After years of hearing that The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild was one of the greatest games ever made, I finally sat down and played it for myself.
Coming back to gaming after nearly 20 years away means there are a LOT of major games I completely missed—and Breath of the Wild was one of the biggest.
In this episode of The Overwhelmed Gamer Podcast , I talk about my experience exploring Hyrule for the first time, what surprised me, what frustrated me, and whether all those years of hype were actually justified.

🎮 Let me know: What did you think of Breath of the Wild? Where does it rank among your favorite Zelda games?
