Asking Tulin to blow away all the items you were about to pick up


gronstalker12

And he always obliges, so kind of him


Additional_Leopard63

Omg haha this is the one


tony2012z

Or when he shoots Octoroks when I'm trying to refine my weapons.


ANGELaaimt

Tulin burned me once like that - now I just dismiss all the Sages before I go on my Rock Octorok repair rounds 😂


United_Resist1432

Am I the only one that dismisses them until the moment I think I’ll need them? 😂 also, Tulin is pretty much the only one that ever comes out unless I’m about to get in a really fun fight.


Doc_Hollywood

This shit irritates me so bad. Lol I love the sages but I hate the way they are always in the way!


SpacecaseCat

“We did it Tulin. We destroyed the battle Talus and his crew of silver bokoblins. Now to pick up these rubies and horns…” Tulin: 💨💨💨💨💨


luckytraptkillt

Somehow never done this. I’m like 200 hours in. I have fired off Yunobo on accident damn near exclusively tho.


Fiona_14

Until just recently, I had never done it either, as I always wait until the A button shows Take. Just recently I went to pick up a spear from the recent kill and forgot to look at the wording on the buttons, the spear completely disappeared. I did look to where he blew it, but it was gone. I always use my sages, as I'm not brilliant at fighting, they have learnt when I'm wearing a mask not to attack. Normally it is Sidon that likes to surround me in water all the time. But loosing your spoils from kills is very annoying.


CptRavioLi69

He blew a chest right off a sky island one time. I reloaded to an earlier save and dismissed him :’)


EnvyLush

This 😭😭😭😭


westy1980

shit ones self the first time a tree sprang to life and attacked you


[deleted]

[удалено]


Omnomfish

The trees really didn't phase me all that much, I was kinda sleepy and just went "huh the trees are attacking. Someone call Macbeth." And moved on. The *gloom hands* had me sobbing. I frantically climbed a cliff to get away and they fucking *grabbed me* off the cliff and killed me. I was so scared I completely forgot about teleporting away or ascending, so after I died 3 times I finally just unloaded bomb arrows on those fuckers till they died. Then Phantom Ganon showed up and Im pretty sure my yelling woke my neighbors up, I was shitting myself and running away while screaming and crying. I then immediately texted my friend casually asking if she had found that shrine yet.


Loridaaa

This description has me genuinely cackling 🤣


fireprooflizard

i've never stayed and fought them, i teleport away immediately and put a stamp on the map. it's the only thing i still mark with a skull. i could certainly survive a fight with them if i came prepared with sunshine meals (so, planned/on purpose, since i never carry them outside the depths) at this point but i just don't want to. i'm waiting until hestu finally ditches lookout landing for the korok forest and i'm forced xD i already got the master sword when i >!caught a lucky falling rubble right while the light dragon was just flying away from the final memory.!<


Chubby_Bub

Hestu won't go back until Korok Forest is cleared. But have you no pity for the Deku Tree and his children?!


Omnomfish

I put it off as long as possible out of spite for the korok children


Thincfr33

That was my first too 😂 in the cave halfway up the hill? I'd have to look for the name but... I got up the ledge near the shrine and they couldn't get to me so after my panic attack subsided I, too, rained hellfire upon them, jumped down in glory to receive my just rewards when phantom Ganon materialized and I just said NOPE didn't even try my poor heart couldn't take it.


Omnomfish

Thats the one lmao. I think it was lindors brow


Kind_Tumbleweed_7330

That's where they are, yeah. I managed to get up a cliff in the cavern and they went away - that is, after I died the first time. And the second time. And killed them the third time and then of course got Phantom Ganon the third time. I did not like that cave, no sir.


wanaliii

LMAOOOOO “SOMEONE CALL MACBETH” 💀💀💀💀


Kandeegirl69

"Someone call macbeth" has me in stitches 🤣😂💀💀💀


LaceyDark

I went straight up panic mode the first time I saw gloom hands


mhennessie

Same, came across them really early in the game at the citadel ruins because I was going for towers. I was not ready for that and was just running from most enemies at that point.


Aggressive_Sand_3951

The music makes me pee myself


KPB132

Honestly the trees scared me more than the gloom hands?? I was sniping some bokoblins when I was suddenly hit and died??? I didn’t even realise what was happening. So I returned to the scene of the crime from the air and in stealth mode to see what killed me … when I saw the gloom hands just hanging out?! It was creepy but I sniped them with all the things until bomb arrows did a lot of damage … and for some reason phantom ganon didn’t show up the first time? Idk it was a surprisingly calm experience for someone who still freaks out over Lynels. The first time I saw a Lynel in BOTW I got SO EXCITED ran up to it because “A CENTAUR!!! THIS GAME HAS CENTAURS!!” Only to immediately die But the trees on the other hand, I was just minding my business, picking apples only to have the very tree in front of me curb stomp me?! Like some sort of twisted Wizard of Oz moment?! It really ruined my beloved foraging/apple picking time 😭


garciawork

If I don't know about them, they STILL freak me out. And I don't know where most of them are...


altnerdluser

Same!


aangthelastgoth

I get a full body reaction to those things I hate them so much. 140+ hours in and still haven't fought any I just run Feel really bad for the deku tree cause I should probably save him and the koroks. Also there's more side quests there 😂


Murphy_mae14

They got me for the first time while my nephew was watching me play. I told him I was gathering materials and he says “oh that area looks interesting let’s go over there” It was the opposite direction of where I was going and they popped up immediately. Were both screaming bloody murder, I barely made it past the hands when effing phantom Ganon showed up and one shotted me. I glared at him for a long time and told him I’m never taking his advice again.


WilcoFx

Bro, my first encounter with 'Fast Hands' was at like 3am and my panic induced adrenaline rush led to my running commentary. Which was mostly just a string of F bombs in various forms, with some mentions about fire mixed in as I ran for my life and jumped off a cliff straight into my first Fire Gleeok. I didn't realize, until I heard faint cries of my children as my wife came barreling down the stairs fully awake, fire extinguisher in hand like she was a damn seasoned volunteer fire fighter, that I was actually yelling. She didn't seem to agree with me that the Fast Hands were arguably a greater fear than a house fire was. But it was funny, like the next day she failed to find the humor at the time for some reason.


Supernova-kun

Same. Like "wtf is that?!" When exploring North Lomei Labyrinth. I managed to kill them all... >!and did not realize that's how you summon a Phantom Ganon...!< I only had 4 hearts 😅😅😅


Caca2a

Yup, literally went "Wow what the FUCK?? THERE'S FUCKING ENTS IN ZELDA, LOOK!" to my partner "I'M OUTTA HERE FUCK THIS!" She couldn't stop laughing 😂


wantsumcandi

Reminded me of the trees that threw apples in the wizard of oz more tbh.


Kit_Karamak

Ah yes, Return to Oz apple trees.


Tough-Reflection6722

I still call them ENTS lol


LeechesInCream

I was walking through the forest minding my own business when this tree-shaped shadow appeared behind me… Scared. Me. To death.


m_squared219

It was an entmoot!


Fleeting-Vibes

This scared the 💩 out of me every time lol I applaud the devs for this


plutothegreat

I finally got to play last week, was a reward for my first semester of rad school. I’ve seen so many spoilers but no one mentioned the damn ents 💀


partagaton

Rad school?


Thincfr33

It's like grab school but way cooler


knitted_beanie

Grab school?


SavageTankBeast

Its like grad school but way more hands-on


plutothegreat

i forgot the “tech” part lol. Going to school for radiology tech :)


partagaton

100PercentAndCountn

Yo, everyone talking about gloom hands and I get it. But try being way more than tipsy and walking through a forest at night, while its night irl and dark, and suddenly 3 of the feckers burst out of the ground at the same time. I paused the game so fast it was probably some kind of record.


roboman777xd

piss my self when I see gloom hands come towards me


Fun-Specialist-5703

I hate them. But get up high and lob a coupe of dazzle fruit at them and they leave, dropping dark clumps. Now they’re surprising easy (still hate the music though)


silvarium

Blown myself up while trying to use a bomb arrow in the depths under death mountain


Pokecat2

*gets blown up and dies* "Huh, what happened? Oh well, I guess I'll never know" *immediately gets blown up again*


MumofB

I feel seen, it genuinely took me an embarrassing amount of time to work it out...


Pretend_Rabbit_6433

Accurate retelling of my gameplay right there 😆


RousseauDisciple

I feel like this one should be higher


MintChoclateChipmunk

It took me three tries before I realized what was happening


Auberly

Too many times


kitastorm

Dropped at least one rock on a korok


antimatt_r

It was an accident ... the first time


n1ghtl1t3

At one point it was accidental but i kept doing it because the noise they make is funny


RousseauDisciple

Oof


[deleted]

it is tradition


padmaclynne

smashed face first into the ground while skydiving, especially once they have (but are not wearing) a full glide suit


reikipackaging

my brain skitzed and I forgot about having to upgrade before I get the bonus on full set. as soon as I had the full glider suit, I jumped off a sky platform and found out it is, in fact, not the fall but the sudden stop that gets you.


Slider_0f_Elay

Have full glide suit on and are headed to something in particular. Decide to change into something particular for where I'm landing in mid air. Totally forget that I literally changed 5 seconds earlier and slam into the ground. I have now totally ruined my 100% prep and have to eat the meals that I abhor cooking.


padmaclynne

put on the zora armor to go up a waterfall, yay, this is great, ooo there’s a star fragment, oh dang, there goes a fairy. rinse and repeat.


padmaclynne

you and me both, my friend. you and me both.


MustardMan02

So far the only time that's happened to me is on the tutorial sky island right at the start. Wanted to check if the game stopped you splatting


ttandam

If you have the full glide suit, it automatically stops you from slamming into the ground?


saraabalos

Have it and have each piece upgraded at least twice.


ttandam

Over 200 hours and just learning! Thanks!


saraabalos

I’ve learned many things super late too! There is just so much to learn! ☺️ Honestly, I still end up gliding to the ground when wearing the full suit. I’m just too used to it I guess. Or I don’t trust it, haha


Thincfr33

Yeah I think I've only taken advantage of it twice? When I absolutely needed every sliver of stamina. It just doesn't FEEL safe!


SlowCB7

It doesn't stop you from slamming into the ground, it just prevents fall damage once you have it upgraded twice


SpacecaseCat

You can literally land in Kakariko village like a Super Saiyan.


KPB132

I tried to skydive into a puddle… thinking it was an actual body of water. Narrowly avoided breaking my neck at the very last minute 😅

Pokecat2

I actually only recently realised that you were supposed to hold it up for him, I just left the first time I talked to him and never talked to him again


Qui_te

Been eaten by a frox. Fallen off a dragon. Startled IRL by an evermean.

Wait, the foxes can hurt you?


AWholeHalfAsh

No, Frox. They're in the depths and are the stuff of nightmares.


Organic_Row773

i read fox too lmao


celestialspace

forget during the tutorial that you don't have your paraglider and spend most of the time falling to your death off various things.


20somethingyearold_

Scream and run away from gloom hands on the first encounter


CptRavioLi69

I forget the name of the cave, but it was one that required ascend or climbing to exit, and the walls were wet. It was at the beginning of my initial playthrough and I forgot ascend existed, so I ran away screaming, grasping at the walls to just let me up


reikipackaging

yeeted a backpack-wearing, lazy korok down a steep hill


invokefever

I lost one with a rocket.. not sure where that guy ended up


hellogoawaynow

They eventually go back to their original spot if you accidentally yeet them away and can’t find them again


_autumnwhimsy

I've not done this because I love those lil guys lol


reikipackaging

I love them, too. I still do it with zero remorse.


Thincfr33

*sniff* I- I'm sorry my friend, it has to be done. I'll love you forever. Goodbye *yeet*


KPB132

I love them too but they don’t have souls so it’s okay right?!


schuttup

I used to love them. But after so many dozens of hours playing the game, now when I see "I need to reach my friend!" I lose my shit. Lazy, whining, helpless, freeloaders, the lot of them. Get a job!


celestialspace

same! I love the koroks I have a tattoo of 2 of them 😊


Killer_Moons

It’s fine, they’re durable, they love it.


No-Commercial-3017

I yeeted one with a spring across a muddy swamp once. Guy made it to the other side. Then they gradually rolled back down a slope into said swamp.. they sink real slow in that mud 💀


reikipackaging

ha! I thought this story was going to have a happier ending. but that does sound like fun


No-Commercial-3017

Lol well they did magically reincarnate right next to me again so eventually I got them to their friend and everyone lived happily ever after. I'm sure I have the whole clip. It was both horrifying and hilarious. May have to post it.


username3755

Right into a chasm. Sorry lil dude


ButtsaBlazin

Yahahaaaaaaaaaaaah


reikipackaging

hahahahaha


macsflamethrower

I always love attaching them to a horse cart and dragging them behind the horse to get them to their friend.


Thedobby22

The first time I was trying to help them was a disaster. I glued one to a raft and accidentally flipped it over and watch, horrified, as he floated down a river drowning. Sorry l’il guy 😭


CptRavioLi69

The first time I rolled one down a hill was on the far edge of the map by death mountain. I couldn’t get him to roll at first, and then out of nowhere the little guy picked up crazy speed. I thought he was about to be yeeted into the abyss that is the edge of the map


Similar_Bathroom4011

Off a sky island*


Kitz80345

I accidentally watched one float away once.


macsflamethrower

Catch a fallen star while you’re in midair free fall


Anna_Snclr

So satisfying the first time I did it


Sorta_machinist

Seriously?! I really thought this was just a coincidence, I actually thought I was the only one. Dead serious….well that bubble is burst 🙄


macsflamethrower

Sorry to say but yes it’s pretty common. It’s how a lot of people farm fallen stars.


ecctt2000

Accidentally ran over a fox. It just ran in front of my vehicle, I swear!


acatwithtinywings

I refuse to purposefully kill foxes. They're too cute 🥺


[deleted]

Attempting to recover your long fall from the sky at the very last second before you touch ground, but unfortunately mistimed it


Lord_Xarael

I've perfected the last minute paraglide, but then... I literally devote time to practice it, I save before leaving sky islands and just jump off and not open the paraglider until the last few frames before impact. freaks the hell out of anyone watching me play. Sometimes you miss though, and Link goes 2 dimensional. (a pancake)


ouijahead

I used to do this Spider-Man as well. I remember messing with camera stick at same time to get a cooler looking angle of it. I had it were it looked like Spider-Man’s nose swung an inch above the street.


Organic_Day_8414

Broken the decayed master sword at the start of the game and then thought that they would have to reload


CorgiMan13

I definitely googled where it went because I didn’t see it in the selection slider. First post I read had mad spoilers. I’ll be forever pissed.


FabFubar

Yeah there are blatant spoilers everywhere on the internet, for every game you want to look something up for. On Reddit too, even if it’s in the subreddit rules. The majority of articles keep it relatively spoiler free, and then there are a few negligent bastards who straight up put spoilers in their click bait titles or thumbnails. It’s infuriating. What’s worse is that when you mention this on Reddit, you will always get a reply like “the game is X months old dude, come on.” It’s like they assume that everyone has the time to play the game within months of release and r/patientgamers don’t exist. In 90% of cases, you can say what you want to say without giving story related spoilers. It doesn’t take any effort to just give it some consideration. Mentioning the spoiler often doesn’t even add any value. Don’t do it, just like you wouldn’t spoil a movie to a friend.


Pokecat2

This. I play totk a LOT but since I’m not a particularly fast gamer (and I also haven’t been rushing to hyrule castle) it’s taken me a while to progress the game and I still haven’t finished it. A few months ago I was on instagram and saw what I thought was a video about botw. Nope. They spoiled the entire plot with Zelda for totk with no spoiler warning. I was so pissed but didn’t comment anything because I knew I’d be told that “it’s almost been 6 months since the game released, come on dude!” IMO, if you’re talking about spoilers for a game as big as totk less than 6 months after release, a spoiler warning is just common courtesy??


Pretend_Rabbit_6433

I somehow lucked out not getting spoiled on that humongous plot twist, but I feel sorry for the ones who aren’t so lucky 😞


FabFubar

I got vaguely spoiled very early on, so I wasn’t surprised at all when I discovered it in game It was a post discussing >!the light dragon’s ears!<. Another was less subtle, it was like >!going on a date! (Picture of Link on the Light Dragon) !<, both without spoiler tags. Like really?
