I beat the entire game without realizing that you can use master hand on the flux constructs, and yet Arin Hanson Junior over here figures it out immediately. Someone should euthanize me.
it took me 5-10 of them for me to realized. One of the titan souls-type cubes I saw for the second or third time and thought... "That looks like I could grab it." I'd just been titan-souls-ing them the whole time, shooting precise arrows.
The fusion stuff was slightly irritating to have to perform every time, but overall I think it was a great change from BotW. In TotK the ingredients tab is really the weapons tab. The weapons tab is more like a weapon handle tab, for which quality/tier don't matter as much, and they're way easier to come by. So now you basically have unlimited weapons at all times, depending on how many materials you've hoarded. You'll always have a bunch of construct horns or bokoblin horns at the very least.
thats a fun way to think about it, i found the system actually encouraged me to go out of my way to hunt more difficult monsters so i could get cooler weapons. in botw i avoided almost everything late game because it was pointless to waste my durability for some monster parts. definitely a good change
I do understand his issues with the menuing, half the gameplay if you want to use all the mechanics properly is spent paused, fusing arrows, selecting materials to drop, swapping abilities… this is an improvement to botw but it’s super rough because of how busy they made it. idk what he means about the controls tho (combat is definitely bad but not because the controls are bad, because all you do is mash attack button with different fused weapons)
The nintendo hate in this video is amazing. I love it. I love and hate thing about Nintendo but their copyright law team being scummy ruins any sort of good I care about.
He also loves talking about how little they changed from the first game as if they personally watched his critiques and only cared about those opinions, not just "game sold well, do the same again".
@@ana.alliterative Frankly, for a game of its size and quality, BoTW ran incredibly well. At this point, I don't think it's the game's fault, but rather the console that it's on.
"We got all the 10/10s, why would we change anything?" This is the problem with so many sequels. TOTK, GoW Ragnarok, Spiderman 2, they're all just glorified level packs with worse writing.
Love how in this comment section the best argument against Joe’s live, unedited, stream-of-consciousness impressions, is “why does he express his opinions like that” and/or “he’s gone woke”-the latter of which was stated by a literal bigot, somehow surprisingly (miragebarrage guy). It must be a hard time to be a vocal Nintendo fan (as opposed to a reasonable, normal, quiet one), when you have people who believe “there are only two genders” on the front lines against “criticism” of a damn kid’s game. Especially now, over a year later, after the honeymoon has ended twice over, when every literate fan capable of expressing concisely why ToTK fails has done so, to great success.
His struggle in combat would be solved if he just used the fuse ability or figured out some weapons are more sturdy and better for fusion. Hope he does a review of this game because I would love to hear his criticism and what he loved. Game is probably one of if not my favorite zelda game but I understand why many are frustrated by it
I dont understand his vomplaint with the fuse ability. You press a button and thats it. Also he insisted that it didn't add much while never being creative with materials
@@Taveren Or you can view any review as a persons opinion rather than objective truth. I don't hate the durability system, I rarely run out of weapons, yet a lot of people seem to.
The amount of butthurt nintendo fanboys in these comments complaining about Joe and his critique of the game is hilarious. This game sucks. It's just more minecraft bullshit. Zelda is supposed to be an adventure game. This isn't one. This is just a $70 DLC for BOTW, which was a good adventure game.
I still dont get why people dislike the durability system. I rarely ever ran out of weapons and every time they do break its pretty satisfying to see a monster just fly away after the weapon shatters or dying after a spear explodes in their face. I agree chests pretty much still suck ass though but hey killing monsters gives monster parts which is a plus now because of fuse. This game is miles better than BotW though, absolute blast.
you basically described the only 1 out of 6 points when he argued for/against the weapon breaking system in his botw video. he agrees with you on that single point, and then lists 5 more that are against it. it starts at 1:28:48 in "Breath of the Wild - Not Enough Zelda" now that totk is out i can even say that fusing has only made this problem worse, because in botw you'd kill an enemy then take their weapon, simple. in totk you kill an enemy, you then must have an unfused weapon, equip that weapon, go over the material, fiddle with the controls to select that material, fuse it, and then you can actually use the "dropped" weapon. totk made things even worse
@@saunshilu A problem which you never stated because I doubt you could get those two neurons of yours together to even put forth a coherent argument for why the durability system is bad. I see this shitty toddler opinion everywhere and it's always complete garbage because this system seems to have filtered fucking everyone that plays cod of duty from it.
You're not being honest until you offend a Nintendo fanboy. Anything less than glowing praise is a direct attack on them & everything they stand for. It's hilarious.
They could be retrying the game to see if it clicks better for them now with a better mindset, it could be because the game is bad to the point of comedy and they want to show it off, or it could be as a palette cleanser to help them appreciate other better designed titles, among a myriad of other reasons.
@@Adoochi I don't think whining the entire time is a good indication of a "better mindset" unless Joe's humour comes from whining then I question the sanity of his fans then..
@@vivid8979 I never said anything like that. OP was asking about why people play games they hate, so I was listing off some reasons why. Joe tends to be vocally critical during streams, likely because people expect him to be because of the main channel videos. Think of it like Mystery Science Theater 3000; people like to watch others riff on things, and Joe tends to play into that with his critic persona. Sometimes it can be a bit much though, I understand.
@@Adoochi So his content of being a "critique" is just a result of his persona and not because he wants to make content based on how he really look on things?? Or he does it 50% of the time based on his mood?? Well that made it worse.... I know that people on RUclips uses a persona to gain audience and such but when you are making a critique on something (Which is his main Content) it should be true and void of that Persona since it'll come out as a sarcasm.... Well it became the META in gaming to nitpick on popular games anyway so I can understand the appeal..
@@vivid8979 Alright, look, I'm not him and I don't want to put words into his mouth so I'll say it how I view it. Joe makes videos based upon what he finds interesting, whether he loves it or hates it, he wants to give the game a critical look. When writing videos, naturally he assumes a persona. A persona in this context meaning a subconscious change in how someone speaks and acts to specific people. Y'know how you act a bit differently depending on who you're speaking to? Same thing, just in this case he's writing and recording a video meant for the public (and more specifically his subscribers) to see instead of directly speaking to someone. There's nothing inherently wrong with using a persona (we all do on a daily basis), so long as that persona still accurately represents how you honestly feel. All that being said, Joe's videos tend to go to (literal) great lengths to try and make sure he gets his opinions across with evidence to back them up. Take for example his Mario Odyssey video. Regardless of what you think of the game or the video, it's clear that Joe is passionate on his opinion that the majority of the moons are bad, has put a lot of thought into said opinion, and made like an hour long section dedicated to trying to support it. Joe, to me, is the antithesis of what you say; the way he acts in his videos is because he genuinely believes in what he's saying, not because he's trying to get easy clicks for being a contrarian.
I...uh...oh boy, Like, I know Joe is having fun a good amount, But he just, I dunno, doesn't have a filter I guess? Like, it seems he literally cannot stop from repeating himself over and over again when one thing (or the same thing) keeps annoying him. I can understanding getting fed up with games (I get fed up with many games), so I don't want to say that he "hates the game", but it almost feels like that at times. I like to watch livestreams that are chill, but with his repeated criticizing of the game that gets more and more difficult to do. Maybe it's just the way he says it, I dunno. At some point it almost feels like he's forcing himself to play it, like it's an obligation (he's a game reviewer, so I get that it's literally his job. But he does have the choice to decide which games he streams and covers on his channel. A game reviewer doesn't have to review everything, or even every popular game). And like, I myself got burnt out on the game after only like 50 hours, so I can sympathize not wanting to play. But that's not what is happening with Joe. Like, Joe buddy, you can just not play it if it pains you that much. (Is funny in a way, when he responded at the beginning that the whole playthrough wasn't going to be criticizing, and sure it's not, but he never really gets to that point of getting used to the game. The combat is almost a dealbreaker for him it feels like. Which, I'm only another anecdote, but it didn't seem remotely all that bad like he makes it out to be. But yadda yadda, opinions are subjective and all that) (Botw broke him lol. That's the real issue here) (Penny Parker of Snapcube had a much better attitude imo, though tbf I more often than not enjoy watching Joe play games)
Did Joe actually say that you’re a bad person if you play hogwarts legacy? Because if so, then that is a bigger L take than his elden ring boss critique.

Istg we don't deserve Joseph anderson highlight channels, thank u so much for making these so fast 😭🙏
❤❤
I love 1:03:10 because it showcases how broken flurry rushes are and I wonder what his reaction would’ve been if he made it to ganon
27:43 I never thought I'd see a Jerma moment from Joe. what an absolute clown
in this video joe doesnt understand the usages of fuse properly and suffers for it
I do love how these Joe highlight content isnt that popular but still gets made. Thank you! I do think Joes streaming will get more popular one day so these videos will blow up one day!
38:45 this was the best chat-streamer interaction ever
I beat the entire game without realizing that you can use master hand on the flux constructs, and yet Arin Hanson Junior over here figures it out immediately. Someone should euthanize me.
but you get style points
like not using cryonis against vah ruta
it took me 5-10 of them for me to realized. One of the titan souls-type cubes I saw for the second or third time and thought... "That looks like I could grab it."
I'd just been titan-souls-ing them the whole time, shooting precise arrows.
YOU CAN WHAT
Shouldnt call him Arin Hanson junior, Joseph Anderson would never shout the N word to people from his car
@LmaoZeroGN Not even if a make a wish kid's request was to have him shout the N word at him out of a car? Not even then?
The fkn blunt bit kills me every time it’s so funny
that ending music jump scared me
thank you for the edit tho
sorry, it was because of goatse
@@avarisi i didn't have goatse :(
Even Hellen Keller could get a Flurry Rush

The Comedy Central Roast of TotK
I LOVE "my weeb in the chat" reply lmao
Made me laugh
I have no idea how he managed to make the game look that bad every other play through looked fine his switch is just fucked
The fusion stuff was slightly irritating to have to perform every time, but overall I think it was a great change from BotW.
In TotK the ingredients tab is really the weapons tab. The weapons tab is more like a weapon handle tab, for which quality/tier don't matter as much, and they're way easier to come by.
So now you basically have unlimited weapons at all times, depending on how many materials you've hoarded. You'll always have a bunch of construct horns or bokoblin horns at the very least.
thats a fun way to think about it, i found the system actually encouraged me to go out of my way to hunt more difficult monsters so i could get cooler weapons. in botw i avoided almost everything late game because it was pointless to waste my durability for some monster parts. definitely a good change
He's a gift really. This video was hilarious
Could we please get a supercut of joe playing life is strange 2?
I would watch this the full time
I do understand his issues with the menuing, half the gameplay if you want to use all the mechanics properly is spent paused, fusing arrows, selecting materials to drop, swapping abilities… this is an improvement to botw but it’s super rough because of how busy they made it. idk what he means about the controls tho (combat is definitely bad but not because the controls are bad, because all you do is mash attack button with different fused weapons)
Never played a Zelda since gameboy color. Didnt knew he turns into a soul reaver at this one
Joe should just play banjo kazooie nuts and bolts, its basically just the good bit of breath of the wild
Totk*
can someone explain to me how the +2/-2 joke from Jerma's Kane and Lynch Stream made it to Joe's community?
"MAGIC!" -Merasmus
Haven’t watched Jerma but +2 is also in Northernlion’s community, seems to have spread far and wide.
it's fun when he suffers
9:50 True and BASED. Also 29:40 proved to me that never taking any of his reviews seriously is a smart mans choice.
I wanna go back in time and watch how salty Joe is about playing MM for the first time.
i am not even a nintendo fan but god damn this was whiny baby energy lmao
Did you or are you going to do a highlights for the second stream?
I feel bad asking again but is there a chatless version of this? I've been devouring all your highlights, they're top tier
Out of curiosity, why do you want a version without chat on screen?
I know people love seeing chat but, I'm more interested in what the streamer has to say than anything else. @@Bodgie7878
The channel archivist uploads chatless joe vods.
he made it his personal mission to piss off that one guy in chat
In his defense, that guy in chat always deserves it for being a Nintendo fan.
on a scale of (a banana to steven seagals 4th wife) how much botw is there in this video
The nintendo hate in this video is amazing. I love it. I love and hate thing about Nintendo but their copyright law team being scummy ruins any sort of good I care about.
As much as I love Joseph Anderson, he really based a *lot* of his jokes in this around the game running poorly while it was clearly running just fine.
He also loves talking about how little they changed from the first game as if they personally watched his critiques and only cared about those opinions, not just "game sold well, do the same again".
@@Joeggurnaut546 well of course hes gonna stand by his opinions, its... him.
@@Joeggurnaut546those were valid critiques that he made about BotW, and observations many other people made for themselves when they played totk.
