the story is like any Nintendo game save the princes bla bla bla, the freedom this game offers to the player is amazing I can choose my own path but this freedom comes with drawbacks, because the game doesn't know which divine beast your going to go to first so the difficulty of them very between one and other, the combat has a good amount of depth like dodging and parrying, but these are the fundamentals of any action adventure game so I'm not gonna praise them for it, the world is mostly empty and to fill the gap there are chests and useless crap here and there but, at least the world is beautiful, the shrines have simple but well executed puzzle and every shrines has a unique puzzle some people said all of the shrines look the same but that wasn't an issue for me, divine beasts are the best part of the game they provide fun puzzles and challenges bosses (sometimes) my favorite divine beast is vah naboris, the final boss is so easy and doesn't test the skills your learned on your journey, in conclusion zelda breath of the wild is really solid game that doesn't deserve 2017 game of the year.
