Just finished it. Not only the best game in the series, but one of the best games I have ever played.

It's one of those games that only comes along once a decade or so and causes a complete paradigm shift for gaming as a medium. The way so many complex systems are woven together into such an organic, cohesive, and intuitive whole is pure genius. The level of interactivity and freedom makes pretty much all other open world games feel obsolete overnight, in the same way that games like Halo Combat Evolved and Mario 64 for their genres did back when they released. This is a watershed moment in gaming history.

Bravo, Nintendo. Bravo.

Substantially so. This is everything Nintendo's software has been lacking for years; ambitious, forward thinking, embracing of what the modern gaming mainstream wants... Hopefully this trend continues with the Switch, and we see more epic amibitious experiences and less of the play-it-safe stuff we got on Wii U. Mario Odyssey already looks lightyears ahead of 3D World.

So the guk is that stuff around towers with an eyeball attached. I know you can hit the eyeball and part of it dies, but what about the rest?


Here is a new question.

Can I pull the master sword with a fairy in my inventory? Or will it put the, sword away as my hearts get refilled?

Oh that guk.  No, most of it can't be destroyed.

And no, you can't game the Master Sword with any items like fairies or food, you must have the necessary hearts.

Only in ambition, gameplay remains to be seen, don't be superficial. 

Also out of those things you name forward thinking and embracing modern mainstream gaming is something they did very well with splatoon already.

BotW for me is one of the worst of the good Zelda games and one that absolutely did not meet my expectations. I would rate it 8/10 and put it behind OOT, Link's Awakening, A Link to the Past, Majoras Mask, Twilight Princess, Ancient Stone Tablets, BS Zelda Map 1/2, Wind Waker and A Link between Words but before Oracle of Ages / Seasons and the NES / DS / GBA games.

So much potential is wasted due to the lack of a real story and a real soundtrack, limited tools and dungeon variety and missing heart pieces, small hearts, hookshot and flask collection.

You basically wanted zelda to be exactly the same as always. Thanks God Nintendo had bigger plans.
