Nope, unless you consider squeaks and grunts voice acting. I guess one exception would be these games:

I can't stop watching the trailer just because I like the music so much.

That new trailer pretty much destroyed me.

In a good way.

Struck out on Master Edition and Special Edition. GameStop was such a tease too, allowing me to put Master Edition in my cart, go through the pay pal steps and everything and then right at the end tell me its not available. I hate GameStop so much.

Some people seem to be taking issue with the motorbike but I've no issue with it in this world. It's a little silly but Link's hardly driving a Harley but something made from the things in that world.

Still this DLC came out so long after the game that I can't be arsed to go back now. I just feel done with Breath of the Wild.

It's fairly ok, but felt really inconsecuential.

Basically the dlc is some costumes that add some cool stuff (like teleporting horses), 16 shrines (most of them are very good), a new "dungeon" (sweet, but short), and the motorbike.

To unlock the shrines you have to rely on a photo, and do some sort of puzzle (on the light side), race, or defeat an enemy.

The cutscenes doesn't really add anything to the story, is only a little characterization to each champion, but nothing else.

There's a new boss that was quite cool, and there's that.

The bike and the addons are neat, but after finishing the game, there's really no point in it, specially since you can warp pretty much anywhere. And after 120 shrines and the main dungeons, it feels more of the same (good) stuff, but there's just too much in the vanilla game, and I expected something more for a DLC TBH (like a real quest, a new city, or something).

I may pass. I was really hoping for a post end game that involved Zelda with reflection on fallen friends from the past as well as thought towards the path forward for Hyrule. I suppose not, though.

BOTW was a great game but it left so much to be desired. I got tired of seeing bokoblins and lisalfos everywhere. And I miss more traditional dungeons and unique bosses not Ganon themed elemental bosses. And sure it had tons of side quests but the majority were for random people. I’d have liked more in depth side quests with characters that were more fully developed.

And the DLC was a letdown. I beat it and rode the bike for all of 3-5 minutes before turning the game off. I will say the shrines in the DLC were better than most of the ones in the game.

Are you finally able to top off both your stamina AND your energy tanks? My OCD drives me crazy when I have to choose between capping one or the other.

No, of the 16 shrines only 4 give you the orbs to advance, the others are on 4 sets of 3 and get you:

A little less time to rebuff the champions habilities


Kinda useless IMO.

So you can get one more heart tank then with the four orbs you do get? I'm wondering if Nintendo will ever allow us to max out both. Probably in a future DLC pack.
