    Tears of the Kingdom is a masterpiece of craftsmanship. Very well done gameplay, the game immediately throws you in action.

Of course the low IQ chuds are here to review bomb a good game because it's not a linear hallway fest that holds your hand every step of the way. I ask this question to the morons giving this masterpiece a low score, can you name ONE game that even comes close? I doubt it.

    Poor generic openworld cell shaded graphics puzzle intended. Rent it/try it first before buying.

    Big open sandbox like botw, cool to build stuff, if you like puzzles then you will have a fun time. Its a solid 7/10 but im confused as to why its getting universal 10's this game does not do enough to justify it having nearly a PERFECT SCORE when it does nothing to evolve gaming like ocarina of time or other games of the past.    … Expand

    The FPS and resolution dips are too much for me. BotW, even with its occasional dips, wasn't having as much performance issues as TotK. I know that even when it was released, in 2017, the Switch's hardware was already quite outdated, but I feel like more optimization patches will be able to solve those dips. Either way, the Switch 2 is really more than welcome right now

    My main concern prior to playing was that Tears would feel more like an expansion or DLC than a true sequel. The pre-existing overworld remained, and the visuals appeared mostly unaltered.

    These fears were (mostly) dispelled after a few hours of playtime. The game encourages you to think and improvise in a way that few others have done before, including BoTW. The world is truly vast,    My main concern prior to playing was that Tears would feel more like an expansion or DLC than a true sequel.

    These fears were (mostly) dispelled after a few hours of playtime. The game encourages you to think and improvise in a way that few others have done before, including BoTW. The world is truly vast, probably twice the size of the original and the sense of freedom is intoxicating. You won’t get more than a few minutes into a task or journey before becoming distracted with something new, and yet somehow the game never feels overwhelming.

    The Sky Islands are beautiful and awe-inspiring, The Depths are vast, despite having a repetitive procedurally-generated feel about them.
    Some of the new concept mechanics are ingenious in a way that only Nintendo could conceive, and must be experienced first-hand to fully appreciate their brilliance.

    I would point out however that the game has failed in doing what all great sequels are in fact required to do: and that is to address its predecessor’s shortcomings:-

    The clunky and banal combat system, the tedious cooking routine, overly brittle weapons, feeble voice acting and occasional FPS issues are a few examples of drawbacks which remain unrectified.

    It’s a very fun and inventive game, easily a top 5 Zelda title without question, but in my opinion has failed to show sufficient separation from an already imperfect first title to be considered an all-time great.    … Expand

    If you enjoyed Breath of the Wild, this is basically that game with some tweaks to the mechanics, and an increased color-saturation, for some reason (seriously, why?). This is honestly just an expansion being billed as a full-on sequel. Its an okay game... not great... not terrible... NOT worth $70.

    Tears of the Kingdom compared to Breath of the Wild is like the original Shrek compared to Shrek 2. TotK is magnificent, playing BOTW feels like watching the first Shrek, which is good, but there's just an outstanding second part.

Don't trust the "critics" they're payed shills to get you to buy any game from a big company. Honestly saddens me that this is how games have become that IP alone can get you awards. Care into making a fun experience is all thrown out the window for pretty graphics. Open world games should tell a story in a non forced manor.

    That removal of dungeons for the arguably worse temples and shrines is something they didn't fix and addition of bigger floating landmass with the same map from 2017 with barely any changes is a **** joke for a non remake.

    The combat is still uninteresting and the game still as easy. Difficulty comes to "are a game journalist? no, the game is piss easy", "are you a game journalist? Yes, the game is normal difficulty"

    The new fusion mechanic is boring and barely helpful.

    The new powers are cool but again barely useful.

    The construction/engineering mechanic is interesting but needs to be fleshed out more.

    ___
    Graphic:
    Let's take into account that the game was released on the console with a mobile SoC, 2015 release, NVidia Tegra X1. Therefore, within the framework of this game system, the graphics are somewhere between "good" and "well, it could have been better."
    My score for the graphic: 7/10

    About the plot, without spoilers, it will not be possible to tell normally. I can say one thing, this game, like the previous one, has a very simple, but, however, pleasant plot.

Are you freaking kidding me?This game is a huge steaming pile of garbage. The greedy developers are charging $70 for a mobile game. It doesn't even have the AAA quality to justify the $70 price tag. Just when I thought Nintendo has done the greediest thing imaginable, something even greedier comes up. They are charging a $70 next-gen price for a game that isn't even on a next-gen console. Are you freaking kidding me? This game can barely runs at 30fps 720p and dips to 20fps in combat. When I pay $70, I expect a performance and fidelity mode. The graphics are a joke. This whole cel shading stuff is just an excuse for developers to be cheap and lazy. The textures are pukeworthy. The physics are beyond horrible. The combat is boring and repetitive. The story is terrible. Cringeworthy running animations. It's the exact same game as the last, even the map is the freaking same. It's just new missions, cutscenes and attaching things. It's literally $70 DLC. When it comes to voice acting, Nintendo are extremely cheap. $70 only to get "oh ah uh hmm" voice acting during in-game dialogue. That's pathetic. Lack of enemy variety and laughable boss fights.

    There is nothing to do in the open world. It's just a boring empty landscape of plants, trees, rocks, water and mountains. It's the same map as BOTW. All the lazy developers did was edit the map a bit with the creator tools and called it a day. And no, the map under the world and the sky islands don't count as new maps. GTA 5 Online has gotten new places under the map through updates and players can create sky maps with the Content Creator, so that makes it a different map, right? Wrong, it's still the same map. Not to mention the sky islands in TOTK are copied and pasted. It's embarrassing that a smaller studio like Coffee Stain North can give me a new map for Goat Sim 3 at $30, while TOTK is the same map with worse FPS and graphics for $70. Speaking of which, you can now build cars like you can in a Goat Sim 3 quest, but the cars are much slower. Maybe if they went fast enough, I might've had fun doing stunts off the empty boring mountains. Obviously the developers made it slow so it wouldn't expose a framerate nightmare. When I axed a tree, it shattered like glass and magically went under the ground.

    The fact that this low-budget rehased garbage got a 96 proves there are double standards and hypocrisy among these critics. Let's all be honest with ourselves. Forget the PS5/XSX and $70 price tag, If this were just a PS4/X1 game for $60 without the Legend of Zelda title, the narrative would've been so different. There is no way it would've scored higher than a 75 average. This game would be crucified by critics for low-budget graphics, poor draw distance, bad lip syncing, low unstable FPS and lack of innovation. Gamers would be roasting it by calling it a PS2 game. And then these game journalists have the audacity to rant and virtue signal over studios crunching, even though they are the main reason why crunch even exists in the first place, because every studio has to work at least 100 times harder than Nintendo to get a 90 overall Metacritic score. Playstation Studios had to crunch hard to become a critic darling with those graphics and over-produced cutscenes, but Zelda devs can make copy/paste shovelware and get treated like the Messiahs of gaming. I don't even want to hear about the Switch being underpowered. They are charging a premium next-gen price of $70, so I expect the same level of quality as PS5 and XSX. Not my fault these greedy cheapskates at Nintendo refuse to release next-gen hardware. There are hundreds, or maybe even thousands of indie games with higher quality than this trash for a cheaper price, yet get much lower scores from critics.

    There is no multiplayer. So once you beat the story, there is literally not a reason to touch this game again. Charging $70 for a game with no replay value is a cash grab. Nintendo, you can make all the indie quality games you want. But when I get a $70 game with no guaranteed online multiplayer, that is where I absolutely draw the line. How dare you give me half of the game for $70. I might've actually had fun if it had online. That's the least they could do after increasing the price for this low budget game. It's funny when Zelda fans make fun of COD for being the same game every year. At least there are new maps and graphics every year, while Zelda is the same map and graphics in 6 years. It's mind boggling that this game gets universal acclaim for indie quality at $70, when others work much harder and get panned by critics and gamers. I don't recommend this game at all, unless you want to support laziness.    … Expand

    I wasn't sure how Nintendo would find a way to top their work in Breath of the Wild back when it came out, but I feel they have here – with years of more polish applied and refined exploration. [Issue #66 – July/August 2023, p. 71]

    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.
