I actually used a horse today for the first time.
Kind of against it Cos you miss stuff and the Scenery Cos you’re going too fast.
But it was a long trek with no shrines anywhere nearby so I went with it.
I haven’t got any of the northern or western regions done and somehow have done loads Of temples off the map and towers everywhere else.
Really enjoying it more this time. It’s just endless. Brilliant though. We’re in lockdown three and I haven’t had a beer this year. Link is getting me through it

On my current replay of BotW, I've gotten 118/120 shrines. But it's such a pain in the ass to figure out the two I'm missing. They have to be some kind of side quest shrine because I've covered the whole map, my sensor would have gone off otherwise.

I forgot I hadn't defeated the guardian in the one in hyrule castle, so I just did that. Just one more to find now.

My kids have a book. I went through it shrine by shrine.
Also, how do you know you've cleared all the guardians?

If you find a shrine but don't complete the task, it saves it as a travel point, but on the map instead of all blue, it shows as blue and yellow.
Also, I found the missing shrine. I forgot to do the one you do after defeating Vah Medoh, where you use a flame on the platform to activate it around noon after that bird lady teaches you the song.

Oh, you mean you cleared the guardians in the shrine. Not all the guardians in the game.

Yes, sorry. I found some of the Major Test of Strength shrines early on so I left them for later

There’s a ton of shrine side quests
Get the expansion packs you loon. They’re only $15 or so.
You get a ton more shrines in every region and loads of extras. I’m having so much fun just tooling around. Farming dragons diamonds and tomorrow, star fragments. Only done two of the divine beasts. Just having fun running around.
Fucking korok dealer guy is fuckin with me tho. He wants 25 nuts for one slot!!
I’m sure it wasn’t like this last time I played

Dime.
This is my third play through of the game. I have the expansion packs you loon. Korok seed amounts go up the more slots you get from him. And don't you think if I said I've found 118/120 shrines, I know about shrine quests?
Silly dime.

Is there not around 180 shrines with the extras though?
Sorry i just have that number stuck in my head I dunno why.
I keep finding stuff I have no idea what I’m supposed to do with too. One downside of the extras. Throws a spanner in the works on the small stuff.

Ugh, I couldn't imagine starting over. After I beat Gannon, I just went back to my last save outside the synagogue and went off to more adventures. That's what I've been doing ever since.
