epicurean said: 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. |
Can Link become stronger?: Yes, in many ways. But one of it is you getting better. Which is why one island strips you of your gear and gives you a trial. You can naturally stay away from it, if you don't like it.
Is there a good story? Very subjective. BOTW doesn't force a story on you, not much cutscenes or obligatory quests. Very early on you get the quest: Kill Ganon, which is the goal of the game. But there is a lot to discover in the game, including remnants of past events, side quests and so on. This will paint a story, if you let it. So, some like it, some not.
