I've bought this bu haven't started playing it yet (trying to finish Persona 5 first). I'm a little worried though because I didn't like the last Zelda game I played (the one that came out at launch with the Wii), and I generally like games with good stories OR character progression (making your character stronger). I hope I'm pleasantry surprised, though. Any of you have reasons I should have hope? Is there a good story? Can Link become stronger? I'm pretty ignorant when it comes to Zelda games.

There's as much or as little story as you want. You can go around collecting tidbits here and there and helping people or you can just wandering aimlessly.

 

You can get stonger. In fact, a certain important event depends on how strong you are. Also, in what I think is a characteristic of the best games, you're going to have access to almost all of the best abilities early on. You're just going to become more and more creative and efficient in the way that you use them. The more you think "I wonder if this will work..." A the better you'll be. Link will get stonger but you as a player are going to grow, too.

 

And that's all I'll say. Go into it cold with as little knowledge as possible and holler at me in a month. You'll love it!

Thanks both for the info! I'm looking forward to playing it!
