The Switch library sucks anyway. Besides Mario Kart and Smash Bros, I've been disappointed with every single 1st party title released on this underpowered POS. Especially Tears of the Kingdom. The game is just a repeat of BotW, which is just a watered down Minecraft clone with the Zelda logo slapped on top. It's an insult to Zelda fans.
Etc
SM 64 & Sunshine were better
Not interested in Splatoon
Don't know what "smm2" is
Not into side scrolling Mario games (besides the classics)
Too easy, therefore not fun. Also they removed combining abilities which is bullshit. Kirby 64 is better.
Smm2 = super mario maker 2
Any ways that doesnt make the switch library suck your either very nostolgiapilled and everythingnewsuckspilled or they just arent your kind of games
A little bit from both columns, I'll admit.
Arguing that BotW is a clone of Minecraft fundamentally misunderstands the distinctive design philosophies, gameplay mechanics, narrative structures, and overall objectives that separate these two games. At their core, Minecraft is a sandbox game focused on creativity, building, and exploration within a procedurally generated world, emphasizing player freedom and creativity without predefined goals. In stark contrast, BotW is a meticulously crafted action-adventure game set in a fixed, hand-designed world that prioritizes exploration, puzzle-solving, and combat within a rich narrative framework. Unlike Minecraft's open-ended gameplay, BotW unfolds within the established Legend of Zelda universe, featuring a deep narrative, complex characters, and a clear objective: to defeat Ganon and save Princess Zelda.
BotW's sophisticated combat mechanics, strategic use of weapons and abilities, and environmental puzzles offer a gameplay experience vastly different from Minecraft's straightforward combat and focus on building. The exploration in BotW is guided, enriched with side quests and story-driven objectives, contrasting with Minecraft’s emphasis on randomness and player creativity. Additionally, BotW's unique, cel-shaded art style and its innovations in game design, such as physics-based puzzle solving and dynamic weather, showcase Nintendo's commitment to revitalizing the open-world genre, setting it apart from Minecraft’s blocky, pixelated aesthetic.
While there are superficial similarities in open-world exploration and resource gathering, BotW and Minecraft cater to vastly different gaming experiences. BotW is not a Minecraft clone but a standout title in the action-adventure genre, leveraging the Zelda franchise's rich history to introduce innovative gameplay mechanics that distinguish it from not only Minecraft but other games within its genre.
"breath of the wild is minecraft" is not something i expected to hear today
