    Retains the beautiful art style from breath of the wild as well as the map. But they have added new abilities as well as expanded the map vertically into the air and underground as well creating new challenges. The ability to craft new weapons or objects from other things opens multiple ways to accomplish goals and fun new ways to move around the map.

    Thankfully when I got this game I was in between jobs because I’d still be trying to beat a year later. I absolutely love Zelda and this is one of my favorites. Still disappointed Nintendo didn’t add full scale dungeons in this game like breath od the wild

    BotW is now obsolete

    Honestly, this game is very good...it feels like what BotW should have been. TotK makes BotW very skippable, my suggestion is to do so and just play TotK after watching some videos on BotW's (minimal) storyline. If you like mechanics of BotW but want to build things and explore more, this game does a good job of expanding on that. There is MORE story than prior, but TotK still feels lacking in story compared to previous entries in the Zelda series. Regardless, if you thought BotW was decent you should definitely play TotK. If for nothing else, lets reward game design that isn't centered around DLC and microtransactions. It is a full game that feels absolutely complete as it sits. Even though I'm not crazy about the direction this franchise is going in, I still have to admit this is a very good game.

    The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom does not change the design elements that make Breath of the Wild a masterpiece, but it is not a simple sequel to the old-fashioned replay. This sandbox game has become larger, richer, and even more ambitious, with very creative new systems, such as vehicle production, imaginative weapon forging, and dazzling new maps.

    Not enough stars to give - I usually try to get an least an hour of play per $1 a game costs, and with game prices increasing to $70 it's a hard ask. This game is the kind you pour 100 hours into and barely scratch the surface. I can't recommend it enough if you liked the previous entry or if you just want to try it fresh with no experience in Zelda games.

    The world within this game is enormous, there is so much to explore. Once you think you've seen it all, you'll discover something else you haven’t seen. This reminds me of playing Ocarina of Time as a kid, so much fun. I can't imagine the time it took to develop this game, so well done. Look forward to the next one.

    If you liked Breath of the Wild then you'll love everything about this game. If you haven't played Breath of the Wild yet, I definitely recommend playing that one first. Tears of the Kingdom throws A LOT at you that might be hard to grasp if you haven't played Breath of the Wild. I happen to love all the new additions. One of the best games I've ever played.

    I played breathe of the wild quite a bit and it was an amazing experience. I was going in thinking it'd be more of the same. I was wrong! The building mechanic and puzzle solving have been a refreshing experience on how to go about doing things. It felt somewhat the same but definitely brand new. The game's cell shaded style still looks great.
