    Great game, first Zelda I have played since ocarina of time. Lives up to the hype if your looking for a skyrimish twist on Zelda.

    Love the new systems and that finding a way to save the kingdom is a heartfelt struggle. The intro of the game brought me to tears.

    Even though the game suffers from some frame rate issues which does bother me to some degree, the game as a whole is just pure fun. It might not have the best story ever, nor the best looking graphics out there, but the overall experience deserves a perfect score in my opinion. Definitely a must play!

    A huge step above the previous title; Skyward Sword. Hands down the most I put into any Zelda game, and I didn't expect that at all. I felt compelled to finish any possible side quests and do as much of the side content as I possibly could. This game isn't a solid 10/10 by my standards. Its more of a 9.7/10 But I feel bad giving this game a 9/10 (especially with the Sony and MicrosoftA huge step above the previous title; Skyward Sword. Hands down the most I put into any Zelda game, and I didn't expect that at all. I felt compelled to finish any possible side quests and do as much of the side content as I possibly could. This game isn't a solid 10/10 by my standards. Its more of a 9.7/10 But I feel bad giving this game a 9/10 (especially with the Sony and Microsoft fanboys obliterating this game's user score out of butthurt. Honestly the only reason I'm writing this review. If Sony/Microsoft fans can do it, so can we. Its fair.) The world is filled with things to explore. Various different things to fight, various different ingredients to find, a buttload of hidden shrines and puzzles to solve. And of course the main story, which I would argue is one of the more interesting stories in all of the currently existing Zelda lore. I wouldn't consider the story super deep or intricate, but it certainly is extremely enjoyable. Which is about as much as I expect out of a Zelda game. The combat in this Zelda game is by far the best in any Zelda game. There has never been a Zelda game I considered "difficult" in terms of combat, and this game is the sole exception to that. In the beginning of the game, the combat is exceptionally difficult, as every bit of health you take can be a deadly amount. As the game goes on, you learn the combat more, and also gain more health, ultimately giving the combat a very fair thing to learn. Of course you gain more benefits from doing the side content to (namely in terms of health, defense, and stamina, as well as better equipment that makes combat easier).

    That being said, I do have some problems with it. Namely the main complaint is the shock element. Shock is an insanely broken element when used against you. No amount of shock resistance can save you from it. Another problem I had with it were the gyro puzzles in shrines. I've played this both on the Wii U and the Switch versions, and the Switch does the gyro based puzzles just fine. However, the Wii U version has major issues with the gyro controls. Another problem is that I feel the amount of Koroks is extremely excessive. Supposedly there are around 900 of them. I am fine with the 120 shrines because those are very large structures and the overall reward for completing them is incredible. But with Koroks, you only ever want to find enough to upgrade your melee weapon inventory to hold all the weapons you want. Upgrading the bow total and shield total is ultimately useless as those don't break nearly as often. In short, its not worth finding all 900 of those little schmucks. One final problem I have with the game is that I feel the combat becomes less rewarding as the game goes on. And I found myself wanting more from it after a certain amount of time playing the game.

    tl;dr this game is far from perfect, I rate it a solid 9.7 out of 10.    … Expand

    Venga va tengo que decirlo soy nintendero, aunque me crié con consolas de Sony (PS1 y PS2). Hago mi primera review porque estoy harto de que gente sin haber jugado o ni PROBADO el juego coja y le ponga un 0 de nota. Ni el Zelda ni el Horizon (que fanboys enfermizos de ambas partes se tiran basura sin sentido) se merecen ni un 0 (y ni un 10) y le pido a Metacritic que mejore sus reviews de usuario o se cargarán a este sitio web. Pero sin más dilatación... anal, comencemos.
    "El aliento salvaje": Este juego desde el principio te guía y no le das mucha importancia a lo que ves a tu alrededor... solo sigues el camino como quien dice (ya saben como los demás Zeldas)... pero hay un momento donde te dan libertad absoluta y hasta esa lucecita que ves al fondo te llenará de curiosidad... y ahí es donde vez el maravilloso mundo. Todo te picará de curiosidad, hasta cuando cocinas (yo en lo personal cada vez que cocino me entusiasma mucho ver la nueva comida que voy a desbloquear; por cierto les recomiendo juntar 5 trufas milenarias ya que te dan una comida chetadísima), también sentirás curiosidad por ver que hay más allá (es más les recomiendo que paseen por todo Hyrule que yo la vez pasada me encontré en el lago Hylia un dragón de electricidad que salía del propio agua, que ya me olvidé su nombre por cierto, y por el noroeste, en un cañón, hay un dragón de fuego que si mal no me equivoco se llama Eldra... y eso que los descubrí sin estimármelo, así que ya imaginareis mi asombro). Y mucha gente dice que a esta Hyrule le falta vida y no es así; ya que tienes condiciones climáticas que te dificultarán o facilitarán algunas actividades (como llover que te hace resbalar mientras escalas).
    "No es necesario el DLC": Hay misiones secundarias de todo tipo y unas "Pruebas heroicas" que son más complicadas. Y por resolverlas te darán nuevas armas y hasta nuevas vestimentas.
    "¿Un Zelda sin buena banda sonora?" Esto es cierto por parte.... el juego no tiene una banda sonora digna de Twilight Princess; pero yo creo que hicieron esto así pera que puedas escuchar el sonido del entorno y que el juego tenga más inmersión (osea que te sientas como el protagonista de la historia)... como el de la lluvia, pisadas de Link en el pasto, los pajaros trinar, los perrros aullando cuando mueren (no la verdad este no me mola mucho). En Switch se escucha mejor que en WiiU eh.
    "El legado de Zelda": A decir verdad este juego no rompe con lo básico del juego, osea es más de lo mismo, (y con lo básico me refiero a que Zelda necesita de Link para derrotar a Ganon) pero si han cambiado algunas cosas... como implementar a los campeones (con sus "bestias divinas" respectivamente) y que Link haya despertado luego de 100 años.
    "La inmersión es lo primero": Esta es la parte en donde me luzco. Mientras vayas progresando en el juego irás conociendo a cada campeón y sus pasados contigo... Al principio del juego te dicen que todos los campeones están muertos (luego del cataclismo claro) y a ti te dá meh... porque no los llegaste a conocer... pero conforme vayas descubriendo el pasado de cada campeón te vas encariñando más con ellos a tales puntos como el caso de Mipha, que ella es (porque su espíriu sigue vivo) una preciosísima princesa zora y campeona... que estaba enamorada de ti (de Link no de ti eh) y ella era muy dulce y cuando al final hablas con su espíritu se alegra por verte de nuevo y te jura que "SIEMPRE TE PROTEGERÁ", y esa parte del juego es tan melancólica que me puse a llorar durante 10 min. en serio; con Revali, sientes cierto odio por su egocentrimo; con Urbosa sientes seguridad y confianza, ya que es una gerudo muy fuerte y muy apuesta y con Daruk, sentirás confianza y optimismo, por la manera en que te habla... y con Zelda... al principio no te cae bien... pero resulta ser una dulzura de princesa que solo está desesperada por ayudar de alguna forma. Pero si bien tienes muchos sentimientos con los personajes secundarios, estos son desaprovechados en la historia principal y no barajaran (influenciarán) de ninguna manera la historia.
    "Eventos inesperados": Este juego esta lleno de minieventos inesperados... como en la aldea Kakariko, que Apaya (la nieta de Impa) cuando llueve entra corriendo a la casa y te dice que le gusta el sonido de la lluvia, ya que la relaja (por cierto cada vez que acabes con una bestia divina ella va escribir algo nuevo en su diario, y ella te ama en secreto jeje) y así hay más.

    PD: Estoy enamorado de Mipha, Zelda lo quieran o no tiene un culazo y es una dulzura y Link esta tobueno (y eso que soy hombre xD). Me pueden seguir en Twitter e Instagram con mi mismo nombre. Ha sido un placer.    … Expand

    It is not a 10 score game, but it's definitely not a 7.5 either. (current user score while I'm writing this) It has its weird Japanese solutions and design, but the game has a very unique atmosphere, and wherever you go, you will find interesting and new things. It's totally different experience than other open world games. Few more titles like this one, and my Switch purchase is justified.

BOTW rompe completamente con esto y ofrece un mundo abierto real, donde no hace falta hacer las mazmorras salvo que así lo desees, aunque finalmente si quieres vivir la historia del juego deberás pasar por ellas.

    Vivimos en un momento donde los juegos, y sus notas, se miden en resolución y FPS en vez de medirlos en lo que realmente cuenta, vivencia, experiencia, transmisión de emociones, y si, es cierto, Zelda no va tan si quiera a 1080p y no corre a 60fps, pero es que da completamente igual una vez te metes en el juego, el apartado artístico es el mejor que he visto en años, los sonidos, los detalles, la jugabilidad impecable, la grandeza que se siente y es que nada más empezar te empiezas a sentir parte de Hyrule, esta vez de verdad, por primera vez he sentido la necesidad de salvar el Reino y esto me ha mantenido horas y horas pegado a la pantalla.

    I'm giving this game a 10/10 not because it is without flaws, but because it has exceeded expectations in such a way that minor flaws can be rightfully forgiven.

    Breath of the Wild is setting a new standard for open world game mechanics, the same way Ocarina of Time set a new standard for 3D adventure games when it came out.

    Links movements, running, jumping and especially climbing provide a very fluid, responsive and organic sense of control for the players. Never has exploration been this intuitive and accessible when the player character is given this freedom of movement. This is solidified by a large game world full of content that rewards explorations.

    The combat is fun and challenging, especially early to mid game. It becomes easy, even exploitable late game, but that's the inevitable results of us gamers being ever so skillful and crafty. The weapon durability system serves the purpose of resource management gameplay. But I can see how it could've or should've been implemented better to be more fun and less annoying.

    There are some occasional frame-rate issues unfortunately, but considering the technical feats of this game running on a tablet machine, it's forgivable.    … Expand

    BotW is a truly phenomenal game, but it's by no means the perfect game the press makes it out to be. There are so many fun and intriguing things to do in a beautiful and full world.

I wouldn't hesitate for a second to recommend the game to someone, but it'd come with some "things you should know" tips.

    Even though i love this game, i personally feel like there should be more story to it, and i hope the dlc will bring that. The other thing is of cource the fps but since the second update solved the most of it is barely worth mentioning.

    I started playing games in 1986 and still remember my feelings of awe when seeing The Legend of Zelda for the first time at a friend's place. I would nag at my parents and after almost a year finally got that beloved golden cartridge myself. I remember drawing maps, talking with my friends to share secrets of where to burn bushes and blow up walls. The sense of adventure was palpable. (TheI started playing games in 1986 and still remember my feelings of awe when seeing The Legend of Zelda for the first time at a friend's place. I would nag at my parents and after almost a year finally got that beloved golden cartridge myself. I remember drawing maps, talking with my friends to share secrets of where to burn bushes and blow up walls. The sense of adventure was palpable. (The only experience that came close back then was possibly Metroid.)

    Since then I've rarely had the same feeling of wonder and discovery again, if ever. Until now.

    FYI, I really liked Final Fantasy VII & IX, Pro Evolution Soccer, Wipeout 2097 and many versions of Assassin's Creed so you know a bit more about my game taste. I never finished Majora's Mask (loved the town with its quests but didn't really fall for the rest) or Skyward Sword (too little time on my hands). So my full Zelda experiences have been LoZ, AoL, LttP, OoT, WW and TP plus the handheld versions. I've never been in the camp of "OoT is the best game ever". In fact, my opinion - after LttP - has been that Zelda games are good to great games but not outstanding (while outstanding in their craft, not outstanding for my enjoyment). With BotW I expected more of the same. Boy was I wrong.

    This game captures that childhood sense of wonder once more. That sense of adventure, exploring the unknown, along with trepidation for what might be around the next corner or mountain top has kept me on my toes. Many say the story is not good, but I love the story and how its pieces fit together like those of a great puzzle. From finding clues about main characters' feelings in books to flashbacks from the past, it all becomes a coherent whole. Of course, if you don't go exploring you will miss out. But to me the whole meaning of the game is exploration so well done.

    I am now 100+ hours in and have done almost all I can do in this game and must commend the devs on how they have built learning and stronger weapon drops and enemies cleverly into the game. However, I would like to point out the following things that I really would have liked to see in the season pass expansion and that were lacking from this game:

    - somewhere to train your combat skills to upgrade them. I've always loved the feeling of meeting a master somewhere and getting to learn special combat moves throughout the game. (Btw, please include the super cool wind waker move of jumping over an enemy and attacking while doing so ;) Just because it's a semirealistic world you've put us in please don't deprive us of cool combat moves, though kudos on bow slow motion move - love that)
    - more hard to beat human-like enemies like those cool knights in other 3D Zeldas (I think in the end of both OoT and Wind Waker you meet knights in armour that are tougher to beat without special moves.)
    - a city filled with throngs of people and stuff to do - maybe set the season pass to play out some years after BotW (where you can go all Majora's Mask and Assassin's Creed on missions ;) - minus the over the top violence to fit the Zelda series)
    - maybe above all, more/cooler bosses. Might just me my preference, but I much prefer "non-scifi" bosses like big dodongos, three-headed dragons, spiders that look like spiders, all human forms of Ganon (Ganondorf), Shadow Link and such that require well timed moves and skills.

    With that said, this game has given me more enjoyment from a game than I've had since those childhood days. I can't give it bigger praise than that. Thank you for this experience.    … Expand

With Breath of the Wild Nintendo nailed what nostalgic gamers loved about sitting up til 4 am playing a SNES or N64 classic.

    Oh boy did I not regret the decision at all! This game is superb! I wouldn't consider myself an avid gamer, because most of the time I only play Fifa. I dont enjoy another types of games as much as Fifa. The final game I played on PS4 was Digimon World Next Order, and I didn't even want to play games like GTA5 or Uncharted 4 or even Bloodborne despite most of them being on sale on PS Store.

    But this Zelda game is different, at least to me. First time I played it, I couldnt stop playing and I tried to find time (even 1 minute will do) to play it whenever I can, be it on a train, waiting for meals or even in toilette! (not recommended to do this)

    Too many people have said what is needed to say, and I just want to say this: this is a game that suits almost all type of people. You can go slow, spend all your time exploring the world and not be bothered by the main story, or you can just go straight up face Ganon after you finish the first 4 Shrines. There isn't wrong or right, you can just do anything that you want to do. Personally, I relish fighting Lynels, though it have been a little boring to me because I know too well their attacks and how to deal with every single one of them.

    I can climb a random mountain or swim to the middle of an anonymous looking lake and I'll be given a new side quest to take on. I set out on the side quest and, 3 hours later, after being sidetracked by who knows what... I may get around to completing it.

    I just cannot quite get my head around the insane weight of unique, interesting and challenging content in this game. I've played many open world games over the last 10 years or so and none of them come close to the variety and sense of wonder that BOTW provides.

    - too large maps and meaningless its distances(especially in free-to-warp shrines) as in a game system.
    - and separated Enemy's area and AIs."open-worlds" applied only in player's travel.
    - Roughly enemy's re-spawning system and in-game economics management automatically.Lack of enemies and re-spawned all suddenly.
    - Some contents belonged to so called "fake" old-standard Japanese Villages as like Studio Ghibli worked previously
    - its story offers a little to learn.
    - The Concluding : A lot of works and developers generated A bit of an originality.
    - Overpriced within a based Nintendo Switch.

Cuando probé este juego pensé " LOOOOOOOOL" y acto seguido mi cabeza casi estalla al ver semejante perfección. Una cosa que no puedo comprender es el boicot que se le ha hecho a este juego en las reviews de usuarios en forma de poner un 0, cuando ni siquiera han probado el juego, al igual que tampoco comprendo a los que le ponen un 10, cuando tampoco lo han probado. Tampoco comprendo notas tan mediocres hechas por analistas como un 6 o un 7. Yo creo que este juego debe ser incluso mejor valorado que Ocarina of Time, ya que cabe mencionar, que aunque este juego no parezca mucha cosa, es un BICHO del software, en cuanto a físicas, mecánicas, puzzles, etc se refiere. Yo le doy un 10, porque es un juego muy entretenido y adictivo, y con una historia, que te hará llorar a cántaros. Recomiendo JUGAR antes de JUZGAR.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Despite what users say for no reason this game is far from a waste of money. Wonder full Replay value and the shrine system is beautiful. It calls for adventure and exploring which is something we haven't had for a long time.Also, compared to other zelda titles this game has an open world that is not bland and boring, you can always find something new even if it is just a random treasure chest.

    The ending felt good, after defeating Calamity Gannon which is a test of the skills you learned at the divine beasts you get to fight Dark Beast Gannon which is both easy and intense. Dark Beast mostly focuses on Archery with Calamity focusing mostly on Swords and Shields. Even after I beat Gannon I still had things to do and I plan on getting the expansion pack via the Nintendo E shop soon. Would defiantly recommend this game to all ages and all people for this is a masterpiece.

    I played Witcher Wild Hunt before trying this game so, didn't liked graphics and styles much at first.
    However, this game has really good balances between enemies and player character. Also, lots of things to do and lots of place to travel.
    Map size seemed small at first glance but, you will find that this games whole map size is really huge as I started to compare with Witcher Wild Hunt when I activated 2 towers.
    I loved GTA5 and Witcher Wild Hunt but, couldn't find such games that have lots of things to look, to do, as well as well balanced system like them.
    Now this game is one of my top 3 games which I really enjoyed, and love and would suggest to anyone who's looking for fun games.
    These 3 games can give you what open world game really means as well as what a 'game' truly means.

You find better weapons by exploring farther areas of the map or beating more powerful enemies. The music is very subtle and slow and only changes when you enter new areas like cold regions or villages. I thought the story was typical and over all not that interesting. The voice acting was sloppy and dialog wasn't any better than previous Zelda games but the final boss fight and ending was well done and the game play was very smooth during the whole sequence. The game play in general was very fun and interesting full of cool little physics things like fire making an up-draft that can be used to fly up, things tumbling down hills, metal and water conducting electricity. The world is HUGE its like the size of Ocarina of Time times 150! The sights you can see from on top of a mountain or tower are truly astonishing. The Gibli style animation is beautiful. All the little things and details you can see give you this overwhelming feeling that you’re never going to find everything.

    Do not get turned off by all of the negative reviews bashing the game because it's not an Ocarina of Time remake. This game has changed a lot, and I believe it's a move for the best.

    The lack of heart containers has made, what looks to be 1,201 people mad. Well I have to say I really like the system they implemented to get hearts. You have to solve puzzles that are hidden around the world to get spirit orbs. Four spirit orbs can give you heart piece. What all the haters don't realize is a spirit orb is essentially a heart piece itself, just like in the older games you need 4 spirit orbs (heart pieces) to have 1 complete new heart. It's the exact same as the old games except that you take 1 extra step.

    The weapon structure is a lot different. Here you have weapons with durability which make the game feel more realistic. I actually think it feels more "Zelda-esq" because of the environment. The Master Sword is NOT breakable like many of the negative reviews indicate, it simply needs to recharge after a certain time and that time is very short.

    Some of the negative reviews complain about the "lack of dungeons" but many Zelda games only have a few main dungeons. A great example includes Majora's Mask. There are 120 shrines which include puzzles that without a guide can be difficult. These shrines provide all the puzzle you would need for the game while the wilderness provides all the fighting you would need.

    Enemies are not necessarily difficult to kill, however Link can die very easily. Certain monsters can nearly 1 shot kill you even at a high enough number of bars. Obviously as the game goes on you get stronger but I like the difficulty.

    Traveling in this game is extremely easy. You can tame wild horses, or travel to any one of more than 130 locations on the map instantaneously across all the zones.
    Overall this is a great game to play and a great addition to the Zelda franchise. It is a deviation from the tried and true Zelda games and I believe it is a move in the right direction. Some people may not like it but it is FAR from a waste of money. In the case that you like the direction they took the game you will be extremely happy. In the case that you do not like the direction the game is still well worth its money.

    With all that said, I also have some gripes but there is no game I feel is perfect either. Initially it took some time getting used to the freedom the game gives you, I hated this at first but really enjoyed it after several hours of play. Also the Master Sword takes a while to get to without a guide and I rather have it as quick as possible. Lastly I was frustrated with the difficulty at fighting enemies at first, but this also goes away quickly as you learn the game.

    I hope they release additional Zelda games similar to this. I would continue to buy the game immediately.    … Expand

It's a big departure from the franchise in a lot of ways, but it does not disappoint (much). Bottom line is this game will keep you rapt for MANY hours of play time and has a TON of content to offer in the form of places to explore, enemies to fight, puzzles to solve, and side quests. I won't ramble on, but I would like to touch on the hits and misses of this game:

    Hits:
    1) Open world. Map is huge and beautiful
    2) Graphics. Beautiful, realistic yet very "cartoon". Fits perfect for the game.
    3) Game play feels very open-ended and not boxed in like most other Zelda titles, though there are definitely easier and harder dungeons. If you try to go for the Gerudo area in the beginning with 3 hearts, for example... well good luck to ya!
    4) Combat systems and controls very good. Aiming the bow and arrow by tilting the controller in 2 axis works amazingly well. Controller has 3 axis gyros which will be used in some of the puzzles.
    5) Many hours of game play in the main quest + side quests. Probably 40 hours on the short end and 80+ if you have your fun with it.
    6) Climbing ability is awesome and very freeing. No more awkwardly hopping up slopes of mountains like Skyrim (man that sucked, right?!).

    Misses (and these are big misses!):
    1) Weapon durability is LUDICROUS. Like, I don't even know how this part made it past testing. Some of the bows wear out and explode after shooting 5-6 arrows.. Seriously? The melee weapons generally last 1-2 enemies, which is just over the top. It's just plain frustrating and annoying having to constantly be throwing away weapons and finding new ones, especially when the fancy "powered up" weapons break hella quick.
    2) Lightning physics. In some areas, lightning storms happen like ALL THE FREAKING TIME and will destroy you. I went out of my way to get the "Rubber Tights" (LOL), which are supposedly electro-resistant and a lightning hit still sucks 10 hearts or more out of me and makes me drop my **** Also, if you're in the sky on your paraglider, you can get struck by lightning. Physics 101 fail. No ground, no electricution. Derp.
    3) Where the hell is the iconic Zelda music? It's so sparse. You only get music maybe 10% of the time. Feels like Nintendo rushed this title out and skimped on soundtrack.
    4) Nintendo has done away with hearts, but you cook your meals... Ths is cool, but they also allow you to shoot completely innocent animals and eat them, as it, for example, shows a little icon of a beautiful fox turning into a steak. WTF, Nintendo... This is not very Zelda IMO. It's a fantasy world. We need not bring the ugliest aspects of humanity into it.
    5) Related to point (4), docile animals like does (that's a female deer for those not in the know) will run and charge at you when startled and sometimes hurt you and knock you down. Major fail. That's not how things work. Deer are afraid of people. They will run away. It's like Nintendo is trying to make it easier for disturbed little children to go out and torture the neighbor's cat after a session of gaming.
    6) The dungeons are a bit repetitive. Find the sometimes-annoyingly hidden "terminals", activate the devine beast, fight a Ganon variation, have a snack, move on.
    7) Koroks to find everywhere, but no payoff. There's apparently literally HUNDREDS of them. I've found like..... 15..... accidently. Woot. Or not.
    8) Graphics choke up bad sometimes. Not a lot, but when they do it can be BAD, like locked up or dipping to sub 1 fps in a combat. No bueno for a new system.

    Hope that sums it up. If you have a Switch, of course buy this game. Don't even think twice about it. Play it, enjoy it, and hope Nintendo fixes some of this crap in the next round. I'm not giving this game a 10 though, as way too many have. It's not perfect. It's a damn good game though. I'm settling squarely on 8.0, though I'd say maybe more an 8.5 if I had decimal capabilities on here.    … Expand

Zelda: Breath of the Wild is almost “trolling” the competition with a vast map to explore, where hunting for stuff is fun and can allow for casual game play that is fun and extends the time you want to play around in the “playground” Nintendo delivers. Enemy AI and toughness scales well, with the only negative being weapons breaking easy early on, which just gets you to take a more proactive approach to using the map market features, and quick travel to shrines, after each Blood Moon to hoard up on stronger, more durable, weapons.

    I’ve put 65 hours in to the game so far and have almost 90 shrines and it is still the main game I enjoy playing to relax, over any other game released since Breath of the Wilds release.

    Other developers should take note of how Nintendo leveraged animation to overcome the lack of compute power compared to the PS4/5 and X Box One and Series X because I am in no need to rush into next gen when a game as good as this exists.    … Expand

The controls and gameplay are some of the best I have ever seen. Botw was the first Zelda game I had ever played due to me not knowing much about the franchise but due to it getting such great reviews I decided to pick it up. I was not disappointed whatsoever. The gameplay is stellar, the world is full of puzzles and hidden NPC quests for you to complete and you are constantly finding new and exciting things. The story is quite shallow but however for what the game is about (exploring a destroyed kingdom and its remains.) the story fills its purpose.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Legend of Zelda breath of the Wild is an amazing single player experience that must not be skipped on. Even thought it isn't perfect in every aspect (no game will ever trully be), this game makes you engage in everything you do, from killing nasty moblins to the vast cooking options you have. The world physics are the best ever seen in any game to date. But what really makes this title stand out from all other open world competitors is the cheer amount of freedom you have. Since the first time you step out of the Shrine of Resurrection nothing tells you how you are suposed to play the game. You have to figure it out yourself, with some very cleaver and smart clues hidden across the "tutorial". After you complete this "tutorial", the game advices you to go to a certain place, but nothing holds you back to just sprint immediately to the hyrulle castle and try to save Zelda.

    The down notes I have are minor, but they add up. First up, I loves the fact that we had voice acting, but in the english version there seemed to be something off with the voices sometimes. I would also like to point out that even thought I had a lot of fun with the shrines in the game, they seem to become a bit repetitive due to the lack of different art style in them.They all feel the same. The last negative point is one that a lot of people might not agree with, but I consider the 4 main dungeons (the Beasts) quite tedious. They felt weird and, again, they all had the same art style. I would have loved the salamander to be filled with lava walls and fire stuff, maybe some new fire enemies. The fact that all the bosses were pretty much the same doesn't help. And , besides the gerudo one, they were way too easy. I would have loved, for example, if we had to have fought the dead champions to free them because gannon had gained control of their body. Or fight a real salamander in the lava one, a real camel monster in the gerudo one, something along those lines.

    Concluding, this game is an absolute masterpiece, not perfect, but not too far. I can't wait what nintendo does with this concept it shows so much potencial.    … Expand

    Where it takes mechanics from others in the industry, it improves upon them; where it introduces new ones, you slap your forehead in amazement that it hasn’t been done before. Breath of the Wild is development done right, and damn near the best game you’ll play all year.

    Up there with the finest Zelda games, Breath of the Wild is bold, liberating, and utterly astonishing. [Apr 2017, p.60]
