What’s Next for Zelda? 

Something like Dragon Quest Builders

THIS. God damn they keep doing her dirty with this 'reset to before the Ganondorf fight' save state bs. If people want to fight him again it would be so simple to just make a memory version playable kind of like Champion's Ballad.

It's so unsatisfying to put her back in limbo to ceaselessly wait around

I KNOW. It’s all I want. I’m begging, Nintendo. Please.

The two latest God of War games pulled this off just fine

Ehhh, it's moreso that Splatoon 3 and Switch Sports use a refined Breath of the Wild engine, and Tears was likely built on said refined engine. Ocarina of Time was built on the Mario 64 engine, and I believe Mario Sunshine also has traces to the Mario 64 engine as well

No , it uses the same engine. Totk was built upon and expanded on the foundation of Botw.

@@dante19890 Yeah, again, it's more that Splatoon 3 and Switch Sports use a version of the BoTW engine instead of the other way around. They probably just took the refinements of the engine used in those two games and applied them here.

Considering we usually get 1 zelda game per year i dont doubt they’ll probably cook something up over the next 7 years

@@omegalilbchass8270 There's 6 1/2 years til the next decade!

@@RetroCheats ok and?

Call me crazy but we're definetely getting a new 2d zelda in between the long wait for the next "real" game

@@omegalilbchass8270 just sounded like you believe we will get a new one this decade (2024 - 2029), which is possible

Cool idea! id like to see a link to the past remade

Nintendo should just pony up the dough to commission Studio Ghibli to create a Legend of Zelda movie already. At this point, it seems like that's the only way Zelda fans will ever be happy with the concept of a Zelda movie.

Fr bro

@@ThatAnArchyDudeI think Miyazaki is retired now though

Get Studio Ghibli on the line!

Sounds like a good idea

Yeah. In OoT, Ganondorf vows to soon take over the world, not just Hyrule, which implys that there's more out there than just Hyrule, which we know to be true.

Spirit trackers isn’t in hyrule

Yeah, it's obvious when looking at the map for botw/totk it's obvious that hyrule is in the corner of the land mass/continent it's on. Wish we could explore more. Hopefully, we can if Totk/Botw gets another sequel or in a new iteration of the land

Termina is an alternate dimension, however in oracles of ages/seasons link is in holodrum.

@@Natsu24ify it is

Yes PLZ

What would that look like? Everything was wrapped up there for good, to undo the events and ending would mean completely retconning it

@@miscellaneousmedia3753maybe perhaps a prequel or some loose end that could come up in some magic nintendo way

SAME YES

@@miscellaneousmedia3753 bit of a cliffhanger how Midna just left at the end never to be seen again

don't hold your breath, mate

Yes, like elden ring. Open world that funnels you to linear dungeons.

They really could make vital things clearer. Getting a main rune shouldn’t be somewhat obscure because you falsely tell the player to not enter a main section of the map

@@kukri52231lol don’t compare that trash to Zelda. Incomplete overpowered enemies game.

@@pakigangsta5somebody’s bad at video games that aren’t for kids

If the depths are back, I would love to see little dungeons which light up more light but are like shrines but longer. It could be like the towers above ground and each one would be under a big landmark in each region like death mountain in eldin

@@boggle4763 god I hope towers shrines and the chasm do not make a return, at least not the chasm in any sense of how it is in totk. I’d be interested in an underground like that perhaps… but not the one portrayed in totk at least not again

Jesus died for our sins on the cross and rose from the dead three days later!

​@@sakuparkkonen2959the koroks died on the cross

@@caravaneerkhedagreed! I was so curious about the depths, I explored there first and was pretty disappointed in how repetitive it was. The only exciting thing down there were the 2 dungeons and 3 Yiga fights. Not even a fitting reward for lightning up all light roots. The towers and shrines were ok though.

Yeah, I'd go with this. We got the Open World - so a truly Open 'Wind Waker' and exploring a more vast world with Oceans (preferably a new Hyrule or even totally new Region) is the way. _Or_ space - but I don't know how that would work. And with the Successful formula now established with Tears where they can blend old with new: I think we won't be disappointed.

I was thinking this too. Just found a boat today and it was kind of lame because there's only like 1 island to explore. I don't exactly need a windwaker remake, but incorporating the seas and underwater territory into the open world format would be great.

Being able to swim like Horizon would be nice

Underwater exploration needs to be a thing again.

@@rachedsoussi9802Not targeted towards 5 year olds if possible XD

It be cool to get like king link and queen Zelda and it’s set like 70 years after so you’re a new link

Demise is long gone the closest demise that’s not demise is ganondorf with the secret stone

I would like to see that too which is why I can appreciate some spin-off games set in the same world as totk. Like a spin-off game that focuses more on Hyrule’s rebuilding.

@@gentlemanbronco3246yeah that and it be cool if they did another county that invades if they use Gannondorf again have him be burn out side of hyrule

I want some form of vaati fight

Oh boy do i have news for you

Extreme long shot (hehheh) but maybe Link gets corrupted by what's left of Ganondorf? Idk but something like that might work.

​@@IHitTheWaterit wouldn't be far-fetched, either. We've already experienced getting handicapped (figuratively and literally) by Ganondorf trying to take us out and nearly succeeding. I'd be interested in seeing a duel of control-taking. There's a seriously missed opportunity from Wind Waker with regards to the command ability you gain in the tower where you control the little stone dudes; the boss was a stone head with disembodied hands which I immediately tried to take control of in the same way as the little ones, thinking that you'd battle via "stop hitting yourself" tactics. It would be wild to have Ganondorf try his hand yet again at commandeering our stuff a la guardians and the arm-withering blast, only to have given us the key to power like the shadow shard in Twilight Princess, allowing us to give him a taste of his own medicine. We're halfway there with the Zonai arm and the Slate/Pad, and it's already been proven in Wind Waker that powers of good can use control magic.

@@IHitTheWater I could get behind that. Fighting to stop his influence spreading across you, could lead to a great dark link situation

@@mixiekins My take on "corruption" could be something like Metroid Prime 3 - the corruption becomes an ultimate attack but there's a risk with using it, maybe have it use heart containers or fill a corruption meter that could lead to a game over like MP3. This would give a more "powerful" approach to Link too which would fit with the Red/Din/Power theme.

I was talking about this. What if they made a modern day time Zelda, like our realm just two regular people, and they become the next chosen warriors to defeat the rise of demise. I would def like to see the art style in real engine like khs. But that’s just me.

I mean we were kinda starting to get that in ToTK. Look how much Tarrey Town was starting to expand. As well as both BoTW and ToTK having advanced ancient technology I think the next installment will have more advanced weapons and technology as well as fully fleshed big towns (which is also something the Switch would really struggle with). Imagine an entire underwater Zora City, A city inside Death Mountain, A big island similar to Lurelin Village’s tropical theme, etc. It’s definitely possible.

I rather cut out my own kidney.@@Lcren.90

I don’t know why you would have to be creative to make a linear story or a story that simply doesn’t take place in the past. It‘s not hard at all.

@@bowser1166 It's funny because a link between worlds had a perfect story that took place in the present and that game was open world as well.

@@firesnakex8 I mean, that’s another reason why I just don’t get this whole approach to the story in TotK. I’m not finished with it yet, but I already don’t understand why you would choose to make a really great story with suspense and plot twists if you can experience the story without any suspense at all if you simply don’t watch the memories in the right order. It made sense in BotW, but it barely does in TotK. Zelda is way better for stories that progress as the game progresses…

@@bowser1166 Exactly. The story is even more frustrating because I just feel like I am walking around to watch videos about the story if that makes sense. Like why do I have to walk around and put so much effort just to watch like 2 min or 1 min videos when I can just search it up? It would make more sense if the cutscenes felt like actual events or like I'm actually participating in the story where there's build up and the cutscene gives me direction as to what I have to do next like an actual cutscene.

Exactly. The story needs to progress with the player. It ruins all the suspense of it and it doesn’t allows for less creativity for the story. My problem is that the world feels kind of static like because the story is in the past and ganondorf isn’t really playing an active role in the story until you go to where he is. The games has to be slightly less modular in terms of what order you complete the quest and make it so there is a correct order to complete the story to make it more coherent and make it so the story can happen more in the present. For example they could let you do the regional phenomena happen in whatever order the player wants, but you can’t complete other main quest until all 4 are complete. Moving on for the next game it would be cool if the incarnation of demise appears somewhere on the same continent as hyrule but not in it and Zelda and link have to go on an adventure to stop him and they form an alliance with other countries. Mabye the sages would come with you and you would participate in dungeons in other countries. There could also be a defense scenario where you have to protect another country or city from the demise’s attack. Maybe the triforce can be spread across the continent which allows the new incarnation of demise to obtain the triforce of power. Could also provide information to link and Zelda about the origin of the curse and the original sealing of demise as other countries might have it recorded. Another cool idea I saw was if the person who eventually became Denise’s incarnation wasn’t evil and was corrupted because something happened to him such as a major loss due to war or something and demise’s hatred took advantage of that. It would be better then just having a one dimensional villain who urges to rule. Then the story can be about saving that person and removing demise’s corruption. Or it could go like the incarnation of demise would be trying to produce a new body for demise, so once the incarnation of demise had his corruption removed demise would descend into this new body and become the final boss you fight with the help of the person who you just removed the corruption from.

I've kinda thought for a long time that it has felt like Nintendo keeps toying with the idea of using a group of adventurers instead of a lone adventurer but they keep letting it fall short so the extra heroes become supporting cast instead. Several different games throughout the series keep cultivating the seeds planted by the "Hylian Knights" in LttP's lore. The transformation masks in MM each contained the spirit of somebody who had been respected among his people. OoA had the character Ralph kinda running around on his own parallel adventure offscreen. FSA mentioned the mysterious "Hylian Knights" again, with corrupted spirits of four knights acting as boss fights. And FSA's gameplay if you played singleplayer used a neat formation-based idea where you could control all of the characters at once as a team. (I'm still bitter that TFH ****ed up so bad and made the solo gameplay unplayable in some parts instead of just bringing back the team controls which had already worked great in FSA. Only game in the series that I've ever hated.) TP had that whole mismatched band of "freedom fighters" that were already trying in their own ways to help the kingdom even before they recruited TP Link's help. SS had Groose and all of the other students of the Knight Academy. BotW's lore is all about a cooperative effort between champions of all of the races in Hyrule's alliance, but then the actual gameplay in the game's modern day is still just a solo adventure. And then there's TotK... I suppose technical issues in having a bunch of NPCs keep up with the player led to the party members needed to be teleporting phantoms instead of keeping the actual character around. But the result is that that added a team but it feels like yet another effort that stopped short of giving us team-based gameplay and it ultimately just feels like a solo mission with a bit of added flare.

@@MuljoStpho I'd note that while there's the phantoms as your main party, there ARE events where you assist other groups in specific zones, AND we technically do have a mini-party for each of the 4 dungeons (well, 1 partner, but still) And of course there's phantom hourglass, where you technically control both Link and Zelda. Of course, there's always the alternative of making a character that flies, and thus wouldn't have issues keeping up. And with that in mind, there's 2 clear candidates for such: Another fairy companion, except giving the fairy companion actual combat capabilities and potentially player control (like cappy in Odyssey), or... Fi (need I say more?).

That's so unlike Zelda games. That's why they will totally do exactly this!

Zelda is an adventure game not an RPG, the focus will always be on a Link.

@@ZephyrK. Thank you dear Mr/Mrs only-literally-speaking! Of course the main focus is Link, just like watching totk trailers tells us. Despite this obviousness, Hyrule and companions can still have some importance.

Isn't using the environment to Link's advantage already the main gimmick of BOTW/TOTK's combat?

@@gabrielmeyer5644Yeah, but that’s best demonstrated in pushing boulders onto enemies from a hill (at least that’s the example they used when BotW was coming out). They combined the physics engine with combat, but there aren’t too many opportunities to put it to good use.

i get what youre saying but i also think totk has some of the most advanced physics and techs in any game period, its way deeper than just swinging your sword and shooting arrows, but only if you want it to be. idk what its all called but you seen the crazy dudes shield bomb blast into backwards jump attack into shield surf with glide suit cancel fly across the earth shoot glitched 5 stack arrows with time bomb bullet time throw boomerang into homing circle and take a selfie while silver lynel gets obliterated

Then play Wind Waker dude

OOOH ZONAI PERIOD. That actually sounds really cool

Still voting for other lands. We know they exist, we've visited a couple in the 2D zeldas outright, and TotK throws a massive teaser in the other Zora domains too.

I wonder why Nintendo didn't add Time Travel in the first place? And no, the Tears are basically the same as BOTW Memories.

@@sinteleon yeah other lands there will be shrines again and dungeons that are all the same (activate x terminals) and we will wait 8 years this time plus the game will be 80 dollars anyways i don't think they could reuse the same map another time but it's nintendo we never know what they could pull off maybe they could add space this time around ? (which will probably be 3 percent of the game map and still be shown in every trailer).

Holodrum, Labrynna, Hytopia, Termina, Sea of the Ocean King, Land of the Lokomos, Lorule, Subrosia and the Sacred Realm. There are several other lands beyond Hyrule Kingdom so there's definetly a possibility for a sequel set in some other far away realm.

Id love it if there were more metroidvania qualities to the next legend of zelda game

I would argue that even the games beyond ALttP have metroidvania mechanics. But yes, this is literally all I want. Freedom is great but some parts need more constraint and focus.

I think it would be awesome to see a Zelda game in the style of something maybe like elden ring. A little less graphic and terrifying maybe. But another idea I’ve had for a while would actually be to see it in the style of a game like Hollow Knight. I know Zelda II already tried the whole 2d platforming thing but things are different now and honestly I don’t think it’d be a bad idea. I mean the hand drawn art style and all of the collectible story items and the the lore and the design and diversity I feel like all are aspects that the Zelda series already has but this time we’d see it from a different angle. Maybe not as a mainline game though. It would be cool to see as a smaller thing like the handheld titles or how they released links awakening (2019) between breath of the wild and tears of the kingdom

​@@been_rly_n2_paragliding_latelyI think the lightning temple was so impactful for me because of exactly this. it was its own confined experience seperate from the open world but used all of the mechanics the open world uses.

I would personally love another side-scrolling Zelda. I know most people are less than fond of Zelda II, but side-scrolling wasn't really the problem

Second this.

nice idea there will be the botw state the totk state and 100 years after totk state the botw state and totk state will be the same as totk and botw but in one game and the 100 years later state will be a destroyed hyrule that will be smaller and in which there are only 20 people still alive with only 10 shrines because hyrule is partially destroyed nintendo should hire you

Personally I think the next Zelda game should be a completely new universe because we’ve already played 2 games with this one and it’s getting old so it’s time to move on.

Hell yeah best thing ive heard all day

@@dpackerman4203 after 6 years new kids will be big enough to buy the games plus 4 new tiktok worthy abilities plus the fanboys everyone will praise the game even if it has 3000 koroks so they wont drop this formula dont think so

Could be an interesting way to incorporate a new villain again. Since the Ganon/dorf of that time is eradicated. Though just about every "Hyrule" game has had Ganon/dorf in it, and every game with the Master Sword had him too. I couldn't see this Link not using the reforged Master Sword after its importance in TotK

i think its better to move on, aonuma said tears of the kingdom said was a botw that was way too big and they decided to build from that, and he also said totk won't have a dlc since he considers game is complete and most ppl (including me) want to see another hyrule and new characters, i like the ones we have now, but you can't get much more from them, neither the characters or the world map and next gen nintendo console will be powerful according to leaks, so they could fully take advantage of it

Please don’t make link a magician 🤦🏽‍♂️ He supposed to fight with sword and shield and not with magic spells. I hope they don’t to shit like that.

@@Hermanos1995 at this rate he might have a ray gun in the next one so i kinda hope they do make him a magician :D

​@@Hermanos1995 Link has been shown to use magic tho, heck he's been doing it all the way back in Zelda 2 with the spells

⁠@@Hermanos1995explain the medallions in ALTTP and the literal magic spells you get given in OOT (Din’s fire, Nayru’s love, and Farore’s wind) if Link supposedly “doesn’t use magic”. What is a magic meter for if not spells?

@@Hermanos1995you really want them to be the same every time? Cmon have some imagination

The _older_ fans would for sure, and I'm very much one of those people who misses the old formula, but unfortunately the fact of the matter is that BotW and TotK have brought in a _lot_ of new fans who would likely view any regression from the newer games' freedom as a negative. The franchise has officially evolved for a new generation, and it seems like Nintendo have no intention of looking back... at least, not for the larger games. To me, the obvious fix seems to be to continue on their current trajectory with the big games (i.e. massive freedom, innovative mechanics, long dev cycles), but to also sling us some new 2D and/or top-down games in between with the classic, more linear gameplay. They would be substantially less financially risky to develop than a larger game with old mechanics, could be developed alongside the next "main" game by just using two teams with Aonuma overseeing both, and would ensure that all the fans are kept happy. If we can get our Mario Odysseys while still getting our Mario Wonders, the Zelda franchise can get the same treatment

Most of that is driven by nostalgia. Those games are still incredible, the formulas are outdated. If you were to open the game up more, you just end up back at the new games or the og one.

@@about_average8808 how are linear games outdated?

I'm gonna call nonsense on all that with the very simple rebuke that Skyward Sword HD again sold and reviewed exceptionally well. Which goes double given that game's design ethos, which is at the far end of the spectrum to BotW. The idea that the series was getting stale is an ahistorical retrospective that doesn't line up with contemporaneous sources🤷

Nintendo has confirmed they are not returning to the traditional style anytime soon

having transformation masks from majora's mask or something similar would be fun to use in open world, like zora swimming in water areas and goron rolling speeding across the map

I just want the next zelda game to be the scariest shit ever piss my pants levels of scary - dark souls-ish style scary but MORE scary

I take back what I say about dark souls

Space Ganon

Well, I mean, Koga is just sent to the surface after we beat him in TotK, so nothing wow here

it makes sense since totk was made because they had so many dlc ideas for botw

this is all i want , a remake or something similar to MM. with the graphics we have today i think it would look so amazing and im imagining the zora guy that was dying (mikau iirc) just standing up and rocking tf out to some sick tunes

shittiest idea ever

Ugh, no thanks! This is the issue; people are never happy and satisfied with a High standard 'status quo' we got in a game like Tears. Always seeking something totally new; a movie. Next, a comic game. Next: The Legend of Paper Zelda. Lol. 🤦‍♂🙄

I've met people who don't talk much. It's certainly possible to have Link either talk little or not at all.

@@netweed09Mario movie proved you can have a fun movie based on nostalgia

@@_Sloppyham Yes, sort of (I didn't find it that amazing but it was a bit of light fun.) But that's mainly because they did stay loyal and faithful to Nintendo's assets - not just add a whole bunch of 'Illumination' cringey stuff to it, or the dreaded Spongebob like droll vibe. But still, the movie was very much aimed at kids.

@@netweed09that’s true I don’t really see a Zelda movie being made since link doesn’t speak and I don’t want some random actor voicing link that doesn’t sound like him

Agreed. The only Zelda games I've ever played are BOTW and TOTK, but I'm already tired of the same set of four regions/allied nations (gorons, rito, zora, gerudo), and the formula of having a main sub-boss related to each of them. That can all easily be changed without sacrificing anything that makes Zelda great.

​@@andrewj22u should play tp and sw

OMG YESSSSSSSSSS

Respectfully, I really think using the same map a 3rd time would be a mistake.

This idea reminds me of Oracle of Seasons and Oracle of Ages! Almost like a mix between

if they gonna make a sequel for totk which seems unlikely they have to make big changes to the map, like actually massive changes I think they're just gonna start a new timeline with a new hyrule but keep the open world thing

i think they will change the whole thing to keep it fresh. Reused once is good enough .There is something that make familiar things (enemies, items, ...) if they are reused will make the game less interesting

​@@been_rly_n2_paragliding_lately ever played a yakuza game?

hopefully by 2026 the Switch won't be supported anymore

@@fyyfnyyn It probably will even if nintendo release a new console because there are 120m switch users and they wouldn't wanna ditch them

A great idea, would be to mix three Zeldas, the 16 bit in that there are mirrored evil/dark, and good/pure realms, then Windwaker on ocean with more islands and land sections to it. Then Sky areas too, that make up the rest of the possible map. Both worlds have all three elements. You'll need 3 inventory pages to do everything possible in all areas.

Lmao lower your standards do you even realize what you're asking for ? 😂😂

Yea I try to figure out if it’s just a natural thing due to us getting older & having so many years of Zelda games in our past that now it doesn’t feel the same. Or is it bc the games are just so different now

Why would it be though? Zelda isnt meant for space

@@omegalilbchass8270Zelda wasn’t a building simulator or robots but now it is

@@Spastic110what does that have to do with what i said

​@@omegalilbchass8270if someone can make it work, it's Nintendo

What if the Zonai species were not actually native to Hyrule but "discovered" it in search of their vital resource the zonaite? Because for some reason it seems they were not capable of fully living life on the surface so they had to build most their housing structures in the depths or in the skies. Only things on the surface you see about them are statues really. Actually even in the depths you only see the robots "constructs". You don't see any evidence of the goat people being down there in their real form in any memories, are there any?

Yeah lets not involve guns in Zelda. It doesn't need to be thematically shit. It can stay where it is.

No, Tears of the Kingdom already was heavy on advanced technology and crossed the line in some areas. The Legend of Zelda is supposed to be a "medieval tale of sword and sorcery" according to Miyamoto. Rather than throw out the genre and make the series unrecognizable with a modern day Hyrule, why not explore more lands outside of Hyrule on the planet instead?

I’m actually with you here. Having some proper technological development would be a nice change of pace rather than having all the tech be ancient and unusable by anyone other than Link.

That's a neat idea.

@@aratherbritishdinosaur Why does the series *need* to change its identity that radically to the point of being unrecognizable? The tech is kept ancient to ensure it doesn't overshadow the medieval castles, swords, and knights that make the series what it is. Should Metroid suddenly become set in the stone age where Samus wears a bearpelt and uses a throwing spear, because "change for the sake of change"?

@@christheclamper6614 i guess but zelda is better

yeah finally a normal person that wants an actual zelda game unfortunately they found a nice way to farm botw's engine so it's unlikely especially because they are targeting players that don't have a lot of attention span so shrines will definitely come back somehow (probably the sky islands will fall and then you or underwater or something).

Eventually people will get sick of the current formula. Eventually the cries for traditional Zelda will grow loud enough for Nintendo to listen. Eventually traditional Zelda will be back.

No

I'd love to play a third entry in this world before we move on, but one set outside of Hyrule. You can see land beyond the borders on the map and edges of the kingdom. I'd love to step onto it. I'd love there to be some larger, world-spanning third act to the plot that reveals an even larger threat, not just to Hyrule, but to the entire world--and one that would see Link traveling back and forth in various ways to different kingdoms, in various states of having already fallen or being on the precipice of falling, to their own versions of Ganon (either different threats or literally multiple different forms and iterations of Demise as 'Ganon' in each kingdom with different appearances and powers). Maybe Hyrule was the only ones to fight him off, which is why Link has to be the one to go out there and help others to do the same. Who knows, but I would LOVE to get something like that and THEN wrap it up with a classic trilogy bow and move on to a new time, place, and format afterwards.

@@NekoMouserI feel like they should stray away from Ganon and make a completely original villain for the next game. With both gloom and malice, we’ve seen a lot of the typical LOZ villain in the reason iterations. I think we need something new.

You’re not entirely wrong about the cell-shaded style. I think it looks too “bright” and I can’t see any textures. Link looks fine, but all the other characters are ugly (especially NPCs, but that’s getting super picky so I don’t really care too much about them). They definitely should change the graphics a little just so it doesn’t feel like Botw again (an also so it actually looks good).

@@NekoMouser Might as well just make the entire planet, hyrule, termina, whatever other continents are there. Let us explore the entire thing.

Absolutely agree. I think people get caught up with the device building and expanded map and they look at TOTK as an absolute upgrade that makes BOTW obsolete. I personally feel like 90% of TOTK’s charm originated in BOTW

if you think totk is a good game then you didn't play a lot of video games that's for sure (and probably never touched botw) haven't you got bored of the game already?! same dungeons 150 shrines ouch which get boring real fast the building mechanics were fun at first but when you realize that when you die or walk away your creation disappears AND you need resources to make them you feel depressed same thing for fuse its fun at first then gets boring especially because its tedious you have to drop an item each time to fuse it plus there are fewer useful possibilities than i initially imagined side quests are chores sky islands are 2 percent of the map (less or more) and are all either empty or the same the depths are literally the overworld map copy pasted and get tedious and less scary after 2 hours (less or more) there are still a lot of complaints about how this game is not even close to good let alone perfect i give it 2/10 especially because its just more botw.

@@monkeygameplay5455 nah it’s still a good game. How tf can you play this game and think it’s a 2/10? Cmoooonnn

I loved Totk and played it for over 200 hours, but my fear is 3 years from now I’ll not like it anymore because it’s so boring after the first time. That’s exactly what happened with Botw and this game ran the same blueprint as Botw, so I could see myself never playing Totk again once I finally get bored of it within the next year or so. That’s why I feel like a Zelda game (or any game rather) needs good storytelling and iconic moments that help motivate you to go back and play it again years down the road. Botw had none of that, and Totk has very little of that.

@@monkeygameplay54552/10? Huh. Aight. I’ll give it an 8/10.
