    Breath of the wild is nothing less than a masterpiece. The world itself seems to just take me on an adventure even if it has nothing to do with the actual storyline.

I seem to like just making adventures within the game for myself as I tend to use the fast travel tool-less so I can explore the world and make an adventure out of every travel. An example of the emersion I've had with this game was when I found I went to one of the fairies places to upgrade new ancient armour I had just bought. Once I upgraded one of my pants I do it the next level had questions marks on it as though there was a fourth level I needed. I searched up about the fairy fountains and discovered their was one in thee gerudo region way of into the unknown but I needed 10,000 rupees to open it up to get the upgrade. I went back onto my phone and tried to find a way to make money and I found out about a snow bowling game which I had seen when I was playing the game last year. I see the next trick is to shoot a dragon for some dragon horns to sell but a long ranged bow was needed. The one mention was in a certain regions so I decided to explore their find camps of enemies with the bow and even one of those stone talius things. I still couldn't fine any so I decided it was time to fast travel. I went to the birds peoples place and the bows was just siting on the table as someone allowed me to keep it. Once I found the bow it was time to go over the do the snow bolwing which seemed like an easy way to make money. I earnt a few thousand rupee's but then left to go to the other farming place. No shrine was around so this time I needed to climb up to a point so I could camp, where I found another Stone Talius and by that time I had nearly wasted most of my arrows so the dragon didn't really matter. I went over anyway for a bit, sleeping and camping and got another few thoushdand until I had enough. This little expeditatiion took a few hours to do but unlike most game I have played it didn't ever feel like a chore or a pain to do this activities that accomplished very little as it was just enjoying living in the world of Hyrule.

There's so much to explore, so much you can choose whether or not you want to do. You want to rush into the castle immediatly after leaving the great plateau? Sure go ahead, it'll be more difficult but you can do it. You want to explore the entire world and complete every single shrine? It will definitely take a while, but you can do that too! The combat is also much deeper than you might think. You can always go the tried and true "unga bunga with weapon" approach, and yeah that will get the job done. Or you could try and pick them all off from a distance with a bow and arrow. Or you could roll a remote bomb into some explosive barrels and walk away from the explosion like a cool guy. Or you could use magnesis and drop a giant metal crate onto their head. These are just a few ways you can go about dealing with them. Not every way you can choose to do things will be as effective as the other choices, but the fact that you can choose to handle a situation in so many ways is absolutely incredible. Every time I want to do another playthrough of this game, I always find something new to enjoy, some new way to approach an encounter or an area, and that is incredible. To put it simply, this game gives you a lot of freedom to do what you want, and there are tons of things you could want to do. I, like so many people, absolutely adore this game, and if you for some reason haven't already given this game a try yet, I cannot recommend it enough.… Expand

    I had never played a Zelda game before BOTW. Open world is fun and exciting, different weapons, arrows, and ways to employ them is a good time. Clearly a work of art, but weirded out by some of the other commenters bringing a religious zeal to the reviews section. Let's all settle down.

    As someone who love open world games and have played so many great critically acclaimed open world games before, i will say that this is the definitive open world game. The only open world game where i appreciate empty space and don't ask myself "can i actually go there?" cause the answer is usually "yes"

The combat feels great when you execute a perfect dodge, and exploring, finding shrines, and doing side quests are super enjoyable (for the most part). The story works great, and I think that the divine beasts, while a bit boring aesthetically, are somewhat short, making them rarely drag on or get annoying, while still providing somewhat challenging puzzles. The respect it has for the rest of the Zelda series is awesome, while still providing a very new and unique experience. Some say that the stamina or weapon durability is annoying, but in my opinion, they definitely improve the fun, as you can upgrade and use stamina smartly, and you are rarely out of weapons. The physics-based puzzles are mostly well done and fun. Of course, the game isn't perfect and has many frustrating things, like framerate issues, and kinda bad voice acting, but honestly? I think that it still deserves a solid 10/10. If for some reason you own a Switch or Wii U and haven't played this game, you absolutely will not regret it. I know I didn't!… Expand

    This is an AMAZING game. I am currently on my second playthrough. So much to see and do, I constantly find things that I missed the first time through.

    The only problem I have with the game is the rain. It rains entirely too often and early on in the game when you have low stamina its a bit of a ball ache.

    I didn't like this game. It felt like a lazy tech demo. Every dungeon is copy and pasted. Just lacking the charm of older games. Also on my first play through I got arbosas fury and that over powered the rest of the game for me. Just a dumb game.

    The best video game of the 21st century.
    Incredible open world experience.If Ocarina of Time defines the presentation form of 3D games, then Breath of the Wild can be said to redefine what is truly an open world game.

This entry is very different to other titles in the series and feels almost like a survival game in a way. If you have a flaming sword and you strike wood, it makes a campfire. If you go out in the snowy mountains, Link's cheeks will get red from the cold. This game has so many small details like that packed into one small cartridge I'm still finding new things every time I boot up the game. Unlike any other Zelda game, weapons break, which, especially early on, makes you think about how you can take on this enemy (or get away) rather then just swinging your sword blindly. In terms of story, its simple. VERY simple. Your objective is to beat Ganon, and you can do that as soon as you finish the tutorial or after you collect all 900 Korok seeds. It's your choice. I think this game will be looked at very fondly in the future, and will be held up alongside Ocarina of Time, as not only one of the greatest Zelda games ever made, but one of the greatest games period.… Expand

    The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild это первая Зельда в которую я играл. Так что буду судить не как фанатик серии, а с точки зрения итереса, погружения и общего удобства геймплея.

    Да игра очень масштабная, можно пробежать за десяток часов, а можно и все 60 убить. Мир очень большой и не пустой, в нем всегда есть что делать.
    Выглядит игра не плохо, картинка очень приятная, конечно о какой либо супер детализации говорить не приходится это же Swich. Очень интересные загадки в святилищах и чудищах, но с оговоркой о которой написал ниже. История в принципе понравилась, но подаётся она очень странно, в редких кат-сценах. Во всё остальное время это только текст и что то пищащие и угукающие нпс.
    Теперь о том, что мне не понравилось.
    Это боевая система она какая то не отзывчивая, нет перекатов, уворотов, а очень хочется.
    Оружие тоже так себе, оно всё за редким исключением очень хрупкое, по сильным врагам достаточно 10 ударов и оно разлетается. Может это фишка, но мне она не понравилась.
    Конечно же меню вещмешка, на мой взгляд самое неудобное какое мне только встречалось. В нем разные вещи разделены по типам, но ощущение такое, что всё свалено в одну кучу и иногда приходится перелистывать все мечи, луки, стрелы, костюмы, ингредиенты, что бы добраться до какой нибудь лечилки. Очень не удобно.
    Теперь про святилища. Уровень сложности в них скачет от очень легких до жопораздирающих, на прохождение которых уходит более часа времени, при том и за первые, и за вторые награда одинаковая.
    Так же мне не понравились враги. Их очень мало разновидностей. В разных областях карты встречаются одни и те же монстры но в разной одежде, разного цвета и с разной шкалой здоровья.
    Наконец прокачка. Она какая то очень простенькая для рпг.
    А ещё у меня Ва-Рудания зависла на горе смерти, да так, что пройти это чудище стало невозможно, так как в игре всего десять или меньше сейвов (которые обновляются сами по себе стирая более старые). Пришлось проходить игру сначала.
    Ещё крайне бесили "кроволуния", на мой взгляд явлениние через чур частое. При этом в игре нет никакого гринда уровней.
    И так резюмирую.
    Игра далеко не идеальна, я не понимаю оценок в 10 из 10 и термина "идеал". Игре есть куда расти, в ней много недостатков, которые многие критики приписывают к фишкам. Что ж, это плохие фишки. Но у игры есть два абсолютно непререкаемых достоинства. Это атмосфера, она здесь на высоте и мобильность. Swich дарит возможность пройти игру где угодно, и это будет не вынос мозга и не вывих пальцев, а достаточно приятное времяпрепровождение.    … Expand

    Breath of The Wild was only my second Zelda game after Ocarina of Time 3D, but even I could tell the game was a far cry from the basic Zelda formula, which both adds and subtracts from the experience in my opinion.

    Fist of all.. oh baby this game is stunning, given the Switch's... relatively weak power output, many games have resigned themselves to unique art style > realism, which may be why I love the little thing so much, BoTW's art style is gorgeous, I found myself stopping in the middle of playing and just admiring the way the light reflected off the grass, or how the ruins of Hyrule looked from atop a mountain, it's so picturesque and I love every moment of exploration because of it.

    In stark contrast to the beautiful visual design, I found myself very disappointed in the audio, it's all ambiance, except for combat and Hyrule Castle, and I didn't really notice before I got to Hyrule Castle and noticed a remix of the old Overworld theme and it was beautiful, but it made me realize how barren the rest of the world is, in a bad way. some chirpy exploration music would have been nice, I know everything is in ruins and it's meant to be sad, but come on, something would have been nice.

    I hate to complain but, this version of Link, may be my least favourite of the 3D games. From Wind Waker onward Link has always been so expressive, and in a world with actual voice acting, you'd think Link would either have voice acting as well, or be EVEN MORE expressive than in Skyward Sword... he is not. Link barely emotes at all, even at the very end of the true ending after recovering all of Links memories and reuniting with Zelda, he doesn't even smile, he just stands there like a cute cardboard cutout. He doesn't react to fighting Ganon, he doesn't react to seeing long dead friends, he doesn't react to getting the Master Sword. I just hope this is fixed in the sequel, I've heard Link is quite expressive in Age of Calamity but I have yet to play that, so... hopefully it's fixed in the sequel.

    Link aside, the rest of the characters are pretty great, I love Zelda in this, almost as much as Skyward Sword Zelda or Tetra, watching her struggle is so grounding. Zelda has always felt so far away with Tetra being the exception, even in Skyward Sword, she quickly outpaces you and in Twilight Princess she's barely even there, but here, you feel so close to her. Though less so with the Old Champions, I still felt close to them too, Mipha has funky voice acting but she's endearing nonetheless, and for some reason the second fish woman to fall for Link, not sure why, Rivali is fun in the "I hate you" kind of way, I can't help but like him, but I'd really like to know how the Rito and Zora exist at the same time when the RIto evolved from the Zora to adapt to the new world after the goddesses flooded Hyrule. I want Urbosa to step on me, that is all. Daruk is fun, I enjoy the big older brother type, and I know "brother" is a speech quirk all Gorons have, but I still like hearing it from him. Likewise I found the new Champions quite endearing, none of them stand out to me, but hey, at least they're alive.

    Now for some totally original complaints that haven't been echoed a millions times already. Weapon degradation to too high, I don't like feeling nervous about using big cool shiny weapons I worked for, same goes for shields, but why can the Hylian Shield break? Isn't it meant to be the best shield? So doesn't breaking kind of negate that fact? The Master Sword doesn't break, even if it needs to recharge every few uses, at least it doesn't BREAK, what does that mean for the canon? is every Hylian Shield after this a replica?? I NEED ANSWERS NINTENDO! Next the dungeons, why aren't there any? The Sacred Beasts are fine, but get stale in design very quickly, none of their gimmicks are very interesting and the most fun part about them is how you get inside them, and the Shrines don't really make up for them either. And the story, why is all of it in Age of Calamity? There's a big story bit at the start, then some 40 hours later, a big story bit at the end, the middle is so empty, too empty, especially if you don't get all the memories or do all the Sacred Beasts, it's just disappointing.

    Overall, I love this game, it's not personally my favourite Zelda game, nor do I think it's the best one, but it's definitely up there, it's fun and that can't be understated, the art is great, the story -when it actually bloody shows its face- is so enthralling, and the world is just breathtaking, no pun intended. I just wish it had better dungeons, a more expressive Link and some more prevalent music, those aside, one of the best games on the Switch, easily.    … Expand

    A HUGE WORLD VOID OF MEANING

    I am a long time Zelda fan. I have played every Zelda title except some of the handheld games. I also enjoy the concept of open world. So, based on that, Breath of the Wild should could be a success, right? Well, it isn't. In fact, it's a massive failure of a game and I'm going to tell you why.

    I am a long time Zelda fan. I have played every Zelda title except some of the handheld games. I also enjoy the concept of open world. So, based on that, Breath of the Wild should could be a success, right? Well, it isn't. In fact, it's a massive failure of a game and I'm going to tell you why.

    BOTW has many flaws, but one of the most basic is the complete lack of narrative or story. This isn't a bad story; THERE IS NO STORY HERE. One key element of every Zelda since A link to the past has been a captivating, fairytale-like story. But BOTW has no story. A background and setting is presented, but that is all. You run across this vast landscape to complete four major tasks that are completely isolated from one another. In every good story there is a progression; the story BUILDS until it climaxes, and may take many turns on its way there. But BOTW has no storyline progression. It doesn't matter what you do, or when you do it. You might as well run to the final boss straight from the beginning if you're skilled enough. The side quests are also short, simple and meaningless. They are not layered or complex in any way and don't make me feel anything or care about any of the characters. For comparison one can look at Majoras Mask where there is so much optional content, but every side-story and optional quest is intruiging and provokes many emotions. With BOTW I simply feel nothing. There is no main story, there are no memorable characters and the side quests are pointless. And no; making an open world game is not an excuse for not having a narrative. There are many games that could accomplish both. Why they didn't even try with BOTW is a mystery.

    Another component is the lack of dungeons and levels. The level design (if there is one) is just bad. You just run around this random topography and climb a mountain, glide down, go through a forest, swim around etc. Even though the world is huge no matter where you go every place feels as meaningless as where you came from. There is no place on the map that has character. It's just a giant field of random terrain. Compare this to something like Ocarina of time that has such a small, yet rich world, where every place you visit has its own magic and meaning. The boss fights are also boring and poorly designed.

    With these huge flaws in place it feels almost like a bad joke how much time they have obiously spent on details such as cooking, weather and elemental effects. These things are not bad in themselves but to me they are of such minor importance. I simply do not care about running around and collecting flowers if I'm not driven by a captivating story and feel that the game is fun to play. BOTW is never fun to play it's just annoying running across these huge areas searching for shrines or loot.

    Another disturbing thing is that the game is basically devoid of music. Strong music is such a core part of any good Zelda game but this game has almost no music. And when there is music it is so quiet that it falls silently into the background.

    So what is this game then, to sum it up? It is a crappy survival simulator. There is no story, no meaningful characters, no dungeons, no fun item collection. The game has no progression. I don't feel like I'm moving forward. I'm just running around and collecting **** that grows everywhere until I'm finally strong enough to face the final boss. That's not a good Zelda game to me. It's not even a good game. After playing for a few hours my son said to me "let's play majoras mask instead". And we did, and it's such an amazing game. We did recently finish BOTW. Not because it was fun, but because we wanted to play it through before judgint it. And I am sad to say the first impression was right. This is the worst Zelda game ever and a bad game by any rating.

    Learn from this Nintendo and bring Zelda in the right direction with your next game. Open world gameplay can be implemented into Zelda, but not at the sacrifice of everything that made traditional Zelda good. Find a way to fix it or you're going to lose the players.    … Expand

What    97 on Metacritic. "Universal Acclaim". I honestly can't believe this, I'm baffled and speechless. This is hands down the most overrated game of the last decade.

    BOTW's premise is alluring. A seemingly endless, lush natural environment to explore as you please, with a credible physics model to support your adventures and encourage you to find creative ways to overcome obstacles. What could possibly go wrong?

    The first thing you do in this game is climbing on a tall tower, from which you can spot points of interest around you. The next thing you do is getting the paraglider, that allows you to glide towards these points of interest. This is what the game openly encourages you to do. unfortunately this premise is constantly contradicted. You get to a tower you've seen from a distance - possibly after about 30 minutes of wandering and climbing - only to find out you can't swim across the very last puddle of mud before the tower. You make your way to a shrine, only to find out it's surrounded by thorns and you've been travelling all the way there for nothing. In this free roaming game there's far too much you can't do from the beginning, and it's disheartening to find out that in this massive region there's just 2 or 3 places that you can actually go to. There's also situations where you're arbitrarily denied to glide towards certain areas (the lost woods, the divine beasts aiming at hyrule castle) and just taken back to where you first jumped from, very rough game design choice for a 2017 AAA game that ends up getting 97 on metacritic. BOTW is a game that systematically and constantly frustrates the gamer's curiosity and efforts, that regularly tells "NO" to the player.

    Do you want to pick up the sword? NO, your ridiculously small pockets are full already. Do you want to put a pin on a shrine you've spotted from hyrule castle? NO, you can't. (god knows why). Do you want to drop bananas on the floor, as you're crouching in this dungeon where you're required to crouch and leave bananas on the floor? NO, you have to stand before dropping the bananas, otherwise they'll disappear because hey, it's Zelda and everyone's going to say it's great anyway. Wow.

    Combat's, well, useless. There's obviously an issue with weapon's durability - wether you're wielding a tree branch or a royal claymore, you'll soon see a "your weapon is about to break" message, that paired with the "you can't carry any more weapons" message will - should, at least - make you wonder if nintendo wanted you to have any fun at all playing this game. But combat's also useless because there's no real gain to be had from winning, no rupee drops, just a bunch of ingredients - always the same, over and over again - that you can then use to brew elixirs, which again won't change anything for more than a few minutes.

    I could go on but i'll stop here. Aside from a couple well designed shrines and a few potentially exciting moments (based on wild plagiarisms from shadow of the colossus anyway) i didn't have a single minute of fun in the 50 hours i've spent on hyrule. Instead, i was constantly denied entertainment by incredibly dull game design choices, the most awkward controls and menus i've seen in years and ridiculous inventory limitations, that seemed genuinely designed to irritate the player. Well, mission accomplished Nintendo!

    Don't give this game a 10 just because everyone else did! Think with your heads - BOTW is a big mess of a game!    … Expand

    this is one of the best games on the console and the first Zelda game i have ever played

    it looks great, the gameplay is fun, the puzzles interesting, and exploring is something that felt great to do even after 50 hours, the story is fascinating and the side missing are interesting to do

    this is one of the best Games on the Nintendo Switch and a must play imo

    Always been a fan of the zelda series and been holding my breath for an amazing entry into the series for a long long time. Let face it Skyward and Twilight are ok, but not as amazing as WW or Ocarina. Finally I think both of those have been surpassed, me and my two sons played this to death for a bout three years. no

    Fighting 'Last of us' in my mind for the best game ever made.

    Best Game of its decade and arguably the best game of this century. It's not perfect but it's the closest I've seen in my life. If you're wondering whether or not to buy this game, then I would definitely recommend buying it. The only problem is the story, mainly due to the fact that it doesn't really have much of it

    The defining game of the switch. Filled to the brim with content with incredibly fun and creative gameplay. Revolutionizes the idea of open world games with the fact you can go anywhere with little to no restrictions. THE game of 2017. Period.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild is a really good Zelda game. The game's map is incredibly large and also incredibly extensive. The cutscenes in BOTW are also pretty good. However, I find the passages between the memories and also between the villages, shrines etc. far too lengthy. The music in BOTW is also good. (Fun fact: if you speed up the music from the Hylian field, you can hear Zelda's Lullaby). Unfortunately, I miss the story too much, which is what games like Ocarina of Time or Skyward Sword have. I give this game a rating of 8 out of 10 because the game feels incredibly free. You can cook what you want, you can carry the weapons you want, you can be where you want, this game defines freedom. I don't give it a 10 out of 10 because I just miss the story too much and the music isn't the best music in the whole series either.… Expand

    This is probably the best zelda game of al time the world is big and beatiful with many secrets to be found there is also some minigames and small details like buying a house. The story is great and amazing and also dosen't force you to do the main story.

    This game is incredible. There's so much to do, so much to see, to explore.

    The gameplay is where it shines. Everything from exploration to combat is extensively flexible. The world is rich, no matter where you are there is a shrine or enemy camp or a tower or a labyrinth. But where the game play shines it lacks on lore. Sure there is story and it's not a bad story at all, but    This game is incredible. There's so much to do, so much to see, to explore.

    Sure there is story and it's not a bad story at all, but maybe by the open ended nature of how the story is told (and how important pieces are hidden on diaries) it is not as impacting as other Zelda titles.

    Maybe that's done on purpose since Breath of the Wild is as unusual game.
    This is the first time a Zelda game has a direct sequel (which by the time I write this is not out yet) so maybe it will provide more context just like Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity did for the character of princess Zelda.

    But in 2017 where I first played it and the other tie-in games were not announced yet, it felt incomplete (again, maybe on purpose).

    The divine beast are kinda disappointing too, but the massive amount of shrines make up for the challenges expected on a Zelda game.

    Other than theses setbacks the game is amazing.    … Expand

    I started playing this game back in 2019. I'm still playing it today during my free time. I know I'm a bit late to write a review but it's better to be late than never, especially since botw 2 is coming soon. This game is just amazing. Of course it has its own share of shortcomings but it is nevertheless a 10/10 MASTAHPIECE. Can't wait for the sequel!

    There's a lot to love about this game from the visuals to the wonderful music and sound effects and the true open world sense you get that you can go anywhere at any time if you want. Point is there's so much I do love about this game but I'd be remiss if I didn't mention some of the things that I didn't like. For starters and this is more of a personal thing but the game is really big.There's a lot to love about this game from the visuals to the wonderful music and sound effects and the true open world sense you get that you can go anywhere at any time if you want. Point is there's so much I do love about this game but I'd be remiss if I didn't mention some of the things that I didn't like. For starters and this is more of a personal thing but the game is really big. What I mean is that the game can feel really overwhelming with how many places you can go and with how many of those korak seeds there are all over the place. I like to try to do everything in a game when I play and this game I just couldn't because of how many there are. For example there's a lot of side quests that I didn't finish and it's not just because there's so many of them. But many of them were just not that interesting or rewarding enough for me to really want to finish. Another thing that I wasn't a fan of was how repetitive the shrines could be at times. Mostly in the visuals department because they all have the same look and I get why that is but a little more variety in how they look would have been nice. And I get that it's kind of just a Zelda thing to not have a lot of voiced dialogue and I can except that for the older titles but in the future I would like to see more voiced dialogue from NPCs but I guess that's just cause I did like a lot of the characters and would like to hear more from them. One thing I thought I wouldn't like but ended up enjoying was the weapon derogation system. As it made the early game more challenging and really if non of the weapons broke the game would be way to easy. Difficulty is something the game does well in the beginning but due to the open world nature of the game it's kinda hard to gage a players skill if they can go anywhere so the level of difficulty is kinda all over the place until the end game where everything just becomes real easy. Again I really enjoyed the game I think it's a great game and something that most people should give a try if they have a switch. I just wish some of the fat could be trimmed off the game to make it a bit more concise. Granted this game is no where near the same level of repetitive slog as an Ubisoft open world game tens to be so there's that at least.… Expand

    Simply one of the best games i've ever played in my entire life. I really recommend to buy Switch or to borrow one from your friend just to play The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the wild! I don't want to say more, just play it, you won't regret anyway.

    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]
