time exploring down here comes like…..HOURS into their playthrough. Bro….how did you resist the temptation to fall down the gloom chasm pit things? You’ve got 12 hearts and JUST NOW figured out it exists?
I dove into the Depths once I realized it was the only way to quickly get the Master Sword.
Oh boy, that Gloom Hand before the Korok Forest depths was a nasty surprise. And my first Phantom Ganon fight... epic!
Answer: mortal terror. At least for me.
@@rosewillow5453 there is nothing so terrifying in this entire game that would be able to quell my curiosity. I’m shocked anyone has that kind of impulse control.
my first chasm was the Hyrule Castle chasm, lmao. I almost run directly into Ganondorf without knowing
There was definitely no way I would jump into that sketchy hole when there was so much to do in the surface and sky islands. I didn't get to the depths until way after defeating the 4 first dungeons.
the fact almost all of them missed the dive music hurts
And to think that everyone was still extremely scared. Imagine if they heard that horn as well
“There’s the surface, the sky, AND the depths!?”
That was my reaction too, this game is huge compared to the last one :)
And wells... And caves... It sure is
What's crazy to me is all of these people's first depths encounter was from the Hyrule field chasm.
Mine was from droppig into a well
Mine was from the yiga clan hideout chasn
The one between Batrea Lake and South Nabi Lake?
@@humbertosandoval55 I only remember it being South-west ish of Lookout Landing as I was heading for Gerudo Town at the time
Mine was at the Great Plateau.
I mean this is the first one the game tells you to go to
Discovering the depth was mind blowing.
Then a little bit later when I realized shrines and lighteroots corresponded with each other it happened again.
Cannot believe they kept it secret until launch.
The lightroot’s name is the shrine’s name backwards
I was shocked when I realized how big it was. And again when I realized the water in the overworld is where cliffs are in the depths.
@@UchihaJabbaWAIT WHAT
HUH
@@aditya_a lol switch back and forth between the surface map and the depths map and you can see it for yourself! Took me a while to notice myself
My favorite part is we had no idea Nintendo did this and yet it was technically shown in one of the trailers, in one trailer you can see strange looking bokoblins mining an ore deposit, the same strange looking Bokoblins cna be found in the dephts and guess what they do? Mine, Nintendo literally shwoed us this and yet nobody knew lol
I theorized for so long we would get a massive underground area to explore hell I even had a dream about it so I was so happy when I found out I was right!!!!!
I assumed the chasms had an extremely high difficulty level so avoided them until...
.
.
.
.
.
.
.

.
.
the Death Mountain chasm during the Goron Regional Phenomenon. To go from the boss fight, to diving INTO the highest mountain in the world, and to just keep falling... until outlines of lava appeared in the distant ground below and I realized how big this underground was... what a feeling.
Favorite part of the game tbh
Yup fire temple is my fav one
My first encounter with the gloom was running into Gloom hands. That was also my last encounter with the Gloom for a good while LMAO, noped out of there real quick, and legit just avoided anything gloom related, until Death Mountain XD Thankfully, limiting my exploration to only non-gloom things really, REALLY doesn't mean all that much when there's SO MUCH STUFF to do, so I was perfectly fine XD and that's one of the things that's great about this game - whatever order you wanna do things is, whatever thing you wanna do or not do... yeah sure, that works!
I thought I was the only one!! I avoided the chasms as I assumed it would take me to the final boss (+ area/quest). So my first plunge was Death Mountain as well. It wasn’t until I jumped into a random chasm that it sunk in that the depths extended the full map.
I went through THREE temples and much exploring, expecting to find the autobuild quest eventually before I finally decided to peak online and realized I had entirely missed Robbie at lookout landing. After much facepalming, it was hilarious and satisfying to do the introduction to the depths and finally fill my L wheel.
I did the exact same thing! I was very confused and hesitant when Yunobo tells you to jump into the volcano and I was completely blown away!
My first drop was from top of the Great Plateau. I literally felt like I was in the mines of Moria from The Fellowship of The Ring. By far the best part of the depths
indeed, also in that mine you get the auto build ability.
the music from the depths give me chernobyl vibes
same
To me it felt like The Upside Down from Stranger Things.
It was mine too. It was genuinely scary doing that quest line for the strange bargainer statues.
It's pretty odd that they made it only play the music if you dive into the Depths, and also very unfortunate. It's such a powerful and disturbing moment the first time, and it seems like a lot of people miss out on it. It would be even more terrifying for someone slowly drifting down the whole way with the glider out of fear
Yes, hello, that was me. I freaked out so hard 😅
YOU'RE TELLING ME PEOPLE WERE SPARED OF THAT HORRIFIC NOISE?
I have not been this scared of a Zelda game since Majora’s mask
I felt like this game is to BotW as MM is to OoT.
i'm 110% certain that majoras mask gave me my first anxiety attack at age 11 lmao i rented the game and i had no idea what was happening with the moon lmao
I shit myself when I was flying in the depths and it was pitch black and colgera was suddenly beneath me
@@MetalPharoah It's more like what LBW is to LTTP tbh
Scared? Really??? 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I had the sense to not touch the gloom before it was explained, needless to say I was terrified that it showed me how many hearts I had after getting the light root
this is it, this is the one
Thank you for including my playthrough! One of my favourite parts of the game so far, for sure! Gliding down the tunnel was amazing, the 🎺 was so cool
Your reaction was easily my favourite, you have a wonderful, genuine presence!! ❤
The gloom hands killed me in some random cave before I even went in the Depths... I was absolutely HORRIFIED of how many could possibly be down there and walked around so cautiously
My first chasm ended up not being the one in central hyrule, but the one on the plateau where Magnesis used to be.
And holy cow was it an experience. Gosh. Couldve needed a change of pants with how scary that dive into the abyss was followed by having no idea what was there.
Gloomed enemies?? Walking trees?? Nothing but darkness? Yeah im gonna die here
That was my first chasm too. I think I didn't have the paraglider when I saw the central hyrule one and when I did get it I wanted to revisit the plateau. So weird how those specific spots are chasms and how the shrine of ressurection sort of faded away
i did that part at night. tried to sleep but i was intrigued and terrified at the same time
Nobody expected the Depths. Nobody expected TotK had three maps rather than just the Sky & Surface. The fact Nintendo and possibly their testers keep it hidden for so long is a testament of will power. With so much things to do and experiment (I'm looking at you, Zonai builders with your crazy builds and machines), the game's massive delays were DAMN worth it to fine tune and test everything. If this doesn't take game of the year at the VGA at the end of the year, it would be a robbery.
Now to wait for the SMRPG remake and SMBW.
As Shigeru Miyamoto, the creator of Zelda, said: “A delayed game is eventually good, a bad game is bad forever.” Delays are more than worth it if it’s to ensure that the end product is truly quality when it does release.
It was totally robbed for GOTY, unfortunately 😭😭😭 UGH!
I avoided as much spoilers as possible and it was worth it. When i first learned that the depths were not just small dungeons/ caves and were actually as big as the grounds, i was shocked. And i learned that way later in the game because i thought they were propaply an endgame dungeon or something.
I still want to see Gloom Hands reactions
This surprise was pivotal for my overall experience with TOTK. Such an overwhelming sense of doom. There's a sort of primal fear with not being able to see in the dark, and they captured it so well. Reminiscent of my first time entering the Dark World in LttP as a kid. I hadn't had that sense of wonder in years.
Bro how is no one “diving” into the depths ??? 🤔🤣🤣 they’re missing out on the greatest ominous jingle. Especially the first time you need to hear that when going into this hell hole
Because people don’t want to crash into the wall or ground
The chances of crashing into the wall or ground are significantly bigger when jumping in than diving, much better mobility as well as grabbing the glider takes the same amounting time
I am not diving at an accelerated speed into a ground I cannot see approaching. Sorry that we're 'missing out' on a cool noise but when going into the unknown safety comes first.
...Anyway, I get the sound all the time now because I either can see when to slow down, or I'm wearing the full glide set.
I was scared and wanted to be careful 😞
@@Meteorite_Shower (little late but) well excuuuUUUuuuuse me princess !!😊
That first trip down to the depths was one of the best moments in gaming for me. Awe, wonder, joy, excitement and fear all wrapped up in one. Also the fact that they brought in a "Dark World" into the new era of Zelda makes me so damn happy. Masterpiece of a game!
7:40 he put it so well, I couldn't agree more. The feeling I had as I was diving down there and landed at the bottom and discovering The Depths gave me a feeling I've never had from any game ever. Such a weird mixture of shocked and disturbed and intrigued at the same time. And I did it probably like a dozen or so hours into my playthrough because I didn't go to get the paraglider for a while. I will never forget the feeling I had the first time
Meanwhile me the only one who went down into the depths the first time near the Lost Woods. 😭 I was looking for Hestu and ended up finding both the depths AND Gloom Hands for the first time the same night. After they choked me to death, I just sat there in silence, shut my Switch off and went to bed 😂
My reaction for my first time traveling to the Depths my mind was literally blown and I legit say, “WTF?! What is this?! Am I going down the rabbit hole or what?!” This was literally after I made it to Lookout Point and was busy exploring the realm of Nostalgia but I wasn’t expecting to see a giant abyss in the middle of Hyrule Field!
It's interesting how, even though you can enter the depths in so many different places, most people still enter it at the exact same spot for the first descent.
It’s probably because we naturally pass this location on our way to Lookout Landing for the first time lol.
Yeah, that is the intended 1st one. Literally connected to a quest as well.
Was weird for me. Didnt get the paraglider till 20 hours and My first chasm was east of hebra where is a sheikah tower... Amazing feeling first time diving in
One thing I really love here is seeing the variety of equipment people have on in their first dive, some very early game, some a bit later. The variety of things to do and ways in which to do them makes this one of the most open open-world games ever, even forgetting how they doubled the map size. And with the sky it's really more like 2 1/2 maps, there's a lot of open space up there, only the depths truly doubled the map.
Also, @shadypenguinn mentions how they could have just made this DLC, that is a very significant statement. I was sad all the legendary equipment were on DLC for BotW, but they brought them in the main game here then hid them is this hellscape to find. Whatever DLC they do come up with is going to have to be phenomenal to be worth paying for on top of the base game, I'm confident they'll pull it off.
Now my only requests are a gold cartridge, an enemy who gives you rupees and says "It's a secret to everybody", and a cave that you bomb open and get charged for door repairs by the crotchety old man inside.
I don't get how people been finishing this game in like a week.
after a week i was like LETS LOOK UNDER THE CASTLE!!! lmao
The speedrun’s under an hour already.
@@maxspecs insane!
I've gotta say, the first time I entered the depths, I was really scared, the bgm was so deep, but I ended up liking it
The depths is why I am hopeful Nintendo will one day give us a remake of LTTP. The relationship between the surface vs depths reminds me of the relationship between the light world vs dark world.
From various observations that could be made about the connections between the Depths and the surface throughout the game (inverted terrain, shrines and lightroots lining up with each other, major population centers and major abandoned mines lining up with each other), I kinda got a vibe that Nintendo might have intended the Depths to be the actual truth behind the "Sacred Realm" mentions in the other games. A world of sacred light that reflects in some way the world of Hyrule and can become corrupted into a Dark World.
Let's be honest about that LttP remake idea though. Nintendo would just make it a straight copy of the original game. They would not reinvent the game from scratch. (As much as I've sometimes (long before they ever made the Switch version) wished to see a remade LA where the egg actually sits at the center of a fully fleshed out map of an island instead of having the egg on the north edge of a grid like the original game... I just have to admit that for Nintendo that option is not on the table.) We would not be seeing a large BotW/TotK style free roam version of the LttP layout and we would not be seeing chasms connecting to an underground TotK style interpretation of that Dark World.
Hmmm... Random thought though... Imagine if they make another sequel continuing things for this same Link as BotW/TotK and they reintroduce Lorule. Let us still have the chasms to drop straight down into the Hyrule Depths, but also give us some sort of magic that we can zap a chasm with to transform it into a portal to Lorule. You fall "down" through the hole but then gravity reverses and you land outside of the corresponding hole in Lorule. And the Lorule chasms could function the same way. Jump in and fall straight down into the Lorule Depths or zap it with some magic to get a portal that flips us during the fall and lands us outside the hole in Hyrule.
I would want to see bigger differences between the two kingdoms instead of LBW's gimmick that gave us a fake LttP Dark World though. Have them build their towns in completely different locations from each other.
They almost remade LTTP once but it became Link Between Worlds lol
@@Scharfster Heck, the Oracles games were the end result of a project that started as "let's remake both NES games and make a third game to go with them as a trilogy". That project morphed into "Mystic Seeds trilogy" and then to simplify the password system they cut it down to the two games which became the Oracles.
@@MuljoStpho I wonder if Nintendo will be keeping Lorule as canon? I thought they might with SS as Demise sword bares an inverted triforce. I am not sure if Lorule comes up again other than LBW.
Although LBW was fun, it was a bit of a copy paste from LTTP with the dark world being replaced by Lorule. I remember reading the development teams behind the scenes. They had to go through a few ideas before Shigeru Miyamoto signed off on it but it still felt like it missed some of that Nintendo magic. I suspect Miyamoto might have felt it would feel too familiar for those of us who already played LTTP. TOTK does a much better job of enhancing what came before in BOTW.
LBW introduced weapons hiring and navigating through walls. I vaguely remember doing something to abuse Ravio weapon hiring mechanic.
Oddly enough the LBW travel through wall mechanic made a reappearance but on Super Mario Odyssey. It was a fun mechanic but I loved the dimension hopping from LTTP between the worlds and how progress in one world required something being done in the other.
In the month before TOTK launched I was replaying LTTP multiple times and even discovered another way Nintendo allowed us to play it by going through all the dark world dungeons collecting all the key weaponry and armour. You get to unlock everything on both over worlds and then return to the dungeons better equipped for a boss raid to access Ganon’s tower and the then the final boss.
I could not believe I never played LTTP like that years earlier. It was a new experience to playing the game. LBW I played and completed one time and I have never picked it up again since.
my reaction diving into the depths was honestly one of the most terrifying expierences ive had playing a game. there was barely any hints to it in the trailers, so when i jumped into the chasm i just thought it cut to link falling and yelling like when you fall into the abyss of a shrine, so imagine my surprise when it just kept going and going and the horn was just mortifying
My first experience with the Depths was going to the Great Plateau straight off the tutorial sky islands (because I knew from pre-release footage that she seemed to be positioned around there and I wanted to see what'd happen if I found her early), BSing my way all around it looking to see if Zelda was there and what'd changed, then at the old Cryonis shrine seeing the hole and going "Why is there a giant hole with malice coming out, does this connect to the DLC dungeon or something?", saving, then throwing myself into the pit.
I fell for about 7 seconds, saw everything go black, looked up to see if I'd accidentally glitched the game and gone under the map, then my body hit the wall of the pit, and about 5 seconds later my corpse hit the ground and I had maybe 2 seconds to see that there was ghosts(???) and what looked like some kind of altar at the bottom.
Needless to say it was quite the rollercoaster of emotions. When the game reloaded I did it again and looked down this time as I was falling and faceplanted into the ground, then decided to leave and come back as soon as I had a paraglider or something because I'm a sucker for underground exploration.
This was my EXACT experience haha!
i also went to the great plateau first thing after I got a horse and went in the bomb shrine chasm before I had the paraglider, then once I got the paraglider I went down the same bomb shrine chasm and the first thing I did in there was SPOILERS
[get autobuild and fight master khoga, without even knowing either was there, it was amazing lol]
Imagine Nintendo put a Frox right on where we first landed
That's a soul's move for sure 😂
I hate that most of them didn't even dive. That was the huge part when diving in the chasm. It's kinda cringe to see them paraglide in the middle of it 🫠
I couldn't agree more!!
The game is usually kind enough to give some point of reference to show how close you are to the ground long before you hit it. While I still used the paraglider myself, it was definitely after I saw the area open up. I was pretty annoyed though that something so essentual as the paraglider was _optional._
I mean Roamer did it twice and died twice. If is the first time going there why would anybody dive not knowing when they could crash?
it does suck that a lot didnt get the horn. But diving is a feature introduced in totk and a lot of these streamers have most their time in botw, where you'd fall without diving while using the paraglider intermittently to scope out the area and avoid fall damage. Took me a while to start diving instead of just falling too.
I have hundreds of hours in botw. The streamer excuse was a bit silly.
Thanks for including us! Also thanks for not using my 1st time in the depths, i think we died from the fall. It was wicked Dark to see and couldn't see the ground coming.
If people wondered why I was confused about light roots, I saw them in the depths, but didn't want to light them off camera.
Anyway thanks again. We had over 80 streams of this Game, it's Legendary
Going below into the dephs felt like Rock Bottom from SpongeBob. Funny that I passed that giant whole when I landed on Hyrule, looked down and said maybe it isnt important. Moving forward when this missions had to be done, I was freaking out when it all became pitch black. I hate the dark since my mind comes up with creepy situations. Needles to say I hate this area and have to lifht up every place I go.
The Depth was an experience, I got shivers and felt too cautious around me while first time exploring the area. But got used to it quick.
Show the likes: how many of us went into the depths expecting lightroots as Shrines?
To be fair, 152 is a LOT of shrines, and almost all of the non-blessing shrines were bangers!
BOTW had 120, AND a higher frequency of copy paste combat shrines.
I thought my first time jumping into a chasm was pretty interesting,
I hadnt gotten any memories or the paraglider yet and decided to follow my ape brain impulse to jump into one.
I thought the lightroot I saw was some sort of cuccoon that Zelda must be trapped in. (for some reason??)
I kept jumping down and dying over and over to try get a proper look at what was down there.
Crazy experience. I wish I could play this game for the first time again.
The first dive and hearing the horn genuinely scared me. It gave me of feeling of dread like I should not be in such a dark and uninviting place. So powerful
I like how the sound of the horn just interrupts these streamers I’m uncertainty as they dive in!
Would be cool if nintendo added an eyes in the darkness in the depths. when you dive down you see giant eyes all around but when you turn on the lightroot they disappear until you travel to far into the darkness and then you can see them again
It’s impact certainly lessens over time, but your early exploration of The Depths is just incredible and full of dread
The details I love about the Depths is most things are reversed. So when it is a river on land, in the depths it is a wall that you can usually not climb over. The shrine names are reversed as the lightroot names too.
The hilarious thing about watching them for the first time all react to how deep it is and that they can’t see, is that I’ve been playing the game for 2 months and I still can never judge how freaking deep I have to go when I jump down a chasm. 😂
ok so hear me out, when I first found the depths...it was super terrifying. Once I made it out of the sky island tutorial I took absolutely no cues from the game. After haphazardly running around the overworld map for 2 hours trying to figure out where to get the paraglider, I realized you need to go to lookout landing to get the paraglider. Once I had the paraglider...I walked straight to the ocean and made a raft to get to eventide island...the first breath of the wild location that felt unique and interesting when I first played breath of the wild. I thought the large chasm at eventide island was unique to eventide island. And unlike the hyrule chasm hole, there is no fire or light at the bottom, I did not know about how to use bright bloom seeds and the light root is not near the chasm entrance. I accidently wandered into the colosseum, in the dark, with no light, 3 hearts and no understanding of "the depths"...I died so many times before I slowly cheesed the enemies and got out. I was shocked when I realized the "depths" in eventide island was isolated and that there was a larger "the depths" map. It was mindblowing.
Imma be honest chief when I did that one thing for the camera and was going down, I chickened out mid fall and said “Nope nope pitch black darkness with no equipment? Yea…no, later” then I teleported out
Thanks for this compilation! I had the same reaction and was genuinely mind blown. It was cool to watch others have a similar experience. Nintendo is awesome
I dove, and my reaction to the trumpet was "well, that's ominous."
Imagine if you jumped down the one that has a Frox at the bottom….
So happy i didn’t get the depths spoiled, i was actually so shocked to find out there was a whole freaking map underground the normal map!
The first chasm I went down I just saw a whole bunch of enemies glowing red and the scary music and I just noped out of there
The dude who just plumetted twice killed me lmfaoooo
When the Depths really "hit" me, I was just absolutely beyond baffled. I had kept all my expectations low and, just like that, I knew they really had put in the time
Gotta love how everyone went "T H E D E P T H S" when they got to the bottom.
I just started watching Roamer play some of the older 2D zeldas. It was a pleasant surprise to see him in this video 😊
Same! I was really surprised to see Roamer here, love it though hes such a sweetheart
The fact you put THE Mr A in this comp makes me so happy. He is a truly underrated and entertaining creator ❤
People are wild, just diving in headfirst even though they can't see a single thing and have no idea where the ground is lol. But I wish I did, that horn is beautiful! Really sets the mood.
We have to admit, the way they were able to keep this all a secret until we the player found out. In this day and age, very impressive.
Anyone else jump into the chasm before they even had the paraglider? the first time I came across a chasm I assumed jumping in would just play a falling death animation and I would respawn at the surface cuz it looked so similar to the hole at the yiga clan base in botw that did exactly that.
So when I jumped in and the hole just kept going it blew my mind, I was not prepared for it to actually lead somewhere
yup! the first zelda quest took you to the castle so i tried jumping in to see what it was like, knowing i wouldn't survive the fall
I'm amazed at how so many people discovered it through the central hyrule chasm. As soon as I had my paraglider I went to the great plateau for nostalgia reasons and I discovered the depths there without an npc to greet me down there. I was so scared that I wouldn't be able to find my way back that I only looked around for a couple of minutes before realising that I am not able to go up through the chasm again.
My first depth dive was nowhere near lookout landing and i think i accidentally ended up down a well or cave. Had nearly died cause i deployed my glider a good time and sat in the dark for a minute to see what the heck was going on i wasnt even close to a root. I didnt expect to dive that deep the sound shook me to a unreal level and felt a dread i never felt before. Would relive this moment everytime 10/10
My first experience was a bit lame, but terrifying. I was conditioned at this point to go in wells gor resources, until i came to a well north east of the Tanagar canyon, and jumped into a chasm, and was terrified, but intrigued, then was blasted with a horn, in total darkness.
Mind you i didn't bother to read about bright blooms and didn't know what the lightroots did, so i traveled in the dark with only a torch until i realised i can interact with the llightroots.
11:29 I was *not* expecting to see Kwing honestly. It’s been years since I last watched any of his videos, but I could still recognise his voice anywhere
I remember seeing the trailers and thinking "Ok, Sky Islands look cool, but after seeing the underground opening section in the first part I feel like having a big underground map would be much better."
And then I come across this bottomless chasm, see some guy peering down into it, and of course decide to swan dive down into it right after he told me how dangerous it is. I saw the depths, and thought "HOLY SHIT IT'S REAL"
Great feeling, and a great game.
Honestly, I'm in awe of Nintendo testing team. We played this game for hundreds of hours and we haven't found a single flaw yet. With Depths, Sky, monsters, machines, everything. A great example of how to do it right, and how every day of waiting was worth it.
The feeling of falling into the Depths from the first time was incredible. Just pure fear and uncertainty. Especially because I didn’t enter the depths through the main part (because I followed the BOTW progression and went to Kakariko instead) so I went into it fully clueless
I love the effect the music has on people. It affects them before they realize what they heard, and it makes them pause.
I never noticed how if you dont dive it doesnt make the Brass Sounds. That shit sent a chill down my spine the first time I heard that
YESS THANK U FOR THIS ❤️
Gloom hands first encounter next? :3
During my first playthough, I Immediately went to Kakariko instead of going to Lookout Landing. I was so scared of this giant pit that everyone was talking about, saying how dangerous it is. Then later, I jumped into a random well, and it just went deeper, and deeper, and deeper... when I realized that they basically did a "dark world", it was honestly one of the few times in my life that I was so shocked, that my mouth was left gaping.
and yes, doing shrines was hard without the paraglider. I had thought they removed it to make this game different- they taught us to jump into water, after all. Then I made my way to Lookout Landing, and felt like an idiot.
these videos are such great ways to discover creators !!
first time I discovered the depth I was chasing a dragon and I saw that it spawnd from a big hole so I jumped in and kept falling and falling and I can still remember how I felt when the horns started playing. experiences like that makes this game a masterpiece
i love how almost everyone followed the path to enter the Depths. because i didn't. And i jumped into a random well once, not even knowing the Depths existed or what they were. I was absolutely freaking out
(and yes I dived in so I got triple jumpscared)
My first time in the depths was on the Plateau for the quest with the Goddess statue that’s actually a trader statue. So much confusion when I found out that the entrances all around Hyrule would lead there, and it took a while for me to find out I could start a quest with Robbie since I just avoided Lookout Landing for the majority of playing the game.
I really love these vids, I can see myself reacting exactly like they do when I first discovered all of these amazing features. It kinda makes me wanna forget it all and re-discover the whole game again. Luckily I still have a big piece of the game yet to complete. This game is gold. ("Yo, peacock feathers on a tree ???" killed me, btw.)
i nearly shit myself the first time i jumped into the depths... i already have a fear of sinkholes, the dark, and deep water (idk why it feels the same to me) i was terrified until i discovered the brightbloom seeds lol now i've spent a good deal of time just wandering around the depths
When I discovered the Depths, I found them by jumping into the well in East Hyrule Field/West of Twin Peaks. What was more amusing is that was also the first well I'd found, and as a result, I was awed by what I found and disappointed when I found the next well.
i absolutely love the BWAAAAH that plays when you dive into it, my first jump into lowrule was legit spooky
My first thought was "oh a small underground area"
After about 20 minutes it finally clicked,,, I'm rather new to Zelda games, have mercy
Took me a long time to go to the chasm because the red chasm is intimidating. I was doing crazy grind to clear the sky/land map. At 140hrs, I have still barely cleared this underground map lol.
I went to the shrine of resurrection to see what happened to it and then went into the depths from the chasm of the Oman Au shrine.
It was pitch black, I fell right next to one of those things where you find Zonai devices, and then I saw the Great Abandoned Central Mine. I got the auto build ability and then Master Kohga appeared, couldn’t defeat him because all my weapons broke.
I avoided jumping down for a while cause it didn't look like something you would want to jump in but once I saw a streamer do it I realized it was another map to explore
I got the same fear uncovering all the Lightroots as i'd get playing Silent Hill, just a fear of what lurks just beyond what you see
First time jumping into the North Akkala chasm and I dived straight into the open mouth of a Frox ☠️ I STILL haven’t entered that particular one again 😂😂
I love The Depths, felt very calming.
Yes...calming...sure 😨😱
I bet it's calming if you know how to use bright Bloom seeds and don't encounter any enemies straight away
First time I ended up down there I had no idea wtf I was and it was completely dark so I noped (teleported) out of there, took me a while (being send there by the Lookout Landing) before I jumped down again XD
I was surprised but also happy because I love to finish every shrine
The moment when we all expected so much from the depths... And didn't know that it hadnt that much to offer. :(
When i discovered the depths i screamed "THEY ELDEN RING'D US NO WAY"
I still remember when my ass shat the first time I fell into the chasms. That horn freaked me out and that feeling of empty and alone was unnerving.
I avoided going into the depths until I had to go into the lost woods to get to the deku tree. It wasn't til I beat the game until I finally decided to explore all of it. I'm seriously afraid of the dark lol
Best thing about TOTK are the caves, because they have no maps and are like labyrinths.
