I’m always surprised with how the soundtrack exceeds my already high expectations.

If you have never played a Zelda game before like me it will be a great experience learning how to play. I would recommend every Nintendo Switch owner to have this game

It's okay to die a lot! It's harder than Breath of the Wild, especially if you haven't played it in awhile. Also, don't forget Ascend. You're never stuck on a puzzle, you just forgot about Ascend!

Just enjoy the ride. There's a huge difference between beating the main quests and finishing the game. This is all about experiences.

WOW, this game is so amazing, 10/10,TOTK is better than mechanics and all to BOTW (sorry for my level of English, I'm studying the idiom)

So much more than a 70-dollar DLC. I have not stopped thinking about this game since I inserted the card. this takes everything great done in BOTW and makes it 100 times better. You should absolutely play this game.

This is a great game, possibly the best of them all. If you're familiar with Zelda, I need not say more. If you're new to it, that's no big deal either as the game is pretty seamless at being able to bring first timers aboard in a way they won't feel lost. I can't say enough good things
The only thing I dislike about the game, which is more of a rant, is with how supremely annoying weapon decay/the way it works is. As well as how exhausting some of the crafting type things are, I don't mind grinding for mats and things like that what irritates me is only being able to cook one meal at a time. I'd like to be able to build a queue personally, and it would be helpful to be able to easily see how much carry capacity you have left whilst meal prepping.

Tears of the Kingdom stands as one of the finest games ever crafted, even surpassing Breath of the Wild in various aspects. Its gameplay is a delightful blend of diversity and enjoyment, introducing a host of novel tools and abilities. The puzzles, particularly in the shrines and dungeons, offer heightened challenges and creativity that truly engage players. The narrative is enthralling, boasting moments that linger in memory, elevating the entire series. The characters, especially the enigmatic Zonais tribe living harmoniously with nature, hold immense fascination. However, it's Ganondorf who steals the spotlight as one of Nintendo's most remarkable villains. His ruthless cunning and formidable power culminate in an epic final showdown. While occasional lag on the console can hinder the experience, this game remains a true masterpiece that warrants attention from all quarters. The captivating world, coupled with its rich story and engaging characters, beckons every player to embark on this extraordinary journey.

We always have a game of the year and games that define a generation. Some how Nintendo was able to redefine gaming as a whole.

Play Breath of the Wild before playing this game. This one makes BotW obsolete.

Tears of the Kingdom has usurped Breath of the Wild as my favorite game of all time. Tom’s assessment nailed it. It took everything from the first game and built upon it in ways I never dreamed possible. Love the freedom, joy in exploration, the constant exciting distractions. So many fun & unscripted ways to achieve the same end goal. Nintendo did a great job giving us such a vast sandbox to play in and tools to craft our own unique playing styles. It took me about 135 hours before I beat it. I did take my time and still have a ton of side adventures, quests, shrines & treasures to discover. Grateful for the experience thus far. Not gonna spoil anything but wanted to say the end game battle is epic! Love this game so much! Thank you Nintendo! Been enjoying the series since the first entry. Started playing The Legend of Zelda at 8, and now at 44 I am still blown away by the whole thing. So good!
