@uninspiredcup: the fact that you tried to minimize Zelda by saying that it's just Far Cry with swords shows me that this conversation will just be a waste of my time because you either haven't actually played it or are just trolling.

Uh... Towers? Crafting? Hubs? e.t.c..

Hell, Far Cry 2 had weapon degradation but removed it because.. guess what? I was stupid.

As much as I enjoyed Far Cry (3 & 4), it doesn't come close to what BOTW does. Far Cry is more like Horizon: Zero Dawn, rather than BOTW. And here's a video comparison showing how much BOTW outshines Horizon:

@Jag85: Don't bother arguing w/Uninspiredcup, he's pretty much trolling when it comes to people enjoying the switch and Nintendo's first party games.

Far Cry 2 is waaaaay different from 3 & 4.

@FireEmblem_Man: @uninspiredcup: It was wishful thinking that P5 would challenge BOTW's GOTY. And it's also wishful thinking that DOS2 would challenge it. The reality is that no RPG is challenging BOTW's GOTY. The only real challenge is Mario.

@Jag85: Sad but true.

A Zelda with no dungeons will take the crown..... heresy I say.

What? Why am I bought into this? I just told MBirdy to not hurt Charz feelings?

Oh yea, goes without saying it will be Zelda or Mario.

Divinity Original Sin 2 could be a greatest game in the last 20 years and it wouldn't win, the game is rigged. It's full of console centric gaming journalists. Many with a extreme bias for Nintendo and a begrudging acknowledgement of pc gaming. Heck, watching the Gamespot broadcast almost immediately the first concern was a console port - they don't want to play it on pc.

Only need to look back to the now (deserved) dead Gametrailers to see how bias the media are. Less bias and more unmitigated, unrepentant propaganda.

There is quite abit of blatant ass-kissing of Zelda as well, people unwilling to think objectively. Declaring it better even though they haven't touched Divinity Original Sin 2 to actually objectively judge it.

The main aspect people praised, freedom. Divinity does better, that's not up for debate.

Deserved I'm sure. Playing through the enhanced version of the first before I start the second. I'm amazed at what Larian added to the enhanced version. Can't wait to see what they will add to D:OS2 Enhanced Version if they do make one.

This.

It's practically a given they'll port it to PS4 as an enhanced edition. If they fix the minor things like update the journey, it's as close to perfection a game can get.

Overrated doesn't mean bad.

It's a good game, just not Divinity level.

If you think this will be a PC exclusive for long you are kidding yourself.

@SolidGame_basic: I think the game works best on PC. It's the type of game that will be most enjoyable using a mouse and keyboard, but there are talks already of PS4 and Xbox One ports. Heck, even a Switch port is possible.

Reminder: DOS II is and INDIE game. Incredible.

LMFAO, stop comparing Zelda BOTW to DOS II. DOS II is in another league if you put down your Zelda nostalgia goggles.

@knight-k: I feel like maybe the way you're approaching positive discussion about the game is probably going to do more harm than good for its reputation.

Video games aren't a zero sum game; nor is the enjoyment meant to be mutually exclusive.

It's pretty cool that pc gaming is directly comparable to Jesus.
