Yeah, the koroks are always really heavy weight. I think I left off with around 65%, and I had done most side quests, got all shrines + sages wills, and only about 100 koroks. I just can’t find it in me to go for the koroks knowing what the reward is.
No, but I see why people would like them. I personally don’t like them because I feel like it’s almost always an unnecessarily long scene to begin with. If it’s more than 10 seconds, it just feels like it’s meant to make people horny.
