    Oh god, I want to experience this game for the first time again.

    I got back into video games again during lockdowns and after leaving a very soul-crushing relationship. It was probably the perfect time in my life to experience BotW.

      Have you ever played Shadow of the Collosus? If not, I think it’ll give a lot of the same vibes that you’re looking for.

        Oh yes, I love Shadow of the Collosus and Ico! Played them as a child, and played Collosus during lockdowns as well. It really can use a control update, but otherwise the game holds up really well!

      How would one go about playing it if they don’t have an Nintendo console?

        You’ll have to pirate it, then use the Ryujinx emulator.

        Or you can use CEMU to use the Wii U version of the game.

          Ah cool thanks, with some news articles recently I wasn’t sure if there were still emulators available.

              You could probably still find a fork of yuzu, if that’s what you want.

          I don’t spend a lot of time gaming. It would almost certainly be buying it to play just this game.

          Also Nintendo are kind of ducks, so I don’t really want to give them any money.
