ZUCast Episode 24: Tears of the Kingdom Gameplay Roundtable

Happy Tears of the Kingdom release! With the game just reaching a month's time in our hands we wanted to discuss what we've enjoyed about the game and what fascinating directions it has taken our adventures. Instead of breaking it up into specific segments and hosts, our contributors instead gathered around our mics for a roundtable discussion. We specifically avoided all plot-relevant discussions, so no spoilers beyond the most general locations and activities you can expect in this game. Participants - Connor, Cody, Elias, Josh Howdy! 0:00 - 3:44 What's it like returning to this Hyrule? 3:45 - 10:07 What general area have you enjoyed exploring the most? 10:08 - 18:31 "Hand"-y new abilities 18:32 - 19:57 A side discussion about death and dying 19:58 - 23:10 Fusion 23:11 - 27:10 Ultrahand and Ridiculous Builds 27:11 - 33:07 Puzzles and Encounters 33:08 - 39:00 Recall 39:01 - 42:32 Ascend 42:33 - 45:27 Exploration 45:28 - 48:36 Shrines 48:37 - 51:16 Thanks for Listening! 51:17 - 53:02 If you found us through Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or another podcatcher, then I encourage you to check out our website, zeldauniverse.net; we publish Legend of Zelda– and Nintendo-related news, exclusive editorial content and features, game guides, and more.
