Breath of the Wild. First time I played it, I was disgusted and thought that they’d destroyed my favourite ever video game series. I barely played 4-5 hours before putting it down. I felt genuinely upset that I’d waited so long for “thisâ€Â.
I returned to it perhaps a year or so later, this time getting about 20 hours into the game. I enjoyed it slightly more but it didn’t hold my interest so I dropped it again.
Third time, perhaps a year or so after the second, I tried again. What the hell had I been missing?! I fell in love with it this time, and now it’s not only one of my favourite Zelda games but one of my favourite games ever. So glad I went back to it time and again. Really am not sure what I was missing the first two times around! |
May I ask what exactly you didn't like the first time around? |
I genuinely am not entirely sure; now that I absolutely love it, it doesn’t much make sense to me. But I’ll give it a go! I think it was that it seemed to deviate so much from the Zelda experience I’d come to know and expect that it just felt like it wasn’t a Zelda game (and no, I didn’t play the early Zelda games). It may have even been with how I was feeling at the time and where I was in my life. I’d love to clarify and pinpoint what I didn’t like the first time around but I’m really not sure anymore. I am confused at my own initial reaction now haha!
