There are cut scenes with other characters and they can kind of drag on. It does, however, demolish the feeling of place and vulnerability provided by Breath of the Wild. For me personally I think it's sometimes annoying and sometimes kind of clever (especially with some of the 'unreliable narrator' elements and their bickering) though the thick accents are not great. I can see how some people would find it obnoxious. BOTW had characters and conversations, but this game famously has Zeus and Prometheus narrating what's going on. What has been added to the BOTW formula is a bunch of chatting. You can pick some things up and throw them and you can chop down trees, but at least in the starting area it doesn't seem like there are complex fire physics going on or any of that.

I am not deep enough to know how many physics tricks can be pulled off but so far it doesn't seem nearly as complex as BOTW. There are just pickups and currencies in the world. As far as I can tell there's no cooking system, which may seem like a small thing but did a lot to make BOTW's world feel like a living, breathing, thing. On the other hand the game is not nearly as aesthetically advanced or as mechanically intricate as BOTW. They're not even trying to hide anything here. One of the first things you get are a pair of bracers that let you lift heavy objects, as well as pull them towards yourself at range, and you are immediately tasked with using them to manipulate a bunch of rolling balls that fit into BOTW style crater switches. The game is a very obvious Breath of the Wild clone, from the climbing and gliding to the puzzle structure and shrines.

It's solidly made but profoundly uninspired. I've only played about an hour and a half so far, but my overall impressions are.mixed to good.

Impressions and reviews were somewhat mixed but generally favorable, and I am probably a little too eager to have something to play on my new Series X so I picked up a late pre-order despite reservations.

Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild is my favorite game, so when I found out there was going to be an Ubiclone of it I was pretty intrigued.
