re: The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild

SS is a weird game

Overrated by the critics and underrated by a lot of players. It suffers from exhaustion with the formula. For me that was the point where I was thinking "this is getting stale"

SS is the only Zelda I never touched.

The last Zelda game I played was Twilight Princess

It was too easy, I never got stuck once, too linear

It's really good but in making the overworld itself a puzzle they really sacrificed exploration. It's a concept they've really been trying and you see it with a link between worlds too...it seems they've finally nailed it

Across the board reports are saying Zelda constantly drops to 25-20 fps when docked to a TV on the switch.

If they can't get Zelda running smooth that's a red flag.

They say it runs fine as handheld.

I'm going to wait a bit before taking this plunge

It's unique and at the same time it's a slave to the formula

Better than TP but it just came at the exact time the formula was stale.

The music is fantastic, most cinematic of any Zelda game and story driven but it's also the easiest Zelda game, and the most linear.

I wanted to replay it but starting in oct I kind of shelved playing any Zelda so that BOTW would be fresh

great way of putting it. Exactly how I feel. I keep saying "ooh I'm going to replay it" and I always play something else

I will replay it eventually though

That is an absolutely perfect way of putting it

I guess I'm in the minority when I say that TP is probably my all time favorite Zelda. It's probably a toss up with that and OoT, but I loved everything about TP and feel Midna is one of the better side characters in the series. The wolf stuff didn't bother me at all, which I know was a sticking point for a lot of people.

The problem with it is that it isn't creative at all and they shoved Ganondorf in for no reason. He should not have been in that game. Hell, Zelda herself isn't really much of a plot element here either. Should have just left it with Zant. It tries way too hard to be Ocarina of Time.
