168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Tears of the Kingdom is out now which means many of you will be getting to grips with the sequel and all of Link's new abilities over the weekend. The poor protagonist appears to have forgotten the skills he learned near the start of 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Breath of the Wild. Don't feel too sorry for him though as he has picked up four new ones to replace them, one of which started life as a debug cheat during development and eventually became a feature in the finished game.
That ability is ascend, the one you may have seen in Tears of the Kingdom's trailers that allows players to fire Link up through the ceiling. An absolute godsend to those of you not looking forward to another 50 hours of climbing. It also negates the need to backtrack a lot of the time, and it's actually director Hidemaro Fujibayashi 's want to cut that particular part of the sequel out of his own playthroughs that led to ascend being added to the game.
“The ascend ability was actually the result of a debug feature ꧟that we have in the game,” Fujibayashi told . “When I was exploring the caves, I would get to the destination where I was trying to get to, and once I checked it out, I would just use the debug code to get to the top. And I thought, well, maybe this is something that can be usable in the game.”
Producer Eiji Aonuma agreed with Fujibayashi that it was “a pain to go back” so the decision was made to turn ascend into an ability. The pair also admit they think cheating is fun, which is why they've given Zelda players so many more oppꦯortunities to play fast and loose with their game in Tears of the Kingdom﷽.
The only problem with that, as highlighted by Aonuma, is trying to anticipate everything those millions of players might try to do. “If you give someone the ability to just pass through a ceiling anywhere, there are all sorts of possibilities to account for,” the producer explained. “We need to make sure there aren’t locations where ꦆyou’ll pass through the roof aꦗnd find nothing there because of some data-loading issue.”
Hopefully Nintendo has accounted for every instance of players shooting up through Tears of the Kingdom's ceilings and there isn't a place you'll use it where you end up trapped in a void. One thing I can't imagine Aonuma and Fujibayashi foresaw was someone using Link's ultrahand ability to create 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:a r🎉obot with a flamethrower for a penis. Yes, someone really has already done that.
