    The Nintendo Switch brought me back to the Nintendo brand for the first time since the Nintendo 64 and Zelda was the reason why. It evokes feelings of ocarina of time but manages to be fresh and new. Lots of extra items and a bit of different strategy but true to the core of the game.

    One of the best Zelda games in the series. I have played them all and this gives you hours of play time in exploration and evil doer bashing. I did miss the temples that are prominent in every other Zelda game but after having it for a while I still am finding secrets and exploring areas I have not reached. Great for wasting time while traveling.

    One of the best Switch Games in the Library. The best Open World, Immersive games ever made. Good for Zelda fans and people that never even heard of Zelda. The story is a brand new story that does not tie into other games. Feel free to play this game without any spoilers.

    Expansive, addicting game. The best Zelda ever, and i love Ocarina of Time. I have spent about 20 hours playing the game thus far, and am not even 1/10 of the way into the game. Any Zelda fan or open world adventure fan will love this game. Beware: wives/girlfriends, this may cause your husband/boyfriend to be distracted for quite some time, but he will be HAPPY!!!

    This is a game with ton's of content to keep you going. Nintendo has put fourth a great game. I didn't know too much about it other than hearing great things about it, and I was absolutely blown away in the first hour of playing it. This is hands down, one of the best games I have ever played. It is beautiful, complex, and breathtakingly enormous.

    An amazing gamestory couple with an equally amazing game mechanics. As with the name, you need to explore most of the map as well as the abilities you have. A downside for this game (at least for me) is that I haven't seen Link taking!!!!

    This is an amazing game. It exceeded my expectations even when I was hyped for it months in advance. I am an avid zelda fan and enjoyed how different and open world BOTW was. My only regret is finishing the game. I put over 160 hours into the game and still play here and there. I see huge replay value in this game. I will be keeping it for a long time!

    This game is truly amazing and by far the best installment out of the entire series! The story is engaging, the graphics and gameplay are top notch with plenty to do to keep you playing for months on end. If you’re on the fence about buying a Nintendo Switch, you could buy it simply for this game alone and never be disappointed.

    From the beautiful open world, to the story and sound track, Nintendo held nothing back for this game. Definitely recommend for any switch owner for their library, and it deserves all of the scores and praise it's been getting. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to get back to my game.

    BotW offers a huge, dynamic open world to explore, with many things to do and discover. The shrines and temples offer lots of puzzles to solve, and while the game starts off very challenging as you progress it can be as easy or hard as you want it to be. And the characters/story while a little on the lean side got me emotionally invested nonetheless.

    one of the video games I have enjoyed the most

    I have only played it for about 5-10% of its size. In my very limited gaming experience, my favorite type of game used to be combat racing. Zelda (Breath of the Wild) may have changed that for me. I love the technical side of it. The sound makes me feel like I am there, in nature. The only part that I don't like about it (and it's not Zelda in particular, but these types of games) is the complexity of things that you acquire, the large number items that you can have in your inventory and use to cook, for example. I repeat that my video-gaming experience is limited, but this title has redefined my expectations of what is possible in terms of beauty, art, direction, and technics, especially on such modest hardware as the switch. I purchased the game and tried it because of hearing people about the experience of it being special, and it did deliver; now Zelda holds a special place in my heart too!

    Growing up as a child, Zelda was on of the first games that I ever played all the way through and beat. Since then, the Zelda series has always brought adventure into the game. If you're a huge fan of Zelda, you need to grab this game. New to the Zelda series? You won't regret your purchase. Rich story, and awesome game play.

    This is easily the most stunning achievement in video games in a while and really captivates the player immediately and encourages exploration. Although not 100% perfect, it comes pretty close and is absolutely essential for any switch owner. Frame rates stutter occasionally and are especially bad in some areas, but do not hinder game play in most cases.

    An Absolute Masterpiece

    This is the open-world Legend of Zelda game that all diehard Zelda fans have been waiting for. Because of the open-world aspect, some may not like the game because it can feel less linear than previous Zelda titles, but I like it because it makes the game feel much longer and encourages adventure and exploration. And this Zelda game world that Nintendo has created is so rich, detailed, and breathtakingly vast in size that players who do not take the time to explore the game world are missing out on the majority of the game, and what is, in my opinion, the best component of it. I would consider this game as one of the best that I have played this decade, and for any Zelda fan especially, it is a must-have game. I got this game as a gift from my girlfriend, then after playing it for a few months, I went out and bought the game for my younger brother, who is also a serious Nintendo fan, because he wasn't sure if he'd like it or not. He's been playing it non-stop since then. I have it for the Wii U and my brother now has it for the Switch; I haven't noticed any differences between the two versions. However, if you have neither system and you call yourself a Zelda fan, this game is, in my eyes, a good enough reason to buy a Switch.

    Strong and emotional storytelling. Beautiful open world. Enjoyable combat system. Lots of detailed exploration. I can’t say enough good things about this fantastic game. Highly recommended for anyone who loves open world exploration and third person action/adventure. Worth every cent.

    You already all know what Zelda is. With this latest entry, the team did a great job of building a living, breathing world with hundreds of details and distractions everywhere you turn. Hunt, fish, explore, seek treasure or rare hidden enemies with powerful rewards. Dont take my word for it, pick it up and check it out! You won't regret it! :)

    I'm pretty sure it will get argued, but this is now easily my favorite zelda game of all time. Really fun. The only tiny tiny complaint, is that I could argue that the main quest line the whole time.....not terribly high on the difficulty. I was really hoping they'll add something later like a "master quest" or a hard mode. Then it would literally be perfect
