Don't have it.
Starfield is a 7/10. Get over it.

It's okay, it could be better for sure though. It's much slower since you cannot play as aggressive as you can in a typical Zelda game.

The commercial says that Church isn't for perfect people, I guess that's why I'm an atheist.

After having played it more, I think this might be my last Zelda game and I don't know if I'm going to finish this. It's stupid easy and some of the echoes you get make it completely trivial to do nearly any puzzle you encounter or just completely bypass them.

I really don't like this new design philosophy from Nintendo for Zelda games where they give you tools to make the games completely trivial and boring.

This is how they approach so many franchises now and it sucks. My younger relatives get bored from their games and move into other stuff. It feels patronizing, their games used to be challenging despite being marketed for all ages.

I kinda wish the sword fighter would recharge on it's own. Only complaint I have.

Following this topic, I wanna see opinions.
Time is a funny thing, you know? I guess in the big picture of my life, you were only a blip. But oftentimes, those "blips" make the biggest impacts.

If you like experimenting, the game is amazing. If you want the most efficient and quick solution, it'll get old quick.

I've done nothing besides explore and complete side quests since I cleared the first dungeon, and I'm having a blast. Seeing what your new echoes can do is the best part.

I love classic Zelda but have basically zero interest in this. A Link Between Worlds was already a step in the wrong direction (but still good). I hate the new freedom do whatever you want open world game design philosophy that has become standard for every game now.
Favorite Games: BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Street Fighter III: Third Strike, Bayonetta, Bloodborne

I like the puzzles. Really makes me think.

The overworld feels pretty empty though.
Ghosts are cool.

Nintendo is showing continuous hatred towards dungeons and anyone who enjoyed Gameboy Zelda.

It's alright. Combat is way too slow though, and as a result the game is needlessly difficult. Also, the UI is bad. I also feel like Zelda moves too slowly, but I think I'm just used to being able to sprint.

People who make those complaints aren't the kind of people that actually can have their mind changed with new information.

Later in the game you get echoes that can help you move around much faster. Attaching yourself to a flying tile is way faster than walking.

Combat also gets better later on. Especially once you start upgrading the energy bar you can just carry around energy smoothies and use sword fighter all the time.

For Switch Zeldas, I like it more than TotK but not as much as BotW. It's easily in the top 3 top-down ones. It is very fun.

Yeah, it has keys, maps, and big keys, and are structured the same way as older games. It has the most classic-style dungeons in over a decade.

It's also not really open world. You can go to most regions, but a lot of the progression is still locked off like the older ones.

I don't know what some people want when they still cry about wanting a traditional Zelda.
...I think I'm done here...

That's basically how all Zelda games have been to varying degrees. Obviously there are progression-based items to help you on the way, but you can do really strange stuff like skip the candle in Zelda 2.
I will rule the world, and find that truly good cup of coffee.
