I'll put the most important thing at the beginning: I hope you can give it a high rating even if you don't like it, it's still a good game, I want more people to play it because of its high score and the influence of other Zelda games.
I like the game. Even though I played botw so it seems a bit repetitive. But I like it. I'll give it a 5 star.
If you never played botw before and the first 3D zelda game you played was totk, it will be an absolute masterpiece to you. I looked through all the 1-star reviews. There's one review I felt pretty bad for myself for even reading it. "The graphics are like in the 2000s."
Well, practically, it's partially correct. The Switch graphics are NOT perfect, but at least the art work is beautiful and I LOVE Zelda's new haircut. They think so hard to come up with these puzzles, and the music is still so good. PLEASE. For those who keep giving out 1 stars for its graphic, I beg you to stop. Nintendo games are made for entertaining and it's suppose to be fun, and not even meant to be designed to meet YOUR standard for a "good game" which has nothing but good graphics.
Botw reaches the roof of Zelda games and there's no way any other sequels can be better than IT. TotK is full of memories, like going to the Great Plateau, Shrine of Resurrection just to take a picture of the beginning cutscene in botw. I can see that Nintendo tried so hard for this game, and please don't write me a full essay of how it's repetitive and annoying, and just a DLC copy and paste of botw. I'm a BIG fan of botw, if you give me this brand new game that wipe out all the good things they have for botw, I guess most fans of botw will be unimpressed. So please, if you're just not that obsessed over this game, at least give it an average rate. No need to give it a 1-star review just because it's a sequel to your probably FAVORITE game?
I saw a lot of salty people criticizing it like crazy, if you actually played the game, you can see the minimal level of knowledge they have on the game. The whole comment make sense, but they seriously put the phrase "ASCEND? Whatever this is" at the beginning of their paragraph criticizing the ability ascend. It's so obvious they didn't even played the game and just come bombing it like crazy because of whatever reason, I don't care.
I'm gonna give you a 5-star. Even I'm not that excited over it like botw, but I still enjoy it, since I'm a Zelda fan.
I hope you can give it a high rating even if you don't like it, it's still a good game, I want more people to play it because of its high score and the influence of other Zelda games.
