Now that I've gotten started with my Switch runthrough and made sure to pick up the Korok mask early, I'm enjoying hunting down Koroks as I explore :) I tried doing this before the Korok Mask was a thing and I got so tired of climbing every tree, picking up every rock, etc. But now that I can...
First time around I was so and so on it, especially with trying to get them all. I might change opinions once I do a playthrough where I get the Korok mask early. That's an item they really ought to have given us early in the game. I look forward to having it with me early on.
