On this channel, I like to cover games that have failed, games that have died, nostalgic stuff, and games that are awesome. In today's video, we talk about Breath of the Wild and why it is such an amazing game!

[@LeshenLord]

Your criticism of the music confuses me. It is intentionally simple and subtle much of the time. The soft piano tracks that play in the overworld keep you in a calm state of mind while exploring the lonely landscape and also bring a sense of melancholy fitting for a ruined world. When you go into populated towns, more obvious music comes to the forefront and all of those tracks are bursting with the personality of their respective towns. Likewise, battles bring tracks ranging from upbeat (e.g. typical bokoblins) to very epic (e.g. Ganon). I believe the music is very well utilized considering how the music is used to facilitate the various themes of the game at different times. And must I mention the Hyrule Castle theme...?

[@mannygarcia3217]

Well said man

[@StephenN.Parker]

I think most western are not family with this style of using subtle/no soundtrack. I will take Ghibli movies (which this game take inspiration from a lot) for example, in the original version, there are a lot of scene with no soundtrack, just sound of wind blowing through the grass/hill/etc., but when it was localized, Ghibli add some soundtrack on those scene because western are so used to hearing music all the time.

[@erwinfelis4613]

As awesome as this game is, and as often as I play it, I think it's my least favorite soundtrack in a video game. I will admit that the Hyrule Castle theme music is awesome, though. Just not a big fan of the other music in the game.

[@LeshenLord]

@@erwinfelis4613 in any video game ever? Even just among every video game you've ever played? You don't think that's a little overly dramatic? You must not have played many games if you really think this. And you did not express any reasoning for why you think this, either.

[@erwinfelis4613]

@@LeshenLord Not in every video game ever. Obviously only in video games I've played since the mid '80s. Being almost 4 decades that's a lot of videogames, but it's unreasonable to say every video game ever and I'm not even implying that. 🤦🏼‍♂️ It's not a very unreasonable stance to take. My personal opinion doesn't need to be highly offensive to you. It's subjective and it's an opinion. It's not wrong because it's my opinion. It's wrong if I say it should apply to anyone else. So, no, it's not overly dramatic. I feel you are projecting your reaction to my opinion. Breath of the Wild is one of my favorite video games ever, so I don't think it's such a huge deal that I'm not amazed by the soundtrack. I'm not saying it's bad, but it doesn't really captivate me except for the Hyrule Castle theme. All that is perfectly okay and not in the least bit dramatic because it doesn't detract from such an awesome game.

[@edlockley2420]

I strongly disagree with your point about the music. This game takes place after defeat, the whole feeling of the game is one that is lonely, sad and melancholic, and the subtle, broken piano notes mixed in with ambient sounds of a recovering world suit this absolutely perfectly. And then, once you enter towns and villages, you are greeted with tracks that are full of personality that reflects the origins and stories of their respective locations. I might also mention how absolutely fantastic the music is in Tarrey Town, Hyrule Castle and, my personal favourite, Rito Village. Not to mention the champions themes, the games opening score and ESPECIALLY the trailer theme which gives me goosebumps every time I hear it. In my opinion, the sound track for breath of the wild is an absolute masterpiece and an extremely intelligent utilisation of music theory within the setting.

[@davidbrandenburg9662]

Playing the game for the first time and it is such a fairytale story. I love where the franchise is going (last Zelda game was Ocarina of Time) this.. Let me get back to my escape. This is magical.

[@rpgfanatic9719]

Majora's Mask was set in a world 3 days from total destruction, yet you didn't hear despair music in termina field. You heard a rocking upbeat track. Ocarina of time had that same event where ganon took over hyrule and cursed it, yet it still had the same lovable dynamic hyrule field theme you heard as a child. I also didn't hear melancholy or sadness in breath of the wild's theme, I heard music expressed with the subtitle of the game, the breath of the wild, the music of the game expressed that it wanted you to get a feel of the less artificial side of hyrule now with hylian civilization being brought to a primitive state. I can't say I like the soundtrack, though, especially the battle themes which consist of whacky primitive tribal instruments mixed in with modern ones.

Ive gotten so attached to Link and Zelda because of this game. Its insane.

[@racheldistasioliveira3871]

Same, I get what people say about the story being in the past, but I still love it

[@EbenPajanconi]

I wish more people understood the purpose of the game having less music and having more subdued, softer tones. The new Hyrule is mostly in ruins. It's empty and barren. The devs wanted you to feel like link. Lost in a big world with no memories. A world overtaken by nature and evil. Fun/bombastic music plays when you're in towns, castle, or when fighting, etc. But for the most part, only the sound of nature or a soft melody on a piano is being played. The music choice or even the lack thereof is by design. It may not be to everyone's taste but you should at least know their reasoning. Hyrule Warriors Age of Calamity has all the crazy and fun music because it fits the theme. Maybe even the next Zelda game will have more epic and louder music depending on the tone that devs are going for.

[@kieran.96]

I also thought the soundtrack was a bit underwhelming when I first played it, especially compared to other Zelda games which have some of the best soundtracks in gaming. However, eventually, after playing it more and listening to the soundtrack on KZbin etc., I realised how truly amazing it is. Give the OST a listen, I'm confident you'll change your mind

[@Mr_G_s_Route_66]

But no song beats that from The Wind Waker starting area.

[@marche800]

The statement kill the divine beasts is hilarious to me. I mean nevermind the fact that that isn't what you do, i'm just imagining link trying to kill an atomaton and failing miserably.

[@ryanpetrie6241]

This is exactly how I felt about the game. When I first bought it and then played it, I really wasn't into it because I never grew up as a Zelda fan. When I tried it again a little later into the future, I believed that it was one of the greatest games I ever played and regret not getting it sooner. Thank you Nintendo!

[@TheKensei777]

im going through something similar, although i didnt like it BECAUSE i am a zelda fan. but after playing tears of the kingdom i paused it after 150 hours and bought botw. now i am loving it cant put it down😂

[@dwick4157]

The music is actually amazingly nostalgic as well 10/10

[@marcotisch2605]

Agree! They built in old themes so subtle in the soundtrack that sometimes it’s hard to notice, but the way they use older themes always makes sense to the place/situation it occurs.. for example the contrast of Hyrule Castle exterior/interior. Sometimes u just pick up on some notes of themes you’ve known from older games and it justs boosts the excitement so much. It’s a masterpiece of a soundtrack and just fitting for the type of game botw is

[@jamienava6750]

I like that there are different ways that you can complete shrines. Sometimes after I finish a shrine, I check out KZbin to see how others did it.

[@Charlie-et4td]

Breath of the wild was the first Zelda game I've ever played. Now it's easily one of my favourite games of all time. There's so much to do, the art style is stunning, the combat and story is engaging but leaves room for you to play your own way, and the breaking tools mechanic keeps you on your toes. It's the first time a twist in a game has got me, when the old man is revealed as a ghost. And I just keep coming back to it, even if its just to ride around or explore for an hour or two. Also the way new mechanics are aren't babied to you, like shield surfing, I didn't know about it until I met the woman in the snowy mountains, and the sense of reward from that, and then finding the dragons I just though wow, I just didn't know they existed, and they look stunning. It's an easy top 3.

[@ernjdasdd]

Personally the lack of a story, the simplistic combat and the lack of actual dungeons severely hurts the play experience for me. For me this and A link between worlds are easily some of the worst games ive played.

[@santiagomerino3924]

[@ernjdasdd]

@@santiagomerino3924 I just explained it, the game has awesome world building, but overall falls short with little substance to the actual main event of the story. Combat is "ok" compared to a lot of other games, with the only notable feature being breakable weapons and shields. The lack of actual dungeons bothered me as well as they were so easy I breezed through the divine beasts in minutes where as the 120 shrines just got exhausting after the first 30. Im sure many people find the game to be great but as a zelda game this falls very very short. Personally I don't think I can recommend this game if anyone wants to take anything away from this game as the only thing it gives is "exploration" which for me just felt barren and empty.

[@clava7851]

(This comment contains botw spoilers) I disagree with you on the music part. I promise you the music is there, it just easy to miss. You said there are only ”piano tracks here and there” and that’s true but there’s so much more. In Link’s memories, boss battles (both mini bosses and blights, attack on the divine beasts, caves, dungeons (in the divine beasts) and so much more! It’s just easy to miss because it fits in so well within the world overall. The fact that there’s only a piano is playing in the hyrule field is to remind you how lonely you are, how hyrule nearly got destroyed a century ago and everyone you ever known tragically died (and you can barely remember them). My favorite track is the final boss battle against dark beast ganon. You should listen more closely when you play the game next time and you will hear it. I’m not hating, just sharing my thoughts. Great video btw, I agreed with everything else you said.

We literally got into Nintendo/Zelda the exact same way. I grew up with it, but hadn't really played anything of theirs since the 90's. Bought my Switch at the same time as you and BOTW was my primary influence. Playstation has been my primary console for years, and is what I use for everything that is cross-platform. I really only use my Xbox & Switch for exclusives. Anyways, BOTW is absolutely amazing. Dove in and was completely enthralled with the entire experience. It lived up to the hype, as expected. I've never really been into Zelda before BOTW, as it never really clicked for me,, and now I'm playing through Ocarina, Majora, and others. I can't wait for the rumored 35th Anniversary Collections to drop for Switch next year.

The real magic of this game is that it can be experienced on your own way and most things can be solved in several ways. You put the examples of the bridge of logs and the spikes and elixirs, I have never thought of that, and I have also saw people solve it in different ways, and it always amuse me how everyone comes from a different context on how to solve things even in the shrines and the game simply lets you do that. It constantly rewards your mind and your own cleverness.

You mentioned soundtrack, haven't you noticed the music in villages? They are all masterpieces.

[@directfoxy5635]

I miss the days where i would start KZbin and see an unturned video from you pop up unturned is not the same without you. You inspired me to test rp in unturned and i found some of My best Friends threw rp and i just want to Thank you for being an amasing youtuber♥️

[@Npossibly]

I'm glad I got to play this masterpiece on the WiiU

[@anakinskyguy6582]

I just bought the switch because of this

[@stankylad8815]

@Kelley Collet 3 of the highest praised Mario games in a £40-£50 collection, that's pretty good imo.

[@itrasheditgood]

I don’t know, I like the music and at times lack of it. When I’m hunting birds or just grass cutting to find crickets and fairies, I love just listing to nature sounds. It feels more real somehow. Have you really took time out of your day to visit the cold regions of hyrule and just listened to the blustery wind and trees shiver or catch the sound of a water fall in the distance, it’s fantastic.

[@nathanhohman7825]

Bro I lit the spikes on fire around that shrine lol, fire works too it spreads and destroys them all

[@bisquiteentrisket3518]

This is the only game where I learn something new every time I play it.

[@kaizen_555]

I just started this game and just got my glider im just in love with the visuals playing it on cemu its great!

[@sonya1500]

THe music is flawless >:( nice vid tho

[@sonya1500]

You make me feel so old. I played Ocarina of Time then Majora’s Mask, countless hours on the N64, from 8 to 12-13 years old. Those were real master pieces for the time. One of the first real open world. I stopped playing when I switch to XBox in 2001 or 2002, so I skipped the GameCube/Wii/DS phases of the game so I can’t tell for the other games, but the N64 ones left a deep impression on me and my friends. A generational defining game I would argue (literally everybody played it). Now I’m 32 years old and when I started playing BOTW, it all came back to me. You can really feel the inspiration of Ocarina of Time in the puzzles, the fighting, the exploration, the sense of freedom that comes from a non-linear story. If you ever find a N64 with Ocarina of Time, crack open a cold one and enjoy yourself. You’ll see that Zelda is like a fine wine. It’s a very good recipe that just keeps on getting better with age. It’s actually funny to see you discovering Zelda the way it is, like it’s a novelty, when in fact it has always been that way for thirty years. Open world, non linear story, lots of puzzles were always Zelda’s trademarks. Glad you enjoyed it!

[@Cj-ev2si]

Only started to play recently. Had the game for ages but its also taken a while to grow on me. What a game!!!! Love it!

[@drewnames651]

the best way of moving around is and always will be (for me) bouncing off of enemies with your shield, if you know how that trick works...that's an experience for sure, i swear it never gets old. do travelling by using things affected by momentum produced during stasis is really fun too

[@lynxbeast7079]

wind bombing is also really good and you dont need a red boko or frost arrow

[@ThisChannelIsAbandoned300]

I mainly use the fast travel to get from point A to point B or if I'm in a hurry.

[@LesynBDO]

9:40 I remember that mechanic in windwaker, i love that they implemented in botw

[@krywyou]

It’s my first Nintendo game I’ve ever gotten and it’s my favorite. I’m obsessed. Even the OST is one of the biggest things I strived for.

[@philatio1744]

that's cool! have you played other nintendo games?

[@krywyou]

@@philatio1744 Yeah, I used to play on the wii with my friend when I was younger. We played mario cart and stuff like that lol. Also my dad had the older Nintendo consoles, so I played mario a lot.

[@wizzywrldd]

I've played this game for well over 300 hours and I still find new places

[@Jake-nq8kp]

I just got it because it was on sale and I’m waiting for it to download right now. Can’t wait.

[@joksimradovic4040]

Part with the tree- you can even go around and climbe the cliff to reach the other side.

[@cartinastroili8137]

No game has ever entertained me so much and for so long

[@hylianlucas]

small correction to the concept of divi e beasts: you don't really kill them, you go in there to free those divine beasts of the control of calamity ganon by killing the blights inside them and regaining their control. other than that thanks for the video, i really liked it

[@akaremo182]

Honey wake up, new Robokast video

[@lynchpintm8928]

I found a compilation of old zelda music and played it during my BOTW adventure. It did the trick.

[@crixxkeep30]

Robo i love your vids. Are you ever going to bring your gmod series back?

[@mlgcactus1035]

Hope not

[@crazymonkey9332]

very well made video

[@oneheckofabanana2016]

5:56 Actually, there is a mountain next to the shrine which can be used to reach the shrine. That is how I did it. I sold the Elixer afterward.

[@elean6545]

Awesome, love the game, very exited to listen to your opinion😀

[@fadedeels9568]

Never played a zelda game til around July 2019 and now I've played almost all of them

[@onyx2787]

I’ve been playing BOTW and recently went down to lake Hylia. BEST EXPERIENCE IN MY GAMING!!

[@thijsv3544]

i just got a nintendo switch to play this zelda, And i love it!!!!!. i played like all of the other 3d zeldas and this one i like 1 of the best.

[@savagepoodle321]

4:40 It doesn't hold your hand because it's so easy. I finished the first area and then went to the desert area adjacent and discovered that each area has maybe two or three different enemy types. It feels like each area is a reskin with another group of enemies plunked in...

[@itrasheditgood]

Honestly, I didn’t get into riding the horses until near the end of the game because I, never realized that I could just follow the roads to get across the map. I had the obsession of climbing the mountains, you can’t get horses up the mountains. But it is absolutely worth learning to ride for the fact in certain parts you have to have control over an animal to complete tasks.
