Going into this game I promised myself one thing, that no matter what I would experience this game completely blind nor see anything related to it until it was finished. Now having finished it I'm so happy I followed through with that goal because Tears of the Kingdom is undoubtedly one of the best games I've ever played by far.

What Tears of the Kingdom prides itself on isn't it's beautiful art direction, or it's expansive combat, or it's plethora of content. Instead, what Nintendo have created is not just a game but rather an entire world brimming with life and charm that I myself felt a part of. It's a world with countless secrets, beautiful scenery, compelling characters, and fearsome foes waiting for you to challenge.

Someone once said that there are 3 types of incredible games: games that are worth buying at full price and playing, games worth buying an entire console or PC upgrade to play, and games that are worth getting into the hobby of gaming to play. Tears of the Kingdom is the latter. That's why, if you somehow have the luxury knowing little to nothing about this game, I implore you to play this game blind and experience a masterpiece you'll never forget. With that being said, my only "critic" is that I'll never be able to play this game for the first time ever again.
