    BOTW was mindblowing but nintendo didn’t disappoint with TOTK. I’m a designer and the way you can be creative in this game is just on another level. Best game yet and I really hope this game can win game of the year

    I’ve been an avid Zelda player since I was about 7 years old. I am currently 18. When I was told about BOTW I was honestly blown away and could not wait to see what was next. When I saw TOTK for the first time I was a little confused. Sure it had some new mechanics but same general island? I was unsure why it would be worth even spending the additional 10 dollars more than the previous game. But I can assure you (without any spoilers) this game is nothing like the last. There are so many more things to explore in this game and it seems to always find a way to keep you interested and involved. I am about 50+ hours into this game I can assure any weary customer that this is a game worthy of buying the Nintendo switch in the first place.

    This game took what Breath of The Wild did and made it better. I am blown away by this game, but also how my Switch managed to handle it. It lags somewhat, but the game runs very smoothly both docked and handheld.

    The Legend of Zelda is my favorite video game series so needless to say I absolutely love this game and every single thing about it. The game is amazing, creative, has an astounding plot and stunning visuals. 1000% recommend this game for every one that loves to express their creative side and loves to explore. I have pre-ordered from other stores before and I did not like it. I would think that I got a pre-order bonus but the week before release I would be told that I would not be receiving it, or that the game will arrive late. But since I have been pre-ordering at Best Buy that has never happened, and it was EXTREMLY important to me that I had Tears of the Kingdom when it released. I wasn't going to take any chances so I am very happy.

    My 16 y/o daughter loves this game and it’s her newest obsession. She talks about the graphics and story being awesome. And I know Zelda as the classic Nintendo and love it then and love it that she loves it now

    My son wanted to love the game, but said it was too hard, but he can certainly grow into learning to love Zelda as I did as a kid! I haven't personally played the game, but it unfortunately is not one of his favorites.

    Tears of the Kingdom continues where Breathe of the Wild ends by pushing the story in interesting ways. The additions of building and crafting adds new twists to the gameplay

    Great sequel. A big step toward bringing back the things that made previous Zelda games so great. Worth playing for the main story alone, not to mention the endless creativity of being able to build things.

    Great game, lots of side quest and exploration. New mechanics to keep it interesting and add new methods to solve puzzles. Story line is keeps you interested in the plot as well as keeping the sandbox appeal.

    10/10 A better breath of the wild

    This game is breath of the wild but improved in nearly every way. If I had to have one complaint about the changes, it’s simply that I miss stasis. The expanded world to explore is amazing. I’ve not completed the story but I’ve done everything up to the final boss and I love every thing I saw, I was a little disappointed that a majority of takes place in the past again but the story itself is good enough for it to not be a dealbreaker for me. One final thing that doesn’t bother me as much as it confuses me is the lack of explanation for where all the sheikah stuff is, maybe that’s my fault and I was oblivious to the answer but I’ve seen nothing that explains it. All in all easily game of the year for me at least so far.

    It's been impossible to stop playing this. The story is really engaging for a Zelda game, the new abilities are waaaay too fun and the side stuff is very distracting (in the best way)

    If you liked Breath of the Wild, you're gonna love this game. It's a familiar world yet so much has changed with the Upheaval. There's so much to explore in both the changed Hyrule and the new Skylands. The new abilities are a lot of fun to experiment with and come with a whole new slew of shrine puzzles. I could go on but don't want to spoil too much. Just note that if things like weapon degradation and lack of story soured your mood of BotW, TotK has vastly improved the former games flaws with things like the fuse ability and a story that makes you feel more involved. Even if you aren't a Zelda or BotW fan, I still highly recommend picking this game up if you love open world games with lots of things to find in it's world!

    The DLC bs is coming from haters. This game feels similar to the last game but it also feels new in many ways. The price is higher than most switch games but it's worth the price if you want +100 of gameplay.
