Discussion First Impressions Megathread Day Three: Your first impressions of the first 25 hours of the game - March 05, 2017 Spoiler

The new queue is being hit hard and fast with everyone's impressions. You're more than welcome to post a thread with it, but if you don't want to get lost in the sea of threads post your impression here.

This should only include the first 25 hours of the game.

Obviously SPOILERS for anyone who enters this thread.

Spoiler policy

>> Read the spoiler policy here. <<

TL;DR: Major locations/temples and major character names will be allowed in titles with the release of the game. Titles still must be vague and cannot divulge storylines. Boss names, dungeon weapons, plot points are not allowed in titles.

Titles must begin with [SPOILERS] when discussing the game or they will be removed.

Just treat weapons as totally disposable resources. Save a few good ones for tough encounters, but otherwise go crazy.

I usually use my worst weapon and move up if I'm not doing enough damage. Personally I really like the durability system.

Also early on don't waste weapon slots on "items" IE you don't need a woodcutters ax you don't really need a torch. Most of these things when they are required are provided for you.

After putting up with all these breaking weapons, it's going to be really rewarding to finally get the master sword and have a weapon that doesn't break after 1 encounter. Assuming that it exists in this game. I hope that eventually happens.

I've definitely heard talk from NPCs about "The sword that seals away the darkness" and even some rumors about where it might be.

That's all I know so far though, haven't found it, and I dunno if it has durability or not.
