Current Events > In the space of about 2 weeks, I've played about hours on BotW. *spoilers*

(+) Yeah! (+)

I'm not the biggest Zelda fan (although I do quite like the series, and usually buy the main series games), but this is basically a great installment in the franchise. There's so much to do, and it's a lot of fun. Completing shrines, exploring, cutting down trees, burning things, talking to people, fighting enemies and getting items sometimes, doing things in the main Quest. Although I'm not as into Zelda or sandbox games as much as some people, I can sorta see why people are saying GotY, or best game ever, or whatever.

Despite the fact I've been playing for about 30 hours, I've only done about a fifth of the main Quest, i.e. I've found and beaten the elephant dungeon. I've been doing plenty, though, of course, perhaps mostly exploring and doing shrines. I don't know if I want to beat it (and if I do, it'll be the first Zelda I've bothered to beat), but just going around the map and doing stuff is very good fun.

What do other people on CE think about this game? Have you beaten it, or 100%ed it? How many hours do you think you have on it?

You've played about hours?

Sunhawk, literary genius

Sorry. 30. But it does say further down in the post.

i put in about 10 hours and never played again. i had a really hard time enjoying BOTW, I wish there was more structure and I didn't find anything about the world I saw in those 10 hrs interesting or compelling
---

All the hours? A few of the hours?
---

I've played over 200 hrs on normal mode and probably 300 hr on master mode. I've probably done 90% of the game. I am still enjoying it almost a year later. Albeit I don't play as much as I use to.

I haven't gotten all 900 Korok seeds or done Trail of the Sword
---

I've played near 100 hours on it, if not more. I ended up 100%ing it. I haven't tried Master Mode yet.
---

I bought it a little before Christmas
when i've had the time i've been playing it a whole lot

I first decided after the plateau to get all the towers. I also went in any shrines along the way. I ended up getting 13 hearts for the SPOILER before attempting any of the divine beasts
now i've done two of them. probably Vah Rudania next

it's a lot of fun and a breath of fresh air since I was burnt out on the open world games genre
---

Yeah, I forget to say, I spent a lot of time finding and activating towers. It's fun gradually moving towards one of them, and then there are usually fun, varied challenges around the base, and as you're climbing up. I really enjoyed the desert one, with the tar pit around it, and dragging the metal blocks into positions so I could get to the tower.

About hours

I have about 150 and I've had the game since August.
