Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild Spoiler-Free Review

[@projared]

Want more Zelda action? I started a NO STORY SPOILERS gameplay series here!! ►► kzbin.info/www/bejne/i37YpX18mNqFr5Y

[@hathorliderc]

According to your review, one should play this game, similarly to say, a Bethesda game (Fallout and Skyrim come to mind), where you just kind of take it in as you go, and discovering things for yourself.

[@Gboy86ify]

ProJared Hey is the graphical difference large enough for me to buy a switch?

[@TheLuckCB]

Graphics are pretty much the same, the difference is in the resolution, shading, draw distance and fps drops, also the wii u version has more fog to "make up" for less draw distance.

[@tylerpancake780]

ProJared so is it true that Nintendo isn't using CDs anymore

[@SuperHoodCat]

ProJared is it worth buying a switch?

[@MatthewRichardson1]

When you thought the great plateau was big and then get a paraglider.

[@wakpijor1368]

Just look at the map

[@MatthewRichardson1]

NormalAsian Guy meh most of the map is obscured when you start. Also where I live you don't get one as a pack in.

[@wakpijor1368]

Yeah

[@BHFFS]

you can still see the size of it relative to the great plateau....since you can see the borders of the other areas.

[@TheRealBowser]

I kept thinking that most of the edges of the world would be cut off, that I would be limited in various ways from exploring past a point. That the massive Gerudo Highland mountains might just be inaccessible 'background' terrain. This game has continually impressed me on just how expansive it truly is, over and over and over... Hell though, by the time you reveal the map fully, you'll have a difficult time pointing out where the plateau even is due to how small it is compared to the rest of the world. I'm sure this effect wasn't coincidental.

[@user-nr6gy5lh6b]

Holy shit the new Hydlide game is looking great!

[@Dzznny]

[@Dantheman_1942]

[@bcm8984]

It’s been years and I still think about how fun this game and how much it blew me away

[@jonathanwilson7949]

Same

[@xXBlazingDragonXx1]

Guys, Jared said that the frame rate would "occasionally" drop to low teens. That does not mean that the game is played in 10 frames the entire time. I'm sure a majority of the game runs smoothly, and it's only once in a while when a lot of graphics are interacting with each other at once that the rate drops. Besides, it's a possibility that this could be improved in a patch. The game still looks amazing, and I've never known Jared to give a game a great score that didn't deserve it. All "sponsorships" aside, Jared is pretty honest in his reviews.

[@lionhardt75]

Agreed. Several people are saying that it's already been improved with the patch that went live today.

[@xXBlazingDragonXx1]

Dope. I have yet to play, but I WILL enjoy it. Guaranteed.

[@KelpieWhite]

Patch? Neat!

[@Flyinglevel]

just lock the game to 720fps in docked mode...

[@herpderp4289]

Can confirm, the game still has framerate drops in 720p but I rarely notice them compared to what I've heard other people saying.

[@ap3productions81]

[Spoiler Alert of the video not the game] I'll be honest, when you rated this game a 10/10, my heart stopped. I know how much you don't usually rate games 10/10. So the fact that you did with BotW has a greater significance than one would usually think.

[@ryandemboski6282]

Andrew P. Soberon same happened to me

[@Cyannas]

Same. With all the 10s already out there it must have been tempting to judge it more harshly based on a reaction to percieved overhype. His voice really sounded like he was gearing up to drop a 9/9.5.

[@pacoroto]

Really? He CAN'T put anything other than a 10 to the game, it's a SPONSORED video, Nintendo wouldn't aprove on him rating it not even a 9...

[@rathernotdisclose8064]

That is completely untrue. That is not how it works lol.

[@Paul118GF]

The video is not Sponsored, all opinions are purely his own. He said that at the beginning, and in his Switch Video. He got the console and game for review reasons, which isn't uncommon, especially with big KZbin and Twitch personalities. If he said that, and Nintendo still payed him to give a 10/10, that would be illegal; it's a federal crime and he could get heavily fined or even have his channel shut down if it were found out.

[@CapnShades]

ProJared is one of the most critical reviewers I have ever known in my life. He always make sure to grade games as honestly as possible, taking into account every flaw, every touch, every ounce of craftsmanship put into any game. So when he gives any game a perfect ten, YOU SHUT UP AND LISTEN.

[@Ryroe]

And it is raining tens and perfects and 100s everywhere. You *know* this shit is good.

[@nintendopwns11]

What? Sorry, but that's a bold face lie. He gave Bioshock Infinite a 10/10, and that game was by far the worse in it series. Now I not saying that this case is similar, but saying he is complete honest and unbias is far from the truth.

[@VladNorris]

Being totally unbiased is impossible(let alone he had his reasons to give Bioshock Infinite such high score...and I fail to see how it's "the worst in the series" just because you say it is...but that's another can of worms) but he's still as fair as one can get(he rarely gets petty scores that either over praise the game or bashes it beyond what it deserves)

[@rodrich182]

There were games that he gave a good score that I really did not like. So a good reviewer depends on whoever wants to listen to them. I always critized Jared for giving games with some linearity a thumbs down. I like some linearity on my games, and full freedom sometimes is overwhelming and becomes boring. So, I take jareds opinion with a pinch of salt.

[@Belgiumdoesnotkickas]

He didn't. He ignored the massive framerate drops and still gave it a 10. If he truly was then he would give the game a lower score because of the framerate issues but seeing as Nintendo gets a free pass all the time he didn't take that in account.

[@CringePotato]

My biggest memory so far in this game so far was me riding a raft and pushing it with the leaf and I got it onto land but I could still use it. So I went up a hill on it then rammed down a hill running over animals and skeletal bokoblins.

[@tythesmonk4819]

The Unfunny White Kid hey free meat

[@castblast4063]

I ran a horse off a cliff, it was amazing, we hit a bokoblin in the head and it died

[@eversplode7792]

Mine is probably... OH I REMEMBER! I was riding my horse, then a bokoblin on a horse saw me, but it was a little bit behind me, so I shot a bomb arrow at it, but it hit the ground under his horse, so what I got to see was a corpse flying out of an explosion. Doesn't sound to funny, but it was HILARIOUS.

[@cian2168]

I only got this game recently, and I haven't beaten it yet, but my favorite memory is when I accidentally knocked my horse off a cliff and it died ;-; My actual favorite memory is when I learned to parry, dodge and utilise slow motion in the "Major test of strength" trial. I had spent so long on it, failing over and over again, and after finally learning to perfect these moves not only helped me beat this shrine, but also helped me with the whole game. I used these skills on every fight since. Failure is the best teacher, as this game taught me.

[@mikkmakk901]

ON. A. PORTABLE.

[@MrMrTravman]

Yeah, and this is what makes the switch so great and totally worth it. I have a 3,000 dollar PC whenever I want to push cutting graphics, and I'll have a switch for its awesome portability and amazing titles like zelda ;)

[@dusknoir64]

That probably explains those frame rate dips. Outside of just how good it looks of course.

[@Bowser_Plush]

dusknoir64 my question is does it happen on wiiu and is it worse? If it's worse then I won't be buying the game 2 times

[@Jordanimate]

Actually it works better on the portable than it does on the TV

[@usersinvideos]

Amusingly, according to some reviews the frame drops are less severe in handheld mode than in TV mode

[@ZaGorudan]

See that mountain? You can climb it.

[@mikkmakk901]

that takes me back

[@MugenJin2]

The Goldn Guy in an open world game? Na

[@Highwind_]

The Goldn Guy it just works

[@dalmationblack]

Link is practically a Skyrim horse in this game

[@Slat3]

What about that other mountain?

[@smashliker]

It almost seems like people are salty about Nintendo making a good game, judging by the comments...

[@Phantom1op]

it is actually sad and funny at the same time with how dedicated these people are in trying to invalidate this games high praise.

[@DraphEnjoyer]

Its incredibly mediocre but is held up by the Nintendo charm.

[@IWantToStayAtYourHouse]

+MrZurata and how would you know that? You havent even played the game

[@someone-ji2zb]

I doubt that is the case for most. I think many people who are a fan of this channel can tell when a review is mostly based around bias, especially when he doesn't even touch base on certain issues and even goes as far to say framerate doesn't matter.

[@manniefaces]

They made an open world game, wow, that's original.

[@buibuiopolismayor7329]

This really does brings back memories before a time of youtube when you buy a game, play, experience it fully, and get stuck for days trying to figure things out. Now in this age of information overload, with all those let's plays and spoilers, a lot of people have just jumped to watch the end without experience the journey. That completely defeats the purpose of the game. So I'm going to wait and play it for myself. I know it will be great.

[@buibuiopolismayor7329]

LOL but in all honesty, lazy people are going to be lazy no matter what, they probably go out and look at tutorials on "how to find green tunic" instead of exploring themselves ~

[@acebrown6859]

Speedz Mmmm, not really, I'm all for avoiding spoilers, and I personally don't use the amiibo, but most things people want are exclusive so you can't actually just work to get what you want, plus the weapons can still break and there are better armors and weapons you can get from the real game

[@louiegallagher990]

Speedz I started using amiibo, because of the exclusive content (Outfit of Time) and didn't realize that the items would op for the beginning, but the amiibo are still cool to use. While they are just a way to get items easily, it's better than the amiibos doing nothing at all.

[@zackmhuntr25]

I feel bad now for looking up the last 4 shrines I need to get the tunic. I think that should get a pass right? lol

[@sebaschan-uwu]

Maybe you like exploring and being stuck for days, but when I want to play a game, i actaully want to play it and complete it not think about how I can get past it. I will if I have to but theres no way Im going to stay stuck unless i know for sure I can figure it out. Im not about that trial and error shit. Its the same as someone just telling you what to do

[@SsnakeBite]

Waaaiiiit a minute... is that... a third-person game... with centred camera?! A modern third-person action game that doesn't use that stupid over-the-shoulder camera?! GLOOOOORIAAAAAA!!

[@xavierh.5102]

that's probably because it's focused more on melee combat, in a game with guns over the shoulder makes a bit more sense. i do agree though, it is nice.

[@trevorsiple8433]

SsnakeBite that's more of a third person shooter thing really. Games like Dark Souls, Dragons Dogma, Nioh, etc. also use this camera

[@14hourz82]

[@MarkP0131]

If I remember correctly, he also game Monster Hunter 3 a ten as well. Either way, you know its gonna be good if he gave it a ten

[@MarkP0131]

M1YAK2 I thought he had a video where he just fanboyed over one of the MH games. I guess I was wrong

[@RedNovaStorm]

He also gave a 10 to Shovel Knight

[@TheOobo]

His one minute review gave Monster hunter 3 a 12/10 because he loves it so much, but he did a more serious review later and gave it an 8/10. If I recall correctly.

[@jeremiecampeau-poirier2636]

"Don't play with a guide", the phrase i tell myself everytime i start a new game (any LoZ, Dark Souls, ...) and after 20 minutes : "Screw that, i don't know where to go, i'm gonna look up on the internet"

[@jeremiecampeau-poirier2636]

and proud of it

[@attoloco]

Its kind of sad how non-nintendo players nor zelda fans are trying so hard to bring this game down by mentioning frame rate issues and "originality" issues... yes cuz no other game has had frame rate or loading screen issues before, and the concept of this game did not originate in the original zelda over 26 years ago... it is a great game, deal with it, and try to enjoy it, you might even like it in the end.

[@wadu7205]

Just hell the Witcher had considerable frame rate issues on consoles.

[@user-to1su2iy4d]

It's not just "non-nintendo" players. Getting 5 FPS in towns is a serious problem.

[@bubermarcus8607]

Solid Nips 5 fps?At most it drops to 17 fps and that's on WiiU, and it's only for a few seconds.

[@Rayhaku808]

I heard the fps issues got patched

[@doubleasworkshop1692]

Neil Whitaker let's be real. if you're on youtube or anyother social media, you'll see people are already walking with the switch, unless all you know are basement dwellers

[@DeadmauHigh5]

Wow. So many people giving it 10/10.. I'm just happy and excited for Aonuma at this point

[@visoredgruntR34]

He should just drop the mic now and leave on this high note before he goes Miyamoto and people aren't really sure what they will get

[@Evenmoresteven]

You know Aonuma didn't direct the game right? He was just a producer. Hidemaro Fujibayashi directed it. The same guy that did Minish Cap and Skyward Sword.

[@noneofyourbusiness1998]

Techsplorer I would love to see him make his own new ip one day.

[@weregretohio7728]

Reminds me of when Game Informer gave Skyward Sword a 10. Sorry, it's impossible for me to forget.

[@benlink202forever]

It's weird to see so many people get mad at this one review for being a review. You know everyone has an opinion on everything. So seeing 10/10 scores shouldn't always be the true resolve for a games content. What people should do is actually play the game. If you have a Wii U, play it on the Wii U. But don't give shit opinions that aren't going to matter until you play the game and look at all of what it has, and then put your own opinion on it.

[@Phantom1op]

it is not even just this video, people are doing this across the board, almost every video that I have visited that have given this game high praise have similar comments sections.

[@Jeremiah15100]

Ben Link so then no one can get mad at ign because "they gave muh pokemanz a bad review"

[@paulgiddings3258]

Phantom1op cuz it's a great game

[@benlink202forever]

Give reasoning, both of you. Because expressing a statement can only get you somewhere.

[@benlink202forever]

I could blame everyone for this tbh. But that wouldn't be fair. So I say to people are only saying shit because they haven't experienced the game, to experience it and actually give a more concise and well thought out opinion. The general public has responsibility to not act like a bunch of idiots and say unfactual opinions that won't matter in the long run for the games actual content. I will say that people have the right to criticize Nintendos way of whitelisting specific reviewers that will give mostly positive reviews, but not on the game as a whole.

[@JustQuibbs]

Just going to leave my two cents here: I had the rare chance to sit down with a friend who just that day bought Loz:BoW and after my own experience see the Review of ProJared. Everything he said resonated with me. It is an experience to be had. In my own opinion it takes some getting used to and it is so different from other Zelda games, but in the end it is a fun experience. Now keep in mind everyone has a different expectation and different taste. However I just want to point out that Nintendo once stated to make an open world Zelda game and then disappointed with Skyward Sword. Breath of the Wild is the game we wanted back then and for any Zelda fan this game is that 10/10. However don't let me put words in your mouth, you still got your own favorite, but this one might be the one that finally overtakes mine. For the non-Zelda fans but for those who do enjoy openworld RPG games this is one you could pick up if you want it more casual. The humor in this game is cracking me up. There are a bunch of mechanics in this game I haven't experienced before and enough customization options to keep it enjoyable. Fair is fair, you can only play as Link, but putting him in some hot chicks outfit makes my day. Have a good day, Y'all!

[@LunarAce64]

If a game gets a 10/10, that means it's worth your time and money, it doesn't mean it's perfect. Those who complain about 900p need to suck it up. This isn't Xbox or Playstation who try their hardest at making you throw money at them for a slightly upgraded console each time that only has a little difference in features. If you care about system power, then you need to buy a PC and if you do, then you need to sell all the console stuff you have just for it and if you have a PC, then congrats you made a worthwhile investment. Getting back to topic, Nintendo legitimately focuses on making something new each time, even if it isn't the most popular or the strongest when compared to other stuff. And then we have people are whining about frame rate drops. 1. Nintendo already patched that. 2. Other games like *Witcher 3* and *Skyrim" which are considered amazing, also suffered from frame drops at certain times. And to those people who are legitimately saying "Is it worth $360" are honestly kinda stupid. Not to be rude, but that argument can be made for ANY game in existence.

[@boring1116]

I think its funny how some people are hating on this game and Jared despite most of them not playing it themselves. People seem to just be hating on it because its a zelda game and in few moments the frames will drop low. The frame rate was never an issue when I played it. If people think that this game's frame rate issues are bad at launch, then I bet they have a pretty bad time with the Witcher and Skyrim when they came out. I found it enjoyable and fun to play, you should definately try it out for yourself if you already have a Wii U, or plan on buying a switch anyways. I'd give it a solid 9/10, but my rating holds no backbone anyways so I'd just say try it out. Also, don't send hate my way until you've tried it for yourself. Half of it in this comment section is nothing but exaggeration anyways. No TL;DR here btw.

[@bobjoe4536]

I'm still super worried about the Wii U versions frame rate, if the switch has some frame rate issues as a brand new console, then I don't know how bad it will be on the Wii U.

[@DKPaladinX]

It probably will be the other way around. The Wii U is a very well known console, while the Switch is the new boy in town.

[@bobjoe4536]

DKPaladinX yea good point,. Thanks for calming my nerves about it :D

[@joeyjojoshabadoo2508]

bob joe It will probably run better on the Wii U. Specially considering the Switch version is pretty much a port

[@Evnyofdeath]

Nope. The reason the game took so long to develope is in part because they took it apart and then put it back together to try and optimize it for the Switch. My only guess for the frame rate issues is that because they pushed the visual quality to the absolute limit it stutters a bit.

[@hugosilva4411]

The frame rate dies when you are in villages/towns. Mainly in Zora's Domain, the frames just give up when you try to walk around there. In the fields and open areas it runs greatly, just in areas with heavy grass like really dense forests it stutters a bit, nothing compared to what happens when you reach a village, tho.

[@theadventuresofkirbys8092]

[@Lalle524]

Hey, if people are enjoying the game, great for them. I have no personal interest in the legend of zelda, never have, but it's great to see that Nintendo finally released a game that took steps forward, instead of wallowing in the past.

not really fair to accuse Nintendo of wallowing in the past when XBOX and Sony have been competing to see who can produce the most derivative FPS experience with Call of Duty 187, or the next gritty 3rd person survival game with main characters that have less personality than Steven Seagal.

[@plasmaoctopus1728]

[@BoogieBunny]

Can we just appreciate the clip played at 5:20

[@FreakinSweet1987]

The thing that had me worried, and ultimately what Jared didn't really make mention of, is that the things that make Zelda... Zelda don't really seem to be present here. In all 3D Zelda games, story and iconic staples have become what makes these games so beloved. Character development, the green tunic, the Master Sword, things we typically latch onto that make us care about the world seem inexplicably absent. All of these gameplay elements are great, but not at the cost of story. I'm hoping it manages both equally well.

[@MugenJin2]

FreakinSweet1987 you need to play more video games if Zelda is what you go to for story and character development

[@alexappsapp1332]

So zelda games can never come up with something new? we should be stuck at the same shit all the time?

[@FreakinSweet1987]

ActionmanFX If you take away Mario's jump, all the enemies, Peach, Bowser and everything else, and toss him in a death match arena, is it still Mario? New is fine, and BotW looks excellent. It just seems like they took the "Zelda" out and just made it like any random open world that has less affiliated with the franchise.

[@Noah-sd8hx]

I'm pretty sure it's all there, but because it's spoiler free he can't talk about that.

[@duntemdraws310]

FreakinSweet1987 tbh I'd much rather enjoy this game than the typical Phantom Hourglass Zelda games. The puzzles actually look fun in this and the freedom is what I like. To me it's just another approach to the Zelda world.

[@supersmashbro596]

after playing some months, i agree. one nitpick i'd like to add is that the variety of monsters and wildlife start to wear a bit thin. i mean, there is still a good amount to fight and hunt, but i think they could have done a bit more with the beastiary. i mean, i'd like to see things like darknuts, like-likes, peahats, dodongos, ghinis and such. i mean, these were zelda staples themselves, and yet they are oddly absent. this game is absolutely fantastic though, and is probably the best zelda game ever made. i can see this become the new formula, with some tweaks.

I have Ocarina of time on both the N64 and the 3DS (got the 3DS version a month ago) ,Twilight Princess and Skyward Sword. I have also tried Windwaker on the gamecube once with my cousin. None of these games grabbed me as much as BotW did, and in none of them was i able to progress smoothly and intuitively without looking up a guide. I don't think they are bad games or anything, just that they are not as good as BotW. The brilliant, sheer genius of game design of BotW is what ultimately hooked me to it,i think. I can honestly find no hard fault with it, when looking at it as a whole. Especially loved the combat, the bow-shooting and slow-time mechanics, mounted combat, etc and also absolutely loved the art-style, it looks so beautiful, i'm simply amazed. For me, it is a true *game* in the most literal sense of the word, since it allows you to play with it truly, with Huryle being a giant playground, with a simplistic yet enough (for me) story of "you are the hero, kill the bad guy." That's all i need. I have gone years since the last time a video game felt so much like... a game. All these other video games have heavy stories, multiple paths/choices, etc which, when coupled with the open-world genre (for me) don't have that good of a result. I will leave my story-heavy games to VNs and true RPGs like KOTOR. I don't want story getting in the way of such a game as BotW. For me, the overall result, is truly a 10/10. Not only the greatest Zelda game, but a great game in general.

I think giving you everything right from the beginning is one of the reasons I was so bored with this game. There were no interesting quest items that allow me to take on enemies in creative ways, or open up more parts of the world. Instead I was using the same four runes and weapons that all work largely the same, fighting the same five types of enemies, finding the same little Korok seed puzzles and by hour five everything just felt, well, samey. I've never played another open world game, but as a Zelda fan, I was left wanting more.

[@jeremywright9511]

I can understand what you mean. If they added a few more runes and scattered them about the world that would provide incentive to venture out in search of more than just shrines. Acquiring new tools has always been central to the Zelda experience but that was watered down in BotW. I feel like more could have been done to create these "wow this item/discovery is amazing and gamechanging!" moments, however, I personally still feel it to be an excellent game regardless and one of the few games that I genuinely wanted to play for the experience alone. If the next game can provide the classic Zelda feel with the same expansiveness and agency it would be perfection in my eyes. As an aside, if you have still yet to play say, Skyrim, that itself is quite the open world adventure and possibly a good alternative on the switch or otherwise.

[@Swissgar0]

The Breakfast Megapowers It looks just as good, abd it seems to have slightly better frame rate. (For now) Who knows, maybe the Wii u version runs a little better because it was developed on it? Or maybe because it renders the game at 720p. All I know, is that you definitely won't be missing out on anything just because you play it on last gen. Hell, even Projared suggested not to buy the switch if you're only interested in playing Breath Of The Wild.

[@trippledot1887]

Swissgar0 No, the Switch version actually runs faster, which is a surprise to me. My friend went to E3 and the Switch party thing and he said that the Switch one runs better. I trust his word, hes a pretty cool dude, but if you have doubts about the FPS, I cant personally say.

[@Swissgar0]

TrippleDot I have the Switch and Wii u version (32gb) I did a frame test, in the same areas, with tall grass and multiple explosions, the switch will drop about 3-5 frames in heavily populated plains with grass, and 8-10 frames for multiple on-screen explosions. My Wii u didn't seem to drop more than 3 for grass, and explosions no more than 5 fps. I dunno if it will be patched (Probably will honestly) But I'm just being honest man. However, load times on Switch are significantly faster, of course evidenced by the fact it runs off of cartridges. So, pros and cons.

[@dashdingo-aceit-nixon9738]

wii u versions has some frame drop in parts but it still runs fine - im playing it for wii u. still amazing.

[@mrcyberpunk]

yeah I'm annoyed that ProJared didn't compare the versions. You can't just go "oh the games amazing" when you didn't establish if the platform powering it is an important factor in that since a lot of people are going to base buying a switch on how much better it runs on that versus the WiiU. I know he had mentioned this in a previous video but it needed to be brought up here as the review comes across as too much gushing- when really the important thing people wanted to know is "Should I buy a switch"- the answer here is no because if you have a WiiU already the game will be as enjoyable. Only reason to buy a switch is if you didn't already own the WiiU and wanted the game anyway.

For a real response, I'm pretty invested into it, the voice acting is never bad, but a lot of it is not close to great, but I still think the inclusion of voice acting is really worth it and enhances more than it hurts, it shows great potential for future games

All over the place. Starts in media res, with so much stuff that happened in the past that it doesn't stop feeling weird when NPCs recognize Link from his past epic deeds and atrocious crimes. Overall, not bad.

Legend of Zelda: breath of the wild 7.5 out of 10 to much grass

[@Agent8450]

I love the passion in this review. I too, feel as though this could easily end up being the quintessential Zelda game when all is said and done.

[@untosalminen7067]

WOW the new witcher game is out cool

[@gwenwalravens8030]

Does that mean we will get some naughty bits of Zelda, Link and Epona?

[@Ellie_deMayo]

Gwen Walravens At the same time?

[@OuroborosChoked]

The graphics look kinda shite, though. I guess that's what you'd expect porting such a graphically-intense game to Nintendo hardware. :^)

[@untosalminen7067]

Gwen Walravens and they will adopt a white haired girl with the ability to jump between worlds

[@lordenglish8002]

unto salminen I'm pretty sure it's not as great as The Witcher 3.

It's quite funny really, I played over 30+ hours of this game, and I can say I prefer it over Skyrim or Fallout 4 I played those games just as long or longer, and some key differences I noticed this game feels more rewarding when you explore. Fallout literally guides you through quest lines or essentially says "Hey go here and you'll find stuff to do." Where as breath of the wild simply says "Hey you can go to the castle or this village, but you know if you want to." and that's it, it does not guide you to any other settlement that the main story does not interact with, it does not tell you what you can do or how to do it. You do not even get a completed map until you complete it yourself, it expects you to find that on your own. It expects you as the player to use your brain not be held by the hand like 90% of other games do lately, this game does not even have a proper tutorial, and that is such a breath of fresh air. I was tired of games feeling like a naggy list of things you should do rather than just have fun and discover these things on your own. That's why so many reviews focus on avoiding spoilery content the game is quite an experience. had I not explored I would have missed entire quest lines or features the game never tells you about. Had I not ventured out on my own I would not be saying things like "Oh dang, I can't believe you can do that that's great!". Instead it'd be more like the game saying "Oh yeah, you can do this by the way! I don't know if you knew that or not, oh you can also do this, it might help you. *pats head* good boy/girl." Which then I'd be like "Oh gee, thanks.... or whatever." I don't know about everyone one else, but I get tired of a game interrupting the flow saying hey here's how to do this and that, it's better for a game to teach the player through gameplay rather than words in a paused box or a character breaking the 4th wall and saying press the X, A or Z button to do this. I'm looking at you Dead Rising series and various other old and new games.

So it's Skyrim but with Legend Of Zelda characters?

[@w2quick]

man go ahead and play skyrim right now. its verry clumsy. it was great but it has'nt aged well. this game looks so much more fluid

[@eamk887]

Ha! Even from just watching gameplay of it, I can clearly see it's not Skyrim.

[@Vyse195]

Yes, only it won't crash ever 5 minutes and there more than 5 enemy types.

[@xavierh.5102]

yeah, but it seems to have a lot less of skyrim's bad.

[@niallreid7664]

CorruptGamer And the world is more than puddle deep. Get hype.

[@howdoilogin]

So you're saying... ...you can walk, all the way to the top of that mountain. Go wherever you want, do whatever you want. It just works.
