<br>This final tattoo is a tableau of the darker elements from practically every 3D Zelda game . It’s impressive how the colors and shapes come together in a cohesive way despite the differing aesthetics of each game. The roundness of Majora’s Mask ’s moon, for example, is echoed by the round cogs of the Gate of Time from Skyward Sword . The blue from the Gate of Time is then copied by the Deku Baba design from Ocarina of Time (by @itsjustbeebe on Instagr<br><br> <br>Just under a month away from the highly anticipated release of The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom _ , a new trailer has shown off more of the game's story than any previous material, including several returning characters from _Breath of the Wild . A rare direct sequel in the <a href="https://Zeldatearsofthekingdomfans.com/">Zelda Tears of the Kingdom missions</a> series, Tears of the Kingdom continues the story of its predecessor, placing Link back in the same open-world, post-apocalyptic Hyrule, with what looks like a bevvy of major changes to keep the game fresh. First revealed in 2019, Tears of the Kingdom is shaping up to be a massively ambitious game, well worth the w<br><br> <br><img src="https://p0.pikist.com/photos/1011/557/graphers-scenery-nature-landscapes-scenic-graphy-s-outdoors-hobby-thumbnail.jpg"; style="max-width:430px;float:left;padding:10px 10px 10px 0px;border:0px;" alt="" />The vivid cobalt blues in this design are brilliant, tying the moon into the blue from Majora's Mask 's iconic clock tower . Bright oranges then act as highlights, picking out the moon’s eyes, its flaring nostrils, and the top of the clock face. The moon’s terrifying grin and perfect spherical shape also take advantage of their position on the shoulder to make the curves of the model’s arms stand <br><br> <br>The Woodcutter’s Axe is one of the weapons in BOTW which has a dedicated secondary purpose. As the name implies, it deals extra damage against trees, making the axe an excellent choice of weapon for collecting wood as it can chop them down expeditiously. As an actual weapon, however, it is remarkably cumbersome to wield, and forces Link to attack with slow, sweeping blows. Should the item come back in Tears of the Kingdom , though, it would make more sense for the axe to become a proper tool. With little value as a weapon, a permanent inventory addition for resource collection fits the Woodcutter’s Axe much bet<br><br> <br>Ore Deposits across BOTW ’s Hyrule allow the player to gather everything from Rock Salt to Gemstones. However, mining these deposits comes with a cost. Breaking the rocks generally means sacrificing some of a weapon’s durability, which in BOTW is of course a precious resource itself. On the other hand, it is also possible to break open Deposits with bombs, but this often leads to the contents being flung far wildly. In a worst-case scenario, this can even lead to some items being lost, especially if mining along cliffs. A pickaxe or similar item, perhaps an unbreakable version of BOTW ’s Iron Sledgehammer, would solve both of these issues with min<br> <br>Of course, there are many more side quests to complete and colorful characters to encounter in Hyrule. However, this synopsis nevertheless covers the broad strokes of Link’s journey in Breath of the Wild , from the tragedies of the past to the triumphs of the present. With this in mind, fans of the game __ should be well-prepared for the release of **Tears of the Kingdom ** , which will soon continue the story of Link and Zelda in the wake of Calamity Ganon’s def<br><br> <br>Despite the defeat of Calamity Ganon in Breath of the Wild , the latest trailer for Tears of the Kingdom finally confirms that its mysterious villain is in fact Ganondorf. Contrasting the explicitly monstrous and (for most of the game) mostly formless Calamity Ganon of BOTW , TOTK 's Ganondorf takes the form of a more humanoid Gerudo, mirroring the villains past appearances in previous Zelda games like Ocarina of Time . Interestingly, promotional art for the game shows TOTK 's Ganondorf as taking somewhat of a departure from past Gerudo designs, with an exposed chest, ponytail, and a large kat<br><br> <br>Out of the confirmed returning character, Riju gets what might be the flashiest entrance in the new TOTK trailer, as it shows her dual wielding scimitars while lightning crashes down around her. Although not explicitly shown doing so, it's likely that she will be able to fight alongside Link similarly to Sidon, with potentially even the ability to replicate the Urbosa's Fury power from the first game. Along with the mysterious structure shown rising out of the sand in the Gerudo Wasteland near the start of the trailer, it's likely that, along with Sidon and the other Champion descendants, Riju will have a more pronounced story role in TO<br><br> <br>Another item in Breath of the Wild that should become a proper tool is the Torch. Used to light Link’s way and set fires, it is even weaker as a weapon than the Woodcutter’s Axe. In practical terms, it is simply a utility item, and one with limited durability at that. Changing this would not only free up an inventory space, but also ensure that Link never needs to go searching for a light source with a proper tool on hand in the BOTW sequel . Of course, it is possible that the Torch could still run on a limited resource; perhaps it could use oil, similar to Twilight Princess ’ Lant<br>
