Switch The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom

[eDPS]

Playing this on handheld and wow I'm really in awe in how something like this is being played on a handheld, only done a few little things but it's already really fun.

Currently letting the Joy Con charge while Zelda updates.

So excited.

Insane level of review scores. You could tell it was great from the way people were dancing around the embargos.

Will pick it up tomorrow and pray my Wii U still works.

I just finished OoT again last week, the comparisons are killing me right now. I want the Switch, just not yet.

I've barely started and I'm already erect. Looks gorgeous, handles great, I'm getting set for a loooong night.

Played 30 mins as I've got an early start but f me it's gorgeous.

Can see some very clever expansion on ideas, early days but very promising as far as being a close to perfect game.

Don't think anything will ever top the tone/feel/anticipation for OoT though.

This game is amazing and i bearly scratched the surface.

I feel there are going to be a lot of spoiler tags coming...

Not going to be able to play until tomorrow night, so I'm out.

I've died heaps so far but it hasn't been annoying at all, in fact when I've had trouble I've tried different tactics and even skipped it completely only to find something useful around the corner I can use the beat the enemies I had trouble with. So far really loving the options you have and love how your playthrough can be so different to someone else's

Currently the highest rated game of all time...I expected it would rate well but I didn't see that coming.

So sunk a good four hours into it last night, still haven't even scratched the surface and I can already feel that warm tingly sensation like this is an experience I will always remember. Definitely already had a few moments like the first time you enter Hyrule Field in OoT, running around in wonder at how huge and awesome Teldrassil was when I first logged onto WoW, or just cruising along in the train in Half-Life trying to catch a glimpse of everything.

Not enough 10's, but...

It can't be this good, surely? But if the reviews are right then we are in for one hell of a ride.

For those that have played, when you die do you lose much progress or does it auto save very frequently?

It autosaves frequently. I've died loads already but it's never been annoying. You can also manually save if you want to make sure.

The framerate is pretty horrible in docked mode... To the point where I'd rather just play in 720p on the TV

Heh, it took a grand total of 3 minutes to record my first death. Game looks bloody gorgeous though.

I got killed by some campfire Moblins while trying to fight with a broken branch. Whoops.

I found an axe though and since trees are destructible... screw the story. 2 hours of chopping coming up.

I'm sucking at combat so need the apples.
