    The best game I've ever played in my life
    I have gone back to the great plateau so many times. I'm trying to get my dad to play it, cos I think he will love it. Best game ever, but Mario Odyssey might tie with that

    Giving the Legend of Zelda a world this big, making it live and breathe then giving you absolute freedom to explore was exactly what the series needed.

The story is beautifully crafted to focus on Princess Zelda as you work to regain the memories you've lost over the last century while everyone you run into has heard tale of your exploits even you can't recall. Enemies are numerous and challenging and combat is punishing, versatile and rewarding. Dungeons and boss fights are no longer tied to a linear path of progression or ""Dungeon Specific Items," but rather wit and intuition to utilize the tools at your disposal as you analyze the latest block to your progression. Each character has a great backstory and each town carries its fair share of tasks to complete as the player pleases. The game never peaked and always impressed, ending at the Castle and leaving an impression as one of the greatest games ever created.… Expand

    This game lets us realize how simple we live.
    The wild asks questions about how to survive.
    Not only is it fun, but it brings tears to this little machine for over 120 hours.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The game has great graphics, good environment of the outside world. Great detail. Lots to discover...

    But falls short in boring boss design, being kinda short in comparison to others, where the only thing making this game long is only running to get to somewhere. Suffers from framerate issues that might be fixed in coming patches, the reward from temples is impactful... perhaps a bit too much. I feel like this game needs some level of mana instead of the long cooldown of the spirit powers that you can gain to balance the power you gain, because frankly the bosses become a bit too easy to defeat once you got the cooldowns up.

    Other than that it's a fun game but really wish bosses had more variety, which sinks the score.

    And the ending was big disappointment, this coming from someone who's expecting epic long boss fights and great ending credits. Maybe partly because I didn't unlock all memories but still kinda felt disappointing.    … Expand

    Genial juego de aveturas con un nivel de libertad increible que te permite resolver cualquier situacion de manera creativa en un vasto mundo abierto convirtiendose en un referenta para el genero, el guion es lo esperable para un juego de la saga y cumple sin tampoco destacar. La unica pega es que el sistema de combate puede resultar algo caotico

    Boring open world, bad controls, bad combat, hardly any story telling, hardly any voice acting and awful mini dungeons. The game doesnt care about your time. You run around in a boring and to find mini dungeons, which arent rewarding at all. Do not buy a switch for this.

    Breath of the Wild is the most important game Nintendo has made in a long time. It's the Switch's big launch title, and the Wii U's swan song, so they knew this game had to be good. I had some major concerns going into it, but I was still hoping to get a great game. Luckily, I got an amazing game.

Luckily, I got an amazing game.

    This game rule is a work of art. A beautiful art style, a vast, expansive open world with so many things to see and do, almost all of which is available to you right at the start of the game, a new combat system that's confident in it's own simplicity, and new mechanics like the paraglider, the ability to climb anything, and cooking. However, there are problems. The bosses aren't that good, and the temples they're in weren't very fun to go through. Also, the weapon degradation system, while is a nice idea that forces variety and creativity, isn't executed well, especially with the Master Sword breaking and having to wait to be able to use it again (seriously, who thought of that?). Lastly, the story is passable, at best. It's way too simple and relies too heavily on lore, something only Dark Souls can pull off.

    Overall, Breath of the Wild isn't the 10 everyone says it is. Does this make it overrated? Hell no. This game is incredible, and is probably still my new favourite in the series. I'd describe it as a flawed masterpiece. 9/10.    … Expand

    I am going to start by saying I love Zelda games! LTTP is my fav. I completed LBW as well and loved that game. I enjoyed Wind Waker as well. This game was a huge let down though. I was so looking forward to it that we even drove around the city trying to find a copy of it.

    This game does not deserve any praise, it is below average and unmemorable. It is a mash up of other games and does not do anything amazing that we have not seen before.

    Graphics:
    As this is a port from a next gen console the graphics look terrible. The frame rate sucks. Often freezing during the combat and in towns . The animation style is down to opinion but i didn't like it. A Black horse for example is just one shade of Black so makes it look extremely 2D.

    Sound:
    There is barely any music. The music they did use is okay but just makes the empty world feel truly empty.
    The voice acting just seems added in as a last thought as it is only used sparingly. It is terrible so maybe that was a good thing. Every time i heard Zelda speak (or should I say whine) i cringed.

    Story:
    What story? There are just a ton of cringe worthy flashbacks. A good game has a strong story that dictates the game. The game developers tried to pass this game off as "hey do what you want" as if that was a good thing but I think that was just them running out of time and hence the reason there is a new story coming in DLC. It is really another money grab. The game should have come with a story.

    Game play:
    Key word here is repetitive. If you love repetitive open world games with easy combat like Minecreaft you will love this.
    The over world is empty unless you like repeating the same things over and over for no reward.
    The side quests are total crap. Just run and fetch quests again for rewards that are just generic rubbish you can normally find anywhere.
    We completed all 120 shrines in this game, never got stuck and there is nothing memorable about any of them. They are all largely the same thing with the same skills you earn straight away in the game. It is extremely boring and repetitive to find and complete them all although some of them are hidden quite well. By the end I realized the chests weren't worth getting in the shrines (oh look a piece of topaz you can get by just hitting a rock on the mountain) and that we were just wasting our time.
    I played with my daughter who is 14 and by her own admission she sucks at videos games. She completed all the bosses by herself, no issues. The bosses are cookie cutter, nothing memorable about any of them. I wonder if they purposely dumbed these down for the minecraft generation it looks like they were looking to attract? There are no dungeons. The beasts are just bigger versions of the shrines.
    Ganon barely features. You can go fight him whenever you want but apart from that he is not seen anywhere else. He was incredibly easy for my daughter to beat. She didn't die once.
    The supposed strongest monsters, Lynels and Guardians, are easy to defeat. There is a hard mode you can purchase but who wants to waste more money?
    There are barely any monsters in this huge open world, just palette swaps of the same creatures. The chests aren't worth bothering with as there is nothing interesting to find that you can't find elsewhere. The koroks seeds again just the same repetitive puzzles. The towns are small and sell exactly the same items. You really do not care about any of the characters either as they have no depth.
    The climbing is cool apart from when it is raining. There just is no point to the rain apart to frustrate you. The glider can be fun at first as well but soon becomes tiresome.
    The need to survive the elements is also quite annoying as you have to keep switching out your armour. Just seems pointless as you break game play each time to switch out your armour.
    Same goes for weapons breaking. We ended up just using the Master Sword the majority of the time and even that has a cool down period. Part of the excitement about an RPG type game where you find loot is collecting the games best weapons. This makes them into consumables and in the end you stop bothering to even open chests as its usually only rubbish anyway. As mentioned earlier the same goes for the chests in the Shrines. The Shines are just to get an extra heart piece that you do not really even need.

    Verdict:
    This game is like Minecraft with Zelda branding. I believe it was rushed out as well to make the release date for the Switch. The over world is empty unless you want to mine rocks and find food ala Minecraft. The base camps are exactly the same thing. Slash at the same creatures, get a crummy chest, rinse and repeat.
    This game is not fit to lace Link to the Past or Ocarina of times boots. This is just a crummy kids open world game that has had a Zelda face over to help it sell. This game isn't even close to being a classic and should not be mentioned in the same breath as those games.    … Expand

    It's just as boring as you think it is. When people say that there is 'so much to do' they mean that you can do the same things, over and over again, a lot.

    * The puzzles are boring and/or annoying.
    * The exploration is fun for about 10 hours (meaning that it IS genuinely fun, but it gets old if you're looking for any kind of depth).
    * The story is cringe-inducing.
    * There is no depth beyond the exploration, combat, and the crappy puzzles (shrines). Those three things are what you cycle through endlessly until you get tired or you decide to beat the game.
    * This isn't really Zelda, not at all in it's ideal form.

    If you consider Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask works of art, or 'experiences', then you will see right through this game. I'm not saying you won't like it, I'm just saying that you'll know exactly what's what after about 30 minutes.

    Now, gripes out of the way: This game is RELAXING. Play it if you want to just do random stuff all day in Zelda-land and sometimes impress yourself with your ingenuity, find cute things to giggle about, and just kind of mindlessly 'do something'. The game, however, is not worth investing your imagination into, there's nothing here. It's a theme park.

    You are basically travelling, visiting, cooking and helping people for hours and hours because fighting break your beloved weapons, story is not that immersive, shrine and korok seeds grinding is repetitive and main quests too less to make it a great game.

The exploration in this game is unrivaled, you can spend hours upon hours just walking around in the world and your always rewarded by your time. Combat is surprisingly deep and fun only beaten by the dark souls combat but nothing even comes close to dark souls so that's no criticism. I've heard that some people have called this game empty and I don't know which game they've been playing but this game is far from it, rather I feel like this game nearly has too much too do, if that's even possible, because it's hard to get to the main quest when your constantly occupied by some side activity. With only 4, this game has the least amount of dungeons in the series and you would think that that would be a disadvantage but first and for most the 4 you get are all amazing and will take some time to figure out and secondly with 120 shrines that work kind of like mini dungeons the void that could have been made by the small amount of dungeons is filled. The last thing I want to talk about in this review is the story. This is another section of the game that has received a lot of criticism, and yes the story loses some of the focus since your allowed to go everywhere you want so it's hard to feed you a constant stream of story, but the story that is here is all amazing and probably better than any other Zelda game before. The most impressive thing to me is how the character of Zelda is built. She is given an actual personality I'm not going to spoil anything here but I promise you, you will get the feels for this character. To conclude, this is an amazing game with an unrivaled sense of wonder and adventure. The game isn't without its flaws but it never hinders the experience, everyone is in-titled to their own opinion and it's OK if you didn't enjoy the game like I did but in my book this is a 10/10.… Expand

The entire story line is open as soon as you jump off the Great Plateau. You don't get very good weapons at first so its hard to do much significant stuff. 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.

    I give it a 9/10 because Zelda BotW is not a perfect game. It is an ALMOST perfect game, though.

    It does feel refreshing to walk into this adventure and make it your own. There are just a handful of tips, clues and tutorials and the rest is up to you. It completely connected me back to the very first Zelda, on the NES, when you would start the game, get a sword and, well, good luck.    I give it a 9/10 because Zelda BotW is not a perfect game.

    BotW follows the same principle. This is YOUR story. Make it your OWN. Discover it, feel it, EXPERIENCE it. You will die a lot, for sure; but you will also be amazed with your discoveries. That´s the beauty of this phenomenal experience. I am loving to play this and I think it was worth it to buy a Switch just to play it. I absolutely love this game and I really think everyone should play it to see for themselves that the hype, the praise, it is all real.

    But, like I said before, this is not a perfect game. It has its fair share of flaws. My biggest complain being the weapon durability system. It sucks. It makes me like the game less. Zelda is all about a collection of an arsenal, and to hone your skills around them. This is gone, for good. You get a fair amount of weapons and shields that break just around the corner. I understand the mindset behind this mechanic, but I really feel it hurts the game. If Zelda BotW had a fixed inventory of weapons and items, the experience (at least for me) would be much, much better.    … Expand

    Overview of Play Time:
    I have played 70 hours, completed 75/120 Shrines, found 78/900 korok seeds, saved 3/4 divine beasts and unlocked the entire map. I still haven't beat the game but that's because I'm waiting until I get all the shrines unlocked.

    I have played 70 hours, completed 75/120 Shrines, found 78/900 korok seeds, saved 3/4 divine beasts and unlocked the entire map. I still haven't beat the game but that's because I'm waiting until I get all the shrines unlocked.

    Comparison to The Witcher 3:
    The Witcher 3 was the best Open-World game prior to BOTW because of its size, graphics, combat and story. I beat the game and started a second play through and have enjoyed every second of it. The big difference between The Witcher 3 and BOTW is the dialogue options, of course, but also the importance of main quests in each game. When playing the Witcher 3 it gives you recommendation character levels to beat each mission and completing certain ones can prevent you from completing others. This is as linear as the game will get but this simple thing will only allow a certain amount of quests one can complete while completing the game. In BOTW there are no recommended levels to complete quests making this game a pure non linear experience allowing the most freedom from any game previous. Another big comparison between the two are the map sizes because both are similar in map size but the BOTW FEELS way more massive. This has to do with the ability to climb and shrines. The mountains in the BOTW are no joke and you can plan to spend 10-20 min. climbing the big ones When you reach the top is the moment you feel the vastness of the map, which you can't find in other games. Both games also include horses but in BOTW you never really want to ride the horse because the game is better running/climbing around every nook and cranny.

    BOTW is for smart people ONLY:
    This game is filled with shrines, which require puzzle solving and physics combined, Korok seeds require quick thinking for some but mostly involve puzzles, most of the side and shrine quests are riddles and rarely show where to go, divine beasts are massive puzzles, etc. This is where I think the majority of the negative feedback is coming from because most people find the game too hard and blame it on the breaking of weapons, blah, blah.. This where weapon prioritizing comes in and is an important skill to learn throughout the game.

    The one negative thing:
    When completing side quests, the reward is usually a large rupee. I didn't have a problem with this at first but after a while I wish there was more variety. There is one side quest in the desert town Gerudo that I wish more side quests were like, *Thunder Hel.... *cough* because of it taking multiple side quests to complete. Rupee's in BOTW come very easily because of the items found throughout exploration so having them as a reward is a small letdown.

    Summary:
    I still have a lot more to do before I call it quits with BOTW and it's going to be a while before that happens. I have had multiple moments throughout the game where I just look at the atmosphere and just let out a "Wow!". The game is uniquely gorgeous and tests your curiosity like no other game before it. Go out there, buy a Switch and buy this game because you are missing out on one of the best gaming experiences in your lifetime.    … Expand

    I have spent over 50 hours in the game, and overall, it was well spent. There is a huge sense of wonderment as you explore the massive world that's rarely achieved by games. Every new area explored feels like a new and unique experience. The game keeps you entertained the whole way through, which is all due to the dense amount of content.

To be honest, I´m PC Gamer nowadays and don´t even own PS or XBOX Consoles, but grew up in the SNES-Era and played every Nintendo Console and Zelda Games since. Now I tried the Switch-Version of BotW, I´m about 22 hours in. It is NOT a "Masterpiece". It´s NOT "the best game ever made" and it´s NOT worth beeing rated 10/10. It´s a solid Open World game and of course it´s fun to play it. It´s a worthy successor to many previous Zelda Titles, such as Twilight Princess and provides a good gameplay experience, ok graphics and the typical Zelda-Feeling you´d expect from the franchise. Well designed, huge world. But on the other hand, it´s far away from beeing perfect and that should be obvious for every gamer out there... Weapons break way to frequently, the inventory and menu handling takes much time, switching weapons or Slate Skills simply takes too long and is not too intuitive. Speaking of the slate, that thing doesn´t offer too many features. Even "A Link to the past" had more specific Items which brought a much wider variation to the game. You find Bows all the time, but getting Arrows is a pain in the ass (at least at the beginning) and extremely expensive to buy. Why even implementing Bows at all if the´re not utilized because of constant lack of arrows? The world is damn huge, but kinda empty and lifeless sometimes. There aren´t as many different enemy types as well, you got severe frame drops every here and then (reminds me of the unbearable slowdown of some NES games back in the days...) and in conclusion, I truly can´t understand those Critic review rankings of 97... Zelda: BotW is very good, but not THAT great.… Expand

    Un Zelda que no decepciona, apuesta por un mundo libre gigantesco, que te puede costar mas de 200 horas explorarlo por completo, ademas de que esta lleno de detalles, divertido, y sobre todo vivo, algo parecido a lo que hizo Shenmue. Las misiones principales tienen unas 12 o 13 horas. Buenos graficos. Lo peor es el pase de temporada, que le resta mucho

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild is a fantastic game. That's literally all I have to say

    Well maybe I'll say more...

    The game starts off with an old man who gives information about the shrines and temples, and tells you to get all four shrines in the plateau. In those four shrines, you get special abilities such as magnesis, which helps you move metal objects with your shieka slate, or stasis, which freezes guardians, gears, and other enemies. The best part about this is that you can go to any of these shrines in any order you desire. After obtaining all 4 shrines, the old man tells you to go to the center of the shrines, which leads to a church. At the top of the church, you'll find the old man, who explains that he used too be king of Hyrule, and that Zedla has been keeping Calamity Ganon from reaching full power. He tells Link that he's the chosen one, tells you to go to find Impa in a village. From here on the choice in up to you. You can either go find Impa. Or go to Hyrule and die a bunch like I did. When you find Impa you screw this Im bored. You go find Impa, she tells you about the 4 divine beasts you kill em and the all like oh **** but the people who are ancestrs are like oh ye and you can like get miphas grace which won let you die or daruks protection which sounds like a condom to protect you from **** so after you kill em all you go to hyrule kill ganon but b4 u do that you have to get all 120 shrines and all the memories. Gameplay is great, you can choose from a variety of weapons like the Knight's Broadsword, Dragonbone Moblin Club, to a Savage Lynel Sword.

    In this review, the game will start off with 5 points, gaining or losing them throughout this review.

    For a full review, go to the Team MM YouTube channel and turn on notifications so you don't miss it.

    If you haven't played this game yet, OPEN YOUR EYES. You have missed one of the best games to EVER come out, and that's saying something.

    Now, another spoiler warning, if you don't want to have the game spoiled for you.

    Review:

    Open your eyes... Open your eyes. Wake up, Link.
    You wake up after a 100 year sleep in the Shrine of Resurrection, where the main tutorial takes place. "Oh No!" you say to yourself. "Another seven-hour long Zelda tutorial!" Then you start playing. You learn most of the the basic mechanics in this shrine, such as climbing, wearing clothes, and using the "Sheikah Slate," a plot tool/super cool item to use, all within... 1 minute? That's right, after this tutorial, you're out in the huge open world of the Great Plateau, the birthplace of the kingdom of Hyrule. 2 points for the short tutorial. After meeting an old man, you're free to explore the HUGE world of BotW... until you realise that the huge area you're in only accounts for about 2% of the world. The old man tells you to complete four shrines, the mini-dungeons of the game, so let's say you do it. You've just unlocked the four main mechanics of the game:

    Cryonis, to freeze giants blocks of ice on top of water, making it possible to cross.

    Stasis, allowing you to freeze almost anything in time, to put either kinetic energy into it or to stop it from ramming into you.

    Magnesis, allowing you to move metallic objects out of the way.

    Bombs. Just bombs. You have an unlimited supply of them! One point for unlimited bombs.

    Now that you have completed the shrines, you can get back to the old man on the roof of the temple of time, who will do something so spoilery that even with a spoiler warning, I won't tell you. He gives you the paraglider, a tool that lets you escape the plateau, into the HUGE open world (2 points for minimal time spent in opening area) ... until you realise that you first need to go VERY far to Kakariko village, then even FARTHER to Hateno village, only to be told to go BACK to Kakariko village. After that, you are told to find a certain location (When you're nearby, you'll see a rainbow shine where it is). The easiest one to find is near the Great Plateau, which means you have to go all the way back there, and then go BACK TO KAKARIKO VILLAGE (YES, AGAIN)! Minus 6 points for boring stuff! Anyway, after that, you're playing a Nearly Flawless game. PROS (Plus 0.5 to 2 points for each): HUGE WORLD (2), hard fighting without the frustration (2) (somehow, Nintendo added difficulty absolutely PERFECTLY), good weapon levelling system (1) FUN GAMEPLAY (2), great graphics (1), and LOTS OF FUN PUZZLES (1). Cons: Weapons and shields break super fast (2), Too easy to defeat guardians as long of you have a shield (0.5). VERDICT: BotW was a very fun game. If you've been keeping track, you would know that the score is currently 9.5. 9.5 is rounded to 10, so, The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, Gets a 10 out of 10.    … Expand

I never thought Ocarina of Time could actually be rivaled, but this game is doing just that. This game's world is massive, yet every bit of it is built with an unprecedented level of care and intention. The world is so beautifully crafted that you just have to stop and stare sometimes. This place is so believable, and it is so easy to get hopelessly immersed inside of it. Exploring never feels tedious or repetitive, and there's always something to do or discover. Also, this game contains one of the most incredible physics engines ever created. Things move around and react to stimuli so realistically and it is so fun to play around with. For example, wind dynamically moves around grass, and if you cut down a tree, it falls in the direction you hit it. The game also has a very dynamic and satisfying combat system, which is simple at face value, but has a lot of interesting and complex possibilities in practice. This game's soundtrack while exploring is largely quiet piano cues from time to time, and while its very subtle, its beautiful and captures the experience perfectly. Town themes are very relaxing and well suited to the location and combat makes use of dynamic music, which perfectly compliment the actions inside battles. Some standout tracks outside of those include the exciting and tense Guardian encounter theme, the catchy accordion melody of Kass's theme, and the game's phenomenal new main theme. Another thing is the visuals. While its not extremely realistic, it doesn't need to be nor is it supposed to be. It has a uniquely stylized look with a vibrant and rich color palette, topped off with stellar lighting and shadow engines. One of my favorite features in the game are the 100+ shrines, which are like mini-dungeons, scattered across the map. Finding them is a blast and inside are some of the most deviously clever puzzles in Zelda history. I don't want to give away anything, but the story, while not a huge focus this time around, is pretty darn good too. And lastly, this game just induces some of the most indescribable feelings I've felt playing a video game. Just walking through the massive landscapes as the sun is setting, and the wind blows through the grass, I just feel happy and at peace. I know that sounded really pretentious but that's the only way I know how to communicate that. At times, it almost feels like a disservice to call this a video game. Breath of the Wild is truly an experience. It has been so long since I've felt so strongly about any piece of media. This is something you really just need to play to believe, and I give it the highest of recommendations.… Expand

The puzzles are excellent, and exploring is loads of fun, but I don't think it quite reaches the 10 score that everyone is giving it. For one while the world feels very alive there are huge areas of pretty much nothing, really I think the map size should have been a lot smaller so there wasn't these large stretches of boringness. Also while I like the idea of breaking weapons, I think they break waaaaayyy too soon. 5-10 hits is barely anything and thats usually how long a weapon will last. With the speed at which gear breaks the game ends up being largely inventory management, which isn't very fun. Really those are my two big complaints. Other than that this game delivers a unique experience that feels like zelda, and also like a whole new game. I'd say its the near perfect revival to the series. The addition of new abilities like magnesis and time halting are really fun to mess around with and widen the sandbox nature of the game, and besides a few rough patches in highly populated towns or cities, it runs great of the switch.… Expand

    The combat is fun and challenging, the puzzles are everywhere, some are quite simple, others will have you thinking for a while. And as you would expect there's plenty of cool things hidden around the world for you to discover. I love that quests don't just rely on putting a marker on your map, they give you directions and it's up to you to figure it out.

    If you own a switch, you simply have to have this game.

    I can't quite give it a 10/10. More like a 9.5 as it's missing a few small features that I think would really round it off into the perfect game. For example it would be great if there was a GTA/WoW style stats tracker, that could tell you how many of certain enemies you've killed, how long you've spent playing, etc. etc.

    I also think a Monster Hunter style recipe book (i.e. it only tells you a recipe once you've already made it once) would also work really well in this game.

    But this game is already worth its value, and that is set to be extended with some DLC in Summer and Winter. Simply a must buy!    … Expand

And the list goes on and on on the positives of this game. As for the ones giving this game a 0 and such, think about this guys. How can ANY game get a 0 score? A 0 is only fit for trolling purposes.

    So, I tried this game by suggestion of friends and people online, and that was when this game received 100 score of metacritic.
    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.

    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.

It's nothing but a Farcry/Darksouls mutation with a Zelda skin. After going through about 10 weapons in 10 minutes of gameplay you begin to wonder what where they thinking when they designed this?
    The after going to the 100th shrine wondering where is my reward? Oh, was it the rusty shield or the broadsword in the chest? Wait, but, that's going to break in a few hits.. I noticed a pattern here.. I've been grinding shrines/towers, and breaking weapons and all this time.. I have nothing to show for it.. Every once in awhile you will get a piece of armor that gives some resistance or swim speed or something to that effect, but they don't really help much.
    Oh and, don't bother trying to do the story from the start... get ready to grind shrines until you have a ton of spirit orbs to get more hearts and stamina or you will be having a heck of a time dying over and over again in the most frustrating ways.
    Many of the features in the game are just terrible.
    The breaking of weapons leaves you with the feeling of no rewards. No way to be attached to your gear and feel like you are progressing into a hero once again awoken from slumber.
    The stop time ability is very frustrating to line up your shots and using it will break your weapons and I have wasted many on it, and if you think you can use a tree branch to launch a stone ball 100 yrs think again.
    The controls seem clunky at times, having to quick switch weapons constantly during a fight or pause the game to eat, sometimes I wish they would have make a slot to put a healing item to just press it and heal instead of pausing, going to the food section then picking something the resuming. It just isn't very fluid and breaks combat. At times you will just die before you can get it paused and do the whole eating in the middle of a fight routine.
    The towers remind me too much of FarCry.. the repetitive cutscenes and grinding just got boring after the 10th tower and 40th shrine..
    Oh and did I mention the breaking of weapons? lol, They say you can parry a Guardians laser back at them and do damage.. what they don't tell you is it breaks your shield lol, so get ready to have a few shields broken fighting one.
    Many people have said they just avoid combat altogether because of this mechanic. I myself began doing this. The game became even more boring after that, just running from shrine to shrine, tower to tower, to get orbs to get more health because I was unable to do the story without grinding for hours.. it's a beautiful world that surrounds the Calamity Ganon of a game.    … Expand

    The story is really impressive. I feel as though they have designed the world to be quite spacious and have an empty and wild feel to it, in a way that you want to explore and discover the story yourself. I rarely find myself wanting to speak to people in game, but this game make sure you feel like very dialogue is a nugget of gold. This could be seen as a negative, but I think it makes it all the more exciting.

    The graphics are great, for me at least they are absolutely fine. However for those that prefer more extreme realistic and hyper intense graphics, you might be disappointed. But they have made huge improvements from previous games.

Unfortunately, the addition of voice acting is actually a detriment to the game and at times was borderline unacceptable. The gameplay was much less fluid than Far Cry or Horizon or even Assassin's Creed, a series which has been riddled with bugs and frustrating moments. By introducing these open world elements that have become a staple in modern western games, it forced comparisons to those games. However; if Nintendo would have made a more traditional Zelda game then perhaps it would have left me with a more positive impression of the game. As much as I tried to separate my expectations, to be honest, my opinion of the game was hurt by the overwhelmingly positive reviews it received from critics. I try not to let expectations affect me, but unfortunately that's a reality of gaming. The game isn't without it's merits though. The primary positives are the ability to go/climb anywhere and it's choice to not hold your hand (although even here, Dark Souls did it better). I appreciate both of these things immensely and my first few hours and last few hours of the game were very enjoyable. But somewhere around 30 hours in, I became fatigued and was ready to sprint to the finish. In the end I spent nearly 50 hours on my playthrough and had some wonderful moments in the open world and some unfortunately burdensome moments. Overall, it's an experienced that was very mixed for me, with very high highs and some extremely disappointing lows.… Expand

    This Zelda game does the best out of all the previous Zelda games as far as achieving that original goal in exploration, but does fall a bit short in the story. Nonetheless, this game is the ultimate exploration in game with almost no limits, and is has a very strategic play style with it's combat and dungeons. I would recommend this game to anyone who enjoys life.

    One of the saving graces were the shrines that keep you pushing forward as there are a whopping 120 of them. However I feel that this is overkill and reduced the quality and thoughtfulness of individual shrines. With the exception of a few, the vast majority were quite forgettable.

    As Gamers we should remember that Epic, Vast, and Quantity, are impressive adjectives, but it does not trump QUALITY.

I found myself climbing mountains but the drive for me to do so was weak as I knew the prize at the end of this time consuming task would result in a forgettable shrine, or a Chest with a weapon that was often worse than the one I was carrying at the time. The fights that SHOULD have been challenging, were very simple and easy, and required very little effort on my part resulting in a very underwhelming feeling and a lack of accomplishment.

    That said, it wasn't a bad game by any means. I did enjoy it to a fair degree. Is it a masterpiece? Is it a so called "10/10"? I would definitely have to disagree.    … Expand

    I have played a few Zelda titles in the past and i really enjoyed most of them but BOTW is extremely unique you have so much to do so much to explore and so many distractions the overall experience is absolutely enjoyable. Unfortunately I feel it comes up just a tad short when it comes to the end game and the rewards for the most time consuming achievements like getting all the shrines andI have played a few Zelda titles in the past and i really enjoyed most of them but BOTW is extremely unique you have so much to do so much to explore and so many distractions the overall experience is absolutely enjoyable. Unfortunately I feel it comes up just a tad short when it comes to the end game and the rewards for the most time consuming achievements like getting all the shrines and lack of continent after beating the main story line. Otherwise its a great game i think everyone should give a chance because it's so different from the other Zelda titles that i have experienced myself.… Expand

    As good as a game can get. Amazing soundtrack, story, gameplay. This is my favorite Zelda game, and maybe my favorite game in general. It is, at the very least, a very special game that you likely only see once a decade.

    Never had SOO much fun with a game, and a game has never immersed me and held my attention for hours upon hours on end like this one, What more can be said about this game that hasn't already been said?This could well be the best video game I have ever played. A Beautiful Masterpiece.

    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]
