of choose the kingdoms story of choose the kingdoms story disappointed me or something like that disappointed me or something like that disappointed me or something like that right I'm going to be honest it kind of right I'm going to be honest it kind of right I'm going to be honest it kind of did and I'm a little sad to say that and did and I'm a little sad to say that and did and I'm a little sad to say that and that is because I went into this game that is because I went into this game that is because I went into this game very very excited I was expecting a very very excited I was expecting a very very excited I was expecting a grand moving emotional powerful Story grand moving emotional powerful Story grand moving emotional powerful Story full of lore and character development full of lore and character development full of lore and character development and all this stuff and I I got some of and all this stuff and I I got some of and all this stuff and I I got some of it but I didn't get a lot from it and it but I didn't get a lot from it and it but I didn't get a lot from it and here's the thing that I will say I was here's the thing that I will say I was here's the thing that I will say I was kind of forcing myself to accept a lot kind of forcing myself to accept a lot kind of forcing myself to accept a lot of this throughout the time I had with of this throughout the time I had with of this throughout the time I had with tears of the Kingdom but I want to go tears of the Kingdom but I want to go tears of the Kingdom but I want to go into detail on why I felt this way about into detail on why I felt this way about into detail on why I felt this way about certain aspects so first of all let's certain aspects so first of all let's certain aspects so first of all let's get the positives out of the way because get the positives out of the way because get the positives out of the way because I was a little negative there I was a I was a little negative there I was a I was a little negative there I was a little bit of a Debbie Downer here's little bit of a Debbie Downer here's little bit of a Debbie Downer here's what it did great here's what I did what it did great here's what I did what it did great here's what I did better than breath of the wild in my better than breath of the wild in my better than breath of the wild in my opinion the memories overall are back opinion the memories overall are back opinion the memories overall are back but they were done better like the whole but they were done better like the whole but they were done better like the whole Direction the cutscenes the animation Direction the cutscenes the animation Direction the cutscenes the animation The Voice acting the whole scenario all The Voice acting the whole scenario all The Voice acting the whole scenario all that is just great it's it's just a that is just great it's it's just a that is just great it's it's just a treat to watch these cutscenes and the treat to watch these cutscenes and the treat to watch these cutscenes and the voice acting is absolutely phenomenal voice acting is absolutely phenomenal voice acting is absolutely phenomenal Patricia Summerset does even better as Patricia Summerset does even better as Patricia Summerset does even better as Zelda in my opinion Chris Hackney kills Zelda in my opinion Chris Hackney kills Zelda in my opinion Chris Hackney kills it as raru and I couldn't believe that it as raru and I couldn't believe that it as raru and I couldn't believe that it was Jeremy Lee who was voicing Sonia it was Jeremy Lee who was voicing Sonia it was Jeremy Lee who was voicing Sonia and once I found that out I was like yes and once I found that out I was like yes and once I found that out I was like yes that is her that is so so awesome so that is her that is so so awesome so that is her that is so so awesome so that was great the characters themselves that was great the characters themselves that was great the characters themselves are cool I just mentioned rauru and are cool I just mentioned rauru and are cool I just mentioned rauru and Sonia really cool characters Ganondorf Sonia really cool characters Ganondorf Sonia really cool characters Ganondorf was also very well portrayed I like that

was also very well portrayed I like that was also very well portrayed I like that the lore is interesting if you look into the lore is interesting if you look into the lore is interesting if you look into the lore if you look into all the like the lore if you look into all the like the lore if you look into all the like deep dives into the Zone eye stuff the deep dives into the Zone eye stuff the deep dives into the Zone eye stuff the get indoor stuff it's very very get indoor stuff it's very very get indoor stuff it's very very interesting though it can be a little interesting though it can be a little interesting though it can be a little convoluted and confusing it's still very convoluted and confusing it's still very convoluted and confusing it's still very cool and here's one big thing that I cool and here's one big thing that I cool and here's one big thing that I loved I love the way you gather these loved I love the way you gather these loved I love the way you gather these memories I love the way you find them memories I love the way you find them memories I love the way you find them because they're just big giant geoglyphs because they're just big giant geoglyphs because they're just big giant geoglyphs on the map and those Jewelers kind of on the map and those Jewelers kind of on the map and those Jewelers kind of tell you what memory you're about to get tell you what memory you're about to get tell you what memory you're about to get into which memory you're about to see into which memory you're about to see into which memory you're about to see also they're just easier to find because also they're just easier to find because also they're just easier to find because I didn't like finding the breath of the I didn't like finding the breath of the I didn't like finding the breath of the wild memories you just are exploring wild memories you just are exploring wild memories you just are exploring some random place and you just find This some random place and you just find This some random place and you just find This Little Light puddle and it was just not Little Light puddle and it was just not Little Light puddle and it was just not very easy to find not very easy to very easy to find not very easy to very easy to find not very easy to locate just finding these little shiny locate just finding these little shiny locate just finding these little shiny like locations I just thought that kind like locations I just thought that kind like locations I just thought that kind of sucked shooting straight up on a of sucked shooting straight up on a of sucked shooting straight up on a Skyview Tower located in the geograph Skyview Tower located in the geograph Skyview Tower located in the geograph putting the beacon flying right down putting the beacon flying right down putting the beacon flying right down skydiving I love that that was great and skydiving I love that that was great and skydiving I love that that was great and here are some of my favorite moments in here are some of my favorite moments in here are some of my favorite moments in the game story wise the whole Master the game story wise the whole Master the game story wise the whole Master Sword retrieval was amazing loved it Sword retrieval was amazing loved it Sword retrieval was amazing loved it loved it loved it so much one of the loved it loved it so much one of the loved it loved it so much one of the best master sword retrievals and moments best master sword retrievals and moments best master sword retrievals and moments in the series in my opinion of course in the series in my opinion of course in the series in my opinion of course Zelda turning into a light dragon is a Zelda turning into a light dragon is a Zelda turning into a light dragon is a cut scene and a moment I'll never forget cut scene and a moment I'll never forget cut scene and a moment I'll never forget with Zelda stories overall and I really with Zelda stories overall and I really with Zelda stories overall and I really really liked the moment where Ganondorf

really liked the moment where Ganondorf really liked the moment where Ganondorf comes face to face with link and the comes face to face with link and the comes face to face with link and the sages in Hyrule castle and even before sages in Hyrule castle and even before sages in Hyrule castle and even before that when puppet Zelda was all like oh that when puppet Zelda was all like oh that when puppet Zelda was all like oh remember all the memories and the remember all the memories and the remember all the memories and the moments we had here and then she turns moments we had here and then she turns moments we had here and then she turns into puppet Ganon I love that really into puppet Ganon I love that really into puppet Ganon I love that really really cool moment and of course the really cool moment and of course the really cool moment and of course the final boss with Ganondorf and then the final boss with Ganondorf and then the final boss with Ganondorf and then the demon dragon is are you really probably demon dragon is are you really probably demon dragon is are you really probably my favorite final boss of any video game my favorite final boss of any video game my favorite final boss of any video game ever but here is where the criticism ever but here is where the criticism ever but here is where the criticism comes in I'm going to get very very comes in I'm going to get very very comes in I'm going to get very very critical from here on out I'm sorry I'm critical from here on out I'm sorry I'm critical from here on out I'm sorry I'm really not a fan of this non-linear really not a fan of this non-linear really not a fan of this non-linear storytelling and the thing is I storytelling and the thing is I storytelling and the thing is I understand why they're doing it I understand why they're doing it I understand why they're doing it I understand how other games have done it understand how other games have done it understand how other games have done it I understand why they're doing it I understand why they're doing it I understand why they're doing it because they want to emphasize the because they want to emphasize the because they want to emphasize the gameplay they want to emphasize the gameplay they want to emphasize the gameplay they want to emphasize the exploration they want you to figure this exploration they want you to figure this exploration they want you to figure this stuff out by yourself right well I also stuff out by yourself right well I also stuff out by yourself right well I also think that there are ways that could think that there are ways that could think that there are ways that could have done this which could have been a have done this which could have been a have done this which could have been a lot better because going out and finding lot better because going out and finding lot better because going out and finding these memories was great but I just these memories was great but I just these memories was great but I just didn't like finding them out of order at didn't like finding them out of order at didn't like finding them out of order at all I hated it and here's the thing I all I hated it and here's the thing I all I hated it and here's the thing I did the memories first because that was did the memories first because that was did the memories first because that was the thing I was honestly probably most the thing I was honestly probably most the thing I was honestly probably most excited to do with the tears of the excited to do with the tears of the excited to do with the tears of the Kingdom so every time I saw a geoglyph I Kingdom so every time I saw a geoglyph I Kingdom so every time I saw a geoglyph I went straight to that geoglyph saw the went straight to that geoglyph saw the went straight to that geoglyph saw the memory and was like ah here's another memory and was like ah here's another memory and was like ah here's another memory in the memory log book but I memory in the memory log book but I memory in the memory log book but I didn't realize that they were telling didn't realize that they were telling didn't realize that they were telling more of a linear story with these more of a linear story with these more of a linear story with these memories than they did in breath of the

memories than they did in breath of the memories than they did in breath of the wild so like Color Me shocked and wild so like Color Me shocked and wild so like Color Me shocked and surprised and absolutely kind of upset surprised and absolutely kind of upset surprised and absolutely kind of upset at this actually when maybe the third at this actually when maybe the third at this actually when maybe the third memory I see out of all of these memory I see out of all of these memory I see out of all of these memories is the death of Queen Sonia I memories is the death of Queen Sonia I memories is the death of Queen Sonia I was very upset when I saw that and was was very upset when I saw that and was was very upset when I saw that and was like well I only saw like two other like well I only saw like two other like well I only saw like two other memories with her I didn't get to know memories with her I didn't get to know memories with her I didn't get to know her as a character I didn't get to know her as a character I didn't get to know her as a character I didn't get to know her as a person I didn't get to really her as a person I didn't get to really her as a person I didn't get to really understand why Zelda loves and cares for understand why Zelda loves and cares for understand why Zelda loves and cares for this person so much and then she just this person so much and then she just this person so much and then she just dies right in front of my face I didn't dies right in front of my face I didn't dies right in front of my face I didn't even care about her that much I liked even care about her that much I liked even care about her that much I liked her I thought she was cool I thought her her I thought she was cool I thought her her I thought she was cool I thought her design was cool her look was cool all design was cool her look was cool all design was cool her look was cool all that I just thought she was really cool that I just thought she was really cool that I just thought she was really cool but I don't know anything about her and but I don't know anything about her and but I don't know anything about her and she died and then I had to go back to she died and then I had to go back to she died and then I had to go back to find all those other memories and that find all those other memories and that find all those other memories and that one really awesome memory where Zelda's one really awesome memory where Zelda's one really awesome memory where Zelda's talking to raru and Sonia about link and talking to raru and Sonia about link and talking to raru and Sonia about link and how she has feelings for him and all how she has feelings for him and all how she has feelings for him and all that well I got that memory after I saw that well I got that memory after I saw that well I got that memory after I saw Sonia die so imagine if I saw that Sonia die so imagine if I saw that Sonia die so imagine if I saw that memory first and then I saw Sonia's memory first and then I saw Sonia's memory first and then I saw Sonia's death it would have hit a little bit death it would have hit a little bit death it would have hit a little bit harder for me and here's the thing you harder for me and here's the thing you harder for me and here's the thing you might be saying oh Anish quick well they might be saying oh Anish quick well they might be saying oh Anish quick well they you have the order of the memories in you have the order of the memories in you have the order of the memories in the Forgotten Temple you can go there in the Forgotten Temple you can go there in the Forgotten Temple you can go there in the Forgotten Temple you can see it all the Forgotten Temple you can see it all the Forgotten Temple you can see it all there right yeah well here's the thing there right yeah well here's the thing there right yeah well here's the thing me being the super excited person that I me being the super excited person that I me being the super excited person that I was when I was playing tears of the was when I was playing tears of the was when I was playing tears of the Kingdom I didn't even listen to impa and Kingdom I didn't even listen to impa and Kingdom I didn't even listen to impa and Paul was like oh we should go to the Paul was like oh we should go to the Paul was like oh we should go to the Forgotten Temple I just assume that

Forgotten Temple I just assume that Forgotten Temple I just assume that there's some more extra lore in the there's some more extra lore in the there's some more extra lore in the Forgotten Temple maybe an extra memory Forgotten Temple maybe an extra memory Forgotten Temple maybe an extra memory there I was like I'll go there later there I was like I'll go there later there I was like I'll go there later right I didn't realize that the right I didn't realize that the right I didn't realize that the Forgotten Temple shows you the location Forgotten Temple shows you the location Forgotten Temple shows you the location of these memories and probably even the of these memories and probably even the of these memories and probably even the order that they're supposed to be seen order that they're supposed to be seen order that they're supposed to be seen in because once I got the final memory in because once I got the final memory in because once I got the final memory of is Zelda becoming the light dragon I of is Zelda becoming the light dragon I of is Zelda becoming the light dragon I was like oh wait I should go back to the was like oh wait I should go back to the was like oh wait I should go back to the Forgotten Temple so I go back to the Forgotten Temple so I go back to the Forgotten Temple so I go back to the Forgotten Temple I see impo she opens Forgotten Temple I see impo she opens Forgotten Temple I see impo she opens the door or we open the door we see the the door or we open the door we see the the door or we open the door we see the whole chamber inside of there and I was whole chamber inside of there and I was whole chamber inside of there and I was like oh well that would have been nice like oh well that would have been nice like oh well that would have been nice to know before but you know what I've to know before but you know what I've to know before but you know what I've been even greater is if they just tell been even greater is if they just tell been even greater is if they just tell you maybe on the map itself or you don't you maybe on the map itself or you don't you maybe on the map itself or you don't have to go all the way there to figure have to go all the way there to figure have to go all the way there to figure it out you know I just thought it would it out you know I just thought it would it out you know I just thought it would be a little easier if this memory thing be a little easier if this memory thing be a little easier if this memory thing was a little more streamlined maybe they was a little more streamlined maybe they was a little more streamlined maybe they restrict you a little bit you have a restrict you a little bit you have a restrict you a little bit you have a geoglyph there but the other ones aren't geoglyph there but the other ones aren't geoglyph there but the other ones aren't available until you get the one that is available until you get the one that is available until you get the one that is currently available I don't know that's currently available I don't know that's currently available I don't know that's just a thought I had because I thought just a thought I had because I thought just a thought I had because I thought it was very silly when impo was like it was very silly when impo was like it was very silly when impo was like look at this link we made a discovery look at this link we made a discovery look at this link we made a discovery and then I tell her hey I've seen and then I tell her hey I've seen and then I tell her hey I've seen everything and she's like Oh I thought everything and she's like Oh I thought everything and she's like Oh I thought that was very silly but whatever and I that was very silly but whatever and I that was very silly but whatever and I again say the memories were great the again say the memories were great the again say the memories were great the memories were good but a lot of this memories were good but a lot of this memories were good but a lot of this stuff happening in the past like of stuff happening in the past like of stuff happening in the past like of course there is a good bit of story that course there is a good bit of story that course there is a good bit of story that happens in the present here but once happens in the present here but once happens in the present here but once again a lot of this stuff happened in again a lot of this stuff happened in again a lot of this stuff happened in the past and it happens in the past even the past and it happens in the past even the past and it happens in the past even though Zelda is sent back to the past

though Zelda is sent back to the past though Zelda is sent back to the past and is still kind of like the story is and is still kind of like the story is and is still kind of like the story is happening in the present I happening in the present I happening in the present I I kind of wish that we had more control I kind of wish that we had more control I kind of wish that we had more control in agency over stuff happening there in agency over stuff happening there in agency over stuff happening there maybe we could play as her or something maybe we could play as her or something maybe we could play as her or something like that I just wish that it was a like that I just wish that it was a like that I just wish that it was a little more interactive in that way so little more interactive in that way so little more interactive in that way so that past and present stuff was just a that past and present stuff was just a that past and present stuff was just a little bit upsetting all right that's little bit upsetting all right that's little bit upsetting all right that's besides the point besides the point besides the point um I want to talk about stuff that um I want to talk about stuff that um I want to talk about stuff that happens in the present now because I happens in the present now because I happens in the present now because I might even have a bit more criticism might even have a bit more criticism might even have a bit more criticism with this so the Champions were good or with this so the Champions were good or with this so the Champions were good or the sages I guess the sages were good the sages I guess the sages were good the sages I guess the sages were good and each of their arcs were they're and each of their arcs were they're and each of their arcs were they're they're pretty good like the lead-ups of they're pretty good like the lead-ups of they're pretty good like the lead-ups of the dungeons were good I will say my the dungeons were good I will say my the dungeons were good I will say my favorite was riju that whole lead up to favorite was riju that whole lead up to favorite was riju that whole lead up to the dungeon her whole Arc was very very the dungeon her whole Arc was very very the dungeon her whole Arc was very very enjoyable toolin was a very close second enjoyable toolin was a very close second enjoyable toolin was a very close second because I liked him but I was expecting because I liked him but I was expecting because I liked him but I was expecting his story to be a little more impactful his story to be a little more impactful his story to be a little more impactful but him being possibly and mostly for but him being possibly and mostly for but him being possibly and mostly for many people the first Sage you get and many people the first Sage you get and many people the first Sage you get and the first dungeon you go through through the first dungeon you go through through the first dungeon you go through through was kind of a more impactful and was kind of a more impactful and was kind of a more impactful and memorable experience but here's memorable experience but here's memorable experience but here's something I want to say with stuff that something I want to say with stuff that something I want to say with stuff that happens in this game in the present I happens in this game in the present I happens in this game in the present I was very upset that the Zelda team was very upset that the Zelda team was very upset that the Zelda team didn't take risks they did not take didn't take risks they did not take didn't take risks they did not take risks risks risks they didn't take risks with the story they didn't take risks with the story they didn't take risks with the story and there was no consequences in my and there was no consequences in my and there was no consequences in my opinion because I thought Ganondorf is

opinion because I thought Ganondorf is opinion because I thought Ganondorf is the most powerful that he's ever been the most powerful that he's ever been the most powerful that he's ever been these monsters are the most powerful these monsters are the most powerful these monsters are the most powerful that they've ever been Hyrule is in a that they've ever been Hyrule is in a that they've ever been Hyrule is in a state of disarray people could be like state of disarray people could be like state of disarray people could be like very affected by this people could get very affected by this people could get very affected by this people could get hurt people can die like here's a hurt people can die like here's a hurt people can die like here's a perfect example of that so King Zora perfect example of that so King Zora perfect example of that so King Zora well it's the name King Dora fan that's well it's the name King Dora fan that's well it's the name King Dora fan that's his name right I think that's his name his name right I think that's his name his name right I think that's his name basically as we saw in the last tears of basically as we saw in the last tears of basically as we saw in the last tears of the Kingdom trailer the final tears of the Kingdom trailer the final tears of the Kingdom trailer the final tears of the Kingdom trailer king durafan is not the Kingdom trailer king durafan is not the Kingdom trailer king durafan is not present in the trailer but we see sidon present in the trailer but we see sidon present in the trailer but we see sidon is wearing the crown so back before the is wearing the crown so back before the is wearing the crown so back before the game came out I was like ah sairon is game came out I was like ah sairon is game came out I was like ah sairon is wearing the crown right now that means wearing the crown right now that means wearing the crown right now that means that sairon will become king of the Zora that sairon will become king of the Zora that sairon will become king of the Zora which means that Dora fan has already which means that Dora fan has already which means that Dora fan has already died or he will die in the game but me died or he will die in the game but me died or he will die in the game but me being the sneaky person I was being the sneaky person I was being the sneaky person I was I saw the art book leaks and dorfan was I saw the art book leaks and dorfan was I saw the art book leaks and dorfan was in the art book so I was like well he in the art book so I was like well he in the art book so I was like well he probably won't die at the beginning of probably won't die at the beginning of probably won't die at the beginning of the game but during the Zora Arc we'll the game but during the Zora Arc we'll the game but during the Zora Arc we'll probably see him kick the bucket so probably see him kick the bucket so probably see him kick the bucket so that's that's good that's a very good that's that's good that's a very good that's that's good that's a very good plot point and that's not that I wanted plot point and that's not that I wanted plot point and that's not that I wanted King Dora fan to die like I hated him or King Dora fan to die like I hated him or King Dora fan to die like I hated him or anything no no I just thought that it anything no no I just thought that it anything no no I just thought that it would be a very good motivation seeing would be a very good motivation seeing would be a very good motivation seeing his father die for side on to like pull his father die for side on to like pull his father die for side on to like pull up his bootstraps and say hey I gotta be up his bootstraps and say hey I gotta be up his bootstraps and say hey I gotta be the leader that the Zoras need and not the leader that the Zoras need and not the leader that the Zoras need and not that he wasn't a leader but just having that he wasn't a leader but just having that he wasn't a leader but just having that doubt in sidon's mind would give

that doubt in sidon's mind would give that doubt in sidon's mind would give him like a pretty good Arc right well him like a pretty good Arc right well him like a pretty good Arc right well yeah none of that was there it got very yeah none of that was there it got very yeah none of that was there it got very close to feeling like King door fan was close to feeling like King door fan was close to feeling like King door fan was gonna kick the bucket with all these gonna kick the bucket with all these gonna kick the bucket with all these like with all these hints especially the like with all these hints especially the like with all these hints especially the kids in Zora's domain then playing those kids in Zora's domain then playing those kids in Zora's domain then playing those little tricks on you and them kind of little tricks on you and them kind of little tricks on you and them kind of trying to faking that whole event of trying to faking that whole event of trying to faking that whole event of kingdorfan's Downfall with this monster kingdorfan's Downfall with this monster kingdorfan's Downfall with this monster I was like dang if I find him in this I was like dang if I find him in this I was like dang if I find him in this pristine sanctum is he gonna like pristine sanctum is he gonna like pristine sanctum is he gonna like die right in front of me is he gonna die right in front of me is he gonna die right in front of me is he gonna like pass away it's gonna be sad it's like pass away it's gonna be sad it's like pass away it's gonna be sad it's gonna be a sad moment right well yeah it gonna be a sad moment right well yeah it gonna be a sad moment right well yeah it didn't happen and he comes out after you didn't happen and he comes out after you didn't happen and he comes out after you finish the water temple and he says oh finish the water temple and he says oh finish the water temple and he says oh sidon my son I think it's time for you sidon my son I think it's time for you sidon my son I think it's time for you to become king and it didn't feel to become king and it didn't feel to become king and it didn't feel rewarded it didn't feel good it didn't rewarded it didn't feel good it didn't rewarded it didn't feel good it didn't feel like necessary and I thought just feel like necessary and I thought just feel like necessary and I thought just why it honestly felt a little silly to why it honestly felt a little silly to why it honestly felt a little silly to me and again it's not that I wanted the me and again it's not that I wanted the me and again it's not that I wanted the king of the Zora to die or anything but king of the Zora to die or anything but king of the Zora to die or anything but I just thought maybe take a little more I just thought maybe take a little more I just thought maybe take a little more risks with these characters put them in risks with these characters put them in risks with these characters put them in situations you wouldn't normally put situations you wouldn't normally put situations you wouldn't normally put them in and another risk that this game them in and another risk that this game them in and another risk that this game took was at the end of the game took was at the end of the game took was at the end of the game Zelda's return back to normal from the Zelda's return back to normal from the Zelda's return back to normal from the light dragon she's turned back into light dragon she's turned back into light dragon she's turned back into Princess Zelda as we know her but she is Princess Zelda as we know her but she is Princess Zelda as we know her but she is the same old Zelda that we remember the same old Zelda that we remember the same old Zelda that we remember because of a very intense powerful because of a very intense powerful because of a very intense powerful recall done by link Sonia and Rara recall done by link Sonia and Rara recall done by link Sonia and Rara through and I thought that was a little through and I thought that was a little through and I thought that was a little silly because throughout all these

silly because throughout all these silly because throughout all these memories we are told to become a Divine memories we are told to become a Divine memories we are told to become a Divine dragon is to lose oneself to become a dragon is to lose oneself to become a dragon is to lose oneself to become a sacred dragon is to lose oneself you sacred dragon is to lose oneself you sacred dragon is to lose oneself you lose your mind you lose your sanity you lose your mind you lose your sanity you lose your mind you lose your sanity you lose what makes you who you are why lose what makes you who you are why lose what makes you who you are why continuously say that when you know continuously say that when you know continuously say that when you know you're gonna bring Zelda back and she's you're gonna bring Zelda back and she's you're gonna bring Zelda back and she's just the normal everyday Zelda that we just the normal everyday Zelda that we just the normal everyday Zelda that we know here's what I would have actually know here's what I would have actually know here's what I would have actually liked Zelda stays the light dragon and liked Zelda stays the light dragon and liked Zelda stays the light dragon and she stays up in the sky and there is she stays up in the sky and there is she stays up in the sky and there is consequences consequences consequences the kingdom still sheds tears for their the kingdom still sheds tears for their the kingdom still sheds tears for their beloved princess beloved princess beloved princess but Zelda's still watching down below but Zelda's still watching down below but Zelda's still watching down below her kingdom that she once was a part of her kingdom that she once was a part of her kingdom that she once was a part of and they have to move on from there or and they have to move on from there or and they have to move on from there or Zelda comes back and she loses her Zelda comes back and she loses her Zelda comes back and she loses her memory she doesn't remember who link is memory she doesn't remember who link is memory she doesn't remember who link is she doesn't remember who anyone is and she doesn't remember who anyone is and she doesn't remember who anyone is and you gotta start from scratch you gotta you gotta start from scratch you gotta you gotta start from scratch you gotta start from Square One why is the Zelda start from Square One why is the Zelda start from Square One why is the Zelda team so afraid to make these risks or team so afraid to make these risks or team so afraid to make these risks or take these risks of course it would kind take these risks of course it would kind take these risks of course it would kind of stir up the fan base but who cares I of stir up the fan base but who cares I of stir up the fan base but who cares I want things like that I want video game want things like that I want video game want things like that I want video game stories like that I don't want them to stories like that I don't want them to stories like that I don't want them to play safe anymore I've seen stories like play safe anymore I've seen stories like play safe anymore I've seen stories like Skyward Sword I've seen Majora's Mask Skyward Sword I've seen Majora's Mask Skyward Sword I've seen Majora's Mask Twilight Princess they've done things Twilight Princess they've done things Twilight Princess they've done things like this I want to end with some final like this I want to end with some final like this I want to end with some final grievances I had with the story and that grievances I had with the story and that grievances I had with the story and that is the continuity the continuity was is the continuity the continuity was is the continuity the continuity was weird and the pacing so let's start with weird and the pacing so let's start with weird and the pacing so let's start with the continuity no traces of the Chic the continuity no traces of the Chic the continuity no traces of the Chic attack and some character ages are a

attack and some character ages are a attack and some character ages are a little inconsistent so if this takes little inconsistent so if this takes little inconsistent so if this takes place five years later sure but place five years later sure but place five years later sure but um Madison who is Hudson and rodson's um Madison who is Hudson and rodson's um Madison who is Hudson and rodson's daughter doesn't look to be five years daughter doesn't look to be five years daughter doesn't look to be five years old or maybe she's eight years old or old or maybe she's eight years old or old or maybe she's eight years old or five years old I don't know it's a very five years old I don't know it's a very five years old I don't know it's a very confusing kind of thing going on here confusing kind of thing going on here confusing kind of thing going on here and even some of the hotel Village and even some of the hotel Village and even some of the hotel Village children don't look noticeably that much children don't look noticeably that much children don't look noticeably that much older or it just doesn't look like older or it just doesn't look like older or it just doesn't look like they've aged according to the age gap they've aged according to the age gap they've aged according to the age gap which cheers the kingdom is suggesting which cheers the kingdom is suggesting which cheers the kingdom is suggesting that's weird but the ancient Chic attack that's weird but the ancient Chic attack that's weird but the ancient Chic attack was very weird because I personally saw was very weird because I personally saw was very weird because I personally saw the shrine of Resurrection very early on the shrine of Resurrection very early on the shrine of Resurrection very early on in the game I told myself I was like oh in the game I told myself I was like oh in the game I told myself I was like oh well everyone is asking where the shika well everyone is asking where the shika well everyone is asking where the shika Tech is right well my thing is I'm just Tech is right well my thing is I'm just Tech is right well my thing is I'm just gonna wait till a little later on like a gonna wait till a little later on like a gonna wait till a little later on like a little later this month because people little later this month because people little later this month because people are still finding things in this game are still finding things in this game are still finding things in this game it's only the first week people will it's only the first week people will it's only the first week people will find out what happened to the shika Tech find out what happened to the shika Tech find out what happened to the shika Tech will find it in the depth somewhere whoa will find it in the depth somewhere whoa will find it in the depth somewhere whoa yeah it's uh three three months later we yeah it's uh three three months later we yeah it's uh three three months later we haven't figured out a proper answer to haven't figured out a proper answer to haven't figured out a proper answer to this and yeah you can say oh Ganondorf this and yeah you can say oh Ganondorf this and yeah you can say oh Ganondorf shot it all into Into the Depths and shot it all into Into the Depths and shot it all into Into the Depths and it's all destroyed or they used it for it's all destroyed or they used it for it's all destroyed or they used it for the Skyview Towers but I just I also the Skyview Towers but I just I also the Skyview Towers but I just I also think it's very weird that no one says a think it's very weird that no one says a think it's very weird that no one says a thing about it no one says anything thing about it no one says anything thing about it no one says anything about it so that's a little weird about it so that's a little weird about it so that's a little weird another thing is kakariko Village was another thing is kakariko Village was another thing is kakariko Village was very poorly utilized in my opinion you very poorly utilized in my opinion you very poorly utilized in my opinion you go to kakariko Village you're prohibited go to kakariko Village you're prohibited go to kakariko Village you're prohibited from climbing anywhere because that one from climbing anywhere because that one from climbing anywhere because that one guy is going to scream at you to not go guy is going to scream at you to not go guy is going to scream at you to not go near the ring ruins right well yeah I

near the ring ruins right well yeah I near the ring ruins right well yeah I thought to myself what if you go to thought to myself what if you go to thought to myself what if you go to kakariko Village at the beginning of the kakariko Village at the beginning of the kakariko Village at the beginning of the game there's no ring ruins maybe you do game there's no ring ruins maybe you do game there's no ring ruins maybe you do a couple Dungeons and the ring ruins a couple Dungeons and the ring ruins a couple Dungeons and the ring ruins fall you do more story beats in the main fall you do more story beats in the main fall you do more story beats in the main quest more ring ruins fall which makes quest more ring ruins fall which makes quest more ring ruins fall which makes you go over the kakariko village and you go over the kakariko village and you go over the kakariko village and check out what's happening there and check out what's happening there and check out what's happening there and then get you more invested in what's then get you more invested in what's then get you more invested in what's happening and then you're like oh maybe happening and then you're like oh maybe happening and then you're like oh maybe I shouldn't go up to these ring ruins I shouldn't go up to these ring ruins I shouldn't go up to these ring ruins because in the very beginning of the because in the very beginning of the because in the very beginning of the game I had no idea why or just what was game I had no idea why or just what was game I had no idea why or just what was the whole point of that and it's very the whole point of that and it's very the whole point of that and it's very weird and restrictive and I thought it weird and restrictive and I thought it weird and restrictive and I thought it was very silly when you go to Hyrule was very silly when you go to Hyrule was very silly when you go to Hyrule Castle you figure out puppet Zelda's Castle you figure out puppet Zelda's Castle you figure out puppet Zelda's behind everything puppet gen and Phantom behind everything puppet gen and Phantom behind everything puppet gen and Phantom again and all that right you go back to again and all that right you go back to again and all that right you go back to kakariko Village tell them everything kakariko Village tell them everything kakariko Village tell them everything and they say oh well you're good to go and they say oh well you're good to go and they say oh well you're good to go up to the ring ruins and see for it up to the ring ruins and see for it up to the ring ruins and see for it yourself I thought that was very silly yourself I thought that was very silly yourself I thought that was very silly all it took was just me telling them hey all it took was just me telling them hey all it took was just me telling them hey Zelda was an imposter I can go up to the Zelda was an imposter I can go up to the Zelda was an imposter I can go up to the ring ruins now I think that was very ring ruins now I think that was very ring ruins now I think that was very lazy of them to have done and if this lazy of them to have done and if this lazy of them to have done and if this happened more dynamically throughout the happened more dynamically throughout the happened more dynamically throughout the story I thought it would have been much story I thought it would have been much story I thought it would have been much better even the Dragon Head Island and better even the Dragon Head Island and better even the Dragon Head Island and Thunderhead Islands I wish that that Thunderhead Islands I wish that that Thunderhead Islands I wish that that area was inaccessible in the beginning area was inaccessible in the beginning area was inaccessible in the beginning of the game because if you go there you of the game because if you go there you of the game because if you go there you go straight down you get mineral you get go straight down you get mineral you get go straight down you get mineral you get the construct you get all that right the construct you get all that right the construct you get all that right construct Factory Spirit Temple and that construct Factory Spirit Temple and that construct Factory Spirit Temple and that sends you kind of straight off into the sends you kind of straight off into the sends you kind of straight off into the final boss because I have heard that final boss because I have heard that final boss because I have heard that many people did The mineru Dungeons and

many people did The mineru Dungeons and many people did The mineru Dungeons and then didn't even do the other Regional then didn't even do the other Regional then didn't even do the other Regional phenomenon and went straight into the phenomenon and went straight into the phenomenon and went straight into the final boss without doing any of the final boss without doing any of the final boss without doing any of the other dungeons any of the other memories other dungeons any of the other memories other dungeons any of the other memories or any of the other story beats and that or any of the other story beats and that or any of the other story beats and that makes me wonder how did the Zelda team makes me wonder how did the Zelda team makes me wonder how did the Zelda team want people to tackle this narrative how want people to tackle this narrative how want people to tackle this narrative how did the Zelda team want people to tackle did the Zelda team want people to tackle did the Zelda team want people to tackle this story and this game of course I this story and this game of course I this story and this game of course I think at this point they just don't think at this point they just don't think at this point they just don't really have a focus with the story but really have a focus with the story but really have a focus with the story but like also come on it's it still is all like also come on it's it still is all like also come on it's it still is all the game it's not like story was ever the game it's not like story was ever the game it's not like story was ever like an afterthought I it sort of is a like an afterthought I it sort of is a like an afterthought I it sort of is a secondary thing but it's not an secondary thing but it's not an secondary thing but it's not an afterthought and I think they could have afterthought and I think they could have afterthought and I think they could have polished things up a little bit more polished things up a little bit more polished things up a little bit more here and I'm also saying this as a here and I'm also saying this as a here and I'm also saying this as a Xenoblade fan I love the narratives of Xenoblade fan I love the narratives of Xenoblade fan I love the narratives of the Xenoblade Chronicles games I think the Xenoblade Chronicles games I think the Xenoblade Chronicles games I think the Xenoblade Chronicles Klaus Saga is the Xenoblade Chronicles Klaus Saga is the Xenoblade Chronicles Klaus Saga is probably my favorite video game probably my favorite video game probably my favorite video game narrative ever told in a game but here's narrative ever told in a game but here's narrative ever told in a game but here's the thing monolith works very closely the thing monolith works very closely the thing monolith works very closely with Nintendo right I just wish that with Nintendo right I just wish that with Nintendo right I just wish that some of the scriptwriters scenario some of the scriptwriters scenario some of the scriptwriters scenario writers and character writers and all writers and character writers and all writers and character writers and all that kind of lend their talent and that kind of lend their talent and that kind of lend their talent and support in the next Zelda game when it support in the next Zelda game when it support in the next Zelda game when it comes to pacing of the stories when it comes to pacing of the stories when it comes to pacing of the stories when it comes to maybe the impact of the story comes to maybe the impact of the story comes to maybe the impact of the story The Emotional moments and just the whole The Emotional moments and just the whole The Emotional moments and just the whole narrative structure I don't want Zelda narrative structure I don't want Zelda narrative structure I don't want Zelda to have a story like Xenoblade because I to have a story like Xenoblade because I to have a story like Xenoblade because I don't think it would really work but I don't think it would really work but I don't think it would really work but I really think that open world Zelda

really think that open world Zelda really think that open world Zelda can have a structure and design kind of can have a structure and design kind of can have a structure and design kind of like the older traditional Zelda games like the older traditional Zelda games like the older traditional Zelda games like Skyward Sword Twilight Princess like Skyward Sword Twilight Princess like Skyward Sword Twilight Princess Wind Waker but still keep that open Wind Waker but still keep that open Wind Waker but still keep that open world non-linearity to the game because world non-linearity to the game because world non-linearity to the game because aside from Zelda and Xenoblade other aside from Zelda and Xenoblade other aside from Zelda and Xenoblade other open world games have done this The open world games have done this The open world games have done this The Witcher has done this Red Dead Witcher has done this Red Dead Witcher has done this Red Dead Redemption has done this goes to Sushi Redemption has done this goes to Sushi Redemption has done this goes to Sushi must have done this Horizon zero Dawn must have done this Horizon zero Dawn must have done this Horizon zero Dawn and forbidden West have done this sure and forbidden West have done this sure and forbidden West have done this sure Zelda wants to be a little more Zelda wants to be a little more Zelda wants to be a little more non-linear and a little bit more out non-linear and a little bit more out non-linear and a little bit more out there but I think they need to come to there but I think they need to come to there but I think they need to come to terms with how they want this narrative terms with how they want this narrative terms with how they want this narrative to be in just make it a little more to be in just make it a little more to be in just make it a little more engaging you know that's just a little engaging you know that's just a little engaging you know that's just a little bit of my two cents and you guys can let bit of my two cents and you guys can let bit of my two cents and you guys can let me know in the comments below did you me know in the comments below did you me know in the comments below did you dislike the story of Tears of the dislike the story of Tears of the dislike the story of Tears of the Kingdom I wouldn't say I disliked it but Kingdom I wouldn't say I disliked it but Kingdom I wouldn't say I disliked it but I think it was a little bit of a I think it was a little bit of a I think it was a little bit of a disappointment I was hoping for things disappointment I was hoping for things disappointment I was hoping for things to be a lot better and I think there's a to be a lot better and I think there's a to be a lot better and I think there's a lot of room for improvement for the next lot of room for improvement for the next lot of room for improvement for the next Legend of Zelda game so let me know in Legend of Zelda game so let me know in Legend of Zelda game so let me know in the comments below what you thought if the comments below what you thought if the comments below what you thought if you enjoyed this video give it a like you enjoyed this video give it a like you enjoyed this video give it a like subscribe for more content like this subscribe for more content like this subscribe for more content like this this is a niche quick signing off have a this is a niche quick signing off have a this is a niche quick signing off have a great day and go play some great games great day and go play some great games great day and go play some great games today like the amazing Legend of Zelda today like the amazing Legend of Zelda today like the amazing Legend of Zelda tears of the Kingdom which I mean I tears of the Kingdom which I mean I tears of the Kingdom which I mean I trashed the story in this video but it's trashed the story in this video but it's trashed the story in this video but it's still a fantastic game so go check it still a fantastic game so go check it still a fantastic game so go check it out I'll see you guys in the next one out I'll see you guys in the next one out I'll see you guys in the next one later later later hey guys this is just quick thank you so hey guys this is just quick thank you so hey guys this is just quick thank you so much for watching that video and if you much for watching that video and if you much for watching that video and if you enjoyed it check out these two videos on enjoyed it check out these two videos on enjoyed it check out these two videos on the left and if you aren't subscribed the left and if you aren't subscribed the left and if you aren't subscribed why not hit that subscribe button on the
