7

One of the few Zelda games where I disliked it the more I played it. Have a hard time summoning the urge to return to it.

I remember it primarily as the game that had the fun looking duping until it didn't.

BotW is a 10.

Yep. The story is absolutely worse than BotW too

A minimalist plot is, at worst, easy to ignore. TotK has a bigger story but it's just... bad.

Either stay minimal or go all in on a hefty, expansive narrative. None of this in between crap.

Definitely a 9/10 at the very least.

For comparison, Twilight Princess is a 8/10, and Skyward Sword is 7.5/10 at best.

Yeah it's a 9 or 10 for me. Agreed that the story is worse than botw's (which I actually liked a lot), but it's still a small enough aspect of the game to where it doesn't spoil all the fun there is to be had in the game.

The story is awful, half of the shrines have no puzzle, the sky is the same 5 islands copy pasted over and over, and 90% of the depths is running around finding worthless old amiibo link outfits.

But it's ultimately an expanded version of BOTW, so 9/10.

It's a solid 7/10, a massive improvement over BoTW and its pitiful 2/10.

TotK was some of the most fun I've had in a video game in a long time. I really love the unrestricted access they give to the entire world, and the presentation/cutscenes are up there with the best Zelda has to offer. The Master Sword scene was absolute S tier shit

Dungeons were a huge improvement over BotW as well, and stack up on average to most other 3D Zelda dungeons. The Lightning temple was especially interesting to go through

For sure a solid 9 for me. There's still some things I'd like to see improvement on but it was an excellent experience from start to finish imo

Maybe an unpopular opinion but I feel like subjectively BotW is better. At a certain point in Tears I just wanted to go I get it. You can build stuff, and walk away.

I beat the game and completed all shrines, lightroots, side adventures, side quests. (Went down the list) I skipped most of the Koroks and a quarter of the Bubbulfrogs.

I think the story in its detail is 9/10. The story as a sketch is not but the details make the game. I love how each heroine was heroic in a different way.

The game is worth the price just to play around in the world due to Zonai Technology.

BotW is a perfect example of "less is more". Less content than TotK but it's a much more focused and rewarding experience.

TotK, to borrow a criticism applied to another video game, is as wide as an ocean and deep as a puddle

With 5 being average, Id put TotK high seven to low 8 range. Better than a good chunk of what came out, but a few flaws holding it back. (Low difficulty , weak story)

Because there's a lot of people who either don't like the BotW formula, or feel as though TotK was a glorified expansion even from the BotW fans.
