I thought it was impossible to outunhype no man's sky but it did. I agree

>had no hype
>literal GOAT
Good shitpost user.

Yes.

It's close

1. Spore
2. Mass Effect 3
3. Breath of the Wild
4. Halo 3
5. No Man's Sky
6. Metal Gear Solid V
7. Super Smash Bros. Brawl
8. The Last Guardian
9. Assassin's Creed III
10. Final Fantasy XV

It lived up to the hype

It's an amazing game and one of the best Zelda games in the franchise.

But if you want to act edgy then you can hate it. Have fun with your anger issues and clinical depression.

Go away marketers.

Iunno, I'm digging it besides the frame issues and the shit durability.

Go away contrarians.

Good shitpost user.

>halo 3
????
At the time, it broke the record for release day sale until gta4 came out

It lived up to my personal hype, but I understand why others would be disappointed.

yeah never fall for the neuromarketing meme again

I didn't like durability at first. But I came across a really tough group of enemies for a quest and died multiple times.

Then I realized I had a fragile powerful sword from a previous temple I swapped out. It obviously broke, but I was able to kill 3 enemies super quick and the camp was much more manageable after that.

After that it clicked with me. Having those tools available to you at some points but not always really changes things.

I kind of agree with this. Durability does good things for the combat, but the problem is that eventually you'll have a full inventory of good weapons and realize there's no reason to take on enemy camps anymore because you're just wasting your good weapons and trading for their shitty ones.

shoo shoos sonyger

I was super hyped for this AND it lived up to it.

Not a shitpost. 100% where i am at. I had 0 hype for zelda and now i think it is GOAT. Deal with it.

TP was more hyped and way more disappointing

>game of the year hype
>ends up game of the century

people can buy a game and not like it after

yes

gamerankings.com/browse.html

this is the problem and breaking good weapons for puzzles also sucks

Yeah its pretty disappointing and massively overrated. Its not legit bad though, it just has a tons of flaws that reviewers fail to acknowledge due to fanboyism and paid reviews.

In terms of buyer's remorse hype I've experienced

1. Brink
2. Spore
3. Bioshock Infinite
4. Saints Row The Third
5. Dark Souls 2

>being intelligent with your choices is dumb

...

You know me?

what? fable 2 wasnt all that hyped and the game was great.

fable 1 though....

i mean you can just re-load, but it's still annoying

I think that the rewar for killing monsters is supposed to be
A. Materials
B. The chest that opens at the end
But there's a massive imbalance between the amount of monster parts you'll get and the amount of critters you'll have anyway, so you'll never use all of them. I just use the monster parts as currency.

And the chest isn't always great.

It's not Metroid Other M. I should not have hyped myself, but that game was marketed to hell and back along with all the fawning praise / dev interviews. An ok Zelda game* is still 100x better than an utterly awful Metroid game.

*(and I don't know if BOTW is; I suspect it's pretty good)

Durability feels like it should be a lot more, especially for certain weapons. As far as I've gotten there is no way to repair equipment, so having it break in one or two hits feels both absurd for gameplay reasons and also for the idea that these weapons are usually well made and designed to actually be used more than three hits.

Even Far Cry 2 wasn't this bad.

>its not legit bad though

How do I go about getting paid to make pro-Nintendo posts, like you?

how was halo 3 overhyped? it was fucking great

Ive been playing for about 8 hours or so and I am loving it to death.

Can somebody fill me on their own personal issues with the game? Trying to see the other side here

>Zelda game
>no hype

Top kek, shitposter.

i wasn't waiting for this at all, its a great game imo.

>monster drops good/decent weapon
>chest gives shitty low level weapon
This happens way too often

on the other hand
>easy shrine
>chest has 50-60 damage weapon

>No Man's Sky
If you got hyped for this you're a certified retard.

Decent list, but I'd put ME3 a few notches down, if not remove it from the list entirely. The ending was a shitshow but the same people that stuck through ME2 from ME1 knew what they were getting themselves into.

Its high up there. DOA5 felt worse.
But its definitely Nintendo's biggest blunder.

BotW wasn't as disappointing as No Man's Sky by any measure. In fact, NMS, ME3 and Spore should make up the undisputed top 3 with a large gap after them.

>No SW:ToR

Had cautious hype and still somehow pleasantly surprised.

I really like the new divine beast dungeons but I still wish it had the classic style dungeons.

I have played around 10 hours. It's been amazing so far. I seriously doubt anyone who really played it thinks it's shit. Only issues so far is a few fps drops. I'm also a bit worried about there only being 4 dungeons.

>break in one or two hits

wat

It's not a bad game, its just an 8/10 at best, maybe a 7 in some areas.

Its a fun exploration game, but tons of things hold it back, and no, not just performance.

no one expected TOR to be good

It's called a hyperbole you fucking goblin

>got hype for or enjoyed mass effect games
>liked Breath
how can one man have such bad taste?

I wasn't hyped for it at all. WW, TP, and SS all kind of sucked t b h, especially SS. You can't seriously expect me to believe that those games are better than BotW while also believing that TP wasn't overhyped as fuck. I didn't even expect a Wii U Zelda game but it got one anyway, so I'm satisfied.

Answer the question, please.

We have quite enough of that as it is please

You never even played SS you shitter.

this is some falseflagging if i've ever seen it.

I think it's great, at least for a game in the franchise. The Zelda formula has been running thin for myself ever since the release of Skyward Sword. Hell, I'd even go as far as to say back when Twilight Princess came out I was getting bored. After that, I felt like I couldn't really play another game that followed in the same footsteps as Ocarina of Time. Sure, Breath of the Wild isn't all that original with it's concepts and gameplay mechanics, but what they do to shake things up is enough for it to bring new life into a stagnant franchise. It feels like for the fist time in a long ass time that they're thinking about Zelda in a forward thinking manner instead of just relying on the past. Whether or not this is the new way Zelda is moving forward, I'm glad to see them trying newer things with at least some of their franchises.

Everyone was expecting a good Zelda game, we got an alright to good Zelda game depending on your preference.

I really want to buy this game but the negative posts I have seen about the game are stopping me from doing so, the whole 4 dungeons thing mainly.

>increase weapon durability to reasonable levels
>make it so that weapons lose durability while enemies use them as well, or just that enemy dropped weapons have lower durability than chest and other found weapons
>allow a method for weapon repair, but make it rare and/or difficult, think like repair staves from Fire Emblem

Now weapons will last a reasonable amount of time, and chest weapons have automatic value over enemy drops because they're at max durability. You'll still have relatively low durability weapons dropping from enemies, so you'll be switching weapons, but it won't be quite as absurd.

Too bad this game can't actually be modded so this is all pointless to say.

I'm not really that far into the game, but I'm really enjoying it so far.

My only complaints are the framerate issues and the number of weapon slots being too small.

I'm pretty sure No Man's Sky is the holder of that title.

actually its the best game of all time

hence why I'm not playing it right now and I'm posting on Sup Forums instead. It's just THAT good.

this feels like if phantom pain had been finished.

you're supposed to expand those

Breath is legit a 3/5-star game at best, wouldn't you agree?

It's really fun the same way MGSV is: really good gameplay and everything feels nice and good but outside of that it's shallow.

If you get it you won't regret it but you'll want more from it after a while.

The "4 dungeons" lie is a Nintendo marketer scheme. You see, the game actually has 0 dungeons (you would know this if you played the game/watched the game) compared to the older games which have 8, 6, 10, etc. So the marketers lie and claim that the Beast Shrine gimmicks are dungeons in order to put up a # of dungeons remotely comparable to that of the older games.

Don't feed into the BS nintendshill lies, user.

Not hyped really
Dont like it.

Im just gonna wait for a new 2d zelda

The games enemy variety compared to other zelda games is seriously shit. The whole game your just fight variants of the same bokoblin, lizalfos, and bigger moblin. Also the boss fights were so underwhelming and forgettable.

How? Like I said, I'm not that far into the game.

So many people hated Twilight Princess but I loved its style and feeling. Was a very comfortable game.
Had the best fishing too.

>HURR DURR I HATE HOW EVENTUALLY I HAVE NOTHING BUT INCREDIBLE SWORDS THAT AREN'T WORTH USING ON TRASH

So fucking shoot them with your fucking bow and a fucking arrow you fucking retards. Holy fuck. Or you could try something revolutionary and simply carry a couple shitty weapons for using against shitty monsters. Nobody is forcing you to carry nothing but Guardian weaponry.

On your way to Kakariko you'll come across a character that's impossible to miss. Talk to them, do their easy side-quest, and they'll trade you weapon slots for special items.

Unfortunately that's MGS V

Zelda, I couldnt care less, only fanboys were hyped

We got one of the worst zelda games in the entire franchise. Its not even "good enough" half of the time. Shittin' game wasn't even finished nor feels finished which is a first for Zelda. Its like the game never progressed beyond an alpha stage of development but one day they got their graphics engine working and Havok implemented 20 minutes later and just because it looked pretty and had the funny physics ragdolls they assumed half of the game's development was complete.

A jack of all trades, master of none, drowned in water as wide as an ocean and deep as a puddle.

why would you carry shit weapons when you have good weapons?

Well, if there are 0 dungeons then where do boss fights take place? On the field or inside some of the shrines? There are bosses right?

So you have something you don't feel bad about wasting on a Stasis puzzle or a group of Keese at night.

You could also just use those good weapons against really common/weak enemies and not fucking stress it, but clearly that's not an option.

Nah, I'd probably give it a 4/5. It's by no means perfect and some aspects of the open world experience have been done better by other games, but still, the things it does right, it does them well in my opinion. Things like exploration and traversing the world is fun to me and I like the varied amounts of locations and villages. The size and scope when compared to other Zelda games is pretty fucking intense when you put it in perspective. Though, am I happy that dungeon amounts took a hit? No. But, to be fair, there are a shit load of shrines that scratch many of those puzzles itches so I think it's a decent trade off. Also, combat, whether you love it or hate it, it at least has a bit more depth than a typical Zelda game and hopefully can be expanded upon in the future.

>Only four dungeons, each can be completed in 20 minutes, they took me 35 minutes each.
>Dungeons have no unique design or enemies, aside from the boss at the end. All bosses have similar design.
>Dungeons consist of a few rooms haphazardly stuck together, all have the same gimmick, rotation.
>Only four tools to beat shrines, you come to understand how to solve them after doing a few, most use very similar puzzles, very few exceptions.
>Only 15 enemy types, all others are recolors with, maybe, one extra move.
>Of those fifteen, 80% of the enemies you are going to be fighting are Bokoblins, Lizalfos, and Moblins.
>Another 10 percent are Keese and Chu Chu that die in one hit and the occasional Wizrobe.
>Damage sponge enemies, particularly the highest tier recolors and Lynels, which have more HP than Guardians.
>No directional input attacks, just one standard combo for each weapon type.
>No unique weapon movesets, weapons are just reskins of other weapon types.
>There's no incentive to fight enemies after you have decent or good weapons, you break your weapons for worse weapons.
>Any difficulty the game could have had is removed by a heal system that can instantly heal all of your HP from the pause menu.
>Half of the side quests are fetch quests. One in particular asks for a total of 100 pieces of wood along with talking to a few NPCs.
>Story told through flashbacks, very little going on in the world you are in, little incentive narrative wise to keep playing. Compare to past Zelda's.
>Not so great English voices, no option to change voice language and keep English text.
>Music is absent most of the game, when it's present, it's worse than the other Zelda's. Listen to [YouTube] The Legend of Zelda Breath of the Wild Music; Goron City.
>There is nothing in the world but Shrines, enemy camps, mandatory towns, and a few minor secrets that give you korok seeds. Lots of empty space and "dead air" with nothing happening.

It's a 6/10 for me. Zelda is finished.

4 robot ganon fights one in each divine beast.

The rest of the boss fights take place around the overworld cause a "boss" will just be sleeping somewhere randomly.

How is it possible that this shitty copypasta spread this fucking fast?

Did you play it?

Unless you go in through the back of Kakariko.

For me it far exceeded the hype, though I avoided trailers/gameplay/news about it like the plague just to keep it a surprise.

I was expecting a modest open world Zelda game that would, if nothing else, at least be more fun than SS which was a flying trainwreck. What I got was one of the biggest, most varied worlds I've explored in a game (also dat draw distance holee fuck), a challenging game that strips down a lot of the bullshit from similar RPGs, a beatiful Studio Ghibli-esque anime aesthetic and tone, and a moody piano-led dynamic soundtrack that legit ties the whole game together.

I think anyone bitching about it either can't get past the WiiU/Switch's low specs limiting the visuals (which, while fair, isn't that relevant when the aesthetics hold it up), or they just hate it because it's different and doesn't tick all the traditional Zelda boxes.

It's good and the dungeons it has are fun but too short imho. There's tons of shit to find in the open world and there's tons of content outside of the "main path" that isn't just shrines or koroks.
Few areas are kind of just empty fields, especially that one snow area where you're meant to go on a horse and have some sick horse combat with Lynels.

It's not the kind of game that is for everyone and it probably pisses off a lot of fans by not having the classic style dungeons.

There are no bosses in BOTW outside of Ganonondorf and his elemental copies.

IS CTR trying to ruin Zelda? Why talk bad about what is literally a good game?

Fishing and Arbiters Grounds was the only thing I liked about that game.

No. I'm pretty satisfied. I think it lived up to the hype.

10/10 assessment friend, very accurate.

No, not at all. Completely the opposite, actually. It's the first hyped up Zelda game that actually lives up to my expectations. TP will forever have the worst hype -> result ratio.

>4 runes
>those piss poor main dungeons
Yeah, I'm feeling a little pissed. Still good, though.

How is it the worst Zelda when Skyward Sword and Phantom Hourglass exist?

Not at all, I'm 25 hours in and it's already my favorite Zelda game. It's so fucking good.

>main menu
literally what

I loved the style but I became so bored with its adherence to being a 'Zelda' title. I don't know what it was but about halfway through I found I was just playing out of stubbornness to get to the ending rather from any sense of fun.

>all those threads thare are jsut "b.b.but it's shit guys stop playing it! OR ELSE" in disguise
nah, it's alright, you made a bad life choice, just assume it.

TP had more hype
TP was a shittier game

Its just that most of the newfags on Sup Forums were 12 or younger when they first played TP. Nostalgia takes over at that point.
