It’d be nice to pair the aesthetic of the Zonai hero with different pieces of armor, though I understand why that’s not the case. My one gripe is that it’s one single item. It looks amazing, and comes with some of the best defenses in the game. Greeting me with much enthusiasm was a lone Zonai chest, and inside, a mysterious piece of armor. Realizing there was probably something else, I made my way back. So relieved to have, after 190 hours, completed all the Shrines, and eager to finally see what purpose the top of the Temple of Time served, I ascended to the top - and too close to the sun, I might say.

Still, I appreciated it.Īs it would turn out, I missed something. The lore of the Great Sky Island was a nice touch, and came with a beautiful panning shot of the sky, but the purpose of the island was pretty self explanatory early in the game.

The cloth is beautiful, and I absolutely loved the extra challenge, but it felt underwhelming. Initially, I was underwhelmed by the reward, thinking it was only the Paraglider cloth. I intentionally put off a dungeon in hopes of a reward I’d be able to make good use of, rather than getting it and having nothing left to do but the final fight. In fact, I only recently completed my last Shrine, and I still have a decent chunk of story left to tackle.

It was daunting, and at times I considered giving in and finishing the game, but I couldn’t. With Tears of the Kingdom, I am the latter. Many likely put off completing all the Shrines for a later date, but some certainly chose to power through before the final fight.
