Tears of the Kingdom player spends 6 months and 1,885 hours collecting 999,999 Poe because they were "curious"
A Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom player has spent six months and 1,855 hours collecting 999,999 Poe beneath Hyrule, all because they were curious.
As first reported by Automaton Media, the Twitter user seen below proclaimed last week that they'd discovered the maximum number of Poe players can collect in Tears of the Kingdom. These are the little wisp-like spirits scattered around the Depths underneath Hyrule, and the player's determination has revealed you can collect a maximum of 999,999 Poe.

They told the outlet that on days where they had more time on their hands, they'd do three of these routes, totaling just over 16,000 Poe in over 12 hours.
