First time was cool. Interesting. Wow! Shit got stale really quickly for me though. I mean why didn't they just add a little bit of the old with the new? All dungeons felt the same. Boss fights were good though

Nice evading the question guys.

Honestly, they don't actually feel all that complex.
Not much about them interlink, and the majority of the terminals are just blocked by singular puzzles, mostly doable in whichever order you wander in.

Previous Zelda games have had more interwoven aspects to dungeons.
Ocarina of Time's Water Temple had you controlling the water level throughout, which limited greatly where you could navigate until you found the longer hookshot.

Link's Awakening's Eagle Tower saw you navigating twisting corridors, up and down floors with switches that open and close paths, as you worked to demolish pillars that collapsed an entire floor so you can reach the end. The dungeon exclusive item is merely helpful in reaching the next dungeon too.

The Temple of Time in Twilight Princess worked in two directions, on the way to a point and then a way back, with the dominion rod now allowing you to transport a statue from one end to a central point. Each room took on a new meaning on the way back thanks to it.

Honestly, a lot of the dependency for puzzle design in BotW is "You have a nice physics engine", and little of it works on a grander scale than the individual components.
You don't notice this problem as much during the individual shrines, they're usually quite well focused in that regard.
On closer inspection the divine beasts handle more like a bunch of shrines glued together, using that basic control mechanism. Of all of them Vah Nabooris probably had the most complexity.

>>377162418
Faggots got mad because there were only 4 dungeons + Hyrule castle. Then again they forget to name awesome shrine quests like Eventide Island and Typhlo ruins which are far more interesting than your average Zelda dungeon.

These dungeons take less than 30 minutes to figure out. They were glorified shrines.

Gameplaywise they're very good, but too short. Should've had some high level guardians in them instead of just shit tier ones. Instead of shitty guardians they should've had none at all.

That logic applies to previous dungeons in the series too, autist

>>377162418
What's a "creative erection?" Legit question

the only argument autists find against the divine beasts is that "they're too short" which is a fucking bullshit excuse.

jesus christ all these fags trying to get in a screencap because they don't know the meaning of erection
yeah op used it in a stupid way to try to sound smart but it literally just means buildings

>>377162418
Because /v/ is Neogaf.

The Divine Beasts are ludo as fuck. Only shit taste plebs don't like them.

>>377165479
I think other zelda's had more than just 2 enemies in all their dungeons. I will give you that the dungeon items in the old game were basically the same as the Map in BOTW though.

>>377165791
The length is the problem, though. They finally kinda broke from the Ocarina of Time dungeon formula, which was a good formula don't get me wrong, but it felt like something new and refreshing. But it's disappointing too because it's over before you know it, and there are only four of them. The rest of the game makes up for it, it's my GOTY, but I really hope they go balls to the wall on bigger dungeon again in the next Zelda.

>>377165791

If they're short then they're not much of a creative erection are they?

>>377165791
I don't understand this complaint. The Bird, which was the shortest one, took me around 45 minutes to finish which is basically the same amount of time than 2D dungeons in previous games. The Camel took me over 2 hours to complete 100% because some chests were a bitch and that's basically over the average time for 3D Zelda dungeons.

I get that the whole "you can control a part of the divine beast to solve puzzles" is cool and all but that's all the dungeons are.

>>377166296
Dungeons in previous games had you use more than one item though

>>377162418
>Dungeons are so fucking short there aren't even mini-bosses
Might as well replaced them with Shrines

OP, you probably misunderstood because you hadn't played them yet.

they're fucking awesome pieces of level design, and fun as hell, but they are in no way zelda dungeons and they don't replace the need for a traditional zelda dungeon

they were far more like huge shrines - which was cool, i loved them. but people were expecting proper dungeons and felt disappointed, and took that out on the beasts

>>377167845
one of them took me about 10 minutes, seriously. the camel did take me more than an hour, but only because i was seriously stumped. there isn't an hour's worth of content in there like a zelda dungeon, they take more time because the puzzles are vastly more detailed / difficult than standard 3d zelda puzzles

>>377168037
This.

Literally did not even touch the boss, just used arrows. These bosses are so fucking underwhelming.

Eh, I enjoyed their concepts, and appreciate Nintendo doing something other than the umpteenth iteration of the fire temple and so on.

The problem was, aside from the Zora and Goron beasts, that whole aspect of the game felt half-finished. The Rito one for example has fuck-all for a pre-beast questline, and infiltrating it actually gets easier as you bomb the turrets. The Gerudo beast does one simple attack you're basically invincible to as long as you're not a retard, while you have plenty of time to bomb its feet. There should have been more to these sequences to ramp up their difficulty.

>>377168696
great but way too short
basically just 5 shrines combined

the bird one took like 10 minutes

>>377168538

They were alright but I would rather have actual dungeons. Hyrule Castle was an actual dungeon if you started from the bottom floor and it was probably my favorite part of the game, really well done there. I hope DLC2 adds dungeons.

I only liked the bird dungeon, Elephant was meh other two were awful

Va Ruta was the best of the bunch, but the only roadblock in puzzles in this game is forgetting you have your ice power.

They're easy and pretty much on par with other Zelda dungeons, but they're not vast and aesthetic like other 3D Zelda dungeons so they seem underwhelming.

>>377170803
You had to follow the wind for that? I just walked randomly through like 4 times until I got through

>implying Stone Tower Temple is hard

Getting all the chests in the Lizard is unironically more challenging

People here can't judge a game objectively, that's why games with sexually appealing waifu's but shit or average core gameplay are always held up in such high regard.

>>377162418

The concepts are great and overall I think they're a decent success, but despite their sizes the dungeons themselves are too small and short, aside from maybe Ruta.

If they were twice as big (so the inside of Medoh's wings would be two stories tall and not just one, for example) they would have been a lot more satisfying. Also, too many of the terminals are just too easy to reach, I often overcomplicated things because I expected more of a challenge. Instead, the actual tricky parts tend to be reaching all the chests, which are all entirely worthless and optional when they should instead have contained stuff like keys so those puzzles actually had to be solved.

>>377171059
That explains why you thought that shit was worth mentioning as a "dungeon."

Getting all the faires in the Stone Tower Temple is more difficult than anything in BotW.

Four 15min dungeons, with rehash bosses, each focused on one of your 4 starting abilities: Elephant: Cryo, Camel: Magnet, Eagle: Stasis, Lizard: Bombs.

The divine beasts are gimmicky dungeons good for only this game. Hyrule Castle is the kind of design that should be the future of the series.

They are short though. Considering there only four of them, it's a bad thing. BotW is missing dungeons and don't give me that shrine crap.

>>377162418
They're just super shrines with a boss. There's no sense of danger because the only thing damaging you is one shot fodder that you can stop completely with a single arrow by destroying their portal.

But then again this is Zelda and it takes a while until there can be actual discussions about it.

Is it as good as A Link Between Worlds?

The desert one is a pain and the ass and I actually cheesed it and skipped an entire puzzle but still finished it. You can cheese everything in this game.
