10 Open World Locations You Shouldn't Enter
2. Coliseum Ruins - Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild
What makes Breath of the Wild stand out from the Zelda games before it is its wholehearted embrace of the open-world format. It would give you a general direction, but in no way stop you from doing your own thing.
Why, it won't even stop you from entering the Coliseum Ruins. It'll just sit back and laugh as the horrors within pummel you into a vaguely Hylian-shaped puddle.
The Coliseum Ruins are adaptive to your progress in the game, both in terms of enemies, and the loot you get for defeating them. By default, the ruins are filled with black bokoblins and moblins, with one silver lynel - one of the toughest enemies in the game - in the center. Needless to say, not a fun time if you go in here unprepared.
So why go in at all? Because the loot drops from defeating the enemies in here increase in power depending on how many divine beasts you've freed. However, the Lynel in the center also gets stronger. God help you if you go in after finishing all four, because while the weapon drops are definitely worth it, waiting for you will be the rare - and punishingly difficult - Golden Lynel.
Do not step into this ring unless you are prepared to bring the pain.
