Game Over: The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild
GameOn Magazine|Issue 165 - July 2023
In all my years of playing Nintendo games, The Legend of Zelda series has been a bit of a mystery to me, and it wasn't until the franchise broke free from its shackles and embarked on a new adventure that I was finally able to sink my teeth into it. So while longtime fans may lament this breaking conventions mindset, I actually find it refreshing, and I feel like the developers at Nintendo were reaching out to people like me who found the older titles uninviting. This attempt at an open world and more freeing Zelda game is, of course, seen in The Legend of Zelda: Breath of The Wild. This was my first Zelda game, and I've put way too much time into it, but that's due to its sprawling landscapes, genius physics system, gorgeous visuals, and player freedom. I've played it multiple times now, and after the latest gameplay showcase for Breath of the Wild's sequel - Tears of the Kingdom - I decided to jump back into the world of Hyrule and fall in love all over again with the experience. It's not my first rodeo, more like my fourth or fifth.
