Reading that the Zelda team has been playing Red Dead Redemption is very worrying. I can't think of any great ideas from that game they should borrow.

if anything RDR2 borrowed heavily from BOTW...I’m not sure if I’m missing your point

Please no

I don't want to answer for him, but imho RDR2 has a lot of empty micro-gameplay. Most of what you do isn't a part of a cohesive thought-out system, it's rather an accumulation of random tasks-obstacles for the sake of "realism". Not what I want in a sequel for Breath of the Wild

Never played RDR2. This sounds bad though... Now, if they were playing the Witcher 3....

Let’s stay on topic here There’s room for both games to exist, whether you liked it or got bad taste not.

Are there elements of RDR2 that could improve a BTW sequel? If so, what are they?

Off the top of my head, no. But the only things they really have in common are horses and open world. Two entirely different games. But Nintendo is abstract enough to come up with some random thing you wouldn’t think about from a game and make a full blown mechanic out of it tho.

I have enough faith in Aonuma that he could say he played Solitaire and got inspiration for the next Zelda, and I would still be hopeful

that’s what I love about this game... @ the risk of sounding extremely corny the only limit to this game is your imagination but I love that there’s no one way to accomplish a task...that was dope

 

[old pig]

...and OT but the OP name cracks me up every time I see it lmao

...but where the hell are the dungeons, boss fights, story, and items/weapons that get you to other areas of the game?

 

[Auger]

That's pretty impressive if you know how hard that is to accomplish
