I bought a switch and finally got around to playing this. I'm a huge Zelda fun with my top three being Windwaker, majora's mask and twilight princess.
I didn't like botw. I tried to get into it, but the story is lack luster, the exploration part and enemies get repetitive fast. I get that there's supposed to be collecting and crafting, but the world feels so empty and the shrines are essentially a grind. The weapon breaking is there to force you cycle, but all I could think of was getting the ones that don't. Combat is all about blocking and using a fury attack
Are they really making a second one over a story based Zelda? How do you defend this?
Not to mention the weapons didn't break and it was genuinely interesting to explore the islands instead of "huge empty plains!" And "generic shrine!"

I want to believe that BotW is basically just the beta version of the upcoming sequel. I've never seen so much missed potential, it's unreal.
Justin Walker
It fulfilled most of its potential, which is more than you can say for most Zelda ganes.
Tyler Bennett
>op says the game was not fun >its fun, thats all that matters
Anthony Perry
botw is the most overrated game of this generation and completely forgettable. but cut it with the faggy reddit spacing, retard underage
Jordan Walker
The biggest issue is that it simply could have been better. It could have had more classic dungeons and the world itself could have been utilized more as well. Hope BotW2 will be better.
Carson Sanders
I like WW but its ocean has significantly less points of interest than BotW. BotW has the most in common with WW, there's nothing underage about this opinion.
Camden Ward
????????
Christian Hughes
If it was forgettable we wouldnt have had daily threads about it for the past 3 years.
Cameron Clark
This. The fuck did he mean?
Angel Reed
>It fulfilled most of its potential It would've fulfilled it's potential if the overworld wouldn't be essentially empty. The sidequests are trash and aside from a few exceptions like Eventide Islans, shrines are just as boring. I'm certain the sequel will fix this though.
Zachary Gomez
If you don't know why WW and BotW are the most similar out of the games listed you need to play in traffic
Nolan Reyes
>it's everyone else who's wrong, not me
Eli Sanders
most shrine quests were great though
Carson Reyes
you clearly played the remake, because the original triforce shard quest required you to go to 80% of those islands that you think were optional. get the fuck out, cunt
Thomas Nguyen
but in ww the ocean is the huge empty plane. thats maybe the major critisim about it
Easton Wilson
The developers succeeded in doing what they set out to do with BOTW, which is more than you can say for games like Twilight Princess and Skyward Sword with their half baked concepts.
Austin Hall
you couldn't make it any less obvious that you're a literal child.
Nicholas Green
I never talked about islands being optional, where the fuck did you pull that from?
Daniel Gutierrez
They're just really basic easy puzzles attached to bland writing and boring characters (aside from Kass). The only good sidequests the ones that offer some fun gameplay like Eventide Island or that one super dark island.
Samuel Long
What? You're saying you didn't enjoy collecting 900 Korok seeds for a piece of poo?
Jayden Brown
personally, I liked the riddles - albeit mostly because so few games have riddles so I found it actually kind of refreshing
Charles Hernandez
The puzzles in shrines are no more basic than what you would normally do in a traditional zelda dungeon.
Noah Long
Although I loved the game, it is the most different 3D Zelda ever. So being a fan of previous games doesn't matter that much regarding BotW, user. You didn't liked, what you're gonna do? 2 is going to follow the same core ideas, I am sure. Who knows, maybe 2 fix the problems you are having.
>3d zelda formula: explore and collect items, but you'll need 90% of the items to beat the game (this is true of the original ww, which you clearly didn't know) >botw: literally everything is optional except collecting the glider at the beginning Read between the lines phoneposting faggot. botw has more in common with zelda 1 than any other zelda.
Colton King
what are you even arguing against here? I feel like you've confused my posts with another user's, as I'm completely lost on what point you think you're countering with this.
Xavier Phillips
Guys I'm not bashing the game. I understand that some people like it. I didn't enjoy it. I'm wondering if I'm doing something wrong or if it's really just overhauled. That's all
Aiden Wood
>but the story is lack luster How can somebod say this with a straight face while claiming WW is his favorite Zelda when the end of WW doesnt make any sense at all? >the exploration part and enemies get repetitive fast. This also applies here. In WW you have a small and limited ammount of islands (sometimes entire areas with the same pirate shit) in BotW i have much more to explore
Henry Harris
>BotW has the most in common with WW, there's nothing underage about this opinion. how daft are you? reread my posts and then get the fuck out until you can legally suck my cock.
Jose Gomez
neither? you just don't like the game, that's a natural result of forming an opinion on something.
thanks for falling for the pleb filter. use your fucking environment and ipad powers more often instead of crutching on your sword.
Anthony Hernandez
you're being intentionally obtuse by this point
Nathaniel Collins
Yeah thats cool, but some riddles as the main chunk of good content is pretty mediocre. All I'm saying is BotW would've been a much better game if it had good sidequests and stuff like dungeons to explore (or generally just more interesting shit instead of bland riddles).
The areas in ww are unique at least. Also, judging a game by just the ending is dumb. WW was a nice adventure start to finish. The characters were interesting and so we're the dungeons
Zachary Cooper
I agree, but I still enjoyed the game a lot for what it was. Looking forward to the sequel way more, though
Hudson Bennett
you're not doing anything wrong, it's just nintendo's shitty take at an open world game. I lost interest when I sequence broke in the gerudo desert when you're supposed to follow the yiga clan up a linear route. literally found an open hole on top of a cliff that let me fall completely out of the world.
Matthew Cox
holy shit user you're a fucking idiot
Leo Garcia
Nintendo drones are the reason the quality went to shit. Lemme guess, you liked sword and shield and paid online too, right?
Landon Lopez
i wonder how many times a day this (and all its iterations) are posted. At least 10 right? We probably have this same thread 10 times a day.
Colton Hernandez
liking breath of the wild and mario odyssey equates to also putting up with Sword and Shield.
Austin Bell
>cries about muh vidya while race is being replaced by brown retard migrants and shlomo brainwashes his people and takes every last shekel from him and all his family members Your ancestors would have beat you to death out of sheer shame and disgust.
every time you complain about plot being scattered about and bitching about weapon break rates when you have a perfectly good psyschic power tablet of infinite uses and possibilities the counter will get reset.

Every website and normie calls it “the literal 10/10 of games, a masterpiece”
It’s not, nintendofags need to admit this game is nowhere near close to being on that level
Jayden Evans
the terrain in botw is rushed and literally unfinished in spots. if you actually made your own route instead of taking the obvious linear routes you would have realized this yourself
It's not a Zelda game. Period. >B-BUT MUH ORIGINAL THE LEGEND OF ZELDAAAAA!!!! trash game that may have revolutionized the action-adventure genre (it wasn't even the first unlike what Nincel dicklets would like you to believe) but aged horribly and is just yet another antiquated piece of 8-bit shit at this point. Historically it's a behemoth, but it doesn't change the fact that it's literally unplayable in this day and age. Wouldn't even waste time playing on my phone while taking a shit, it aged that fucking badly. The onions smoking video game bloggers aka "journalists" and Switchcel owners are an EXTREMELY loud, annoying and obnoxious minority who memed and hyped the generic trashfest that is BotW into heaven.
there's been more esl botw cry threads than there are particles in the universe at this point

you realize there has to be literally dozens of people posting this right? There is a 0% chance it is just one person. There are multiple versions of this image.
Luis Rivera
Because WW has soul and BotW does not
Charles Bell
>"An apocalyptic world shouldn't be empty"
That's a contradiction. A world where a evil force has influence over nearly all living creatures of the land, has taken over the bodies of four guardian deities, and has possessed the bodies of countless terminator machines capable of destroying entire armies each, would most definitely being void of nearly everything. In fact, its actually unrealistic that there are even villages around that still exist, they would have all been completely destroyed by now.
