Atlas Fallen is a Zelda Breath Of The Wild clone with ideas of its own

Deck13's ambitious new open world game looks less like their previous games and more like a unique blend of Monster Hunter and Zelda after seeing it in action

How is it a clone when Zelda's been cloning games since Twilight Princess? We need to stop pretending like Breath of the Wild is the standard.

Instant put off whenever I hear something compared to botw since I didn't enjoy that zelda game

[ChubbyBlade]

Breath of the wild should be the standard. Elden ring followed the same style of open world. Both are Gotys

[SurgicalMenace]

Both games lacked story, direction, or identity because they borrowed so heavily from other titles. BotW is too G rated to be the standard for anyone who enjoys adult themed subject matter. Elden came at a time where the industry was so thirsty that it blinded itself to all the glaring flaws and recycled resources present in Elden. GotY doesn't hold as much weight as it once did given that candidates can be rewarded on sales alone now. Just let this game be as great as it would like to be without comparing it to other titles.

I think Elden pulled it off way better and that should be the standard, in my opinion.

I wish Zelda stuck to, well, Zelda Ocarina of Time’s blue print, which was essentially the best tradition from the 2D Zelda games to 3D.

@CrimsonWing69

I agree wholeheartedly that Elden pulled it off way better and it does offer more footing to build on. Zelda should have definitely stayed Zelda too.

What games did Legend of Zelda rip off since Twilight Princess?

[SurgicalMenace]

You guys throw around the word fanboy as though it has any meaning or is going to deviate an individual from speaking what they've observed. I own every system and I literally buy everything to play so when I don't like it, that's it. Which of you spend upward of 30K yearly on their gaming? I'm more than sure that you guys have to be fans of certain games because you're limited to only a few options?

The last great Zelda that was unique was Phantom Hourglass. Twilight Princess(Okami) and this latest outing of BotW(The Witcher) are just not Zelda games. Elden is every daydreamers' wetdream, the formula allows for individuals to "feel" powerful and accomplished instead of being either. Too easy, combat is stiff and dated, graphics are only passable. Grow up and realize that what you like doesn't resonate the same with everyone.

@surgical

Did you even answer my question, or just go on a tangent?

[rlow1]

Looks good to me. I think the Zelda vibes come from the main mission instead of gameplay.

[Einhander1971]

Most games now are soulslike crap, so makes a change to be Botw. Oh and Metroidvania. Gaming is a joke nowadays.

[Shane Kim]

They all copy each other so I tend to go with the ones who has most interesting setting and story.

[FreeckyCake]

Doesn't look like a Breath of the Wild clone at first glance to me. It looks more like Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen

[jznrpg]

Open World was out waaaay before and popular waaay before Breath of the Wild . Why do people act like it’s the first open world game ever ?
These games don’t even seem alike besides being open world ?
The one game you can really compare to BoTW is Genshin Impact as they have a lot of similarities.

*Watches trailer. Doesn't understand how anybody could compare this to Breath of the Wild.*
