    名副其实的神作，一周目自己一点点探索这片大陆，让人一直保持着对这个世界的好奇，跟随每一个神庙慢慢开扩自己的地图，在各地寻找宝箱和呀哈哈，是真实的让人感到最简单的快乐。在做完除了盖侬的其他主线任务时，心里全是一种怅然若失的感觉，而且看了别人的介绍后意识到自己还有太多东西没见到了，果断开启二周目地毯式的走遍海拉鲁，不过可以的话还是希望能够再有一次一周目的快乐啊。
    音乐剧情等各方面可以说是五边形战士，现在即将打完二周目就等续作了。真的就是印证了他们说的那句话，一个好的游戏打完后就像是失去了一个世界    名副其实的神作，一周目自己一点点探索这片大陆，让人一直保持着对这个世界的好奇，跟随每一个神庙慢慢开扩自己的地图，在各地寻找宝箱和呀哈哈，是真实的让人感到最简单的快乐。在做完除了盖侬的其他主线任务时，心里全是一种怅然若失的感觉，而且看了别人的介绍后意识到自己还有太多东西没见到了，果断开启二周目地毯式的走遍海拉鲁，不过可以的话还是希望能够再有一次一周目的快乐啊。

    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. The story is simple, but it will fit perfectly into the atmosphere of the game where not only the mechanics are a mystery, but also history.

    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

Zelda has always been prominent on the market and is one of the most critically acclaimed games in recent memory. Rather than creating waypoints and forcing players to trek the barren world with nothing inside, it spreads the content throughout the map facilitating getting lost and creating one's own experiences. However, it would be a surface level observation to classify the game as perfect and as time has progressed the game has aged poorly. My first complaint lies in the shrines, having many mini-dungeons instead of half a dozen big ones is a new direction for the series and while some are fun, short challenges, others feel boring, monotonous or easily cheesed. Divine beasts are nice reliefs but if they are actually on par with previous areas is debatable and I'd argue against it. My next issue is the story and dialogue, with LoZ being Nintendo's 'story game' it's disappointing seeing it being as average as it always has been and cutscenes which look visually stunning are off-put by Link yet again being a grunting, emotional wall per usual. It's definitely time to give Link a voice and is what I'm hoping for most in the remake actually being achieved well. Enemy variety is small but only a minor complaint due to the versatility of the minimal monsters available as well as their hilarious interactions. All of these are only minor in comparison to the next issue: replayability. The Great Plateau is an hour-long tutorial if you want to make sure to pick up all the items around the place and can never be skipped and if you're not trying to speedrun the game, most runs continue similarly (go to kakariko and see impa, run all the way to hateno, go back and then take on your divine beast of choice after maybe tackling a couple of shrines) and pulls you out of the experience for the first couple hours. However, once you leave the early game, it presents you with a magical adventure coupled with the childlike whimsicality contrasted by the edge that makes Zelda so entertaining.

    THE LEGEND OF ZELDA: BREATH OF THE WILD

    This game, no... The game has captivated me in a special way, the design of its map is igneous and addictive, the same would be said of its combats, puzzles, rewards and characters, although it has moved away from the classic gameplay of zelda did it for the better, sometimes changes are necessary, and this is an outstanding example

    I don't get the hype.

    This was my first Zelda game and I had high expectations for obvious reasons. And to be honest, other than the gameplay and art style this is a pretty empty game with virtually no story. I am pretty confused why anyone would consider this the greatest game of all time. You literally have to do a picture quest if you want to get any semblance of a story or    I don't get the hype.

    About this game I have heard a lot and I think that the high level reviews of common users and specialized critics are reasonable. What perhaps was not emphasized enough is this game manages to impress even after many years (I play it since March 2023) and it never appears as a six years old game... especially after playing such and horrible and low-quality game as Scarlet and Violet.About this game I have heard a lot and I think that the high level reviews of common users and specialized critics are reasonable.

    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

The open world is fantastic, if a little underwhelming in terms of the number of interactions with actually interesting characters. Side quests are plentiful but many of them are a little, well, lame, and several have anticlimactic conclusions. 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

Apartado artístico que a dia de hoy, me sigue pareciendo el mas bonito, graficos que explotan las capacidades de la consola a la que pertenece, siendo un juego de salida de consola y que a dia de hoy no ha sido desbancado de esa posición. En lo jugable es una delicia, la exploración es extremadamente satisfactoria y el juego logra provocar cada 10 segundos la curiosidad de que habrá si sigo este camino, detrás de esa montaña o en ese acantilado. Una minuscula pega, quizá la unica junto con los jefes de cada bestia divina, es el desgaste de las armas, excesivamente rápido aunque entiendo su finalidad. La historia es sencilla pero muy bien realizada y con momentos que favorecen la inmersión en el juego, breve y presentada de tal manera que no entorpezca el eje central del juego, la exploración y sensación de aventura. Contenido para aburrir, un mundo inmenso que espera ser descubierto a manos de Link con su caballo y la paravela, que no nos falte nunca la paravela.… Expand

    You know that feeling you get when you play Dark Souls and there's a small cliff that you wish you could jump over but you can't. Or maybe you get that feeling from a different game like old Zelda games. This game full fills that feeling. While it might not have the best combat or dungeons, the open world is and freedom the game gives you makes up for it.

    If you have trouble with finishing the games then this is the one for you.

    Big empty lifeless world, combat no so exciting, i do not like the concept of broken shields and weapons , the climbing system which is not logic and against physicses graphics which is not astonishing or gorgeous it looks like ipad games , and link the protagonist who do not talk !!! No voice acting for link how come a game like this the protagonist do not talk currently one of the most important aspects of the best games ever made is the protagonist and voice acting of the character that makes us fall in love with games like arthur morgan or kratos , nathan drake and many many characters. zelda botw is good game but not S tier or best ever or what so ever you call it you can not put it besides red dead redemption 2 or god of war, last of us or many many games who are much better on many aspects and again i am not telling it is a bad game i am playstation fan but i really like to explore many and different games from the playstation system it is a really good game but not that much as most of you claiming it is the best ever or the 10/10 reviews i think it’s fair review 8 or 8.5    … Expand

You can spend an eternity finding all the little secrets of this game. I enjoyed all the puzzles and the world building. The only thing that could use a little adjusting is how often your weapons break. The world and side stories is more then enough to carry this one inconvenience.    … Expand

    The only complaints i would have is that some of the shrines feel a little bit repetitive but nothing truly annoying, the desert and snowy areas have sections that Do feel kind of empty and the Korok forest makes the game run at like less than 20 FPS. But it didn't ruin the overall experience.
