Nintendo blew up Zelda and rearranged the pieces in bite-sized chunks perfect for an open journey of discovery. After falling in love with Ocarina of Time in 1998 but failing to engage with any Zelda after, 0;Breath of the Wild did the impossible and made me feel like a kid again.
Some big first-party Switch games are currently on sale, including Zelda: Breath of the Wild, Super Mario Odyssey, and more.
Nintendo Everything pinpoints the new things that Zelda: Breath of the Wild brought to the table and how it inspired other developers.
I love Breath of the Wild, but stop saying it invented the wheel. Open world games existed before that so I am pretty sure none of those game were influenced by it. Hell Pokemon Legends Arceus is technically more similar to Monster Hunter than an open world game.
Let’s be honest for a wii u game botw is great. If inspiration is taken from it then great.
Hey..another opinion piece from a website with the word Nintendo in its name about how Zelda Botw influenced other games ..lel.
Look i love breath of the wild as much as the next guy but honestly ur acting like it changed the game or something.
It didnt it was an amazingly crafted open world game, that its.
Tgat fact tgatva few games steal certain things from it doesnt make it more special. Devs steal things from other games literally the time.
So are we gonna have posts about how a crummy game with nice feature influenced all gamers after it just vecause a few things were taken from it by another dev.
Its weird to say this about such an amazing game but its literally overrated at this point.
Something like gta deserves these articles gta and red dead are exemplary examples on how to do open world and the added bonus of them basically starting the trend and perfecting it
A few years after Zelda: Breath of the Wild's release, Nintendo Everything looks back on the Champions' Ballad DLC.
Yes completely stunning never right off Nintendo they always rewrite the rule book. Gameplay is king.
I'm not big on numbers for review scores but gave it 5/5 (N4G changes it to /10). No game is perfect. BotW has performance issues, a slight lack of enemy variety, and I would have liked to see a better travel system to discourage fast travel (skipping and hopping with paraglider would be fun)
But the experience and feeling this game gave was irreplacable. I thought I had grown out of Zelda games after Ocarina, and at times I feel like I've grown out of gaming all together, but this game brought me back in a way that is very special. I'll always think fondly of March 2017 and especially launch day as my love for Zelda emerged from hibernation like Link from the cave
