    I loved the key puzzles too. It took me until the last one to realize you can let go of it and reposition your hand. Before that I was just contorting my wrist into all kinds of impossible shapes to get that key in.

    It's fascinating playing this for the first time *after* completing Breath of the Wild because it becomes clear that Skyward Sword inspired every major thing people love about Breath of the Wild. So many things this game introduced in small amounts were simply expanded or evolved in Breath of the Wild like the stamina meter, timed potions, collecting creatures to modify potions, durability mechanics, gliding around, etc. Some of those might be in older titles but this one has all of that stuff in one game and it feels like BotW was just an effort to directly expand on all of those things.

    • @okagron
      @okagron 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Except Breath of the Wild entire design direction was to be as different as Skyward as possible. No handholding, far more emphasis on exploration, definitely less emphasis on sprawling dungeons, much less railroading and many other things. By Skyward Sword (and you can argue Twilight Princess) the 3D formula was stale and had been ran into the ground. BoTW is the antithesis of Skyward Sword.
      Taking a couple of mechanics from Skyward Sword doesn't mean BoTW was trying to expand on the direction Skyward Sword was going for, it was going in a completely different direction. It just took a couple of mechanics from Skyward Sword because the devs thought it would improve the direction they were going for with BoTW.

And while ALTTP and, by extention, ALBW, is a great game in its own right, it doesn't hold a candle to the modern home console line up.

It completely abandons the mold that every game since even ALTTP has been refining.

      In fact I'll bet real money that all Nintendo did was download the mods, added them to base by default, and called it a day. There's no good reason why the HD version should cost $60 at release.

      @msyr7703 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@TheAlibabatree I definitely agree that it's one of the most flawed zelda games. Essentially, it all boils down to the game being too repetitive, and having one zone too little. I don't think I've met anyone who likes fighting the Imprisoned or enjoys sky keep, even if SS is their favorite.
      Personally though, I'd also argue that TP and BOTW have some huge flaws that negatively impact the entire games. BOTW is a 10/10 game, until you've played 20 hours and done a divine beast. At that point there aren't any surprises; you've basically seen all enemies, collectibles/items, dungeons and bosses, which is pretty disappointing for a zelda game. The dlc also did the bare minimum.
      TP has to have the worst overworld. It's bland, empty and huge. The collectibles and side quests suck, especially the poes. The horse (and to some extent wolf) controls like shit, and the entire game feels pretty stiff and lifeless in its controls and animations. It also has my least favorite story of all zelda games, until arbiters grounds.
