    La espera a valido completamente la pena, han tomado todo lo bueno de botw y lo han mejorado por 100, va estable a 30fps en un 98%. Luego nos tenemos que creer a los de gamefreak diciendo que la switch no da jajaja.

    It has everything good about its predecessor, it's nostalgic to a certain point, once again I feel moved by a game, just like with the prequel, it has many changes for the better, the story is exceptional, the gameplay is basically the same and the new mechanics are amazing. I love it.

Yes the graphics are terrible lol but its still fun and hopefully when switch 2 comes out in 2024 it will run a lot better. If you like BOTW then you will love this game , just give it some time to learn the new mechanics

E este último mapa referido sofreu mudanças significativas e pra melhor. Mudança na jogabilidade dispensa comentários.
    Outra coisa que vi gente falando é que o jogo ta mais feio que o primeiro. Outra grande mentira. Já sobre a narrativa do game pra mim ta bem melhor que o primeiro. A gama de possibilidades no game se amplificaram e de modo consistente. Nota 10. Esse jogo é descomunal de bom!
    Tudo bem não gostar de Zelda, é do gosto de cada um. Eu mesmo não gosto de jogos souls-like e to ok com isso, mas não saio por aí dando hate em algo que pra muita gente significa muito.
    No entanto não faz sentido desmerecer ou superestimar uma franquia nos seus já 37 anos de existência só pq ela desbancou seu joguinho favorito. Nota 0? Eu acho que nem o mineirinho adventures levaria um 0. Para o jogo ser 0 ele teria que falhar miseravelmente ou mesmo nem abrir quando desse comando.    … Expand

The performance isn’t great, but it’s largely serviceable and it will likely continue to improve with future updates, but for now it is completely playable. I also understand that if you didn’t like breath of the wild, this probably won’t be your cup of tea either, as it largely seems to use many of the same design philosophies. What I can’t understand is people calling this game lazy. Nintendo is many things, but one thing they are not—lazy developers, especially when it comes to their big IPs. From what I’ve come to understand, the radical shift to the Zelda formula found in BOTW wasn’t necessarily a result of the fans getting tired of the Zelda formula (though many were at the time), but rather it was the developers at Nintendo who got sick of the Zelda formula. Breath of the wild was a passion project and I could feel their passion as I played it. I feel that same passion again in this game as I explore the sky islands, the depths, the caves, and so much more that the developers have lovingly created for us. I was concerned about this game having a substantial amount of new content above what breath of the wild had. I was afraid that the game would be like “DLC”. But as the game was approaching release I realized that even if the game was just glorified DLC, and even if the biggest thing it accomplished would be to give me a new perspective of this Hyrule that I fell in love with in BOTW, I would be happy. So far, I am happy to report that Tears of the Kingdom has gone above and beyond that mark for me and has created a unique experience that I am really enjoying. Frankly, the amount of new content is a bit overwhelming even!

    It seems hasty to me that there are some giving a game of this scope a 0/10 the day after it comes out. This game might take 50-100 hours to appreciate all that it has to offer. And even after completion, it takes serious reflection to consider the effect of a game like this. I’m all for people having their own opinions, but I’m not as happy when I see people make hasty generalizations and parrot what they have seen or heard from others around them. This game deserves more critical thinking. So far, I’m loving this game. I haven’t had nearly enough time to form a true opinion about it, and I will change my score if my feelings on the game change. But for now 10/10, great game.    … Expand

    Many of Botw weaknesses, like the weapon system or climbing mechanics got improved and actually turned into major strengths, making it easier and more rewarding to explore Hyrule and challenge all kinds of enemies.
    The 4 new main abilities of Link manage to replace the old ones perfectly. They also create many new ways for players to solve puzzles, with most of the shrines being solvable in a much more creative manner than the intended one.
    While the base game had some performance issues, the day-one patch fixed them and so far I have not experienced any frame drops that impacted my gameplay.
    Because of all of this, I think that the game overcame the predictions of just being a Botw DLC by a lot. It offers way more content than its predecessor, probably more than twice as much and discovering this content makes more fun than ever before. This game is undoubtedly a contender for being one of the best games of all time.    … Expand

Better story, better options to move around the map, more stuff to do, this game has it all. The Fuse and Ultrahand abilities keep the game fresh, so every adventure or quest I go on feels unique. Plus the sheer amount of content in this game is insane. In BOTW there was quite a bit of empty space where there was just nothing going on. However, in TOTK, it feels like there’s always something going on wherever you go. The ground level itself feels so much more involved than in BOTW. There’s npcs all over the place to talk to and help out. The shrines seem a bit more sparing on the surface than in BOTW since they are split between the sky and the surface, but that’s made up for by everything else that there is on the surface. Ultrahand allows for some great quests and shrines that BOTW can’t even compare to. Your time will be well spent pretty much anywhere you go on the surface. And if you find yourself lost about what to do next, there’s always the sky islands and the depths. There’s literally always something to do in this game, and I don’t foresee myself 100%ing this game for months.… Expand

The game is a true masterpiece that sets a new standard for open-world games, and it's no surprise that it's widely regarded as one of the best games ever made.

    What makes totk so special is the sense of freedom it offers. You're free to explore the world at your own pace, discovering hidden secrets and uncovering the mysteries of Hyrule. The game's mechanics are intuitive and innovative, making it easy to pick up and play, but with enough depth to keep you engaged for hours on end.

    The game's visuals are stunning, with a vibrant art style that's both beautiful and immersive. The music is equally impressive, with a sweeping orchestral score that perfectly captures the sense of adventure and discovery.

    But what really sets totk apart is the attention to detail. Every corner of the world is filled with unique characters, hidden treasures, and memorable moments. The game's puzzles are challenging yet rewarding, and the combat is satisfyingly strategic.

    Overall, totk is the best game I've ever played. It's a game that offers endless hours of entertainment, with a sense of freedom and adventure that's rarely seen in modern gaming. If you haven't played it yet, I highly recommend giving it a try.    … Expand

At the time, the game absolutely grabbed me by the neck; it took hold of me; the sense was absolutely overwhelming. Through the years, I had never felt that feeling again. I’d played other video games, and gone through life’s adventures on the way. Games like Mario Kart 64, Soul Caliber, Quake III (think I’m old yet?), Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind (this game was special- it came very close), Wii games, Skyward Sword. Is this list complete? Not even close. I’ve lived through the golden age(s) of gaming.

    And then life meandered on. I learned guitar. Joined a few bands. I played sports. Got a bachelor’s; got a doctorate; moved up the corporate ladder. Got back in shape. Got married. Bought a house. Sold it. Bought another house. Life goes on.

    In other words, I got way too busy for gaming. But deep down, I missed it. Then one day, I saw a YouTube ad for Breath of the Wild. It just so happened that after all of this insanity, I had also developed a crippling case of clinical depression I was trying to deal with. It was pretty bad. BOTW gave me just a hint of that old feeling I had had many, many, years ago. And I simply had to try it! So I bought a used Switch on Ebay. And there it was! That old feeling from 30 years ago! Wow. My gaming life had returned after a 15+ year lapse. And I’m doing much, much, better. TOTK is a masterpiece. Are you kidding me? It’s an all time great just like BOTW. Some people just don’t appreciate beautiful art. Get it. BUY IT! Don’t listen to the mindless haters. A “zero” rating? Are you kidding me?

Yo creo que es una secuela perfecta que deja a su antecesor como un péquela probadita de lo que se puede llegar hacer en un mundo abierto desde la posibilidad de hacer los puzzles de la manera que más se te antoje y el hecho de no obligarte a seguir un historia lineal lo hace perfecto ya que los únicos límites de este juego pueden ser las pequeñas bajas de FPS y tu imaginación la historia es un poco mejor que la anterior por eso yo creo que Zelda Tears of the kingdom es ta a la altura de competir por el goty ya que mucha gente lo desmerita por los gráficos pero entrando un poco en detalle las más morras se sienten muy parecidas a las bestias y las cantidad de islas es un poco decepcionante pero cuando tienes un mapa terrestre, subterráneo y aéreo todo eso queda atrás y por eso y más para mí este Zelda es un 10/10… Expand
