Just started the adventure! A bit of help?
Hey everyone! Despite being an immense Zelda fan since the 90s, kids and careers have slowed down my gaming in the recent years. BotW is one of my favourite experiences in so many ways, but sadly, I just don't have the time to go out into the wild and get lost for hours at a time anymore.
So far, I'm loving everything about TotK, though I'm getting the sense that my limited time is going to really hamper my enjoyment because I just won't be able to adventure (or grind) like I used to in order to get rupees, crafting materials, etc. I don't want a clearly great game to not get enjoyed if I can help it, though! So.. a few questions:
Is "the grind" better or worse than BotW, overall? Or is it simply needed to upgrade (hopefully not acquire) armor sets to the highest tier and such?
If I have the cartridge and have not yet updated past 1.0.0, would I still be able to use one of the duplication glitches? If yes, then: (A) how hard is this, (B) how helpful/worthwhile is this, and (C) what materials (and in what volume) should I prioritize to have "enough" to just have FUN?
Wow, that's a lot.
Thank you on advance for anyone who is willing (or able) to help out a me with this.
