The wait is over—the Legend of Zelda™: Tears of the Kingdom game is finally here! There’s a lot to discover, and we want you to put your best boot forward when you set out in Hyrule.
Let’s start with a few important tips before you start playing. But don’t worry, we’ll stay away from any spoilers. Think of this article as a way to help get in the right mindset before playing.
Oh! And we’ll be bringing you more tips articles in the coming weeks, so be sure to keep an eye on the news feed.
等待已经结束–塞尔达传说™： 王国之泪》游戏终于来了! 有很多东西等着你去发现，我们希望当你在Hyrule出发时，你能把你最好的靴子放在前面。
在你开始玩之前，让我们先来看看几个重要的提示。但不要担心，我们会远离任何破坏者。把这篇文章看作是帮助你在游戏前进入正确心态的一种方式。
哦！在未来几周，我们将为你带来更多的提示文章，所以一定要注意新闻提要。
Tip 1: Unlearn what you’ve learned
提示1：忘掉你之前学的东西
Yeah, this may sound like something you’d be told from a martial arts master, but hear us out. Whether you’ve played hundreds of hours of The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild or are brand new to the series, your experience level doesn’t really matter when it comes to this game.
是的，这听起来像是一个武术大师告诉你的事情，但请听我们说完。无论你已经玩了几百个小时的《塞尔达传说：荒野之息》，还是对该系列游戏感到陌生，当涉及到这个游戏时，你的经验水平其实并不重要。
While things you’ve done in previous games may still work, you have a wide variety of options in this sequel. Sure, you can still fight enemies with a stick … or you can fuse a boulder to your stick and jump on springboards to bonk enemies on the head. Sure, you can climb your way out of a hole … or you can use the Ascend ability to travel through the ceiling and get where you need to go.
虽然你在以前的游戏中做过的事情可能仍然有效，但在这部续集中你有各种各样的选择。当然，你仍然可以用棍子打敌人……或者你可以把巨石和你的棍子融合在一起，然后跳到跳板上，把敌人的头打爆。当然，你可以从一个洞里爬出来……或者你可以使用上升能力穿越天花板，到达你需要去的地方。
Tip 2: Try everything
提示2：尝试所有可能性
This game encourages you to try new things throughout. From traveling around Hyrule to solving puzzles, there are multiple ways to overcome problems you run into. The joy comes from trying out crazy ideas that end up working.
这个游戏鼓励你在整个过程中尝试新的东西。从环游Hyrule到解开谜题，有多种方法来克服你遇到的问题。乐趣来自于尝试疯狂的想法，而这些想法最终都会成功。
Oh, and if something isn’t working out the way you want, take a moment and try something else. Some players find joy in attempting a difficult jump over and over. Others would rather build a bridge. Experimentation is the heart of this game—even if a situation doesn’t go as expected, you may stumble upon something that will help you later.
哦，如果某件事情没有达到你想要的效果，就花点时间尝试其他东西。有些玩家在一次又一次地尝试困难的跳跃中找到乐趣。而另一些人则更愿意建一座桥。实验是这个游戏的核心–即使情况不尽如人意，你也可能无意中发现一些对你以后有帮助的东西。
Tip 3: Get some perspective
提示3：登高望远
When you enter a new area, find a tall vantage point and scope out your surroundings. You’ll find all sorts of stuff—enemies, chests, materials, objects or terrain that will help in fights, and more. Believe us, it will be easier to do this before enemies spot you. Speaking of …
当你进入一个新的区域时，找一个高的有利位置，观察你周围的环境。你会发现各种各样的东西–敌人、箱子、材料、有助于战斗的物体或地形等等。相信我们，在敌人发现你之前这样做会比较容易。说到…
Tip 4: Prepare for fights beforehand
提示4：平时注意收集和建造武器，以便可以用兵一时
Look, you don’t have to do this—we’re (sometimes) fond of charging into the middle of things while screaming and wildly waving our arms too. But if you want to use the Fuse ability to make strong weapons or Ultrahand to build a makeshift missile turret, you may want to do that before Bokoblins are trying to smack you around. A little prep time can go a long way.
听着，你不必这样做–我们（有时）也喜欢在尖叫和疯狂地挥舞手臂时冲进一件事里。但是如果你想用【余料建造】的能力来制造强大的武器，或者用【究极手】来建造一个临时的导弹炮台，你可能想在波克布林试图抽打你之前就这么做。一点准备时间可以起到很大的作用。
Tip 5: Use your words
提示5：多与其他角色交谈
This won’t work on enemies (at least the ones we’ve tried) but try talking to the more peaceful characters out there! In particular, characters called Constructs may give you helpful tips about the area.
这对敌人不起作用（至少是我们试过的那些），但可以试着和那些比较平和的角色交谈！特别是那些被称为 “建筑 “的角色可能会给你一些关于这个地区的有用的提示！特别是，被称为 “结构 “的人物可能会给你关于这个地区的有用提示。
Tip 6: Play it your way
技巧6：按自己的方式游玩
OK, this is probably the most important tip. Sure, Link is the character in the game, but remember that you are the hero here. You are saving Hyrule. And you can do it how you want to! Play around with everything you get your hands on, because there’s room for massive creativity (and shenanigans) in this game.
好吧，这可能是最重要的提示。当然，林克是游戏中的人物，但记住你是这里的英雄。你正在拯救Hyrule。你可以按照自己的意愿来做! 玩弄你手中的一切，因为在这个游戏中有大量的创造力（和诡计）的空间。
With that said, don’t worry about not being “creative enough.” Everyone is creative on some level, and a part of creativity is giving yourself permission to try new things. We all play in different ways—messy ways, elaborate ways, unexpected ways, and silly ways that have no purpose other than to see what happens. Don’t worry about playing the game “the right way” because it’s up to you how you want to approach obstacles. If something works in the end, it’s a success. If it doesn’t, did you at least get a chuckle out of it?
说到这里，不要担心自己不够 “有创意”。每个人在某种程度上都有创造力，而创造力的一部分就是允许自己尝试新的东西。我们都以不同的方式进行游戏–混乱的方式、精心设计的方式、出乎意料的方式，以及除了看看会发生什么之外没有任何目的的愚蠢方式。不要担心以 “正确的方式 “玩游戏，因为你想如何处理障碍取决于你。如果某件事最后成功了，那就是成功了。如果没有，你是否至少从中得到了笑声？
Tip 7: Share the knowledge
提示7：多与朋友们交流心得
And finally, creativity comes alive when you share what you know and get inspired by others. Talk to your friends to see what they’ve tried. Maybe find out what other people have done. You may be surprised what ends up inspiring you!
最后，当你分享你所知道的并从别人那里得到启发时，创造力就会活跃起来。与你的朋友交谈，看看他们已经尝试了什么。也许会发现其他人做了什么。你可能会惊讶于什么东西最终会给你带来灵感!
Alrighty, that’s all for now. Be on the lookout for our next tips article which will cover the four new abilities—Fuse, Ultrahand, Ascend, and Recall. You can also buy the game using the link below.
好了，现在就说这么多。请关注我们的下一篇提示文章，它将涵盖四种新的能力–导火线、超手、上升和召回。你也可以通过下面的链接购买游戏。
Have fun out there!
祝你在游戏里玩得开心!
