    The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, es uno de los juegos más brutales que he jugado! Mundo abrieron con toda propiedad y además con el sistema de dinámicas y físicas más interesantes y desarrollado que he visto. Una rejugabilidad muy buena pero haberle agregado unos mino juegos lo habría convertido en algo básicamente perfecto en el género....

    El mejor videojuego de la historia. Este juego es un antes y un después en la industria del videojuego, es una clase magistral de cómo hacer un videojuego de mundo abierto, la libertad de este juego no tiene límites, te permite explorar cada rincón de Hyrule, las físicas del juego son de otro planeta, justamente es muy hueno

    Breath of the Wild was hands down the best game I have ever played. The story, the quests, the open world, the graphics, the score, everything was stunning. The level of difficulty was also very well balanced. I didn't pick it up and play it until spring 2019, and I am very glad that I did. The Ocarina of Time has finally been surpassed.

    If i had ever played a perfect game, it would've been Zelda Breath Of The Wild. The world is a vast, sprawling open world, teeming with life and enemies to kill. You have your usual Zelda towns: Gerudo, Kakariko, Hateno and More. There are 4 dungeound, or Divine Beasts. Most are fairly easy, with an exception for Vah Naboris, whhich kade me come back kager on in my playthrough. The game also includes Ganon, the Master Sword and Memories, whoch are my favourite things to collect, and each provide an insight into the world 100 years ago. As for the story, it can mostly be found in the memories and is very minimal anyway. However, Zelda BOTW is almost perfect in every way.

    I guess the score on this game really depends on 2 things; whether you like completing simple puzzles or not, and whether you enjoy exploring rather empty map or not.

I didn't enjoy the shrine puzzles or Korok seed puzzles all over the map, if you don't then there's nothing to look for out in the map, so while I love exploring the world in most open world games, exploring post apocalyptic Hyrule really felt empty and almost meaningless.
    Also, fighting enemies was really fun at first but it became meaningless as well in the last half of the game. This game has no exp or level system, so you make Link stronger by collecting better weapons and armors/clothes. Since the weapon breaks constantly and there's no way to repair it, constantly updating your weapon through combat is really fun, it takes part in making the player feel that they are progressing. However about half way past the game I've collected good weapons, and I've already learned what kind of weapons the enemies have, and at this point I realized there's nothing I can gain from beating the enemies, so I just run past them. There's a lot of ways you can use environments to fight enemies and that's one of the things people love about this game, but what's the point if you aren't earning anything from them?
    So for me, most of the shrines and Korok puzzles were boring(and I started to wish the Korok won't be there when I lift the damn rocks, and they are always there), the combat was meaningless, and it meant there's nothing out there in this world that's interesting except for some rare occasions and encounters. Most of the side quests were boring too, I tend to not mind about having to do fetch quests in most games, but in this game I never really enjoyed it.

    The map and the world build on it is really great, some people will find it worth walking around even if it is empty. But if that's the case the Korok puzzles will get rather annoying. It becomes a distraction rather than an interesting interaction.
    In addition to the great world map, being able to climb almost anything and glide from heights is really epic and gives a whole lot of freedom to exploration.

    Overall Nintendo has made a great playground but failed to provide enough content worth paying attention in that play ground, at least for me.

Nintendo, has not tried to craft an open world game in 30 years, and when they do, the rest of the industry got schooled on how to do it properly. The only way to describe this game, is pure excellence. No, it's more than that....this game ruined a lot of other games for me, because it does what video games are meant to do, it was fun. Beyond fun, I got lost, engrossed in this world that Nintendo crafted. If the durability system was better, this game would ha r perfect. Expand

Music: the music is very nice and calming, it really fits with the whole atmosphere of the game Story: it gives you a sense of progression, and freedom. You could do whatever you want, however you wanna do it. Overall: I could see myself enjoying this game for years, with so many side quests, interesting characters, new swords, and armor to find. I could never see myself getting bored of this game . I’ll give it a 11/10

All I knew was that the game looked breathtaking and ambitious; and with an exciting and revolutionary console, I was eager to give it a try.
    Needless to say, all of my fears were swept to the wayside just a few hours in. The world, soundtrack, gameplay, everything. I couldn't stop playing and quickly found myself addicted.
    I was taking hundreds of screenshots; I was exploring every inch of the world; I was doing it all with a smile on my face.
    Nintendo crafted a gem, and every detail was well thought out. You see in the little details that Nintendo cared about this game, they cared about the world and characters, and most importantly; they cared about us, the players. A perfect masterpiece

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. First of all this is the best Zelda game I have played in years .It takes open world exploration and survival and blends them with the zelda formula for an awesome experience.

    My only complaints are number 1 a confusing interface that will take you time to get used to.Like cooking for instance , why is it not an option when by a fire? You have to go into the menu and then select up to 5 ingredients and then throw them into a pan. Which makes sense but it should explain it all better.Then theres the weapons breaking which is ok its just that its rare for one to last more than a battle or two.Then theres is random non sense like getting killed by lightning ? Im all for a higher difficulty its just sometimes some of the deaths feel extremely cheap and unbalanced.

    I think they are on the right track and i am honestly looking forward to a sequel.

    It is good and one of the best switch games , i just have to subtract a few points because like i said it is just a few things that could be touched up.

    It’s a beautiful game that does not incentivize playing it. Exploration for explorations sake will and does thrill some people, but after 60 hours and less than half of all the collectibles, I don’t ever need to play it again. Would love to see this open world treatment infused with meaningful character development and some sense of accomplishment.

    I spent nearly 300 hours with this game and all DLCs. And all has been said about this game already.

    So just to recap: It's typical good AAA game of our times, but poor Zelda game. Period. Imagine "Link to the past" overworld without dungeons moved to modern 3D aesthetics. That's exactly this game. Good exploration game, poor in terms of being Zelda game. "Forget all you know about

    "Forget all you know about Zelda game..." - I thought that was just marketing. Oh boy... No, they were just honest with us.

    And all these 10/10... Really? How can you give 10/10 score to a game that was intended to have mini map on gamepad, but eventually had this feature disabled on the release (remember 2014 wii u demo? Just compare). Meaning automatically that current BoTW cannot be perfect right now, because we have seen better "more perfectish" BoTW with minimap on youtube! Logic? Who cares.

    Right, "Big N" will sell anything with right marketing. In my opinion Zelda has gone simply in wrong direction. With BoTW, our good old Zelda just made transition to another polished corporate product without soul. That's prolly what modern consumer expects, but not necessarily Zelda fan. All what made this game so unique was lost with this release "like tears on the rain".

    7/10 is a real score here.

    Is there a story in it ? The story is optional, practically non-existent, and **** dialogues. The characters are empty, and the quests are more boring than fun.
    1/10

    - Combat
    At first, I found the generic type combat system quite fun. Due to the weapon durability at the beginning of the game, we need to change the weapon quite often, so we learn to use them all. After a few hours, it's just a pain to use a low power weapon, because the nice ones are broken.
    First few hours : "Nice, new enemy type"
    After 4-5 hours of game-play, you know all the different types of enemies (10 at most), and these enemies are the same until the end of the game (and even after).
    The combats are quite easy when you learn how to use your parade on each enemy, and some of them are scary at first, but after a few hours, you are almost invincible if you know that you are doing !
    3/10

    Design :
    What can i say ? It's amazing, beautiful colors, no lags, perfect. If you want a game just for the design and nothing else, it's the perfect game
    10/10

    Puzzles(shrines) :
    After Ocarina of time, i was expecting some good puzzle games. But no ! It's a "puzzle" with a huge room and 1 big enemy, or an easy dungeon when you just need to use the skills you found in the game, that last 10 min max. Only a few of them were fun (2 shrines to do at the same times, with for info on each one to unlock the other)
    2/10

    What to do in the game ?
    - 4 dungeon with bosses + end boss, with almost no scenario
    - 100+ useless or easy shrine
    - a few hundreds korok seeds to find
    So, except the 4 "scenario" dungeon", that are optional and without real story, the only thing you do in the game is trying to find the small easy shrines (puzzles), and trying to find completely useless leaf under each rock etc. If you only want a nice looking game, it's perfect, but it's an over rated game with a terrible story and nothing to do except doing cartography

As you can tell by my score, I was very disappointed, as I bought this game wishing to give it a 10/10 score, though was met with numerous disappointments and clear faults that led me to think otherwise.
    First of all, the story is practically non-existent. Being a non-linear game, you're given a dump of exposition at the start to set it all up and then you're good to go. There are some sprinkled bits of story here and there but never a proper narrative. The characters have no development whatsoever, making all of them feel very bland and generic (apart from, maybe, Zelda). Both the story and characters are designed this way due to the story being non-linear, but that is such a half-assed excuse for having such a **** narrative structure.
    The graphics look amazing and are right up my alley, definitely the main reason why I bought the game and was not disappointed. Performance was OK, though fps feels insufficient sometimes, not an expert in that area though. Music is sub-par and gets boring very fast.
    Mechanically, this game feels very generic in terms of combat. It does improves upon certain "staple" mechanics for third person games, but you don't really need to know them to beat the game. In fact, I played most of the game without knowing they existed. Also, durability system is dumb and irritating, having a weapon break (pretty much) out of nowhere totally pulls me out of combat immersion every time, and it feels terrible.
    Difficulty-wise, it's very straight-forward as long as you know what your doing. Walking mindlessly will get you one-shotted, but following the (very unsubtle) directions the game gives you, you'll be all right. The dungeons are extremely easy, and the boss fights feels like it was made for 4-year-olds. Shrines can be harder, but don't feel related to the story in any way. It makes no sense to have the story-related dungeons to be easy and shrines to not be, shouldn't it be the other way around? Also, to top it all off, this game has 0 enemy variety, not even joking.
    Overall, if you are the kind of person that buys a 60 dollar game to wander around a shallow world doing shrines and being a cartographer, this is the game for you. I'm not that kind of person, so I'll pass.

Furthermore, you learn the game by just playing and interacting with the world or reading the tips on loading screens. No need for googling, unless you are bad at puzzle solving I guess. 10/10!

    For generations, open world games have been striving to create a world that's not only beautiful in it's graphical process, but beautiful in it's world building and nature interactions Breath of the Wild might be the first game to master it's own world and make something beautifully immersive and sincere. The quiet music works to give the player a feeling of loneliness and hopelessness.For generations, open world games have been striving to create a world that's not only beautiful in it's graphical process, but beautiful in it's world building and nature interactions Breath of the Wild might be the first game to master it's own world and make something beautifully immersive and sincere. The quiet music works to give the player a feeling of loneliness and hopelessness. There is a deep and dark feeling about the world that intrigues the player and urges them to keep going. The lack of invisible walls gives the player full control, and there is a shrine around every corner to draw the players to a new puzzle. The shrines are fantastic: being short and sweet, they are basic and to the point. The divine beasts, while somewhat underwhelming, are still a blast to explore. This game is so immersive, and the memories continue to give the players a story to look for throughout the vast world. Expand

    Now, to start off I'd like to say that this is a nice game which is enjoyed. However, it doesn't really feel like a Zelda game but more like a reskinned Elder scrolls feat Assasins creed.

    The story is bland, the broken weapon mechanics are boring, the controls are bad (and you can't remapp) and the temples are easy and repetitive. If you have never played a Zelda game but like open world

    As close to perfect as any Zelda game has come. Breath of the Wild is what open world games should be; a vast expanse in which your skill ceiling is the only limit, able to go anywhere and everywhere right from the outset, and packed to the brim with things to do and see and explore without feeling stale and empty like the likes of Skyrim.

Breath of the Wild is what open world games should be; a vast expanse in which your skill ceiling is the only limit, able to go anywhere and everywhere right from the outset, and packed to the brim with things to do and see and explore without feeling stale and empty like the likes of Skyrim. No moment in this game is boring, and the freedom the game affords you is limitless.

    I only have a few gripes about the game and they're minor. I wish that we had more actual dungeons in the same vein as the old Zeldas. As it is, we get 120 mini-dungeons that are just a sequence of puzzles and 5 main dungeons, the last of which is probably one of the coolest of any Zelda dungeon, though the other 4 don't feel as grand and expansive as the older dungeons. The lack of things to do after you've completed the main game and have done all the shrines and all the sidequests makes the world feel much smaller than it actually is once you know where everything is, and a New Game Plus mode wouldn't go amiss, or at least the ability to make a new game without having to make an entirely separate Switch profile. Whatever happened to the three save slots you get in the older games?

    In any case, I had an absolute blast with Breath of the Wild, being my first Zelda game since the ye olde days of Twilight Princess on the Gamecube, and now that I actually truly own my own Nintendo console, I'm hyped up for the sequel, which I'm willing to bet will earn the last point that its predecessor barely misses.

    Es un cambio que necesitaba la saga, distinto al fin. El juego se centra 100% en la exploración, la particularidad del mismo, además de dejarte toda la libertad que quieras, es que todas las misiones que haces, todo lo que haces es por tu propio interés, porque tú quieres ir a vez que hay encima de una montaña, o porque ves un desierto y decides visitarlo etc. Otra cosa muy importante es la atención al detalle del juego, cómo interactúa link con todo lo que ve y cómo afecta el entorno al mismo link.

    A 1000 cosas buenas que puedo decir del juego, así que mejor digo las malas. La duración de las armas me pareció insuficiente, además de que opino de que cierta arma y escudo deberían ser irromplibles. Los templos tochos no están a la altura, llegan a estarlo y ya me explotaría la cabeza (hay muchos santuarios, se entiende que no sean tan tochos, no lo digo como algo malo sino como algo que lo haría mejor aun).

    Y bueno hay mas cosillas por ahí que yo habría puesto de otra forma, pero entre que ha pasado tiempo y no me acuerdo y que tampoco voy a decir todas las cosas buenas pues lo dejo aquí.
    Le he puesto un 10 así que comprenderéis que esas cosas malas no quitan que el juego sea una obra maestra y sin duda de los mejores juegos que he jugado en mi vida.

    But i'll rate this game 9, because of the finale, horrible, after all the work that i've done to max Link, find all the memories, and beat all the 4 "bosses", the game just makes you beat Ganon, and then nothing happens, the game puts a star in your save state, and stop, you still need to save the princess.

The visuals are beautiful, the story is excellent, the controls are great, the difficulty is challenging and rewarding. And there is so much more. Lots of puzzles in the form of shrines are great ways to take a break from the fighting and the travelling, while also going towards making link stronger in your quest to beat Gannon. The paraglider is fantasic, and is a joy to use. I like the weapon system as well. This is contentious, considering the weapons you pick up and find are very easy to break. But i am fine with that, because it adds a new dimension to fighting enemies, in that if your weapon breaks, it now a puzzle on how to take on the enemy. There are some drawbacks such as tedious, time consuming traveling and some fps dips, but i can accept those because this game...is a masterpiece. And the dlc has fixed the long travels. I can't wait to explore the zelda series further. Expand

    Breath of the Wild is a fun game with an expansive world, nice armor system, some fun puzzles, and some touching story scenes. That said, people FAR overrate this game because of Zelda bias. Here's the bottom line: the game doesn't have much of a story. The few scenes you get are good, but they're way too few and far between.

    As for the expansive world, there just isn't a whole lot

Here's the bottom line: the game doesn't have much of a story. The few scenes you get are good, but they're way too few and far between.

    As for the expansive world, there just isn't a whole lot actually in it. Littering korok seeds and shrines all over the map isn't really content. Especially when a bunch of the shrines are either brain-dead easy and short, or there's no puzzle at all. The shrines become repetitive pretty quickly. They probably should have cut the number of shrines to a quarter of what they have and made each one longer and more thought out, but they tied them to the fast travel system, which was a mistake.

    The game really comes down to this: find Link's 13 memories, defeat the 4 divine beasts, then go defeat Ganon. That's it. It's very simple and straight-forward. I just can't give a game that's that shallow when you really look at it a higher score than a 7. It's a fun game to play for the most part, but fun to play alone can't make a game a 10/10. Like, it doesn't compare to other games like Horizon Zero Dawn, The Witcher 3, or the Last of Us, which are also fun games but have immersive story plots that surprise you and move you more than Breath of the Wild does. It's a very good Zelda game, but it makes me wonder if they should play with making more complex stories in Zelda games, because that's the big missing key of this game to me.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This game is mediocre, which is really sad because it got very good potential. I love Zelda games, but this, this isn’t really that good.

    Good:
    - Large open world
    - You can climb, and climb more or less anything, and easily get around. Except in dungeons/shrines, because that would be to easy.
    - I like the graphics, nothing spectacular, but it’s good.
    - Really nice weather system
    - Most information is easily available on the main HUD

    Meh:
    - The story is bland, but this is a Zelda game, so Link have to save the princess. Beyond that there really isn’t anything, or rather what there is, is a clear set of obstacles to prolong the game.

    Bad:
    - Some of the weather, like rain and thunderstorms becomes extremely frustrating. Rain stops you from climbing, and lightning can outright kill you, and sometimes you are stuck waiting out the weather. Not a good mechanic.
    - Everything is sooo slow, picking up a rock, climbing, even swinging weapons feels slow, especially when you have to cut grass to get crickets or the like.
    - Cooking, seriously Nintendo, WTF. So first I have to gather ingredients, then I have to find a cooking spot, get fire there. Then go to my inventory, select up to 5 things, cook them. Again with a slow animation. Meaning optimally it takes 15-20 seconds per item you cook, and you have to go to inventory every time. And it doesn’t save the recipes, you can see them on the item you cooked, but once that is consumed It’s gone. Seriously this literally made me not play the game for over a month, not fun in any shape or form.
    - Weapons break, fast, sometimes after 5-6 hits on enemies. Even legendary, ancient weapons just fall apart after hitting even low level enemies. Bows and shields too, and you can’t just buy new, you have to find it. This is not fun, and it just drains you, often ran from enemies, because they would cost me weapons to kill. Seriously not funny. If they broke after 20-30 hits, then maybe, but breaking 7-8 weapons during a long fight gets tedious.
    - Inventory space is limited, it can be expanded by finding seeds, there is 900 of them, but you max. inventory after 441. But still, for most of the game you are maybe able to carry 10 weapons, and you need to carry a couple of specific weapons.
    - The menus, and handling of menus is mind boggling, whoever came up with this, is probably praising Morrowinds inventory system, and menus.
    - Everything is the same, yeah the landscape. Changes a little, but there are 5-6 different monsters effctively. There are a lot of shrines (mini dungeons) and they are basically identical. Same walls, same everything except the physics puzzles, or combat.
    - Very little direction in the beginning. I found the game quite frustrating the first hours after getting to the two first villages. Tried wandering in random directions, and were killed hard by everything, until ai finally walked in the right direction.

    This was a lot of complaining, but I do like to play it, but it’s not perfect, it has many many flaws.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I want to make this clear to whoever is reading this review right now. This game is not perfect, but that’s ok because no game will ever be. What this game has accomplished is simply amazing. Nintendo finally took a shot at an open world game, with the genre being as popular as it is, and blew us away with their first go. (Spoilers from here on out)

    PROS- Traveling throughout the world in Breath of the Wild (BOTW) is the most fantastic part of the game. You have so many options as you are traveling. You can surf down massive cliffs and snow mountains for a blistering way to get to places. Climb up mountains anywhere to get a good view on the landscape, plan where to go next and paraglide over their. If you want to get to an area quickly you can take a horse, or if you completed the DLC a motorcycle. If your in the desert you can use a seal to take you across it quickly. This game provides options when traveling throughout the world witch plays in part why it’s so fun to explore. The other reason this game is so enticing is their is something around every corner. Their are 4 divine beast, 120 shrines, 900 korok seeds, and many side quest and mini games. So while the world is massive their is always something to see or do. The world is most enjoyed when you take your time with the game. Both me and one of my friend got the game around the same time as each other my friend tried to collect everything in the game before beating Calamity Ganon, including all 900 korok seeds. By the end of the game he had put just about 300 hours in to it. He was completely burned out and hated the game for it. This is not the game where completing it 100% completion will be fun in a short period of time. I have had the game for about 1.5 years now and still play it because I don’t do the little at at once. I beat the game a couple months after I got it and completed all the main stuff along with it like, freed all dive beast, got the master sword, found all the memories, and beat the DLC. After I defeated Ganon I still wanted to explore the world and see what I could find. I still only have about 250 korok seeds and finally finished all the shrines but I’m till even to this day having fun exploring the world. I constantly come back and find new things. I stumbled upon a beautiful dragon for the first time and was blown away. Found full towns after beating Ganon and still have fun finding korok’s around every corner. Some of the best moments I have ever had in gaming are from stumbling into stuff naturally from this game. BOTW does this better than any game I have played yet.

    Cons- It’s interesting because what this game achieves so well make the shortcomings seem like more of a misstep than it normally would be. The voice acting in many ways is just average, which really surprised me since this is the first time there are voice actors in a Zelda game that both Nintendo and the voice actors didn’t go for perfection. In many of the cutscene it seemed like they were took only a couple times. The Divine Beast are very interesting and unique concept the first couple you do but later on I realized they were extremely short and boring compared to past Zelda dungeons. They also have exactly the same boring interior look for each dungeon and shrine. Again, previous Zelda dungeons where much more creative and interesting than these and if one thing gets changed in the sequel I hope it would be this. Most of the other problem I had were small. The music in this game is perfect for what the game is supposed to be, but for a more personal problem I miss the bombastic Hyrule Field music or the optimistic Great Sea theme. Again this is not a problem for the game but a personal one. The durability system is almost great for the ability to keep you on your toes at all times but I would like if you got a couple more hits out of each weapon, so instead that would make players be more aggressive instead of being cautious about breaking weapons. The menu system works ok but I still often find myself stumbling around in it. Also I didn’t like how you can only hold 5 items at a time; I would like to be able to hold more.

    In conclusion, this game is fantastic and I would recommend it to anyone who has any interest in it. This is probably my favorite game of all time, mainly because I have had so many memorable moments from it and I can call my adventures in the game my own. This game got me back into video games and I really appreciate it for that. Yes, the game does have flaws just like every other game ever will, but here hoping the recently announced direct sequel can fix some of those problem, retain what’s great about this game, and come up with creative ideas and story to make it unique from its predecessor.

    Absolutely stunning and a joy to play. Probably one of the best switch games out as of right now, it completely changed the game that we know as Zelda forever. Hundreds of hours worth of content that you'll enjoy every second of (not to mention the DLC)! The open world environment lets players decide their own adventure, and the music and art style truly immerse the player in the game. AndAbsolutely stunning and a joy to play.

And the fun doesn't stop at home, the switch allows you to bring the kingdom of Hyrule and all the Zelda characters along with you, so you don't miss a second of fun! The shrines and divine beasts are an important part of the game, as they serve a replacement to our beloved dungeons. Thank Hylia they are equally as good. One of my favorite aspects of this game is the easter eggs, for example, characters and monsters that made it in Breath of the Wild from other games in the franchise. Anyways, that just about wraps up my review of this great game, 10/10...! シ Expand

    Overall a great and highly thought out game. However, it lacks some of the soul that make previous Zelda games so amazing. The size of the map is great, however there isn’t much initiative to explore as it starts to become empty and repetitive. There’s no variety in enemies or dungeons either. And some of the comedy in the game is not needed and detracts from the experience. Having saidOverall a great and highly thought out game.

    It was the most amazing adventure I've ever done in gameplays. But when Link got stronger(full stamina, 10~13 hearts), battle went little boring.

    Incredible game, visually stunning, the landscapes are terrific, any zelda fan would love this game, it certaintly is different from previous entries but is does a good job , only complain is the lack of variety in the enemies, most of them are just the same model, with just different colours as well as the lack of difficulty in the game.

    Easily one of the greatest games of all time. Breath of the Wild sets a new standard for open world games. This title is a must play for Zelda fans and non Zelda fans alike.
    The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild is a masterpiece.

    Deserves to be a metacritic must play, doesn't deserve a 10/10 but is still one of, if not the best, game on switch

    With amazing visuals and graphics and a huge open world to explore this game is one of the very best if not the best game I have ever played. There are so many things to do and to find and it never seems to take an end and still makes so much fun. I have spend hundreds of hours playing it. It´s just amazing and great and in every way perfect to the very detail.

    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]
