I'm a Metroid fan, and I wanted this game to be bad so that Prime 4 would be the saving grace for Nintendo. One dream died and a new one was born...
This is and absolutely terrific game and experience! It is a perfect fusion between the deep story of Skyward Sword and the immersive open world of Breath of The Wild. No, it is not DLC lol. But it takes the saying "you can't go home again" and gives it a twist. It's the same world but with more civilization and culture and structure, while also presenting a brand new empty and eerie underworld. The sky was advertised as being much more present than it winds up being. It is a bit difficult to traverse the sky which is my only big criticism of this game.
Dungeons have returned! And they are much better than what Breath of The Wild gave us. My personal favorite is the Wind Temple, but each dungeon has such an immersive atmosphere.
Finally, the story! Zelda has never had a bigger role in these games than she does here. It is occasionally tear jerking, sentimental. It is very engaging and much more compelling than the stories told by recent installments in the franchise.
This game, in very subtle ways, takes what Breath of The Wild did, by drastically altering the traditional formula of a Zelda game, and it turns backward just enough to hold what was accomplished recently and also to return to the nature and identity of The Legend of Zelda. I love it and I think you all will too.
Yes... it is worth 70$:)
