If it works, it works! Honestly great job coming up with such a creative and cheap fix to your problem

Trying this out for the first time, Its honestly really similar. No Apollo app means no reddit for me, unfortunately. If Lemmy can make a good mobile app and the community grows a bit I could see being a semi-daily user here.

I'm guessing something that fundamentally disrupts the patterns and movements you've memorized so well. Think random guardian timing in botw. Maybe messing with flurry rush timing, or dodge, or even perfect guards. Obviously a big boost to health.

I don't think they'll use the blessings any differently, this is a tight knit Zelda community, 99.9% of players will never self-limit their hearts lol. If I had my way, it would be a customizable master mode. Give players an option for how hard they want the gameplay to be so everyones happy. Examples would be like whether you want fast travel, limited hearts, stronger enemies, more enemies, inventory caps, maybe even hunger, etc.
