    This game is one of the best for switch and a must-to-have. You can discover the map and find out new things about the history of Hyrule.
    If you find a sword or another stuff, you can fight with enemies on the over-world.
    The villages make the game more especially.
    Finally the game ends with a exciting fight with ganon.
    I love this game and I think it's the best I've ever played before.

    Absolute Masterpiece, the artistic design is gorgeous, the gameplay is great, and the open world has so much to explore and to do.
    Thing like letting you go defeat Ganon from the very beginning of the game is such a cool addition that they didnt need to do, but all the little details like that makes this one of the best games ever created.

    Never have I played a game that does so much right AND so much wrong. For instance:

    No game does overworld traversal quite as good as this one. The tutorial where you cut down a tree to create a bridge to a raft and then use a leaf to produce wind to go to the other side blew my mind. But the rewards for traversing the overworld, other than finding shrines, are largely meaningless.    Never have I played a game that does so much right AND so much wrong. For instance:

    BOTW has such a wonderful physics engine, combined with such excellent array of abilities and weapons that combat is a real joy.

    On the other hand, since you can just PAUSE COMBAT AND HEAL TO FULL, there is no actual threat in this game other than being one shot. Which happens regularly and isnt remotely fun.

    And so on.

    Ultimately, Zelda was clearly influenced by other games to evolve in a positive way. But it abandoned some parts of old Zelda that it needed here, and it also didn't take as much from other game's design as it should have. This a very, very, mixed experience. Some of the highest highs for sure, but broken or outdated game design in other ways.    … Expand

    Great open world game! I went through the whole game and got an incredible unique experience! The game, of course, departed from the canons of the series, but, nevertheless, it is beautiful without that! The game will never get bored. A living world filled with everything possible! An unusual combat system is also present. An incredible game, I have not highlighted any disadvantages.

    Este se trata de, posiblemente, el mejor mundo abierto de la historia.

    La exploración es lo que los jugadores QUEREMOS hacer en este juego, porque presenta un mundo interesante a la vez que lleno de lugares interesantes, personajes, mazmorras (los aquí llamados "Santuarios"), y cosas por hacer.

    Las habilidades que puede hacer Link son muy interesantes y permiten hacer cosas increíbles, pasando de derrotar enemigos a base de bombas, a recorrer el mapa entero usando un árbol, o descubrir algún cofre enterrado en la arena de alguna playa.

    A pesar de salir en WII U y Nintendo Switch, el juego se ve perfecto, y las caídas de FPS no son tan molestas como se espera.

    Sin duda, uno de los mejores juegos de la historia, y por muchos fans, el mejor.    … Expand

    A maneira pela qual o jogo te fornece suas habilidades e te coloca em contato com o mundo aberto faz com que não existe um lugar de Hyrule que não desperte sua curiosidade! Os elementos clássicos e característicos da série foram reintrepretados de uma forma extremamente inovadora! O combate é fluído e continua sendo explorado por jogadores de longa data mesmo cinco anos após o lançamento! Tudo em "Breath of the Wild" impressiona, é o tipo de jogo que a gente fica bolado quando acaba porque não queria que acabasse...

    E, para mim, o melhor desse jogo está em sua história. A forma como a narrativa se desenvolve e a busca pelas memórias perdidas permite que a gente reconstrua a história de Hyrule na medida em que nos apegamos aos personagens durante a jogatina. É simplesmente fantástico!

Após 200 horas de jogo e ter zerado o game 2 vezes venho lhes apresentar meu review sobre The Legend of Zelda: Breath of The Wild Não preciso nem dizer que esse jogo foi feito com muito carinho, e podemos perceber isso de forma clara em sua trilha sonora, mapa gigantesco com 100% de fator exploração, mecânicas divertidas e funcionais, puzzles incríveis e muito bem planejados e etc.

    Gostaria de ressaltar como esse jogo preza muito pela liberdade de poder zera-lo da forma que bem entender. Esse é o jogo menos linear que ja joguei em toda minha vida, você tem um mapa gigantesco pra explorar, e 100% desse mapa é bem aproveitado com segredos, puzzles, coletaveis e além de belíssimos cenários impecáveis que demonstram o quão lindo esse jogo é, além de suas trilhas e músicas que foram planejadas de uma maneira incrível. Todas as músicas desse jogo são impressionantes e muito boas de se ouvir. Toda a saga das divine beasts instigam o jogador a ir atrás da história daquele local onde ela se encontra, onde temos npcs com história e que realmente passam uma impressão de uma comunidade viva.

    Poderia falar muito mais desse jogo, realmente impecável, e digo que vale muito a pena comprar o switch só por este jogo. Você vai se divertir e se emocionar por centenas de horas, pode ter certeza.    … Expand

    Breath of the Wild is an incredible game that encourages creativity in its large open world with diverse landscapes. It encourages player choice in its fun combat, creating a good risk and reward system for players to interact with. For example, a player can go up against a strong enemy and get good rewards for it, or they could fight low level enemies and get other, less valuable rewards.Breath of the Wild is an incredible game that encourages creativity in its large open world with diverse landscapes.

For example, a player can go up against a strong enemy and get good rewards for it, or they could fight low level enemies and get other, less valuable rewards. While this is a great game, it is not without its flaws. The game has a lack of guidance, which can be discouraging for some players. It also has a weapon breaking system which, while it encourages creativity, it also can take away strong weapons that the player has grown attached to. The game also lacks a deep story, it gives a background to the game and a vague description of the events that unfolded before the game and is built upon very little, if not at all. Certain areas can also have poor performance, but this is limited to only a couple areas.

    Pros:
    - Fun combat
    - Large filled open world
    - Good risk-reward

    Cons:
    - Lack of guidance
    - Weapon breaking can take away weapons you grow attached to
    - Lack of a deep story

The world is of course massive, but its extremely fun and rewarding to explore, with easily the best combat the series has had ever. The amount of fun exploits and tricks, make thisbgame easy to go back to. It has arguably the best tutorial in gaming history, and rewards you for exploring. The game is designed to keep you with a constant stream of challenges, cool things to see and do, with weapons. Weapons may break a lot, but never do you run out unless you try to run out. And the weapons you get are always upgrading as you progress. To think a game this big is so, surgically designed makes thisna joy to play. Tje issuesni have lie in tje bosses, especially the last one, but specifically the last ohase of the last boss. UGH. It doesnt take away from the experience too much though. Also as a final note i love the memories system. It makes you play the game to see more of the story, very cool.… Expand

    An excellent open world to explore, filled with interesting shrine challenges, fun puzzles to ponder and interesting characters to encounter. The physics-centric gameplay found both in the world and shrines is also extremely enjoyable to experiment with as well.

    Breath of the Wild's approach to open world design is a breath of fresh air when compared to many of the other open worlds that litter the AAA scene that often are lacking in content and meaningful reasons to explore.

    Some negatives I cannot overlook with Breath of the Wild, however, are the lacking "dungeons" found in the Divine Beasts. The "samey" interior design and relatively uninteresting boss designs stick out like a sore thumb when compared to the (usually) intricately designed dungeons and wildly varied bosses of the series' previous entries.

    Overall, Breath of the Wild is another brilliant game in the Zelda series' catalogue and is a must play for Switch owners.    … Expand

    I've played this game twice with over 200 hours in. To this day it's still one of the most incredible experiences I've ever had in gaming. The world is so beautiful and what makes it better is its tells you nothing so it makes you even more curious and the game allows for so much experimentation in the way you can play it. One of the best games of all time.

    The combat is superb. While I had a little issue with the durability system, I did like how it forced you to change styles and play differently. There are so many fun ways to approach combat that other games only have a fraction of. The four dungeons are kind of boring and generic and the final boss is painfully easy. The voice actors to come across as robotic which does suck me out of the game some. Those are the only problems I have with the game, everything else is near perfect.    … Expand

    Unique open world game, it's even hard to describe what tit is about, because of how smoothly it switches between exploration, puzzles, and action packed moments. At time can get a bit tedious, but for very brief moments, most of which are optional. Must play for every switch owner.

    A masterpiece of a game and a must-buy for any switch owners. The game gives you unlimited freedom, with you being able to go to the final boss straight away if you wanted to. The world never feels dull, small or empty, making the map very fun to explore. The story can feel a little lacking at times, but is sort of bittersweet and has a good plot.
    10/10.
