personally i used recall most of the time i wanted to fly, everytime i want to fly from one island to another i move the glider up and forward, then put it in the ground and then i use recall, it's quite nice
I think it was pretty obvious that the game wanted you to start with the Rito, then do the Gorons, then the Zora, and finally the Gerudo, so I think it’s cool that the abilities happened to be unlocked in descending power order. Also I think Riju’s power would be much better if it would prompt to activate when drawing your bow like when Tulin with gliding or Yunobo with driving
