A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

So I finally started it.

It's a fine game.

I'm thoroughly enjoying it.

I'm old. I'm patient.

Please, please don't mention spoilers if possible. I love to crack nuts the old fashioned way. ๐Ÿ™‚

Huh, maybe I'll like it then. But "everyone" seems to love BotW, and "everyone" seems to say "if you like BotW, you'll love TotK." So I'm skeptical.

I much preferred Skyward Sword and Link's Awakening, so I'll probably go back through the Zelda games I missed (Game Cube and Wii eras) before playing TotK. But I'll recheck the reviews again the next time I get a hankering for a Zelda game. Thanks!

Oh man, if you haven't played Wind Waker, make that one a priority.

Having beaten both the original and the HD version, the HD version is better because the original version of collecting the triforce shards towards the end of the game is a slog and the HD version cuts down on that tedium quite a bit.

I wish they'd remaster for the Switch, but maybe I'll just fire up an emulator instead.
