    Much better than botw, Ultrahand and physics are gorgeus, it feels like a zelda game not like botw, but I would love more clasic zelda games like ocarina, tp or ss and not huge open worlds all the time

    Vuelve a revolucionar la industria, es un gran juego, con las nuevas mecánicas puedes hacer de todo en este mundo inmenso de Hyrule. Hay tanta cosas que hacer que cuando uno tiene un objetivo a completar se desvía de este para completar las cosas que se encuentra en el camino

    Absolute masterpiece. People complaining about it being a DLC probably haven't played it.
    It's a sequel so obviously it takes place in the same Hyrule however they added the depths which is massive and the sky which isn't very big but a new place none the less. The surface is loaded with content far more than BOTW. The mechanics are great I liked BOTWs but I'm glad they did something new    Absolute masterpiece.

    I had fun with combat until 20% of the main story where you can get exponentionally stronger than every enemy in the game with easily accessible resources. Not to mention the questionable design choice of letting you refill as much HP as you have food in your bag.

The gameplay and the story are also extremely fun and entertaining, and you'll be able to enjoy the game regardless if you're an aged Zelda fan or a newcomer experiencing the saga for the first time. The only real problem this game has is the occasional lagging frame rate which, although it doesn't hinder the gameplay that much and won't occur often, does indeed feel heavy in monster-filled areas. Despite this, the frame rate isn't significantly worse than in Breath of the Wild, and it's not even close to bringing down any of the other merits this game has.

Totk improves on botw in every possible way. Traversal is immensely fun and rewarding with the new ultra hand abilities and the added verticality with sky islands. Combat is more challenging than before, but most enemies drop materials that can be used to enhance equipment, making it always worth your time to bring down a tough monster. Side quests are absolutely everywhere, and all are interesting and unique. The story is much more compelling than before. Even the soundtrack is better and more varied than botw. Overall, there’s vastly more content and more to do in this sequel. It makes botw look like a tech demo.

    While this is the most fun I’ve had with a game in years, it’s not without its flaws. The UI is a bit clunky, especially when cycling through weapons mid-combat. Many of the shrines feel too short, too obvious, are empty “Raru’s Blessing” rewards, or are tutorials for mechanics that I learned 30 hours ago. I do miss the traditional Zelda dungeons of TP, WW, and SS, but I somewhat understand the need for more open dungeons in this game given the wealth of freedom granted by its mechanics. They could have taken away all of Link’s runes for a dungeon, but what fun is that? My last, and most forgivable, complaint is the game’s performance. The Switch is an outdated piece of hardware, and the way it struggles to run totk shows. But personally, the hiccups in fps didn’t bother me all that much. For others it certainly will: I’d recommend emulating the game at 60 fps.

    Tears of The Kingdom is not a perfect game, but it reaches closer to perfection than any other game that I’ve played to date. I’m currently 90 hours into the game, but I feel like I’ve only scratched the surface of what this game has to offer.    … Expand

The Legend of zelda: Tears of the kingdom, sin duda alguna es una gran secuela, respeta y guarda mecánicas del botw y hasta las mejora, además su mundo, ahora mas extenso te incita a perderte y explorar las bastas tierras de hyrule. También mejora otros aspectos como los jefes que sin duda alguna se nota que la gran N puso empeño y creatividad al diseñarlos, los nuevos monstruos también son algo digno de admirar pues también regresan algunas criaturas de juegos anteriores. Las nuevas habilidades de Link hace que puedas abrirte camino de infinitas maneras. Y la historia perfectamente es lo que mas destaca (desde mi punto de vista) pues tiene trama tan seria como la de Majora's mask y el desarrollo de personaje como Rauru, Sonnia, Ganondorf etc. Sin duda alguna dan a entender que este juego tiene muchas pero que muchísimas posibilidades de ganar el GOTY.… Expand

    TOTK redefines the meaning of a perfect video game. Its predecessor, BOTW was for me the best single player game of all time until TOTK arrived. Both games are great, but TOTK somehow improves the perfect game and came to innovate with a massive map (explore skies, land and caves underground), new abilities and great puzzles.

    Probably haven't get the paraglider or even still holding that broken ass master sword. because it didn't indicate where is the first three shrine I understand people who only play games that tell you where to go and players that only play game with guides will get frustrated. what I can say is the fun haven't started and they are here to reviewing the game
    Reused material and BOTW DLC
    I don't think those people actually explore the map much, every side village have changed some finished building some need to rebuild. not to mention that BOTW doesn't even have caves its all empty mountain, IMO BOTW feels more empty after I play TOTK. and the depth and the sky Island its just fun.
    The Price
    nothing much to say around here, I think the game is worth the price.
    Graphics
    I only have fps drop when I use ultra hand to move around but tbh I rarely need to walk around with a ultra hand active.
    weapons
    You can fix weapons and have New weapon gain from the depth So I think people just doesn't discover that they can do things like this, which is part of the gameplay to discover.
    personal tips
    If you are a sheep who can't do anything without a guide yes this game will get bored to you.

Ultrahand, fuse, ascend, and rewind are all amazing.

Ascend and rewind are straightforward, Ascend can allow you to teleport up on higher surfaces, which makes exploring a lot easier and less frustrating at some points. Rewind is kind of like stasis in Breath of the Wild, but instead of freezing time, it rewinds time. Tears of the Kingdom allows for limitless creativity and problem-solving. Every NPC feels real which makes the world feel alive. Every village in the game has a new thing to it (Rito Village has a snowstorm, Lurelin Village has been taken over by pirates.) The four dungeons in the game have been upgraded and are alot better than Breath of the Wild's divine beasts. The game is also a lot harder than Breath of the Wild, though once you play for a while and upgrade weapons and armor, it gets easier. The soundtrack is also amazing, it really hits the spot.

O jogo é incrível, Vaz tudo que seu antecessor fez, e sinceramente a maioria das coisas melhor, indico esse jogo pra 2 tipos de jogadores, fãs da franquia, e quem não jogou Zelda BOTW, já que mesmo melhorando tudo, é visível que a estrutura é a mesma, mesmo sistema de 4 masmorras, ir lá e livrar tribo x de um problema causado pela volta de ganon, existe problemas de performance e as texturas ficam borradas em alguns momentos do jogo, uma reclamação pra fazer são os sábios, já que a mecânica deles é bem quebrada, você constantemente ativa-os sem querer, colocar o mesmo botão pra ativar todos, não foi uma escolha tão inteligente e deveria ser melhorado futuramente, porem oque há de bom no jogo ? É totalmente livre, deixa você explorar do jeito que quiser, apesar das masmorras terem repetido o anterior, foram melhoradas, tendo visuais completamente diferentes, chefões totalmente diferentes, porem a resolução dos problemas são extremamente simples, já as side Quest, são muito divertidas e te dão boas recompensas, não terminei o jogo ainda, tenho 250 horas, e fiz aproximadamente 50%, amei cada segundo, os problemas nesse jogo são visíveis, e devem sim ser coitados, porem existe diversos pontos positivos, como por exemplo, a falta de loading ao descer do céu, ou descer para as profundezas, tocando no assunto, os céus e as profundezas foram adicionados, e fazem a exploração ser muito mais interessante, tem adições na superfície, além de diversos novos inimigos, como o horroblim, gleock, grande bokoblim, entre outros, as mecânicas desse jogo, são incríveis, o fuse, a ultrahand e o acend, fazem com que sua imaginação flua, e te dá diversas maneiras de resolver problemas, falando em resolução de problemas, os santuários, apesar de serem parecidos com o anterior, me pareceu uma maneira de incentivar o jogador a ser criativo, já que há diversas maneiras de resolvê-los graças as novas habilidades, você pode pensar que fez errado, mas não existe certo ou errado nesse jogo, sua criatividade diz oque fazer, e você faz, simplesmente maravilhoso, a história ficou muito mais interessante, e o final é emocionante a ponto de fazer qualquer casca grossa chorar que nem um bebê, esse jogo, faz o seu antecessor parecer uma versão beta, ou só um gostinho do que viria pela frente, já que esse jogo, faz com que você seja mais livre do que nunca, porem, mesmo com diversas melhorias, não poderia dar 10, ao menos, não com os problemas que citei, os gráficos não são tão importantes pra mim, mas a queda de FPS pode quebrar a imersão em alguns momentos, além de ser bem perceptível ao usar o ultrahand ou entrar em algum lugar muito pesado, mas mesmo sendo um problema grave, devo dar os parabéns a Nintendo por conseguir rodar esse jogo em um console tão ultrapassado. Minha conclusão é que, jogue, se você gostou do anterior este vai te deixar abismado, o jeito que tudo aqui é expandido, e simplesmente maravilhoso, o final é lindo o começo é lindo tudo aqui é lindo, pra quem realmente gosta de explorar, este jogo é um prato cheio, personagens incríveis, história melhorada, chefões visualmente impecáveis, e o jeito que esse jogo faz com que a experiência seja única pra cada pessoa, é simplesmente um jogo que facilmente entra na lista de melhores jogos já feitos, pelo menos essa é minha opinião!… Expand

    A good entry to the Zelda series, not revolutionary like Breath of the Wild, but still quite fun. For me it’s held back by the cumbersome archery UI where you pause the action to scroll through arrow fusions for several seconds each time you fire, and the awkward companion powers which are more finnicky to use since the require interacting with you companions themselves to activate.

    This game cribs a lot of its gameplay and content from Breath of the Wild and in terms of the things it adds, it tends to miss as much as it hits. These drawbacks don’t stop it from still being a pretty good game though.    … Expand

    I loved BotW but this game is making BotW looking like a tech demo. I never saw so much creativity and so much wonder in a video game. The Legend of Zelda Tears of the Kingdom is one of the best games I've ever played and might be my pick for the game of the decade 2021-2030.

    Its crazy. You play 1 hour and you are like "yeah its great, improves what BotW did. Then u go to the first main point and realise you are playing something historic. Only Elden Ring made me feel this great, and Zelda is even better. Best game of the decade?

    Builds off the floor that Breath of the Wild established. It's still more of the same, and perhaps is TOO similar. A lot of verticality & depth to exploration, Definitely is just a fun sandbox that's slightly better than the predecessor, and really why I can't rate it higher is because it's nothing "new" but purely a more complete BotW.

    Brilliant!

    In the opening segments of this game, after dropping from the Great Sky Islands back to the familiarity of the vast green fields of Hyrule, I was hit with an unsettling feeling that ‘Tears of the Kingdom’ may not be unique enough to stand apart as its own unique experience from ‘Breath of the Wild’, and that much of this game may feel like retreading trodden ground.    Brilliant!

    Fortunately however, as the game progressed it unveiled more and more of its secrets and sheer abundance of content, winning me over more and more with how much it develops and builds upon every single aspect of ‘Breath of the Wild’ to a staggering degree. My issues regarding its similarities to ‘Breath of the Wild’ quickly faded away, and in it’s wake I was left with a magical wonder and so many discoveries that I was wondering how the game could possibly just keep going.

    Wash away any reservations you have for ‘Tears of the Kingdom’, because this game delivers on every aspect you could hope for, once again delivering an all time great to a series that is chock full of them and another potential “Game of the decade” contender.

    I could probably write an entire thesis on why this game is a masterpiece, but honestly it wouldn't do it justice so I will just say that you have to play it.

    Easily one of my top 10 games of all time. Everyone assumed it would be the same map as BOTW with a new story, but it's so, so much more than that. Everything that was great about BOTW was tuned expertly and (almost) everything annoying was fixed. The ending is much more satisfying than BOTW also. Highly recommended.

    You know it's good when hours just disappear off the clock for you. I started at 3pm the other day and looked up for the first time expecting 30min to have gone by. WRONG! Two hours had gone by. I'm loving it thus far, but I've only scratched the surface. Don't believe the naysayer red reviews. Not sure what childhood trauma they went through, but it wasn't BOTW's or TOTK's fault. Grow down!
