What Your Favorite Way To TRAVEL In ZELDA Says About You! |Botw|

[@Korokii_]

Hey guys, Little_l here. Thanks for joining me today on this fine evening as we discuss the different methods of traveling in the 2017 Nintendo Switch and Wii U game titled "The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild". Join me as I list 10 different ways of traversing the vast lands of Hyrule and how they correlate with your public demeanor. Please note, this video is only for educational purposes along with some comedic tones thrown about here and there, with that out of the way, let's dive into this comprehensive discussion about Breath of the Wild's wide variety of travel methods.

I’d like to add one of my own favourites: floating down stream. It involves getting into a flowing body of water and then doing nothing. No swimming, no changing direction, just letting the river carry you and seeing where you end up.

[@ava4689]

I dont do this in BOTW, but in skyrim oh boy. Its the best way to travel. Yeet yourself down waterfalls until youre halfway across the map.

[@themindeclectic9821]

......down river?

[@justsomedampjothings]

yeah- see, I tried that, but I didn't move like AT ALL, so I got bored and fast-travelled

[@ColumbinaTheSingingHarbinger]

Another to add; if you glitch Sidon out of the Vah Rita fight, then bring him to huyrule castle and get the magnesia bookshelf, and put him behind it, you can make a car

[@FreakingAngryPirate]

That's the Dandy way, brother.

[@justkermitgettingchocked2409]

You were too real with the horse one. I would die to have my horse without a scratch.

[@Tai_Lung05]

Shut up

[@pigeonlegs7738]

I still remember when my first horse died. BOTW is my introduction to the Zelda franchise, and I had managed to avoid any and all spoilers. Basically, I went into the game blind. When I encountered my first guardian that could move, I was on horseback. I tried desperately to outrun it, but it ended up shooting and killing my horse. I didn't know you could revive horses at the time, and I was so distraught that I had to pause the game and take a break for like 20 minutes before going back to my switch and just staring at the screen, wondering what the heck I was supposed to do. Eventually one of my friends told me there was a way to revive horses, but I was still trying to do everything in the game without looking up stuff online, so I basically spent the rest of the game on a revenge quest seeking this so called "horse god." I eventually found them, and revived my first horse. Afterwards, I rode my horse back to the stable, where he has stayed in retirement ever since. I found a new horse that has better stats and I refuse to approach guardians on horseback now.

[@octokraken6359]

Horseback is so fun! To just travel and see the sites is so cool! Even if everything is discovered it’s still fun to just explore and see everything with your horse. I love my horse!

[@Abraxos_xWildflowers]

I got teary eyed and distraught when my horse died in the game. I bolted straight to Malanya to revive my beloved companion and gave it 10 apples to apologize for putting it in harms way 😭

[@raiknightshade3442]

I didn't even do that much, i straight up reset the game to the previous load where it hadn't died, then left it at the stable while i took out the monsters that killed it 😭

[@krussyarts]

You guys are so brave for going through that and surviving I straight up would never play again is something happened to Boreas the second (or any of the others) They mean so much to me..

[@maplepainttube8158]

Omg yes, my horse got killed in a bokoblin ambush and I literally stopped what I was doing, and stared going, “Dusty no!” Until I got attacked again and instantly went rage mode and murdered every single enemy in that ambush with no regards to how much damage I was taking. I then ran to the horse god fountain and revived him and cried and apologized and gave him apples

[@seigneurmayonnaise1209]

My favorite horse in my main 370 hours game died once... He was scared of a frog and jumped off a cliff. I seriously struggled to decide if I should resurrect a dumb horse or no

[@Alyx_Aizawa]

​​​@@maplepainttube8158that's word for word what happened to me with my 5 star speed horse, went past a group of boko riding horses and thought "I'm fast AF I should be fine" without taking into account Midna just tanked a lynel fire blast and that maybe she wouldn't be fine 😭

[@samsonic44844]

Fun fact: shield surfing on map drawn dirt paths will not decrease your shield durability. You can test this from the Hateno Observatory all the way down to the little bridge next to the Inn Edit; Bumps still damage your shield so you might want to avoid them and use a shield with less friction like the Mind's eye shield, the ancient shield or the Radiant shield.

[@melaniescribbles]

The horse part of the video is so true: I love travelling on horseback. Also, I still have my first horse, and it actually has a fun story behind it. Her name is Moonshade (at least, I headcanon her as a mare), and she was a grey dapple. One day, the Guardians killed her during a game over: Luckily, I had saved beforehand, so no real harm done, and I was so happy to just see that she was okay when I respawned. But needless to say: that moment practically turned me into the Doomslayer, only with Guardians as my preferred target instead of demons. I have the Ancient Armor set and master sword unlocked, so I just legit go out of my way to kill a Guardian whenever I see one. I mean, I would've frankly been more angry if they had actually forced me to take a trip to the fairy fountain where you can revive horses, and Moonshade is retired to the stable now. But still: what the Guardians did was unforgivable. Gotta wonder if they'll make an appearance in TOTK: I've recently pre-ordered it, and I'm so curious about what kind of enemies I'll get to terrorize.

[@lordnipsquirt]

I usually spend my time using wind bomb or BLSS but in my current deathless run I decided to walk the intended route for the first time to Zoras Domain and it was refreshing

[@cantthinkofaname2989]

[@ALunarLight]

Also you get to see the area below you and it's actually really pretty

[@xergame]

As a Breath of the Wild player, I too like watching Link suffer while he falls off Hebra Peak, He just stands up anyway.

[@nadiehtje10]

The nostalgia hit hard with the OoT intro 😭 I love riding around on Epona ❤️❤️ Shield surfing is a close second though But when I wanna just move on and continue without wasting too much time fast travel is the way I go

[@sparklefulpaladin]

My favorite way actually wasn't covered in this video! I love using Cryonis and Paraglider to cover large distances of water. You basically build a path of ice blocks using Cryonis and then jump and use the Paraglider to cover the distance between them.

[@koolkat1573]

Yes! I ice hopped to Eventide and I still do this when I don’t feel like swimming in rivers. Plus it helps with treasure hunting.

[@SuperGoker64]

1:08 Guilty as charged *XD* Fr, though, I once had a dream that I was being hunted down by some group, so I windbombed myself across a body of water to get away. It only helped for a little while.

[@TarsonTalon]

My favorite mode of travel is boat+metal chest+magnesis. Who needs a Korok leaf, when you can break the laws of physics?

[@Talon968]

I think it would be awesome if depending on when you fight Ganondorf changes his strength. For example he would be weaker with out a blood moon then he is with a blood moon. So if you fight him during a blood moon he will be stronger than if you fight him after the blood moon has passed. And if that is the case then I hope that it will also work the same way for all the Bosses and monsters in the game.

I use my horses a lot. I feel like I got called out, I really do still ride my first horse I ever stabled. She is 2 star speed, strength and stamina but I'm never letting that horse go.

I love traveling by horse just to look at the scenery and listen to the music. It's wonderful. Though, my starter horse, Spoon, definitely wasn't my favorite. I stumbled upon the white horse by accident after talking to the guy at the stable who wanted to see her. I didn't even know she was in the game! I named her Storm, after Princess Zelda's horse with the same color and gear.

[@anothergamer112]

For raft, you forgot that the island lobster shirt is paired with Hylian trousers dyed orange.

[@flyingfishz]

Okay, but I do all, just whichever I am feeling at the time, except horse, I don't ride my horse much because of a combination of not wanting my horse to get hurt in any way, and liking the master cycle

[@sledgen.]

Octo balloons: you're ridiculous!

[@cryolitegem]

You fuckin nailed me with the shield surf. Also about the climbing, it does become my favorite way to travel sometimes because instead of taking a path I just go to my destination in a straight line, mountains be damned.

[@dennistmennace]

So accurate!! My personal favorites were/are walking, paraglider, & teleporting

[@Quantum_Plus]

My 3 favorite ways to travel are the master cycle, walking, and boko bounce wind bombing. The master cycle is number one cuz when wearing the ancient greaves, I like to think that it's robot legs and the legs can turn into a bike like a generator rex type deal. Walking is my second favorite cuz the scenery of botw is STILL breathtaking, and boko bounce wind bombing is just wacky. Boko bounce wind bombing is taking btb (bullet time bounce) and using the wind bomb technique to gain distance and maintain altitude. The btb is just my preferred set up for say going from the top of death mountain to say the edge of gerudo town without hitting the ground

[@kepler_drew853]

Another two to add: whistle sprinting and moon jumping. They both handle rugged terrain pretty well, but are slow and require button mashing.

[@blacky_Ninja]

Sometimes i just get on my horse and aimlessly wander around the paths. I love horse riding. It‘s so relaxing and since the horse follows the paths on it‘s own you can just lean back and enjoy the scenery. I still had my first horse for a long time, but sadly i some day farmed for the fastest horses and accidentally freed it, so no first horse for me anymore. :( I do enjoy shield surfing very much, though i only do that as a hobby in between, not to get around. And yeah, gliding is a no brainer. Best and most efficient „normal“ travel method ever in my opinion.

[@via3600]

I hate the snowy areas but I absolutely do surf EVERYWHERE

[@Rufus52]

Yes i love horse travel.. and Yes I love that Game, the second one showed.. .My very first zelda game and the best game ever.

[@Tacomuncher950]

Man I’ve been playing the game for so long and still can’t figure out how to do stasis launch😂

[@snailofkale]

shield surfing is insanely fun. legitimately want some kind of “surfshield” that’s faster, more efficient on flat ground, and doesn’t break from too much surfing (only enemies) in totk it would fulfill all my dreams

[@TheyCallMeIce]

I like the paraglider because it can be more easily used than a horse, while being faster and more stamina efficient than running, and of course the map looks amazing from above.

[@Vivigreeny25]

Horses are my favourite, just because I like the sound their hooves make and I think they’re cute, but I also just like how it feels, and it gives me the thrill of exploring the map AND it’s not AGONIZINGLY SLOW like walking is! :)

[@rachelforrer9167]

I love climbing in this game so much, i have climbed the tallest mountains and pillars just to find that there wasnt a korok seed there and then i use it as a lookout to find things

[@GVKYU]

Could you do a “What your favorite species in Hyrule says about you?”

[@SotiCoto]

I have a sick fascination with jumping off my Master Cycle into a Wind Bomb. It has become my preferred way to launch into a WB-Glide without having a ledge to jump off. Just summon the bike, climb on, pick up some speed, jump into the air, then WB.

[@TrainWreckYT]

My top 3 are shield surfing, gliding and... watching link suffer.

[@Whofan06]

Not only do I ride the same horse I got at Dueling Peaks when they teach you how to catch horses, every time I replay the game I search that area for the exact same blue horse with a white nose and dark feet.

[@prins-henrik1530]

Personally, I travel by horse. I also specifically got a horse with top tier stats and the same look as the one Link rides in memory cutscenes.

[@yann1922]

I really enjoy using horses, because I like to role-play, like being an adventurer and moving around in Hyrule like other NPC You can move slowly, looking at the landscape, going fast or at a medium pace, it is however you want it to be, you can even let your horse by himself as he will follow the path (which is an amazing feature) unless you have a joicon drift on both stick just like me so you have to manually move the character and the camera or else it will be a nightmare... I think I might start a new file over my main file to do a "No Teleportation" challenge and only using horses/walking/paraglider and no glitches (do people already did challenge like that ? All I can find is basic run or using only one type of equipment)

[@kitkatboard]

I tried a "no fast travel" causal run. Then fell of a cliff, survived, with only one wheel of stamina and no Revali's Gale. That's the moment I said "fuck this". Did the Tarrey Town quest like this though. It was fun. Long and sometimes frustrating but very gratifying.

[@mintconscious]

as a person who's favorite way to travel is paragliding, i haven't upgraded my stamina at all yet lol

[@Da_TboneLife]

You forgot, whistle sprint. I use that constantly, I can run up steep slopes and cheat my way up difficult inclines.

[@Silverheart575]

Windbombing and shield surfing for the win. Once I figured out how to wind bomb and got good at it, it became my main form of travel. I only learned to do it a few months ago.

[@duckygin]

I love my little horse, in fact I parked him next to my house and removed the ancient gear to avoid having him teleported. BUT I just love flying everywhere with my broom broom

[@JustSomeDude42]

As an avid walker in every game, it is not about exploration, let me tell you. It is about satisfying that hoarder mentality and collecting EVERYTHING. To the point you specifically do so in sneak buff so the lizards and bugs don’t run away from you doing a fly by.

[@Thephoenixofstories]

0:30 aha yeah you see “Walking” is “Slightly” tilting the joystick, jogging is fully and running is while holding B

[@AikoShi1]

If I have an upgraded zora armor set, swimming is my absolute favorite, I love the waterfalls in the faron region, it's so pretty out there

[@chadnorris8257]

Whether I walk or ride depends heavily on what region I'm in. Some areas have so many places you can't really go offroad with a horse on that it's easier to just walk and climb around. Meanwhile some areas have so much flat open area that riding is better. Speeding around on a raft with a korok leaf is a lot of fun.

[@tn2255]

The horse one is accurate for me 😅 but I can't help it. The horse is my friend 🤣🤣

[@AlexMartinez-nn2cm]

i played three far cry games before getting into zelda so the minute i learned i could glide it became my fave travel method instantly

[@charsage1036]

Personally for me horse particularly the 5 star speed horse that thing is legit one of the first things i get on new playthrough for the raw speed if i need to get destination or how the horse gives easy bullet time with basically no set up combine that with ancient bridle and saddle two easy to get items you are bloody set for traveling and have a great tool for starting combat.

[@The_Gamer1567]

When I got the master cycle I spawned my horse and shot 5 bomb arrows at it and watched it die. Then hopped on the master cycle and drove to the horse fairy. I went and revived him. I don’t know why I did that. I never used my horse again after I revived it.

[@bradl.602]

Okay guys, you *CAN* climb in the rain! C'mon, I _know_ y'all have all 3 stamina wheels! Wear the climbing set or royal set for that leaping stamina reduction bonus, climb a few "steps" up, time a jump, and there you go! You'll slide down, but only as much as you leapt and any ground you made prior to the leap you'll keep! It still is longer and takes more stamina than usual, but it's not lile climbing becomes literally impossible.

[@Emmolosko]

the reason why I like riding horses in botw/totk is because it makes me feel safe from having to deal with monsters and I could just flee away fast easily.

[@CopperYeen]

I recently started playing master mode and right after I finished the great plateau, I did not go to impa or at least visit the dueling peaks stable, no, I went to get the fastest horse there is. I took a huge detour though and instead of just walking across that Rhoam mountain I visited the Rito and walked all across Hebra because I thought the good horses were somewhere there. No. They're on that goddamn mountain I could've just crossed to get to the next stable. It was only after all that that I went to impa and visited Hateno, or, well, get the shrine there. Because my next goal was to get the ancient horse gear. I might not exactly be far story-wise, but at least my horse looks absolutely sick now. It's that one black horse with the light blue mane.

[@deaconaligood]

I use the Master Cycle Zero to have hilarious chases with guardians at Hyrule Castle since I just love torturing them since when I first encountered them they killed me like 800 bazillion times

[@WestonEvans]

Forgot whistle sprinting. “Definitely a speedrunner” And I think there’s a difference between walking (enjoy the little things in BOTW) and running (Favorite boots are sand and snow/ all your food is haste up x3) Also seal surfing, Giant horse and Stalfos horse And of course: all of the above! (A true gentleman’s way to BOTW)

Running everywhere: you're impatient and want to get everywhere quick, but you can't figure out how glitch the game so you still have to run everywhere

[@chiragmidha2878]

I think a casual player is more likely to do a stasis launch than a wind bomb or bls. Or maybe they are too worried about durability, hording weapons can get rough sometimes in botw

[@justyourfriendlyneighborho903]

Imo wind bomb is more convenient but yeah true stasis launch is more straightforward

[@idiotically-everything]

I walk around the map because I am afraid of my horses getting hurt. Usually when I need to get past something dangerous like a lynel, I just hop on a wild horse
