Many appreciate the game's vast content and exploration opportunities, along with the included map and guide. However, some players found the difficulty challenging, and the weapon durability system frustrating. The price point and additional content of the Explorer's Edition were also frequently praised.

    Let me start off by saying that this game was not purchased for me, but for my nieces and nephews. They love it, the collectors edition with the book at the same price is a good incentive to get this instead of the vanilla version. The graphics and gameplay look great.

    Zelda games continue to innovate while maintaining a nostalgic experience. Breath of the Wild is no exception with intense action, vast exploration, and a gripping storyline. The visuals are a stunning combination with gorgeous cell shading effects. Don't pass this up!

    Zelda will perfectly displace any type of companionship and/or unnecessary human contact.

    It simply works, the engine in which it runs is so smooth and lets the player do and undo as he pleases, travel, upgrade, take on bosses, solve super cool riddles, find alternate routes, if you think it could work, it’ll maybe do. Easily the best game this past year.

    Zelda is the best adventure/rpg game for the switch. This edition comes with a nice map which will come in handy as you explore the vast lands of Hyrule. There are no other extras aside from that but you can buy the season pass.

    I only experiences 13% percentile of the Game when I defeat the final boss. There are so many combinations and tricks and things to do! Check the youtube to see 10 things you need to try in Zelda or other similar videos. I feels I can play it for a long time.

    Maybe the Only Game You Need for a While

    The world in The Legend of Zelda: The Breath of the Wild is a huge departure from previous games. It is completely open to you from the beginning, and you have all the tools you need after the first couple of hours. This is not a story heavy game, but it rewards experimentation and exploration. There are so many places to see, secrets to find, and people to help. I find myself just wandering around and earning new hearts by defeating puzzles in shrines scattered across the huge map. This game is huge. It looks great too. I have not hooked it up to the TV yet, but the visuals are very strong on the Switch. This is a full Zelda game that you can take on the go. I think BOTW gives you a great value with good production values and a really fun game. If you own a Switch, this is the first game you should buy, and it could be the only game you need for a while.

    Breath of the wild is the best game of 2017. The Explorer Edition includes the same game, but comes with a book and map. While they're not super-useful, they're nice add-ons which were free since this was priced the same as the normal copy of the game.

    Breath of the Wild truly is a remarkable Zelda game. This is a refreshing take on the series' formula. The open world, horses, gliding, combat, etc. are incredibly enjoyable. The only negative thing would be that there isn't a traditional dungeon.

    Zelda is a massive game... which is awesome, because it's so good you hope it never ends. Get this! My brother gave it to his wife for Christmas as an intro to video games... it worked, she's a gamer now. You're welcome.
