The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom - Breath Wilder

I don’t like the weird chozo-esque goat people who seemingly made all the Castle in the Sky tech that has come to play a bigger and bigger part in the Zelda series over the years. I know the LoZ series has no real consistent lore, unlike a series like Kirby, but this is…very dumb.

I just like lore and storytelling in general in my fiction/entertainment. Zelda is usually a series that merely gives you tantalizing breadcrumbs: enough to get your appetite kicked into high gear but not enough to make you feel like you aren't starving. I'll take any additional lore/storytelling I can get.

Man they ramped up the choice paralysis in this one to 11. 4 waypoints to kick things off, easy enough… Hey bro hey bro, come over here, look at this big hole, oh wait big tower, oh wait sky ruin.

There's this visceral feeing of oppressions and fear. Everything is so weird and alien. There's so many moments where I'm asking myself if I'm gonna spare another arrow/Lightbulb or if I can just power through the blackness for another minute to reach the bulb oh fuck what's that sound oh shit oh fuck oh no.

This game has so much cool shit in it that you can have a favorite thing about it that you haven't even SEEN on twitter, and that's amazing.

I'm now extremely deep into this game.

It took me FOREVER to realize that the map of the underword is kind of an inverted version of hyrule. All the valleys there are mountains, rivers are now impassable walls ect.

I've never been much about fashion but the gloom armor is fucking sick.

My big question is what happened to the sheikah shrines and towers? Did Purah and Robbie plunder them for materials to build the new towers?

Also, can we please have the old world map as a guidepost until updated with the new data? Just use a different color for the dated information.
 
This seems accurate to my jellies: warning, post contains upwards of 1 "f-bomb"

When you accept that this is true, and you see how cavalierly they're willing to treat continuity even between two games which are ostensibly direct sequels starring the same cast of characters and set just a few years apart, you may begin to understand why the timeline of the series as a whole looks the way that it does.

Hold on, is the Sheikah tech and Divine Beast stuff really just not mentioned in this one!? Is Calamity Ganon even explained now that Ganondorf is here? I’ve only played a few hours until I got bored and went back to BoxBoy, but is the story truly this poorly done?

tears of the kingdom is a metroid game. link and zelda went on a joyride with samus and when they came back space pirates had built a bunch of new tunnels
