So fricken true
Does anyone remember that shrine where you had to attach a giant ball to like a raft or something in between some walls in some water? Yeah I had no idea how to do that, was I supposed to make like a paddle boat or something? I ended up just making a giant long ramp and walking up the platform with the ball…
Botw had some shrines like this too where it was like “oh I didn’t know I could do that, oops I’m at the exit by accident, oh well”
“Should I navigate this ball through this labyrinth maze or should I just flip the controller over and flick the ball into the funnel?”
One of my friends is bound and determined to solve every single puzzle with the tried and true strategy of Really Long Stick.
I’ve gotten into the habit of solving a shrine then googling how I was actually supposed to do it.
Is a shrine truly solved if you didn’t try to jank? To jank is to be human
After about 60 shrines, I realized that a simple platform and recall is the solution to maybe 75% of the puzzles.
Reach a place? Move platform and recall.
Stop a moving object? Recall and cancel.
Enemy throws something at you? Recall it.
Etc. (Because I can’t remember other examples, but this covers a lot)

It took me about 15 shrines before I realised that a paraglider might be useful thing to have.
