    Okay, so, this game is Nintendo at their best.

    I've played some of their best games from the original Super Mario Bros to Super Metroid to Splatoon; and I can say for certain that they're in fine form. I've had some experience with the Legend of Zelda before, and I loved it, but this takes it to a whole other level. This is probably the most free and non-linear game of all time, or at least very close to it. Rather than make a map and graft paths and story onto it, Nintendo have made a massive map, dispersed story elements and boss fights, and let you loose. The art style is Nintendo through and through, STYLE and BEAUTY over realism: this game nails the open-air feel it set out to capture not by having ultra photo-realistic graphics that imitate the real world to the atomic level, but by conveying the wonder and beauty of the world and creatures through delicious, simple yet complex, visuals and art. The characters are hilarious and relateable, the dialogue is perfect and the voice-acted cutscenes keep the gameplay light and fun and important story moments dramatic and attention-grabbing. Speaking of fun, this is THE most fun game I've ever played. I mostly play games for challenge and story, because they don't focus on fun, only driving you insane with massive challenges and small rewards to keep you coming back. What kept me coming back to BOTW was the FUN, the immense fun. This comes from plentiful mechanics that seek to give and enhance the open feel of the game, without being too realistic and dragging you down. The openness, WOW. If you want to do something one particular crazy way, chances are, you can: there is no limit on height, you can cheat at puzzles, and go wherever you want.
    I was hesitant for a long time with scoring this, I'd had such fun, but was worried that it would dwindle and I'd just get used to it. I didn't. I entered a completely new area, extremely hostile and beautiful, full of awesome new characters that had me busting my gut with their ego and ineptitude. The game was fresh again, the variety limitless, the Zelda charm amplified by the new style and risk. I realised that this was the best and most engaging game I'd ever played, and was beyond perfect. Exploration and taking risks were hugely rewarding, and I ended up sacrificing speed and efficiency by not fast-travelling, because the world is so beautiful and exploration is a joy.

    Anyway, onto what I came here for. This is my favorite game of all time. Yes there are flaws but that doesn't take too much away from the game play.
    The frame-rate drops aren't that noticeable but one issue is freezing, it only last like three quarters of a second but can get a bit annoying when in a heated battle.
    Weapon durability can be annoying at times but adds this quest almost to find and take weapons from enemies or chests to use against them.
    The story is amazing with many compelling characters it makes the story whole. Yes there are parts with mediocre voice acting but there's also really good voice acting like from Rivalli or Urbosa, their voices were done really well and never seemed flat.
    I also loved to see the characters that I grew up loving, like Impa playing a semi-large role in the game.
    This game deserves every bit of hype it got and is definitely 10/10    … Expand

Were there was no one telling you were to go and you just had a world to explore. That is what BotW does with modernized gaming! It will not hold your hand, it will not tell you how to get this or that. You need to figure it out with your imagination and what you have around you. There are so many way's to go about one puzzle it is awesome!

    The world is your playground. No restrictions on where you can go on the map of Hyrule, everything is climbable and there is nothing that will say no you can not go that way. Unless it is the edge of the map, then you can climb and walk everywhere and anywhere! So get ready for one of the best games you can play! Legend of Zelda Breath of the Wild!

This game is better than anything I have played on Xbox and is right up there with my favourite games of all time, even though I am only half way through the game. I hope this doesn't read like an anti Xbox rant but the draw of this game was so strong that I couldn't wait until the end of the month.

    The first Zelda game I played was Ocarina of Time, it amazes me that although I have played hundreds of other games since then, Ocarina sticks out in my mind massively. I remember my excitement at getting new swords and armour as I stayed up late (It was probably like 11:30 lol) on Friday night playing it. I played Majoras Mask aswell but never beat that game. THIS GAME BRINGS ALL DEM MEMORIES BACK. IT IS AMAZING. There is a temple in this game and a soundtrack plays when you go near it and OMG it hit me right in the nostalgberries.

    You play Skyrim or Fallout and get that opening first world breath where you can go anywhere you want to. This game does that excellently, the piano score just tops it all off.

    I will go back and play all the Zeldas from Majoras mask onwards now that I can play them on the online store. I hope I haven't made a mistake by playing BOTW first but either way I am so happy I made the decision to trade my console. This is one of the best games of all time undoubtedly. It is a console seller. In 6 months, once I have beaten all the Marios and Zeldas I may trade it back again but until then I am loving what Nintendo are offering me and I feel like a dick for not investing in one of these games before. The game is just incredibly fun. It masters old Zelda elements and brings in new and inviting ones.

    I don't even use my horse as I love finding dem mushrooms and bokoblins. Do whatever you need to do to play this game, whether it be Switch or Wii U (Don't be a pirating wanker) it is completely worth it.

    My favourite game is Fallout due to the freedom, this game gives you just as much if not more. I love it. You will too!    … Expand

    A near-perfect adventure game, but doesn't really feel like a Zelda game. It's almost easier to see this as a Zelda "Reboot" of sorts. It feels more like playing the original 1986 NES game than playing something like Skyward Sword or Ocarina of Time.

    First and foremost, this isn't the first Zelda game I've ever played, and prior to this game I loved Wind Waker and Twilight Princess a lot due to its fun dungeons and game play, however ever since the release of Breath of the Wild, both games pale in comparison. The sheer amount of things you can do in breath of the wild is truly gives this game a magical feeling, something the previous Zelda games have failed to give us. The true open world experience gives the players a choice on how and what they can do on their own accord, rather than to be pre-programed to do like in the previous Zelda titles. This in itself is a feat that would create a great game, but Nintendo didn't stop there. They made it so the game has extremely high replay ability, having no two games play out the same.

    TL;DR
    It's a wonderful game that you should actually try to play and not hop onto the bandwagon of "wow this is actually **** just cause others are praising it.    … Expand

    For years now, my husband has done nothing but praise Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past as the best Zelda game, but as soon as he picked this game up and got into the meat of it, he uttered a sentence I never thought I'd hear him say, "This is the best Zelda since A Link to the Past."

The system of weapons and shields breaking, the different environment (extreme heat,    For years now, my husband has done nothing but praise Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past as the best Zelda game, but as soon as he picked this game up and got into the meat of it, he uttered a sentence I never thought I'd hear him say, "This is the best Zelda since A Link to the Past."

    And he's right. The system of weapons and shields breaking, the different environment (extreme heat, cold, etc.), and the ruthless difficulty of some of the enemies forces players to strategize to a degree that no other Zelda game has. In other words, the game doesn't hold your hand. It gives you what you need to win and tells you, "figure it out or die." That makes the combat challenging, but not impossibly difficult. Nintendo wasn't interested in coddling its fanbase, and the combat shows it.

    I'm not going to pretend the story is anything "inspired." It's relatively simple, but the (mostly) great voice acting and the dialogue bring the main characters to life and tell the story in a perfectly adequate way. But the main focus of this game was not meant to be the story, which is obvious by how much effort they put into the open world.

    No matter where you are on the map, there is always SOMETHING to do, whether it's fighting an enemy, clearing a shrine, finding a Korok, or shooting pieces off of a flying dragon. The developers ensured that they made use of every bit of that open space, which ensures players are never bored.

    Which brings me to my next point. The open world is absolutely gorgeous. The colors are vibrant where they need to be and equally dull when the situation calls for it. The designs of the important characters (Link, Zelda, the Champions, the Great Fairies, etc.) are each unique enough to make them stand out in our minds.

    If I did have one gripe about this game, it would be how emotionless Link seems to be in most cases. Awful things are happening all around him, but he hardly seems concerned. And if this were like the other Zelda games, this wouldn't be a problem, but there is full-fledged voice acting in the cut scenes. That makes the emotion of the other characters come out, which, in turn, makes Link's trademark silence stand out a lot more than it normally does. But that's more of a nitpick than anything.

    Overall, I haven't been able to find a single thing wrong with this game, so it gets a 10/10 from me. Believe the hype. This game is amazing.    … Expand

    After the disaster that was Skyward Sword & the terrible controls of Phantom Hourglass and Spirit Tracks (having to cover the entire screen Link is on with my hand to be able to move around is just a terrible design decision), I didn't go into this game expecting anything. If not for the trailers showing it to be much better, I might not have gotten the game at all. I got the Wii U versionAfter the disaster that was Skyward Sword & the terrible controls of Phantom Hourglass and Spirit Tracks (having to cover the entire screen Link is on with my hand to be able to move around is just a terrible design decision), I didn't go into this game expecting anything. If not for the trailers showing it to be much better, I might not have gotten the game at all. I got the Wii U version and found the game to be quite good. I had started to grow concerned for the series, but with this amazing game, I no longer feel that way. The open world feels more like the original NES Zelda than any other game in the series, while still being very much its own thing, and this return to the series roots breaks a lot of the conventions that I've had a problem with ever since Ocarina of Time.

    Though as someone who enjoys exploration far more than combat, I do feel like the enemies should have far less health than they do. In the original Zelda, fighting a group of blue lynels with the wooden sword was very difficult, but completely possible. Fighting just one with a boko club in this game is simply impossible... But at least the combat difficulty curve isn't based on how patient you can be, like it was from Ocarina of Time through to Skyward Sword, which was a terrible design decision.

    The enemies also don't feel very varied, simply because such a large percentage of them are humanoids, which all seem to act pretty similarly. Where are the tektites, leevers, pols voice, & poes? And if you're going to favor humanoids so much, why not a few with play styles that are a bit more different, like the boomerang-favoring goriyas, or the slow-but-tough gibdos and redeads? Thankfully, most combat can pretty much be ignored for those who wish to simply run past it, so I'm not going ding the game on that, but it's a thought to share..

    The world to explore is huge without feeling empty like Ocarina of Time's larger areas, or feeling repetitive like most open worlds seem to do. For example, I enjoyed Fallout 3 & New Vegas, but didn't get Fallout 4 simply because I got so tired of staring at a brown screen, and with the same assets everywhere, most places didn't feel unique enough to really remember where what was in relation to one another. Breath of the Wild's regions are colorful and varied, with no areas feeling too samey to one another.

    All in all, great job on this. 10/10 from me!    … Expand

    Let me preface this by saying, this was my first foray into Zelda games, so I was previously unaware of the lore. I picked up quickly and did not feel lost in the verbiage of the history. I love open world games, and to me this is the pinnacle of the style.

    Most important to me in a game are 4 things: story, music/sound, art style/graphics, gameplay. The game really exceeds on 3 of    Let me preface this by saying, this was my first foray into Zelda games, so I was previously unaware of the lore. I picked up quickly and did not feel lost in the verbiage of the history. I love open world games, and to me this is the pinnacle of the style.

    Most important to me in a game are 4 things: story, music/sound, art style/graphics, gameplay. The game really exceeds on 3 of these fronts and puts forth a solid effort on the 4th (music)

    Story: I know after doing research that Zelda games follow a similar story format, but this one was done with a unique twist that I thought was very creative. I loved the mystery behind what happened to Zelda and especially love the Memory quest. This quest unlocks specific memories relevant to the story, while also nudging you into more of an exploratory mode. 10/10

    Music/Sound: The music fits very well with the landscape of the game, with vast periods of openness complemented by a more empty score. However, I have always loved LoZ's music (Being a composer and studying the scores) and this score lacks the amount of memorable themes of titles past. It is understandable given the nature of the game, though, and complements the game quite well. Voice acting is wonderful as well, with interesting dialogue for many of the main characters that don't bog you down with tons of verbose lines (Looking at you Witcher 3) Most of the sound effects are wonderful in the game as well, though there could be a little more variation in Link's climbing and attacking sounds. Overall an above average sound package! 8.5/10

    Art style/Graphics: I love the art style in this game. Beautifully done in every aspect. The landscapes are what shine the most in this game. Everywhere you look is not only unique to its area, but exquisitely beautiful. Characters have a beautiful style to them as well. Not quite fully cartoon, but definitely not realistic looking. I love the environments, and often spend several minutes admiring the beauty. 10/10

    Gameplay: Very smooth for me. I haven't had too many issues with FPS drops, and the new patch should fix any lingering ones. The rune system is very intelligently done with uses not only in the shrines, but throughout the world. Speaking of shrines, I never feel they are too repetitive, and while puzzles usually aren't my favorite thing, I never get frustrated with them! Climbing and paragliding are two amazing features I wish could be available in all future open world games. They make the game feel a lot more accessible and immersive. Not having to jump glitch everywhere is wonderful. I also like the overall immersion of the game. Having to wear warm weather gear or cold weather gear or even swimming/climbing gear, really makes you rethink strategies! Cooking is cool and wields very rewarding results too! Weapon durability is not a problem for me, as it teaches you to strategize what weapons you use and when you use them. If I had any complaints it would be the relatively low amount of variety in monsters (compared to a game like Witcher 3). Overall, I thin the gameplay inhibits players from mindlessly playing the game, which I think is a great thing! 10/10

    Overall: 38.5/40 (96.25)

    This game has moved into the top of my favorite games list, through excellent gameplay, graphics, and story/immersion. It is not one of my favorite video game scores, but still very well done! There are so many little things to enjoy in this game that I can't fit, so you will just have to enjoy for yourself! Back to Zelda!!    … Expand

    For example. The world is FAR from empty. The world in Breath of the Wild is MASSIVE, but it's unlikely you'll ever come across an empty wasteland. You can't go 20 steps without finding something whether it be a shrine, an enemy, a hidden treasure, or even an all new side quest to complete. You can hunt for Korak seeds, battle guardians to collect rare materials, or upgrade your clothing and armor in various different ways.

    The beautiful stylized graphics really help this vibrant world pop and set itself apart from other open world adventure games.All the enemies have a unique design and are color coded to help determine the difficulty. Red enemies are typically easy while silver variations are difficult but chock full of goodies as a reward for defeating them. You can easily climb up this enemy food chain by defeating them and stealing their weapons and become a powerhouse.

    The combat is very fleshed out as well. Bows and arrows, swords, bombs, special abilities gained from taming the divine beasts, and even your shields can be used as weapons to deflect enemy projectiles. The targeting is great and never locks on to enemies you don't want them to. Many enemies have their own unique way of battling them. It's not just charge in and mash the attack button. You'll get killed if you do that!

    The amount of variety, content, and detail in this game is incredible. The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild (as of now) definitely deserves to be game of the year!    … Expand

    This game really gave Wii U a perfect ending.

    The graphic of this game could be the Best of Wii U or even best of Switch. Before playing this game, when i watch the trailer i just feel this game graphic is just... so so.

    There are so many open world RPG in the market right now, but most of their art style are more on realistic, that's make BOTW unique.

    For the gameplay, i think the most remarkable advantage of this game is... there will be 100 different of gaming experience for 100 players. This makes this game very interesting while you discuss your experience with your friend. I don't know how to describe exactly why, but it really work in this way.

    If i have to pick up some disadvantage of this game. I would said this game lack of enemies type, i almost feel there is only bokolins and ancient machine in this game.
    The FPS is not a big deal for me.

    This is my 1st Zelda game, and it really make me become an another Zelda fans.    … Expand

    In just one month and with a full time Job i managed to put well over 135 hours into this game, I'm not even close to being done with the game and i don't want to be because this game is so so good, I'd recommend it to new/old, casual and hard core gamers alike.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. A much-needed change from the standard 3D Zelda formula. Arguably the biggest (pun-intended) change from past installations in the Zelda franchise is the massive open-world map: a veritable playground for the curious and adventurous. Virtually any point you see on the map, you can reach. The stamina wheel from Skyward Sword makes a return, though this time it is upgradeable, and link can climb any surface to any heights he has the stamina to reach, which really opens up the door for exploration in an entirely new way.

    The magic of Breath of the Wild lies in its insistence in letting the player experiment and figure things out on their own, rather than guiding them down a scripted path for them to follow. Wanna go to Hyrule Castle as soon as you're off the Great Plateau? You can! For starters, the entire world map is obfuscated from the player's view at the beginning of their adventure. You reveal portions of the map by climbing watchtowers and surveying the area around you. I know what you're thinking. "Ugh, yet more towers in an open world game!" and I was right there with you the first time I saw one of these giant glowing orange monoliths. Though, where any other open world game would fill your map with mission objectives and icons once you climb the tower, attempting to force some sort of urgency on the player for plot reasons, Breath of the Wild takes a different approach in simply revealing a portion of the map to the player, nothing else. Any sidequests or treasure or points of interested will have to be marked by the player themselves. In this way, the game is excellent at fostering a desire to explore within the player.

    Perhaps the most controversial decision was that to generally eschew the traditional gameplay loop of "explore overworld, complete dungeon, repeat", and it's a decision that I was on the fence about for a long while. Though there are a few traditional "main" dungeons to play through, the majority of your puzzle-solving will be done in shrines, a sort of short-form dungeon with their own respective puzzles. The upside is that any of the shrines or "Dungeons" are able to be played in any order the player chooses, which gives real weight to player choice during the course of the game. You can do as little or as much as you want before taking on the final boss of the game.

    I think this is where the playerbase is split. 3D Zelda games to this point have been (for the most part) aggressively linear and scripted, leaving less room for player experimentation and choice. Traditionally, the story only plays out one way, and you must follow that. While some people are looking for this more focused, linear experience, others are rejoicing at the sheer joyfui experimentation that Breath of the Wild so heartily encourages. And while Breath of the Wild does have its problems, they're so few and far between that any frustration I had felt playing the game was always so quickly replaced with the wonder and joy of discovery.

    TL;DR: If you love setting the own pace of your adventure and freedom of choice (elder scrolls anyone?), there's a good chance you will have a blast with this game, while if you're looking for a more focused, streamlined and directed experience, you might find yourself bored with nothing to do.    … Expand

    The Legend of Zelda made the first series debut over 30 years ago. Since then players have followed our favorite hero protagonist, Link, through complex dungeons, intricate puzzles, and epic boss battles. It wasn’t until the latest entry Breath of the Wild that we were able to take hold of the reigns and, in fact, lead Link, through an epic adventure across Hyrule.

    Breath of the Wild’s    The Legend of Zelda made the first series debut over 30 years ago. Since then players have followed our favorite hero protagonist, Link, through complex dungeons, intricate puzzles, and epic boss battles. It wasn’t until the latest entry Breath of the Wild that we were able to take hold of the reigns and, in fact, lead Link, through an epic adventure across Hyrule.

    Breath of the Wild’s Hyrule, a land filled with inevitable deaths, thrilling environments, and puzzles that will require some serious critical thinking. And remember to dress appropriately, the weather in Hyrule is the least bit predictable. I recommend you refrain from wearing that plate armor during a thunderstorm. That’s right, physics and logic matter in this Hyrule. Not only do they matter but they coexist in a way that is pure chemistry. A light rain while climbing a sheer mountain face, or even pulling out an explosive arrow next to open fire, mistakes that you wouldn't naturally consider in a Zelda title, now dangers that are all too real for Link.

    The fighting mechanics in Breath of the Wild are exquisite. Each weapon that you’ll find throughout your adventure will have a mortality rate, so swing, slash, shoot, and bash wisely. Original Zelda weapons such as the bow, bombs, and the boomerang, make a much-welcomed reappearance. However, the new functions of these weapons are anything but classic. Bombs come in two separate shapes along with being unlimited. As for the bow, the Switch platform has the option to use the gyration within the controller to help with precise aiming; and the result is a surprisingly accurate and satisfying long range gameplay. Which leads us to the boomerang, I can't get enough of this weapon. Players no longer have the luxury of carelessly throwing their boomerang with the unquestionable certainty of its return. Rewarding and incredibly pleasing to use, it is now the player's responsibility to ensure a clear path of trajectory as well as timing the catch, making the boomerang more of a specialty weapon.

    As soon as the player gets thrown into this new and hostile Hyrule, we are presented with the quest to "Destroy Gannon.". A task that at the time seems to be an impossible one, you, garbed in worn down cloth while wielding a tree branch in place of a sword. The game is about preparation for that climatic moment, and depending on how prepared you are, will be the outcome for the difficulty of the task at hand. Gannon's castle sits almost constantly in your peripheral as the lingering reminder of what's to come.

    Exploration plays a huge role in Breath of the Wild. Scaling any mountain in sight never gets old with the game's precise and consistent climbing mechanics. Finding locations to paraglide in itself is a fun way to spend your time in Hyrule. Between these two features, it's clear that the game developers were confident about players exploring each nook and cranny of this world, in fact, they encouraged it. After a short time of looking around at Hyrule’s magnificently vast and detailed landscapes, you will quickly understand why. Stories are told without words when you stroll upon a sweeping meadow occupied by a terrifying amount of dormant vegetation engulfed Guardians. Frozen in time, they rest peacefully in this graveyard of twisted metal. You may find yourself curiously scavenging for ancient parts from decrepit machines and wondering what could have caused this devastation. It’s moments like this, which make Zelda: Breath of the Wild such a powerful work of art and a delight to play.

    The Zelda franchise is finally capable of being what our imaginations let us believe it was, over 30 years ago. From the controls, all the way to the musical scores, each aspect that comprises this game perfectly compliments the next. For these reasons, it is close to; if not a masterpiece. What captivated me most about this latest Zelda entry was its expectation of my intuitiveness. Never have I played a game that respected my use of logic and reasoning in such a way to make dull moments during playtime, few to nonexistent. Breath of the Wild doesn't attempt to embody an adventure; it offers a template for a journey and leaves the illustration of Link's epic quest to the player. I met an unexpected sense of responsibility after defeating Gannon. As protector of Hyrule, I will eagerly wait for my next chance to uphold my duty to save it from the grips of calamity. >>Tomas Vara    … Expand

It isn't bad, but could be a lot better. the music only play sometimes, with a melancholic piano to give us the felling of being alone in the big world. because of this, the game have just a fell memorable musics. again isn't bad, but the franchise had a better soundtracks. about the other topics, the game do everything perfectly right.

    Breath of the Wild is a masterpiece in game design. It is not a perfect game, and it is not the greatest game of all time, but it is close enough to the two to recommend a thorough play-through.

Characters and important objects leap off the screen    Breath of the Wild is a masterpiece in game design. It is not a perfect game, and it is not the greatest game of all time, but it is close enough to the two to recommend a thorough play-through.

    Graphics: 8/10

    The art style, which is inspired by Impressionist paintings and Studio Ghibli films, is "breath" - taking (pun intended). Characters and important objects leap off the screen beautifully. The same cannot be said of the landscape. While there are many beautiful views in the game, some landscapes look dull up close and do not match the beauty of the rest of the game. Also, frame-rate drops occasionally annoyed me, but outside of the Gerudo region and the Great Hyrule Forest, they rarely were bad enough to impede my enjoyment of the game.

    Sound Design: 9/10

    The soundtrack of this game, which mostly has tracks inspired by Impressionists like Claude Debussy, is beautiful. It matches the underlying emotions rather than the action, it gets an incredible amount of timbres out of piano and percussion, and it makes great use of motifs throughout. The sound effects are perfect for everything, although they often overpower the music. The voice acting is average, but there are two major problems with it. First, Zelda and Mipha sound exactly the same. I'm sure the actresses did the best they could, that was probably a casting problem at Nintendo of America. Second, the voice acting always overpowers the music in some way. This is especially noticeable with Mipha, who has a soft voice THAT IS REALLY LOUD.

    Gameplay: 10/10

    The gameplay is not perfect, for it has the weapon durability system. This has been a love-it-or-hate-it system for most people, but I am sort of in the middle. Yes, it would be better if it worked more like Dark Souls' weapon system, with blacksmiths that can repair your weapons. However, this is only a problem in the early game, where every weapon breaks in ten hits or less. Outside of the weapon durability system, everything is perfect. Every mechanic fits together in an immaculately designed world to give you complete freedom over your surrounding. It is easier to experience the joys of the mechanics than to explain them, but they give the game its identity. I do wish there were more bosses though, but that is personal preference.

    Controls: 9/10

    The controls feel good, except for one thing. Whenever I was in first-person mode, the controls felt sluggish and slow to act. In third-person mode, which is what you will be in most of the game, the controls fit like the pants Link finds around the world.

    Story: 8/10

    This game is a great lesson on how to do environmental and non-linear storytelling right. However, once you look past the amazing storytelling techniques and unique characters, the story becomes sort of generic. Sure, there a great subplot about Zelda's relationship with Link and her discovering her power, but people seem to forget that is not the main plot. Sure, it has a big impact on the tone of the main plot, but it is not the main plot. In fact, Nintendo seems to have put more effort into the subplots than the main plot. I don't know if this is a good thing or a bad thing, but I will give the story an 8 out of 10 regardless.

    Summary:

    Given the sub-scores I just gave you, most people would rate the game a 9 out of 10. Now, if that is their opinion, I'm fine with that. However, this game is truly special. It takes its amazing parts and combines them to form a whole that is greater than the sum. It knows it is not perfect, yet that does not stop it from serving immaculate gameplay in a beautiful world set to an incredible soundtrack. This game is revolutionary, artistic, refreshing, and so much more. This is the bar that open-world games will strive to reach in the future. But that is simply my opinion, and I am open to other people's opinions, so please, go into this game with an open mind, and you may be surprised what you find.    … Expand

    It's important to note that because of Hardware limitations, the draw distance of the details are reduced, and some texture like the one's used on mountains might look low resolution and some times the game might run into several frames drop, but given the magnitude of the game, it's not even worth to take in consideration on the review note.

To start off, the game-play. The game will potentially have slight FPS drops due to the systems limitations, but they're hardly noticeable in game. Lag spikes are very rare and not a problem. Second, the controls. There is much variety of things to do with Link, all of which are controlled beautifully. Even the motion controls, usually infamous in a lot of cases, work great in breath of the wild. The controls are smooth and feel right. Also, the graphics. The graphics are absolutely beautiful. The detail on the grass is the best I've ever seen in a video game and the gloom effect on the sun is fantastic. The water, even with its simple design looks like I could actually swim in it. And the game is so live! Things are constantly moving, whether its the grass or a bug or an enemy sleeping or traveler, it varies amazingly! The variety of animals is amazing itself! The game constantly contains references to past games, which i'll leave out for spoiler reasons, but if you've played other Zelda games it should come to you. Admittedly, this game is not everyone's cup of tea, it is definitely more of a challenge. I personally enjoy the challenge it gives you, in the past Zelda games were lacking challenge, and this game was actually skill based in combat and had tough enemies. This is also the first game where I felt like Zelda was a character. In the past she was more of an emotionless fill in as a princess you just HAD to safe (except for Spirit Tracks and Skyward Sword) but she felt relatable. Especially when you get really deep in the story, you fall in love with her. And the stories absolutely amazing, especially when you collect all the parts of the story. All in all, Breath of the Wild is my favorite Zelda game and favorite game in general, i'm excited to see more of what Nintendo has for us!… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This game is the ultimate Zelda game, as it's challenging in a way that it isn't frustrating and it is very satisfying. The scenery is beautiful and the characters are really interesting and you feel like you are making a real impact in the world. The cutscenes and voice acing are on point and surviving in this world is a fun challenge, as it can be difficult without the proper equipment and the blood moons are a challenge itself.

    The story feels unique while keeping the same core of the original games and the open world is not only beautiful but massive, and the shrines are a fun challenge that test not only your combat skills, but also your intellect.

    I got this game yesterday and I haven't been able to put it down since and if you can, i'd recommend picking this game up as this will give you endless fun for ages!    … Expand

However, I’m glad to say that my worries have been set aside!

    I’ve been playing the game for over 30 hours now and there is still no end in sight, which may seem tedious but in fact the game always gives you new objectives, whether it be self-set or in your quest log. On the topic of self-set objectives, I’ll always find myself distracted from my main goal. For example, I climb onto a mountain and see a shrine in the distance (a mini dungeon that there are 120 of) and start paragliding towards it. I then notice a camp of Bokoblins and decide to ambush them instead. By the time I’m at the shrine, it’s already been a good 15 minutes!

    I won’t spoil anything here, but the story is refreshing, even for a Zelda game, and blends perfectly with the open-world and exploration. Most of the game’s characters are unique and memorable and I’ve even found myself in the market for some of the Amiibo!

    Speaking of Amiibo, they offer a great boost to those who already have them. Amiibo can be used once a day and provide Link with some random food, materials and herbs. However, use a Legend of Zelda Amiibo and you’ll be rewarded with some special items! For example, by using the 8-Bit Link Amiibo you will obtain the outfit from the original Legend of Zelda and also some Rupees as an added bonus. I already own quite a few Amiibo myself so I was pleased to see them utilised so well!

    I’ve been reading some reports on framerate issues and I’m happy to say that they are VERY rare. The only two instances I can give are in the water at the very first shrine (but strangely no other water) and at Kakariko Village. Other than that, I’ve had no problems and the Wii U version compares vey nicely to the Switch version!

    Overall, this game is a refreshing experience that can be enjoyed by anyone! The mechanics are so unique that they don’t get boring, even after 30+ hours, (although some friends of mine have logged over 70 hours) but still carry that ‘Zelda Vibe’ that makes the series instantly recognisable. Just yesterday, I went to the bathroom and came back to find my 10 year old brother exploring the world and loving it just as much as I did! I would highly recommend picking up this game!    … Expand

    An absolute masterclass in game-design and Open-World design in particular.

    This seems like a chliched phrase, but the main character in this game is not Link. It's not Zelda. It's the world of Hyrule. BREATH of the Wild is such a perfect title because this world is alive, it breathes. Everything just flows very organically. You always want to know what's around the next corner. "Oh    An absolute masterclass in game-design and Open-World design in particular.

    This seems like a chliched phrase, but the main character in this game is not Link. It's not Zelda. It's the world of Hyrule. BREATH of the Wild is such a perfect title because this world is alive, it breathes. Everything just flows very organically. You always want to know what's around the next corner. "Oh there's a little forest. Let's see if I can shoot some deer. Pick up some mushrooms while I'm at it. Maybe cut down some trees for firewood. Am I going to use my sword for that or an axe? Or better yet, I'll use the bombs, so I can spare my weapons! What's up with this giant tree? Is there a Korok hiding here? My Shiekah radar is beeping, there must be a shrine nearby... Maybe behind this hill? Oh **** there's a guardian! Do I run away? Try to deflect his beam? Attack him with arrows? Should I use ancient arrows or should I save them for later?"

    This really is an open-world game in the best sense of the expression. There are no endless text boxes explaining super-complicated control schemes and gameplay systems. The tutorial doesn't last for 20 hours+. There are no missions where you have to do EXACTLY what the game tells you to or you fail, the very opposite of what an open-world sandbox experience should be like (Looking at you, Rockstar...).

    Taking the first step outside the cave where you start and having a look at the landscape is just magical. A whole world for you to explore.

    After the game introduces you to the main mechanics in a fun way on The Great Plateau, you're free to go wherever you want and do whatever you want. This is the magic of BotW. Real Freedom. You can explore every nook and cranny, climb every mountain and get every upgrade imaginable. Or you can head straight to the final boss and try your luck with him with your three hearts (if you get that far). You can solve puzzles and defeat enemies in whatever way you like to. Whatever works, works. Better yet, things pretty much always work the way that you would expect them to, knowing the rules of this world.

    For a common criticism: Many people seemed to expect this game to have the same kind of memorable, typical Zelda tunes that played in past Zelda games like Ocarina of Time. But just like with everything else, Nintendo took kind of a different approach here. First, you have to acknowledge that now pretty much the whole game (aside from the shrines and the Titans) is "overworld". So if there was a BotW Overworld-Theme, it would be playing all the time and you would probably get sick of it really quickly. Second, the "lack" of music really reinforces the atmosphere. Again, BREATH of The Wild. Breathing. Space. Quietness. I know a lot of people in our frenzied culture cannot stand to have even a moment of peace and quiet and need constant stimulation. But I personally really like the choice that was made here. Just simple, quiet piano or no music at all when traversing the vast stretches of Hyrule. It really helps immerse yourself in the feeling of exploring this empty, ruined land, that is paradoxically filled with life, secrets and imagination. Plus, there actually are quite a few noteable tracks in this game, like the music in Kakariko or Hateno. The former, after having been portrayed in the past as a small, lazy town and, after that, a Wild West settlement, has now been reimagined as a beautiful Japanese village.

    Another common criticism is the presentation of the story or the lack thereof. Now, I think the way it was handled, through collectable flashbacks, is perfect for this game. This way, there is no story that needs to be advanced before you can get to the final boss. If you want to know the backstory, you can collect the memories. If you don't care, you don't have to, and everything in the game still makes sense. Again, everything in this game is about freedom and giving the player choice. And personally, I really liked the idea of the lost battle 100 years ago and exploring the ruined Hyrule, even if it may just have been a practical decision by the developers.

    On top of all the aforementioned positives, there is the classical Nintendo/Zelda charm. The world is just filled with memorable, likeable characters. Every little NPC has a personality to them. Even though you are exploring a wild landscape by yourself (there is no companion character like Navi or Phi), you never feel alone or lonely.

    Nintendo tried something new and very different for this iteration of the Zelda franchise, and it paid off BIG TIME. BotW is my favourite Zelda game and my all-time favourite video game in general. It's as close to perfect as you can possibly get. Everything is just designed and thought out so well and polished to make the experience very intuitive and the best that it can be. It's a masterpiece and a true work of art.    … Expand

    Zelda: BotW is one of those games that can really help one re-kindle the love and passion towards video games once again in these dark times. The LoZ series has never exactly suffered of lack of quality, but its highest highs are so towering, that even "pretty good" results may seem pathetic in comparison at times.
    Breath Of The Wild tackles two seemingly opposing tasks at once: taking    Zelda: BotW is one of those games that can really help one re-kindle the love and passion towards video games once again in these dark times. The LoZ series has never exactly suffered of lack of quality, but its highest highs are so towering, that even "pretty good" results may seem pathetic in comparison at times.
    Breath Of The Wild tackles two seemingly opposing tasks at once: taking the series back to its VERY roots, as in NES' Zelda 1, and providing a modern, truly open-world experience as well. Most of the fans already do know that LoZ1 was technically one of the earliest "open world" games, with no real guidance forcing you down to a specific path. Thus, BotW mimicking this design style is not exactly anything new, but how it goes performing this task is nothing short of unique and amazing.

    After the relative short, yet already very non-patronizing "tutorial section", which itself has more freedom and features than some full games, the player is free to explore the now ruined world of Hyrule as they please. You get only a couple pointers that you may choose to follow at your own pace, like the ultimate goal of defeating the final evil that constantly lurks in the horizon, but ultimately BotW is all about free, self-imposed exploration, discovery, and improving yourself in order to take on even bigger challenges. Unlike in most other, modern open-world games, you're not given a pile of tasks and checklists to complete; instead, your own curiosity guides you at all times, to adventures not written down as a script. It's quite common to climb on top of a good vantage point, scan the landscape, see one or two interesting details in the environment, and start proceeding towards them ... only to get distracted mid-way by something totally different and forget what you were doing originally.

    You get a handful of magical items almost right off the bat, and it's up to you to figure out when and how to use these dynamic tools during your quest. Not only that, the game seemingly lacks traditional obstacles, as just about every single wall, cliff and tree can be climbed. This vertical freedom truly opens up the world in never before seen ways, but at the same time it's balanced with the simple stamina system and the dynamic, area-specific weather conditions. You can help your character's own performance in numerous ways, such as by equipping various clothes that provide stat boosts, or by cooking dishes and potions that provide a momentary effects.

    Which brings me to the next innovation and milestone of this game: its pile of intertwined systems and physics. Just about everything seems to interact with everything in a logical, albeit in exaggerated ways in BotW: grass and wooden items may catch fire, metal and water conduct electricity, trees may be chopped down and used to form bridges or make-shift boulder traps, fire-based weapons and hot food protect you from freezing blizzards and cold items from burning heat ... the list goes on. Ergo, a smart player can exploit these systems in many clever ways, tackling obstacles in innovative ways, thus saving you from the trouble of just walking and trying to smack things dead.

    If you go around lurking on the internet, you may find nitpicks about most things you may discover in the Hyrule to boil down to two types of collectibles. While you indeed will get very familiar with Shrines and Seeds, make no mistake: the game has tons of other content as well. However, because the joy of exploration and discovering things yourself is such a centric part of BotW's appeal, I'd rather avoid spoiling too much of these elements. I can however say that old-time fans may locate things that will certainly tickle their nostalgic heart.

    Audio-visually BotW is top-notch. The non-realistic art style helps make the game world feel more cohesive, believable even with all its magical feats. Yet it is indeed very impressive to see some of the more modern effects, such as screen-space reflections, wet-surface effects and dynamic lighting, to be used in a WiiU game. At best, the game truly looks beautiful, and the atmospheric, sparingly used soundtrack only enhances the exploration.

    Controls are nothing special, but I don't feel like they ever got in my way. Some of the menu designs clearly hint at the game being designed to use the touch-screen at one point, but unfortunately now you can only use the tablet for gyro-aiming (big help when using a bow!) and to toggle the image between TV and the tablet.

    tl;dr: Breath Of The Wild is THE most "open" open-world game ever. The most dynamic and detailed open world game, ever. One of the least handholding open-world game, ever. This game's an adventure, not a story-rich fairytale you consume in one sitting. And I dare to say, this might be the first game to truly rival the GOTYAY titles like Ocarina Of Time and Majora's Mask. And I don't easily give such praise.    … Expand

Implementa elementos de otros juegos de Zelda, y crea un sandbox y juego de rol con un mapa enorme, este juego cambia tu perspectiva sobre que es un The Legend of Zelda en el buen sentido, el único Zelda que le hace competencia a este es Ocarina of Time, el cual para mi, junto con Breath of the Wild, son los 2 mejores videojuegos de Nintendo y probablemente de la historia. Las mazmorras no son tan largas como en otros Zeldas ni tan complicadas, pero la sensación de completarlas y liberar cada una de las bestias divinas es de lo mejor, el juego te da total libertad, mundo abierto, mapa enorme, misiones principales y secundarias muy buenas, el mejor apartado musical de la saga junto con The Wind Waker y Spirit Tracks, gráficos HD, ¿Qué mas puedes pedir en un juego?, si es cierto que la versión de Wii U a veces baja de los 30 fps, pero se comprende ya que el juego tiene muchos elementos en pantalla, y solo hay pantallas de carga cuando te teletransportas y algunas pausas pero mínimas antes de las cinemáticas (menos de 1 segundo), también cabe recalcar que los bajones de fps o frames se dan de forma muy puntual y rara sobre todo en Wii U, en N Switch los bajones son más raros aún. Si eres fan de The Lgend of Zelda, de sus buenas historias, de la música, de juegos largos y de Nintendo, este juego tiene todo lo necesario para engancharte durante muchas horas, e incluso puede que repitas la historia varias veces ya que el juego, de verdad se ve muy bien en cuanto a gráficos y es bonito el mapa. Este juego, sin duda, es el mejor juego de Wii U, y si no lo tienes deberías comprarlo.… Expand

    An absolutely stunning, breathtaking masterpiece, which may very well be the most beautiful game I've ever played. The entire game is gorgeous, scenic, and atmospheric to a near-magical level.

Breath of the Wild doesn't have a quantifiable difficulty due to its RPG elements, so the challenge distribution and pacing is arbitrary. The entire experience comes together to provide one of the most whimsical, amazing adventures possible. Despite some obtrusive storytelling, Breath of the Wild remains one of the greatest games of all time.… Expand

    One of very few games I would give a 10 to. LoZ: Breath of the Wild is a masterpiece. The world, the difficulty, and the openness of the game all contribute to a roller coaster ride of emotion and adventure. As you play as Link, the plot of the game is almost entirely up to you.

What I mean by that is that "going off the beaten path" is not just an option but is a requirement for this game. This game is not the destination but the JOURNEY. Every time you open your map, you are just amazed at the sheer size of this world. As for the combat, it's relatively simple but still painstakingly difficult. So by the end of the game, you will notice that you have developed as a player (without some ridiculous buff or power-up).

    The graphics and enemy AI have received a massive upgrade from the previous games. In fact, almost everything is different. The only thing similar to the other games is the three main characters, the triforce, and the master sword. As a long time Zelda fan, this is the best one yet.    … Expand

    A masterpiece without equal. This is for me without doubt the best Zelda game and the best game of all time. The vast open world feels so alive and real and it's just incredible to explore Hyrule. Nintendo made almost everything right with this one. It's as near to perfect as it gets. Must play but a bit better on the Switch.

    I have only had botw for a couple of days, but it is already on par with the greats: oot, twilight, and it is probably the best of them all.

    I had such a great time with this game ! Sadly I don't have too much time to dif deeper, but I will definitely pick it up again some time soon. It's amazing, I had what I would call "a real esthetic experience" in this game. It really feels like liberty like no other game.

    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.

    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.
