Who said it was shitty? I do believe it is the best Zelda game, but that doesn't mean it's without faults.

It has faults, such as the super easy northwest dungeon, anything involving Yunobo, or that atrocity of a final boss.

 

Yea, the area was way too easy for me to complete. I had more trouble with the  Zora boss (Elephant).

Is there really a point in complaining? Even if you skip it, you got 100+ hours of gameplay from a $60 game. That's amazing

That's never a reason not to tell a company what you think about their products.  It's like saying no one should have expressed their feelings about horse armor because Oblivion was a great game.  If you don't draw a line then they'll keep going further and further across it.

I mean, not buying it would be talking with your wallet. No money, bad dlc disappears

I don't know about all that. I think the combat in Zelda is one of the game's best features. The story is rather beautiful as well, and surprisingly wistful.

That said, I won't be purchasing the DLC. If one game doesn't require DLC it's Breath of the Wild. The base game has enough content for hundreds of hours of gameplay.

I agree it doesn't NEED any DLCs.  But... Since this is the best game many people played in years [myself included] , having even more added to it is a blessing! :D

The first DLC seems to be similar to the Eventide Island, which I really enjoyed.

The story DLC is still a mystery right now. I enjoyed the story of Breath of the Wild, and thought the way it was unfolded suited the nature of the game. But if this DLC will get a more "engaged" story (one that doesn't get revealed through flashback sequences, I'm curious to see how they pull it off. I for one am curious to see and play through the events that led to Link's 100 years long slumber in the Resurection Chamber.

As far as I'm concerned, more Zelda Breath of the Wild can't be a bad thing. On the contrary.

The northwest "dungeon" is the first according to the game. While you can play them in any order, the difficulty differs for each of them, both in the layout and the boss.

It was still too easy, and no, the game never implies it's supposed to be the first. Mostly every time either the dungeons, champions, bosses or even areas are mentioned, it's in a different order. It's clear there is a difficulty order (NW > E > N > SW), but the game never tells you to do it that way, if anything most people do it counter-clockwise starting from the Eastern one.

Ha ha. When I start a game where exploration is completely left to my choosing, I always go right first.

So yes, I started with the Zoras.

Most people did in BOTW because it's the first direction you're pointed to go because of Kakariko Village but rather then turn around and explore people just carried on going I ended up doing the Zora's first as a result but I kind of agree with Rol, I found the area easy because I had already been elsewhere first.

Going by the poll most people are buying it which is what I figured of course but it's good to know for sure that I am in the minority on this. I might be down on this DLC but my positive spin on it is that they're waiting until the next game to fix things, my same wishful thinking with MK8D.

idk, I like the sounds of the content and I'm excited for it to release. *shrugs*

I like the new enemies, costumes, mask to find those damn seeds, etc.
I'm really looking forward to the larger DLC that includes a new area plus dungeon. That is really where the value comes from for the DLC price of $20.

Is anyone actually telling the company or are they complaining in a forum that Nintendo will never see?

Gonna be straight up here, the DLC sucks. Doesn't add to the best thing about the game (exploration) and instead focuses on the average parts (combat). This would be like Splatoon getting DLC but only for it's storymode... oh right, they're also doing story DLC despite having the worst story in a Zelda game, let alone in general. It's $20 which isn't a bad price but the content just isn't good enough especially when Nintendo has so many games on the horizon, so I'm skipping out on this.

I agree with everything you said except the bold part (which was a whole bunch of bullshit).

But if you agree that he was being straight up, wouldn't that mean that the rest couldn't be bullshit? Unless he's not being straight up, and bullshitting, which would mean that you'd disagree with the unbolded part, too.

Did they explain what's on this DLC?



Bet with bluedawgs: I say Switch will outsell PS4 in 2018, he says PS4 will outsell Switch. He's now permabanned, but the bet will remain in my sig.
