  • I don’t have a general opinion, but given that youtube used to be an entirely free service that people put videos on with no expectation of being paid, and then google bought it, made it an effective monopoly, and have slowly turned it into the monetisation monster it is today, I don’t think anyone owes them anything.

    Also you have the right to control what content appears on your device. You are under no obligation to watch an advert just because a megacorp says so. By putting something on the internet (without a login or pay wall) they are making it freely available for anyone to download. That’s how the internet works (for now!)

    You don’t like Zelda games lol. Botw isn’t much of a Zelda game so it stands to reason you’d like it.

    Haha maybe it’s as simple as that!

    The recent Link’s Awakening remake was pretty well received, reckon they’ll keep making both classic and botw-style Zelda games in the way games like castlevania do?

    Did we play the same game? BotW was the first Zelda game that I actually enjoyed!

    As a die hard Zelda fan

    I guess this is it, it’s quite a different game to all the others, and people like different things.

    I will offer counters to all your points though:

    • The story is “Ganon’s doing bad, stop him”, same as most of the others
    • What about all the NPCs in all the towns?
    • There are 120 shrines, 4 temples, and a big final zone, how’s that no dungeons?
    • The music was great
    • Aren’t there enough different enemies to fill up that huge photo album?
    • The exploration was the most fun! Finding all the shines and secret seeds was great (clearly collectathons are my thing and not yours!), and the weapons breaking didn’t really seem like an issue after a while.
