Reviews around son (5.00 of 5)

  • Perfect game, my son adores it, as a gamer you have a lot of freedom in the game and it always gives you objectives to accomplish.
  • My son LOVES this game and is having a blast playing on his new Switch
  • The style feels reminiscent of Skyward Sword’s, which I also adored, but taken to the next level.

  • The overall experience is awesome and you should not miss this game despite everything I said before
  • This Zelda game truly redefines the classic Zelda experience.

Reviews around play (4.57 of 5)

  • And this is by far one of the best games I've ever played
  • 200 hours in and one of the best games I've ever played.
  • Hyrule isn't the same with dull, passive music playing instead of deeply immersive
  • The Not-So-Good:-There really isn't much of a story here to unravel as you play
  • The story line is unique to every instance of this game (not even every person), and the world is as challenging, engaging and complex as you are willing to make it

Reviews around zelda (4.38 of 5)

  • This is one of my favorite games and my favorite Zelda game so far
  • In my mind, it is objectively terrible, and the worst Zelda game ever made
  • This game is largely about the exploration, progression to becoming stronger, and the journey to the end, but when it comes to the end, I felt like it was the weakest Zelda ending I've seen, and even a weak game ending in general.
  • It is at best a mediocre game, and at worst a terrible Zelda game
  • Not just the best Zelda game ever, but the best game ever.

Reviews around world (4.16 of 5)

  • Amazing graphics and game play, love the open world where you can choose your own path
  • Game is tough, but I really enjoy the challenges and open world
  • This open world that Breath of the Wild provided I feared would have been too overwhelming just at the thought and fear of becoming lost with no way of ever thinking I could finish the game
  • - The world feels very barren and empty, much of the time
  • The world doesn't work, and the people in it don't seem real because of it

Reviews around nintendo (4.01 of 5)

  • Sorry Nintendo, I've been a fan my whole life, but you dropped the ball on this game
  • This is without a doubt the best game Nintendo has ever
  • n’t stand the weapon mechanic with them always breaking.
  • This is the best game Nintendo has made in likely the past twenty years, if not ever.
  • Nintendo clearly lavished a great deal of time and thought in the making of this game

Reviews around story (3.93 of 5)

  • I can honestly say I enjoyed this game, played it every day to completion and was invested enough to get the best ending completely by accident on the first playthrough, but the story, ultimately, is a little weak and relies heavily on tropes and bad character archetypes; you will hate the voice acting, but love the character design
  • Graphics are amazing, story is great, the whole game is amazing
  • The story, graphics, gameplay and sheer size of the game are all amazing
  • n’t stand the weapon mechanic with them always breaking.
  • Amazing gameplay, inmersive story, great graphics, deep soundtrack, versatile game mechanics

  • Along with the gorgeous world, the gameplay is exciting
  • The gameplay, the story, the characters, they are all outstanding
  • The Not-So-Good:-There really isn't much of a story here to unravel as you play
  • Overall: 9/10Not the best Zelda game, but a great open world exploration game with fun characters, a great tense atmosphere, and memorable gameplay moments

Reviews around thing (3.33 of 5)

  • This isn't a bad thing, but it's something to consider if you're on the fence about it and only like a certain Zelda playstyle
  • There are too many side quests in the game which would not have been a bad thing if the rewards were better, but I am forced to do them to avoid finishing the game too quickly
  • by now you've heard all the good and great things about the game, but there should be the negative as well.
  • The great thing about this game is you get to choose what you want to do.
  • The only frustrating thing of the game is the constant breaking of the weapons

Reviews around interest (2.50 of 5)

  • Normally I lose interest pretty fast in open world games because there is just so much to do and the growing list feels daunting.
  • I can't play every day and in most cases I lost interest half way
  • n’t even have to recover the divine beasts and put your friends’ spirits at rest
  • It's really well designed, interesting, great graphics and physics, and if you love puzzles - you'll love this game
  • Eventually I became interested in looking for certain weapons and armors and that led to me looking for and exploring even more parts of the game

Reviews around lack (2.05 of 5)

  • lack of dungeons and dispersing all of that into shrines made the game boring and repetitive

Reviews around weapons (1.95 of 5)

  • One major gripe: Weapons break as a mechanic that encourages variety in battles
  • I purchased a Switch and this game for my kids and I love it just as much as they do
  • The style feels reminiscent of Skyward Sword’s, which I also adored, but taken to the next level.
  • Weapons can break too easily so that's why it loses a star, but overall very fun!
  • Weapons, even the ones found late-game, break way too easily, causing one to hoard weapons for fear of breaking them when you need them most

Reviews around weapon break (1.95 of 5)

  • I feel it is solid but with the weapon breaking, fairly empty world, boring fetch quests and what you have is a good game not amazing at all

Reviews around compare (1.95 of 5)

  • I purchased a Switch and this game for my kids and I love it just as much as they do
  • Sure, you could start a meth habit, but this is relatively cheap compared to that despite being just as effective at causing you to ignore friends and work
  • The graphics are gorgeous for a Nintendo game as well as for a portable game system.
  • The dungeons in Breath of the Wild seem lackluster compared to previous Zelda titles

Reviews around rock (1.69 of 5)

  • However, I forbid my household guests from taking it out of the docking station and only use it with LG 4K
  • In previous iterations, you could simply cut some grass, break a rock, or smash a pot to regain hearts
  • This game was very very fun and the 720p looks like 4K in the switch screen
  • The fact that items may no longer be obtained by randomly cutting grass, breaking rocks, or smashing pots also makes collecting rupees much more difficult

Reviews around end (1.66 of 5)

  • This game is largely about the exploration, progression to becoming stronger, and the journey to the end, but when it comes to the end, I felt like it was the weakest Zelda ending I've seen, and even a weak game ending in general.
  • That's not quite what I'm talking about though here, as I feel I came to the ending with a fair amount of power, but not to the point of being severely overpowered, and I felt like the ending was easy as cake.
  • The atmosphere and tension created in the game is fantastic, unfortunately let down and falls flat because the ending is pretty weak, but for the journey and through the cutscenes I could feel the emotion and tension quite strongly.
  • Combat is good but exploitable over time, ending is pretty weak.
  • Extra points for a solid atmosphere, weakened by a weak ending

Reviews around core (1.00 of 5)

  • These is only normal run and Pro run games so it is apparently designed for the hard core gamer unlike the Zelda Ocarina of time I bought used for near new price many years after it as designed for the Nintendo 64 because it was more a younger persons puzzle and adventure game loaded with mini games and not as much violence
  • I give it a big thumbs up for young hard core fight gamers but for novice and children along with
  • But as this is a constant fight fight fight M for Mature Violent game now if you are a hard core gamer you can rent the game fight through ignore all the side quests, not enjoy the horses which are very untameable and do not follow good directions so
  • As I understand it is a loved Gamer hard core game I gave it a 5 starbut for
  • But if you are a hard core gamer I suggest you get the Ammibos to up the gameplay a bit which they do not tell you can be used in the game and run it on professional level before you try to resell it

  • Of course there are also bad guys to get through along the way and the torch goes out when you switch to a
  • During that time, the Wii died, the Wii U launched and died and the Switch launched
  • I picked this game up at launch on the Wii U and was blown away by how good it was
  • kind of ugly/bothersome to look at (not to say bad guys need to look
  • The bad guys are hard to beat and the shrines which are mostly mini games are challenging
