I had around 150 by the time I completed the game.

Bonus question: what percentage completion do you have?

I'm sitting on 50.5% right now.

What do you mean "did" lol

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Asking in the past tense is making some assumptions.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Exactly what I was thinking lmao

[–] picandocodigo 10 points 1 year ago

I'm over 80 hours in and I'm not even close to finishing the main quest. I've done 2 of the 4 initial temples, lots of shrines and korok seeds, but taking my time and enjoying every new section of the map. Not in a hurry, I've been enjoying other games in between. Plus, if this is anything like BotW, I'll still be playing it 3 or 4 years from now.

165 hours across 26 days

I don’t know what percentage I finished at but I at least reached my goal of getting every shrine and lightroot. This is a picture I took after finishing my playthrough.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago

I have around 130 hours in now and could finish the main quest, but, as I did with BotW, I’m delaying the end by going after armor sets, doing shrines, and various side adventure/quests instead of doing the final fight.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I have 215+ hours in, not complete at all, i dont even know where to find the percentage complete.

[–] slimerancher 6 points 1 year ago

I think it only shows up when you have finished the main quest.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

I believe it’s in the map view on the bottom right maybe?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Switch says 280+ hours. Some of that was messing around building dumb and fun stuff. Completed all shrines, 111 lightroots, all bubbul gems, 404 korok seeds and I have almost all armors. I really enjoyed hunting down all the caves. Caves and underground were my biggest wishes for this game, and OH BOY did they deliver in that respect.

Edit: 73.99% completion and I don't plant on attempting 100% lol

[–] Zed 6 points 1 year ago

I've put around 240+ hours into TOTK but not because I am a completionist or anything, it's mostly because I don't like using fast travel and I enjoy traveling the world, finding secrets or hidden locations.

But I have to admit that I overdid it, towards the end I felt a little burned out due to this.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I am almost too afraid to ask ... Where do you see those stats? Thank you

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

You see time played in your profile in the switch ui, and you see percentage completed on the map screen after finishing the main quest

I just started the other day, so about 4. 😋 Just got to the Temple of Time, so assuming I'm about to leave tutorial island.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

52.36% at 130 hrs. I felt myself burning out on the game and it was eating up a lot of my productivity so I made a push to finish the main quest. I don't see myself coming back to the game anytime soon so I'll probably be stuck at that % and playtime for a while

[–] aqua 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)
[–] Arsaille 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

You can find it when you open the map in the bottom right corner after you finish the game I believe. My switch is being repaired right now, but it's certainly in one of those corners.

[–] aqua 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Ah but definitely only once finished?

[–] Arsaille 2 points 1 year ago
[–] catalyst 4 points 1 year ago

185 hours, 68%. I’d love to keep going, but at the same time I’ve mostly run out of things in game that I feel like completing.

[–] didnt_readit 3 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Probably unpopular opinion but I burned out on BOTW before I even beat 2 divine beasts, and felt like I beat all the shrines I could get to without getting one shot by enemies in the area so kind of felt totally stuck… I haven’t even picked up TOTK yet as I figured it would be more of the same.

And they kept that annoying weapon breaking mechanic which I always hated… been getting around to playing BOTW again with mods before moving on to TOTK, but also heard about the pretty awful performance on Switch so will probably buy it but just play on emulator to get a decent frame rate or wait for a Switch 2 and pray for backward compatibility support like PS5 has for PS4 games to get better performance.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (2 children)

TOTK performance on switch is not bad at all. I don't know where what perception came from. I haven't experienced any low frame rate issues after 100 hours.

BOTW on CEMU with mods is a really fun experience. I've been playing it on my Steam Deck, and it's fantastic.

I'm at like 70 or 80 played and Gerudo town isn't saved yet. Work + loads of things make it so I game a lot less than I want.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

At least you'll savour the time you get to actually game I guess..?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

I'm still playing the game, I haven't completed the game yet and I spent more than 110 hours.

Question: Where can you see your percentage game completion?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Once you complete the main quest it will be visible on the map screen :)

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

I started booting up other games again after about 200 hours. Credits hit, all shrines and LRs found and completed, full energy upgrades.

I haven't gotten all the gear but of the gear I got, it's all at least 2-star. I think I'll probably boot it up periodically now and then to run down gear and get mats to get them all upgraded.

I doubt I'll ever care to get all Koroks and true 100% map completion, but given enough time, I suppose it may end up happening regardless. Despite moving on to other games again, it's still quite peaceful and enjoyable in small doses, just like BotW was for me before. I never truly 100%ed the Koroks and map % in that either, but I got pretty far...

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

I've sunk like 290~ hours so far into it (although some of it is definitely being AFK).
Have all Quests, all Caves, Lightroots and am sitting at 95% map completion. Planning to get the 100% before my Hero's Path is full.
Not sure if I grind out the last few remaining things that don't count towards the map percentage completion (beating every boss encounter everywhere, upgrading every armor to max).

[–] MushroomHaus 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

255 hours for around 76% completion

That's for all shrines, gems, wells, sage wills, and bag slots unlocked. I guess there's a pretty hefty weighting to the rest of the Koroks?

[–] Arsaille 4 points 1 year ago

Yeah, the koroks are always really heavy weight. I think I left off with around 65%, and I had done most side quests, got all shrines + sages wills, and only about 100 koroks. I just can't find it in me to go for the koroks knowing what the reward is.

[–] Zealous 2 points 1 year ago

I haven't bought the game yet because I'm afraid of getting hooked on it..

[–] slimerancher 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

My 75 hours feel such rookie numbers, but I haven't finished the game yet, so let's see.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

@slimerancher

@R00bot most people had only played the game for 75 hours at some point haha.

I'm at about 120 hours, haven't completed yet, although I probably could at any time starting around 80 hours. I've been filling out lightroots and shrines and doing other random side stuff I stumble across.

How do you see completion percentage?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Around 40 hours if im not mistaken

[–] macintosh 2 points 1 year ago (6 children)

About 5. It really wasn't doing it for me. I should probably try again since it was so damn expensive, but I really wasn't getting what I hoped out of a new BOTW-style zelda game.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (2 children)

So like mostly the tutorial area? I wasn't feeling it either for the first maybe 10 hours, but then I got most of the starter quests out of the way, started to set my own goals and the game really opened up like BotW. I'm about 150 hours in and there's still so much to do.

I feel like it did take a while to have the open-but-connected feel of Breath of the Wild. It has got there now but I was pretty concerned for a while about how disconnected the world felt. That was what made BotW so memorable, every part of the world had a characters with their own important story and the interaction Link had with those characters and their story mattered and would have meaningful effects on them.

200 hrs

I already beat the game and finished all main quests.

  • 152 shrines
  • 115 Light roots
  • about 365 golden poops
  • 19 sage wills.
  • about 10 gears missing (this is a guess based on those thay I am missing to complete a set)
  • i still have a lot of side quests I didn't complete.
  • 17 wells to go
  • i have 42 bubbul gems after getting the gear. I don't know how many I still need to find.
[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

I finished the first jump sequence and had to do some errands and I just haven't been back to the game yet. I figure once I start I'll sink a lot of time into it but I just.... haven't yet.

[–] hittheskids 2 points 1 year ago

I had about 110 when I first best the main story. Since then I've been picking it back up in bits to unlock the rest of the depths map and explore islands I've missed. Guessing I'm around 130 or so at this point.

There are still a ton of shrines and side quests I haven't done, but I doubt I'll ever 100 percent it.

[–] BenignLarency 2 points 1 year ago

145 hours and I finished at 70ish% map completion.

I did all the shrines and light roots, finished all of the side adventures, and upgraded most of the armour.

[–] Arsaille 2 points 1 year ago

I ended off with about 150 hours aswell. I didn't make a super large push to do absolutely everything before finishing the story, I decided early on that I was saving it for Master Mode. On an unrelated note, it's a bit of a bummer that Master Mode wasn't in at launch. I hope they don't make the enemies regenerate health again though!
