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

    Breath of the Wild is a wonderfully ambitious game with so much to offer, but its ambition often gets in the way of becoming a more well-made game.

It is one of the most free games out there supporting so many different playstyles and approaches, yet has baffling decisions that restrict these freedoms. It is a game that respects your time and allows you to ignore key story beats and create your own adventure, yet tries to railroad players into playing through its narrative anyway, causing the game to feel hollow for anyone expecting a game similar to previous zelda titles, as the strong linear dungeon design and memorable plots that define that game are completely absent here. It is a game that tries to present puzzles to the player through its various shrines, only to make these puzzles feel half-baked and incomplete. Breath of the Wild is a game of contradictions; a game that will likely feel middling to those wanting a more traditional Zelda experience.

    Despite these criticisms, Breath of the Wild is one of the most enjoyable games I've ever played; its weak dungeon design and unmemorable plots make it easy for a player such as myself to simply ignore them and enjoy the freedom the game provides me, the various restrictions on one's freedom such as rain allow me to find new creative ways to find my freedom anyway by using the game's incredibly strong - and at the same time horribly broken - physics, the half-baked puzzles lend themselves to being broken and ignored entirely with enough creativity, with any two trips through many shrines not being the same for me between playthroughs as I slowly learn how to abuse the game's physics more and more to reach the end of these shrines in the strangest, most satisfying ways possible, and for those seeking a more traditional Zelda experience the game still provides an abundance of sidequests that allow my friends who don't have the same outlook as I do to sink 200+ hours into this game in a single playthrough. I myself have done the same, but over multiple playthroughs as I find new ways to bend this game to my will; this game that provides a sense of freedom and satisfaction unlike any other. This isn't even getting into the game's art and music, both of which are absolutely stunning; this game is the best that the Zelda series has ever looked, and the competition for a title like that is strong.

    This does not mean that the complaints are not warranted. Those complaints are what make this game worthy of a 7, despite my glowing review. But it is because of these complaints that a simple score cannot do this game justice; it may be a horribly flawed game with issues one could talk about for hours, but it's also one of the most ambitious games I've ever played, and is my favorite game currently on either of the consoles this game was released on for that reason.    … Expand

Playing botw is so surreal and entertaining, you feel so involved and interested in the game, and you never run out of stuff to do when there's seemingly endless tasks and missions to complete. The premise is so cool and the characters are great too. I also love the exploring and travelling aspect of the game. All the villages are so unique and cool with their own aesthetics and resources that you may need. Finding all the special horses and exploring the map is also very fun even though it's probably considered an optional aspect of the game. Overall I really really love this game and would recommend to anybody of any age or interests. There is definetly a reason it has a score of 97 from critics.

    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.

    It is a good game, I can see the amount of effort that the developers put into this game.

    The only thing I didn't like was the story. I've felt a lack of a good story, it is just too generic about saving a kingdom, also I despise mute protagonists.

    The gameplay is the best part of the game, the combat is awesome. The base is a "Souls Style of Combat" but it has some peculiarities that make it even more interesting. The weapons you use always will break there is nothing you can do to stop them to break so you need to change the weapons and each weapon has a different type of attack and some have special moves like light beams, that really incentive the player to try out different weapons and I really liked. It is cool you don't need to upgrade your weapon to use it, so you can pick up any weapon from the ground and you are ready to use it immediately.

    Another peculiarity is how intuitive is the combat, pretty much everything you think works out like you can make things fall over the enemies to kill them, you can throw them on the water, you can use stealth. It is really fun.

    The puzzles and the exploration are good, nothing at Mario Odyssey puzzles level but it is still better than the average puzzles you see in the games industry.    … Expand

    This is the most perfect game I’ve ever played, and worth buying the Nintendo Switch for this alone. One can easily sink 150+ hours in to completing the main game and expansion packs, and still be yearning for more when the game comes to an end. Caution, you may find yourself playing this until the sun comes up more than once!

I was totally wrong about that. it is a little bit simpler, but thats not a demerit , it's just the way it is.
    oh, btw, imo, BotW gives you the oportunity to fight one of the most epic final boss ever in your hand, wherever, even tho i recomend setting it down on the rack to play in a big ass 4k tv
    I'm so very impressed, really
    ps: I ALMOST gave this a 9 because of some really minor disconforts such as link not grabing the next weapon or shield in the inventory whenever one breaks wich can make you die in a most frustrating way, but come on, these things cant take the bright shine off of the game

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Unpopular opinion: Playing Breath of the Wild through for the first time and I don't get the hype. It is no where near the quality of ALTTP and OOT. Definitely not the best Zelda ever. The weapon durability system is stupid. Everything doesn't need to hit like a damn truck. The dungeons are pitifully short. Most of your playtime is spent running around and climbing. The mechanics are poorly explained. The food system is interesting but annoying. The tutorial plateau was the most fun part until I was met with the disappointment that was the rest of the game. It's like they created this huge open area and then added the other stuff last minute. Even Phantom Hourglass was better than this. I'd maybe place it 5th or 6th in the list, below ALTTP, OOT, LA, and Link Between Worlds. I get that they wanted to change up the formula, but this just isn't good.… Expand

    First things first, I had never played a Zelda game before. These impressions are those of a newcomer, not a diehard Zelda fan. Breath of the Wild won so many awards and is often referred to as one of the best games of the last decade and it is easy to be disappointed when the expectations are so high. Fortunately, BotW lived up to the hype.

    BotW offers a magical open-world experience.    First things first, I had never played a Zelda game before. These impressions are those of a newcomer, not a diehard Zelda fan. Breath of the Wild won so many awards and is often referred to as one of the best games of the last decade and it is easy to be disappointed when the expectations are so high. Fortunately, BotW lived up to the hype.

    BotW offers a magical open-world experience. Visually, it is breathtakingly beautiful. Controls are tight and satisfying. The most impressive thing about BotW, however, is how much this vast world is full of surprises. It is truly open-world, just walk in any direction and something will distract you. And chances are that distraction will lead you to a hidden surprise. On your journey, Link can interact with the environment in all sorts of crazy ways. Such interaction is not necessary to progress, but nevertheless an interesting touch that encourages creative thinking.

    In BotW, you can explore shrines and strengthen your character. You can gather plants and hunt animals, cook them which will grant you the same or even better (yet temporary) benefits than shrines do. There are plenty of puzzles both in shrines and dungeons (divine beasts) in the main storyline. In terms of puzzles, I enjoyed the former, but the divine beasts not so much. You can complete quests and get the rewards. BotW has weapon durability and I think it was a wise decision to implement this game mechanic to make sure the game doesn’t get repetitive fast (unlike many other open-world games).

    There will be a feeling of diminishing returns in BotW sometime after 50-60 hours of gameplay. You may start to feel like you’ve had enough of Zelda, despite all the efforts of BotW to offer unique experiences to different playstyles. My suggestion on that would be to enjoy the open world when you start the game and focus on the main quest as soon as you start feeling overwhelmed by all the quests and shrines. Do not aim for 100% completion.

    The only reason I don’t give it a 10 out of 10 is that Breath of the Wild does not speak to me on a personal level as much as some other “perfect games” do. However, it is still a perfect game, both technically and gameplaywise.

    Giro de tuerca a la saga sin perder su alma en ningún momento, la sensación de querer explorar porque el mero hecho de moverte te lo pide, el no obligarte a rebuscar lo ocurrido y ser directo o escabar en lo más profundo y conseguirlo todo, una joya, una maravilla.

Adictivo y con un arte cell shading espectacular (el reflejo del sol en la hierba alta es precioso). Cuando lo terminé, sentí un vacío en mí que pocos juegos podrán llenar. Lo único que hubiese añadido es algún tipo de indicador del daño que tiene cada arma (para saber cuál está más gastada, etc), un sistema de alimentación más realista (una barra de hambre al estilo survival) y menús un poco más dinámicos. De todas formas esto son pequeñeces que se vuelven insignificantes ante lo magnífico de esta obra de arte. Recomendadísimo.… Expand

    One of the best open world games of all time, and one of the best Zelda games of all time. There are so many possible things you can do to solve one problem. For example, there's one straightforward solution to a puzzle, but there are so many more other ways you can solve one problem through the game's many mechanics.

    Hype is powerful. Put an ungodly amount of hype behind a beloved franchise, that does a lot of things extremely well, and you get a bit of a hype monster. BotW is a wonderful game. Its open world is fantastic. It has a simple, yet engaging, combat system. There are a ton of excellent secrets hidden inside the world that gives an extended playthrough a little extra kick intermittently.Hype is powerful.

It has a simple, yet engaging, combat system. There are a ton of excellent secrets hidden inside the world that gives an extended playthrough a little extra kick intermittently. However, a large number of shrines feel samey, some of them are painfully simple, and some of them are solved in the exact same way as other shrines. Moreover, there are no real dungeons, the rain mechanic gets in the way of climbing (which is otherwise excellent), and forces you to just stop and wait for it to pass, the world starts to feel extremely empty once you have cleared all the towers and gotten around 60 shrines in, the story is bad, and the stealth missions are worse (thankfully they are few and far between). Ultimately, you have a great game, but one with a lot of problems. In a few years, this will be a Zelda title many people still think fondly of, but I think it will also receive a whole lot less single-minded worship.… Expand

The "stamina" mechanic feels put in just to lengthen the game. The maps mostly empty, with very slim ways to travel. Every tomb has the same dialogue at the end, the bosses are just reused, u might see 2 people in the game every 18hrs. The people u do get are interesting, along with their side quest but it's like none we're put in. If anyone else done something like this (no man sky) it would have been torn apart. Take the Zelda name of the game and tell me it would be the same... if u haven't played the game yet, I recommend trying the new o e when it comes out. I'd say it will have quest in it then.… Expand

The quiet music works to give the player a feeling of loneliness and hopelessness. There is a deep and dark feeling about the world that intrigues the player and urges them to keep going. The lack of invisible walls gives the player full control, and there is a shrine around every corner to draw the players to a new puzzle. The shrines are fantastic: being short and sweet, they are basic and to the point. The divine beasts, while somewhat underwhelming, are still a blast to explore. This game is so immersive, and the memories continue to give the players a story to look for throughout the vast world.… Expand

    The four "bigger" temples that are in the game are also very new and you really have to analize them and really think.

    The outdoor world is also incredible amazing and it feels like wherever you go you can find some minipuzzle or some secret wich can benefit you on your journey.

    For the first hours of the game i really didnt like the weapon-breaking system but the further you got in the game the more you learnd how to handle yourself in battle and you also get longer lasting weapons the longer you get into the game ( you can also unlock the master sword later wich does not break but have a cooldown instead)

    It feels like the most people who are downrating this game havent even got past the first zone (always complaining about the weapon-system) or people who played a zelda game for the very first time who doesnt understand or like the puzzle system in the shrines/temple..

    An absolutely amazing journey carried by organic gameplay diluted in a charming world, giving an incredible sense of wonder and adventure!

    Pros: - Zelda BOTW world manages to embody to almost perfection the "less is more" concept. Traversing the new open-world Hyrule has never been as rewarding and refreshing, as everything seems to have been crafted with such care. - Solid, simple,    An absolutely amazing journey carried by organic gameplay diluted in a charming world, giving an incredible sense of wonder and adventure!

    Pros:
    - Zelda BOTW world manages to embody to almost perfection the "less is more" concept.
    Traversing the new open-world Hyrule has never been as rewarding and refreshing, as everything seems to have been crafted with such care.
    - Solid, simple, yet efficient traversal mechanics; allowing for a great deal of freedom to explore that vast world.
    - Creative, complex, and organic gameplay mechanics overall, allowing for a load of player expression when it comes to fighting, solving puzzles, or interacting with the world itself.
    - Visually charming, with efficient cell shading effects and great art style overall.
    - Music themes and the overall sound design are great.
    - A decent deal of difficulty, especially early on.

    Cons:
    - Performance issues in some parts of the world.
    - The overall narrative (even if it never was a strong suit of the Zelda franchise) is very barebone for the most part. Ofc, it's not as convoluted or cryptic as a Souls Game, but it still lacks a bit of depth imo.
    Revolutions need to be achieved in more places than just gameplay and world design.    … Expand

    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]
