Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild

I have to ask, do you actually like the new name they gave Gannon? To me, its just annoying. Its not evil sounding, its not cool sounding. it sounds rather immature to my ears. Do you feel the same way?

I have the game on switch and currently about 3/4 done with the main quest.

Have been a long time Zelda fan and I love the freedom they have given to the new open world. Everything from NPC, wild life, nature environment to monsters are meticulously crafted and incredibly fun to interact with. Although puzzle-solving is still great I do wish that besides the four divine beast dungeons there could be other bigger, more complicated dungeons with boss fight to explore.

Gannon's name doesn't really bother me. I never have any expectation for the RPG elements of Zelda series. I think the story/characters are overall designed for a younger playerbase, which sometimes do feel oversimplified and goofy for us "mature" adults But I don't play Zelda for a convoluted story or characters of depth. Like so many other Nintendo games I play it cuz it's filled with simple and pure fun

With that said I am still pleasantly surprised by the story between Link and Zelda in Breath of the Wild. It's quite rich in details(compared to other Zelda games) and integrates nicely into game play. For the first time ever I actually is moved by the narration and starts to deeply care about the fate of our 2 protagonists

They explain why he's called calamity in the story. Something about him getting po'd about failing all the time.

I liked it well enough, but I was disappointed with the dungeons, enemy variety was really weak, I wish side quests were more interesting when it came to rewards, the story was weak, and the final confrontation was just underwhelming.

The game is at its best when you just explore.

oh there is defenitally a story.  Its just not as linear as in previous games.  I'm slowly finding out more about the world, what happened, why I lost my memory, ect.

I'm actually starting to run into the same problem I have with all open world games. I'm getting tired of just exploring. I want more of the story. But I'm also torn because I want to climb that mountain over there, the one the left.

Its a weird feeling, but it always results with me putting down the game for good. idk...I'm not going to be able to play it until Saturday or Sunday. So maybe that gap will help. Or...maybe not.

This might be entertaining for everyone:

Here's a question for everyone, how do you make potions? I ran into the chick that said you can just combine insects into potions. but A.) that was a while ago, and B.) she never said how to combine them. So I'm getting handed 2 potions thus far, and I have no idea how to make them. And healing/elemental resistance potions would be awesome to have atm.
