Welcome to !botw_scavenger_hunt@lemmy.world! In this community, you post pictures of interesting locations you find on your journey throughout Hyrule, and others try to find where they are!
Posting a new picture
Take a screenshot of your location using the Switch's screenshot button. Make sure you have the map disabled by changing the HUD mode to Pro.
To upload your picture, you could either:
transfer it to your smart device by following this guide,
post it to a social media website, and link the image directly in your post, or
use a microSD card to transfer it to another device, and upload it to your post.
You could include a clue in your title or in a comment to help the Scavengers looking for your picture.
Hunting
Try to find the exact location of the picture linked in the post, and take a screenshot there. Make sure you have the map enabled by changing the HUD mode to Normal.
Upload your picture to Imgur, and post the link in a comment.
Even if the picture has already been found, you can still participate in the hunt and look for it.
If you were the first to find a picture successfully, you will receive a point. Points will be tracked internally, and until a "user flair" system is added, there will be a public leaderboard.
Other Guidelines
If the picture is a spoiler (e.g., a major boss, or DLC content), please mark it as such.
Don't post any off-topic content. This includes generic BOTW content that isn't necessarily a location picture to be found, memes, META posts, and other content that does not relate to the game.
Be kind. Remember the human on the other side. Offensive content will not be tolerated.
This post will serve as a feedback post, so if you have any suggestions or feedback, please leave them here.
