I'm the strange person who actually would've liked the health scanner, though I feel that, with that, upgrades should've been available that allowed you to swap it between modes-- not unlike swapping the scanner from shrines to maybe enemies-- and allow a mode where, rather than seeing health, it would show a radial bar as to how far your current sound would travel, and the vision cone of enemies.

[@c.d.dailey8013]

I learned that the hard way. My first playthrough I did all the memories before I got the tunic. My second playthrough I did just one memory and got the tunic. The tunic is so helpful for tracking opponent health. It is also in the promotional images for Breath of the Wild. I usually wear a combo of the blue tunic with regular hylean pants. I don't wear a hat. That is a cool look for Link. I only switch out if I am in extreme temperatures or if I am fighting special kinds of enemies.

I loved the video--quite concise and informative! I also thought of another potential reason this health sensor ability was moved rather than taken out of the game entirely: it helps keep the Champion's Tunic relevant in a game filled to bursting with various stat-boosting outfits. If it didn't have some special property besides being on the box, most players would likely never wear the tunic at all and opt for attack/defense or environmental outfits instead.

[@TheBreadPirate]

1:16 they also removed the horse AI. They were supposed to be smart enough that you could ride without having to worry about falling off a cliff or running into a tree.

[@darkidesigns6810]

this wasn't removed. The horse follows paths and won't run over the edge of cliffs. it will stop.

@@darkidesigns6810 when they first talked about the horse AI (Game Awards 2014, IIR) it was supposed to be more than just path following. So, yeah, I was mostly joking about the suicidal horse quote but I do remember them saying the horses would have behaviors that keep them from getting hung up on trees, small rocks, and that if you aimed a horse straight at a rock wall it would turn well before it would need to rear up because even well trained horses tend not to want to walk into solid objects.

[@ROBOT-FACE]

@@TheBreadPirate I sometimes wonder if Malanya (horse fairy) was created after they decided that path following was a complicated enough horse behavior...

[@Telogor]

The eagle vision in the new Assassin's Creed seems like a good system IMO. I haven't played the games, but if stealth is a central mechanic to the game, there should be a focus on scouting out the enemy positions and planning your infiltration. This mechanic obviously isn't what you'd want for a non-stealth RPG like Zelda, but then again, almost none of the new mechanics in BotW belong in a Zelda game either.

[@Dovahkiin914]

I’d argue otherwise about the new mechanics in BOTW. Nothing is more Zelda than tools used for solving puzzles, assuming you’re referring to the Runes. Though, the combat mechanics I could see where you’re coming from.

[@ASquared544]

I would honestly like this mechanic to return in Breath of the Wild 2 in some way tbh. Maybe improved upon a bit but I like the idea of being able to use the slate to scan an enemy and learn how to approach them. Keeping it optional is probably for the best but maybe they could inform you about your enemies line of sight and their immediate scouting route (like an arrow pointing where they’re going to go on the ground).

[@cewla3348]

still, it would give a huge buff to, instead of going out and PLAYING THE VIDEO GAME, sitting and looking at arrows. It isn't RTS, damnit!

[@BanltBandit]

It’s kinda like the ability Tattle in The Thousand Year Door, where you can use it to find the exact hit points of enemies at the cost of a turn. That function also gets replaced by an endgame item much like the Champion’s Tunic would have here.

[@TheBreadPirate]

In an RPG that makes a lot of sense! Paper Mario 64 was the same (sort of) with the Goomba companion. Although I think he was just there to give advice, not to share hitpoints.

[@Buglin_Burger7878]

End... game... item? You could get the Peekaboo Badge almost at the very start of the game. The trade off is badges were much more powerful and scanning an enemy once always told it. It isn't really ever replaced as in long boss fights that extra BP will keep you alive or give you an edge... but since you're not needing to manage exact damage in boss fights this can be completely ignored there.

The completionist mindset is absolutely a great point. Sure, this red bokoblin has 13 hit points, but who's to say these other two red bokoblins _also_ have 13 hit points? And the next encounter, will they all have 13 hit points again? Obviously yes, but when you're in a must scout all the things mentality it can be a bit hard to break the habit. Moving the sensor to the champion's tunic was for the best.

I feel like a better way they could have done it would have been if you've scanned the enemy for the compendium, then you'll see the health when you zoom in on them. That way you're not doing it every time for enemies you've seen hundreds of times

[@Crispierbug]

It would of been useful if you scanned like a single red bokoblin and now you automatically see the hp of every red bokokoblin you came across, or if monster's of the same variation could have different health values, like you see 2 silver ones and the second one had 20% more hp.

[@garchomp7850]

Another reason is They probably removed it because they wanted the champions tunic to exist and for there to be a little more point in its existence other than having good defense, and making it worth it to follow the impa memory quest line Edit: also the tunic tends to make it easier to see where enemies are, their health bars seem to appear from farther away

This reminds me a lot of the scan mechanic in Metroid. It would've been so much more interesting if this was the way to obtain enemy data for the Compendium. Say, you see a Moblin somewhere and think that's new and looks tough, let's scan it. And bam, you get to know everything about a Moblin. This feature had much potential. It could've shown not just HP but also Attack power too. Yeah, it's still janky but I think with less scaning time it could've been really fun. And not just for enemies but for all the entries in the compendium as well. Including something like the gems and stuff.

[@larkasmr1128]

I kind of want to vouch for the whole controlling a separate bird from you to scout out areas because I LOVED the owl in far cry primal. Maybe it was different because you could attack with the owl, send down certain bombs or even send your beast to go attack the enemies the owl was looking at, So you could get a head start on knocking out the enemies without alerting them to your actual position. I'd also use it to scout hundreds of feet in front of me, Huge entire encampments, And the nearby enemy sensor you mentioned in assassins creed wouldn't work for that. It's kind of interesting you could never really say a certain mechanic is bad or good because there's probably at least one person who likes it. But also you've mentioned time stopping and in far cry primal while you were using owl it was mostly normal time until you click button that was like hunter view or something and that slowed down time. So maybe it was just implemented better?

I believe the sensor could very easily work if you extend the hitbox the second it shines on an enemy, like with the bat if you just follow its general direction it should tell you the health, then if you do it enough times it should tell you the health of every single enemy of that type permanently. So like with bokoblins you need to do it 10 times, with moblins only 5, with bats 10, hinoxes only 2 or 3, and same as hinox for any other mini-boss, with the actual boss enemies only needing to do it once. I think it would've been cool to have a way to reveal all the enemies health, but I also think it would've been cool to have the other clothing effects naturally too some way, maybe through a perk system or some kind of additional challenge like "Kill 5 of X type enemy" to unlock those effects permanently. Like imagine getting to permanently have the faster climbing, it would be so cool and give the game another avenue to progression that is seriously lacking in it. But they'd probably sooner shoot Miyamoto than add progression features into the game.

how has this guy only got 5k subs? this is awesome!

[@TheBreadPirate]

Thank you!

The best games that do this give you some added value as a result. Even Assassin’s Creed is at least letting you tag enemies to keep track of them (though it is weird that they actively made it worse). Games like Ghost Recon that allow you to scope and tag with a drone, and then have everyone coordinate fire, or Watch Dogs letting you hack stuff with a drone (wait, are these all Ubisoft?) all do something more than “stop and look”

Hearing about the eagle vision criticism, really makes me want to play with my sister. We work really well together for that kind of coop if one is the assassin and the other the eagle

[@TheBreadPirate]

ooo! That's a fun way to play actually.

[@FlynnAlek]

Your channel is shockingly good for only having 20k subs. I know you’ll make it to 500k, my man. 🙃

It worked in metal gear. They also left in the health bars without requiring the scan but added the specific numbers to the tunic and stuff.

[@eljaminlatour6633]

I never knew that ability existed in the Sheikah Slate, probably because many people didn't mentioned it and I never knew that ability was in the Champion's Tunic, because when I start seeing HP numbers I never knew how that happened.

[@tinycatfriend]

this is so cool to learn! it was a great idea and implementing it makes total sense, but i'm VERY glad it was cut. i'm not a fan of motion controls, and this would have drove me nuts! now i wear the tunic enough that i have most enemy hp memorized, or at least a general idea of their difficulty. and i think bomb arrows were what taught me how to scout out an area before diving in, actually. getting frustrated by dying over and over, and then seeing arrow go BOOM made the connection clear that sometimes you gotta plan! not sure if that was the dev's intention, but it did the job for my minmaxer brain

[@cardboardleaf7971]

First video I've watched from you- I am most certainly sticking, matey. YARHAR FOREVER!

[@matteopiscitello1606]

I played this game for four years and I still didn't have any clue on this feature existing... Breath of the wild never stops surprising me

[@rosetony4990]

Skyward sword is one of my favorite zeldas so it's good to finally see someone who liked it

[@saltyermilk8995]

Shleka slate: I have a semi good mechanic The mechanic after the release: I have decided I want to die

[@UnderOATH-_777_-]

"The legend of rain at inconvenient times" LOL

[@gtafanman]

Blaming motion control though is pointless seeing you can turn it off. I have mine set to off. Though. Having it on the champions tunic is better. At the same time. It would be nice to have both, for those who don't always want to use the tunic. Using the sensor with motion control off would be super easy.

[@chompythebeast]

Even if the mechanic hadn't been janky, it seems like a waste of time that only serves to psych the player out. Just get in there and find out how many slashes it'll take to kill em by counting your slashes! Also, I appreciate your candor about your earlier hype draft for this script. I get a little weary of the way some content creators like to blow their own horn or bury the lede. For the record, however, this vid would have been worth a modicum of such hype, as it was pretty interesting. That's a Subscribe from me!

[@PaperDove]

This was a great and informative video. A lot of game info vids I watch are clickbait but this was great!

[@TheBreadPirate]

Thanks Just!

[@vicentepelegrini8582]

Also giving that unique (and helpful) ability to the champion's tunic make it a desirable item you want to wear all the time, making the player to keep the character design as intended probably through the entire game instead of trying to beat Ganon with the Nintendo t-shirt from that chest
