The game is so amazing that it is almost as good as Botw and Oot the story is amazing it gives so much more details than the memories in botw it has way more action then botw more bosses and they are more harder the game is really amazing I don't know why the rating went down from 9. 2 to 8.4 I think the game should be rated 9.6

Very very very good

Great Hyrule Warriors game and extremely fun. The time travel plot doesn't really make it a prequal to Botw but the story is still very good none the less. I barely experienced any frame drops only tiny ones in a few parts but I expected this game to be very laggy, which it was not.

NICE

This is good prequel the artist direction and the script are fantastic and the event coincide precisely with those of B.O.T.W

Mind blowing

The game is so good I love how you can switch characters and you can upgrade weapons and characters the game is so good the map relates so much to botw because of where buildings were 100 years ago

Good, but it pulls it's punches

I thought BOTW was great. It had a lot of subtlety in the characterizations. It didn't shy away letting things be sad. AOC feels like they underestimate their audience and not giving them a happily ever after. It felt like fan fiction in that way.

Beyond that the characterization really suffers because many times something meaningful could happen someone interrupts with a joke or something. It interrupts and doesn't let some of the main characters interact in a meaningful way.

This is only the second Zelda with speaking cutscenes and it's becoming really obvious that Link just needs to be able to talk, or at least emote more.

Gameplay was way fun though!

Not a BOTW prequel

Laughably bad game with mediocre gameplay and terrible time travel retconning cheap story beats
