    Pretty fun game. I'm normally not a big fan of Zelda or open world games but this one was a big exception. The open world was really fun to explore, i constantly got side-tracked by little puzzles or shrines or NPC's.

This game is a bit of a mix, some elements are a bit disappointing but here are the pros and cons:

    Pros:

    Replayability

    Memorable characters

    Exploration

    Glitches

    Hours you get out of

    Story

    Cons:

    Music

    Combat

    Dungeons

    So, starting with the pros:

    The Gameplay is some of the best I have seen. Flying from Rito village to shield surfing down a mountain is just satisfying, the number of things to do and ways to play the game is amazing, the best I have ever seen.

    The replayability in this game is amazing, I have played through this game over and over and I am still discovering new things and finding new locations. You could play through game repeatedly and still not find so many things, The hours though...

    There are many memorable characters, the way Nintendo does this is great, from Ravioli’s Cockiness to Zelda’s Love is crazy compared to other games.

    Exploration is crazy, Breath of the Wild changed the Idea of open world, letting the player do as much of they want and getting to do finish the game when they feel like it, the world is massive compared to anything else at the time and revolutionized open world.

    The glitches in the game do not look good... But! For an open world game, it does not have many glitches compared to games like Cyberpunk, and the community only discovered the game-breaking glitches a couple of years after the game came out, if you look at them now, it does not look great but looking further it is great.

    The hours you get out of it might seem like a con to some, put a big pro to others, this game is the most addicting I have ever played, and I have hundreds of hours on it, and like I mentioned before, there is way too much to do.

    The story is good, not much compared to other Zelda games but it is overall good, the game focuses on the backstory and history of the world, being slightly barebone in the current time, but overall, solid.

    Now onto the Cons:

    The Music is horrible compared to other Zelda games, they are masterpieces, while this is just a guy playing some keyboard notes every few seconds and is boring. I really think Nintendo could have done better but they did not put the effort in.

    The combat in this game is barebones, if you use glitches this is the opposite, but the normal combat BORING. The only things you can do are normal attacks and spin attacks, that’s it. There are 3 types of weapons being Swords, Two-handed Swords, and spears, all with different fighting styles, but the combat is still boring.

    The dungeons in this game are a bit disappointing coming from Zelda, the game series is all about them. The dungeons are not Horrible, but you get 120, yes 120 bite-sized dungeons that take 5-10 minutes + 4 Big dungeons that take about 20-30 Minutes, this is disappointing for Zelda.

    Overall this is a masterpiece, end of story.    … Expand

    Almost a perfect Zelda experience. My only complaints being limited to minor grips including shield surfing max speed being too slow, lack of meaningful weapon and enemy diversity in the late game. The only large complaint I have would be the final boss being far too easy.

    The best Zelda game of all time when it comes to open world and game mechanics(except from TOTK). The open world is huge with so much to do in it. There are so many different environments to explore from lava volcanoes to deserts to snow mountains. There are also so many items in this game as well and the outfit and weapon system are amazing.

The cooking system is also a genius mechanic as well. The paraglider is also one of the most fun ways to travel in all of gaming. The story is basic but simple and finding the best weapons and the master sword is very fun. Despite the final dungeon being amazing as its essentially an open world castle with various enemies and treasures, the other dungeons and bosses are all bland- they are more puzzles rather than actual temples, which is very annoying. Shrines were fun but got tedious eventually. Overall a masterclass of a game.… Expand

Once you've completed the game, down to the tiniest challenge of all dlc, BOTW remains an experience that's always available to live. It's worth going back to the version of the kingdom of Hyrule as we go back to the garden or forest and experience it just by being there, surrounded by its atmosphere.

    What makes this game my favorite of all the amazing games in the franchise, it is your feeling of freedom that the game spends all the time.
    You can go directly to the end of the game if you want, or stay hours and hours, just looking for korok seeds.

    Context: I beat the game, on a Nintendo Switch. I have experience playing open world action-adventure games such as The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, Assassin's Creed: Black Flag and Red Dead Redemption 2. While The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild is the first in its series, I have not played any other Legend of Zelda games other than Hyrule Warriors for the Nintendo Wii U. To see the creditsContext: I beat the game, on a Nintendo Switch. I have experience playing open world action-adventure games such as The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, Assassin's Creed: Black Flag and Red Dead Redemption 2. While The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild is the first in its series, I have not played any other Legend of Zelda games other than Hyrule Warriors for the Nintendo Wii U. To see the credits roll, took me roughly 40 hours, with about 30 deaths.

    In The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, obviously, you play as the franchise's heroic Link, battling sinister forces, teaming up with the champions of Hyrule, and reviving a dormant civilization. Breath of the Wild is a gritty, survivalist game that doesn't hold back when it comes to brutalizing players. Breath of the Wild eschews traditional safety nets and spreads heuristic-upsetting risks throughout the player's journey. Link dies if he gets too cold while trekking in snowy regions or too hot while trekking scorching regions. If equipped with a weapon or piece of armour made of metal, Link risks being struck by lightning in a Thunderstorm. He risks drowning or falling to his death if he swims or climbs without taking a break. And, since the entire world is virtually accessible once a player leave the initial area, if he wanders into an area with too-powerful monsters, he's pretty much doomed. Even weapons are transient, crumbling after a few tense battles. When Link's health begins to dwindle, players must forage for scraps before cooking over a campfire.

    This creates one of the most expansive, gratifyingly adaptable playgrounds the medium has ever seen. Players can engage in tactical fights with a plethora of unique monsters. Or take images of the game's flora and animals with a Switch-like in-game tablet, named the Sheikah Slate, then follow audio pings to find whatever you're looking for. The Sheikah Slate provides expands the player's capabilities on all fronts. Bombs for combat, "magnesis," "cryonis," and "stasis" used for boss battles and puzzles, allow Link to tinker with reality itself. Instead of smashing crockery or cutting foliage for hearts (as in previous iterations), players tamper with a fascinating Minecraft-like economy of consumables and raw materials, balancing intuition against danger to concoct either nutritious or unpleasant concoctions and ability-boosting potions.

    This is really what makes Breath of the Wild stick out from other games in the open world genre. The training wheels are removed very early on. For food, should Link find apples from a tree or hunt an animal? Entering a dangerous region, should Link complete missions, save rupees and purchase the right armour or stock up on monster parts and brew elixirs making Link prone to such environmental hazards? To generate stunning or humdrum menu items, mix chemicals in cook pots? Have you been looking for materials to dye your garments in technicolour? Scale massive rune-scrawled skyscrapers to glass zones for possible destinations? Scramble up a cliff to catch a glimpse of a looming rainstorm? Glide over Elysian landscapes in search of hidden ledges and caves? Breath of the Wild urges players to walk off the beaten road and simply explore.

    Link will need to be prepared for everything. The distinction between foes and environment is frequently blurred in the most stylish of ways. For example, a tree toppled by hurling a bomb at a lumbering giant might be utilized by such foe to bash Link unconscious. Combat patterns, which often necessitate Witcher-style economy of mobility and the ability to react to unpredictable, multi-lethal opponents, are similar.

    In the end, most of what propels Breath of Wild to the highest point in the series' history boils down to core Nintendo principles: subverting and tectonically recasting traditional conceptions to create an odyssey that is both intriguing and expansive. But there's a Zelda-like balance to the action that's missing from other open world adventures, a symmetry to its unequal but interwoven elements. The ingenious, puzzle-filled dungeons, the easy-to-grasp, hard-to-master combat system, diverse cast of charming characters, and numinous Japanese Shinto-inspired mythology are all part of the appeal. If you're more in store for an action-adventure, emphasis on action, Breath of the Wild might not be for you. The detailed narrative and constant puzzle solving needed to collect Spirit Orbs and defeat Divine Beasts can put off a player who has an action craze. I also believe that the game being developed for the dead Wii U resulted a Breath of the Wild that is rough on the edges, something that the upcoming The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild 2 will resolve.    … Expand

Es ist nicht nur das beste Switch-Spiel, sondern vor allem das beste Spiel aller Zeiten. Außerdem ist es meiner Meinung nach das beste Spiel der Reihe und ich meine, Zelda natürlich zurecht ist die beliebteste Spielereihe aller Zeiten. An alle die eine Switch ohne Botw(Breath of the wild) haben: Schämt euch! Man findet auf der ganzen Welt keine Top-Liste der besten Switch-Spiele ohne Botw auf Platz 1.
    Doch wieso liebe ich dieses Spiel so sehr?
    1. Die Musik ist unfassbar gut. Und das obwohl sie nicht von Koji Kondo ist. Das schafft sonst fast kein Nintendo-Spiel. Ich liebe das Main-Theme! Aber allein der Trailer des Spiels ist unübertrieben epischer als alle Trailer (auch von Filmen), die ich je gesehen habe.
    2. Die Story und die Charaktere sind so interessant und genial! Die Story ist einfach nur herzzerreißend und so unfassbar nachvollziehbar. Man startet mit Link ohne jegliche Erinnerung in der postapokalyptischen Welt Hyrule und man erlangt langsam seine Erinnerungen zurück und erkundet die Welt. Die Charaktere sind einfach nur toll dargestellt. Die Entwicklung von Prinzessin Zelda ist super dargestellt. Die verschiedenen Dörfer und Völker sind auch witzig und interessant.
    3. Die Freiheit ist einzigartig. Es gibt kein Spiel, das so ein Open-World-Game ist wie Botw. Es gibt keine unsichtbaren Wände. Du kannst überall hin, wo du hin willst. Du kannst in jedes Haus, was wirklich einzigartig ist, denn so ein Spiel gibt es sonst nicht. Kein Open-World-Game hat wirklich keine Grenzen, außer Botw.
    4. Dann gibt es da noch die kleineren Unglaublichkeiten, die ich jetzt alle in einen Punkt packe. Es gibt 120 sogenannte Schreine, in denen man kleine Rätsel und Prüfungen absolviert, die jeweils 5-10 Minuten dauern und für die man auch eine Belohnung bekommt, die sich lohnt, wenn man alle schafft. Es gibt über 150 Sidequests, die zwar teilweise nervig sind, aber trotzdem viele Spielstunden füllen. Und dann sind da natürlich die 900 Krogs. Sie verstecken sich unter Steinen, auf Bäumen, in Teichen und vielen anderen Orten. Sie sind auch hilfreich, da man mit ihnen seine Waffentasche vergrößern kann, die Belohnung, die man kriegt, wenn man alle hat, ist aber lächerlich. Sie bringt absolut nichts. Natürlich können diese Dinge auch negativ gewertet werden, wenn man 100% schaffen will, aber eigentlich bedeutet das nur, dass es extrem viel Content gibt und das ist es wofür Botw steht. Dann kommt hinzu, dass man Pferde reiten kann, dass es viele verschiedene Kostüme mit verschiedenen Buffs gibt und dass die Waffen zerbrechen. Das könnte auch als negativ angesehen werden, was ich aber nicht finde, da man sonst die ganze Zeit nur mit seiner besten Waffe spielt und die anderen nicht braucht. So muss man überlegen, was taktisch klüger ist: Die gute Waffe zu benutzen oder eine eher schlechtere.
    Doch natürlich hat auch Botw schlechte Punkte. Der größte ist, dass der Bosskampf lächerlich einfach ist. Ohne zu Spoilern: Der Bosskampf hat zwei Phasen. Die erste ist nicht schwer, aber anspruchsvoll und die zweite kann man nur schaffen. Der Boss macht keine Attacken und du selbst musst ihn nur oft genug treffen, dann ist er down. Außerdem wurden die alten bekannten Zelda-Dungeons durch vier Titanen gestrichen, die erstens weniger sind als die Dungeons und zweitens viel leichter als die klassischen Zelda-Dungeons sind, also kein guter Ersatz. Die 120 Schreine hingegen sind wirklich eine tolle Idee, sie machen wirklich Spaß.
    Aber jedes Spiel hat so seine Macken und Fehler. Nichts desto trotz: Spielt dieses Spiel, ihr werdet es lieben und falls ihr es durchgespielt habt und es nicht mochtet, dürft ihr diese Bewertung ruhig mit "Nein" bewerten.    … Expand

    Above and beyond the rest in the series. The huge landscapes, as well as non-linear progression make this one stand alone in the franchise. The weapon durability, while an angst for most, adds to the challenge of the game. The rain is a huge pain for climbing, but can be used to hide your sound when sneaking. Everything has an advantage and disadvantage.

    The only negative I can speak to regarding Breath of the Wild is what I saw as a lack of replayability. After clearing all the shrines and completing the DLC, I had almost no desire to return to this version of Hyrule. However, I have almost no doubt that the first time you play through Breath of the Wild, you will enjoy yourself no matter what other games you like.

    Rarely do modern video-games provide such non-patronizing and truly open gaming experience as the Breath Of The Wild. Seldom these days do games truly focus and run on nothing more than the players' own curiosity; their desire to explore the world and have a wild adventure.

Seldom these days do games truly focus and run on nothing more than the players' own curiosity; their desire to explore the world and have a wild adventure.
    ――
    Big words, huh? Well, I don't talk big without a good reason.
    Having watched numerous, once quintessential series decline in the past decade or two, Legend Of Zelda included, I can't say I was exactly ecstatic when I first saw how this latest installment would play in practice. Too often nowadays can an experienced veteran gamer make some pretty accurate and safe predictions out of given pre-release information or the first few minutes into the game, simply because how often modern titles tend to play it "safe" by rehashing the popular designs. In BotW's case, the term "Ubisoft open-world game", down to the climbable towers and all, was the common slur people hastily used to describe the newcomer title... and at first I thought they were right.
    ――
    "WRONG!", yelled Lex Luthor. At mere hour or two into the game, I started to realize my mistake. At most, this is a wolf in a sheep's clothing. Something that merely LOOKS familiar and same-y on the surface. The freedom to truly explore ANY nook and corner, scale any wall you come across, all while having to come up with solutions for how to deal with the numerous deadly hazards of this new version of the Hyrule... this is what "engaging" truly means!
    Then, a couple hours later, I came to realize that the first few hours were nothing more than an elaborate "tutorial". That beyond this already reasonably sized piece of the world map lied an even larger world. One with MORE dangers, more wonders and more exciting fun to be found.
    ――
    I cannot think too many other (mainstream / AAA) games, at least from the past several years, that would strip away all artificial obstacles and walls the same way as BotW. Literally nothing else than your own lack of skill (or sufficient gear) can stop you from waltzing straight from the starting area, to the very final boss, and maybe even defeat it. At no point will the game try to stop you from exploring deadly and exotic areas, for dozens of hours, before tackling some story -missions. And very rarely is the answer to your own "I wonder if this silly plan could work?" a big fat "No!".
    There's simply a ton of things to do in the BotW's ruined Hyrule, and more elaborate, simulated "systems" that not only keep the world feel "living", but that can also be exploited in numerous, even some hilarious ways.
    ――
    I can totally see Breath Of The Wild being a divisive game.
    However, one thing is for sure: no two playthroughs will ever play the same!
    Even after hundreds of hours, I am still learning something brand new of the game, and it seems like I too keep surprising some old vets with my tales of some tricks and experiences of my own.
    ――
    For 20+ years, I was certain that nothing could come close to the magnificence of the Ocarina Of Time and the Majora's Mask. Now, however, I am pleased to admit that I was wrong. Breath Of The Wild finishes this tri-force of greatest games in the history of the industry.
    ――
    Hyperbole much? On the contrary!
    THIS is a game that needs not only be played by everyone, but also TAUGHT in schools.
    This is a video-game, all about what makes video-games so good in the first place: the gameplay.
    When just moving in the game feels good, you are on the right track.

Cientos de horas de diversión en uno de los mundos abierto jamás creado. Con una banda sonora increíble, con un arte gráfico espectacular, unas físicas muy pulidas en gran variedad de objetos, paisajes y seres que hacen que el usuario pueda resolver o crear situaciones hasta donde su imaginación le permita con infinitas posibilidades.
    Es un juego inmenso en el que me podría explayar horas hablando de todo lo que ofrece, así que voy a destacar para acabar el punto negativo que hace que este juego no se lleve un 10. Eso es la forma en que está hecha la historia. Para el amante de la saga la historia corre un papel muy importante en el juego. Y al ser un mundo abierto tan inmenso en el que te puedes perder haciendo miles de cosas, la historia no está bien hilada y construida de tal forma que el jugador no se desconecte de ella.
    Por lo demás, a esperar con muchas ganas Zelda Breath of the Wild 2 :)    … Expand

    This epic game on the great Wii U and Switch is just so satisfying. It’s like Mario Odyssey if it was also on the Wii U and was Zelda

    This game is beautiful. The art work to how you can get from place to place is amazing. The original characters you can talk too have their own personality and it brings some charm to the Zelda universe.

    Uno de los mejores juegos que existe y como es obvio, fue hecho por Nintendo

    Breath of the Wild is a nice revamp of the Zelda formula, the physics and chemical engine adds a lot to the gameplay, which really surprised me, this is what a sandbox should be, being able to experiment with everything you can do with little boundaries gives an immense sense of freedom and acomplishment for every new non official mechanic that you can find on your own.

    The game has some weaknesses though. There aren't enough dungeons and they can be a bit repetitive, also, kinda boring sometimes for the lack of change in themes, but not all of them are mandatory. At least the Wii U version has some framerate issues but rarely they make it unplayable, just be aware.

    Story wise it is a bit weak but I didn't expect nothing special from a Zelda game in this regard, but it still left me wanting more, specially from the colorfull support cast of four champions. And the weapon degradation system is a bit too much of a burden, there are weapons that I love and for that reason I don't use it. The rain is another issue, sometimes is too frecuent and takes away at least 30% of Link's climbing performance wich in turn makes world traversing boring automatically.

    It's my own policy to substract at least one point for aditional DLC and Microtransactions in full price games and this game has two sets of DLC that aren't big enough to justify the price bump. Also, Amiibos artificially block some content to unnecesaries pieces of plastic junk, they're not game breaking but I would love to have access to the special armor, Epona and Wolf Link with an ingame mechanic instead of an artificial vault that you can only open with spending more money.

    I would love it if they had made the Wii U version a more unique experience, it doesn't take advantage of the Wii U gamepad at all and it seems that at least some of the features of the original builds of the game were stripped out in order to make the Switch version more attractive.

    I love this game, battling is great and the commitment from Nintendo into releasing it even after the unfortunate missapreciation that the Wii U suffered from the market, the developers and the press is a show of respect that I wouldn't expect from many companies.

    The game is a must play.    … Expand

    Una obra maestra, grandes mundos por explorar gran cantidad de cosas que ver y ademas con mucho contenido audiovisual.

    Incredible open world, wonderful revamped combat system, great puzzle design in the shrines, good sidequests, yada yada yada. You all know all the good stuff about Breath of the Wild. Here are the reasons it's not a 10:

    - Bad story: Barely anything happens in the present; most of the cutscenes are about how Ganon came back 100 years ago and such, which makes the main quest feel boring    Incredible open world, wonderful revamped combat system, great puzzle design in the shrines, good sidequests, yada yada yada. You all know all the good stuff about Breath of the Wild. Here are the reasons it's not a 10:

    - Bad story: Barely anything happens in the present; most of the cutscenes are about how Ganon came back 100 years ago and such, which makes the main quest feel boring because everything eventful has already happened.

    - Bad dungeons: The shrines, which serve as mini dungeons of sorts, are good, but the main dungeons themselves are cramped, not that well designed, and full of handholding with no room to explore and solve puzzles for yourself. Plus all of the bosses are too similar.

    - Not enough enemy variety: Past Zelda games would have dozens of enemy types to shake things up, but Breath of the Wild has barely more than 10, not counting different varieties of the same enemy types. Fighting the same footsoldiers over and over again across the massive world gets very repeptitive, and takes the life out of the otherwise beautiful world.

    - Unbalanced: Once you reach a certain point in Breath of the Wild, the combat becomes a joke, because you have started getting better weapons, but the enemies aren't getting that much stronger, with only a few exceptions. This is one major issue that went unsolved with the nonlinearity.

    - Slowdown: The game has issues with slowdown, especially in towns (moreso in the Wii U version). It was worse at launch, but it still happens a lot nowadays.

    These are the biggest issues that popped out to me. There are other minor ones, but ultimately BotW is still a great game. Unfortunately it has issues that keep it from being a masterpiece.    … Expand

    The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild is an absolute joy to play as it's an undeniably rewarding adventure set in a deeply immersive world. Although the experience is weighed down by a few minor problems, the overall journey is one that no gamer will soon forget.

    Breath of the Wild can’t be compared to the likes of The Witcher 3 or Skyrim because it’s not trying to be those games -- it’s a Nintendo game -- and series -- all grown up. It has a lot to offer and will keep you engaged for lengthy periods of time. If you’re playing on Switch as you absolutely should be, then you can also Zelda wherever you go. It’s arguably not the best Zelda game, but damn, it might be the most polished, and the most ambitious.

    Does it have the best combat system in the world? No. Is it the best looking game out there? No. Does it have the best RPG soundtrack ever? No. Can the game make you feel like you are eight years old again? Hell yes. It certainly had that effect with me. It has been a long time since exploring, fighting, and adventuring has so consistently brought a smile to my face. Breath of the Wild is such a wonderful experience that once you play it, you will likely never look at open world games the same again.
