the breakable weapons gimmick is annoying, crafting didn't do anything to improve it. the lack of dungeons and restricting hearts to shrines makes exploration fell pointless. if they want to evolve zelda they need to go in a different direction, or stick to what made the series good and drop the above mentioned mechanics.
breakable weapons isn't annoying, git gud
the game is incredibly easy, adding an annoying gimmick doesn't make it difficult just eye rolling
the crafting just added another step to an already obnoxious mechanic and in the most generic way possible
How caveman brained are you that you couldn't handle the crafting?
breakable weapons is a crutch for the otherwise bland and empty world, just to keep your mind off of the fact. one of 2 things can happen when you explore - you either find a shrine, or you find a korok. that is all the game have to offer past climbing the towers and doing the divine beasts. all the shrines are themed in the same futuristic/sterile style and the puzzles are easy. it's often immediately apparent that you can also bypass a puzzle completely by using stasis on some ball or something and run to a platform before it unfreezes. totk is just nuts & bolts all over again, but the building mechanic is somehow worse. there's potential in the format but the execution makes it feel like a bethesda game with slightly more enjoyable combat. enemies gets new colors over time and just soak more damage, to the point where it's not really rewarding to fighting them using conventional means since you effectively lose more than you gain from the weapons not lasting long enough.
if you have to play it, play on cemu with unbreakable weapons & 60 fps, but outside of the absolute main objectives it's a pretty bland game. totk i wouldn't even bother with if it's a zelda game you want to play.
you're just generalizing it to the point where it wont 'sound' fun. finding shrines and koroks is fun, AND completing the tasks is also fun. it's a fun game.
calling breaking weapons a crutch is just showing your hand. the implication is that the gameworld itself isn't fun to explore, and that it's some kind of bandaid for that. finding new stuff is fun IN EVERY GAME, not just BotW. it's not a 'crutch' it's an innovation, it incentivises and reincentivises players. that's good game design.
I admit the shrines sharing the same look is disappointing. I would have liked them to be more modeled after their location, or even to have been implemented into the environment completely, itself personally.
>breakable weapons isn't annoying, git gud
I would agree if the game had a better durability and crafting system.
Also, the fact that the Master Sword can break is and always will be fricking moronic.
I can totally overlook Master Sword, for probably two reasons. The big one is you can just throw it over and over again, so it needs a meter; durability. The second reason I've heard other people say before, is that players would stop engaging with the other weapons.
>The big one is you can just throw it over and over again
You can't throw the Master Sword, that just produces a beam attack. So just limit that to when you have full health like every other Zelda game, problem solved.
>So just limit that to when you have full health
no, I dont want that just because durability hurts your feelings.
So in a game with unlimited pause menu healing you think it's worse to need full health for beam attacks than to make the entire Master Sword completely unusable for 5 real-life minutes every arbitrary number of swings?
As for the second argument about people no longer engaging with other weapons, so what? You have to EARN the Master Sword and once you earn it you should be allowed to use it as much as you want.
use a different weapon, this isn't some rocket science
that's TotK
Breakable weapons were annoying in BotW but crafting in TotK definitely fixed that. Being able to craft weapons helped me not be so conservative with weapons and made the whole thing much more enjoyable. That said, the rest of TotK wasn't really great or worth playing after having played BotW.
What kills me is the nerfed and shitty combat. There's an interview where Aonuma stated that Zelda controls became "too complicated" which is why he brought about breakable weapons. I want to punch his face so badly.
Not when Elden Ring exists.
that game is overrated, it's legitimately as bad as Ganker claims TotK to be
>Elden Ring
>won GotY
>TotK
>didn't win GotY
Nah.
Twilight Princess won GOTY, Ocarina of Time won two consecutive years.
TotK reused the map. Elden Ring didn't. nuff said.
inb4 Elden Ring 2 reuses the map
Man, you need to play more video games.
How do they taste?
>TotK

The entire awards show was rigged. There's no way TotK would've lost otherwise.
I'm guessing you think it was rigged in every year except 2017.
I love Switch cartridges, genuinely Nintendo’s best innovation in a long time and I hope they keep the same size for their next console.
>I hope they keep the same size for their next console.
It will be like the 3DS cart, it will have a notch that prevents it from being inserted into a Switch 1 but it will be the same size since the Switch 2 is backwards compatible.
What's the point to evee going back to BOTW? I ask unironically.
TotK is like Ocarina of Time
BotW is like Majora's Mask
you just go for the experience you're after.
EU game covers, cartridges, and discs are absolute garbage
Thats an odd way to type 13 Sentinels
Is TotK worth buying or even playing if I already played the hell out of BotW?
If you have the itch to play breath of the wild again, then yeah since it will scratch that itch while also adding new content, story, bosses powers etc. if you have no desire to replay breath of the wild, then no don't buy it.
