The downgrade was a bummer, but the end game is so great :)

Of course it's not flawless, no one has said it is. They just say the few flaws it has cannot hold it back from being a monumentally impressive game, which it is

Your entire comment is so butthurt, holy shit

Both amazing games

Link is a silent protagonist, no different than Gordon Freeman or even the protagonist of Skyrim- why was it not an issue there, but is suddenly an issue now? Moreover, Link gets a LOT of dialog via dialog choices.
NPCs? NPCs in Zelda are great, and stand out FAR more than the NPCs in Horizon. Variety of enemies? Both games have roughly equivalent numbers, the only thing being that Zelda's world is larger so the enemies seem to repeat far more than they do in Horizon. Zelda's...

@2pacalypsenow, yes, more detailed

I'm going to assume you never played the game

Yeah, agreed, although Nintendo is far more talented than Kojima

Lol, so many upvotes literally for just naming a game. Goes to show this place is swarming with Sony fans who simply can't even bear the thought of a game other than one on their own system being good.
Face it guys, Breath of the Wild is a great game that is considered a genuine evolution of the open world genre- there's a reason it's rated as high as it is. This isn't to say that Horizon isn't a wonderful game, too, because it is, and I am glad that I have played...

Breath of the Wild?

So all the 60 10/10 reviews for the game that went online at once was them being afraid?
Lol, the mental gymnastics you all will do just to deny that Zelda actually is a great fucking game

So only reviews that score it low see it for what it is? Did you think the same about Uncharted 4's 4/10 review, I wonder?

On a site full of ignorant fanboys, in a thread full of ignorant comments, you managed to stand out and be the most ignorant of them all. Bravo.

?

A far more convincing case can be made for it being a 10 than for it being a 6

'It's only an honest review if it scores it low!'

Watch this not get any traction on N4G because it hurts Sony fanboys' feelings

It's one of the greatest games ever made, a bad review wouldn't change that.
Not that Jim's review is even bad! It's a review that praises the game it's just clear that he wasn't COMPLETELY bowled over by it.
The fan reaction is embarrassing.

Well deserved

The fanboyism on this site is blatantly aware with the fact that the article that was submitted has a different headline than the more misleading one that ultimately got published- and it still got through, with so many commenters agreeing, because Sony!
