What i find amazing is how many Sony gamers in this thread has problems with a game they never played.

As you can see, we are a bit torn between critics and gamers. a whopping 21% differnce surely is not something to go by. Sure 7.6 is still great (hence 7/10 from sterling), but to go up to 97%. And for a zelda game when previous entries where so close in scores? Too much to go by...

(1) Those upgrades don't require a person to stop and start momvement. You are stuck at a certain speed. That is what causes the hate. If Link had no Stamnia bar. And just let you upgrade Link's speed, over time. No one would really care. As it is. It's causing people to run, slow, run, slow, run, slow. People like holding forward, and that's it. You can argue. Than don't use run. Than why is it in the game? It's like the old Wolverine games. What's the point of having his claws. If they gave damage, to him. The Stamina bar is also not realistic. If you want realism. Than actaully do it. Allow Link to run, for a minute. Link isn't some fat guy, out of shape.

(2) I don't think its cute that I can't get on the Haneto tower. Because my stamina bar, is one inch shy of the first ledge.

(1) Who said anything about stopping to recover stamina? When has that ever been mentioned by anyone besides you? Why does it matter that you can run faster now? That's totally irrelevant. No is is complaining about his speed, just that running is arbitrarily hampered for no good reason. And besides, why does the stamina meter only kick in when you're running? What is it about running that makes Link practically shit his pants after about five seconds while he can literally jog for days? This is supposed to be less annoying to me? Okay.

(2) I haven't made fun of anyone's opinion, thanks. Here you are practically labelling someone who disagrees with you as a "hater". Why on earth would I be bitter that people are enjoying this game? That doesn't make any sense at all.  I have no problem that some people think that BorW is the greatest game ever. What I do have a problem with is people having a mental breakdown when someone has valid criticisms of the game. Despite the reviews, this game is far from perfect, and it's good that others are acknowledging that.

Of course. Because reloading your gun (something that's found in practically all shooters) is totally the same as a tedious, arbitrary stamina system that has plenty of work arounds that renders it more annoying than it does to offer a challnege. Nice false equivalence.

Already answered: ALL games in metacritic user score, get troll 0%. No exceptions there. What i meant is that this zelda is way to low compared to the 97% it got even when compared to the other zelda games

Why doesn't Link shoot lazer beams out of his eyes instead of using a sword? Got any other ridiculous false equivalents while you're at it?

Right, pigeon holing one gameplay mechanic so that it sounds the same as another so you can make more false equivalences is a totally valid way of arguing. Great job.

This is just silly. This is the same as the people that argue that the terrible control scheme in Resident Evil (Ps1) is actually better because it's easier to fumble with the controls while you're scared and thus it creates tension. Well no - sorry, that's just a poor design.

Why would a sail cloth make you fly? That makes no sense. A better one would be the magnet ability. Stand on one platform, and fly anywhere. I did edit my post:

Basically, it's easier to max out the stamina bar. Over your health. Because, dying is less anoying. Than all the other stuff. Seriously. I rather die, with only having 3 hearts. VS traveling really far. Get to the tower. And find out I can't reach the top. Because I have not enough stamina. I wasted my time, getting that heart container. Thanks to the check points.

Tieing the health and stamina system, to that point system. Is what is causing the overall problem. Instead of having the heart containers function as the previous games.
