The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild/Great Plateau

Shrine of Resurrection
After the introductory cutscene, you will gain full control over Link. You can move him around with and control the camera with. If you would like to adjust control settings, this would be a good time to do so: open the System menu, then select Options. Interact with the first terminal with, then open the two treasure chests in the next room to receive your first pieces of armor. Equip these via the inventory menu, then activate the next terminal. You can now run outside, sprinting with (or  if you switched the buttons in options) if you wish. To climb the small cliff in the way, simply run into it while holding forward. Both sprinting and climbing will deplete your stamina wheel. If Link runs out of stamina he will be left out of breath (if running), lose his grip and fall (if climbing), or drown (if swimming).

Once outside, run down the slope, collecting your first resources on the way, and speak to the old man at the campfire. Shortly afterwards, you receive your first main quest: "Follow the Sheikah Slate".

Head to your objective, represented by a glowing yellow waypoint. Feel free to display the map with if required. You will encounter your first enemy on the way, a lone Bokoblin. Use this opportunity to practice basic combat skills, particularly locking on to a target (hold ), strafing and dodging (hold, then tilt and press ), and attacking. If you don't yet feel very comfortable with the combat system, avoid fights against multiple enemies for now and make your way directly to the waypoint shown on the mini-map: the Sheikah terminal found inside a small rock structure. This will raise the Great Plateau Tower (along with all the other towers in Hyrule) and reveal the regional map.

From the top of the tower, survey the surrounding region to locate the Great Plateau's four orange-glowing shrines. When you spot one, activate your scope by pressing, then align the reticle on the shrine and press to place a pin on it. This will add a colored icon to your map and mini-map at the position of a landmark, making it much easier to keep track of it. Two shrines are clearly visible to the west and the northwest, while the other two are further away to the south and southwest. Once you have a pin on each of the four shrines, move between the ledges in a clockwise direction as you make your way back down to ground level.

Oman Au Shrine
At the foot of the tower, you will receive your next main quest: "The Isolated Plateau". The old man asks you to visit your first shrine, to the north of your current position. Interacting with the terminal at the entrance will activate the building, turning it into a new fast travel destination. This means that you can simply select this shrine from anywhere in the world while looking at your map and warp to it instantly. This applies to all towers and shrines that you activate. Step on the elevator platform inside the building and examine it to head down into the shrine. Before you do so, however, consider heading to one of the nearby ponds to catch a Hyrule bass, and to the nearby Forest of Spirits to the west to obtain raw meat from a fox or boar: this will come in handy very soon.
