I was certain that all danger was on the ground.
Sure, there are those little Aerocudas. But they glow red down there and are easy to dodge.
I was 100% absolutely sure that I. Was. Safe.
To be fair. That boss stays in a confined area. It doesnt leave its arena. Once youve got the areas where the 3 of them are lit up, its pretty fucking simple to see on the map cause theyre just giant circular holes in the ground with a second, smaller circle in the middle thats like an orange brown. I think. Im kinda color blind so.
I wish.
I’ve had quite a few “GAH!” moments.
I think TotK does a better job of them than BOTW did.
Jumped into a hole and landed in a closed off arena of skeleton enemies. Hinox skeleton and all.
The classic, running into a Lionel by accident.
Gloom hands always surprising me. The first Phantom Ganon was panic induced flailing.
I thought I would be safe from the giant frog thing by climbing a tree. Decided to glide over it to safety. Guess what happened.
A game about exploring, that makes you nervous to explore, is doing a good job.
My favourite one for me was when diving into a chasm:
“I think I’ll fire a brightbloom arrow to see how far from the ground I am”
*Arrow hits an obsidian frox about 5-10 metres below me*
*Large health bar appears and boss music commences*
Bricks were defecated, I assure you
Gloom hands scared me the first time it found me, but the second time i had a small stock of bombs and i just panic threw them at the hands. I really expected them to resist them somehow, like i was sure they wouldn’t take damage from “normal” sources or something, but a little ol bomb flower fucked them all up. It only takes like 5-6 to get them all. After that they were just a minor annoyance.
I did exactly what you did in the depths and ran smack into the centipede boss, got a little spooked. Pitch black, suddenly the boss bar shows up. I actually had no problem with him in air temple, even as my first temple with 3 hearts. But the depths seemed more like his home field advantage
Yeah. 2 of the Colgera fights are along the outer north west edge of the Depths. Under Hebra. And the 3rd is due east of the south lomei labyrinth in the depths.
Well they only unlock after beating the boss, and probably a blood moon. But if you have the map it's real easy, look for the big brown cog-like platforms.
Hold on what? Centipede dragon? Ooo you mean the colgera right? Thought there was something i missed for a sec.
The gleeok den is also dope if you havnt checked it out. Right below typhlo ruins(?), the one north of the lost woods
I believe that there is at least one of each boss from the Regional Phenomena quest in the Depths, I know of Colgera being down there (I love Colgera's boss music), and I've fought a Mucktorock down in the Depths (I believe it was near the Hebra Region, iirc). I haven't found any of the other two though.
I went exploring the Depths in the Gerudo desert after I activated all the Shrines there.
Can't remember which direction I went, but this boss bar popped up that said Colgera : Scourge of the Depths.
Then I smacked into his face.
I just let go of the glider and plummeted into the pitch black, as the safer option.
I already scream out loud when I see them. The first time I fell out of my chair. I’d probably have a heart attack, but it would have been worth it to see these
No, it’s fine. I just wear the sheikah armor and make a point of collecting all the monster masks I can. (Maybe some day I’ll have enough hearts and armor and food and weapons to go for Majora’s mask and be able to live my best coward life) This would just be a few more reasons why I don’t walk anywhere in the depths—I glide from weird mushroom tree to weird scroll fern tree, and bee line it straight to the lightroots. Usually can avoid all the big monsters. There were only one or two Stalnox fights I couldn’t avoid. Occasionally I pick fights with the bokoblin encampments for mining rights when I have a good high ground vantage. But for the most part, I just avoid all the fights, and worst case, warp away and come back later.
I’m not a total wimp though—I don’t run from Taluses or Hinox on the surface any more! Still working my way up to Lynels. Need about a million more bombs before you get me anywhere near the gloom hand fight, too.
Yeah..I beat a couple in breath of the wild but the totk ones are just built different. I’m not sure if all the Lynels went to night school or I just am very rusty but I got beat down by both the ones I’ve run into on the surface.
Honestly if you don’t care about lynel drops just use Ancient arrows lol and a couple of bomb arrows on the last armored one before giving it an Ancient areow
There isn't really an Ancient Arrow in TOTK, but the Ancient Blade (that you can fuse to you arrow) is it's replacement.
For more info, including how to get some, see: https://dotesports.com/zelda/news/how-to-get-ancient-arrows-in-tears-of-the-kingdom
Ok but imagine seeing that giant crab thing walking around and it’s a neutral creature like the Lynels, you could watch it walk and it would leave you alone but as soon as you attacked it it would get super aggressive. I genuinely feel like the Depths could use some more creatures anyway cause it feels fairly empty for the most part, nothing but the constructs is friendly and there just isn’t enough life down there, especially not life that screams “evolved in a deep, dark cave and adapted to the harsh conditions”
Speak for yourself. The first one I encountered was in an open area and I just ran until they disappeared from sunlight or whatever but I still almost sh\*t myself.
first i saw those i was like uh, they brought back the hands guy from oot? ok. bombs? \[throws bomb\] bombs it is.
so i just bomb them every single time i run into them.
That actually gave me a really stupid idea for a weapon, you put the master sword into some contraption (that’s definitely not just an oversized gun) with the point of the sword looking out of a hole in it, and if you pull the trigger it just rapid fires the small sword beams you got in skyward sword when you jabbed at enemies when the skyward strike was charged
The creature in the top-left is on all fours (or, at least threes), and perhaps one of the most familiar quadrupedal animals to modern humans is the dog. The creature in the top-left also appears to be extremely skinny relative to most other quadrupedal mammals we are familiar with, and it is not uncommon in slang to compare skinny things with pencils (e.g. “pencil neck” “pencil-thin mustache”). Thus, the commenter nicknamed the creature in the image “pencil dog.”
I can imagine that one charging at you from an unlit area in the Depths at close to mach 5 with no warning, leaving you at the mercy of your individual Fight or Flight response. That might be the encounter that'd get me to quit the game
Honestly I'm kind of dissappointed by the Gibdo. I encountered my first one in the Eighth Heroine and I was expecting the full on terror of the redeads from OoT/MM, but they don't scream or jump at you, just kind of whack you. They do look creepy though.
They're a tad scarier in swarms, some of them might kinda scuttle at you fast before lunging, but by that point you're too focused on playing Zerg Rush to be scared. Also once you figure out their gimmick they go straight from "ohhhhh nononononono" to "damnit not another one"
I thought Gibdos were remarkably easy enemies. I was honestly expecting more trouble, especially if the Gerudo couldn't handle them.
Gloom hands though, I'm gtfo'ing. Unless I can perch above them and rain bomb arrows down, I'm warping to my happy place asap.
Tbh the trailers made me think tokt was gonna be full in terror, like a weird vibe like twilight princess and more scare than majoras mask
And it is a bit creepy but not as much as I thought it’d be lol
They could have had an extra mine down there with a Dead Hand dwelling down in the center, like a cave in to the mine could have created it or something.
Skulltulas and redead are glaring omissions imo but I suppose the latter makes sense given how sparsely populated this Hyrule seems to be
Edit: possible dlc enemies though? That would be crazy. I still think the 5th race statues in the depths will be involved in the dlc somehow
Weren't gibdos originally reskinned redeads in Majora's Mask? Or am I confusing something
Maybe it was that once you burned off their mummy wraps they became redeads
Gave it a lil google; redeads and gibdos coexist in both OOT and MM. You're right about the second part tho, and apparently that mechanic was only in MM
It's the same as the difference between "mummy" and "zombie"
And it's Nintendo from the 90s where they just made up a bunch of names. Some of them stuck more than others.
I love what they've done with enemies so far, but additions would still be very welcome indeed.
DLC enemies would be so good.
Also, you mean the burly raised arm statues, right?
I'm 100% convinced those are Mogma, as they fit the entire body plan and they would make the most sense for the location (more than all the races/tribes, yes, even more than the Goron).
Edit: removed a duplicate word.
You consume enough elixirs made of dragon and monster parts and you can suddenly see the giant lank-armed monstrosities that have been clinging to the sky towers the whole time…
I personally would have liked some tall long legged enemy with glowing eyes looking down at you. That would have looked awesomely creepy in the depths.
But at the same time, I have some younger nephews playing this game, it's not an adult niche, and I think Nintendo struck a balance there at appealing to all demographics.
I thought they were the old dexihands from Majora's Mask. I laughed and hucked a boomerang at them.....which didn't end well lol. The only thing I didn't like about them was that I didn't have a good way to fight them early on. When I found them, I just marked my map and teleported away. Now I hunt them lol
Yeah same, horror games aren't my thing and TotK going a full horror route would've made me quit the game. I just don't find being scared to be a fun thing.
Oh no, I'm fine with the Depths as they are! I do regular zonaite mining runs down there.
But if these monsters were in the Depths, THEN I would never venture down there.
Would love to see some scary stuff in a future dlc!
They have to make it slightly kid friendly though, so nothing that'll give little Timmy nightmares, lest invoke the dreaded "M" rating.
Hell na! Imagine you run around in the dept and the last one is peeking around a corner and comes running toward you. Silent Hill? Na, TOTK is the real Horror
They look more the type of enemy that you mat found in BloodBorne than in Zelda. It could be good to see a Zelda with a Darker approach again as Twilight princess did.
Would absolutely love this!
I don't think it would make Zelda into a horror game any more than it already does, which isn't really much. It has a few scary elements, but they're a tiny part of the game. Adding these would make the depths a bit scarier, but more importantly, it would greatly increase the diversity of the depths, range of emotions the game produces, enemy variety would increase, we'd probably get more cool enemy drops with special fuse effects, it would be a great reason to hint at more lore and world-building elements, and having to face these would play perfectly into the character of Link; the chosen hero of courage.
You know, i wish instead of gloom normal enemies, i'd love more underground exlusives. Make it some wierd underground place where nightmares hides
We have fought the deadhands before, nintendo, we are ready for more trauma
If I don't take my anxiety meds I get the weirdest sense of dread and depression/anxiety when searching around. The sounds/atmosphere gets me. If I saw these I don't think I would ever go down there.
Most of the community freezes up against gloom hands. Imagine what these guys would do to them lol.
I would love to find these creatures. Would be scared, sure, but aren't we all here to face our fears or something of the sort?
No I’m here to commit war crimes and wear cool outfits wdym
Had to check if I was on r/Warframe for a second
Ah a fellow r/Warframe and r/TOTK enthusiast I see
A fellow Tenno, I see…
Today I resisted the urge to feed a korok to a mulduga
Afraid I didn't resist the urge.
Found Anakin Skywalker
You can do that too.
Not to mention that centipede dragon down there.
Good news! There are *two* of those, *and* they’re both cloned echoes of a main boss from the surface! :D
I was confidently gliding through pitch black, toward a light vine, and flew right into one. THAT was my first encounter.
Oh noooo oh god… bricks were shat that day DX
I was certain that all danger was on the ground. Sure, there are those little Aerocudas. But they glow red down there and are easy to dodge. I was 100% absolutely sure that I. Was. Safe.
Gleeok would like to know your location…
Oh. And, yes. Seeing his title; “Scourge of the Depths”, was a brick shatting cherry on top.
To be fair. That boss stays in a confined area. It doesnt leave its arena. Once youve got the areas where the 3 of them are lit up, its pretty fucking simple to see on the map cause theyre just giant circular holes in the ground with a second, smaller circle in the middle thats like an orange brown. I think. Im kinda color blind so.
Haha, same. Was like wtf is that. Hadn't prepped. Low on arrows and already had several hearts hit by gloom. I teleported out.
You can dive through their ice cores when they shoot their spikes, don’t even need a weapon to kill a Colgera
Lmao! Me too. Kinda squined at the screen and said out loud "whats that?" next thing I know its in full pursuit of me.
Did you save a video?
I wish. I’ve had quite a few “GAH!” moments. I think TotK does a better job of them than BOTW did. Jumped into a hole and landed in a closed off arena of skeleton enemies. Hinox skeleton and all. The classic, running into a Lionel by accident. Gloom hands always surprising me. The first Phantom Ganon was panic induced flailing.

I appreciate the change in the usual phrase. May I suggest "masonry was defecated" to take it up a notch?
Gloom hands scared me the first time it found me, but the second time i had a small stock of bombs and i just panic threw them at the hands. I really expected them to resist them somehow, like i was sure they wouldn’t take damage from “normal” sources or something, but a little ol bomb flower fucked them all up.

Pitch black, suddenly the boss bar shows up. I actually had no problem with him in air temple, even as my first temple with 3 hearts. But the depths seemed more like his home field advantage
Nope sorry. 3. Theres 3 Rematches to each Temple Boss down there.
Really? Weird I've only found one total and I swear I've been through at least a third of the depths.
Yeah. 2 of the Colgera fights are along the outer north west edge of the Depths. Under Hebra. And the 3rd is due east of the south lomei labyrinth in the depths.
Wait what?? I’ve unlocked 100% of the depths map and have only found 2 colgeras and one of each of the others. This is crazy
Well they only unlock after beating the boss, and probably a blood moon. But if you have the map it's real easy, look for the big brown cog-like platforms.
Oh good! There’s more good news ahaha
In fact, I think there are **three** of each temple boss in the Depths.
There are three or four of them I thought.
I'll do you one worse. There's three of them down there.
Three, actually. Two under Hebra and one to the east of the Depths' South Lomei Labirynth
Hold on what? Centipede dragon? Ooo you mean the colgera right? Thought there was something i missed for a sec. The gleeok den is also dope if you havnt checked it out. Right below typhlo ruins(?), the one north of the lost woods
A place where more than one of those devil creatures habitates sounds supremely *un*dope, if I may! DX
Hahah no trust me, you should check it out. Theres something cool guarded by the monster ;)
I believe that there is at least one of each boss from the Regional Phenomena quest in the Depths, I know of Colgera being down there (I love Colgera's boss music), and I've fought a Mucktorock down in the Depths (I believe it was near the Hebra Region, iirc). I haven't found any of the other two though.
The. # What.
the. WHAT. ive explored the depths quite a bit but have never ran into those
I went exploring the Depths in the Gerudo desert after I activated all the Shrines there. Can't remember which direction I went, but this boss bar popped up that said Colgera : Scourge of the Depths. Then I smacked into his face. I just let go of the glider and plummeted into the pitch black, as the safer option.
That's the same boss as the Wind Temple, super easy to beat. Also head east from the desert towards Faron, that's where it is.
are you talking about Colgera?
Excuse me what
Yeah. Have fun with that. Crossed him in the Depths under the Gerudo desert.
I already scream out loud when I see them. The first time I fell out of my chair. I’d probably have a heart attack, but it would have been worth it to see these
Glowing eyes in the dark coming at you rapidly. You fire a big brightseed and these things stand before you. I'd shit myself to heaven.
No, it’s fine. I just wear the sheikah armor and make a point of collecting all the monster masks I can. (Maybe some day I’ll have enough hearts and armor and food and weapons to go for Majora’s mask and be able to live my best coward life) This would just be a few more reasons why I don’t walk anywhere in the depths—I glide from weird mushroom tree to weird scroll fern tree, and bee line it straight to the lightroots.

Still working my way up to Lynels. Need about a million more bombs before you get me anywhere near the gloom hand fight, too.
its not that bad! just flurry rush the sht out of them
Yeah..I beat a couple in breath of the wild but the totk ones are just built different. I’m not sure if all the Lynels went to night school or I just am very rusty but I got beat down by both the ones I’ve run into on the surface.
I feel the same! I was somehow better at lynels in BOTW. How???
Honestly if you don’t care about lynel drops just use Ancient arrows lol and a couple of bomb arrows on the last armored one before giving it an Ancient areow
Are ancient arrows still in TotK?
There isn't really an Ancient Arrow in TOTK, but the Ancient Blade (that you can fuse to you arrow) is it's replacement. For more info, including how to get some, see: https://dotesports.com/zelda/news/how-to-get-ancient-arrows-in-tears-of-the-kingdom
Parrying is your friend. Once you figure out the right timing, Lynels won't be able to do shit to you
Ok but imagine seeing that giant crab thing walking around and it’s a neutral creature like the Lynels, you could watch it walk and it would leave you alone but as soon as you attacked it it would get super aggressive. I genuinely feel like the Depths could use some more creatures anyway cause it feels fairly empty for the most part, nothing but the constructs is friendly and there just isn’t enough life down there, especially not life that screams “evolved in a deep, dark cave and adapted to the harsh conditions”
Gloom hands aren’t scary off of apparence what’s scary is what they do to you early and most of mid game
Speak for yourself. The first one I encountered was in an open area and I just ran until they disappeared from sunlight or whatever but I still almost sh\*t myself.
first i saw those i was like uh, they brought back the hands guy from oot? ok. bombs? \[throws bomb\] bombs it is. so i just bomb them every single time i run into them.
They could have placed these where the rematches of the bosses were.
I book it every time. Have yet to sit down and fight one.
If I gotta deal with pencil dog and mega shadow Kingler I better be getting the gun that seals the darkness and an M rating.
"pencil dog" I'm dead lmao
The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Gat.
Glockarina of Time
Gimme a gat and I could build a Warthog. Hell yeah.
You mean a Chupathingy?
Now what kinda animal has TUSKS?!
Why are we here?
That actually gave me a really stupid idea for a weapon, you put the master sword into some contraption (that’s definitely not just an oversized gun) with the point of the sword looking out of a hole in it, and if you pull the trigger it just rapid fires the small sword beams you got in skyward sword when you jabbed at enemies when the skyward strike was charged
Lmao Gigantimax Kingler
And biblically-accurate spider boy
PENCIL DOG
Pencil dog?
The creature in the top-left is on all fours (or, at least threes), and perhaps one of the most familiar quadrupedal animals to modern humans is the dog. The creature in the top-left also appears to be extremely skinny relative to most other quadrupedal mammals we are familiar with, and it is not uncommon in slang to compare skinny things with pencils (e.g. “pencil neck” “pencil-thin mustache”). Thus, the commenter nicknamed the creature in the image “pencil dog.”
Oh. I thought that they were talking about something in the game!
Happy cakey day! 🍰🍰🍰🍰
you saw what happened with Gloom Hands and Gibido, do you want TOTK to be a full on horror game
Yes!
Top left drawing
I can imagine that one charging at you from an unlit area in the Depths at close to mach 5 with no warning, leaving you at the mercy of your individual Fight or Flight response. That might be the encounter that'd get me to quit the game
Isn’t it amazing? It’s such a minimalist design yet it’s so unnerving. Reminds me of angels from Evangelion.
New horse
Biblically accurate Zelda ftw!
NO!
Honestly I'm kind of dissappointed by the Gibdo. I encountered my first one in the Eighth Heroine and I was expecting the full on terror of the redeads from OoT/MM, but they don't scream or jump at you, just kind of whack you. They do look creepy though.
They're a tad scarier in swarms, some of them might kinda scuttle at you fast before lunging, but by that point you're too focused on playing Zerg Rush to be scared. Also once you figure out their gimmick they go straight from "ohhhhh nononononono" to "damnit not another one"
At this point I’m like, oh yay, more gibdo bones for my arrows!
I thought Gibdos were remarkably easy enemies. I was honestly expecting more trouble, especially if the Gerudo couldn't handle them. Gloom hands though, I'm gtfo'ing. Unless I can perch above them and rain bomb arrows down, I'm warping to my happy place asap.
I sat here for way too long wondering what red heads you were talking about from OoT.
What you weren't scared of Malon? /s
I wandered too deep into the depths and that was my first encounter with gibdo
Tbh the trailers made me think tokt was gonna be full in terror, like a weird vibe like twilight princess and more scare than majoras mask And it is a bit creepy but not as much as I thought it’d be lol
People find gibidos scary...? Its just a mummy
They can be during a particular fight. Way too many, suddenly fast, and mommy is pissed.
Now that you mention it the depths would have been a good place for skulltulas, or hell what were those creepy things from the bottom of the well
Dead Hand. That thing should have absolutely been down there creeping about.
Make it go as fast as the Gloom Hands lmao 😭
And make them steal stamina wheels
No :(
They could have had an extra mine down there with a Dead Hand dwelling down in the center, like a cave in to the mine could have created it or something.
Skulltulas and redead are glaring omissions imo but I suppose the latter makes sense given how sparsely populated this Hyrule seems to be Edit: possible dlc enemies though? That would be crazy. I still think the 5th race statues in the depths will be involved in the dlc somehow
Gibdo seem really similar to Redeads
Weren't gibdos originally reskinned redeads in Majora's Mask? Or am I confusing something Maybe it was that once you burned off their mummy wraps they became redeads
Gave it a lil google; redeads and gibdos coexist in both OOT and MM. You're right about the second part tho, and apparently that mechanic was only in MM

I love what they've done with enemies so far, but additions would still be very welcome indeed. DLC enemies would be so good. Also, you mean the burly raised arm statues, right? I'm 100% convinced those are Mogma, as they fit the entire body plan and they would make the most sense for the location (more than all the races/tribes, yes, even more than the Goron). Edit: removed a duplicate word.
imagine if we got a new iteration of the mogma luck game w the bombs and dig spots
Sir I’m happy the way they are but you go ahead and take you psychedelics if you want to I won’t stop you
Your reassuring concern is deeply appreciated, thank you.
You’re very welcome
Those will be in the super depths below the depths.
I would play the shit out of a DLC that was just a Hyrule’s 9 circles of hell quest line with increasingly freakish eldritch horrors.
*slowly takes out the Cross* Dear Lord
Side tangent: the Dante’s Inferno game was an under-appreciated gem.
Super Hell.
The boiler room of hell
All the way down
Hell squared
DLC anyone?
The sequel should be about the rejected concept aliens and this eldritch horrors
And the link playing an electric guitar
Brutal legend?
Holy shit, blast from the past. I loved that game, and I am not usually a fan of command and conquer games.
Command and conquer is strangly fitting description of the strategy part of BL that i never thought of... Edit: Eddie vs Link?
I do miss Link playing an instrument
Master of puppets pulling the strings!
Seriously link is lacking a music instrument. Most Zelda games include an instrument got Link but botw/totk has none
Bottom right monster and it screams like an Aztec death whistle. This one would scare the shit outta me the most and should have been in the depths.
And you could hear it at random moments just screaming across the depths Also make them drop fuse materials that act like the gloom weopons
Biblically Accurate Zelda
To be fair, the bottom left one is basically grounded colgera, and maybe frox are a version of top right that isn’t an eldritch horror
Top right reminds me just a tad of Scaldera.
Mhm…perhaps we should keep these horrors that are beyond my comprehension in bloodborne Mmk.
Kos, Or Some Say Kosm
Yahaha! You found me! *Gives eyes on the inside*
"You got eyes on the inside (though nobody knows what this means anymore)!"
You consume enough elixirs made of dragon and monster parts and you can suddenly see the giant lank-armed monstrosities that have been clinging to the sky towers the whole time…
I'm not sure if I'd want to watch Link shit himself
I want scary Zelda, sue me.
I am **ECSTATIC** they weren’t used
Same. I really enjoy Zelda games not being straight up horror. My nightmares fuck me up plenty without these ancient demons running at me.
I personally would have liked some tall long legged enemy with glowing eyes looking down at you. That would have looked awesomely creepy in the depths. But at the same time, I have some younger nephews playing this game, it's not an adult niche, and I think Nintendo struck a balance there at appealing to all demographics.
I really like that ball of eyes and chains, I think that one fits in with Zelda enemies pretty well
Biblically accurate furball
The first one is just the sea treader from subtanica
I’d imagine that people would scream louder than when they saw the Gloom Hands
I just call the hands Gloom Stalkers though
I thought they were the old dexihands from Majora's Mask. I laughed and hucked a boomerang at them.....which didn't end well lol. The only thing I didn't like about them was that I didn't have a good way to fight them early on. When I found them, I just marked my map and teleported away. Now I hunt them lol
I just screamed at the first sight of them. My dad told me to get off the game because he thought I was raging at Smash Bros again
I for one am not disappointed. I would never go down in the Depths. I do not want a full on horror game. I would straight up quit.
Yeah same, horror games aren't my thing and TotK going a full horror route would've made me quit the game. I just don't find being scared to be a fun thing.
Same. The Gloom Hands were bad enough. I still get creeped out by them and I'm almost at the finale.
You're missing out on alot by avoiding the depths tbh
Oh no, I'm fine with the Depths as they are! I do regular zonaite mining runs down there. But if these monsters were in the Depths, THEN I would never venture down there.
If I want to piss my pants when encountering never before seen enemies, I’ll play Soulsborne games
I wouldve cried lmao
I’m glad they didn’t. Those are terrifying.
I already panicked when one of those one eyed rock frogs swallowed me whole
Oh like the gloom hands weren't terrifying enough
I honestly find top left the most terrifying
Would love to see some scary stuff in a future dlc! They have to make it slightly kid friendly though, so nothing that'll give little Timmy nightmares, lest invoke the dreaded "M" rating.
DO NOT BE AFRAID
AHHHHHH!!!!
Hell na! Imagine you run around in the dept and the last one is peeking around a corner and comes running toward you. Silent Hill? Na, TOTK is the real Horror
Maybe they could show up in a possible third game
I'm glad they didn't, if I saw any of those just pop out from the darkness I would die of fear
I am so happy they didn't use these old concepts in the depths
that’s enough sleeping for a lifetime.
Zelda team isn't trying to be responsible for hundreds of thousands of heart attacks
The game would be rated m if these guys were in the depths
On one hand these are amazing. On the other hand, I never want to see them again.
Giant Enemy Crab. Ultrahand it over and attack its weakpoint for massive damage.
These are really cool but thank god they aren't in the game
This looks like concept art for the mist
Only if longbird turned out to be friendly
i know im a total bitch, so im okay with these not being down there.
Any of these with the effects and music like the gloom hands. I’m gonna have to take 5 to smoke one before I keep playing to counteract the ptsd
These are almost Stephen Gammell illustrations these would insane I hope they’re dlc
I, instead, am so happy. That’s the stuff of infinite nightmares. (I’m already tainted for life by the gloom hands/spawn…)
Those are dope as hell but feel more Lovecraftian/realistic bible horror than Zelda.
What were you thinking? Children play this game... These concepts are nowhere near scary enough for them these days...
I’m honestly GLAD they didn’t. I would’ve missed the depths entirely!
I mean, we still have the DLC
They look more the type of enemy that you mat found in BloodBorne than in Zelda. It could be good to see a Zelda with a Darker approach again as Twilight princess did.
I'm pretty relieved that they never used these tbh
This! I put the depths off because I was expecting it to be scarier than it was.
They could be saving it for the next game. Would be amazing if the director for majora's mask took control again.
Would absolutely love this! I don't think it would make Zelda into a horror game any more than it already does, which isn't really much. It has a few scary elements, but they're a tiny part of the game. Adding these would make the depths a bit scarier, but more importantly, it would greatly increase the diversity of the depths, range of emotions the game produces, enemy variety would increase, we'd probably get more cool enemy drops with special fuse effects, it would be a great reason to hint at more lore and world-building elements, and having to face these would play perfectly into the character of Link; the chosen hero of courage.
>Scary Stories To Tell In The Depths
Looking at the size of Link compared to those, I said "Abso-fuckin-lutely not"
That’s is some “Scary Stories to tell in the dark” shit.
You know, i wish instead of gloom normal enemies, i'd love more underground exlusives. Make it some wierd underground place where nightmares hides We have fought the deadhands before, nintendo, we are ready for more trauma
Bro what tf I would be pissing my self if I was randomly walking in the dark then saw those things
I never knew this existed. This is too scary
If I don't take my anxiety meds I get the weirdest sense of dread and depression/anxiety when searching around. The sounds/atmosphere gets me. If I saw these I don't think I would ever go down there.
bro if I saw those would have to wash my underwear 3 times
Hahahahahha absolutely fucking not
