    When I told my fiancee about the Hinox lowering lift and that it wasn't in BOTW, she just headcanoned that since it had been 100 years, it simply just got covered up with dust, dirt and rocks, and then in TOTK, it got unblocked while they were fixing up the area, only for it to be blocked again by the upheaval

    29:22 that room is still there in Tears on B3. There's an opening above in the castle gardens, on the path facing south directly underneath Zelda's tower. There is a Like Like and some enemies in that area in ToTk and heading down in the side of the rock wall facing west is a door which leads to that room. In BOTW it follows back into the lockup, but the path between the two was destroyed in Tears. In Tears, it's a required battle location when you chase puppet Zelda. Also, the armory in the east passage is also gone, likely because it was durectly under what is now the chasm.

    I wish Nintendo could allow us to explore more of Hyrule in the distant past with Zelda as a playable character. Let alone the events of the Imprisoning War, Ganondorf''s background, some info on the Ancient Sages, the Zora and Rito populations in the Sky Islands, Twinrova, and provided more screentime for Rauru, Sonia, and Mineru. It has been a lost opportunity since TOTK's story has been divided into two.

    That one very tall room that was in Botw is in Totk on floor B3. If you go to Zelda’s study and stand on the bridge connecting the study to the rest of the castle (make sure you are facing the castle) you will fall onto a path along with part of the bridge. If you look to the right you will see a covered area with multiple different types of like-likes. If this is what you see then paraglide off of the cliff to the left of Zelda’s study, don’t jump straight down though. If you keep paragliding down the side of the castle then you should see a somewhat hidden entrance on the cliff side. If you enter through there then you should be in that room. Another way to find it is through a main quest you unlock from purah after you complete the four regional phenomenon. This is the puppet ganon/zelda quest.

    I was just wandering botw hyrule castle and wondering when this video would happen
    It has also inspired an idea,
    What if you could fight the calamity’s spectral form whilst riding the master cycle around hyrule castle, with all the malice removed and guardians inactive, as if ganon has summoned all the malice in the castle to confront you in his spectral form. You would have some device that you would point (aim like a bow) at the calamity as it circles the castle that would guide the divine beasts to fire at it, this being the way you attack it.
    A middle phase between the spider and dark beast for those who completed the champions ballad.

    Seeing these side by sides kinda brews a frustration in me. I wish Nintendo had been a little more continuity-conscious. Where did all of the Guardian corpses go? The ones that were already rusted over in Breath of the Wild should still be there. I also think it would have been cool if treasures appeared or disappeared based on save data. Like, if you already got a chest in the first game, have it be gone in the second. The shrines, too. Why would the original shrines no longer exist? I have always needed a little more visual convincing when playing Tears of the Kingdom. Too much reference was removed
    All that being said, these tours you make are absolutely cozy to kick back to, so thank you for your efforts

    Man, it's cool to see this changes, but at the same tim, it just makes me realize how lazy TOTK is, most of this changes are so soulless, I feel like TOTK should have had a new map, and then unlock the BOTW map at the end of the game.

      The gameplay between botw and totk is a world of innovation and inprovements, the sky islands are fun, but the surface is too much like botw for me

      @@jaemynbaer4504 Yeah, I like the mechanics in TOTK, but that's kinda it, that's the only thing the game has to offer, the rest of it it's just the same game you already played.
      And I would argue some of the mechanics are not even better than BOTW, the sages are an exemplo
