Okay i LOVE BoTW and all but TW3 was better. A much larger overworld, expansive caverns, multiple story threads all happening at once, weapon durability is WAY more managable, more armor, the list just keeps going on and on.

They are vastly different in terms of feeling and scope.

TW3 is the pinnacle of modern map centric open world games. It has an amazing story, dense world but still has map clutter as well as pretty linear areas, with very little reason to explore.

Zelda promotes exploration as a primary method of gameplay, it relies on the player wanting to explore rather than following map markers and feels pretty old school because of it.

Both games are really good, but for different reasons.

>>377398539
This. You have to REALLY pump yourself up for some great flourishes and details and then just completely ignore shit enemies, bosses, shrines, divine beasts, fucked up dodge-to-flurry detection, lame weapons with no moves, etc.

I never seen a game with such attention to detail completely devoid of meaningful content.

Dodge to flurry rush is really goddamn buggy. Sometimes it will trigger nowhere near where the attack when you make a piss poor dodge, and other times you can dodge an attack perfectly and nothing happens and you eat the follow up before being able to act. I really hope you noticed this.

Also, the weapons are all the same basically except spears.

/v/ always has to have a contrarian opinion.

There were exact threads like this about Skyrim and Witcher 3 when TW3 came out and was getting really good reviews.

Hell, nu /v/ claims that oblivion is an amazing game after it being fucking trashed at release.

if you want actual meaningful discussion that isn't a bubble of contrarian opinions go to r games.

Nope. The detection is not buggy, it's just forgiving, which results in the early detection as you said. The latter never happened to me
>weapons are basically the same
Uh heavy, light and bows are different from spears

>>377400830

The Witcher 3 has serviceable dungeons plus they aren't the main part of the game. A lot of the game is running around cities, which are crafted extremely well. The bosses of TW3 also have fantastic build-up, and while some of the fights are either easily exploitable or frustrating, they are a hell of a lot better than BotW.

You're moving the goalposts actually, and refuting a completely different argument. My original argument was only intended to melee weapons, clearly, because everyone with a brain fully understands bows are different... but yet you fall back on this distinction for some unknown reason (well, to move the goal posts).

Also, you can watch videos of the dodge shitting the bed if you want.

I did give you a reason. They are built-up better. You're finally fighting these villains who have been teased for 3 games. You learn a lot about them. The fights themselves aren't anything special, but the bosses themselves are at least intimidating. BotW is just four different forms of Ganon that look exactly the same.

I also strongly disagree that BotWs dungeons are not the main focus. The whole point of the fucking game is to go to the Divine Beasts and cleanse them of Ganons evil. They are also fucking terrible, worse than TW3s. TW3s dungeons may be boring in layout, but they are filled with useful items and books that explore the lore. BotW is just the same dungeon repeated 4 times with the same gimmick and some easy as shit puzzles.

You're a fucking idiot of you think BotW has good dungeons.

Why do people try to pretend like BoTW's world is some magical place? It's fucking hilarious. Most of it's empty and ugly.

I love coming on here every day and seeing what desperate new tactic /v/ can come up with to try and bring down BotW.

Today it's MUH GRAFICKS!

Still isn't as good as yesterdays attempt - claiming the game was bad because too many people liked it. Beyond mere deluded desperation.

Can't wait to see what you guys can come up with tomorrow. Fucking hilarious.

>>377402191
>drawstring needs to be constantly maintained with wax, which is unavailable in the battlefield

Yes, with heavy use and no proper upkeep they degrade like shit

>>377402123
Stylized art doesn't work if your textures are ass, like most BoTW textures.

>>377402357
>>377402191
Oh and by the way the manufacturer part is modern strings, older strings are far less durable
The drawstring degrades like shit anon

>>377396650
I haven't played a Zelda game since Link's Awakening, and never got past the second dungeon, but I have played the Witcher 3 and I'd rather go with a game I haven't played.

Story is nice in Witcher, but fuck the combat which is 90% of the game.

botw is soulless no personality

>>377402380
Not exactly. Cell shaded stuff, like BotW, works with simple textures.

>>377402317
W3 was shit follow the question mark open world shit.

At least BOTW actually had gameplay. And I mean you can't really use the manchild argument when we're talking genre fiction here.

BotW is new high benchmark for Open World games. TW3 is not.

BotW is the game people will be constantly referencing for the next decade and every open world game will be measured against it.

All the crying and salty tantrums in the world won't change the history books kiddo.

>>377402450
Yeah, story is horrible. When I buy a Zelda game I expect a fantastic world with memorable characters and story and music that fits the areas like a glove. BoTW had none of this, and the music was the worst Zelda game music of all time.

I like the artstyle, interactivity, world and general atmosphere more in BotW. W3 is boring to me outside of the scale.

>>377402557
>BotW is new high benchmark for Open World games.
What a sad outlook for the genre. Is what I would say if that were actually the case. Thankfully most devs will orientate themselves on the game that offered more than a couple of empty plains with copy pasted shit all over them. Aka TW3

>>377402738
not an argument

>>377402589
My claim is still correct, the string is as disposable as arrows themselves and my argument that the durability of bows in zelda is fucking retarded is as strong as ever if not even stronger now that I got you to research the durability of real bows and you found they last more than 100 uses at best.

>>377402557
>he actually believes this
While posting in a thread where BotW is being compared to the standards that the witcher set, hell almost every open world game since witcher 3 has been compared with the witcher 3.

People aren't convinced. BotW is technically inferior to Witcher 3 in most ways.

>>377402754

I don't get why people are upset that BotW doesn't constantly have music playing.

If there's always music playing you eventually just tune it out and it's white noise.
When you have lots of silence, it makes the music stand out that much more when it does play.

There isn't a single open world game which is doing what BotW is doing. You don't want to believe because you're in denial. But it's ok, everybody already knows - which is why it's already regarded as one of the greatest video games of all time.

LOL

There's literally hardly anything you can't climb in AC though. The only real difference is that BotW uses a sotc style grip strength system that can apply to any vertical surface. The result is the same, you climb shit a lot, big fucking deal.

>>377404901
Bunch of ledges and running up walls isn't free climbing. It's not a game in itself it's just a chore.

Botw climbing requires patience, risk v. reward, actually effort. And you can do it wherever you want.

JRPGs are full of anime characters with anime hair. 99belts on their trenchcoats and skin textures taken from the 1980ies. with the personality of a cardboard. you like them because you are a weeb

>>377404901
>can't fail
>free climbing
UMMMMMM SWEETIE BUT THAT'S CONTEXTUAL CLIMBING

>>377404901
It's nowhere near the same thing that BotW is doing.

Do youhave any idea how difficult it is to code a game with the amount of freedom that BotW has and not have it all come crashing down.

You can try and desperately claim otherwise but the entire fucking industry is in awe of what Nintendo designed. Keep crying.
