Ironic

Something can be overrated and still good, untwist those panties.

this happens with ever new Zelda. In a year everyone will agree it's good, not great.

>/v/ can't accept that something can be called overrated and still be good

It is overrated though. That doesn't necessarily mean it's bad, but it's definitely an overrated game.

Of course It's overrated like every Zelda game but it is great still

>>386360569

I still remember people trying this shit with skyward sword, it was priceless.
I actually fell for it with twilight princess being "Better than oot", bought a wii, catastrophic waste of money

Overrated is OoT or Mario Galaxy, games getting 100s across the board despite notable flaws.

Overrated is such a meaningless word. You can't just say something is overrated without first giving it some sort of objective value.

It is though. It's not the best game ever, but the game is good.
Has some solid dungeon designs, even some of the best in the series(Water Temple, Spirit Temple), combat is basic, but nice and fluid and items have good combat use as well as puzzle solving purposes.
>But the overworld is empty
Yeah, it is mostly empty. It's just a large hub area made to offer some downtime between dungeons. Nothing really wrong with that. There's a lot of content in the game anyway in the form of side-quests and mini-games, which I'd say justifies the lack of overworld content.

Honestly the only N64 dungeons I thought were "good" were the Goron Shrine and the Spirit Temple.

>>386363659
Becuase like you said it's full of dumb shit. It's also ugly as fuck, even for it's time it was subpar in terms of style/graphics. It looked like a muddy mess in 2006, it's downright awful now. I mean dead rising came out the same year.

It's just not an impressive game. People hyped it up as the next coming of Christ, the only reason OOT holds that position is for most people it was their very first 3D game. Most people that pay it afterward can understand why it was considered so good but only find it alright themselves.

Are you disagreeing because you got lost in it? Isn't the point of a temple to be challenging and require at least some amount of thought to solve?
The Water Temple is a great example of what a Zelda temple should be. Non-linear design that lets you obtain keys in different orders and featuring some kind of central gimmick. In this case raising and lowering the water to unlock different parts of the temple.
Any problems people have are either that they're too fucking stupid to solve it, which is a retarded reason and should be discarded, or that lowering and raising the water is a fucking hassle due to the game taking so long to play Zelda's Lullaby, or that equipping/unequipping the iron boots takes too long. That is a valid complaint, but has nothing to do with the temple design, rather a main gameplay mechanic being kind of shit.

Fuck off. This is wrong. There were plenty of threads calling SS the best Zelda game so far. They may have been the minority, but they were there. I remember this, because I spent so many threads arguing with retards who thought any overworld was filler and that the dungeons in SS made up for any of its flaws, as well as how the motion controls were perfect because ''Works on my machine!'' when they were objectively bad.

>>386366745
You don't have to do anything in BotW.

Some people would be satisfied with just that, and what are you talking about no game? It's still a game even if it's 10 minutes long.

>>386367215
It's filler if it's thoughtlessly designed and exist only to pad out the game, like the Triforce hunt in WW, the Song of the Hero in SS, or the Owl Statues in TP. The Test of Strength exist solely so Nintendo could say "Over 100 Shrines!" the repeat bosses are only there so they could say "a world boss around every corner!" etc. etc. It's there to make it seem like the game has more content than it actually does.

>>386367880
>or the Owl Statues in TP
That wasn't filler. They were like mini-puzzles.

Someones genuine feels on BOTW is a perfect litmus test for if someone has shit taste/is a shill or not.

I specifically bought a Wii U to play this shit, so above many I have every reason to convince myself this game is good to justify my purchase. The truth is the game is fairly shallow. Is it okay? Yeah, its okay. You hop in, fuck around with the same enemies youve been fuckin around with, glide around a little, whatever.

The game is extremely promising from the start but the plateau is literally indicative of the fun in this game - it drops right off its boring repetitive trash. The world of this game is so empty and shallow its honestly depressing. I think the thing that really upsets people with this game (and definitely for me) is the wasted potential. They gave me this perfect outline for an amazing zelda sandbox, then forgot to fucking fill it with sand. They just gave me the same boring enemies, pointless NPC with almost no interactions, zero story. The little details they got down pretty well, but then they forgot to do the bigger stuff thats supposed to drive the player.

If this game wasn't Zelda nobody would have liked it as much, and thats the bare ass truth.

The only memorable thing so far from the time I left the plateau is the island where they strip you of you gear and you have to survive. That tiny island was more fun that the entirety of the mainland.

>>386367880
Please don't compare anything in BotW with the triforce hunt.

Also, I really liked the pirate bases in WW and BotW's enemy camps are basically that.

>>386368251
If it wasn't Zelda and was on PS4 or something it would be considered the new Zelda Killer like Okami and everyone would be saying "BotW BTFO Nintendo by making a Zelda game better than any Zelda game they've ever made"

I don't know if that shitposting would be better or worse.

>>386368251
Honestly, if the game had better movement, this could have been so fucking fun. For example, I was so incredibly disappointed that the glider didn't have any kind of momentum based physics build into it. You can't dive down to gain speed and pull back up like you would an actual glider. I can understand not wanting the players abuse this to get to higher places, but you can just limit how much height you can regain after a dive.
The running and jumping also feels pretty stiff and combat is somehow worse than the previous games. Wind Waker had a really nice fluidity to the combat and the way you used items in unison with your sword was great, but BotW makes it all so boring. Link just kind of stands there and swings whatever weapon you have. I guess they figured they could replace interesting combat with more weapons, but it's not like they make much of a difference other than making combat horribly unbalanced and based on numbers rather than skill.
Then there's the fucking flurry attack. The flurry trigger is broken. It's supposed to trigger when you just barely dodge an attack, but as long as you dodge right as the enemy's attack ANIMATION starts, you can trigger it every time. There is no risk here.

>>386367880
But it is content, and is a lot, but it's only repetitive if you make it repetitive. You don't have to fight every Hinox you come across, you don't have to do every shrine immediately, and you don't even need all the koroks. So I don't understand how you can say "They're so much content that there isn't any!" without seeing how stupid that is.

You can't blame a game for not being what you want it to be. That's not a flaw the game has.

Mario Galaxy isn't trying to be an exploration based game. Judge it based on its on merit as a linear platformer. If you don't like it well that's on you.

>>386370379

BoTW has the same problems as many of the open world games we have today, repetitiveness, no sense of progression and inability to have impactful moments, all because these games are designed around making the adventure you want in the order you want, however it has the advantage of having gimmicks like climbing that make the world more immersive but to make this real it looks a generation behind its time graphically.

The game has many virtues that future games should emulate but critics act like it has no flaws when it obvious that the game made many sacrifices to consolidate its design and style

Counterpoint, from someone who loves BotW: BotW kind of fucks up the immediate sense of reward of finding a heart piece because the "discovery" is the shrine, not the orb.

And Koroks just get tiresome because they reuse the same eight Korok puzzles over and over. The "surprise" wears off. If you see something odd on the overworld it rarely leads to anything except a Korok popping out.

>>386370995
What should they reward you with, in a game where all you're abilities are given to you at the start of the game and you're equipments is expendable?

They can't give you new tools or impactful items because you're able to go anywhere from the get go.

Maybe freedom is overrated and linear games like Twilight Princess/Skyward Sword are the way to go.

I've got a challenge for all you BOTW fans: explain to me why I should consider BOTW to be the best game of this generation when I have many other recommendations for that title. I will listen to all arguments, but I have one condition: I will instantly discard every single argument I hear if I see even one opinion. When you argue your point, I want to hear nothing but facts. If you cannot verify it as a fact, don't bring it up. For example, saying something like "this is something no other open world has done before and I think it did it better than all of them" I will ignore that because that's your opinion and I don't want to hear it.

The weapon system in this game is pretty fugged. I'm surprised they didn't add any sort of crafting, and I was disappointed that there's only one weapon shop and that's for Ancient Gear. Like, you can only buy arrows or find them. Why can't I take a Bokoblin Fang and some wood or some shit and make an arrow myself. I'm not going to fukken make 5000 elixirs with 'em. Tired of having to dress up like a trap or hope Beedle's around to be able to use bows again. Not to mention like, it'd be a great use for ChuChu jelly. Fuck if anyone used anything other than the Fire one, and that's just to be a decent substitute for flint. Nobody's going to take the time to set up ChuChu traps except when you're in the fringes of the map and enemies can take a third of your health, so why not let me make elemental arrows or some shite.

Then it's like with weapons, I'd get these sick ass elemental ones, and I never want to use them. I hear that you can farm them after you cleanse all the Divine Beasts, but what's the fukken point in the post game. All weapons break like easy shit for that matter. People say it's to encourage different playstyles, but it just means I'm going to bomb some Moblins to get the same clubs n' shit I've been forced to use the rest of the game. Why can't I use these buckets of materials to craft, repair, or enhance weapons. Why is it that even when I can get weapons like the Trident back, I have to pay actual diamonds for that privileged. The only actual challenge with fighting shit like Lynel or bosses or what not is just having to ration out with this brittle fukken weapon system.

It's a good game, but it's not even the best Zelda, nor likely not even my GOTY. I don't care what people think of it.

>people unironically doing damage control for games where the gameplay was touted as something that was "unimportant" by the developers

>>386373593
A game can be good despite lacking gameplay though. It's not the only reason why you'd enjoy a game. Look at Morrowind, Silent Hill and Final Fantasy.

Nu-/v/, ladies and gentleman. Kill yourself.

>>386373904
Who are you quoting? Because that's not what I said.

Breath of the Wild is a good 8/10

If you faggots couild just accept that it has some flaws holding it back but is still good none of this shit throwing would occur

>>386363659
I dunno, it is one of my favourite Zeldas up there, but Link to the Past is still king after all these years

>>386373243
They're the biggest shitposters on this board and sony is considered nintendo's 'traditional' rival. It's not really out of line to think anti-nintendo posters are sonygros.

>>386374248
After BotW, I don't think that's the case

>>386370228
Except it's not, as highlighted by BotW's scores. Unless you consider it to be cinematic?

>>386374451
>You should never trust professional games critics
This is true and yes, they do tend to lean towards story-heavy ''cinematic'' games.

>>386374059
It has some flaws but it's still a solid 9.4/10 desu

>>386373973
Silent Hill is spoopy tryhard jumpscare garbage. I could go play Five nights at Freddys and get the same experience.

>/v/ criticizes every game ever
>even widely acclaimed games like The Witcher 3
>somehow criticizing BotW means you're a jealous sonygro
Why would BotW be the first game that everyone on /v/ loved?

>>386359412
BotW is objectively a shit game made for pedophiles

That's not what the left statement says. Aside from Uncharted there aren't a lot of cinematic games that get amazing reviews, see Grand Theft Auto, Bloodborne, Red Dead, Zelda, Mario, etc

Unless you're one of those retards that think any cutscenes = cinematic.

erhem.

Is this that autistic guy who made Fez? Or was that some other guy?

8/10 maybe a 7 if you ignore Nintendo games are for children.

Fuck Rito village and Death Mountain.
Fuck the majority of side quests being lazy fetch quests
Fuck that exploring mid game onwards is a pointless cycle of sacrificing weapons to gain different weapons and an unnecessary amount of orbs

>>386375282
This guy made Braid and The Witness. You're thinking of Phil Fish.

>>386374691
>widely acclaimed games like The Witcher 3
TW3 kinda sucks so it makes sense. When it comes to BotW there was so much shitposting because it was perfect and every criticism was pathetic.

>>386374691
Welcome to NintendoGAF.

>children
would not be able to play this game

They'd either lose patience before leaving the plateau or ragequit after they got oneshotted to many times.

>93 metacritic "sucks"

BOTW is one of those games where I can't even joke that "the best thing is the fact it ends!" because it literally never ends, you just grind copy-pasted content until you run out of shit to grind.
I don't know how people can like this shit. Atleast with skyrim mods can fix it, even sex mods couldn't fix BOTW because there's nothing worth fucking.

>>386375574
93 is still less than 97, senpai :^)

>>386375536
>would not be able to play this game
Then it would've gotten a lower metacritic score since all game journos are children.

>>386375558
Who doesn't though? I've used a fair share of piss bottles in my life. They work pretty well.

>>386375536
>this what botw retards actually believe

>>386375574
So?

>>386375558
Damn.... so this is the power of western video game developers....
Not bad........

>>386375676
Do you use your piss bottles by shoving a plastic tube you bought from the hardware store into your urethra?

>>386375641
>>386375715
How can it suck if it has such praise from game journos? Remember, you said they can't be wrong, and that "only sonybros argue against metacritic scores".

>>386375828
No, that would hurt like hell. I just put the tip of my cock in the bottle and piss in it. It's not rocket science.

>>386375845
Anything less than 95 on metacritic means the game is shit, buddy. That's a fact.

>>386375845
Fuck off, retard

>>386375174
wow three whole cinematic games you really got me there anon

tell me, how did until dawn do with critics? that's the most cinematic game i've ever played.

>>386359412
will /v/ ever get over botw?

>>386375941
It didn't do well because they didn't pay enough bribe money.

>>386375923
>Anything less than 95 on metacritic means the game is shit,
So games like Wonderful 101, Donkey Kong, Kid Icarus, bayonetta, ARMs, and Splatoon are irredeemable trash?

>>386376063
>So games like Wonderful 101, Donkey Kong, Kid Icarus, bayonetta, ARMs, and Splatoon are irredeemable trash?
Yep.

>>386361487
Clearly not lel

>>386376168
So why try to convince me that I should buy a Switch? If it's for Zelda, I can play it on wiiU AND emulate it perfectly on PC.

>>386376063
>So games like Wonderful 101, Donkey Kong, Kid Icarus, bayonetta, ARMs, and Splatoon are irredeemable trash?
Are you too dumb to check metascores anon? Of course they are. Jesus.

>>386376273
SMO which will get the first 100/100 on metacritic in history.

>>386376440
Which I'll be emulating since they've cracked the Switch's kernel.

>>386375536
You actually are delusional

>>386375923
>Uncharted has exactly a 95

Wtf I love sony now?!

>>386376440
Wait a second, doesn't that mean that every single game journo has to agree on a perfect score? how are you gonna manage that with ol' Jimbob?
