It's been 7 years and I still cannot believe how groundbreaking this game is. Breath of the Wild was a watershed moment in video gaming.

Jesus christ dude it's just assassin's creed with worse mechanics

It's shit, the forest where you get the master sword from is kind of cool though

it is not just Assassin's Creed, Dude

DINNER DINNER DINNER DINNER DINNER DINNER DINNER DINNER DINNER DINNER DINNER DINNER DINNER DINNER DINNER DINNER

I don't know if dismissing it as just ass creed makes sense but praise for BOTW always seems to come back to the fact it's open world (or occasionally some basic bitch interactions between items), seeing people on Anon Babble felating this game shattered my previously strongly held belief that most nintendofags on Anon Babble also had PCs, it's like they had never played another open world game

This proves you know absolutely nothing about game logic and game design. You must be a retard zoomer that post pretty landscapes of games like KCD2 and GOT and think they are masterpieces.

DINNER BLASTER BAM BAM BAM BAM

fpbp

Its one of the best evolutions of the open world genre. You can't talk about it here without disingenuous retards pipping in comparing it to Ubisoft.

"What if we made Zelda into a Ubisoft game?"

Somehow this is groundbreaking

I was thoroughly unimpressed with this game and it's sequel. In fact I was too bored to finish it. It's hard to make a worse game than Skyward Sword but they found a way. Twice.

it's

grammar.jpg - 1600x1200, 181.5K

I was I pressed as well until I left the plateau. Then it turned into empty open world slop #29484747

It tried so hard to be Japanese Skyrim, but fell short in a few key areas.
1. Lack of dungeons. What did it have, like 4 dungeons that took 10-15 minutes apiece? Shrines fucking sucked.
2. None of the shit you find means anything because it all breaks. No incentive to even do the shrines or explore at all past rushing the story because none of the breakable loot feels like it has real value.

Yes, I'm playing it to this day. The first Zelda game to actually follow up on Ocarina of Time in terms of being a groundbreaking entry that forever changes gaming.

I feel like it only gets more impressive because it didn't have the impact it should have had. You'd think everyone in the entire industry would be aping it and pushing for more meaningful interactivity in their games, but no. There were a handful of copycats, but now the survival-crafting crap is even more grindy and jank and the AAA junk is more movie-like than ever. Nobody took the lesson about having sandbox tools with deliberately designed gameplay scenarios.

Nigga I'm playing this game on a PC.

YOU CAN'T DO THAT! I'M TELLING MY DAD WHO WORKS AT NINTENDO.

Groundbreaking in what?

Like your mom when she walks.

It's been 7 years and you're still mwntally ill, Ericspammer.

we used to, maybe switchfags don't. personally i was never into open world unless you count minecraft.
there's some good parts after that but it's far in few between, and one of them is dlc exclusive.

Anon Babbletrannies will never get over it. BotW is the biggest prolonged nonstop assfucking this board has ever endured. And then it happened again with the sequel, TotK.

I've played better video games that BoTW tries to be and it's boring. If you've only played Nintendo games your whole life, this is a masterpiece.

ass creek controls like shit just like every playstation game. Seriously all their games feel like I'm stuck on a magnetic grid or like they hardcode every spot and ledge that I'm allowed to jump on. It drives me crazy how nobody talks about it.

it's like they had never played another open world game

BotW was the antithesis of other open world games.

Other open worlds only existed to separate the content.

In BotW the world WAS the game.

If you can't understand the difference, or how BotW BTFO ever other open world game, there's plenty of essays to educate yourself.

youtu.be/CZzcVs8tNfE?si=Dan1QCCSbEllR8i6

If you've only played Nintendo games your whole life, this is a masterpiece.

He still mad.

Journalists don't play videogames. There are way better games

how about you explain it here with your own bloody words instead of using some rando to argue? there's nothin' in much of the world except for shrines, and while admittedly those are cool, they would've been better as parts of actual dungeons. plus like half of em are blessings or battles which aren't that interesting.

Nigger kill yourself.
I had a WiiU.
It had Batmsn Arkem City, Ass creed 3 + 4, Watch Dogs. Mass Effects, Deus Ex, among a few others.
BotW kicks the shit out of these games and its not even funny.
Go be a petty loser elsewhere.

saying it's because it's "open world" is a dumb dismissable. What the game does is Immersive Simulation, ala Deus Ex, ala Thief, those games. There's so many interconnected systems that just work through common sense. Wooden stuff catches on fire, lightning strikes metal, ice weapons freeze the water, enemies can be disarmed, they will run and pick up any weapon they can. The giants will rip a tree out of the ground to use as a club.

^ these aren't scripted, they are behavior and ai routines that naturally occur

SO MUCH THIS
IT'S FUCKING THIS
it's the fact that it was revolutionary, dumb fucks on Anon Babble cannot conceptualize it, and by comparison the gap is becoming more evident

I've explained it many times over the years and you could never cope with that too. You'll just have to accept nobody needs to explain jack shit to you now and you have to live with the fact you're a retard.

You're like that dumb kid in class who can't understand why Shakespeare is a big deal.

Only because it's a Nintendo game and you're biased

i can't explain it without e-celebs but let me pretend like i did anyway

classic Anon Babble.

You'd think everyone in the entire industry would be aping it and pushing for more meaningful interactivity in their games, but no.

Its not easy to copy. A game like BotW is simply beyond the talent and/or corporate mandate of most developers.

Most game studios are not going invest millions of dollars and years of development in to creating entirely new game engines and THEN trying to create a game using that engine - putting hundreds of thousands of hours into play testing and refinement to ensure it wasn't a completely fucking broken mess. It would take YEARS.

Most developers don't work like that. Investors will say "we want to see a game by Christmas this year". So developers don't have the drive or even the freedom to attempt something like BotW.

Instead they'll just halfass BotW's ideas into existing game engines like we've seen with Genshin Impact and Fenyx Rising.

So while BotW may have a lot of wisdom to impart to other game developers, very few will ever step up, and TotK only shifted that gulf further.

Ganon_3.jpg - 1920x1080, 273.62K

still seething a decade later while BotW is cemented in history at the GOAT

Yeah stay mad on Anon Babble. Hope it works out for you lmao

the same braindead talking points about the game being a basic open world almost ten years in

insane how botw mindbroke brown people, sony fans and other assorted subhumans

is totk playable in this quality yet?
I played botw in 4k/60 and it was smooth as fuck with virtually no bugs. and there was a guide telling my dumb ass how to install it properly

nothing like that with totk

is totk playable in this quality yet?

I played botw in 4k/60 and it was smooth as fuck with virtually no bugs. and there was a guide telling my dumb ass how to install it properly

BotW only worked because it was running on CEMU. It runs like shit on actual Switch emulators. Even worse for TotK.

look man enjoy your trite if you really want, just don't call it zelda. if it were reskinned as somethin' else i really doubt you'd be defending it like such.
mang i basically 100%ed the game, only thing i didn't get was all the koroks but i got all the inventory upgrades. it's simply not that good compared to the prior titles.

it's funny how the usual suspects always try to argue that botw gets praised because supposedly nintendo fans never played an open world game before or else they'd understand it's just a worse assassin's creed (lol) but all they do is signaling that they themselves know nothing about vidya or else they'd understand that the overwhelming majority of botw's game design elements were already present in tww that released 5 years before the first asscreed

just don't call it zelda

BotW has more in common with the original concept of Zelda than any game in the series. Old time fans like me overjoyed after years of linear slop. Zelda has been restored to what it should be; a fucking adventure game.

zelda_1.jpg - 1400x788, 137.74K

Seething schizos seem to think that BotW's acclaim came from Nintendo fans. It didn't. It came from everyone else.

It's been 7 years and nobody has explained me why this game is better than Morrowind, Oblivion or Skyrim.

Sounds like the casual gamer doesn't play videogames.

4k60 totk

its still impossible especially after nintendo took down all the switch emulators, development has grind to a halt

It's been 7 years and nobody has explained me why this game is better than Morrowind, Oblivion or Skyrim.

Nobody cares about you.

bethesda

well it's not a broken pile of shit for starters

Kek'd

I will never stop laughing at how much sony and snoys pushed horizon only for BOTW to rape it, then they tried again with the second game only for Elden Ring to appear and violate them again

He's wrong like Aonuma and Miyamoto are wrong many times.
Don't you run faster whistling in this tablet game?

fuckin hell

ww has a lot of the same problems frankly, the dungeons were better at least.
oh this talking point again, what a classic talking point. please tell me how to get to level 9 without beating all the other levels, please tell me how to enter level 7 without the whistle. please tell how to get to level 4 without the raft, please tell me how i can skip the stepladder and be fine. you've never played zelda 1 and you never will.

mfw Horizon 3 launches the same week as ESVI

Did anyone like the Horizon games? This game series is getting a live service game and a MMO. Who's asking for this shit?

I cannot wait for Horizon 3 because some 10/10 game is going to launch a week before or after it

seeing people on Anon Babble felating this game

Most of Anon Babble won't shut up about how much they hate this game. If anything, it is Skyrim that Anon Babble won't stop fellating.

Don't you run faster whistling in this tablet game?

no but even if you did surely you don't think this is comparable to todd's third world coding

Yes. I have a shit ton of mods too.

capture.png - 1429x801, 2.02M

He was a designer, he didn't code the game.

Don't you run faster whistling in this tablet game?

You're thinking of an exploit where if you tap whistle while running you lose stamina more slowly or not at all at the correct intervals, it's been patched out.

please tell me how to get to level 9 without beating all the other levels, please tell me how to enter level 7 without the whistle. please tell how to get to level 4 without the raft, please tell me how i can skip the stepladder and be fine. you've never played zelda 1 and you never will.

You never understood Zelda, it's appeal or why it was such a massive hit with gamers in the 1980s.

You continue to be baffled and seething, only focusing on the minutiae of moments rather than the overall gaming experience, which is about freedom and exploration at its core - gameplay informed by nothing except the player's own curiosity

it's funny because for all the kvetching about this game being overrated I think it's the exact opposite, you go online and the only thing you can find it's faggots telling you that it's trash, just a reskin of a basic ubisoft game, worse than shit like bethesda's worthless sludge etc etc, the game is unironically underrated

This is better than Starfield and Fallout 4, tho

I’m playing ALTTP right now, and damn I really don’t ever want to play BOTW or TOTK again. I love the maze dungeons and upgrading the master sword and other items in your collection is more fun than it was in those games.

The game only released when it did because they finally assigned Aonuma and Fujibayashi some actual oversight and mandated that they release a placeholder game before they go an entire console generation without a Zelda game.
That really just serves to underline Aonuma's poor grasp of achievable scope. WW was also rushed to completion,
It really doesn't outside of the surface level similarities.
Hell, the "linear slop" can be largely laid at the feet of Aonuma and Fujibayashi who just can't put together decent Zelda games and most of their bullshit is just as present in BotW/TotK as it is in something like SS.
They sucked at trying to construct something according to the Zelda formula, so they removed the structure altogether.

I'm not sure what kind of gotcha he thought he had with the "tablet game" stuff, skyrim is a tablet game too lmao

Good for you, man. Find what you like and enjoy it to your heart's content.

Yes and Morrowind ran on Xbox. Are you slow?

That really just serves

to show that you don't shit about vidya yeah, dilate

That really just serves to underline Aonuma's poor grasp of achievable scope.

Holy shit the mental gymnastics on this one...

he does that everytime

everytime his retarded arguments get btfo (so every single time he posts them) he pivots to some completely unrelated point to bog the discussion down, he deserves a bullet between the eyes

How did you get off the Great Plateau without the paraglider?
How did you enter Van Rudania without the shockarrows?
How did you enter Gurudo Town without the women's clothes?

You won't answer this.

it's simply not that good compared to the prior titles.

Twilight Princess and Skyward Sword were fucking dogshit thoughever.

How did you enter Van Rudania without the shockarrows?

I beat the game at Hyrule Castle

How did you enter Gurudo Town without the women's clothes?

I beat the game at Hyrule Castle

So BotW has more player freedom and choice. Based.

Thanks for playing.

Yeah I didn’t read the other guy’s post.
It does. Kind of the whole thing point of the game.

Im playing for the first time right now, i can definitively see why people were enamored by it and the reason those gotys and 10/10 showed up everywhere, but for me so far the game is like 3 games at once.

The open world is a fun 9/10 climbing/gliding simulator, i like how many cool stuff you can see in the distance, how many mechanics like temperature/weather/weight and how intractable the world feels, the puzzles in it are interesting or just quick korok stuff, the characters while simple are charming, it really feels like a big adventure in a magical world.

The shrines themselves are a fine 7/10 3rd person puzzle game, a little repetitive visually but that doesnt bother me much and the variety in both mechanics and solutions is pretty nice.

The combat is a fucking 4 by being either mind numbingly boring or frustratingly obnoxious; too few weapon types, movesets are non existent, the dodge is too generous to the point of being confusing, the healing is a pace killer, the enemies are either retarded or not worth the trouble because the durability is annoying and worse, hurts the world rewards. I really just pivot whenever i see an enemy in my way.

I honestly dont know how to rate it, it isnt a 10 to me but giving any less than a 7 feels like a disservice to the world.

posts exactly one minute apart

Arthur, you are terrible at samefagging. At least try to make it less obvious.

posts a soul void

oh it's the ugly kike, of course

I agree with you for the most part but game engines are often in development alongside the games, built onto, and extended, as needed.

It was great for about an hour or two and then anyone with an IQ above 90 realized it was total fucking dogwater. The retards who didn't, or refused to, and fellated it to hell and back are why Nintendo churned out a shameless rehash that took them 7 years, killed the series and made Aonuma arrogant enough to think it'd win best direction, let alone goty.
Tendies with their standards and dignity in the gutter have ruined Nintendo.

Lmao, holy nintentoddler

I'm phoneposting

Huh, so you could take a screenshot, and cut it down and post it, on your phone? Or your phone just has a weird resolution at 1170x469 pixels.

I fucking hate nu-zelda writing/dialogue.

it's simply not that good compared to the prior titles.

Ocarina of Time is hilarious outdated.
Wind Waker. Twilight Princess.
To hell with that old shit.

muh dungeons, go grind in a looter shooter you fuckwad.

Bland and boring and derivative.

glad to know this gachaslop is dying out, sadly a million more soulless slot machine "games" will take its place

You’re very silly

IMG_5079.jpg - 1170x806, 352.94K

BotW is the closest game TO Morrowind. You can enjoy them both I hear.

Polished and fun unique*

lol what

You're really not convincing me here. Then again, considering you're a regular liar, that's not surprising.

but for me so far the game is like 3 games at once.

and that's a bad thing!

If only they knew there were more and better games.

Do you not know how smart phones work?
You take a screenshot and then can immediately crop the shot.
It’s been this way for 8 years or so.

combat is... le bad!

filtered

botw combat is a massive improvement over past zelda games (faint praise) and better than pretty much every other open world game out there, the amount of options at your disposal is insane and you can really style on enemies that are designed for this very purpose

groundbreaking

What grounds were broken exactly

I don't post on Anon Babble with my phone. So no, I don't do that. What I do know is that you've spewed the same bullshit in Zelda threads for 8 years.

BOTW is a masterpiece

no game can ever get close to it

all other games are bad

if you have even a single complaint against it, you're an OOTsnoy or a tranny etc

Why should anyone believe you in any capacity?

botw combat is a massive improvement over past zelda games

It was the first good open world game

not shown: everything else the game does

crazy to think someone went through the effort of making the webm

I put it at a solid 6 by the end because unlike other Zeldas you didn't get any gadgets throughout the game, the music was mediocre, and the stories were just outright bad.
It's an incredibly polished game as far as your mobility is concerned but what you do in it and how its presented dragged the score down dramatically for me.

I didn't play SS but I think every other 3D Zelda had better combat and it's not even close. The options you're talking about don't make it fun. And sending an enemy off a cliff with a bomb only for them to not die really soured my interest in the combat. And then the enemies become damage sponges later on which is just retarded.

>not shown: everything else the game does

Oh you mean like terrible menus

genetic refuse spamming the same webms zhe's been using since 2017

oh xhe mad

Give that ALTTP post above a you for me.

Skyward Sword had the best swordfighting.

the snoy who spams the cope webms is not very smart
he used to have more showing off the combat but in his effort to show how the combat is "easy and bad" he left the minimap up and it showed the little death X showing that in his attempt to show how easy the game is he got killed

Personally I enjoy my weapons breaking every few hits. You'd have to be a snoy to not like botw combat

I didn't play SS but I think every other 3D Zelda had better combat

this is blatantly retarded

previous zelda games had infinitely easier and simplier combat, there's no possible standard you could use to claim they were better

the combat hasn't changed since 2017

What grounds were broken exactly

Post any game with gameplay like BotW or TotK. I'll wait.

2025

still too stupid to press the giant SORT button

It fucking sucks and deeply flawed on numerous fundamental levels and no amount of 'but I can drop a rock on that bokoblin's head' changes that. Literally just polishing a turd.

Twilight Princess had the best combat of all 3D Zeldas.
You just had to put it on Hero mode + spend $12 on a Ganondorf amiibo.

scary super epic final boss to end the entire series on

can't even hit you

Xbox had Morrowind before Wind Waker launched in Japan. Excuse me?

still mad your seethe thread got deleted even with the janny babysitting it for you?

hearts missing

How would you improve upon them?

Why are you ignoring the 4 stages before this? This is like posting final omnislash in FFVII and pretending that's the final fight.

It's more satisfying with better animations, enemy feedback, and there are more mechanics you're forced into to defeat enemies and especially bosses. Stealing things with WW's hookshot for example was fun for me and I just like slicing up enemies in the N64 games. TP also controls way better than BOTW does while having more in-depth melee combat.

And I don't know what's wrong with the combat being "easier" when this trnanslates to enemies dying in a reasonable amount of time whereas BOTW's have like 50x more HP which is anti-fun. And BOTW has just outright worse melee combat with less options in exchange for more weapon types, but that isn't fun.

NTA but cut out about 90% of the filler items. I'd rather not have 100 ways to kill an enemy, if they're all inefficient compared to just whacking them with a sword.
,
You mean the boring crap where you and Ganondorf just fling swords at eachother? No different from fighting a Dark Nut in TP.

so retard post a good final boss then

Kek do you have any actual arguments? Guess not.

No different from fighting a Dark Nut in TP

So like the Ganondorf final boss from TP?

complains about hp bloat while posting genshit

Yeah, the most underwhelming Zelda game on the gamecube. What a disappointing POS.

sloprarria

90% of the fight is hold right and M1

tendies actually think this

Literally everything Bore Of The Wild 1 and 2 did was already done better by other games YEARS before this was even revealed, but tendies praise it as the best game of all time because they only play Nintendo games, and have no frame of reference, to them these things that other games have been doing for well over a decade are new and wondrorus because Nintendo has never done them. This is like some isolated village that has never had contact with the outside world past the 1600s being introduced to electricity, or 'modern' medicine as it was in the 1800s.

who knew that nearly every game dev was a tendie

I dont know if its a bad thing but it makes it hard to judge as one cohesive package. It doesnt have an identity crisis as it clearly knows what it wants to do and a game this big needs some variation or else you ran the chance of being too monotonous but it makes for an incredibly inconsistent experience, sometimes i hate the game, sometimes its meh, sometimes its ok and sometimes i love it, and its not short bursts either, its long sections of hate, love and boredom. More than any other game my feeling towards are mixed.

Sorry lad but i simply dont jive with it, i cant stand how despite the 3 humanoid enemies having so many ways they interact with the world all the fights against them feel the same boring shit, not to mention your weapon going to waste only to get a WORSE weapon by the end of it, it would have been better to not engage with it at all, which is what im doing so far.

The music so far is not my style but i can understand the direction they are going with it but yeah i didnt mention but so far the main plot/story is ASS, holy shit if i hear one more time about how a thousand years ago a big civ made big robots to help fight the big bad with the hero and heroine and the 4 great beasts are also there but then he mind controlled the robots and beasts im going to shoot my fucking brains out holy shit stop repeating yourself!

and how its presented

See while i agree the music is meh i think the world visually is nice, it suffers from being on the Switch but the scenery itself is nice and the artstyle helps hiding the console flaws

Still better than the glorified movieshit that is TOTK and BOTW's final bosses.

Untitled.png - 382x442, 105.07K

These games predate Wind Waker btw

Wind Waker was the most underwhelming game on the GameCube. Actually, the most underwhelming Zelda of all time. Nobody even bothered getting all heart pieces in that game, there’s no point and it’s a slog. Meanwhile CHADlight Princess has the most fun heart pieces in the series.

Literally everything Bore Of The Wild 1 and 2 did was already done better by other games YEARS before this was even revealed

He has to stack up every game in existence to compete with Nintendo's Zelda.

Kek'd

Genshin doesn't have HP bloat outside of those local legends which are strong bosses that are meant to be a challenge. You can kill most bosses and every other enemy in seconds unless they have some kind of mechanic.

Combat in previous zelda games at the very least had a point other than to just be copy pasted over a bloated open world to try and make people think it wasn't totally devoid of content.

I see you're still mad about that AC6 player calling you out

If we're talking open world games, Terraria bested BOTW and TOTK in every way. Like literally the only thing they have over Terraria is a third dimension, not that they even use it that well.

Terraria is open world in the same way Super Metroid is.

terraria is literally on raid, you have to progress how the game demands you to
BOTW gives the player freedom, this is why its universally praised

Where's the "unskippable strider cutscene", anon?

I'd also take Super Metroid over BOTW and TOTK, to be honest. It has a better world, one that's fun to explore instead of an empty wasteland. what's your point?

Empty worlds like Daggerfall

you have to progress how the game demands you to, BOTW gives the player freedom

So how do you skip the tutorial and rush right to Ganon? How do you sequence break into the divine beasts without doing their respective quests?

I agree about the art being nice, it low key has really good graphics too. The shrines, enemy design(mostly), NPCs, music, and UI drag its presentation down for me though. Even Link is way less expressive than previous Links.

hes still seething because he got called out for never playing AC6

hes saying terraria literally isn't open world, you progress how the devs intended

The point is that you explore in BOTW and in Terraria you build houses and then look at a wiki to find out how to summon king plantsmeltz who you’ll build an arena for.

hes saying terraria literally isn't open world, you progress how the devs intended

see

Terraria

compared with botw

so you were trolling, this is like comparing apples to oranges,
red delicious apples to those dekopon japanese oranges that cost like $20

So how do you skip wall of flesh and rush right to moon lord?

explore so you can find korok poop and shrines that just give the same recycled rewards over and over

Wow, I'm so enticed.

Use mods to do so. You can't do that in TOTK and BOTW because Nintendo outlawed mods. I guess you could use ryujin and yuzu, but you said those were unplayable and only the switch version could be played. Whoops!

j-j-just cheat

holy cope

>explore so you can find korok poop and shrines that just give the same recycled rewards over and over

he says when the entire "gameplay" loop of terraria is spamming the same boss for recycled rewards over and over

BOTW offers you freedom

but don't you dare go against the creator's artistic vision!

lol-laugh.gif - 220x220, 171.36K

no argument

I feel bad for the people who actually play terraria because a larper like you associating with the fanbase makes it shit

Dropped this halfway and I won't be playing its DLC sequel

Why is it so wrong to consider Terraria to be a better open world? Really, what is the in thinking that it just does the concept better than Zelda?

ACfag getting raped yet again, day after day, year after year. Brutal.

Do you really mean it was a watershed moment in video gaming if games never learnt anything from it and are basically the same as before?

*what is the sin in thinking that it does the concept better

Why is it so wrong to consider Terraria to be a better open world?

It doesn't have a world though. A flat 2D plane isn't a world.

He is extra upset because a few hours ago it was revealed he doesn't own and have never played Armored Core 6, I suspect he doesn't even own terraria or pizza tower

he says seething with rage every time someone says they like zelda

I'm pretty sure he has never played any game he talks about at least I hope so because his opinions are so stupid that it'd be very embarassing if he came up with them after actually playing the games

a flat 2d plane isn't a world

Say that to the NES, SNES, and gameboy Zeldas. Are they bad for being 2D?

Why do you guys get so angry at someone considering a non-nintendo game to just be better at something? Does this really hurt you so much?

Considering the last time he booted a zelda game up to try "own BOTW fans" he ended making himself look like a retard because he didn't know ALTTP's opening is a tutorial hallway
you're the who came to a thread to seethe because someone likes zelda

What the fuck is there to learn from breath of the empty open world?

Mogged by a chink gacha on release even

Fucking hell, He was arguing about some inane shit 10 hours ago and he's still going.
You guys need to stop falling for it and just tell him to fuck off.

Anyway games great, loved taking my time to explore both times around. Seeing the differences in familiar areas was nice.
Anyone who thinks koroks are something you actively look for instead of happen upon as you from from A to B has likely never played the game.

I'd rather not have 100 ways to kill an enemy, if they're all inefficient compared to just whacking them with a sword.

Bro is soulless

bad game tbqhdesu

The worst thing about acfag is he's autistic enough to engage you equally autistic dumb cunts constantly 24/7 and keeps these shitty threads around. Without him for you all to screech over they'd die 3 posts in. Considering you fuckers all seem to live in here and have nothing better to do with your lives, you should probably just be thanking him.

it's not even true, there's many more efficient ways to kill enemies than "whack them with a sword"

of course in order to know that he'd have to have played the game but that's obviously too much to ask

YOU'RE THE ONE SEETHING

ignore that we spam game journalist shit in every single thread where someone even slightly speaks ill of Nintendo

Still find it funny how the game makes takes a jab at anyone silly enough to find every korok, and its even funnier how the anti-nintendo cult tried to paint it as some evil trick the game plays on you despite the game telling you when you've maxed out everything

Is BOTW the ultimate filter for deciding whether or not someone has a consciousness? Or any degree of sentience, for that matter?

The issue is if you ignore him he just samefags and spams anyway, only things like samus image dump that move so fast they just drown him out really keep the retard away because women scare him

Say that to the NES, SNES, and gameboy Zeldas. Are they bad for being 2D?

No those are 40 year old games. They the peak of design back then. We had to use our imagination that we were playing something like BotW.

doesn't he reply to himself too

I'd say thats actual sandbox games, but BOTW is a close contender for judging if someone has a soul

No those are 40 year old games.

So they're shit? Because a good game would be good regardless of how old it is. You'd want to keep going back to it, no matter what.

You're saying that you hate all 2D zeldas.

I actually didnt think about the UI much, its pretty soulless but it doesnt hurt i guess, i did dislike the main title screen though, a fucking screensaver slideshow of promotional art goddamn thats bad. The enemy designs in an art sense are fine i think, i dont like the big mooks but the rest have an unique identity, the pig work as the jobber, the wizards are whimsical and dickish in their attitude and the centaur guys are vicious looking. Its not very creative but in a way i think being more traditional helps the more magical fantasy vibes the world has.

The npcs are fine, no one is going to stick with me but they help make the world feel alive, though i will admit it might be my unfamiliarity with the series speaking here as i never got into zelda, this is pretty much my second game zelda game besides AlttP which i played as a kid, so maybe the npcs arent up to par with the series standards.

Yes, if you actually think it's amazing and groundbreaking and not merely 'things other games did better years ago in a Nintendo package', you shouldn't legally be considered a human, or a person, or alive

How so? BOTW and TOTK have better gameplay and they are not just glorified gambling machines like Genshin.
It's funny how Nintendo added actual gacha machines to TOTK just to dunk on Genshin.

Shrines are a mistake.
I'll take 15-35 classic mini dungeons with their own environmental aesthetic, music, enemies and thematic puzzle mechanics over another fucking forgettable shrine that's just a fucking square magitech room.
God they're so fucking bad.

At the least it's a good litmus test to see if someone can have an opinion on a game without game journalists spoonfeeding them an opinion.

reminder his poster's opinion on any game is "its bad if too many people like it"

Say that to the NES, SNES, and gameboy Zeldas. Are they bad for being 2D?

No those are 40 year old games. They the peak of design back then. We had to use our imagination that we were playing something like BotW.>You're saying that you hate all 2D zeldas.

If Nintendo announced a new 2D Zelda for Swirch 2 everyone would say

ok that's very cute Nintendo but where's the REAL next gen Zelda.

Seethe harder.

They should’ve fired whoever made this trailer because the game could’ve never lived up to how epic they made it look here youtu.be/zw47_q9wbBE?si=2Z197VLIRVqnxVg5

Funny, that was Arthur's opinion on Baldur's Gate 3. "it won over TOTK, that means it's bad because too many westerners liked it".

Guess we're not that different.

If Nintendo announced a new 2D Zelda for Switch 2 everyone would say

>ok that's very cute Nintendo but where's the REAL next gen Zelda.

Isn't that exactly what happened with EoW?

If Nintendo announced a new 2D Zelda for Swirch 2 everyone would say

You literally praised Echoes of Wisdom over every single 3D game that came out that year. You liar. By your logic, you should never praise EOW over any 3D game.

Yes you are seething, you frantically spamming the archive isn't helping your case

I wonder if the masses would still hold this opinion if the latest 2D games didn't have that cheap, dogshit funko-pop art style.

Honestly I wouldn't mind seeing the return of Toon Link for a 2D game game (that isn't Triforce Heroes of Four Swords dogshit.)

But then you would complain that the open world is too empty and that it has no content

If I'm the one seething, why do you constantly seek the validation of game journalists just to attack someone on Anon Babble?

you're the only one mentioning journos
you seem upset that people genuinely enjoy a nintendo game

Well, in hidnsight what you see here is what you get, a lot of shots of looking out over vast empty land
But yeah that last quarter of the trailer that makes it look like Zelda is actually in the game proper and it's a story about them was a lie

you're the only one mentioning journos

I guess you just missed these posts.

Then make the open-world smaller? Put more focus on NPC side quests and enemy/boss variety?
BoTW's open world was too big for its own good anyway.

There just weren't enough enemies which made it feel cheap to me, and the bosses mostly had that robotic whatever aesthetic which, like the shrines, I thought sucked. It just has such a bland character that takes me out of the otherwise nice aesthetic.

The npcs are fine

They're literally Miis! And idk they just don't have the same kind of character previous Zelda NPCs had. They're more like MMO NPCs, literal who characters.

this is pretty much my second game zelda game besides AlttP

Playing the other games growing up was great. I think they still hold up so maybe give them a shot? OOT/MM both have PC ports, WW and TP are best played on Dolphin with some QOL mods, then SS is probably best on Switch emulators or the Switch itself.

this

trailer guardians make it seem like they are unstoppable rape machines you really have to tryhard to defeat

game guardians do little but snipe you from long range with their slow laser beams that can be parried back at them, also just bum rushing them with a decent weapon and hacking off their legs makes them a pushover because they can't use the laser cannon anymore

so terraria is shit then? journos gave that game a good score and still praise it

Fanbase plays Ubisoft open world for the first time

Pisses and shits themselves in praise

When did I use game journos to praise Terraria?

there are towers so its asscreed!

please ignore that asscreed towers mark everything on your map so you can mindlessly checklist every thing and that BOTW towers just give you a map and a high point to look around from

Genshin may be a dogshit game these days but I have to give it to Hoyo for their environmental art direction, immersion and open-world map design in general.

you're trying to claim the game is bad because journos like it and that the only reason someone could like it is because journos do, so the same goes for terraria

Imagine nintendo makes a competent first person shooter one day? Tendies would lose their fucking minds and claim it’s the greatest innovation since penicillin.

IMG_1487.jpg - 356x500, 24.05K

you're trying to claim the game is bad because journos like it

I'm telling you to stop using journalists as an argument for any game. It's one step above using twitter screencaps and grifter youtube videos.

seeing people on Anon Babble felating this game shattered my previously strongly held belief that most nintendofags on Anon Babble also had PCs

That used to be the cases, but many zoomers are largely tech illiterate. Maybe some have a shitty laptop, but some of them literally have no PC at all, unbelievable as it sounds.

cool, stop using journos as an argument for trying to claim a game is bad

Where did I do that, at any point ITT?

it is Skyrim that Anon Babble won't stop fellating

Skyrim was shat on to hell and back when it came out.

they already did that back in the N64 days

the worst thing about botw is the level of discussion around it

it attracted the ire of the worst schizos possible and it's impossible to talk about it with any sort of nuance because the butthurt is so strong it has to be entirely negative with the most forced "criticism" imaginable

Whose fault is it that you called everyone a snoy for criticizing the game? Who kept bringing up metacritic scores and game journalists in an attempt to defend the game?

Using Yuzu instead of Ryujinx

Are you retarded?

Whose fault is it

yours

For as much as I love BOTW, that retarded resource management system turned me into a side-stepping cheeser and it ruined my gameplay. Why care about weapons when you can just glide to the nearest Hinox? They don't wake up if you land on them btw, so you can replenish most of your inventory this way. Why would you ever use elemental arrows when they're so difficult to replenish outside of gay cheese farms? Why open treasure chests if you'll just waste whatever you get on a Boko camp? It takes the heal potion hoarding element of JRPG gameplay and dials it up to 100 in a game that's not a JRPG, but then again, why bother doing a 999 completionist run if you can't even hold every item in your inventory because Nintendo didn't plan for it?

They did twice with Goldeneye and Splatoon 1. Everyone laughed at them.

I didn't tell you to call anyone a snoy. I didn't force you to post any of this

I think it just keeps getting better. Though the Chasm still hasn't been topped for me.

Yeah man, I loved all the crazy items you find in BOTW and all the dungeons around the world.

Its genuinely unhealthy how there can be over a dozen blatant shilling threads being spammed yet one thread has someone saying they like BOTW or think its a good game and you'll have a thread with 700 posts of the most unhinged retards on the site seethe about it

What a shame. Shouldn't have worshipped game journos.

If you don't want to be called a snoy then stop acting like a snoy, the first step is to not shit yourself when someone says they like a nintendo game

Breath of the Wild still received some solid threads until Tears of the Kingdom released and ran its reputation into the ground.
Basically Tears of the Kingdom amplified all of BoTW's issues to an insane degree and tarnished the former game's rep as a result.

thanks for proving the point, unhinged retard

A snoy would proudly flaunt game journalist scores, anytime it's convenient for them. Hell, they started the whole famitsu thread spam back when it was media creates or something. And they did it to gloat about sales.

Guess what you're doing right now?

Guess what you're doing right now?

talking about why unhinged snoys seethe endlessly at the idea that someone likes a nintendo game
why does this notion trigger you so much? What other groups get violently offended by someone liking a nintendo game?

Red Steel 2 was actually a good game.
The first one is horrible, but the sequel? Good.

talking about why unhinged snoys seethe endlessly at the idea that someone likes a nintendo game

But you don't. A game journalist told you to like the game. You don't like it yourself.

Otherwise, why would you incessantly bring them up as if they were beacons of wisdom? And why do you trash games that don't have game journalist approval?

everyone laughed at them

then they tried and failed to copy them

dogwater

You can say "dogshit" on Anon Babble you zoomer fuck.

And it was only made worse with Aonuma's cynical arrogant comments he made about the pre-BotW games right after the Game Awards in 2023. It really cements the idea that BotW was Aonuma's last resort to finally step out of OoT's shadow, no matter how much of Zelda's game design/story/aesthetic identity he had to throw out or how much direct copying of external popular games he had to do.

show me in the OP where he said journos told him to like the game

Isn't it true that Aonuma never even finished Zelda 1, so the people saying that Breath/Tears was inspired by that are just lying?

He never put forth an argument in favor of the game, that didn't involve game journo dicksucking.

so you can't
you're just seething because someone said BOTW is good

Aonuma isn't even the guy directing these games anymore, it's Fujibayashi now.

yeah fuck that anon for criticizing our beloved heckin Nintendarino

they

one developer

OP never condemned these posts So he's guilty of it until otherwise. It should be an easy task, right? You don't need popularity to explain why a game is good, right?

Did anyone care about Foamstars or any Splatoon game? These games are like Horizon. Nobody wants them and they keep releasing them.
Back in 2009, Nintendo of Japan employees didn't play non-Nintendo games. They had no idea what was Portal.

there are STILL games being released inspired by goldeneye

Tell me a thing Goldeneye did that Marathon or Duke Nukem 3D didn't do.

no one cared about foamstars because it was a bootleg
splatoon is massively popular

sealion starts his cope because basic reality is beating him again

still waiting for you to prove you've played armored core 6

Inspired by what in Goldeneye exactly? I can't remember it doing anything revolutionary or unique.

thats because you weren't born yet

still waiting for you to prove you've played armored core 6

I proved that you can die during the Strider escape segment. Your turn. :)

I know you're seething because people are enjoying a metroid thread somewhere, but I'm bored of dunking on you now

Where? Still don't know anyone IRL who has played any of the three games.

can't even quote properly

Ease up bro. You are seething very hard right now.

I proved I own and played the game, you've still never done the same acliar

No you didn't. You said you couldn't die at any point during the Strider mission, when even a 5 second search on youtube proves you wrong.

I very much was. Still, are you going give any examples of anything revolutionary or unique Goldeneye did?

You say this because you didn't play Marathon nor Duke Nukem 3D.

Being fully 3D instead of 2.5d

Marathon released December 21, 1994

Goldeneye released August 23 1997

Wow, Kimosabi! Apple and Microsoft were smart enough to not sabotage their hardware like Nintendo did listening to Miyamoto-san.

why are you lying? before totk was even announced the board was covered in botw seethe threads, it's been like that ever since the game released

I honestly can't tell if OP is a genuine delusional schizo tendie or if he's just being an ironic schizo tendie

Yes. It was just a dishonest way for him to justify his radical redirection for the series, claiming it has some connection to the earliest games to give it legitimacy through alleged precedent.
Aonuma's still the one accepting the awards and titles on behalf of BotW and TotK, and giving interviews trashing the majority of the series.

It's the same game journo worshipping fanboy who's plagued these threads for a decade now. He's prone to lying through his teeth, like he once claimed that he liked Elden Ring (to throw off accusations of him being a fanboy) but in the same breath he said that it was putrid dogshit that wasn't fit to lick Nintendo's boots. When pressed on this, he called it a "term of endearment" lol.

Sad!

Indeed, and he's been doing this for a long time.

Untitled.png - 1236x152, 52.97K

Anon Babble was overran by zoomers who grew up on nothing but phone games and Mario Party in the late 2010s, if this game came out in 2013 Anon Babble would've mocked it relentlessly

evolutions of open world

zero influence on open world games

everyone goes back to ubislop

Guess not

Yeah it changed uhhhhhhhh

To be honest, militant Switchfags have abused the absolute shit out of the tolerance they were generally afforded by the board culture out of pity/catharsis for the shitflinging from Sonyfags they endured last generation, and it feels like we're finally seeing the breaking point.

It's refreshing seeing anons routinely call this shit out more often recently, though that probably has to do partially with these spergs starting to creep into threads outside their usual domains more often. Also, the constant whataboutery to Sony or playing victim and claiming there's a conspiracy out to get Nintendo whenever Nintendo is even mildly criticized.

No, it wouldn't. Everyone owned a Wii U here by then like the Stream Deck now. This is why Anon Babble regulars don't represent all gamers.

he keeps replying to himself and posting in the void while nobody reads his drivel

actual mental illness, quite disturbing in fact

The funniest is how they now flat out admit to hating any game that isn't a switch exclusive. even multiplats get shat on if you imply that you liked them better than their nintendo alternative.

I dunno why this fanbase acts up so much. Yes, the snoys shitposting against them was bad, but geez, this is getting even worse.

I think it reached the point of worse when it surpassed how long peak PS4 shitflinging lasted for. Which was about three fucking years ago.

Skyrim was shat on to hell and back when it came out.

No, that was some time after then Anon Babble decided that it was reddit to dislike it.

This is how I feel about it. I don't have a Switch or Wii U so I wouldn't know but people are complaining that it doesn't have the superficial things that makes Skyrim. The stamina system looks ass but I like how you could actually climb that mountain.

No

lol

No, that was some time after then Anon Babble decided that it was reddit to dislike it.

There were constant sky rimjob threads on the board from the trailer up until the release, literally almost every day, when the game leaked a couple of days early everyone couldn't stop laughing at how outdated it looked and played and how Todd did it again

You weren't there

3985.jpg - 960x860, 88.73K

So why can't you walk straight to Ganon and have the bow and silver arrows given to you in Zelda 1?

No, that was some time after then Anon Babble decided that it was reddit to dislike it.

another open word zoned collectathon with copy paste eyesore trash everywhere, but this time with 10% main story which is okay this time since it's Zelda and has nice physics

I'll stick to linear short games, bullet hells, fighters and rhythm games.

waepon breaking ruined it

This, i played the leak and finished the game and told everyone it was very mediocre. I remember Alduin and dragons being the most retarded shit I have ever seen.

why is your game so dark

having unbreakable weapons with cheats doesn't make it any better, it arguably makes it worse

it was just openworld slop mate

Nintentroons cannot even explain why this empty pointless game is supposedly a "good open world" game. I will stick to Elder Scrolls KINO thank you very much

find nice looking weapon

using it makes it disappear

wow great system!

This was 5at game that made stop caring about Zelda games, so in a sense OP was right

No, the generally lackluster/circular rewards from combat ruined it. Same issue with the stickers in Paper Mario Sticker Star - very little incentive to engage in battles with non-boss enemies instead of just skipping them as often as possible.

Breakable weapons also severely ruined the appeal of weapons. Most of them are so generic and lifeless looking, because they have to be to make sure you don't get attached to disposable weapons.

I'm just saying it's a bad game weapon wise overall

it's not "tendies" sucking BotW's 2-incher
everyone in my circle of online/offline friends buys and plays Nintendo games habitually
no one I know likes BotW
not a soul
it's literally not Nintendo quality
fuck, there's a minor Snoy podcast I'm subscribed to (ESL Europe so yeah) all they play is Souls-likes and guess what? they fucking love BotW
Nintendo took the franchise I've spent the most money on and turned it into Snoyfeed

Shader.

your diapers

why would you use a shader that makes your game look like ass

I don't think it looks bad. And I use it occasionally for variety. Spice of life and all that.

Sorry about your brain damage
Still, that doesn't make your catttloid opinion worth listening to

Congrats on your high IQ
Because, that makes your huntoid opinion worth listening to

Zelda is not for tendies. Zelda is a dignified franchise unlike your usual tendie slop.
Go play your fucking... Bing Bong Party slamboga or some shit.

damn... mustered all your originality and independent thought to write that, didn't ya?

I don't like mustard

people who refuse to throw the masterball in Pokemon

There's no incentive to fight enemies in Ocarina of Time

I had a WiiU.

tendie detected
opinion discarded

This. It has that imsim DNA throughout it, which helps make the world feel so reactive and alive even without bustling cities, NPC routines, and the like.

That used to be the case, but it really isn't anymore. Plenty major studios have abandoned their proprietary engines over the past handful of years. CDPR, 343, Respawn, Bioware, GSC, & hell even Obsidian all took the UE5 pill. This isn't a decade ago anymore where major studios were aggressively tuning their engines for specific wells optimized tasks or ideas. I wish it was, but it isn't.

I also had a Wii U, it plays every Nintendo game up to Switch.

all took the UE5 pill

which emphasizes what I said, they modify that game engine to suit their production. No big name developer uses stock UE5

No big name developer uses stock UE5

lol

Shh...

Yeah... I don't see it, and I used to love Zelda, and I like Open Worlds normally.
To me it was Nintendo making a "kid's sandbox "Minecraft" adaptation with Zelda in it", and not something really pivotal to video games. I was floored by Oblivion or Skyrim, or the reactive narrative stuff in Fallout New Vegas. Sandbox physics playing through Crysis. And older Zeldas had much more going for them with tone/mood where it didn't just feel like a "living world" or whatever, but rather that you were on an adventure. Unlike most games, Zelda made everything part of that adventure, interactively. The narrative follows the mechanics and vice versa. Unlike a Call of Duty corridor shooter or "uncharted" where you consume the narrative by looking at the game between repetitive shooting galleries Zelda was always contextual, like a Point & Click Adventure, but where it's more action-oriented so that you feel like you're really in the world.

To me BotW was the culmination of nothing -- just hitting the reset button to please Jeff Gerstmann and IGN 40-year-old dudes who no longer "feel the magic of the NES era" in modern vidyas.

The result is boring and forgettable, and most adults who claim it's a masterpiece mistook the brand's revered legacy for its qualities, and jumped on the bandwagon of a game literally made for little kids thinking they're part of a zeitgeist.

If you like BotW and think it "revolutionized" gaming, you're fucking embarrasing to me.

cringe

Name a single big developer who uses stock UE5

to me it was just [other game]

This is what is known as reductionism, and you're still a kid.

based

There's nothing based about it, because his logic isn't sound. Applying the exact same logic as his Skyrim is just Oblivion again.

based, agreed

nah he's based

So shit Minecraft did 10 years prior but with actual gameplay utility instead of just for the "huh neat" factor

Nothing about it was revolutionary, Nintendo just didn't feel like making meaningful open world content so they scattered around some half baked systems with nowhere to use them and called it a day, there's no reason for anyone to copy that approach to open world since it wouldn't sell without the Zelda brand

tendies unironically think ubislop open world design and mechanics that were already done before many times are "mindblowing" and "groundbreaking" when Nintendo does it

Seriously, I thought normalfags got chased away by the hack. Guess not.

holy samefag

It wasn't done well before Zelda showed the industry how it's done.

Fpbp

Minecraft

Anon...

first post bitch post

agreed

Post one (1) example of an open world game done well before BOTW.
There is one example but you're probably too much of a zoomer to know it.

No. Nu-zelda just poorly copied mechanics that were already done a fuckload of times before. One of my favourites is how they added lego vehicle building in zelda TikTok but it's a shallow, limited version of what you could do in something like Besiege, then it runs on a time limit because no fun allowed. And then it's largely pointless, especially when you want to make an armed vehicle because most enemies can't do SHIT against a tank.
Nu-zelda is for zoomer normalfags who dom't play videogames. That explains why you soiface over poorly made mundane bullshit because it has a zelda label.

cope

Wrong.

Discord link?

yeah nigga its zen

I have the yuzu ver still runs at 4k 60

Nu-zelda just poorly copied mechanics that were already done a fuckload of times before

Name one single game offering gameplay like BotW in 2017. You can't. So get fucked.

Post one (1) example of an open world game done well before BOTW.

Morrowind Oblivion Spider-Man 2 GTA3 Vice City San Andreas Bully Saints Row 2 Just Cause 2 Far Cry 2 Red Dead Redemption New Vegas Minecraft Witcher 3 Arkham City Black Flag

But I guess you wouldn't know them since they weren't on Nintendo consoles

Ubisoft, EA, Rockstar, Bethesda, etc. have been making open world games for a decade or even longer

genre is stagnating

Nintendo shows up

having no background in AAA 3D open world development, they decide on a whim "Here, let me try that"

right off the bat, Nintendo make the best open world game ever made on their very first attempt using a fucking toaster.

This will never not be hilarious.

You'll find the same garbage gameplay in ass creed games. Enjoy.

Morrowind

One good example. Everything else is completely laughable.

Absolutely none of these have the kind of freedom or chemistry engine offered by BotW - i.e Nintendo's game is on a completely different planet.

All you can do is stack up individual concepts in various different games and pretend this is somehow like BotW if you stack them all up.

There wasn't a single game anywhere offering the gameplay BotW delivered in 2017. There's still fuck all to compare today, except TotK.

And Anon Babble seethes about it every day!
Right on cue!
How does it feel to be a pathetic loser wasting his time on a thread about a game that makes you mald with anger?

Jesus Christ what a life

You are mentally ill

I'm in a thread about a game I enjoying saying how much I like it and laughing at losers like you who spend their time in a thread about a game that makes them upset. And I'm the mentally ill person?

No, mental illness is still seething about a game everyone agreed was amazing a decade ago.

What's your end game? Are you going to keep seething until 2050 when someone says "You know, BotW is a bit dated now". Will you finally know peace?

I guess you wouldn't know them since they weren't on Nintendo consoles

Nigger I don't even play Zelda on a nintendo console.

refer to

He has no response

I guess you wouldn't know them since they weren't on Nintendo consoles

I've been playing vidya since the Atari days. Currently making my way through E33. BotW is the best adventure game I've ever played on any system in the past 40 years.

Embarrassing

People laugh at you.

This is shameful grandpa, go play with your grandchildren instead of praising games made for them online as the peak of the medium

Bet you think the Very Hungry Caterpillar is the best book ever written

why are they like this?
what prompts them to throw away their dignity as human beings and become mindless serfs?

Brother, you're in a thread about something you dislike having pointless arguments. I think you're embarrassing.

You've given up, that's good

Wrong.

Can you refute it?

how would someone refute the act of desperately sucking cock? and what would even be the poinnt?

he can't refute

makes homosexual fantasies instead

This is unironically one of the worst games I've ever played. I'm glad I pirated and emulated it. It's incredibly ugly, even the emulated version that makes the game not look like an ugly ps3 game(the ps3 had better looking games than this crap), the music is absolute garbage(le random pianon notes, so fancy!), gameplay is garbage, same 4 enemies copy pasted all over the map, same copy pasted dungeons, loot is completely meaningless as it all breaks after a few hits, the (((emergent gameplay))) bullshit is fun for less than 15 minutes until you realize it's all meaningless and pointless. Absolute trash of a game and it's only praised because it's le nintendo game. The worst part is that some "people" think that this game is somehow revolutionary or that it did something new that we hadn't seen a billion times before. Shit game from a dead franchise owned by a shit decrepit company, 0/10 wouldn't pirate again.

There were fags saying that they prepared a notebook for in-game hints like it was a cryptic game.

look, i know you're a nintendo fan so i'm giving you a bit of leeway when it comes to how much effort ittakes you to underand things, but come on now
you are supposed to refute actual arguments, not the menaningless ramblings of a retarded cultist

Sorry, can you write that in english?

BotW bleeds gameplay, and Minecraft idk where to begin.

Worst game I ever played was Mario Sunshine, then again I've played a lot of games

Holy ESL.

it's just an incredibly weak skyrim wannabe with ZERO replay value.
i started replaying both games about 2 weeks ago actually. gave up botw after about 25 hours, still playing skyrim at 150 hours. queers of the queendom and breath of my asshole will never compare, despite clearly wanting to.

still playing skyrim at 150 hours

You don't have to be so eager to embarrass yourself...

the game still has actual shit to do after that long
botw has nothing, it's a dead world

I think he's making fun of you for thinking that 150 hours in skyrim is that much time.

Holy hell you're retarded. They aren't heavily modifying UE5 dude. They're using tons of stock functions as they are out of the box. If they were modifying and optimizing, they wouldn't be using lumen for everything or nanite instead of properly set up LODs.

Nah, I just think it's wild how people lose their minds if a game has more than one color palette and doesn't treat them like they're speedrunning a dopamine slot machine every 30 seconds. Not everything has to be grimdark or hyperrealistic to be good, gramps.

on Anon Babble also had PCs, it's like they had never played another open world game

this. Nintendies dont have a gpu so they didnt realize most games were like this.

You keep spouting samefagging this as if this very thread didn't start with someone posting their emulated PC screenshot.

most tendies dont emulate retard if fact they demand nintendo sue them for emulating. OPs pic is not the average nintendo customer.

It's 2025

i'm talking about for one character after two weeks of creating it, not the total amount of time i've ever spent on skyrim, so i guess that guy's a blithering retard

You're both retards. I was calling Skyrim a braindead dumbed down version of the braindead dumbed down version of Morrowind (Which was a dumbed down version of Daggerfall) and not worth pirating and spending 5 minutes on let alone over 100 hours.

most devs use different lighting you dumb fuck

When people say Nintendo games are for kids they're referring to their complete lack of challenge and exceeding gameplay simplicity, not their visuals

botw is barely worth a fraction of whatever amount of time you think skyrim is worth lol

I didn't bring up BOTW. I've been calling it trash this entire time. But you're even more pathetic.

botw killed zelda.

i hate every single one of you

You write like an obnoxious faggot who needs to get punched in the face really badly.

It's not a fucking immersive sim if there's no builds to choose how you are going to be going about things

Fpbp
Hit it in one.

Did nothing that hadn't been done before.

Yeah! That will prove those tendies wrong 10 years ago!

In both sales and metacritic scores, the metrics tendies love to fellate, RDR2 outdid it a year later. Lmao

RDR2 outdid it a year later

Wrong on both counts. The seethe is eternal.

Sold more, scored better. Seethe less.

lmao what are you gonna do about it sissy

Mulitplat
Less acclaim

Seethe more

fpbp
the tendie pisses his pants over seeing open world slop for the first time

Super Mario Sunshine is 100 times better than BotW

less acclaim

god, you niggers are such dishonest, worthless asslickers

BotW was so good I bought it twice.

Great to see Anon Babbletroons still shitting themselves in 2025.

Based retard. You'll have that Switch 2 emulator any day now.

Bore of the wild was multiplat too lmao

why buy games for your own enjoyment, when you can buy them to make your corporate masters happy?
it's like they enjoy being livestock

soulless

Still can't decide if this or TOTK is the greatest game of all time

It's the great debate.

What is Thief 1 or 2, faggot?

I would agree if I'd never played a open world game before.
If you have this shit is just lackluster and the formula has been done for more than a decade.

BotW spanked and humiliated every other open world game in 2017.

the game still has actual shit to do after that long

It's all so fucking BORING, though. It lacks good narrative flavour, the quest design is linear and samey, and the core gameplay, from the RPG mechanics to the combat, is incredibly braindead. I have never dragged myself through more than 10 hours of Skyrim in any attempt I've made to beat that game.

I still cannot believe how groundbreaking this game is

lol this nigga never played gmod

please tell me how to get to level 9 without beating all the other levels

This is a flaw of the original game, not an epic own against BOTW. Players should have been able to enter and attempt Lv9 at any time.

not an argument

Why can't you answer the question?

All you can do gmod is mock up Zelda scenarios and pretend you're playing BotW/TotK.

That's why you won't answer.

reddit spacing

still not an argument im afraid
it seems you have conceded

It did, but they hate it when you point that out.
Every other dev, even ubisofts were singing its praises, talking about how it was an entire decade ahead of anything else.
Then TotK came out and put everyone else another decade behind.

But ubisoft games have towers so same shit bro.

still doesn't answer the question.
