I own a PS4 & 70 games, Switch & 20: ZELDA BOTW is the best game of both consoles by a huge gap.

I have acquaintance who is a CEO of a videogame company, and his two favorite games at the time I spoke to him last (2019) were the Monster Quest games(Not sure if im saying that title correctly) and the new Zelda... He said pretty much the same thing about Zelda...

I spent hours completing all the big guns on PS4 the past few years - Classics like RDR2, GTA, GOW, Ghost and every one of them is a 10/10 ... But I am now playing Zelda for a 2nd time (Master Mode) and if there was such a thing as a super tier 10/10 this is it.

I cant work out why its so far ahead of the others, it may be as simple as the satisfaction of finding a treasure chest...
But that right there even after the 100th time > any other game this gen.

While the use of elements and game engine is just so advanced its crazy. You know I still don’t understand how the heck they made a game this advanced and adult in gameplay technique. It’s got more layers than RDR2, Ghost and GOW put together with change.

Anyway just my thoughts.
I cannot recommend this game enough, especially while we are all stuck in waiting for covid to subside.

my favorite thing about the game unlike tsushima, HZD, RDR2, and others is that the environments feel alive and interactive. If you hit something it will react in the way you expect it to. Whether its a tree, water, grass, food, enemies, animals, things have personality and link can effect them.

In a lot of other games it feels like the truman show where everything is just cardboard cutouts and dont react at all to the players. The environments feel very static. Like how in Tsushima you can't cut bamboo outside of the bamboo mini-game. Or in HZD water doesn't splash when you fire an arrow into it and animals just run through it.

BOTW feels like the type of game where i you see something you can go climb it or shoot it, or pull it up and find something to do with it. It's how an open world game should be, OPEN. Oh thats a cool volcano, let me build up my stamina to try and climb up the side of it and see whats in it.

Son. BOTW ain’t more alive than RDR2 that’s just a lie. They had a nikka literally follow NPC’s around for a whole day and they actually have a whole full ass life with chores n shyt. This whole shyt with Cyberpunk really made me appreciate what games like RDR2 brought to the table. BOTW was boring as fukk to me honestly and Zelda is one of my fav game franchises.

congratulations you just compared the environment to NPC when he literally said he was speaking in terms of the environment...you bring up a fair point it just has absolutely nothing to do with his and does not counter it

played the game on emulator 4k 60fps, all that, and no, its a good game but there are several games on par with it, mainly because the combat is still the same zelda shyt from ocarina of time, my goddamn the game came out in 1996, I know zelda games are about puzzles and exploration not fighting, but still, they need to come up with a new combat system or upgrade it massively

The boss fights are good, everything is good, but there's nothing exceptional about the game except for the physics and the interaction with the terrain that has set the standards for games going forward so if you want to see give it the crown based on that, I can agree with it

I must be playing a different version cause nothing about this game feels amazing. What does it do differently or even better than previous open world games? The dungeons are bland and get old fast. The combat is trash(not as bad as elder scrolls but that's not saying much). Has one of the worst weapons systems I ever had to suffer through. And to top it off, the game is just not fun. I freed one divine beast which was the best part of the game but not worth suffering through anymore of it.

I was off games for a couple yrs until it brought me back

My first Zelda game
I really need to finish the master sword trials

I hope in the sequel they improve the puzzles and dungeons. The shrines felt really repetitive to me. They felt kind of lacking but beyond that it was a super fun game.

I have over 125hrs of BOTW on my first run and still not done with it yet.

It's a classic.
