| pokoko said: Why is that considered unique to BotW, though? I mean, the first time I played Skyrim, I was over level 100 without ever beating the main story. I mostly ran out and adventured on my own. When the HD version came out, I replayed it and purposefully ignored the main story, to the point that dragons weren't even spawning (which was so nice), while I went out and became a vampire as soon as possible and played the entire game as the most evil thing in the realm. |
I haven't played Skyrim in a while, but I thought I recalled there being several main quests required to complete the game. Sure you can ignore these quests and do your own thing, which is awesome (vampire poko arc sounds like the bomb), but there are still typically key milestones if you aim to complete it.
In this case, the game can be beaten without exposure to a single story event (well excepting the tutorial maybe). Probably doesn't matter to anyone that wants the full experience anyway, but making an open narrative on top of open progression leaves me with a sense of control that feels extremely satisfying. I honestly can't think of any other game that's captured this same feeling. It's completely Boom's World!!
