    Simply one of the best games ever! The waiting time was worthy! Since BOTW, the way that developers developed a wide world with many possibilities, it will give you a lot of time to explore the world of Hyrule.

    Do NOT let the weirdos on here tell you this game is anything lower than an 8. Metacritic stop letting people review bomb games. This is why nobody respects this site. You let a bunch of toddlers who are mad that there game didn't review as high bomb the reviews. So do better.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The legend of zelda tears of the kingdom é um daqueles jogos onde vc joga e entende que jogos podem ser mais que jogos, esse sentimento está em quase todos os jogos da franquia ,mas qual a diferença dele para os outros jogos da franquia ,ou melhor o seu antecessor breath of the wild ? Tears é uma expansão de botw é realmente uma sequencia ,então se vc quer algo de diferente do botw então o jogo não é para vc ,o jogo continua tendo shrines , o mesmo metodo de contar historia e a mecanica de combate com algumas implementações novas ,porem um dos maiores diferenciais desse jogo pro seu antecessor é os poderes novos que vira o jogador novo e os jogadores antigos da serie de cabeça pra baixo, nunca se foi tão divertido e bem implementado suas mecanicas com um mundo como esse jogo é, esse jogo te desafiar a pensar de maneira criativa usando as ferramentas que ele te dá e de forma diferente de botw, onde agora o processo de montar seu veiculo ou bigiganga pra te divertir pra camba ao se sentir um genio.
    Mas é só isso ? então não, tears corrige todos os problemas de botw ,poucos inimigos ? não mais ,mundo vazio ? não mais.
    Mas o mapa é o mesmo ? sim , porem não parece nada ,o mapa foi modificado de um jeito que vc sabe que está em um lugar antigo de botw quando vê um ponto forte de referencia, mas se olhar tudo ao seu redor esta diferente e com coisas diferentes para fazer. Alem que ha novidades que acresentam o mapa tanto para cima ,quanto para baixo.
    A novidade em relação a itens ? sim , o jogo tá recheado de itens novos e que te dá colecionaveis novos e moedas de trocas novas para incresentar mais progressão para suas novas ferramentas.
    E a performance ? No switch ela tá muito boa ,o fps cai um pouco ao usar a mecanica de construção quando sua criação tem muitos objetos , mas não é algo que incomode, na verdade o mais impressionante é quando vc sobe para os ceus ou desce e desce para mapas mais abaixo e não há loading ou até quedas ao transitar entre os 3 niveis diferentes de mapa , A Nintedo fez bruxaria pra otimizar isso.
    No geral temos um jogo que faz com que Zelda breath of wild pareça um beta ,ele melhora tudo e incresenta coisas ainda melhores, definitivamente não há nada melhor do que esse jogo dentro desse genero e não tem nenhum jogo que chega perto de fazer oque ele faz.
    Se vc tem um switch ou pc gamer vá jogar ,fassa esse favor pra si mesmo.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. It is an awesome game, I am so far only on the first dungeon, but it is a vast improvement on Breath of the Wild, and that is one of the best games that was ever made. For example, it sort of added crafting mechanics, which players have always been asking for in Botw. It also made the return of traditional more themed dungeons, this makes it a lot more fun, I also quite enjoyed getting to use the champions decedents, and I was positively surprised at how useful they were, like it wasn't just there for the decor, it was actually fighting, and the ability that I got to use so far was very helpful. Finally, I really like the 4 abilities that I have unlocked so far (recall, ascend, fuse, and ultrahand), they are a ton of fun to play with, and it adds a creative aspect to the game. Furthermore, combining all four abilities makes it incredibly good, especially for traversing the land, which, contrary to what some people may want you to believe, was vastly expended, with a vast underground, and a lot of sky traversal. In conclusion, it is an awesome game, and it is totally worth the price!… Expand

The land is completely different, there‘s a new world up there and a new world down below. What are you all talking about? 12-year-olds hating because they can‘t have fun anymore…nothing more.

    Este juego es increíble, ya le he echado más de 100 horas de juego y no me entran ganas de rushearmelo e ir por Ganondorf sino seguir explorando, con todas las nuevas mecánicas implementadas este juego se siente mucho más completo que su precuela, el BOTW, la cantidad de cosas que hay en el mapa y como te entretienes con cualquiera de ellas es fascinante, simplemente un excelente juego.

    Beautiful game with awesome mechanics.
    Don't let anyone tell you this game isn't worth it or that it's just a DLC for Breath of the Wild, thisbis a worthy sequel easily surpassing the first entry with a lot of innovation.

    After playing Breath of the Wild, I was sad. I was sad because I never thought I would ever have a gaming experience like this ever again. Any sequel to this game was doomed to fail, right?

    I was wrong. TOTK is a masterpiece. All I can say is go play it, experience it for yourself. If you loved BOTW as much as I did, oh boy, hope you have an extra 500 hours to spare.

    El Juego es una locura en más de un aspecto, a pesar de ser un juego para una consola híbrida de hace 6 años todo lo que hacía bien su antecesor (Breath of the wild) en esta secuela se ve llevado a su máxima expresión al grado de incluso superar todo.

    Una secuela directa que cambia tantisimas cosas que realmente se convierte en un juego totalmente nuevo y ajeno al anterior, algo similar a    El Juego es una locura en más de un aspecto, a pesar de ser un juego para una consola híbrida de hace 6 años todo lo que hacía bien su antecesor (Breath of the wild) en esta secuela se ve llevado a su máxima expresión al grado de incluso superar todo.

    Una secuela directa que cambia tantisimas cosas que realmente se convierte en un juego totalmente nuevo y ajeno al anterior, algo similar a lo ocurrido con "Ocarina of time y Majora's Mask).

    Tears of the kingdom es una propuesta revolucionaria que no tiene miedo a competir contra gráficos fotorealistas o consolas súper potentes ya que tanto su sistema de mecánicas, su mundo tan rico y lleno de vida, su banda Sonora excelente y su apartado de artistico, crean un mundo único que te sumergirá de lleno desde el segundo uno.

    Tras 70 horas de juego aún se siente que no has visto ni una pequeña parte de todo lo que te ofrece el juego y la historia es exelente.

    No obstante no puedo decir que el juego sea perfecto aunque para mi lo sea, se tiene que ser objetivo al dar una reseña y su punto más débil y en mi opinión es el único error que tiene es la potencia de la consola, a pesar de eso Nintendo junto al equipo de Monolithsoft hicieron un trabajo excepcional, el juego corre igual que su predecesor a 900p/30fps en modo dock y 720p/30fps en modo portátil, sin embargo el juego está súper pulido y los fotogramas son totalmente estables salvo momentos muy puntuales donde llegan a bajar hasta 20fps,
    También la implementación del FSR de AMD el juego luce de maravilla.

    Conclusiones: Nintendo siempre hace un trabajo de admiración con Zelda, es una genialidad lo que logran y que siempre su franquicia rompedora e innovadora ha sido Zelda, Tears of the kingdom provocó en nosotros una inseguridad pero superó cada adversidad trayendonos algo único e inolvidable, es un juego imprescindible y me atrevo a afirmar que el nuevo mejor juego de la historia.    … Expand

There's no need to pretend like it's the worst game ever made. Did you think BoTW didn't have enough enemy variety? Well, in just the tiny amount of the map I've covered, I've discovered at least 20 new types. I could go on and on (seriously, this game just *keeps* going). I'm simply in awe of this game.… Expand

I applaud nintendo for a mind blowing achievement. essentially their most important IP.

    zelda fans and botw enjoyers will be pleased to return. the adventure is as wondrous as ever in a more redefined experience. from the moment you set foot in land and see a tree becoming reanimated to attack you. puzzles that make you push and learn with creativity. creating ways to reach your goal. and create tools with physics. above, middle and below. will make you realize the magnitude of the games size and content. the developers efforts shine. my first battle with colgera along tulin was probably the one of the funnest experiences i had in a long time. there aren't many games like this. well maybe elden ring can fill that sense of void. every shrine and every path you take to get what you need and get you stuck in a world. everything I experienced was rewarded by fun.

    Los santuarios son muy entretenido e innovadores, mejoraron mucho con respecto a los anteriores santuarios, ofrecen más mecánicas y nuevos modos para desafiar la mente del jugador.
    Los templos aunque sencillos superficialmente, son desafiantes e entretenidos, perfecto para llevar al jugador a adentrarse más en esta historia.
    Por último las mecanicas, me han parecido perfectas, no hay mucho que decir puesto a qué son básicas, pero esto no quita el hecho de que brinden muchas oportunidades creativas al jugador para explotarlas a lo largo de todo Hyrule.

    The good thing is that, thanks to the limited possibilities, the creators couldn't go crazy and swing for hundreds of game miles. Instead, they created what could be called Elden Ring in a travel pack. [Issue#328]

    The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom has lived up to the high expectations created by the success of Breath of the Wild with its exquisitely intertwined gameplay systems, outstanding music, and a legendary story culminating in a magnificent denouement. It's not every day that such a special video game like this comes around. Truly the stuff of legend.
