I hope they add a sacred stable or something like the other side of the map and that sacred stable allows the use of registering the lord of the mountain. It could be like a shrine in a mountain or something where the lord of the mountain watches over the whole of hyrule.
Juan Martín Ferreira I watched a video about, you can ride it but it will take unlimited amounts of stamina no matter what you do so you can't register it or better yet even mount it barely...
I saw the Lord of the Mountain because I was searching for shooting stars and I saw the blue glow thinking it was a star. When I got there, I said out loud, “WHAT THE F-- IS THAT?”
...I saw that blue light, but I didn't get to investigate it yet because the skeleton bokoblins caught me off guard and kicked me off the cliff I was on... I didn't mark the spot on the map... I thought it was just a star fragment too... But, after this video, I thought of Kas' riddle song lyric I'm going back to find it again...
De-whey ??? You don’t know me so don’t accuse me of lying, first of all. Second, it’s not a lie, but it was one of the first times I was searching for shooting stars.
You actually get 3 attempts to tame the Lord of the Mountain each time it spawns. If it runs away, just walk away from the pond to the edge of the summit and then back to it. You'll hear a melodic jingle and see it fade back into view, just as calm as it was before you approached.
That is my plan. I just got to start playing this game because i gave it to my Brothers and my son instead of getting it for myself so now I am seeing what all I can do with Satori before he inevitably goes away to guard the lands again.
i don't think you are able to bring w horse inside the castle, but it would be interesting to see if the guardians in front of it would attack you or even spawn
The more I expose myself to this game the more I love it, the beauty of the world, the interactions with quirky and lovable characters, the freedom to adventure and find your own path I want this game so badly ;-;
This is how I'd like to keep lord of the mountain: -Wait for the blue lights - approach it (you have 3 tries) - feed it a star fragment - its glow's gonna intensify - mount it - now everywhere you go the blue light of satoris mountain will follow you as well as the music, and places that have it's own music (stables, villages, etc) will still play their themes but in an adapted version to match with satoris mountain's. - during the first night, there's gonna be a event like the blood moon but this time it's the soul moon, a very bright blue moon will rise accompanied by a very pretty light show and a cutscene will occur where zelda's voice will narrate something like "Link, this is the Soul Moon, it's insurgency means you have entered the silent realm and the souls from both mortal and immortal ones walks the same path. This is a time for inner growth, so allow this ethereal god guide you towards your spiriual fortification". - After the cutscene, a new sidequest would appear, where you have to, while still mounted in lord of the mountain, ride around hyrule and find things simlar to star fragments but shaped like petals until you fill your vessel (like skyward sword's silent realms). -Sucess will grant you the favor of the lord of the mountain and you'll have him at you dispposal anytime you want -but instead of at the stable, Lord of the Mountain will be at the little stable by Link's house - LotM sounds like a cool enough reward, but if anyone wants to add to the list, feel free to coment with what bonus effects riding LotM would grant us.
@@zeddy2284 Yes i made my own version of how LotM could be kept as a companion. I think nintendo really missed an opportunity to make a very cool additional side-quest.
I don't know if this little bit of info will help, but I thought I'd put it out here anyway. I saw the green glow earlier today while I was "grinding" Star Fragments. I was using the technique where you set up camp on top of Dueling Peaks, pass 8 days for the next full moon, and watch for the shooting star to fall between 10pm and 3am. I've seen a few people say that you should make a save and reset the game in case the shooting star doesn't show up. But I found that to be pretty unnecessary, as the shooting star showed up every single full moon night for me... except for one. The 8th one. And on that night, what did I see instead? You guessed it. The green glow. My assumption is that maybe the green glow spawns in place of the shooting star once every 8 full moons, or once every 64 "days". I'm assuming a lot of crap here, but that's just been my experience. (Edited 'cause grammar)
Eatinggamer 39 Stalhorse dies when it turns day, not gonna happen. Lord of the Mountain is already op enough with infinite stamina and no random enemy spawns. Lynels are considered one of the strongest enemies in the game, which would basically be the aggressive version of the Lord of the Mountain.
Hey everyone, thanks for checking out this video. It's come to my attention that I'm REALLY not that great at Japanese names. I'm just a German/Irish guy from Jersey trying my best. Also I like calling them "Blurpees" cuz it's soooooooo much more fun to say. 👍🏼😬👍🏼
I agree from a game making standpoint it's an Easter egg dedicated to Iwata From an in game context I think the sage is the sage Ganondorf killed in Twilight Princess (if this takes place in the Child Timeline)
Nah dude, its the Adult Victory timeline. It makes sense with the Koroks even existing to rebuild the land at the end of Wind Waker, it fits the idea of the New Land they found in Spirit Tracks, and there's an obvious Wind Waker vibe to this game. But it could be one of the sages that died at the hands of Ganon in the past way way after Wind Waker.
You need to build up relationship first. Keep petting it. Once you reach 100% bond with it, it won't disappear when you dismount it. Then you can feed it apples or carrots
y'know I don't think that a yiga clan guard will simply spawn whenever you "aren't protected by mr. satoru-horse" I think that would be the "YOURE GONNA GET US CURSED" that the stable guy talked about XD
Jason Walthers Yiga clan guards do simply spawn whenever you "aren't protected by Mr. Satoru-horse". After a certain story point, they do spawn randomly

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO This is amazing! Thanks for the lore dive! I found him a few times and have made it my MISSION to tame him but I'm heartbroken you can't keep him. But it's so much more heartwarming that you can't. I'll have to just watch him from afar and catch the light beam out of the corner of my eye and smile.
I'm glad I didn't go with my 1st instinct and Shoot it in the head with my arrow...because at the Angle I 1st saw it, it Looked like a Giant ..err.. Blurpee? (w/e you call those bunnies)
yea, big Studio Ghibli influence in this game, princess mononoke and laputa: castle in the sky, as well as a bit of Nauticaa as well! i started playing a week and a half ago, and im still wandering doing god knows what, and slowly peeling away all those rich layers!!!!
u knows what every time i play this game its make me a lot of Deja vu, if we ignore a title "Zelda"out of this game, you got most of the important character Hayao Miyazaki create for his anime and a ton of object in this game maybe nintendo did buy ghibli anime copyright, who knows?
Thats mad impressive that you, Austin John and other zelda fans figured this out...im in a state of awe that this symbolism is in a game....but it only seems legit that its in breath of the wild. Kudos gamers....kudos.
btw, you can get princess Zelda's horse, in Outskirt Stable, there is an old guy with a quest, talk to him then go to Safula Hill, when you find the horse mount it and register it, then talk to the old guy again and he will give you the saddle that princess Zelda used for the horse ;), it would be awesome if Austin did a tutorial on it and mentioned me :)
GameCityGaming Why couldn't it...If Link and Zelda always get reincarnated...Then why cant Zelda and possibly Epona be the same...Bound by fate and trust...Just a thought..
this video is awesome. such an amazing tribute to one of the greatest businessmen in the gaming industry. btw your videos are very good, quick to the point and your wordplay is well done, you don't waste to much time and keep things moving, keep up the great work!
Austin John Plays Now that Ive beaten this Zelda which was a amazing game. The puzzles and envirements. But just one flaw for me. Its Zelda, why in the holy link, its the Master Sword opinal, I mean its Zelda you shouldn't be able to beat the game with out it..it doesn't feel right..😢
The only reason I liked music class. I remember we would a use these type of flutes and we performed that piece after a week or so... I would always secretly hope a hot guy had played the recorder just before me. It was like elementary school, damn it, I was always weird. 😂😂😂
One of the most beautiful gaming videos I've seen on youtube, I dont know if it means a whole lot coming from a random but I've never given out that compliment before.
I also believe that it is the sage of water ganon killed! Its true that Ganondorf murdered him in Arbiter´s grounds. However, Satori Mountain is VERY close to Gerudo Desert, so if it is the sage of water reincarnated, he might want to move to a less arid environment, even if its not full of water like Zora´s domain. A mountain is perfect, since its cold-ish, and closer to the sky so if it rains it gets there first.
Jyst found him, tamed him first try with just over 2 stamina wheels... he's amazing, I don't want to stop riding around with him. Great vid, glad you see he's a very special horse to Nintendo.
Currently at 114 and trying to find the remaining needles in the haystack. Don´t wanna look up anything or use the Shiekah sensor so i´ll just keep on searching and searching....
At 113 I gave up and put on the sheikah sensor to find two more, the last five I looked up their location on an online map. I found some pretty good hidden ones without the sensor and 3 out of 5 that I had to look up where pretty out in the open.
Satori are also a kind of yokai said to be child reincarnations of mountain gods that were corrupted and became monsters; it's said that if you hit one, it runs away due to shock since who would hit a monster?
Dude that is sooooooo damn awesome that they did this and that you did all this research and stuff man !! REALLY GREAT VIDEO !!! I loved this dude !!! fantastic job!
For some reason I have always been calling them Blurpees also. I only discovered this channel this past week and have been calling them that since less than a week after launch when I discovered them.
Thank you for this deep dive treasure trove of information. When I finally tamed it, I only just got down the mountain before I thought "I should take your pictures". Snagged a lovely shot and it scoots off as I appraise my photo. Quickly Googling for answers gave me the jist to calm me down after ...
Marvelous analysis, thank you so much for your work on investigating it, I just ran into the lord of the mountain and I was researching it when I found this video, great work!
I was searching for the mogg latan shrine to see the lord of the mountain I searched for whole 6 days (in-game) and found out I was on the wrong mountain😂 (I didn’t have ridgeland tower)
Oh I'm so glad for this video. I just encountered this horse tonight. I saw a falling star in that direction. Started fast traveling toward where I though it dropped, saw a blue glow and thought that had to be it. I investigated and was really surprised by what I saw. I didn't even know what to google, tried "glowing horse and rabbits botw" and a bunch of other stuff and nada. I'm glad to find out you can't register the horse. I spent a lot of time trying to find this thing again, and haven't had any luck. Knowing what's required to tame it, and the fact you can't register it makes me think it's not worth really going for that much til end-game. Still, super cool, I'll keep a watch out for it.
So being so amazed with what I found out about watching this video I waited and finally saw 'The Lord of the Mountain'!!! So I did the same thing, ate some sneaky food, put on my Sheik gear and tried to approach it! Obviously failed but then as I turned around facing my back towards the pond I heard it reappear and I turned around and it disappeared on me again, and then in a split second, he appears for a third time as if he was simply saying hello. Damn I got crazy goosebumps! Love this game, especially never really being into Zelda growing up, I appreciate the title even more and wish I got around to Zelda when I was younger. But without a doubt, always chose Link, or Zelda/Sheik playing Melee!
i accidentally discovered the lord of the mountain today. i was just making my way towards a tower and i suddenly see the glow from a mountain and i was so close to just ignoring it, but then i thought maybe it could be a memory so i went to it. there were so many mountain goats in the area, i was thinking ok wtf but didn’t think too much of it, and then i reach the top and find IT. so many blupees and the lord of the mountain right there. when i tell you i literally gasped in awe. i tried to mount it but only had a wheel and a half of stamina and it disappeared, but then it appeared quite quickly again and i mounted it again and managed to tame it by eating food that replenished my stamina. ahh, it was so majestic and magical... probably will be my favourite moment in zelda ever
Reaction to seeing Lord of the Mountain: MONEEEEEEEY My reaction to seeing blue light DANGER DANGER STEER CLEAR! STEER CLEAR! So I ran the opposite direction...
Great video! RIP Satoru Iwata- you would be proud of how amazing it turned out. Would have been awesome to show the bridle hidden beneath the cherry blossom tree, as well. Another weird coincidence.. 💓 Gives your horse increased abilities, pretty awesome.
I noticed a beautiful blue glow on a mountain, followed it, thinking it was a shooting star, climbed up it and saw this badboy last night. First I saw the Blupees, and shot one, but THEN I noticed the horse! I didn’t know what to do! I tried to mount it but it disappeared. Knowing I can’t keep it, I don’t feel as bad. Such a beautiful steed.
Ur incorrect pronunciation of Iwata is annoying me - especially because u try to put on a Japanese accent each time u say it and it's still wrong. Iwata not aiwata
I don't know if anyone has posted this but the Lord of the Mountain isn't the only horse with infinite stamina. There is also the giant horse over in Taobab Highlands.
Breath of the wild is an amazing game it's full of wonder and mystery around every corner and every hill top you climb. It is a master piece of an open world game. I have been playing games for years and this is everything I could ever hope for. And this little bit right here makes it even more magical
Not sure if this was said already, but you don't need sneaky clothes and if he vanishes you can get him to reappear right away. Just climb the rocks and as soon as you're at the top he reappears. If you glide down you can just land on him. I had 3 full wheels when I found him so I tamed him in one shot. Also you can dismount him with out him running away.
Farming tip: In two small forests east on Satori Mountain, closest to the top there are loads of apples, and closest to the path there are herbs and flowers.
Another interesting note is that "Satori" can also refer to a kind of mountain yokai in Japanese folklore that are thought to be the incarnations of mountain gods, hence the title "Lord of the Mountains". They are named "Satori" because they are able to read "satoru" (people's minds). So this shiny mount seems to be play on multiple things.
Partially. At the foot of the mountain there's also the ruins of a sage's temple. And on the mountain itself there are a camping site and an orchard with gardening tools. It may be meant to symbolise Iwata's spirit watching over but it is also the in-game it is the reincarnated soul of a literal sage that once watched over the wildlife of the mountain that sits next to his temple.
And ofc you used hall of the mountain king in the background i'm screaming this is what my heritage have given the world- dramatic music(i'm not related to the maker of the song but he's from my country)
I mounted it by paragliding strait down onto its back. I was only wearing a sneaky head gear, no sneaky elixirs, no other gear, just some stamina boosters and I got it the first try. I think that's much easier than sneaking up to it on foot.
I hope they add a sacred stable or something like the other side of the map and that sacred stable allows the use of registering the lord of the mountain. It could be like a shrine in a mountain or something where the lord of the mountain watches over the whole of hyrule.
That is a really cool idea, but I don't think it will happen. They put him on that mountain for a reason :)
Juan Martín Ferreira yesss! that or a bear fuck that would be badass
Juan Martín Ferreira I watched a video about, you can ride it but it will take unlimited amounts of stamina no matter what you do so you can't register it or better yet even mount it barely...
I think it should also let you register any mount, like deers and bears >:)
and goats, bulls and rito!
I saw the Lord of the Mountain because I was searching for shooting stars and I saw the blue glow thinking it was a star. When I got there, I said out loud, “WHAT THE F-- IS THAT?”

I'm going back to find it again...
Lol same exact thing as me
Well that’s a lie, if you thought it was a shooting star, you might want to go to the doctors
De-whey ??? You don’t know me so don’t accuse me of lying, first of all. Second, it’s not a lie, but it was one of the first times I was searching for shooting stars.
You actually get 3 attempts to tame the Lord of the Mountain each time it spawns. If it runs away, just walk away from the pond to the edge of the summit and then back to it. You'll hear a melodic jingle and see it fade back into view, just as calm as it was before you approached.

i don't think you are able to bring w horse inside the castle, but it would be interesting to see if the guardians in front of it would attack you or even spawn
As he said, if the enemies are already in the overworld, they will attack you. But Yiga Clan and skeletons won't appear
It also pays homage to the Forest Spirit from an anime movie call “Princess Mononoke.” Thats where it drew inspiration from.

This is how I'd like to keep lord of the mountain:
-Wait for the blue lights
- approach it (you have 3 tries)
- feed it a star fragment
- its glow's gonna intensify
- mount it
- now everywhere you go the blue light of satoris mountain will follow you as well as the music, and places that have it's own music (stables, villages, etc) will still play their themes but in an adapted version to match with satoris mountain's.
- during the first night, there's gonna be a event like the blood moon but this time it's the soul moon, a very bright blue moon will rise accompanied by a very pretty light show and a cutscene will occur where zelda's voice will narrate something like "Link, this is the Soul Moon, it's insurgency means you have entered the silent realm and the souls from both mortal and immortal ones walks the same path. This is a time for inner growth, so allow this ethereal god guide you towards your spiriual fortification".
- After the cutscene, a new sidequest would appear, where you have to, while still mounted in lord of the mountain, ride around hyrule and find things simlar to star fragments but shaped like petals until you fill your vessel (like skyward sword's silent realms).
-Sucess will grant you the favor of the lord of the mountain and you'll have him at you dispposal anytime you want
-but instead of at the stable, Lord of the Mountain will be at the little stable by Link's house
- LotM sounds like a cool enough reward, but if anyone wants to add to the list, feel free to coment with what bonus effects riding LotM would grant us.

7amo0ody007 That horse couldn't have survived for 100 years.
is the stat any good?
GameCityGaming Why couldn't it...If Link and Zelda always get reincarnated...Then why cant Zelda and possibly Epona be the same...Bound by fate and trust...Just a thought..
this video is awesome. such an amazing tribute to one of the greatest businessmen in the gaming industry. btw your videos are very good, quick to the point and your wordplay is well done, you don't waste to much time and keep things moving, keep up the great work!
All you had to do was walk away for a second and he comes right back. He reappears literally seconds later, and you waited a week. LOL.
I enjoy your guides and Info more than anyone else’s. Very informative and I think your theory’s are right on personally.
hahaha in the hall of the mountain king. such a great piece

Austin John Plays Now that Ive beaten this Zelda which was a amazing game. The puzzles and envirements. But just one flaw for me. Its Zelda, why in the holy link, its the Master Sword opinal, I mean its Zelda you shouldn't be able to beat the game with out it..it doesn't feel right..😢
The only reason I liked music class. I remember we would a use these type of flutes and we performed that piece after a week or so... I would always secretly hope a hot guy had played the recorder just before me. It was like elementary school, damn it, I was always weird. 😂😂😂
One of the most beautiful gaming videos I've seen on youtube, I dont know if it means a whole lot coming from a random but I've never given out that compliment before.

Hi-YAH!!watta
What I love about this is that... it's just there. There's no particular story reason it exists. It's just part of this living, breathing world.
I think that it is the sage that ganondorf murdered in twilight princess.
But ganondorf murdered the sage in arbiters grounds
I also believe that it is the sage of water ganon killed! Its true that Ganondorf murdered him in Arbiter´s grounds. However, Satori Mountain is VERY close to Gerudo Desert, so if it is the sage of water reincarnated, he might want to move to a less arid environment, even if its not full of water like Zora´s domain. A mountain is perfect, since its cold-ish, and closer to the sky so if it rains it gets there first.
Jyst found him, tamed him first try with just over 2 stamina wheels... he's amazing, I don't want to stop riding around with him. Great vid, glad you see he's a very special horse to Nintendo.
It's an incredible game, one if the greatest ones I've ever played
5:14 my heart started beating at the exact beat of the music
The forest spirit wants his head back..
The guy at the stable immediately recognizes it and tells you to go away. Someone came riding another legendary spirit as per usual
will there be another episode of "Shrine Hunters" I'm trying to get the "Of The Wild" Set
SolarWolf the guidebook was so helpful in my shrine hunting
Currently at 114 and trying to find the remaining needles in the haystack. Don´t wanna look up anything or use the Shiekah sensor so i´ll just keep on searching and searching....
koyzish Me too I'm at 110. no sheikah sensor, but I believe I visited every part of the map. Even been through half the castle and got back out again.
Have you guys found any of the hidden ones? There's a few you have to bomb walls, and the side of a cliff for one, to gain access to their caves.
At 113 I gave up and put on the sheikah sensor to find two more, the last five I looked up their location on an online map. I found some pretty good hidden ones without the sensor and 3 out of 5 that I had to look up where pretty out in the open.
hearing "in the hall of the mountain king" in the background was the best easter egg in this vid. love it!
Satori are also a kind of yokai said to be child reincarnations of mountain gods that were corrupted and became monsters; it's said that if you hit one, it runs away due to shock since who would hit a monster?
Dude that is sooooooo damn awesome that they did this and that you did all this research and stuff man !! REALLY GREAT VIDEO !!! I loved this dude !!! fantastic job!
I got lucky and accidentally found the glow, then caught him on the first try.
U r a god
Ok I know I am like super late to the party, but this video just made my day. I love your content! ❤️
Where do you get the extra R when you pronounce Blupee? Blue-pee! Not Blerpy.
TrueTydin but blurpee is sooooo much more fun to say. 😬
Fair response :)
Derpy Blurpee
For some reason I have always been calling them Blurpees also. I only discovered this channel this past week and have been calling them that since less than a week after launch when I discovered them.
TrueTydin He also mispronounced Homage, Ephemeral, and Iwata.
Thank you for this deep dive treasure trove of information.
When I finally tamed it, I only just got down the mountain before I thought "I should take your pictures". Snagged a lovely shot and it scoots off as I appraise my photo. Quickly Googling for answers gave me the jist to calm me down after ...
when i was riding him, a rock hit me and i fell of him. then he ran away and i was like: "F*cking RNG"
Marvelous analysis, thank you so much for your work on investigating it, I just ran into the lord of the mountain and I was researching it when I found this video, great work!
I was searching for the mogg latan shrine to see the lord of the mountain I searched for whole 6 days (in-game) and found out I was on the wrong mountain😂 (I didn’t have ridgeland tower)
Oh I'm so glad for this video.
I just encountered this horse tonight. I saw a falling star in that direction. Started fast traveling toward where I though it dropped, saw a blue glow and thought that had to be it. I investigated and was really surprised by what I saw. I didn't even know what to google, tried "glowing horse and rabbits botw" and a bunch of other stuff and nada.
I'm glad to find out you can't register the horse. I spent a lot of time trying to find this thing again, and haven't had any luck. Knowing what's required to tame it, and the fact you can't register it makes me think it's not worth really going for that much til end-game.
Still, super cool, I'll keep a watch out for it.
I thought it was just a reference to princess mononoke
The mountain king music goes so well when he is theorizing. I could barely hear what he was saying; I was laughing so hard!😂
basically princess mononoke reference, the like games open world feel isnt already inspired by princess mononoke
So being so amazed with what I found out about watching this video I waited and finally saw 'The Lord of the Mountain'!!! So I did the same thing, ate some sneaky food, put on my Sheik gear and tried to approach it! Obviously failed but then as I turned around facing my back towards the pond I heard it reappear and I turned around and it disappeared on me again, and then in a split second, he appears for a third time as if he was simply saying hello. Damn I got crazy goosebumps! Love this game, especially never really being into Zelda growing up, I appreciate the title even more and wish I got around to Zelda when I was younger. But without a doubt, always chose Link, or Zelda/Sheik playing Melee!
I would love to see the guy flooding satori mountain with bomb arrows, sounds hilarious
“Japan was made by a handful of brave men. Warriors, willing to give their lives for what seems to be a forgotten word: honor”
Guess you can say he is the Lord of the MOUNTain
I will see myself out
i accidentally discovered the lord of the mountain today. i was just making my way towards a tower and i suddenly see the glow from a mountain and i was so close to just ignoring it, but then i thought maybe it could be a memory so i went to it. there were so many mountain goats in the area, i was thinking ok wtf but didn’t think too much of it, and then i reach the top and find IT. so many blupees and the lord of the mountain right there. when i tell you i literally gasped in awe. i tried to mount it but only had a wheel and a half of stamina and it disappeared, but then it appeared quite quickly again and i mounted it again and managed to tame it by eating food that replenished my stamina. ahh, it was so majestic and magical... probably will be my favourite moment in zelda ever
Anyone else love the music 😂😂😂
" why are your eyes dialated?"
"I'm on Austin John Plays"
"Oh crap get him a medic!"
I remember riding the lord of the mountain with only four stamina vessels I am the best lord of the mountain tamer
For some reason the hall of the mountain king music you played made my heart racing
“En masse” is pronounced “en mass” (or “un mass”) not “en mah-say”
Dude you are a genius, that research was deep
Reaction to seeing Lord of the Mountain:
MONEEEEEEEY
My reaction to seeing blue light
DANGER DANGER STEER CLEAR! STEER CLEAR! So I ran the opposite direction...
Great video and quality tribute to a master.
no point if you can't keep the horse
Great video! RIP Satoru Iwata- you would be proud of how amazing it turned out. Would have been awesome to show the bridle hidden beneath the cherry blossom tree, as well. Another weird coincidence.. 💓 Gives your horse increased abilities, pretty awesome.
Eeh wata
You just earned yourself a subscriber :D! Loved it when Austin Powers showed up lol
Uhm actually all horses have infinite stamina. It regenerates after like 2 seconds.
I noticed a beautiful blue glow on a mountain, followed it, thinking it was a shooting star, climbed up it and saw this badboy last night. First I saw the Blupees, and shot one, but THEN I noticed the horse! I didn’t know what to do! I tried to mount it but it disappeared. Knowing I can’t keep it, I don’t feel as bad. Such a beautiful steed.
.... SATORI mountain .... LORD OF THE MOUNTAIN .... four eyes :P cmon
1:33 song name?
I completely just wandered upon this beautiful creature. I paused the game and immediately ran over here to find out more!
Ur incorrect pronunciation of Iwata is annoying me - especially because u try to put on a Japanese accent each time u say it and it's still wrong. Iwata not aiwata
Been playing BOTW and just saw this yesterday. This is making me tear up.
I don't know if anyone has posted this but the Lord of the Mountain isn't the only horse with infinite stamina. There is also the giant horse over in Taobab Highlands.
Breath of the wild is an amazing game it's full of wonder and mystery around every corner and every hill top you climb. It is a master piece of an open world game. I have been playing games for years and this is everything I could ever hope for. And this little bit right here makes it even more magical
I love the little animals. The blurpies (?) are so cute! The owl one!
Love how he has "In the hall of the mountain king" playing in the background
I have been looking for a good Zelda UA-cam I found you! Like and subscribed !
Really great channel Austin, thanks for your vids.
This was like a Game Theory, loved it, I’m subbing
My jaw dropped when I found this in-game on my own about a month ago... Such an amazing game
Not sure if this was said already, but you don't need sneaky clothes and if he vanishes you can get him to reappear right away. Just climb the rocks and as soon as you're at the top he reappears. If you glide down you can just land on him. I had 3 full wheels when I found him so I tamed him in one shot. Also you can dismount him with out him running away.
Enjoyed the thoroughness of this :)
Satori is the japanese forklore monster he read a person's mind. Satoru means originally "understanding" or "realizing".
Farming tip:
In two small forests east on Satori Mountain, closest to the top there are loads of apples, and closest to the path there are herbs and flowers.
Another interesting note is that "Satori" can also refer to a kind of mountain yokai in Japanese folklore that are thought to be the incarnations of mountain gods, hence the title "Lord of the Mountains". They are named "Satori" because they are able to read "satoru" (people's minds). So this shiny mount seems to be play on multiple things.
my mind melted in the middle of the video
Partially. At the foot of the mountain there's also the ruins of a sage's temple. And on the mountain itself there are a camping site and an orchard with gardening tools. It may be meant to symbolise Iwata's spirit watching over but it is also the in-game it is the reincarnated soul of a literal sage that once watched over the wildlife of the mountain that sits next to his temple.
LOL. I just discovered you today. Grats. I loved it. Thumbs up perhaps shared ;)
And ofc you used hall of the mountain king in the background i'm screaming this is what my heritage have given the world- dramatic music(i'm not related to the maker of the song but he's from my country)
I mounted it by paragliding strait down onto its back. I was only wearing a sneaky head gear, no sneaky elixirs, no other gear, just some stamina boosters and I got it the first try. I think that's much easier than sneaking up to it on foot.
I have found that the light from the mountain always appears around 5pm in the game, it's been 3 separate occasions where it has come up
Let it sink in that you tried to register the reborn soul of Iwata at a horse stable
