I didn't really appreciate some game mechanics like the absence of a weapons status (since them can be destroyed you don't really know which one is worth to kept), some special moves have the same buttons of others attack (ZL is used both to guard and for Daruk’s Protection, and long Y press for strong attack and for Urbosa’s Fury) and more in general the combat sistem could be improved. Some other thigs didn't get a proper tutorial so on early fase was vary hard to manage (horse mount and the mechanism to create potion and food). The game doesn't give a proper count of all the sub activities like shrine, you don't really know how many of them are missing unless you walk without a real dastination, in an area you could have done everything but the game didn't inform you. That's sad because the shrine puzzles were the funniest part of the game. From an aestetic and graphic point of view I've nothing to say, just awsome some times a slightery frame rate drop but nothing to impossible to face. The story is maybe to weak, I would have preferred more dept and diversify main missions, in the end you just need to do the same thing 4 times before facing the boss. Expand

    Great and fun game play and beautiful open world that you can endlessly explore! It is so perfectly designed for the switch as well. Nintendo knows their stuff! If there's anything I would change it would be to only make the story a bit less lackluster.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. BoTW is an amazing game. It's a very expansive open-world game that you can play at your own pace. 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. The main boss of the game is slightly underwhelming and way too easy compared to bosses like Thunderblight Ganon. However, it is a truly amazing game. Expand

The depth of the little things provided by each physical interaction, the physics themselves, the audio, the idle animations of enemies, all combine to a gestalt that not only far surpasses the 3 other 3d zelda games I've played (OoT, WW, and SS) but also makes this the most enjoyable open world experience I've engaged with. This is also one of the few games I've played where the issues other people have are invisible to me, I had to re read Jim Sterling's review (I view Jim as an idiot but it's hard to argue against the issues he has with this) and rewatch Matthew Matosis' review to remember what some of the issues were that this game has. So take my positive rating with a grain of salt I suppose Expand

    I don't think anything needs to be said, I mean, It's Breath of The Wild, Of Course It's Phenomenal. Sure, the story is kind of weak, especially after the amazing story told in Skyward Sword, and there has been some quality of life mods, like Second Wind for example, that has added tons of unofficial, but still amazing new content to the game, and it kind of makes the original game lookI don't think anything needs to be said, I mean, It's Breath of The Wild, Of Course It's Phenomenal. Sure, the story is kind of weak, especially after the amazing story told in Skyward Sword, and there has been some quality of life mods, like Second Wind for example, that has added tons of unofficial, but still amazing new content to the game, and it kind of makes the original game look pathetic. But I still love this game, It is a phenomenon that Nintendo has yet to top, It is their take on an open world game, and their answer to some of the greatest open world games of all time like The Elder Scrolls and The Witcher. This game is one of a kind, Nintendo has never made anything like it, even in Ocarina of Time or Twilight Princess, with huge maps to explore, you still had to do things in a certain order and couldn't just go off and do your own thing. That's one of the best parts of Breath of The Wild, It's a true open world Zelda game. Even though your supposed to be saving Hyrule, you can just go and do your own thing, go and have your own adventure. I don't know what it is, For some reason I just love screwing around in this world, doing my own thing. The feeling I get when playing this game is unlike any I've felt before, The games music might actually play into this, It's mostly very quiet with an occasional piano note, It may sound boring, but it actually makes going around Hyrule better. It's very ambient and peaceful, The only way I can describe it is "It's Freedom Like You Never Knew" I feel like this game is what I've been waiting for my entire life. The feeling I get from this can be described like this, it's just like when I'm Taking a walk, On a nice afternoon, It's very quiet, no one is really outside looking at me, I'm just alone, With some wind blowing. During this time, I'm just contemplating life, and not really caring about anything. In fact, Anything could happen, This could be the calm before the storm, and any minute now, things could go from 0 to 100 in the blink of an eye, people could be coming outside, all excited and loud. There's really no other game like this, The entire game is basically the calm before the storm, one minute nothings happening, then the next monsters come out of the ground and start beating you up. The textbook example of freedom should be described as roaming Hyrule in this game, It's truly is an incredible feeling. I just love this game, It just defines who I am, I wish I could be put into the world of Hyrule in this game. I've always just wanted this level of freedom in real life, and be completely devoid of any kind of labor, like school or anything that is hard or requires insane focus and dedication. This game just speaks to me more than anyone else I know. You should absolutely play this game if you haven't, It is a delight of an experience, That is Nintendo's best work to date. And with Breath of The Wild 2 coming out next year, There's no better time to get caught up. 10/10. Expand

You have all the tools from minute one -> hence the puzzles stay at the same level of complexity the whole game (very low complexity).

    I grew up with Zelda, I love it to bits and I think they should have retained more of the design pillars of the original. Instead of engaging 30-50 hours worth my time, I now have 100-200 hours of yet another grindey open-world game.

    Thanks but no thanks.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Эта игра порадовала меня на старте игры, предложив многие возможности, и я этому был рад, но потом я дошёл до сюжета игры. И был очень разочарован.

    Первое что хочется отметить это квесты. Сама сюжетная линия просто отстой, состоит из пяти квестов протяжённостью 30-50 часов. Растягивали это квесты разработчики как могли, а именно принеси-подай квесты, сказать, что это самый скучный способ растянуть игру - ничего не сказать. Я даже боюсь вспоминать квест по восстановлению воспоминаний по фотографиям, т.е. приди на место которое указано на фото. Фото вроде бы двенадцать, но, побывав во всех местах, тебе дают тринадцатую, и на этом моменте у меня поехала крыша. Доп. квесты - тоже самое, принеси это, приготовь то, скажи этому. Я также упомяну, что за все эти квесты почти ничего не дают. Также игра была сделана криворукими геймдизайнерами, что я имею ввиду? А то что вещи и окружение с которыми можно взаимодействовать, не то чтобы не выделяются, но не дают понять, что их можно передвигать и тд. Что выливается в непонимание при прохождении первого чудовища, и если быть чуть слеповатым, то можно не увидеть возможность взаимодействия с ним через карту, кто понял - тот понял. Мир в этой игре действительно большой и одновременно пустой, точек интереса совсем мало, что также говорит о лени разработчиков.

    Плюсы в этой игре тоже есть, но их настолько мало, что минусы с головой их перекрывают, но я о них скажу. Первое что упоминают в такой ситуации это физика игры, какая она хорошая, почти симуляция. Ну и всё.

    Подводя свой итог, я хочу выразить непонимание тех игроков, что ставят 10/10, эта игра максимум заслуживает пятёрку, но не больше. Вспомните, что вы говорите, когда видите какую-то игру в которой есть такие же квесты? Как минимум чуть-чуть играете, пока не надоест и бросаете, а как максимум сразу же выключаете потому, что тратить время на такое поделие не решитесь. Так вот друзья делайте выводы сами, решайте сами, и не попадайтесь на уловки игрожуров и издательств.

    Legend of Zelda: Breath of the wild might be one of the best game of the franchise. The music, the visual, the environment, and the story are really good. One of my issue with the game are the dungeons because they almost feel the same and the weapon that have a limited use. Otherwise the game is pretty good and is a must buy if you own a Nintendo Switch system.

The only good part of the game is the exploration for the sake of exploration, some puzzles of the exploration are cool, and some are not. The 4 main-temple are short but well made and fun, show what the generic temples could be... the Master sword dlc is faaaaaar better than the entire game. I'm not trolling here, Nintendo gave an incomplete game and people were all "wow, so different"... I was with really high hopes for the game being a zelda fan and the reviews, and got an meh experience... If you forget all about game and just go relax for the view and the sake of exploration you'll like this game, but the lack of variety of monsters and real rewards makes exploring nonrewarding, so its just exploration for the sake of exploration ... The game don't deserve the 1 note that I gave, it could be a 5 because the exploration for the sake of exploration, but I really feel strange knowing that this is a opinion of a minority and almost no one sees that way.... I wonder if the game was made by EA or other company if the reviews would be the same..... Expand

    It is simply one of the best games of all time after having played it for more than two years, without rushing, and leaving it to mature during times when it was very difficult or you did not have all the time it requires. Curiously, the same thing happened to me with the first Zelda I played in Super nes, another timeless masterpiece.

    It is for exquisite palates, to be enjoyed little by little, without being in a hurry to reach the end. Lots of quality content, both children and adults will like it, guaranteed.

    The artistic direction is implacable, they look like cartoons, the performance is constant, the motor moves everything with great ease, both in portable console mode and on the dock, although playing it on a 1080p TV is probably the best way, the soundtrack is good It could be better, more epic for my taste, the introduction of the open world is quite a statement of intent on how to do it right. It is not that it is huge, but that there is coherence, that there is always something to do, that it makes sense, something that is very difficult to achieve and that only a select few are capable of achieving. If something could be improved, it is to include in the game mechanics the possibility of playing cooperatively on the same machine or online.

    Nintendo, think of the siblings who could play together in this wonderful story of friendship, duty and love. They are very good values ​​that should be taught to the little ones. My 7 year old nephew is enjoying this game, and after having played Mario Odyssey, Luigis Mansion, Super Mario Kart, Animal Crossing and a few more, this is the one he has played the most and the one he liked the most. The pity is that it is a single player game and I see the twin sister who also likes it, but the protagonist is a boy.
    Nintendo, puts Princess Zelda or another female character as a co-op protagonist in these types of games.

    I honestly cannot for the life of me figure out why everyone loves this game so much. Progression has no red thread that it follows whatsoever, the survival and durability aspects are inexplicably tedious, shrines feel pointless and samey since they barely require any brainpower and are only there to give you farmable tokens so you have something to "do," it takes ages to travel from one place to another, and the world is pretty much dead outside of the settlements with nothing but small, random packs of the same enemies every 5 minutes which makes exploring the world about as gratifying as trying to swim in a puddle of mud. As someone who has played all Zelda games since Link's Awakening, I just cannot see why this game has gotten the cult following that it has. I want to enjoy it, and I've tried on multiple occasions, but I just can't. This is also nothing like Ocarina of Time, like, at all, aside from it being a third person Zelda game, so I have no idea why people are using it for comparison. It's more along the lines of Skyward Sword, both in terms of how it plays and how much of a low point it is in the franchise. While I want to applaud them for trying something new, all this game does it make me wish they never did.
