    Honestly despite giving it a 9, this title has seriously given me some of the best moments i’ve ever experienced while playing a game. Hopefully the sequel can fix some of the combat and add more stuff to its post game.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I need to be honest about the mechanics in this game. I'm not a fan of equipment that brokes, but it's just that. This game got a LOT of content for everyone, insane mechanics, "sandbox", craft and of course, it's Legend of Zelda. I can't say that was the best game I ever played, but it's on the top for sure.
    As I was used to that old games with a half-open world and linear history, so was needed to take time getting used to this new style of gameplay(I didn't play Skyward Sword btw). When in the beginning I was tired doing temples, but as the game goes I was tracking and trying to find all of them. The gameplay makes you want to constantly keep doing all "side" tasks and even more with DLCs. And that adds even more content to the main history which also makes you want to don't give up those events, a very important factor in open-world games.
    I got to be honest that the DLC schema doesn't make me comfortable, but they're ok and add some worth content in the game and gameplay.
    So, if you're a Zelda saga fan it's a must-play, and if don't know the saga or even don't like the games, you gotta give a try it's gonna be worth it.    … Expand

    The history (very reduce, but with so much potential)

The shrine puzzles are hit/miss, some are great, some absolutely suck. None of that is very important though when compared to how much I love the gameplay, it's just so much fun to play. There's only one huge thing I HATE about the gameplay, the breakable weapons, oh do I hate that, such a terrible idea. I assume that was to incentivize moving them through the inventory and use that cool throw thing, but it ends up meaning we have fiddle with menus CONSTANTLY in battles. That sucks so much, it comes close to ruining the rest of what is perfect about this game, but not quite. Having to change a weapon/bow/shield because it broke is annoying every single time it happens, I think about how much I hate it every single time it happens. Truly one of the worst design choices I've ever seen. But the rest of the gameplay is so good that it makes up for it to the point that I still love this game so so much. I love gliding, gathering, cooking, fighting, sneaking, all that stuff. If they put all this open world stuff into a proper linear story for BOTW2 and got rid of breakable weapons it would become the best game ever made, easily. I like linear stories, I just want to choose when to progress the story and when to do side stuff. There was no need to reinvent the wheel for this lame climax moment. The Ganon fight is lame, that was a dumb thing to make the center moment. Big cutscenes suck, nt sure how that became such a popular thing in games. I play games instead of watching movie/tv because i get to control the character. Cutscenes full of expensive animation have become so common they bore me. I hunger for control, not shiny fluff. I'm on a second playthrough and will never do the endfight. It's beautifully fun to just visit the world and wander and do stuff and maybe find something new. But I sure wish I could connect to a story from time to time and friend characters that maybe come with me sometimes. All the other "main" characters do their thing and then bail, they have no depth, we aren't meant to care for them. Link feels like an empty vessel here, I don't like that, I want him to be a personality, not an emptiness to fill with my identity. He should have more story and personality. They failed hardcore on all those elements in this game but they did so well with the gameplay and world making so it's ok, but here's hoping Botw 2 changes all that.… Expand

    This game is perfect in so many ways but I cannot say that the combat is perfect although it's still engaging and a challenge is always good just unexpected for a Zelda game. My children couldn't enjoy the game like I enjoyed Ocarina of Time which sucks.

    una excelente apuesta de nintendo por el mundo abierto a la vez que está lleno de vida en cada rincón del mapa , un link que se transforma durante el progreso del juego con un desarrollo físico y personal en el que de la debilidad y poca tolerancia a la hostilidad, con recursos consigue ser un link fuerte y capaz de hacer frente a cualquier enemigo o reto.

    I finally got around to playing this legendary game, and it's pretty great with some caveats. BOTW is very well-executed.

BOTW is very well-executed. The combat is tight, and the sense of exploration, and delight of discovery, are unparalleled. It also shakes up the Zelda formula by bringing a lot of new concepts to the table, like difficult terrain traversal, and a large open world with high environment interactivity. Fire and water follows realistic physics, so rain will form puddles and make surfaces slippery, and fire will spread to anything flammable.

    For all the progress that this game has made, there's something holding it back from being perfect. Strangely enough, BOTW actually felt too open-ended with too much added complexity. The beauty of a Zelda game is the simplicity of storyline and gameplay. The series features a streamlined experience of sharp gameplay, meaningful exploration, and minimal narrative to get in the way. It's an exercise in minimalism, and the player is always exploring, kicking ass, or moving to the next dungeon. Breath of the Wild has far more complexity than a typical Zelda game, and that's good and bad. BOTW has a lot of meandering around wondering what you're supposed to be doing next, listening to terrible NPC dialog, trying to figure out an obscure quest condition, or remembering the different possible cooking combinations to make your recipe. It is at times simultaneously perplexing and tedious.

    Also this game is really wordy. The other thing I loved about Zelda is that there are few npcs, and they barely talk. BOTW has tons of cringy NPCs, and they won't shut up. You can't tell what is important information, and what's mindless npc banter. I feel like this is another step backwards for the franchise.

    Although an objectively great game, I miss simpler Zelda games like Twilight Princess.    … Expand

There are many different things to find, collect, or fight throughout the huge open world.

    The gameplay is also top-notch with fun mechanics, enemies, bosses, and a fun core gameplay loop. The enormous amount of shrines dotted around the map are great places to test said gameplay mechanics as well as your puzzle solving skills, as you will need to use different mechanics you have learned throughout the game to solve a puzzle or pass a challenge.

    The game also has a somewhat simple but great and impactful narrative that I will not go to into detail of in case of spoilers.

    Overall, this is one of the best The Legend Of Zelda game ever released and one of my personal favourite games currently on the Nintendo Switch. The only reason it is not a 10 for me is because many times I have felt that weapons go through their durability far too fast, and the game does not reach a certain threshold of enjoyment for me to give it a 10. However, I still regard this game as a masterpiece and would recommend this game to anyone with a Nintendo Switch.

For example the seemingly empty world. While the land of Hyrule was destroyed 100 years before the events of the game. Villages could've rebuilt themselves. However it is still a brilliant game , with many things to do and collect. Not to mention that you can just mess around and you might find something nice like the games 120 shrines (12 more including DLC). Or 900 korok puzzles . So if you're getting a switch now definitely pick it up.… Expand

La falla más popular es la dificultad, ya que al principio resulta ser muy difícil sobrevivir pero a medida que vas progresando en la historia te vas dando cuenta que cada vez es más fácil, hasta que llegas en un punto donde te da igual que vengan 20 enemigos porque les revientas de un espadazo.
    También, algo en lo que mucha gente ha visto una falla ha sido en la historia, ya que esta es corta. Yo, sin embargo, si es cierto que la noté corta pero no lo suficiente como para no disfrutar del juego, de echo, hizo todo lo contrario, me gusto y me hizo disfrutar mucho más del juego.

    La cantidad ingente de minimazmorras no las hacen más satisfactoria que completar una clásica, a la vez que otorgan una mejora del personaje demasiado lenta.

    It's fun. It's so much fun that you won't get tired of it. After playing this game, the other games started to become boring. It's a really fun game. However, it was so shocking in the boss fight. The boss was so rest. How does it feel easier than the mission to draw a master sword? The boss fight was so easy that I was so disappointed.

    2) Огромный открытый мир и полная свобода действий!
    3) Прекрасная, запоминающаяся музыка;
    4) Атмосфера;
    5) Игра очень реалистичная, не в плане графики, а в плане физики: здесь вода тушит огонь, а не как в horizon), против ветра тебе тяжело лететь, а по направлению ветра наоборот, с персонажа капают капли воды, если он вылез из какого-нибудь водоёма, вы можете срубить деревья, траву или сжечь еë, в общем, всë что работает в реальной жизни, с 90% вероятностью сработает и здесь, и не зря Зельду сравнивают с рдр2 в плане деталей;
    6) Святилища сделаны достаточно интересно, большинство из них не похожи друг на друга (если отбросить испытание силы) и помогают разобраться в механиках игры;
    7) Кто-то скажет, что игра выглядит как пастген, а я скажу, что это одна из самых красивых игр - благодаря своему визуальному стилю она сохранится на долгие годы, реалистичная же графика устарела бы спустя несколько лет, да и просто смотреть на леса, горы, озёра - на природу в целом, одно удовольствие.
    Недостатки:
    1) Поначалу, когда мы покидаем начальную локацию, игра может показаться хардкорной, ведь какой-нибудь каменный глыбник может убить с одного удара, даже если ты в броне. Однако, после часов 20-30, когда ты изучил механики боя, у тебя полно еды, которая не только полностью отхилит тебя, но и даст дополнительные сердца, игра станет очень лёгкой, и боссы будут отлетать от тебя спустя минуту;
    2) Дополнительные задания в игре, в большинстве случаев никакие. Да, игра не РПГ, а адвенчура, но всё-таки.
    3) На полную озвучку то ли Nintendo поскупились, то ли посчитали это не нужным, что отчасти верно, ибо диалоги - это буквально пара строчек, но видеть полную озвучку было бы приятнее.
    Я бы хотел дать игре и 10/10, но по мне такой игры просто не существует, ибо это что-то идеальное или очень близко к идеальному, а в Зельде всё-таки есть косяки. В общем, над игрой работали очень долго, и результат того стоил! Breath of the wild стала самой продаваемой игрой в серии, получила кучу наград, в том числе и игра года, да и просто завоевала огромную любовь у игроков. Очень надеюсь, что уже сиквел не только привнесёт новые хорошие механики и идеи, но и исправит старые недочёты.    … Expand

    - They just don't offer the same traverseability as climbing the nearest hill and gliding straight to your destination.
    - There is SO MUCH content packed into this game that I get easily distracted because why call your Mount when the next cool thing is a jog's distance away?
    - Once you beat a Shrine that's at an elevated position, like on a mountain, you just have to teleport to the shrine and glide to your nearest objective.    … Expand

    Nintendo managed to move the Zelda series forward without sacrificing the soul of the saga, a game that can be enjoyed by hardcore fans and newcomers.

Exploration is the core of the game: the sense of adventure, the feeling of freedom and the curiosity for the unexplored drive the player wandering from start to finish. Visually stunning, breathtaking landscapes. Cons: A world without boundaries comes with a cost: every area has to be accessible to the player from the beginning, hence there is no real curve of difficulty or progression throughout the game (expect maybe for the first 5/10 hours when you are still getting familiar with the mechanics). Landscapes are beautiful and diverse but the game recycle a lot of assets and situations: you will find the same enemies throughout the world, the same architecture and aesthetic for shrines and "dungeons", same korok puzzles ecc. That being said, the game is enjoyable for dozens of hours even for people who usually dislike dispersive worlds. I prefer games with a tight focus, quality over quantity but i found myself spending over 100 hours with this game. Breath of the wild is an extraordinary game, there is a lot of space for improvement (combat system, inventory management, dungeons ecc.) and that's what keeps me excited for the sequel.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This game is well made. I have heard this game's map is big as Kyoto in Japan. The game's fun to explore, and it's very fun with the mechanics.

    Story:
    It's about a boy named Link that has been sleeping for the past 100 years. He must save the Hyrule Kingdom and the princess Zelda who is trapped there. Calamiity Ganon made of malice of evil; has taken over Hyrule castle and soon will take over the world.

    While Link need to talk with The King of Hyrule: The last Leader of Hyrule. As he must also talk to Mipha and befree the divine beasts wich is selected by four Champions that is in control of the Calamity Ganon.

    Content:
    As the game goes, you can freely explore the world of Hyrule and visit the Shrines in the game of puzzles and as reward: a Sprit Orb. The Spirit Orbs can you offer to the statues of the Goddes and in return of selected of an extra heart container or a extended stamina wheel wich you decides.

    There are also three types or quests in the game: "Main Quests" is where you follow the story and other main content, "Requests" where you do task for the people (such as searching for something) and "Srhine Quests" where you do quests that make some hidden shrines appear.

    Gameplay:
    There are monsters spread all over that wants to take you down. Of course you need wepons. You can find meele wepons from a branch to a sword that's strong and able to shoot light of it. The wepons, bows and sheilds break and you need to hunt for more wepons. Many monsters are carrying wepons already in their hands you can just take from. Chests, rewards and lucky finding will you find wepons, bows, arrows and shield as well.

    You can also male a fireplace and camp for the night and also day, cook up some recipes, dicover new combats and much more!

    This game is truly exellent and is worth of buying. Really look forward to the sequel!    … Expand

    Me gusta mucho el tema de los recuerdos, cinemáticas que te vas encontrando por todo el mapa para avivar un poco el lore y la memoria de Link.
    Eso sí, hay algunas misiones que son cansinas hasta decir basta, las típicas misiones que hay en todos los juegos que, si las hubiesen omitido, aunque entiendo que son necesarias, el juego sería de 10.
    De lo mejor que tiene es la mecánica de la escalada, se puede ir a cualquier sitio escalando, eso es una gozada y un plus para el mundo abierto.
    Quizás se te pueda hacer confuso, si no estás acostumbrado a este tipo de juegos, no saber a dónde ir, ni que hacer ahora, porque el juego te da libertad plena, lo único que tienes que hacer es acabar con Ganon, y listo.
    Al final se acaba haciendo, aunque te acostumbras, un poco pesado el tema de que se vaya rompiendo todo, el tema del frío, etc., pero lo dicho, te acostumbras, y con los trajes, se va solucionando.
    Los bosses en general me parecieron bastante sencillos para lo que nos tiene acostumbrados la saga, quizás es una de las mayores pegas que le pongo, te revienta tanto un npc cualquier de por ahí que Gaonon.

    Por decir algo malo, este juego debería estar en PC, porque la Switch no puede a veces con él, sobre todo en el Bosque Kolog, la historia quizás sea demasiado sencilla para un juego de este calibre, y los enemigos, en especial los bosses, quizás se hagan sencillos de más.    … Expand

    It is an awesome game. However, I did not like the part when Link must get dressed as a woman to access Gerudo's town. That was pretty weird. I think the character lost his masculinity, his hero essence.

    Still not my favourite zelda, Link to The Past was more consistently great, but the nice thing about BoTW is that during its best moments, it really reaches heights no other game has reached before. So there really isn't much to be said    What a pleasant surprise! I must say I'm really taken by this game. I bought a switch recently, and this is one of the best games of the decade.

    Still not my favourite zelda, Link to The Past was more consistently great, but the nice thing about BoTW is that during its best moments, it really reaches heights no other game has reached before.

    So there really isn't much to be said about the vast open world that hasn't been said. The title is suitable, the world really is alive and breathing. However, I want to address the 2 most controversial
    things about the game: The story, and the weapon durability.

    The story is admittedly quite lacking. There seems to have been a change to zelda's personality as a sort of nerdy, weird geek or something, and I actually think it was supposed to be endearing somehow. I'm having a hard time remembering much else of the story, so that sort of goes to show.

    The weapon durability is there to encourage players to think creatively, but in my experience that was hardly needed. There really isn't much incentive to be creative as armour pretty much breaks the game. Only way to make botw's combat work is to have many self imposed restrictions, which is a bit unfortunate. However, when you can be creative, you can be REALLY creative. This video should suffice to prove my point (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9EvbqxBUG_c). The weapon durability was a good idea somewhat poorly implemented.

    In general, BoTW gives the player a huge amount of freedom, which is fantastic. However, that comes with its own downsides. The problem is that when you're climbing or skating, you have no real obstacles, and so are somewhat disengaged. The climbing is great and all, but it really can wear out it's welcome.

    The game also holds your hand too much, the puzzles are rather easy, the bosses are a let down, but honestly, when you hold these against the pure joy of freedom and exploration this game offers you like no other, they are minor issues, flecks of dirt against a wonderful and vast whole.

    A 10/10 wouldn't be fair of me, but this game has its moments where it can feel like one. If you enjoy exploration, you really owe it to yourself to play this. Highly recommended    … Expand

When I started playing this game, the Sheikah Towers and the way they work were very similar to the towers in Far Cry 3 I noticed, and it disappointed me that there was a game mechanic that was similar to some other game I had already played, but that really isn't something bad. The only bad thing I have to say about this game is when there is an enemy you are maneuvering around, if there is a wall or a climbable object, you just latch on to the object and are stuck there for a bit and that lets the enemy hit you, and sometimes these objects are behind your camera therefore you couldn't even see it, and when this happened it was beyond frustrating. Other than that, this game is one of the best game ever created.

    The characters, the story, the landscape the gameplay. It fits all together in a beautiful game. However, I am not a big Zelda fan, and this game has changed my opinion of Zelda a bit. The puzzles are fun and interesting and sometimes are confusing, but eventually it clicks. One thing you have to avoid while playing a game like this is looking up how to do puzzles, because the satisfaction just goes out the window. The combat in this game is also just amazing. Even after beating the game, excluding the DLC, there is still so much left to do and then you can beat it all over again in Mastermode.

It kinda feels like a better Mario sunshine in a sense, in which the developers are testing out new things and inviting you along into those tests, but this time they feel smoother, better and more streamlined.

Even though these aspects helped in solidifying my rating of the game, when I imagine the title at its best, it’s always the tranquil landscapes, punctuated by a striking piano melody. In this rendition of Hyrule, everything is lost. As I traveled the land, I would be regularly reminded of what had taken place 100 years ago, the day when the kingdom lost its king and its life. The faithful day when the champions went to confront their fate, only to be met with a grim reminder of their powerlessness. The foe they faced knew how to exploit the civilization’s hubris, withholding that their technology and mastery over the beasts of legend would be enough to save them from catastrophe. Link wakes up 100 years after the faithful day, having failed in his duties, he barely understands the land upon which he walks, or his purpose. The wound is old, and this generation has forgotten the horrors of the calamity which claimed the lives of many, and so has nature. Nature doesn’t care about Ganon, it doesn’t care about lives, it just exists. As Link travels, Hyrule itself greets Link, and he acknowledges it as its own creature, deformed and corrupted by Ganon’s influence. In Link’s quest to reclaim the land, he has to first become acquainted with it. As he gathers enough Spirit Orbs to once again wield the Blade of Evil’s Bane, as he frees the Divine Beasts, and as he discovers each trial, there is always a layer of sorrow and regret lurking beneath.

    In one sentence: The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild’s greatest achievement is in making the player grief for the desecrated land of Hyrule.

I finished this game like two years ago, but wanted to write a quick review since im currently playing through TOTK and will write a review for that once i finished that game.

    I'm going to list the negatives first,
    -Weapon breaking although it didn't bother me too much, it was annoying at first when you get a cool weapon and then it breaks.... i don't really understand why the bows break either. I think what they should of done for this game is make it where some weapons break easily, and then have a few more weapons that don't break at all. Because there's no reasons why the weapons break fast (totk provides reasons why at least in the story). Don't hate the overall mechanic, and it's more improved in TOTK
    -Enemy variety- This in my opinion is the weakest part of the game, the boss fights are all the same type of enemy. there's very few different minion types.
    Music- The music in the game is fine, it's just weaker compared to other games in the series.

    Positives
    - Combat is fun, fast, and fluid. Controls are responsive. So many different ways to approach fights
    - art direction/style is amazing, and I'm glad to say they carried that over to TOTK.
    -lots of characters in the game that can provide some comic relief at times
    -overall solid story, I like how you don't really know what's going on at first but slowly learn what exactly happened in the past, and what's going on currently. I love the final boss battles as it's very cinematic and symbolic.
    -I like the puzzles in the game, most of the puzzles were fair and it's fun using your special abilities to solve most of them.
    -The different environments are well designed.
    -Several hours of gameplay easily provided

    Overall, as an open world game it perfectly gives this vibe of "oh today I'm going to explore this part of hyrule," and spend like a good two hours doing that. It's an easy game to jump in and out of, and just have fun. I would set a goal of what I wanted to accomplish in my gaming session (usually about two-three hours at most), and then go have fun. It was fun just exploring the map. To those that complain about the game being open world, you do realize that a lot of zelda games are open world???, from wind waker, twilight princess, OOT, and many more focuses on the exploration. I can understand the complaints about wanting a more traditional game though like OOT, but idk if they are going to do that anymore. TOTK is more breath of the wild, and it's going to be years before a new zelda game since TOTK was just released a few months ago. What is clear is that these games sell very well, and I get why TOTK is very similar to this game. Maybe in the future games we'll get a different setting.

    It's pretty simple though, if u like this game then you'll like TOTK.    … Expand

It has hours of content and more with the DLC. The combat is fun, but when a weapon breaks mid-combat it's not satisfying. The game makes itself incredibly fun with things like runes. The main story is pretty much that of any Zelda game, Zelda gets captured by Ganon and it's your job to save her.

    A great game, with open-world designs, full voice acting, and better shaded models that remind me of The Wind Waker. I really loved Patricia Summersett's voicing of Zelda, instead of just Japanese grunts. Making food to heal Link is really fun as well. However, it's too difficult.

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

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

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

    There's not much to say that hasn't already been said about BOTW: it's a beautiful game which, for the most part, plays very smoothly, and is generally just great fun.

    As I picked my way through the 140+ hours I invested into this game I imagined I would leave the game with a score of around 5-7. My main complaint was with the controls, they just never really gelled for me. But as I got to the 50+ hours mark it started to be less painful to play, and by the time I was 100+ hours in I was in love with it, in spite of the controls.

    At the beginning of the game I was frustrated that it seemed as if every single character in the game was much stronger than Link. I was burning through my resources staying alive in even the most basic of fights. And it was impossible to find enough arrows! Every NPC I met would talk at length about how Link was a great hero and only he had the strength to wield the master sword, yet even the smallest enemies would murder me with just a couple of hits!

    But all of these things improve if you persevere.

    What I found very frustrating was the fact that, at times, it wasn't clear what was needed in order to progress and often I had to look things up. If I have to look things up then the game's failed to communicate its ideas properly. And some things that you need to do regularly, like cooking, aren't done in a way that allows you to work in bulk to get the job done quickly so that you can return to gaming… it can be a boring process cooking meals so that you don't die in the middle of your next battle!

    While I loved exploring the large open world and getting quests, the main storyline was actually a bit boring. Music was, in places, very good. But in most places, listening to the same few tracks for 140 hours got somewhat tedious. Voice acting was good for some characters, but not great for Zelda herself. As the principle character and the character with the most lines I honestly expected better.

    While there was evidence that the designers had tried to make Zelda a stronger character in this game, rather than just a damsel in distress, they didn't really succeed. She has her moments, but ultimately, at its core, this is really just another game about a bloke fighting a dragon (of sorts) to retrieve a princess from a castle. I'd have loved to have seen something new and original here. Still, it didn't feel like a waste of time, I just felt like the main storyline could have been so much stronger.

    So my verdict is that this is a game that takes a while to get into, for me at least, but it's worth sticking with to the bitter end as I thoroughly enjoyed the game in the end and was glad I invested the time. It just took a lot of frustrating hours to get to that point!    … Expand

    Most gaming companies rely heavily on what's the newest trend to release their game, and lately, it seems to be an open world.
    When Nintendo announced that the new Legend of Zelda would be an open-world RPG (that runs on Wii U) I was skeptical that they would archive something great and original, without creating cliches in gameplay mechanics.
    Zelda Breath of the Wild not only it's    Most gaming companies rely heavily on what's the newest trend to release their game, and lately, it seems to be an open world.
    When Nintendo announced that the new Legend of Zelda would be an open-world RPG (that runs on Wii U) I was skeptical that they would archive something great and original, without creating cliches in gameplay mechanics.
    Zelda Breath of the Wild not only it's original, but it's also so revolutionary that every single new open-world game has ripped off its mechanics.
    There is a problem with open-world games, and it's the open world. An open-world game that just uses these mechanics to fill the entire world with sidequest and collectibles has failed to reach its purpose. What's the point of having a vast world where it's possible to reach any location if there is nothing to do? Or what if I'm too low on XP to enter a specific region? At that point, the game loses its mechanic of being open-world, because it demands the player to do specific quests or farm enough to enter a location.
    Breath of the Wild has none of those problems. The game starts immediately by saying what you have to do, and you can do it right away. The only real main quest is given at the start of the game, all the other quests are story-related, and will give you a big advantage in the final boss battle.
    Breath of the Wild also has a very specific level system. Instead of farming XP to use better equipment or unlock skills, you get better by playing, and so do monsters, becoming stronger and stronger, and dropping more quality weapons.
    The only thing that can be level-up in Zelda is the HP and Stamina, in order to do that you have to complete shrines, which are scattered across all the map, and that is the best part of the game. No matter where you go, you will always "progress" in the main quest, by getting stronger and having more chance of winning.
    There are also many side quests, and each one of them is different from the other, resulting in a unique experience for all of them, and removing the sense of already seen, that many open-world games have.
    The things you can do with the elements reminded me of the golden age of Far Cry 2, while the physics are well thought almost to a Half_life level.
    You can set fires in a forest and direct it with the wind of a fan through the enemies' campsite; during a storm, you can equip an iron blade to attract lighting and toss it near enemies when they are about to strike. There is so much potential in this game that you can spend hours just having fun with these two mechanics.
    The game isn't perfect as it has some bugs, and with the DLC, after upgrading the Master Sword to the max level, the game gets too easy; while the Master mode, unlocked at the end of the game, takes too long to kill one enemy, especially at the start of the game. Perhaps the biggest problem is the inventory; being able to carry 100 dishes that fully heal back all my HP makes the game way too easy (and I just need to collect some fruit to do that).
    Zelda Breath of the Wild it's an incredible experience, something that many game houses should take note of, sit down and understand, and try to elaborate in a new experience rather than just straight up copying its mechanics and gameplay, because no other games were able to.

    Amazing experience. Playing this game felt like I was 10 years old again, when I didn't know anything about games and their mechanics. The game forces you to think outside the box.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Warning: this has a lot of spoilers.
    This game is one of the best of the Zelda games, but it also has some bad things, though, and that’s why this is a nine for me. Note: this is personal opinion, some people may find some things that I consider bad as good things.
    Bad points:
    - The puzzles in game (usually kolog seeds puzzles, there is more variety on other puzzles) are too repetitive, always same mechanics in most of them, there are some of them that are creative, and so more difficult, though.
    - The bosses don’t have personality, they are just a kind of shadows that attack you, everyone of them with different attacks depending on what bosses they are but they are all the same. In other Zelda games, like Ocarina of Time, the bosses had different forms, being some of them a kind of clone of Link that is a ghost to a dragon that looks like the chinese ones. It would be really cool to see bosses like this in this game, but after all they are used to be things that only think in destroy, according to the game, so this can be good or bad depending in the opinion.

    Good points:
    - This is the first Zelda game where the characters talk (Link is the only exception, as he’s the only one that doesn’t talk), making the gamer feel more like if they were inside the game. Also, the traductions to different languages are perfect, in my opinion.
    - There are many things to do, many missions, many hidden places to discover, many places to visit, many monsters to attack, many other animals to interact with between others, so you can enjoy this game by many ways, trying to get the final boss, Ganon, faster or trying to complete everything in this game.
    - The cooking system has many varieties, you can find them by seeing a poster somewhere, a character telling you a recipe, trying all possible combinations of food, or even a recipe book. It’s also a good point that if you are in a cold place you’ll find things that are adapted to a cold climate and give you resistance to the very hot places, in the “normal” places, with “normal” climate, you’ll find insects, mushrooms, etc. that will give you other effects like speed or attack boost, and in hot climate same thing, but with the respective climate.
    - Something a bit similar to the last point, if there is a storm, the metalic items will attract lightning, so you will get struck by one, if you are in the volcano, the wooden items will break, etc.
    - The mechanics: a bomb kills all the fish in the zone the bomb is exploding, breaking trees can give the player access to other zones by acting like a bridge, with fire arrows you burn ropes, that will make something fall, like a ramp, giving (in the case it was a ramp) access to the player to get to wherever the ramp ended, bomb arrows don’t work when raining, wind makes the bombs move, if you explode a bomb near to something explosive, it will explode too, making a stronger explosion, between many others.
    - You can climb, swim, cook, walk, run, snowboard with shields, swimming faster consumes more energy, climbing faster consumes more energy, running consumes energy. You can’t dive, but the point I want to get to is that you have many ways to move.
    - The variety of clothes: there are many different clothes, all of them with different characteristics, depending on where you can find them, the amount of money or the difficulty of the puzzle and what do you need to get them, for example, clothes in Gerudo city are clothes with heat resistance and usually girl clothes. Clothes you earn by puzzles related to electricity give you resistance to lightnighs and electricity in general, not complete resistance, as if you have full electricity resistance a lightning might still hurt you. If you upgrade clothes, they will defend you more, with my personal best armor enemies hardly make me severe damage.
    - Last but not least (I would add more but there is a 5000 character limit), the graphics. Just by seeing the trailer you realize how fresh this game looks, in my opinion it looks so beautiful, I don’t think there are big light glitches, maybe small details, but that’s something that I can’t say with all games.
    Hope this helped you!    … Expand

    About this game I enjoyed the ability to insert the player, from the beginning, in a vast and wild nature that you don't feel is yours, but in which you have to know how to live and feed. BOTW, is for this reason, in the first place, a huge survival experience. You know there is a story to carry on but what there is between two points of the plot is something of the highest quality and fun beyond imagination.

    But not all that glitters is gold: I must to point out that I didn't fully appreciate the final part of the plot. The entire game, as many have emphasized, maintains a "low profile" plot because its focus is on the "wild" game play, but I do not think that this aspect could be a sufficient justification.

    The finale is too fast and is not able to create solid memories in the player.    … Expand

With that being said, they’re still an absolute blast and the puzzles and riddles are great. Speaking of puzzles, the 100+ shrines are quite fun too, if a little easy in most cases. The ONLY real gripe of mine is the durability system. You will often find multiple weapons and shields breaking within the same battle against just one or two enemies. It’s easily the most frustrating aspect of the game and the only thing that you’ll find actually detracting from the experience. If you have a Switch, BOTW is an absolute must-play.… Expand

It's a shame because even the somewhat less impressive parts (the Divine Beasts being the most common) are still well worth doing. I could talk about replayability, but I don't need to because there's just so much content that you don't even need a replay to play forever.
