    I still can’t believe how the Zelda team has managed to improve over somerhing that felt already so complete. Amazing.

    Masterpiece!! This game is amazing in every way. A game that I could play for years and never get sick of. If you bash this game, you obviously haven't even gave it a chance. I get it won't be for everyone but if you give this game a bad rating you just hate life.

    I don’t know how they did. They managed to double the size of the map with underground depths. And have huge expansive sky islands. Everything in this game that you do feels like a discovery you made. Just buy this game, you can play it everywhere and anywhere. If any game was worth $70 it’s this one. There won’t be a game like this for a long time.

    The best game I've ever played! A MASSIVE map, a lot of sidequests, an amazing story and a diverse gameplay! Everything we wanted for a sequel of Breath of the Wild

    Having finished Breath of the Wild 3 times since 2017, I was wondering if Tears of the Kingdom could bring the sense of awe and adventure I felt with the first game. I can safely say that YES, it ABSOLUTELY is!! ToTK feels new and exciting as well but somewhat familiar at the same time. Exploration feels AWESOME with all the verticality added to the kingdom of Hyrule! The new "Fuse"Having finished Breath of the Wild 3 times since 2017, I was wondering if Tears of the Kingdom could bring the sense of awe and adventure I felt with the first game. I can safely say that YES, it ABSOLUTELY is!! ToTK feels new and exciting as well but somewhat familiar at the same time. Exploration feels AWESOME with all the verticality added to the kingdom of Hyrule! The new "Fuse" mechanic is addictive and Ultra Hand lets you create whatever you want with the tools at your disposal. There are practically ENDLESS combinations of what you can do with these new mechanics. I'm not that far into the game, but I can safely say that it's DEFINITELY a game of the year contender for me. Great job Nintendo!!!… Expand

    It looks like similar with breath of the wild at first.
    But as the game progress, feels new and improvement from the BOTW.

    "THE LEGEND OF ZELDA: TEARS OF THE KINGDOM" is undoubtedly "2023 GOTY". It is the number 1 among AAA open world 3D action ARPG games. Combat action is the best. And above all, freedom is the best.

    On sait déjà que le jeu est une suite directe de BOTW, et donc il est normal que l'histoire se passe dans le même univers, et déjà dès le début TOTK pose l'intrigue proprement et nous montre comment on est toujours dans Hyrule de la fin de BOTW et comment les changements vont être déclenchés.

Le jeu par contre est épuisant mentalement, car on ne s'arrête pas de découvrir des nouvelles choses, à chaque 2 minutes, il y a un nouveau truc sur l'écran qui peut nous attirer, et on a notre attention alerté constamment, sans oublier qu'il faut constamment réfléchir pour élucider les très très nombreuses situations pour résoudre des énigmes ou avancer dans l'exploration, et c'est mine de rien très épuisant à la longue, surtout que le jeu est d'un contenu irréaliste. J'avoue que je ne croyais pas à la capacité de Nintendo ou un autre éditeur de surpasser BOTW. Avec ce TOTK on peut affirmer facilement que c'est le cas.… Expand

    ill put 10 because i like breath of the wild and the generosity of a open world family friendly.
    also to balance the huge amount of haters who put red scores.
    probably i game ill put hundred of hours experimenting and enjoying
    A GAME IS GOOD IF ITS FUN NOT GROUNDBRAKING GRAPHICS

    You can tell the people who review bombed the game haven't played it when their criticisms are proven factually wrong in less than an hour of game time. TotK is one of the best games ever made, built on top of another one of the best games ever made.

    It's the same game as Breath of The Wild.

    If you take out the new building and forging mechanics out of it - it is the same Zelda you played 6 years ago. Sure, it's not a bad game, it's still very decent - but it's the SAME. You can't add 3 game mechanics, new mediocre story with similar elements, use the same map, and call that a brand-new game. It's like if GTA 4: Ballad of Gay    It's the same game as Breath of The Wild.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Este juego es básicamente un DLC enorme para BotW (y estoy muy seguro que así era originalmente). No me gustó el Breath of the Wild original cuando salió, lo encontré bastante aburrido, repetitivo, con una historia muy mediocre y un final vacio que simplemente no podía llegar a interesarme.
    Lamentablemente, Tears of the kingdom es el mismo juego rempaquetado como un título "diferente". El arte es decente, pero este es absolutamente lastrado por malas texturas y un rendimiento paupérrimo.    … Expand

    I think it's just ugly and doesn't offer great gameplay points. But especially the art and graphics are not acceptable in a 2023 game.

    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.
