They do in the US too.

Like I said, breath of the wild taught me all of the same things without popping up an unskippable text cloud every 5 minutes. The starting area of BOTW didn’t basically fall apart if you happen to not follow the intended circuit around the starting area like TOTK does (I was so confused because I went to the shrines in a scattershot order and so all the linearly designed building tutorials came in the wrong order)

Honestly the only good part so far has been the building tutorials because they let you just figure shit out on your own, unfortunately like I said they’re almost incoherent if you go to them in the wrong order like I happened to.

Somehow mechanically this game feels like it’s the less refined game that would later get made into something polished and refined like BOTW despite this one being made taking 6 years and recycling the same map. It feels like a very sophisticated rom hack. Lacking all the exploration I wanted from this type of game. I really am not a fan.

It feels like a breath of the wild gmod rom hack that gives me neither of what either games provide

I slightly regret selling my Wii U to get a Switch but I think there’s still time to backpedal on that one without it being a huge loss.

I got off the tutorial island 1-2 hours of gameplay ago. So far it feels like a sloppier version of BOTW with significantly more tutorials (for things BOTW taught me without a tutorial!) that is way more linear, and I really do not get the hype at all. I went around trying to turn towers on to try and feel some freedom and am really shocked by how identical the overworld is. Any time I enter caves I die instantly so apparently I’m ages off from being allowed to explore those. If I could return it I would have.

I got off the tutorial island 1-2 hours ago and was walking around turning area towers on. I’ve tried to enter the caves but I die within 30 seconds any time I try, so I’ve given up until I get more hearts. So far it feels like a mediocre rom hack of breath of the wild to me. I don’t feel like I get anything out of this game that breath of the wild didn’t do significantly better, it’s sloppier and less well considered imo. (Like, why does it have so many explicit unskippable tutorials for things that BOTW already taught me naturally?)

About 5. It really wasn’t doing it for me. I should probably try again since it was so damn expensive, but I really wasn’t getting what I hoped out of a new BOTW-style zelda game.

Are you never gonna buy a phone ever again? Your options are slipping.
