- Hello everyone!
In the first non-Xenoblade video on this channel in what feels like forever, i'm going to attempt to explain exactly why Breath of the Wild's upcoming sequel has me so concerned. This is sure to be a controversial one, and I'd love to hear what you guys have to say about it in the comments down below!

I’ve played about 300 hours of BOTW. I beat the story twice and then on master mode. I completed every shrine and got all the armor upgraded, I did all the dlc. Basically I did prettty much everything minus the korok seeds. I also haven’t played it since 2019 and I think going back to the same map with some new elements will lead to some rediscovery and new discoveries as well
I done all of that to just with 550 hours
I've done all of that in 185 hours
Hey man I think it’s 100% reasonable to be worried about botw2
I’m also concerned about the same map and how it’s gonna feel fresh again
But honestly? Zelda team earned my trust with botw and I’m 100% sure they’ll make hyrule fun to rediscover
I doubt the same team who made botw, one of the greatest open world ever imo,would just make a lazy cashgrab sequel especially after 5 years of development
It’s no Ubisoft
I bet they're gonna expand outside of Hyrule, as well as Underground and Underwater
@@stpidstuff yes, going underwater would be cool 😎
im sure aonuma isnt clueless about this things and theres going to be a lot more going on to make this world feel different...i bet there are going to be many more enemies, cities and npcs with more complex storylines, sky areas, underground, other abillities, and perhaps even some parallel dimension, im not worried at all, im just curious as to how they are going to accomplish this
Lets hope you're right
If they do a A Link Between Worlds type thing it COULD work depends on other factors as well. ALBW was well done. We'll see. I'm definitely not a fan of reusing the same map though might be a deal breaker for me. Exploring is a major part of the fun.
@@cjg8763 i think there could be more land beyond the ocean and they could create a situation where all of hyrule is going out exploring the new land, like when america was discovered, it would be fun i think
finally underwater too i bet!
@@pixelee3890 yeah, agreed...if u think about it, if the underwater enviroments are too big, you might need some form of underwater ride like the sand seals in the desert
how people can worry that Nintendo will simply copy+paste the EXACT same map as the first game with no changes based on........like 11 seconds of footage? just boggles my mind.
lets give it a chance eh. They have taken 5+ years to make this i am positive it wont disappoint.
What is ur opinion of it now that it is out?
@@sharkgam3z592 love it.
Good points! What I’ve been thinking is that the floating islands haven’t been there already, but are pieces of hyrule that have been lifted from ground level therefore severely changing the landscape and exposing all the new dungeons and caves.
3:04 I feel EXACTLY the same
I won't be motivated to explore and that was 90% of the fun for me
Thank you! Great to know I'm not alone haha
@@linkalot7415 you're not. I won't be triggered to go explore when the world is the same
Yep. Exploring the overworld is a huge part of the fun for me in any Zelda game (one of the many reasons I didn't care much for Skyward Sword) and if they reuse the same map that just won't be nearly as exciting. Likely to be a deal breaker for me.
@@cjg8763 yeah ikr. It's my biggest fear that I won't be able to explore a new worldmap. Even if there are a lot of new areas it would never excite me like the very first time you see the world. I remember I could NEVER finish a quest in 1 time because I always wandered of because something else had catched my eye and made me forget about the quest I was on 🤣🤣🤣
With the expansion of vertical exploration in the sky with the sky islands, let’s hope there is also an expansive underground exploration like your previous video proposed 🤞🏽
Same! But I also hope the base map of hyrule itself is altered
This is honestly my biggest hope at the moment. I want a really really huge mysterious underground cave system that oozes with creativity, danger and excitement. New creepy enemies, different temples and lakes in overgrown caves where you will discover interesting NPCs that offer you new awesome quests and storys, that's what I want to explore. Or at least something like that. My biggest dream is a big underground settlement of a completely new unknown tribe...
@@maxrn3923 same bro. I think they should have had hyrule from the first game not accessible and the entire map is set in some mysterious, bioluminescent underground kingdom with tons of hidden caves and shit.
I am definitely worried about that too. That was my first question after 2019's reveal trailer, are they gonna create a new map or not? They have to make the world we already explored for hundreds of hours interesting and fresh but I can't imagine how they will do it... I'm scared that it will feel like a DLC! After this long development time I expect a massive (!) amount of content (new amazing Quests, a lot of new characters, dungeons(?), huge new areas, towns, weapons etc.) and i can only hope they haven't even touched the surface with the recent trailers. I guess the E3 direct will tell.
But i think we have to trust the Zelda-Team on this one...
you had valid concerns... but then you really question if it's "laziness"? cmon dude. yea, they are just sitting around looking forward to shipping a game where they slacked and got away with it! just collecting that paycheck
It wouldn’t make sense story wise if hyrule looked completely different
Not necessarily
I think the shot of the trailer where you said it looks identical aside new enemy camps is understandable…if not a bit of a stretch?
A lot of gameplay might be different,combat might feel much improved and better,many caves may be hidden,there may be a lot of new dangerous enemies ,new sidequest and new stuff to do within hyrule and the sky area might feel bigger than just “an addition”
So although yeah it could feel like DLC we can only wait once they show more cause they showed a minimum amount of stuff soo far
We really barely know anything about botw2 since we only got 2 teasers rather than full blown trailers
If rediscovering the same hyrule is an issue you probably will be disappointed,but I think a lot of people who thought botw was empty might find an hyrule finally worth exploring if there’s soo much more to do and find
And to me I think I’d rather have an old hyrule with 10/10 gameplay,story than another new world that’s kind of empty.
Botw is amazing but sidequest,story,dungeons,enemy variety were weak aspects of the game.
The shrines and beast were cool but they were a repetitive,unsurprising thing to find soo often and aside those there wasn’t much
Botw was fun cause gameplay is soo fun yet simple making exploration fun despite the repetitive things to find.
I can’t defend not having a new world map,I would love that,but even if we don’t I think they’ll make up for it on other aspects of the game
Similar to how majora’s mask was a small unambitious world on paper,but full of memorable quest and things to do
I thought that I was the only one concerned about the sequel. Exploration was one of the most amazing things about Breath of the Wild. You were truly free to explore and go where you desire. The map was extensive and offered a lot. There was always something you could discover.
The game truly nailed the exploration. Now, that we might be going back to the same map, the exploration, which is one the best things about BotW, might feel lackluster. I hope the Zelda team is capable of making us feel we are truly playing the Sequel of the Game, not just a DLC.
Overall, you have made good arguments in your video and I agree with your points. I adored BotW, and I am still very excited for the Sequel. I just hope our concerns are eliminated at E3 when Nintendo showcases more about the Sequel.
Your critique is more fair, reasonable, and concise, I find nothing toxic or ungrateful here, and anyone taking this as an attack are metaphorical children that still have growing up to do.
great video. Pretty interesting they are reusing the original areas making it feel like a dlc instead of a new game.
I think they are focusing more on story
I think it's the opposite...They're taking their sweet time making the original areas NOT feel like DLC
I agree with you completely, and I’ve played BoTW or than most. I worst thing about it is the severe lack of information we have about the game after almost 3 years. I’m fond of the idea of reintroducing “Lesser Hyrule” from Zelda one as way of expanding the map while still being in the same world. I’ve done some boundary breaking and they have more than enough unused geography to work with.
HFW is a small map btw.
i agree. especially since this was originally planned out to be a DLC, I feel like its gonna be more of an addition to botw than a whole new game, which is kinda sad.
I disagree. DLC doesn’t take years. Even Majora was a year turnaround, and they rushed like mad to get it made. It’s going to be over 5 years for release, and even taking into account for advancing expectations for graphics and the complexity of programming for modern consoles compared to the SNES/N64 era, this shows far more is happening than just a rehash.
@@WintrBorn well i sure hope you're correct on this, as like you said it has been going on for a few years now, and to be fair we still don't have enough footage or info on the game to figure out what there to come.
dude, it's Nintendo and it's their biggest game ... if anything, they'll use it to flex how they can pull of an entirely different experience using the same map while the rest of the industry continues to produce the same experience by rehashing the same systems onto different maps
I definitely understand where you're coming from, although i don't really agree with you. I'm a bit more optimistic in that regard
Obviously, right now, we can only speculate on how they are going to make the old map as exciting as it was in the first game. But i think we have to remember that this game is made by the same people who made BOTW. Yes, this sequel started as ideas for DLC, which is probably one of the reasons they're using the same map, but i also believe that they wouldn't reuse this map if they didn't know how to make it fun to explore. They know how to make a game world fun to explore, we can clearly see this in BOTW. Of course it's easier to reuse a map, but you said yourself that the map of BOTW probably didn't take a lot of time to make. So what's stopping them from making a new map? I feel like the Zelda team would make a new map if they felt the game would be too boring with the old map.
This is just pure speculation and i'm probably wrong, but please hear me out. I think the reason they are making a game instead of DLC isn't only that there were just too many ideas to fit in a DLC(although that is certainly part of it), because, like you explained, many other games have had massive DLC. I think that the Zelda team had a lot of ideas that required more drastic changes to the already existing world. The two DLC packs that did come out for BOTW added new content, but the map itself was left almost completely untouched. I imagine that the ideas they had for a third pack, which were later turned into the sequel, involved changing the landscape of Hyrule so drastically that they felt it would be better to make an entirely new game, so that the original map of BOTW could remain the same as it was before. I believe that Hyrule Castle floating into the sky is just the beginning of the changes they are making to the map. It's technically still the same map, but i feel that, maybe over the course of the game, certain landmarks are going to start floating, others maybe fall down, creating entrances to caves and other cool stuff and through this changing the landscape a lot, with some things still remaining intact. This would, at least for me, make the world enjoyable to explore again. This might be the reason the game is taking longer than one would think, with a lot of the groundwork already being there.
All of this might be a little too optimistic and i'm most likely wrong, but this is my prediction of how they are going to reuse the same map. We won't know until we get more information, but right now, i'm not really worried about BOTW 2.
Sorry for the delay, yall, the real reason it's taking so long is because me and Aonuma-san smoked some extra thicccc blunts and decided to develop BoTW baked. We nick-named the sesh, "Baked of the Wild". Long story short, Mr. Aonuma-san got so high he deleted a whole dungeon and the Zora Water Slide we had planned and the back-up files were corrupted.
Bastard.
Anyway, we gotta redo some dungeons and add the secret strip club on 420 ave. But we should be done by April 20th of next year. 😊
And here we are a year later boy your video and a lot comments on here aged like fine wine 🍷 you were right in ways to be worried
I completely disagree 100% There is no way that this new game won't be Brand New. I doubted Nintendo before and came up short too many times. Nope.
This game will be Legendary!
Sincerely,
Well yeah, I understand. Although the map obviously won't be the exact same, the impact of discovering the map like the first game won't be as impactful. Although they tweak a few spots here and there and add some islands in the sky, I don't think it will be breathtaking like the first one, and I'm already ready for that. This will be the SEQUEL to Botw, it will keep BotW's DNA, meaning gameplay mechanics, characters, artstyle, etc... But a brand new map? From what they've shown us in the trailers it seems like we're for sure not getting a new map, but we'll for sure get MAJOR adjustments to it, because well, it's a new game lol
o
2:15 the issue with this is that people would want to see what did change and how did it change post-bow.
Like look at gold and silver. Things happened in Kanto that made new things there (for example the eruption of cinnabar) and seeing what happened to other characters made even areas we had been before
bruh theres been changes to hyrule like the deku tree its gone and other changes that we can see in the trailer like the volcano it isnt active in the trailer so there might be a dungeon in the volcano
I don’t think comparing Breath of the Wild’s sequel to Horizon Forbidden West is as accurate as comparing BotW’s sequel to Elden Ring. Dark Souls 3 was released in early 2016, and had DLC for it which came out up to a year after its initial release (similar to BotW). Both are developed by Japanese AAA game companies, and both were announced in 2019 before a long radio silence.
And while BotW’s sequel is apparently going to have “the same Hyrule” as we had in BotW, Elden Ring also reused a lot of the animation and model assets from previous titles, with enough changes to make them feel distinct. I think BotW’s sequel will likely do something similar; reuse a lot of the same assets, while still changing up the map enough to give fans that feeling of discovery that they crave, after having played the game’s predecessor. I don’t think the points you made in this video really support your reasoning to be concerned about the map for BotW2, but I also don’t think it’s entirely wrong to be worried. Personally, I just have more faith in the devs and their reasons for making the choices they have.
Fair enough. Thanks for watching 👍 I can understand your point completely
Honestly they shouldn’t have said anything so that fans couldn’t gripe beforehand. The Zelda team believe in exploration more than even the fans have. They’ve been anything but lazy and without thought. The original game developed starting 2013 and released 2017. If they wanted to reuse the same map and engine I’m pretty sure it would’ve finished much sooner but instead it’s taking longer than the original. Yes there’s the pandemic but I also sense that there’s more in store than we realize.
"But one of them is clearly put much work and effort"... sorry but I didn't know the Sequel to BotW already released.
We know how Nintendo work, they are hiding so much content that they are going to reveal with their first big trailer that everyone will be surprised.
No changes you say? What about the Great Deku Tree seeming to have gone missing? What about the castle literally floating into the air? What about the fact that all the NPCs would have started moving to areas that were previously infested by monsters/malice? I doubt there are that many changes to terrain per se, but I'm sure the locations of everything you would have wanted to discover will have moved.
I see where the concern is coming from, but I think the game will version mildly disappointing at worst
You make some good points. I can see how using the the exact same map in a game focused on exploration could be bad. However there might be enough changes to the map to make it fun to explore yet have a sense of familiarity. Also, as far as we know, BotW2 might follow the traditional Zelda formula. I hope that the wait is worth it because part of me feels like Nintendo finished the game already and are just holding out on us.
They aren't holding out. Nintendo has so many ideas that they have difficulty finishing a game because they are always thinking of ways to improve it. They will work on it until the last minute.
No hate to you just found your channel. But your argument for this has already been talked about over a year ago. Your concerns are trivial and old news. We have little news at all to go off of. I doubt they’d wanna show us anything new. So just hold off for a bit, idk why but you speaking really annoyed me and I can’t quite figure out why.
I completely agree. I think, if they don't significantly alter the original map, many will feel that tedium and end up agreeing with you as well.
You brought a point almost nobody has approached and you're totally right, but im not that worried, I'm sure the zelda team is pretty aware of this and they know they have to do something about hyrule land besides the sky and possible underwater gameplay. So after seeing this video I'm left with the question how they would do it?
Let's just wait and let us be surprised
Pd: maybe the shots of hyrule field in the trailer are a bait, kinda like what the marvel trailers do.
I hope you're right about that last point
Speaking of going somewhere new, The Wind Waker's sequel, Phantom Hourglass, takes place in a new land after Hyrule is abandoned. They could have just as easily set the game in Hyrule after the trees connected the land and created new islands, or centuries later when the oceans had dried up, or in another part of the ocean with new islands to explore. The possibilities are endless and there is no excuse to reuse the entirely of the original map, unchanged. Let's hope that's not what we are getting. One thing Nintendo is great at is surprising me with ideas I hadn't considered. Here's hoping that continues.
You didn't anger or annoy me. Your concerns are completely relatable and valid. Have a sub!
Thanks so much!
Good video and i do agree with the lost in motivation to explore ground hyrule being an issue. I just hope they add more bosses and for the love of god not add 900 more koroks.
Thank you! Also same haha... The korok seeds were a pain for sure, especially with the reward you got for getting them all 😆
Yes these are all reasonable concerns, nice vid! I hope the next game will be better :)
This was a good video man. You should make a video on your final thoughts after release.
That horizon zero dawn point was a very good one, because it honestly doesn’t even feel like we got a new Zelda game and it’s been 6 years and you look at horizon and they get an entirely new game with a new world, which is what we rightfully expected. They didn’t even bother to make a big sky island or something.
Thanks man. Personally I was incredibly disappointed by totk and I don’t want to make a video because I know I’ll be eaten alive lol
@@linkalot7415 don’t fear the crowd. Your real fear in life should allowing the crowd to control you.
You’re a good talker, you should do it bro
Thanks man, idk maybe. The thing is I haven’t even played the game myself so I don’t think I have the right to discuss it. I watched hours of footage and came to it the conclusion I didn’t want to pay money for it
This video brought this problem to my attention, im now thinking that it might be alot more dull bc I'll already know where everything is besides new areas. Hopefully they find something to fix the issue.
There will be areas maybe even dungeons to explore in replacements of the islands. I hope at least. I'm excited to revisit this map again. I played the hell out of this game from age 15 to 18 done everything it had to offer. I'm a little worried too but then I remember that it's gonna be alright. I only really care about what the lore and story is gonna be. Im gonna be too busy with elden ring for the rest of my life so I'll enjoy the next BOTW from a far lmao.
WOW. People aren’t allowed to have opinions or concerns anymore? Y’all need to rethink your definition of toxic if you can’t handle watching a video someone shares about their thoughts.
I appreciate the video and the viewpoint. I had wondered about the map. I think all we can do is trust in the devs and hope they know what made the game so delightful to play the first time around.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts in this video.
At the very least on top of the islands and or dungeons I hope we get some expansion on the villages and even rebuilt settlements. Like some sign that the world has progressed and recovered a bit since the previous game. The old world as a base is fine but it needs to feel affected by the story events and also improve on the original’s weaknesses. Mainly a lack of unique regional enemies that aren’t just elemental reskins, unique dungeons as well as fleshing out areas that previously weren’t as well defined.
Pure truth. Horizon comparison is on point.
Thanks man
That trailer was made a while ago, I bet tons have changed and will continue to change, Have hope
we all have our concerns on the freshness ofthe map,, but wai for the gae to actually come out, as we might even see underground exploration while thy drastically change the overworlds areas
I agree with alot of what you said tbh, Zelda is my favorite IP & when I saw that they'll use the same Hyrule I was *royally* disappointed lol, ok the skies are new which is cool but the huge map of Hyrule looks almost the same! The latest delay video gave me hope when Aunoma said there will be more to explore beyond what we know so far (skies + Hyrule), so that's pretty cool.
The only thing that makes me optimistic about them reusing Hyrule map is the talent of the team, there's no way the same team that made BotW will make a half assed sequel after 6 years of development (new release date is spring 2023), yet I'm still worried a bit & wish they never decided to use the same old Hyrule since by now people have explored the hell out of it.. anyway only time will tell but I hope we get an extensive look at BotW2 at E3 like we did in 2016 about BotW 🙏
I don’t know. Is every game that takes place in NewYork the same?
I am partially concerned about this, but we’ve seen barely any of the land
There's another video I saw about the potential theme, or one of the themes, of BoTW2 being rebuilding, reincarnation. You know what I want to see is settlements being rebuilt, cultures coming together like in Tarrey Town, people getting the world back on its feet after ages of chaos .It's why the Tarrey Town quest is so satisfying: there's that feeling of renewed hope.
Totally agree!
At least with the same map, I am hoping, though unlikely, to get to keep links house.
I completely see what you mean and agree. I don't really mind it because we've had it before and I heavily enjoyed them. The sequels to Pokémon Black and White and Pokémon Sun and Moon took place in the same region with extra features and areas. I ended up like the sequels better than the originals in both cases.
That's kind of the reason I like them so much because they were so similar to the original. It just made me like the sequels even more.
I understand your critique but as I am with video games: if the game is enjoyable then I don't really care how it turns out. Hell, Xenoblade 2 is my favorite game of all time which is controversial in and of itself. I'm not really one to complain about anything in game, which could be dangerous but hey not everyone has the same opinion.
We haven't seen anything, don't need to worry.
I got hopes that there will be a lot more civilizations now with Ganon having been gone. New dungeons hidden in the old landscapes and so on
I agree very much. They raised parts of Hyrule to the sky and gave us undergrounds to explore to make it different, which is not a bad idea. I would’ve gone further and did a timeskip of sorts. Ganondorf returns 10 years after the defeat of Clamity Ganon. This way you can somewhat change the surface too, have new villages..locations…etc.
Good to know I'm not alone ☺️
This is supposed to be a sequel to BOTW so it makes sense it would have the same map. We know there are going to be floating islands, hopefully underwater exploration will be included aswell.
Don't worry it'll be fine :)
Sensible worry, I think this too
@2:47
From what I heard, it *was* going to be a DLC initially, but they had so many ideas to play with that they decided to just make it a new game.
I completely agree that reusing and identical map would be a mistake, but I really don't think they should leave the botw map behind for the sequel. Instead I think it'd be cool for it to be the same one, but a few years in the future.
what if they're using the same map, adding the floatings world, and the new underworld BUT INSTEAD of assuming that the sequel will look the same in the end is wrong in my opinion. I think the teasers we've seen are picked out from earlier development and I'm actually hoping they're kind of re-vamping the whole overall aesthetic. Same asses yes, but new textures, shaders, enhanced physics. this could be the Hyrule we know and love but I feel like the amount of time taken for this new game is being put into something we haven't thought of yet.
For me personally I put a lot of time into the game about 2 months worth pretty much everyday on launch and once finished I haven’t touched the game since and that was over 5 years ago So for me I’m more than happy to jump back in same map or not
Well you brought up a good point yeah re using the same map,but yeah it would be like a dlc.
My point still stands more so than ever today
First off, I agree with you. If we are just reusing the same map with almost no changes, and then having new areas added, then it is just a massive expansion being called a sequel. And, in face, Nintendo said this began as DLC, but ended up being too big to be DLC, so they decided to make it a full on sequel. You are right that if the world has barely changed, there won't be the same sense of discovery and desire to explore.
That said, I am not worried that much because I trust Nintendo. I know they are aware that just adding some new stuff to BOTW isn't enough. I think they are making some changes to the overworld, but they hadn't implemented those changes enough at the time of the trailer reveal to show them off, or they want to keep them as surprises. I think they are doing this:
1. Small (and some big) changes to the overworld, such as new structures, new entrances to caves and the underworld, and new ways to interact with the world, such as using new abilities and swimming under water.
2. Islands in the sky, caverns and dungeons underground, and new islands and areas around the original map.
3. New underground towns (or a large underground city)
4. Remixed enemy types and new enemy types on the surface. New enemies underground, and new shrines/puzzles/temples in the sky.
5. New mounts and means of traversing the world.
Hopefully Nintendo is aware of our concerns and is doing everything to make sure our fears aren't realized.
I hope you're right! No matter what, I'm excited to see more of the game. Hopefully my worries were wrong!
This was put up before the announcement that the game has been delayed to spring 2023 , in the video Eiji Aonuma stated "that the sequel will take place just on the ground as in previous game, but also in the skies above. However, the expanded world goes beyond that. " So I think the game map will be much bigger than botw. We just haven't seen it yet.
I,m thinking they are taking the full potential of switch hardware and that's why is taking a longer time. Remember Breath the wild was a Wii U hardware that got imported to the switch.
You compared Horizon zero Dawn and Zelda Botw both came out in 2017, Apple and Oranges. Horizon zero dawn is a good game but Zelda Botw is a great game that's why it was the Game of the year in 2017 , instead of Horizons zero dawn.
Horizon forbidden west is a good game but what happen after ? It went to obscurity after Elden Ring came out. So once again Nintendo want to make a Great game instead of good game ,so people can play it for another 5 years.
Nintendo know what they're doing. They been in the business for over 130 years. If you don't believe me, look it up.
I agree a bit but it's probably still gonna be fun
It's hard to say what they're doing with the sequel as they refuse to show anything. I get your fear however, as I've personally put over 600 hours into BOTW, and can confidently say that re-exploring the same world would be pretty boring. I'm glad they're adding new content and areas, but if the main world is the same it won't really matter much.
Plus at this point there's really no excuse left for using the same world, the sequel has had more development time than the original, there's no reason they couldn't have developed a whole new world and then some by now.
Completely agree bro 👍
A small price for salvation
After playing Elden Ring in the past few weeks, I should be concern about this game, and I want to hear every concerns that the Zelda community has for the Sequel to Breath of the Wild.
I'm definitely worried about that too. Only remedy for me, dungeons hidden all over, and massive. And not just 4 like in MM. Add just some sky islands and some new shrines is unacceptable for me, at least while taking this long.
And Horizon nailed it!
Completely agree! Glad others feel the same.
I Think What will Make BOTW2 Most Interesting is Seeing What Has Changed in a World I Know Well! Finding those Changes and New Things in a World I Recognize is Where I Think the Fun will Be for Me! And You Know Nintendo is Going to Put As Much New Content as They Can in this World They Know We Already Know! And Just to Add Something Else, the Content We've Seen So Far from the Teasers Have Been from Unfinished Content! So You Know the Final Product will Be A Lot Different and Have A Lot More to it! Just Bear That in Mind!👍❤
I’m concerned that with so much reliance on Sky Temples, this game will simply be:
The Legend of Zelda: BOTW2: Revali’s Gale
Didn’t the devs say that the whole reason that there’s even going to be a whole BotW 2 because they had too many ideas for dlc to begin with? Honestly if it comes off as dlc why would that even be a problem? 🤔
I Agree with this video 100%
The game’s second trailer wowed me at points , but seeing the orginal landscapes was incredibly depressing. Never in a console 3D Zelda game before have we had to run around an identical world .
How the hell did the trailer depress you. It literally gave me goose bumps 🤣
@@giser6148 just the scene of the original , unchanged hyrule landscape . It’s the law of didminished returns playing in the same game level 6 years later . A sequel should give us a new level entirely , not an expansion of the first game . That’s just dlc .
@@hunterbrumfield9527 Maybe it’s to bait the fans that they won’t add anything into hyrule’s landscape with that 11 second footage of the hyrule in the trailer. Let’s wait and see what they might really have in an official trailer and maybe we can decide wether or not it was a disappointment.
@@PinatB hope you're right
If there is a time travel element, it might be the same hyrule, but everything will be different. Like Link to the Past.
I fucking discovered a new area in the map!
Sky and Underground exploration 😎😎😎🙏🙏🙏
The gaming industry in general has been heavily shifting to making games that require minimal development for maximum profit. So it wouldn’t be shocking.
Nintendo isn't really a AAA producer they're more like high end AA.
I’m concerned about the voice quality of your videos
Haha fair enough
im concorned too
well all of the mainline yakuza games use the same map + some additions and they're not the same game, so yeah, i don't mind seeing the same hyrule again.
Links awakening didn't take place in Hyrule either and was a masterpiece imo
I’m kind of sad we arnt getting a completely new Zelda and new timeline/world but it’s cool Il take botw2
i almost give up..... there have been times that i thought the game wasnt real......... now ive given up on waiting for news, i half expect it to be pushed back again... potentially even next console pushed.... oh well
The thing I can’t help but think/feel is that we’re going to have to wait another 5-7 years after Botw 2 for the “proper” next new Zelda game
This always has been the case 🙄 since the first Zelda game. You just have to wait like everyone else in the world.
Imagine exploring Atlantis pre and post flooding. Thats the difference.
Skyward Sword was not he previous game in the series, A Link Between Worlds came out between SS and BotW.
Skyward sword was the previous main title game
@@Thesamurai1999 I'd say ALBW was a main title.
@@AidanRatnage I could be wrong, but I'm fairly certain that only the console titles are considered main titles.
@@AidanRatnage is more like a smaller title or the equivalent of phantom hourglass and spirit tracks but on the 3DS
@@Thesamurai1999 by whom, you?
I found this video really negative and you do have your points but it seems like your ignoring the fact that more trailers cause come out and you could see the map and the other different things they will add so I think it would be better to talk about all this stuff after the full trailer comes out
This isn't an unpopular opinion, and I completely agree, I'm also concerned of how they will adress the issues of poor enemy/dungeon/boss variety and the durability system, which is not the best mechanic in the og game, let's be real...
Tbh I don't think it'll be nearly as good as let's say Elden Ring.
Thanks
@@linkalot7415 uhhhhh dude you don't know if forbidden west has more work and effort put into it yet botw 2 isn't even out yet all we have are teasers that we can just barely make out what the game MIGHT be like also if you've followed zelda at all you should know that the devs take this game very seriously and just about every zelda game is amazing in its own right so I'm not worried because I've never bought a main line nintendo game that's disappointed me
@@sword_racer185 Talking about more effort and comparing it to a game that's not even out yet is ridiculous. "More effort" is also one of those arguments that basically invalidate all your other points, just like "lazy devs".
You have nothing to worry about, Botw2 will knock it out of the park. The only people this might bother is people with 1000 hours of gameplay on BOTW.
I agree with every statement you’ve made. What have they been doing all this time? To tackle these issues I think the only plausible way of keeping the original map still playable is one of two ways. One, you can go back in time to before it got destroyed and play on that map or two, the same thing applies however you can switch between times on the fly to bring items or objects forward and backward through time to help progress the story or complete puzzles.
I really don't think this'll be a big problem...
teue
Youre actually completely right. They should just charge like 30 or 40 bucks and make it a big DLC. A new game with the same map plus some add ons is crazy
Thank you
As someone who plays genshin impact, a game that consistently updates every 6 weeks and adds new areas all the time to the pre-existing map, this sounds absurd. It's practically what a game update would be in genshin but you have to pay for it all over again? Nintendo switch games are already overpriced af as it is, if a few islands and a different storyline is all they're gonna add I truly don't see a reason to waste so much money on it. What a shame if this is true
Isn't true because it hasn't came out yet.
@@tiffanyt9329 I'm saying if it is. Still holding out hope ✊
I think is more Ocarina of time and Twilight Princess situation than a geshin impact instead of added things on the fly . Same map but different story , different things to do in the map world. Botw1 vs Botw2.
You had my attention until you said "Horizon Zero Dawn and Horizon Forbidden West" ... games that are full of bugs everywhere.
Are they? I mean I played zero dawn and didn't notice any game breaking bugs, all I remember was seeing one NPC floating one time lol
Fare point
I understand your concern but the approach you’re taking feels like a self-fulfilling prophecy. Like you’re saying you expect a core part of this game to essentially ruin the game for you. If you turn out to be right will you approach it with an open mind, or will you have already made your mind up and not give it a fair chance?
It’s Nintendo, they blow us away with innovative gameplay and charming characters most of the time… and they blow us away with massive failures and missteps and antagonizing their fans. My expectations for botw2 are extremely high and I’m not holding my breath (of the wild?) either, but I have a problem with the tone of this video because it feels to me that you’re making a pre judgement before experiencing it. If it’s an identical map with some additions and new dungeons and new innovative game mechanics I suspect it will be an extremely satisfying game.
Having said that idk if any game will be as good as a first ever play through of botw. I was never into the Zelda franchise until that game. Im not sure anything will be as good, not even my second play through was.
