Non biased review: Holy this page is full of terrible user reviews, some saying the game is just a dlc and others with the stupidest of complaints. First of all yes the game reuses the same surface map, although it’s not the same, for example all of the lava in death mountain is gone for the most part, and none of the towers and shrines from the previous game are there anymore. Tears of the kingdom map is easily DOUBLE the size of breath of the wild’s map, the game has new caves, sky islands, and a completely new map called the depths which goes through all the underground of hyrule, so no it’s not just the same map, it’s double the size. The gameplay is not the same, all of the old abilities have been replaced with new ones that are more useful and fun to use such as the ultra hand which allows you to build all sorts of things, or a new ability that allows you to combine items which can be used to make a flamethrower spear. The towers and shrines do return however, but the shrines are a lot more fun to complete and doesn’t feel much like a chore anymore, with the new abilities the game allows you to complete the puzzles in multiple creative ways and it’s not as repetitive like in Breath of the wild. You no longer have to climb all the towers to unlock the map, instead it’s a mini side quest that takes around a minute or 2 to complete, and once you’ve done it the tower launches you high in the air which is useful to explore the sky islands. The dungeons are really well made and fun to explore, they are not like the traditional Zelda dungeons but me and my friend spent a couple hours taking turns solving the puzzles of the fire temple, and that convinced him to buy the game, it was a blast, although you still have to activate terminals to fight the boss (By the way the bosses are way better than botw). This game is so fun to play, and it’s definitely a worthy sequel of BOTW that improves in most of the aspects from the previous game. Only real complaint is the frame rate, but that’s not a game issue, it’s a switch issue. Tears of the kingdom is not a dlc, it’s a SEQUEL, a stand alone Zelda title and a must play.

First things first, This game is not like THPS or SKATE, This game is an actual simulator of skateboarding, Made for skaters BY skaters, It's simply a game that might just not be for everyone, The rating of the game depends on the person who plays it, You can either love it or hate it, And if you hate it it doesn't mean the game is bad, It just means it is not for you, I agree the game needs several updates and that it is not quite finished yet but it is still a pretty solid game. And It also doesn't deserve the hate that it's getting since devs already confirmed future updates to make the game even better.

Game is really underrated, It's clear this game is not SKATE 3 or 4, This game it's is own thing, However there are a lot of stuff that HAS to be fixed and added in order to make this game really good, Hope more updates come out soon
