tivec said: You may not believe this, but I have never played any Zelda game (my only Nintendo consoles were GameBoy Advanced and 3DS). So I have another question. If I consider Witcher 3 and Persona series as great games and I enjoyed them will I also like BotW? |
That is okay, Breath of the Wild is very different from other TLoZ games. In fact you'd have to play almost every game in the series to get an idea of how Breath of the Wild might play, because it takes bits from different games, but also adds a lot of new things from other series, and has innovations of its own.
If you like The Witcher 3 because it has a very beautiful, expansive, and unique world which you can explore every detail of then you'll like Breath of the Wild. Don't expect as scripted of a story and side-quests as The Witcher 3 and even Persona though. The story in Zelda games is mostly based on world-building rather than characters and drama. Although that has been changing a little recently.
Since you are not invested in the series (yet), it would be hard to recommend the Switch if it is the only game you are interested in for the future. Xenoblade Chronicles 2 would be something else you'd like, if you find The Witcher 3 and Persona fun, because of the way the story works and the scope of the world. Otherwise, you should look at other upcoming Switch titles and maybe just wait for them to release. I usually have a five game rule for myself. If there are five games I can see myself buying, and I have time for another console, then I will get it.
