![]() ![]() There are some great moments I would expect in many other JRPGs but not in a Zelda title. ![]() The overall story is something that has really been elevated since BotW, not only due to the inclusion of voice acting, but that it’s another unique take on a potential timeline we have not seen before. This time around, there is a well thought out story plot to justify how Link will get his power back. Like many sequels in the world of video games, we are reintroduced to our hero Link, with Princess Zelda as they investigate beneath Hyrule Castle only to find a dark evil that, guess what? Takes all your power and leaves you with the standard three hearts. This looks to be the formula going forward, and if innovation is involved and doesn’t require a new Nintendo add-on to enjoy, I will give it a shot. Not in the traditional sense, and to be honest, I do not think we will get those again. The biggest question on my mind was, are there dungeons this time around? Well, yes and no. Despite this review coming well after the release, and many have played the game since, I will still refrain from story and in-depth spoilers that elevated my experience. The map is tremendous and technically there’s more than one. What an amazing adventure I’ve had in the 100+ hours of gameplay, where I feel I still haven’t seen everything. Well, I’m beyond happy to report that I’m glad I gave in. This was enough to intrigue me to play and since it’s been a while it will feel fresh. It wasn’t until the later trailers that showed that Hyrule had changed a bit and now we were also getting an area in the sky like in Skyward Sword. It is a rare case of a full-fledged sequel with the same Link and era, but also including the same Hyrule. As for most of what I saw of The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, it looked a lot the same. I think in my case, this was for the better. It just wasn’t memorable enough for me to revisit. On the flip side, due to the sheer size, I played at launch, finished, and never went back. ![]() Like many other The Legend of Zelda fans, Breath of the Wild was not my favorite in the series, but I sure played a lot of it. Sadly, this was not the case, and it wasn’t until the launch trailer that I became a believer. ![]() Finally, a long overdue review for a game most would expect me to have been hyped for since day one. ![]()
