    The Legend of Zelda, Breath of the Wild is my favorite game of all time, and that's coming from a non-zelda fan! The game is so much fun to explore, and I have so many memories with this beautiful game. 10/10, I can't wait for tears of the kingdom!

    Um dos melhores jogos que já joguei na vida.
    Único ponto a ser melhorado é a dificuldade dos Boss, por ser um mundo aberto onde pode enfrentar eles em qualquer ordem, deixa um pouco menos desafiador.

    Decent enough game but I don't get the hype.
    Everyone tells me about how ground breaking it is but there wasn't anything there I hadn't seen before. I guess a slick coat of Nintendo is all it takes.

    Reciclado de animaciones, ropa, armas, misma historia de los buenos son muy buenos y los malos muy malos, historia y personajes muy planos que es obvio porque al final es para todos los públicos y solo cambian cuatro mecánicas, el resto es lo mismo que cualquier mundo abierto, atalayas, campamentos enemigos, tesoros, bosses por zona, vamos como si jugará un far cry, hace unos años sería un boom, hoy es un juego de mundo abierto más, pero como es Zelda y Nintendo pues...

    Este juego ha sido uno de los escasísimos juegos capaces de desbancar a OoT de mejor experiencia de la historia, de haber contado con conceptos clásicos de la saga como mazmorras o música memorable. La sensación de aventura es total, con infinidad de situaciones y retos, como ningún otro juego ha logrado.

    Absolutely unplayable on the switch. Game has tons of bugs ans crashes randomly. Also the game looks like a ps2 game. It's 2023 and we are playing 2 generations behind??? What are we doing here! This game is basically a bugged DLC. Unnacceptable.

    Este se trata de, posiblemente, el mejor mundo abierto de la historia.

    La exploración es lo que los jugadores QUEREMOS hacer en este juego, porque presenta un mundo interesante a la vez que lleno de lugares interesantes, personajes, mazmorras (los aquí llamados "Santuarios"), y cosas por hacer. La historia no es nada del otro mundo y en ocasiones puede confundir, a la vez que    Este se trata de, posiblemente, el mejor mundo abierto de la historia.

    Las habilidades que puede hacer Link son muy interesantes y permiten hacer cosas increíbles, pasando de derrotar enemigos a base de bombas, a recorrer el mapa entero usando un árbol, o descubrir algún cofre enterrado en la arena de alguna playa.

    A pesar de salir en WII U y Nintendo Switch, el juego se ve perfecto, y las caídas de FPS no son tan molestas como se espera.

    The combat is superb. While I had a little issue with the durability system, I did like how it forced you to change styles and play differently. There are so many fun ways to approach combat that other games only have a fraction of. The four dungeons are kind of boring and generic and the final boss is painfully easy. The voice actors to come across as robotic which does suck me out of the game some. Those are the only problems I have with the game, everything else is near perfect.    … Expand

For example, a player can go up against a strong enemy and get good rewards for it, or they could fight low level enemies and get other, less valuable rewards.Breath of the Wild is an incredible game that encourages creativity in its large open world with diverse landscapes.

For example, a player can go up against a strong enemy and get good rewards for it, or they could fight low level enemies and get other, less valuable rewards. While this is a great game, it is not without its flaws. The game has a lack of guidance, which can be discouraging for some players. It also has a weapon breaking system which, while it encourages creativity, it also can take away strong weapons that the player has grown attached to. The game also lacks a deep story, it gives a background to the game and a vague description of the events that unfolded before the game and is built upon very little, if not at all. Certain areas can also have poor performance, but this is limited to only a couple areas.

    Pros:
    - Fun combat
    - Large filled open world
    - Good risk-reward

    Very disappointing step back from ocarina of time and twilight princess. Moving music, memorable characters, unique mechanics?

There's no charming exposition to the startVery disappointing step back from ocarina of time and twilight princess. Moving music, memorable characters, unique mechanics? You'll find none of that here, and they even managed to duck up the story. There's no journey or grand reveal, it's a survival sandbox with a simple linear goal in a way more akin to very early arcadey iterations before. There's no charming exposition to the start of this one, you simply wake up and are introduced to a post apocalyptic world and the main boss. A main boss that has been stripped of any personality and can be beaten without even needing the master sword. There's charming wandering NPCs but no memorable named NPCs, just randoms with samey models and mannerisms.

    The open world gets old fast when you realize each zone is filled with the same activity.

    >Find a rock, put it in the circle, get a seed.
    >Find a shrine, put a ball in a hole, get a spirit orb.
    >Find ingredients, put them in a pot, get food.

    All the charm of every zone is robbed from these repetitive tasks that make up every reward and every reveal. Find a secret area? You get a ball in a hole puzzle shrine. Climb a difficult mountain? You get to pick up a rock and get a seed. Why do we need to do this? Well the answer is that 4 orbs translate to either one heart or stamina bar, which is basically gating survivability. At least it would be if you couldn't simply get food that gives you 20+ boosted hearts which TRIVIALIZES these rewards. I'd rather spend my time looking for big radishes to make 20+ boosted heart meals that do another **** golf puzzle ever again. It gets old after the twentieth time ffs.

    Now the final nail in the coffin for me was the horrible bosses and dungeons. The water dungeon and water boss was a **** joke. It was literally one room with three puzzles, and a slow predictable boss that I basically stunlocked by shooting it's eye. It was pathetic. The worst Zelda dungeon I've ever played. The scene of this giant power rangers elephant statue somehow swimming under the dam and through the river half is size was also pathetic. Such a downgrade it's a disgrace. And it didn't get much better from there. The other four bosses and dungeons aren't much better. There's also a whole system involving taking pictures and cataloging everything from plants to creatures, but who the **** wants to do that? The gameplay was fine but I can't get over the pitfalls. All in all, very disappointing.    … Expand

    Zelda used to be quality, fun games with an interesting world and not a big open space of mostly Empty plain or mountain which could easily be left out and not subtract anything of the game, in fact, it would add to leave out 70% of this empty world since it would mean less empty space to traverse to find something interesting.

    The world had fun lore and story that made you follow it which BotW has almost nothing of and the only reason I excuse the empty, lifeless world is the lore of it being a 100 years after basically Armageddon.

    It was fun to engage with enemies and try different items to play around with them but weapons breaking all the time isn't fun at all. It only discourages to fight because you will only loose the weapons you have since most chest are locked behind "kill all enemies in the vicinity" flags and at best you get something worse that again, breaks after a few uses. If you at least had weak base equipment with the only special trait to be unbreakable and infinite use to fall back once you run out it would make this acceptable. Heck, not even the legendary Master Sword can't be used all the time since it needs recharging every so often.

    Zelda used to encourage exploration to find cool stuff but that doesn't apply anymore because at best you find more stuff that just breaks so you would not have any feeling of finding something precious, it's just throw away trash you could substitute whenever.

    Dungeons were fun and "awe-inspiring" and now all we get are puzzle rooms and mini-dungeons with annoying motion controls at time. You can't even call the divine beast a dungeon since they are so small and have little unique look to it.    … Expand

The weapons and equipment are very fun to use, and there are so many places to explore and people to speak speak with. The game is very lively and the art style is fantastic. The only issue I have is that the shrines and koroks are very repetitive. I think they could be more creative, and instead of many little puzzles, I believe bigger, more dungeon-like areas. Other than that, the game is amazing. The combat is some of the best I have ever seen in a video game before, and it feels very rewarding to fight bigger and better monsters and receive a multitude of different weapons to do it with. The bosses and divine beasts are very creative, and the vast amount of armor and outfits are amazing, not only because of the armor aspect, but they look beautiful and very detailed. Finally, the story, which isn't a huge part of the game, and is sort of light, if you look into it, it is very beautifully put together and fits perfectly with Link losing his memories. I just hope that Nintendo can fit the same experience they gave us with this game into Tears of the Kingdom. Keep it up, Nintendo.… Expand

    FULL REVIEW:
    The Legend of Zelda is one of Nintendo’s biggest and most successful franchises, second behind Mario. Shigeru Miyamoto may have been behind the beginning stages of both franchises. However, he helped to make sure they were different from each other before handing the Zelda franchise over to Eiji Aonuma. Where 1986’s Super Mario Bros. was a side-scrolling platformer, 1986’s The Legend of Zelda included an action-adventure overworld. Zelda II may have included side-scrolling while battling enemies, but the overworld became a mainstay, even to this day. The Zelda franchise has tried many other gameplay and narrative styles across multiple consoles and handhelds. However, everyone, including Nintendo, knew there was something special about The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild upon its announcement in 2013.

    Upon entering the game’s world, players discover the grim reality Link lives in: they’ve lost. Link, Zelda, and the four Divine Beast Champions fell to the all-powerful Calamity Ganon, causing Link to fall asleep for one hundred years. As Link discovers throughout the game’s captured memories, players learn more about the Champions and the dynamic between the heroic group before Hyrule fell to Ganon. Zelda fails to unlock her sealing abilities in time despite her father, King Rhoam’s, best efforts to help her. The Champions fail to overpower Calamity Ganon with their Divine Beasts. Hyrule fails to understand the uncontrollable power of Sheikah technology. Everyone fails and loses before the game’s narrative begins, making Link’s destined quest to defeat Ganon all the more urgent and emotional.

    Luckily for Link and players, Hyrule retains many tribes and villages after the fall of King Rhoam and Hyrule Castle. Hyrule also offers dozens of shrines awakened by Sheikah technology for Link and players to explore. The amount of quests, puzzles, and locations to discover makes players feel small amidst a living world. Curiosity often overpowers people, making exploration in an open world like Breath of the Wild a true adventure, regardless of the hundreds of quests offered to players. Players can even move straight onto fighting Ganon, bolstering the game’s freedom of choice. Nothing is required of the player to complete the game other than beating Calamity Ganon, making Breath of the Wild the game it is today.

    As the world ventures away from the game, many of today’s games, like Assassin’s Creed: Valhalla, Genshin Impact, and Immortals Fenyx Rising, try their hardest to replicate its success. However, the combination of Breath of the Wild’s exploratory adventure and the world Link and players reside in creates a once-in-a-generation experience no other game achieves. It is the quintessential open-world title–a near-perfect video game worth the four-year wait between 2013 and 2017. From 1986 to now, the Zelda franchise has been the yin to the Mario franchise’s yang. The ladder offers a more casual and status-quo adventure, and the former offers genre-bending experiences for those willing to take risks.    … Expand

    Ancak keşif hissi bir yerden sonra kayboluyor. Zira nereye gidersen git sonunda bulduğun içinde bulmaca çözeceğin bir tapınak oluyor.

Açık dünya tasarımı, istediğin zaman istediğin yere gitme özgürlüğü, keşfetme hissi (en azından ilk yarısında) şahane.

    Ancak keşif hissi bir yerden sonra kayboluyor. Zira nereye gidersen git sonunda bulduğun içinde bulmaca çözeceğin bir tapınak oluyor. Ben bulmacalardan nefret ettiğim için de kendimi ödüllendirilmiş hissetmiyorum. Elden Ring'de keşfin sonunda şahane bir boss savaşı bulurdun, tamamen farklı görünen yerlerden geçerdin. Zelda bunu bana veremedi, bulmaca sevenler mest olmuştur tabii. Açık dünyadaki boss'ların çeşitliliği ise çok az.

    E açık dünyası keşfedilecek hikayelerle de dolu değil. Yan görevler var ama Ubisoft oyunları bile bin kat daha kalitelidir. Mesela Skyrim'de keşfin sonunda ilgi çekici bir hikaye ile ödüllendirilirsin. Ya da RDR2'de hiç karşılaşmadığın yeni bir şey görürsün. Bunda yok.

    Keşfin sonunda kılıç, kalkan vesaire buluyorsun ama bu da tatmin edici değil. Zira her silah (birisi hariç) önünde sonunda kırılıyor. E iki düşman kestikten sonra kırılacak silah için onca ceremeye değmiyor. Elden Ring bunda da çok önde.

    E combat desen bence iyi değil. Heyecandan uzak. Düşmandan kan çıkmaması mıdır nedir, tatmin etmeyen bir şeyler olduğu kesin. Oysa silah çeşitliliği, buna göre oynanıştaki çeşitlilik, düşmanların darbeye tepkisi gayet yerinde. Hiç beklemediğim bir şekilde parry mekaniği var ama hiç kullanmadım.

    Bir de ben bu oyunun çakmasını daha önce oynadım, Immortal Fenyx Rising. Ubisoft yapmıştı. Çok benzer. Bu yüzden bana yeni bir şey oynuyormuşum gibi gelmedi. Bu, oyunun suçu değil tabii.

    Oyunun fizik motoru bir harika ama hakkını vereyim. Acaba şunu yapabilir miyim dediğim her şeyi yaptım neredeyse. Her eşyanın oyunun dünyasında fiziksel bir karşılığı var ve her şeyle etkileşime geçiyorlar. Epey beğendim. İlk defa bir oyunda yediği darbeden dolayı, ölmese bile elindeki silahı savrulan düşman görüyorum. Gidip tekrar almaya çalışıyor falan.

    Bazı yerleri internetsiz geçmek imkansız. Özellikle divine beast görevlerindeki bulmacalı bölümler bana gereksiz karışık geldi.

    Craft sistemi, yemek ve iksir yapma işi inanılmaz detaylı. Muhtemelen yüzlerce ürün vardır sonunda elde edeceğiniz. Kombinasyonlar sınırsız gibi. Ama kötü haber, ben craft işini de çok sevmem. İşimi görecek kadar yaptım. Elden Ring'de hiç yapmamıştım mesela.

    Neticede, genel toplamda beğendiğim ama delisi olmadığım bir oyun oldu. Oyunlarda keşfe bayılırım, girmediğim yer kalmaz ama bunda sonunda elde ettiğim şeyler beni tatmin etmedi. E oyun da temelde keşif oyunu olunca beklediğim kadar beğenmedim. Yine de çok sevenin neden çok sevdiğini anlayabiliyorum. Temel çok sağlam. Biraz abartı yorum yapacak olursam, Elden Ring aynı oyunun üstüne Dark Souls skini geçirince başyapıt oluyor mesela.    … Expand

    Giving this thing anything less than a stellar rating is quite controversial but nevertheless, I need to be honest. 90% of the game is phenomenal. The other 10% is detrimental enough for my own enjoyment that it brings the entire game down in my book.

Starting off with all    Giving this thing anything less than a stellar rating is quite controversial but nevertheless, I need to be honest. 90% of the game is phenomenal. The other 10% is detrimental enough for my own enjoyment that it brings the entire game down in my book.

    First, the great. The open world aspect lends itself well to the franchise and was a fresh take on the formula. Starting off with all your necessary tools and learning how to use them promotes creativity for problem solving unlike anything I've ever seen in a game. The exploration has scale and depth I truly wasn't expecting. The survival elements to the game were very interesting and was mostly executed well.

    Next, the negatives. This boils down to really just one: weapon durability. The constant and pervasive anxiety I had while fending off enemies, wondering if I'll be able to defend myself in any moment decentivized me from exploring further or engaging in combat. This was a huge detriment to me as a part of the combat is getting creative and problem solving. When I was constantly going into battles and burning through literally all of my weapons and still having enemies left, I ended up needing to run away with no weapons left and nothing to show for my efforts. If the game had provided some ways to repair some weapons or increase durability just by a bit, things could've been different.

    Exploring new locations, gaining new skills and equipment, meeting new people all lost its vigor when I simply just didn't want to explore anymore due to the stress this aspect brought. Even a game as brutal as Dark Souls manages to keep weapon durability reasonable and repair options accessible. BOTW did neither and created a rather stressful and frustrating experience. It's a shame too because besides that issue, the game is phenomenal in every possible way. I just wished they would've made that aspect more player-friendly so I could enjoy the experience more.

    While the game has deserved the praise it has received, I haven't returned to the game after about 20 hours. I just stopped and didn't want to return to the world that did not provide the tools I needed from the beginning.    … Expand

    Amazing Game, introduced me into the Zelda Franchise. Nice Story, never gets boring even if you finished the game, you can discover so many things in the beautiful designed open world. There are still people who discover new things even though the game is from 2017. One of my favourite Zelda games together with Skyward Sword. I love this game and I am so excited for Tears of the Kingdom.

    The game has such awesome potential but is massively let down by an overly complicated and frustrating combat system, with most of the monsters being able to kill you with one hit. It's such a shame they couldn't learn from ocarina of time, where you could lock on and stay locked on to enemies.

    Exploring the world was really fun. Plenty of secrets to find and places to see. Being a completionist it became a little less fun trying to locate the last shrine needle in a haystack. Not sure how your supposed to do that without looking it up. Thank goodness for the internet shrine maps

    Yet another nintendo game nostalgia baiting that has very little content and is full of time wasting mechanics like degrading equipment.

    The best Single player ive ever seen. Great Open world. More difficult than other switch games and better than every Play station game

    Enough has been said about the game! I just came to say +1 to how you need to play it, even if it is not your kind of game. If you have an open mindset you will surely enjoy it! For me it has the best open world experience of any game, it was the first time I would just roam around Hyrule and just enjoyed exploring every part of the map.

    Open world way too huge and repetitive for hours... meh! Shrine after shrine... meh! Dungeons/titans were really boring. Weapon "system" good Idea but after many broken swords and shields... meh! Story(telling) was really good.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. In 2023, this game is still amazing. It may not be the best Zelda game, but this is just awesome. If you like puzzles, action, tactic and a big adventure, this is still a very good game.
    The beginning of the game (the great plateau) is very good. It is the tutorial section of the game, but it feels like a mini game. Very good.
    The ending is a bit dissapointing, if you look at the other Zelda games.
    The adventure itself is also very good. You walk towards a specific goal, but you always find new things to do and enjoy. You can kill enemies with a lot of ways.
    The only things that are dissapointing are: the ending, the weaponbreaking system, the small variety of monsters and the same feeling in the dungeons and the shrines.
    For the rest is it a very good game.    … Expand

    I think Breath of the wild is a great game and a ok Zelda.

    Sadly Nintendo is going to follow the open world trend.

    Breath of the wild has bad dungeons, bad object(i mean the Leapfrog gadget) and doesn't feel like a zelda.

    It has an amazing exploration,amazing fighting and amazing crafting system.

    Las 150 horas que lo jugue me parecio un gran conservando lo mejor de la francia.
    Tiene demasiadas misiones secundarias lo cual hace que siempre haya que hacer y ni hablar de su historia principal que para mi ha sido de las mejores el hecho de poder visitar santuarios, derrotar a muchos enemigos y rescatar el reino de hyrule ha sido lo mejor.
    Espero con ansias la secuela!

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Overall I was left very disappointed with the ending and ended up just watching the true ending on YouTube.as I wasn’t grinding anymore. I was getting burnt out just to get the game done asap 70 hrs in befor I lost complete interest and gave up on it. Don’t get me wrong I really did enjoy most of it but, It can get very repetitive once you understand how the game play loop works and controls. it was a great game but not a perfect one.… Expand

    This game is overrated as hell, almost as bad as God of War: Ragnarok. People treat it like it was delivered by god himself and that not worshiping it would be a sin.

    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.
