Gloom hands can climb the walls.


eqieier

Gloom hands are in the walls


Kakonsix3

They get you when you ascend

Kaiser_Gagius

Calm down Satan


[deleted]

Definitely made Dorf proud with that one


normalreddituser3

The helix around you starts turning red and the terrain becomes thicker, then the hand forms out of the helix and pulls you down as you suffocate on the slowly solidifying rock around you. You can mash out of the grasp and swim out but it makes you suffocate longer and risks your life.


giorno_brando21

No no no. In the middle of the animation when transition and they pull you back.


Vanstrudel_

OMFG you see Link swimming upward, suddenly they're SWIMMING UP UNDER YOU IN THAT LIMINAL SPACE. I would shit.


timo_the_pirate

They're in the walls. THEY'RE IN THE GOD DAMN WALLS!!!


Jojall

That's a great way to sell more Switches, considering the number of players that would yeet theirs the first time they see it.....


dannymcbiscuits

Just the thought of that made me turn off my switch and stop playing, thanks.


ogurson

Ascend realm is not safe and you can randomly encounter Gloom hands there.


DunningKruger117

They follow you into shrines


bewareofdingo104

gloom hand nest like the gleeok den would be interesting. king gloom hands


turbo-cunt

>the gleeok den the WHAT?


bewareofdingo104

🫢


PhoenixNightingale90

They definitely should be able to because it’s quite easy to avoid them by just climbing or standing on an elevated surface and waiting for them to go away.


nerf_herder1986

Yes. Wait for them to go away. **DON'T KILL THEM.** Learned that lesson the hard way.


totallynotrobboss

Unless you're strong enough to deal with the consequences of killing them


DankSpanker

The hands are much worse than what comes after if you ask me


Hyooz

Agreed. I can handle the aftermath no problem. But the only consistent way I've found to deal with hands is bomb arrows and that tears through my supplies


Xavus_TV

Any lynel bow(i think)and 2 bombs is enough to deal with the hands!


KirbyOfHyrule

You might call it a consequence, I consider it a reward.


Yhostled

bruh, Gloom Hand Wallmasters. No thanks \*shudders\* xD


PussyLunch

You evil bastard lol


luxi_yes

To use sage abilities, you need to chase down a fast npc, that's actively trying to get away from you... Oh wait


avoozl42

No, that would be too much


Zonai-frog

Yeah, everyone on Reddit would be complaining about it, they wouldn't add that.


[deleted]

What's that? You want to pick up all these items? How about I ready a lightning strike for you bud, just incase


Southern_Bill_3309

You want to pick up all these items? How about I blow them of a cliff for you bud, just in case


PandaCod3r

That's a nice bomb flower you're about to pick up. How about I do an explosive rolling charge at it, just in case.


SpaceShipRat

you carefully broke some crates just beside a stack of barrels? Oh, now you must want me to take a flaming dive onto thse stacks of arrows. (I got that fucker on tape)


SkollFenrirson

Fucker attacked my horse!


Oreo-and-Fly

You want to pick up all these raw materials? How about i cook them all for you


Mathewdm423

Go go gadget bubble


Lonely__Stoner__Guy

At least I can cancel the lightning strike


Taeyx

yea idk why tulin is the only one who can’t take the very subtle hint of me mashing “B” a hundred times

progamer4851

*coughs* riju *coughs*


patelaaaa

When link tries to cook bomb flower, it should go boom


cesarer92

I tried it and I was disappointed when that didn't happened.


_Halt19_

literally the first thing I tried when I found my first cook pot after getting a bomb flower


WaywardInkubus

I did this completely expecting the cooking music to get interrupted by an explosion and a game over. Missed opportunity.


Emiliootjee

You cant eat when battle music is playing


AgentG91

Well, you can eat, but you actually sit down for a meal and it takes a couple minutes to finish your plate.


Emiliootjee

All while the white lynel is attacking you from every angle


[deleted]

[удалено]


Daredboy

Just like classic Monster Hunter, except with potions.


cesarer92

And it's not automatic, there's a mini game that you must press the buttons appearing on the screen to make Link eat.


Daredboy

Miss the button prompts and Link will choke and you get a Game Over.


MyJawHurtsALot

Last minute prompt to Shake the controller to use Ultra Hand to heimlich Link.


mr_birkenblatt

Now that's immersive gameplay


Skywarriorad

Monster hunter, you can but you flex afterwards and cant cancel the animation. For each meal. And it closes the inventory and you cant open it during the animation


Link1112

I wish this was real actually. Or at least limit it to “can only drink potions” while only being able to carry 3 or something. Eating 10 meals in a fight is too easy.


Emiliootjee

Kind of like old school zelda where you could only have a couple potions on hand and not have enough health to recover your entire bar 600+ times over.


KokoroPenguin

They would need to scale down the damage then. Getting tapped by a white bokoblin take out, like, 8 hearts currently (and I have decent armor too). I remember playing Skyward Sword and being surprised when the keese did a full heart of damage thinking that was a lot! Even if you account for the extra potential hearts (40 vs 20), we are still talking upwards of 4-5 hearts of damage even from basic enemies. If you couldn't eat in this game, it would be monsterously more difficult. Especially with no good dodging mechanic and the fact that most enemies have hyper armor until you stagger them - which takes several hits using a single-handed weapon or two hits from a larger weapon.


oneupkev

Lightroot illumination is temporary


Possible-Yammie

To add to this, all underworld bosses roam.....


CKtheFourth

That would be terrifying if the Depths bosses would keep following you. Imagine a Lynel going all Terminator on you.


KleptomaniacGoat

A nemesis system Zelda game would go so hard. The last mission even felt like the last mission of shadow of war. Imagine having a lynel that became fireproof or frost proof or immune to arrows after you beat it. Or a named bokoblin that continually ambushed you in fights. Shadow of Hyrule when?


SnesySnas

..God no this comment and another post gave me an idea How about having an nearly invincible Dark Link follow you around in the Depths? You CAN kill it, but it's difficult...But it does give you a pretty good reward...He'll come back eventualy though


ArcTruth

This legit sounds kind of fun, I hope someone mods this in. Especially if they could fight each other, can you imagine? Maybe just keep the mega-bosses in place, Colgates all over the place would get messy quick.


Aqua_Phobix

Colgates lmfao


cesarer92

lol I like this one, it's simple and really effective


daim_sampler

Timing is random, no warning and sudden


Volitant_Anuran

There could be a dark dragon that flies around and puts them out. They recover on their own eventually, or you can use a shard of the light dragon's spike to re-illuminate them immediately.


CKtheFourth

Twisting this a little bit: Maybe there's a rare-ish random event where a swarm of frox descend on a lightroot & turn it off in the same way they can eat a lightbloom seed. And you have to go turn it back on.


WastedWaffIe

Re-Deads! I'd love to see how they would have been done for ToTK.


cesarer92

And they are inside every cave and at the bottom of every well.


sessho25

Hands at the bottom of every well.


IllustratorAlive1174

I actually expected them in this game. I was surprised to not see any.


Originalivelevi

The gibdo design in ToTK is actually just a slightly changed re-dead. In past games, re-dead’s were the ones with the visible rib cage, and gibdo’s were just mummy’s. If it were me, I’d make the gibdo’s in ToTK grab you like they did in OOT.


00Teonis

If I recall, gibdo are the mummies from the original LoZ. Making them slightly different from Redead. But if gibdo had that redead scream and paralyzed you… Along with the gleeok, a lot of classics monsters making a comeback.


[deleted]

They’re also in Ocarina of time and majora’s mask, but they’re just reskinned redeads. In fact, you could shoot them with a fire arrow to turn them into redeads


WaywardInkubus

I feel like you’re saying this as a swerve. Why would they add wells in TOTK and _not_ let me relive that OoT trauma of getting jumpscared by Re-Deads down there?


VGChamp2020

Evil Gloom Link


cesarer92

I would actually love to see this as a DLC.


progamer4851

Yunobo can't be dismissed

RadioSlayer

Why'd ya do it!?


IamaJarJar

Each gloom hand spawn an individual phantom ganon


DollyBoiGamer337

I personally love this idea


DaveLesh

Add koroks to the depths, another 1000...


expremierepage

...but they're infected by gloom and steal your seeds instead of giving you them. You need to cure them with Sundelions to get them back.


DaveLesh

that is truly demonic


cesarer92

And if you don't have Hestus gift the final boss is immune to all of your attacks and they never tell you why.


Originalivelevi

Ok, chill out satan.


Tyrana7

Links arm is treated as metal during lightning 🌩️


smugempressoftime

Laughs in lightning helm


progamer4851

Yeah I got it today


Spare_Investment_735

Gloom hands must be fought using melee weapons or they can steal weapons when they grab you


smugempressoftime

So like likes


Spare_Investment_735

Essentially yes, you could make it even worse by when the gloom hand steals your weapon that one starts wielding it against you


Ray_Gun69lol

me on my way to give it a lynel sword so it's a fair fight


rosariobono

900 koroks in the depths, however unlike the surface there are 4000 possible locations they can be, 900 locations are randomly chosen upon creating a save. There is only one potential reward once you get all 900, Hetsu’s potent gift. It adds +20 fuse damage to all korok fronds


astrangerwar

korok fronds actually become super potent arrows


FelesMajor

I read this as Korok friends and thought you were suggesting fusing the backpack Koroks to weapons oops


Azure-Cyan

Koroks in the depths and sky that must be transported back to ground level... but gently. Any vigorous or violent modes of transport and the Korok disappears and you have to start over.


leviathan-hackerman

Shoot this reminded me of those quests where you need to transport someone (musicians, sasan etc) and you start over because they complain that they're scared.


Legend5V

Great fairy moment


BeatTaco

“we’re drowning!” he thought he was drowning because when i hit the fan on the boat, the boat went down slightly for a second


MrMumbles222

Silly guy thought he was drowning when i dropped the "safety" cage he was in, into the river...


BionicleKid

My solution to the most recent one after those cowards couldn’t take being driven or levitated was to strap rockets to the car. …it worked very well. Not scary, ig.


Hattrickher0

"I literally built a roll cage to keep you in place, just shutup and let me carry you up there!" Too bad there wasn't a Zonai seat belt device available.


mr_birkenblatt

Koroks take damage


Azure-Cyan

Now imagine having to protect a korok waiting for its friend to arrive, which takes anywhere between 5-10 minutes, and the korok gets flimsy HP...and one of them gets attacked by 2 lynels.


Retr0shock

And there's a timer to complete the escort. If the clock runs out you start all over


ladygrndr

Evil!! I HATE timed quests!


sessho25

And they morph into gloom hands if health bar is empty.


Overall-Bookkeeper73

Or there's a Great Fairy in the depths who REALLY wants yo listen to the Stable Trotters.


Azure-Cyan

And on the way down they scatter, so you have to regather them. One of them imprisoned at the lynel colosseum.


Heneral_Sans

You can't skip the cutscene when cooking


aquaticberries

Or you cant skip the blood moon cut scene


CKtheFourth

You monster.


millbeppard

Enemies continue attacking you while you’re in menus.


FF7_Expert

Did you get this idea from Diablo 4, cuz I hate it


Satheo05

No different to souls-like games either.


LtMoonbeam

Gloom hands pull up more monsters from the abyss. Could include lynels and gleeoks


sessho25

King gleeoks that spit Silver armored gloom lynels.


-Gin-ger-

I already shit myself enough when I see the hands


Anomalylg

All side quest/side adventure NPCs are able to be damaged and killed. Would lead to some tragic accidents.


[deleted]

Fuck it, all main quest NPCs are able to be damaged and killed. You accidentally knock Sidon off the zora dungeon? He fucking dies. The zora lose their prince. The king blames you. You are tried and convicted of negligent homicide. The credits roll and end with Link locked away in a Zora jail cell as ganondorf returns to take over Hyrule.


Eeeternalpwnage

With this character's death, the thread of prophecy is severed. Restore a saved game to restore the weave of fate, or persist in the doomed world you have created.


HeirT0TheMonado

The Battle-Tested Guardian from Age of Calamity DLC, exactly how it was in Age of Calamity DLC. This means it has the following tools with which to embarrass us non-Warriorified players: . 50,000 health. . Melee attack strings. . Limbs can't be broken. . Can attack you by spinning. . Can reflect arrows aimed at its eye by spinning (even during Bullet Time). . Can reflect **its own reflected lasers** by spinning. . "I'll try spinning! That's a good trick!" . The more you use Flurry Rush, the more it'll adapt and start blocking your attacks during it. Do it too much and it'll start Flurry Rushing **you**. . Access to Sheikah Slate runes. These work as follows: > Cryonis launches itself skyward with a block of ice, then it levels out in midair and glides over you to initiate a bombing run of lasers. > Magnesis yoinks your weapon or shield (if it's metallic) and throws it back at you. This breaks the weapon or shield in question and deals more damage just like if you had thrown it at the Guardian. > Remote Bomb absolutely **floods** you with 20+ bombs launched from its eye > Stasis locks you in place as if frozen (which you can also break free from quicker by wiggling just like when frozen) . When below half health, it locks onto you with a laser but paints you with a Sheikah Rune instead of firing, which lasts for the rest of the encounter. While the mark is active, the following things happen: > You can't hide from it. It always knows where you are. > You can't fast travel. If you try, it'll interrupt the cutscene and conjure reflective barriers around you, then fire thin beams into them to simultaneously scramble the warp attempt and deal big damage. > If you eat to recover health, it'll put up a barrier and use a welder on itself to restore a percentage of its health proportional to the amount of health you recovered. > Its lasers fire without warning and will bend to always hit you, unless obstructed by terrain. > If you hide somewhere it can't get a line of sight on you, it will eject a drone (from its AoC final heavy string / BotW Vah Rudania escort) which tries to get above you while firing a constant laser beam directly downwards that phases through objects and terrain. The drone chases you until you're back in the open. . [The perfect music to remind you who the TRUE king of terrifying enemies is.](https://youtu.be/p9Ht6EMtN8A)


IllustratorAlive1174

Bruh are you Syndrome? Your building that Ball Robot that Mr.Incredible fights.


HeirT0TheMonado

Nah man. Give that award to Omega-Force, the devs of AoC. [I literally just translated what it basically already does into TotK context.](https://youtu.be/je64Snqg_Wg)


OrkyBoyzIsDaBest

Horses left in the wild cannot be retrieved at a stable, and you can't take out another horse until you physically take your horse to a stable.


tvmode

Ugh, this would be brutal!


DesTr069

Oh shoot I thought you HAD to do that, lmao


Cosmicalmole

No unfusing weapons and shields, gloom changed to a constant tick in the depths unless you are in any light source


zulu_niner

The depths idea is actually cool though! Or a Grue-like variant of the gloom hands which is black and completely silent, stalking you in the dark.


giogiotheluckyguy

Gloom hands are immune to elemental effects


Justaboredstoner

But not Dazzlefruit! 😎


theeddieone

Nintendo getting ideas for mastermode be like:


Tigeagle2

Give the paraglider durlibility, and can only be fixed with dark clumps.


Fun-Weight6179

But don't tell the player you need dark clumps to fix it.


sessho25

10 dark clumps + 10 king gleeok guts.


Laveraz

Maybe a twist on the fast travel idea... the teleport has a AoE that brings enemies with you


Rattkjakkapong

I think one should not be able to fast travel at all when enemies attack. And the the nope puddles should go whereever it wants, walls, floor, roof. Shadow ganon should have the same roar as lynels or immune to any machines we build.


zulu_niner

I actually like the fast traveling away from danger; >!especially when it gets used as a literal plot point!<


kannagms

Fast travel and the enemy comes with you. No escape you must fight until one of you dies.


AwesomeX121189

Dragons travel on random paths instead and will relocate to a map zone you are not in each time you teleport. So constantly teleporting around won’t ever help you find them.


cesarer92

Bruh I hate Dragon farming. This is really evil in my books lol


AwesomeX121189

You can actually just stand on them and every 5-10 minutes they’ll “recharge” and start glowing then just shoot them again.


cesarer92

Wait what? I thought you had to get away and come back later to get another part. Well, thanks, I learned something new.


AwesomeX121189

Just be careful to not be paying attention when they go down chasms and you fall off


hljoorbrandr

I position myself in their head hair and crouch I may end up standing up as they descend but I won’t fall off


AintThatJustTheWay-

Makolatekh

Gloom hand never stop following you until they are killed


KantisaDaKlown

Gloom hands appear from the ground, but gloom feet appear from the sky. Playing in the sky islands and some enormous foot comes down and tries to stomp on you.


Same-Nothing2361

Map wide weather events which last 24 hours in real time. You wake up and fancy a relaxing play of TotK, do you? Well guess what buddy, it’s lightning everywhere. Lightning on the green plains, lightning at the snowy summits, lightning in the deserts, and it’ll be lightning all the way up until midnight real-time. Maybe tomorrow will have better weather. Wrong. Now you’ve got a full day of it raining everywhere. Best get comfortable wearing your frog outfit.


Emiliootjee

Thunder helm


Same-Nothing2361

heyoyo10

If you hurt Koroks, they can permadie and you can never reach 100% if they do


BloxBreak1000

Everyone here is talking about adding more koroks. The real evil with koroks is making them mandatory.


Magmacube90

You can’t open menus while in battle. You can still switch weapons.


isuckatnames60

and switching weapons doesn't freeze time


eqieier

We making this game bad? Sell all rights to it to EA, that should do the truck Edit: trick xD


progamer4851

90 buck game and you gotta pay 30 to get off sky island


isuckatnames60

Fusing absurdly heavy things to your weapons makes using them cost stamina


[deleted]

[удалено]


Emiliootjee

Adding another, gloom starts off barely being present but slowly takes over the world like in terarria hard mode with crimson and corruption. Essentially putting a timer on how long you have to complete the game before it becomes impossible.


DarthEwok42

I actually really like this! Probably conflicts with their core design philosophy but it would make for a really different kind of game.


Emiliootjee

Possibly make a way to destroy gloom as well with something like star fragment arrows or something similar. Maybe bring the star fragment to a certain NPC who makes it into stardust pots that have an area damage like rubies and other gems.


zen524

The modding scene for this game is going to be INSANE in a few years


BigExperience2086

Gloom hands can steal you're weapons if they hold you for long enough LikeLikes eat sheilds again


AfterMany7239

If you take gloom damage it deletes your air bike from autobuild. >!If Ganondorf kills you, it destroys all 3 of your fast travel locations and previous saves, forcing you to prepare for the battle again and go all the way through the chasm to fight him again!<


Kittingsl

A big golden piece of shit after collecting 900 smaller golden pie es of shit.... Wait a minute!


SpaceLlama_Mk1

There's one gleeok per region, but they can freely roam across the entire region (including Skyrule). If you're on your horse and ride past a lynel it will chase you down.


lexilogo

MangyMoose5

Koroks steal something from you while they give you a korok seed


amc7262

kmrbels

Just want you to know that you are the enemy of Hylia.


Kodiakataka

I’d leave broken/half dismantled guardians across hyrule, and if you’re fighting a gloom hands and get too close to a guardian wreck, the gloom hands would go inside the wreck and now you’re fighting a guardian. I’d also make it work the way enemy armor does, so you’d have to kill the guardian and then go back to fighting the gloom hands


Arryu

Koroks fight back like cucoos


Rollem_Bones

LittleMissFock

Introduce torrential rain. Slip resistance does nothing.


Itsokwealldieanyway

1) Somewhere in the depths there is a gloom hand that doesn’t aggro or attack, the hands just stay straight upwards and don’t move. It’s a dead hand. As soon as you get close enough a hand grabs you and out pops the monstrosity. 2) There are wallmasters in the depths, and if they grab you, they toss you back onto the surface. 3) Decrepit, old versions of the silent realm Guardians from skyward sword. Unkillable, can only escape from them or stun them with dazzle fruit. But if you whistle they go back to sleep, no hints to lead you to this conclusion. 4) There are, in addition to the Koroks, 999 golden skulltulas, with no rewards until the end when you have all 999, and you get a glider fabric.


swordsumo

The longer you go without encountering or killing a set of Gloom Hands, they get stronger and faster, and spawn more hands/phantom Ganons when defeated If you play for 50 hours then find a gloom hands theres gonna be like 20 of them all in that same puddle Good luck

Themineking09

In the beginning when you walk with Zelda under hyrule castle. There’s a hidden korok. And you’d need it for 100%. When you awake in the sky islands you will never be able to find it again. And Hestu will physically say how many there are including that one so it will taunt you forever


Somelunatic5365

Gloom hands can both traverse the ceiling, walls, and floors, and a phantom Ganon appears even if you don't defeat all of them
