The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom: Difference between revisions

m
Line 431:
* [[Happy Ending Override]]: ''Breath of the Wild'' ended on a positive note, with Link finally rescuing Zelda and eliminating the threat that is Calamity Ganon once and for all. Peace seemed to have returned to Hyrule at long last, only for an even deadlier type of Malice to start leaking out from underground...
* [[Heavily Armored Mook]]: Two types of enemies come in armored variants, with the added durability you'd expect with the trope. One is [[The Goomba|Armored Bokoblins]]... and the other is [[Oh Crap|Armored]] [[Demonic Spiders|LYNELS.]]
* [[Heroic Sacrifice]]:
** {{spoiler|In the backstory, King Raruru did this in order to seal the Demon King. He is still around as a benevolent spirit.}}
** Non-lethal example, Zelda accepts a [[Fate Worse Than Death]] in the hopes of vanquishing Ganondorf forever. Trapped in the past, she consumes her Dragon Tear (the focus of her power as the Sage of Time), turning herself into the Light Dragon (an act that she had been warned with destroy her humanity) and then implants the destroyed Master Sword in her scales. Over the next several thousand years, the Sword regains its power and then some as she takes [[The Slow Path]] back to Link. Sure, there is a way to restore her to normal, after the final boss is defeated, but she didn't know that.}}
* [[High Altitude Battle]]: Thanks to the newfound emphasis on flying, several climactic battles take place high in the sky: Moragia is meant to be fought with a Zonai flying machine, Colgera is fought high above the Wind Temple/Stormwind Ark (which is itself ridiculously high in the sky), and {{spoiler|the Demon Dragon is fought in the sky as well}}.
* [[History Repeats]]: {{spoiler|Ganondorf seems to make the same mistake he made as Calamity Ganon, sacrificing his mind to obtain raw power, leading to his defeat via his own hubris.}}
* [[Hoist by His Own Petard]]:
** With his Recall power, Link can cause certain enemies and even bosses to be hit by their own attacks. Marbled Gohma is the most notable example, since launching its boulders right back at it is one of the few ways you can hurt it.
