I don't mind breakable weapons, but my problem is that people normally end up with a full arsenal of the super powerful elemental varieties, because they choose to save them for a challenge that more or less never arrives. It never feels right to waste one of these weapons that could be a reward for a difficult puzzle or challenge. I don't remember what youtuber suggested it (edit: it was Razbuten) , but having the weapons drop some shards or useful items for crafting or anything else, could really make people fill like they haven't wasted their stuff. The best weapons drop the best items after shattering so you are encouraged to use them and still fill rewarded for getting that powerful weapon. I really liked this idea. Instantly understandable without needing to introduce new menus or systems.

@@PlatinumAltaria I do get the point, but some of the best weapons are put as reward for puzzles and challenges, and it seems pretty pointless to then go out and just waste them in normal enemies that you could beat before without issue. You kind of get in the mindset that, since the weapon is sort of special, then it should be used in a special ocassion that never comes. In the moment to moment gameplay you are faced with the choice of wether using this special weapon that you found in a shrine or use the weapons that you can find everywhere that were proven to work in that same situation. So why use the special one? There is no insentive for it, other than killing an enemy faster thatn before, which is really not a big deal. You want to use it for that special enemy that is giving you trouble, but that enemy might never come or might come so infrequently that you grow your arsenal a lot quicker than you use it.

I got inoculated against "too good to use syndrome" from years of Fire Emblem play. I purchased BOTW last year and burned through my weapons with no sense of attachment. I think that mentality fit the game well, and the minor stress from potentially not having the weapons you need at all times kept me engaged instead of frustrated. Problem is, that mentality doesn't ship with the game.

@@HotBlasterBot The original FE on the GBA made me paranoid that my weapons would break before I really needed them, resulting in me ending up in an unwinnable scenario. Even more than weapons though, the consumable healing items were something I never used for the same reason, so I'd always end up running out of inventory space and having to throw them out before using them. I ultimately realized that the situation I was concerned about was just more challenge, which wouldn't be a problem since I had improved to a point where I wanted the game to be harder. And when I tried using my items without concern for durability, I found that I still never ran into a situation where I needed a specific item that broke prior to win. I carried that experience over to other games, both in FE and others. Nowadays, I think it's just FOMO playing mind games with us.

The issue with weapon durability, to my eyes, is also that the player (ie: me) not wanting to "waste" more valuable weapons causes them to create a stockpile of good weapons they never use, constantly worrying about what the least valuable weapon they have is, rather than enjoying the weapons they like. Which since weapon slots are also used for utility items like torches, korok leaves, etc, means that these utility items get pushed out of the player's arsenal too. I think fixing this particular issue would require a far more significant overhaul to the entire weapon system; but I'm sure there's a system out there that can encourage players to experiment with cycling various different weapons in and out of use, without falling prey to this "there must be a better time to use this" problem that consumables always seem to have.

I find the issue with how Nintendo handles resource based games, (BotW, Sticker Star, etc.) is that you are never directly rewarded for using your good stuff, if i could do the same thing with a more common weapon, than use my shiny rare weapon that I have no idea when ill get another one, i wont use it until i feel like I could easily replace it. I will either never use the rare weapons, or likely to avoid fighting all together than to use them, which again defeats the purpose. I think another youtuber suggested this, but have the weapons drop something useful after it breaks. This simple change would heavily reinforce the design philosophy of using weapons until they break. Perhaps these drops could be used to craft unique weapons, or upgrade/augment other weapons, possibly even repair weapons. Rarer weapons drop more/rarer materials. Even with this you could make the rewards meager compared to exploring, but this would be a positive reinforcement to encourage more stubborn and frugal players to use more weapons.

The Fast Travel suggestion is an interesting one, however Fast Travel warping serves a bandaid purpose: Soft Locking. If you don't have a way of teleporting, you run the risk of getting stuck under terrain, and not being able to wiggle your way back out. Sure, you can just save state, or multiple auto saves, or what have you. (Just building a game without bugs isn't exactly a feasible option, because you're talking making sure there are no bugs for an entire open world, dev time is probably better spent elsewhere) The Torii Gate idea totally works for me though, and I'm getting Guardian Trial vibes from Skyward Sword, or even the way they *portray* the Gate of Time, in like Twilight Princess.

Personally, I think open world games should take a page from Sonic Frontiers (which I understand came out way after this video) and just make movement so interesting and fast that you don't _need_ fast travel. In Sonic Frontiers, fast travel is not unlocked until you've unlocked the entirety of the map, but Sonic moves incredibly fast, and unlocks grind rails certain waypoints, which is an inherently interesting way of traversal. A Short Hike is also a good example, with gold feathers acting as a stamina bar for running and climbing, but also gives an additional jump that gets consumed per feather. I personally want a open world game with a movement system as powerful and flexible as Kingdom Hearts Dream Drop Distance's flowmotion, but less state-driven (and that game, The flow motion moves are locked to a slow motion state attained by dashing into walls and poles, or grinding on rails, making it so that it doesn't mix with the other obtainable moves in the game, It's complicated to explain). Here's hoping KH4 is that!

Yeah I think the fast travel thing would just end up being annoying, and you’d wish it wasn’t there. I’d love a rune on your slate that lets you build up momentum tho, moving faster and faster until sparks appear. If it was just an addition to the game, that you could use freely, in stead of a requirement, that would be awesome. And for the durability thing I’d just add a blacksmith that can rebuild broken weapons. Like if your weapons break it leaves a shattered version of it on the ground, and taking that to a smith could let you restore it for some rare items. Maybe you’d even be able to upgrade them, I love the look of the gerudo and traveler items but I never use them because they’re are objectively inferior. Would be nice to be able to upgrade them a bit. I think botw could use some more rpg elements to spice up the reward and empowerment process

While I like your ideas for fast travel in a way, there's an important aspect of that which I think you're missing. Some 30% or more of the players would HATE that feature. As you were talking about it I was just constantly thinking about how my sister (who already complains about the game way too much) would have responded if that was required to fast travel. She would probably come to hate the whole game as a result. It's an interesting idea but at the very least you'd have to cut stuff like the possibility of taking damage on the other end of the fast travel. I do like the rest of your ideas however. I'm not sure they'd completely work but I'd be interested in giving them a go. Glad you're not one of the people saying just to get rid of weapon durability.

Add in to that a lot of players won't understand how to shield surf well/build up speed other ways and I think the mechanic would end up being more of a general nuisance than a celebrated feature.

And I’m sure the people that really enjoyed the mechanic would totally love the challenge of learning to use them in regular gameplay without breaking them, while the ones that don’t like it would just stick with the regular weapon durability mechanic.

The Tori gate idea is brilliant addition to how the game exploration could work. I also think it could have been interesting that going through Tori gates that say block entrances of caves to create its own mini dungeon of sorts, but with a more natural feeling than what you get from shrines. The fast travel idea is good in theory, but would be very difficult to implement in a fun or engaging way for the player. It works in earthbound as its a 2D game with the possible movements limited. Botw however it would just become infurating to the casual player, meaning they would never use it or just drop the game entirely.

Matthew Mattosis pointed out in his review of BotW that the desire to adhere to the theme of freedom actually kinda hampered BotW quite a bit. Freedom is nice and all but game design is all about finding the *right* restrictions for the player. Adding a bunch of these would honestly be great. Many kinds of restrictions aren't bad at all. I would also like the addition of a blacksmith, to be used to fix weapons, and eventually maybe even make them? Would be nice. I would also like climbing to have a small timing challenge, where if you jump at the right tempo you don't use as much stamina. Your climbing idea is really cool tbh!

I like the dueling weapon concept. But I have one little improvement I would implement. A dueling weapon shouldn't get destroyed when it loses all it durability. At least not completely. Instead it becomes a broken variant of the weapon. And you can restore the weapon to its former glory when you bring it to a blacksmith together with a "restoration stone" which can be a rare drop from one of the dueling opponents. The ability to restore your dueling weapon can make breaking you weapon into the trigger of an investing quest instead of a frustrated reload.

I have an alternative idea to your fast travel one (althought this might need more horsepower or trickery). Make people able to use portals, instead of watching a cutscene of link teleporting, link can open his own portal anywhere, link it with one on the map and then just walk through it. There are a lot of stablished portal locations that can be discovered but link can also place a limited amount of portals in the world to access. And again, portals will conserve momentum, so you can solve puzzles involving large gaps or tall cliffs by placing a portal, building enough speed and launching yourself through to the other side. It could be an ability you gain in a dungeon or heavily used in a dungeon to solve puzzles with portals.

Honestly, the best option really for the weapon durability would be too have the ability to repair weapons, like, if a weapon breaks in combat you can't use a while it's broken for obvious reasons but you would have the ability to repair a weapon that you enjoy using. say, like the elemental weapons, or really any fragile weapon. Maybe make the repair slightly more expensive each time you repair one singular weapon, and maybe have the ability to upgrade a weapons durability, and you know, actually fucking see it. Maybe have more weapons that are easier to access that are actually fun to use, maybe you could like give a weapon to NPC, and they'll constantly keep making that weapon every couple of days but you have to buy it each time, maybe have that NPC be ravioli from Link between worlds?

I feel like a refinement and repair options for weapons could have worked well. This way you can get yourself "your" weapon and keep using it and should you lose or break it it's your fault, but you can also get a new one to replace it eventually. Players would still sacrifice something like materials and rupees to keep their favorite weapons but would not generally be forced to find it again once its time have inevitably come. The blacksmiths for this could have also filled up the world a bit more...
@Sealedaway
@Sealedaway Жыл бұрын
Old comment but it’s such a good point. Having the ability to repair, but having it be relatively expensive, solves the main problem with durability of being discouraged from using your best weapons without introducing new convoluted mechanics. If your durability is running low on your favorite weapon, having to get materials to repair it will mean that you’ll be putting yourself into combat situations where you specifically cannot use the weapon you want to repair. That still forces you to think through each encounter and improvise.

For the weapon breaking, I would rather if you didn’t drop the weapon when it broke unless you threw it. You could sprinkle around the world more shops like Robbie’s and have to go there to get it fixed like you could with your shield in Skyward Sword. Then you have to make a choice, would you rather the extra item slot for if you find any new interesting weapons or would you rather spend 10 minutes back tracking to repair the weapon. And, maybe you have to wait a day to repair it too or multiple day so that you’d really have to like something that’s harder to find to go through the process

I feel like dueling weapons particularly interesting and well thought-out idea. I really like it when game rewards a mechanical access have synergy with how they're attained, and the dueling weapon system feels like it has that, rewarding players who want to keep using the same weapon by giving them something that ties into why they probably want to do that in the first place. It also feels very Nintendo, in that it feels like it's an ecosystem, with the different aspects of what it even is flushed out in a bunch of extra mechanics attached to it. Personally, my idea was just to have upgradable gems to put into weapons, akin to materia in Final Fantasy 7, but like gemming systems in other games when they're in a weapon they're there forever, _until you break said weapon._ Naturally, The gems would get stronger as durability is used (with perhaps the implication that's the gems are somehow absorbing the material breaking off the weapon) with the gems getting an extra burst of EXP when the rep pin breaks entirely. This one encourage players to use up the weapons fully, while also making it for that there's still some permanent progress made when weapons are used. Rare weapons in the game are already base weapons with a buff applied to them, these buffs could easily be converted into gems (except for extra durability, though there could be a gem that makes durability get consumed less often instead of increasing flat durability) instead of being rare properties of the weapons. The elemental properties of the elemental weapons could also be converted into gems, for even more variety and flexibility. Also, I imagine the technology weapons would have the distinction of having the most gem slots (because I like the way they look, and it makes sense thematically). And yes, The gemming system is somewhat similar to the item fusion system in Tears of the Kingdom, but I actually came up with this idea while playing Breath of the Wild before that was revealed. Just felt like pointing that out. I'm not entirely sure how compatible this concept is with the dueling weapons idea. The obvious idea that comes to my hand is to have a sort of dueling gem that bestows all the doing weapon effects upon any weapon. But I can also see how the gemming system could be changed up by The simple fact that doing weapons are explicitly meant to be preserved. If gems can still not be removed if placed in them, players would have to think extra hard about what gems to put in them.

Mother-style Fast Travel: Not sure about this one. Feels clunky. Especially the exit mechanic feels too unpredictable if you just wanna get from point A to point B. I could see having to get "up to speed" in the right direction ala Back to the Future, but punishing players for not knowing what's on the other end is feelsbadman. Challenge/Torii Gates: I love this. Optional content that just makes the game _better_. Reminds of hatless challenges from Mario Odyssey. They could really get creative with Special Challenges, they could have Time Trials, the limitations are endless! XD Dueling Weapons: I feel like this is on to something, but not quite hitting the mark. I think to satisfy both camps, maybe a system that explicitly rewards both styles of play? "Durability" weapons typically have (slightly?) higher damage and random special abilities. "Dueling" weapons would actually not work on the durability system at all, and most would instead start their life as Durability weapons. When your weapon broke(or even before then), you could have it reforged, but at the cost of some of its efficacy. Since it's, y'know, a weapon that got broken and repaired. But then over time you can work on the weapon and make it even more powerful than it started, up to a limit based on how far you are into the game. A weapon fully upgraded to the point you can get to at any given time would be on par with the Durability weapons the game expects you to find. There can even be some other special/unique Dueling weapons like the Master Sword.

Okay I am OBSESSED with the duelling swords idea and now I’m sad that we’ll probably never see it in the actual game I think it makes total sense even within the world’s lore because I mean, finding npcs that specifically wanna duel reminds me of the guy in bamboo island from skyward sword, and I was always sad that we never really got to do much with him other than play a mini game that didn’t even involve fighting him. Plus within the story link is supposed to be a master at using all types of weapons, so allowing the world to really reflect effort put in by the payer to uphold that status would feel so rewarding. You could even put in a subtle little Easter egg if the player makes an effort to make their top dueling weapon the master sword, because it would be the chosen hero bonding with the sword of legend and the spirit with the sword. Similar to how you can hear fi at the end of the sword trials dlc.

In regards to durability, just make the weapons unusable until you go somewhere to repair them. I don't mind that I can't ONLY use the Master Sword, I'm just glad it doesn't vanish from my inventory and fuck off back to Kokiri Forest. The part I hate about durability is literally only the concept of losing weapons *forever*. If you're in the middle of nowhere, or inside of a Divine Beast, the durability running out on your weapon but just making it greyed out until you go back to town forces you to use other weapons in the interim. It would let you assemble a set of weapons that you find the most enjoyable or efficient, so when one breaks you swap to the next, knowing that it's still in your inventory but just un-usable for now.

Favorite: Anchor points. You left a lot of room for situational consideration and I've already got a sense of how fun that would be. It'd keep things fresh even when you've got stamina to spare and I'd love to see how fast players manage to go up mountains with it. Least: Fast travel. I'm only against this in that it'd be boring to force traversal in the same manner you already get around with. I'd link it to some new Sheikah slate movement ability.

I love the idea that the guy on the lone ravine platform is just a guy who fell onto it by accident or something. They've been starved for social interaction for months or years, and has gone a bit mad. They're really desperately nice when the player first gets onto the platform (They can say something like "By the gods, someone's finally here! I've waited years! Come, sit, tell me everything"), and the fight only begins when you try to leave. They fight like a berzerker, swinging a club or something, and throwing you around.

The dueling weapons idea sounds a lot like Vergil's concentration gauge from Devil May Cry 4 and 5, where the more efficiently you fight and the less mistakes you make, the faster and more powerful your attacks are. Things like running around aimlessly mid-combat, missing swings, and getting hit will decrease the gauge. I love playing as Vergil, especially with that particular playstyle, so I feel kind of biased when I say that it's a fuckin great idea.

That first addition reminds me a lot of Sonic CD's time travel mechanic, where, if you could maintain top speed for a set period of time, you warped to a different time period with altered versions of the same level design based on which of certain items in the stage you've interacted with, the goal being to avoid the ruined future and get to the past to destroy a series of robot generators to change the future, which then makes the future a desirable location instead of a punishment. (I'll be the first to admit, it isn't nearly as elegantly executed as I've described it to be, in fact, in how it's integrated, it's actually kind of bad since the game gives you the option to just ignore it all together if you're fine with getting the bad ending, and oh crap I've gone on a tangent to the point where what I'm discussing is no longer relevant to the conversation it stemmed from.) Point is, maintaining speed to warp is a cool concept which I'm surprised hasn't been used more often considering it offers a mechanical engagement where without it, it's just a button press. Weird that the only times I can think of it is Earthbound and Sonic CD, strange duo of games to mention in the same sentence.

I especially like the anchor idea. Making your own grappling points has so much potential for a game like this. The main thing I want to see is Hyrule having recovered from Ganon. With all the floating islands, maybe the Rito have expanded and have a giant floating city. Maybe the Gorons are getting full of themselves thanks to an industrial revolution and have started making advances on Zora territory. Above all I want to see Zelda and Link mediating disputes between everyone and actually doing what royalty normally does. Unfortunately, the main conflict will probably be Ganon again, but I can dream.

I feel that this idea for fast travel could be annoying for a decent amount of players if it’s the only way. I think this idea could work as an extension of the BOTW current fast travel where the standard one has set points you can go to but also have your idea of fast travel could implemented where you could set a special marker basically anywhere on the map (provided that you unlock the segment in the map via the towers or some equivalent) and run through your idea of building speed. This way players have two options for fast travelling where we have the traditional way but has the drawback of only letting you travel to set points but also a second version that requires a sort of challenge like build up speed but it lets you have far more freedom for where you want to go. To balance it in the early game, maybe the second fast travel method could require link to get an item or a shiekah slate rune from a dungeon somewhere in the mid game.

The fast travel idea would certainly be interesting, but I'd make two small adjustments First I'm not sure if it's something you already intended, but I'd make "moving toward the warp plate" more general than exact. Say a 30-45° cone in the direction of the plate. So you can't be moving away from it but you aren't completely SoL just cause you happen to be in an area that doesn't have good terrain for it in the exact direction you need. As for keeping momentum, I think this would work better as an option than a rule. Say once you've hit enough speed there's a 1.5 second-ish charge up time before it initiates where you can halt your forward momentum and still teleport, but you'll be standing on the plate when you arrive rather than shooting out of it. So you can always get where you want to go once you've figured out how to get the momentum, but you can also choose to use warp points like a slingshot to propel you into new areas of the map.

For the dueling weapons, how about instead of durability it’s the strength that changes. Mistakes lower it but doing good things increases it. Also add coatings to apply to them for temporary elemental attributes and other buffs. More than the 3 basic weapon types would be appreciated too. Neoh had some good ones, so maybe end up with 5-6. Duels could reward the player with new techniques for the weapons like in the minish cap.

Great suggestions! Dueling weapons would probably need significantly more variety than regular weapons though. And that's the issue with durability as a source of strategy change. Almost every weapon is a drop-in replacement for every other weapon, so it doesn't feel like anything changes. The non-drop-ins are rare (discouraging their use) and work best with decent setup that is usually difficult or impossible non-combat. Durability solves important problems, but not very well.

Just to go off your dueling idea here, what if each region on the map had these duels between an appretice and their master? Like lets use the Great Plateau as an example. You find your first dueling weapon, a sword from the King of Highrule, let's say you find it on top of the mountain. Once you find this it triggers the game to spawn an npc Highlian by the Temple of Time. It's an area you're encouraged to go back to anyway since it has a Goddess statue. So later on you go back there and you talk to the apprentice who sees your weapon. "What a fine looking blade there, stranger! Is it an heirloom from your family? My master would know better, ha ha! He's a blacksmith you see so he could tell you just how old that is exactly... hmmmm. Looks like it was before the Calamity! Amazing! If you wouldn't mind, would you care for a duel? I just have to see what your made of!!!" Accept? Yes. No thanks! If you accept he'll mark your map with a location and you'd go and fight there. Learn the basics and all that. Then excited he'd take you to his master who could clean your weapons and etc.

Yo, I had this idea formulating in my brain roughly when the game released. What if there's some point in a dungeon you awaken dark link? After escaping it would relentlessly follow you physically throughout the whole map. Defeating it would grant you, let's say, a weeks worth of solace in real time. There could be some sort of distorted music cue to let you know it was within 100 meters. I suppose cities & towns would be safe areas, but I had trouble thinking of a reason for players to not just teleport away or how dark link would travel when far from the player.

The anchoring could go great with traversing large horizontal gaps with a cliff face on the side, so you could use your grappling hook/rope to jump from anchor to anchor, or even aim straight up for any overhangs or natural outcroppings so you can make a huge arc with your rope, and even build up speed that way EDIT: you already made note of that.

I think breakable weapons could be circumvented as an issue if they were more renewable. A shop to buy them from, no weapon that you can't possibly get more of, stuff like that. I think that a special item shop would be a good and fitting reward for completing the Hyrule Compendium. They could also make them better through a mastery system that would function like item-specific quests, preferably with you having to actually choose an item in a menu to actually complete these quests. For example, maybe the Master Sword has "Defeat Calamity Ganon without unequipping the Master Sword", "Defeat Calamity Ganon without taking damage", "Discover all 120 Shrines", and "Defeat 200 enemies with the Master Sword". As a reward, you would get perks for that particular item like increased durability (with unbreakableness for the Champions Weapons, Amiibo weapons, Master Sword, and Hylian Shield), a better chance at finding better perks on your weapon (Like attack up and critical strike), certain extras for the weapon (maybe the Windcleaver's air slash travels longer before dissipating if you've mastered it). This would be an extra set of quests, give the optional ability to upgrade weapon durability and make the game easier, give weapons a greater part in Link's identity and your identity as the player, and give Link another sense of progression that is completed purely through fighting monsters and understanding how weapons work.

Regarding the Torii gates: Have you played Okami? There are a few places where in order to reach an area, you have to walk through a gate in a specific direction, which causes the environment to warp in some way: opening a passage to the spirit world below a tree's roots, creating a rocky path across a lake, or making a pass appear in the mountains. It's a very underutilized mechanic in Okami, but you could easily use it as a way to create camps, gauntlets, or dungeons that can only be approached from a specific direction.

I'd like more things to gain permanently to up skill Link. The game basically gives you everything you need in the first hour or so of gameplay. And yeah, that's pretty cool, but it also means there's not a whole lot of to actually acquire throughout the game to make Link more capable. It's basically just the Hero powers, and of them only really Rivalli's Gale feels like it's actually changing how you approach the game. The Korok Leaf is a good example, I think. An item like that works really good with the physics engine to do all sorts of cool things. But I have to weigh picking one up versus having an actual weapon in my inventory, meaning times when I could use it I probably don't even have it. If I could permanently obtain the Korok Leaf via some side quest or something then it's an item the game can always rely on the player having to make the environment more interesting by requiring it's use. Eventually getting a Grip Bracelet to let you climb during the rain without penalty would also be a really appreciated late game acquisition.

Favorite: Tori gates. I think it would solve the linear non-linear debate by making more optional linear sequences in the overworld. Very cool idea and I like how you realized it in your explaination. Liked a lot with some adjustments: Duels. Not so much the dueling weapon specification as it assumes a bit of a binary between play styles with weapon durability between the hoarders and the improvisers. (I'm a little more down the middle myself). I like the duels because the world building of having combative npcs and the scenic backdrop would be very effective. Also. Fighting more human/other race characters sounds very cool. Disliked: the fast travel idea. I'm sorry it does sound fun but it also sounds like a massive hindrance, especially late game. If they need to restrict the insta warp a bit I'll swallow that pill for game balance but I think the option for instant travel needs to be efficient. I'm also not crazy about the anchors only because it encumbers the pace of an already long process of climbing. Give me a hookshot to get a head start on a big climb and give me climbing gear for rain and that solves my climbing problem. It helps to note that I'm not particularly good at botw and some of the ideas are very clearly geared towards proficient players. It can still get dull whether you're a beast at combat and traversal strat.

My favourite idea here is Dueling Weapons. Personally, I was upset about how hard it was to be a mage in BotW, what with wands breaking so easily, and of course I got hooked on Dark Souls over the pandemic. So naturally, this would solve that "favourite weapon" problem... but I think having the occasional blacksmith around the gameworld - usually in a town somewhere, perhaps places like Goron City or Gerudo Town - would definitely help the durability concept. The blacksmiths would have three purposes: repairing, crafting, and enhancing. Repairing would require either rupees scaling with the durability lost on that weapon, or scaled rupees and certain materials based on the weapon type/element (fire jelly for a fire weapon, etc.). The blacksmith repairs your damaged (but not broken) weapon, it's restored to its original condition, and you carry on with your adventure. Forging would be a little more complex: every time a weapon breaks, it drops shards which can be collected/are placed in your inventory. These shards can be brought to a blacksmith, and, if you have enough, they can create a duplicate of a weapon you've already collected or taken a photo of using the Sheikah Slate - blacksmiths need an idea of what the weapon looks like, naturally. The new weapon will also have a small chance of having a bonus, based on Link's hidden XP. Of course, a weapon breaking doesn't yield all the shards required to forge a new one, and forging a weapon will cost more than simply repairing one that you already have, so there's still a cost to breaking a weapon, which can create tough choices for the player (is it worth it to one-shot this tough enemy by breaking this weapon I like, even though I'll have to pay more to have it reforged?). Finally, enhancing would use these weapon shards, but instead of creating a new weapon, the blacksmith uses the shards on a weapon you already have of the same type or element (e.g. fire wand shards could be used on a flamesword, but not a knight's sword), and that weapon gains a new modifier, scaled to Link's hidden XP. This would allow you to collect shield shards, then when your Hylian shield breaks, you can buy another one, then take that new one (which can't have a modifier by default) to a blacksmith, and give them the shards and your Hylian shield. That shield would then have a new modifier (Durability Up +, Defense Up +, or the like). It would also allow you to customise your favourite weapons, allowing the player to build a more tailor-made arsenal than one they cobbled together even at endgame. This also gives the player an incentive to carry around miscellaneous weapons, or duplicates of weapons they already have, because they need to break them in combat to make their favourites stronger.

Anchoring is probably the best Idea you have since you get cool movement mechanics with the parachute, the sheikah slate and maybe a reintroduction of the hooks shots later in the game being mixed up while climbing up. It also gets around a lot of problems that the exploration part of the game has since it turns into a boring climb into a puzzle with some added obstacles like Mountain Octoroks that live in walls, and after being defeated gives a chance to create a resting point for your stamina. Or even some flying enemies that can be hooked up (using the hook shots) living in steep cliffs with their nest housing some cool rewards for players to chase after. Perhaps even a village that houses Hylians of even Rito who live on the face of the mountain. To be honest that probably won't come true since BOTW2 will focus in being in the sky so it's a shame we may not see these concepts fully realized...

On durability, I used a mod to remove durability as a mechanic, but then limited myself to a very tight group of weapons as I progressed. The champion's weapons. The story relevant items (like the replica champions trident or the bow they give you at the shooting range). And the dlc weapons, but only after clearing the 4 divine beasts. It did remove the variety of having to change weapons on the fly, but it did make a really interesting and linear puzzle of the dungeons, like do i try the difficult gerudo one earlier on so I can have a shield for the later ones, and how am I clearing the first dungeon with JUST a spear. Also the champion's weapons are weaker than some of the late game / ancient weapons, so the difficulty persevered a bit better into the late game.

I like the idea of dueling weapons but i would have one of each type be rechargable and you can only carry one but it can only be switched out at your house. More then that i would want the ability to repair/ combine/ upgrade gear at your house as well. Having specific repair materials per weapon type would also mean that there would be more reward possibilities now that you have to worry about maintenance and upkeep. But high level play means you can upgrade gear to last much longer. If the materials are tied to challanges it gives more reason and opportunity to use those other features.

The one I would say works the least would be the fast travel change. The problem with that one is it doesn't address the fact that the warping also serves as a safety mechanic if things are getting too out of hand for a player and they need to escape a situation quickly and gather themselves. By requiring a certain amount of speed to travel before warping, that takes away that safety tool while some extra mobility at warp. I'm sure this is something that the Speed Runners would take advantage of but otherwise, it just adds more variable to a mechanic than really necessary.

Id say that that form of fast travel could work early on, but having better ways to fast travel as you progress would be better. So at first you only have regular travel, then after leaving the plateau you gain the speed based warp, then after completing a specific temple you gain access to a more stable warp method with more limited locations for warping to and from. This way there's still times when you might want to use the speed warp, and others where it's more practical to use the stable warps. Kind of like the way Dark Souls 1 handles it, where there's a main route and some shortcuts, then homeward bones which are able to go to move you to a bonfire from just about anywhere with some prior planning, and then bonfire warping that has limited locations it can take you to and from, but is incredibly easy to use.

My favourite idea was easily the anchoring weapons because not only it revolutionizes climbing as a whole meaning so you can create the challenge of an unclimbable cliff where you'll have to sacrifice things to get higher which could blend well with the tori gate idea by making players have to conserve their items to reach a goal. My least favourite however is the fast travel idea. It not only is too finicky but brings up questions regarding your momentum part because you essentially are fusing a portal mechanic with BotW. Does this mean sky diving will become even more powerful because it also counts as a speed and all you have to do when fast travelling is hold the hang glider to instantly save yourself? There might also have to be a reason why such a limitation was placed after BotW in an era of peace? Is it gonna work by setting a location and then it throws a small portal ahead of you that gives you a small shot of where you're gonna land and go? I guess I'm saying that I want to know more about this mechanic because there wasn't enough told about it and I can't think about it and have a clear idea.

They had a weapon upgrading system in Skyward Sword, so why did they only carry that over for armors? (probably time and/or effort)
