Game Idealist takes a look as to whether or not The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild: The Complete Official Strategy Guide is worth purchasing.
Polygon: "To get back to the way Ocarina made us feel, it was necessary to reject almost everything about it."
I generally agree with the author here. However, if I had to point out a single game as the 'anti-Breath of the Wild,' that would be Majora's Mask. Pretty much everything in that game is interconnected, relies on something that the player must have done previously, is timed, and can be considered a puzzle in itself.
but still considered the best of the seties.
i would have liked botw to be more like ocarina.
25 years from today whatever Zelda is out people would too be looking fondly at Breath of the Wild.
Ah the more simple times of the 2020s.
The best prices we've found this Black Friday for Zelda Tears of the Kingdom as well as the previous game, Breath of the Wild.
The Legend of Zelda series producer Eiji Aonuma has again commented on the possibility of revisiting the style of past entries in the series – but there are no plans as of now. Speaking with RTL Nieuws, Aonuma said that games like Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom were possible because of what came before them.
Which is very sad. I still wish we could get a zelda like twilight princess, the dark tone and theme in the traditional style. But times have changed and the masses prefer open world sandbox. Smh. Perhaps we can get a proper hd remake of ocarina of time some day.
If they can bounce between 2D and 3D Mario games, they can bounce between classic and modern Zelda games too. I thought this was a given when the Switch combined a handheld with a primary console.
Then this is where I part ways. I won't disagree with anyone who says that the old formula was getting stale. And I do think BoTW in a few ways was a step in the right direction, but there's way too much good that was left with the old formula in the transition.
Well that sucks. I still love the classic formula WAY more than the Hyrule Engineering Simulator
I'm gonna say yes! Also it hardens back to the days I used to buy Nintendo Power and strategy guides!
It is a Piggyback guide, so the answer is always yes. I've got the Collector's Edition guide preordered and cannot wait to get it. Their guides are as good as any art book.
Well, let's see... Ah. I just thought of one very good reason.
Nine! HUNDRED! Korok Seeds.
If that isn't "pass me the guide!" worthy, I dunno what is.XD
Only if you see it as a collector item. If you need help in the game there will be many online sources that are more efficient than flipping through the pages of a large book.
still have my ocarina of time strategy guide..it helped...
