Hello and welcome to the IGN UK podcast. I'm Alex and this is the culmination of what?

Seven years? No. Six years of Nintendo's hard work because finally we've all got our hands

on tears of the kingdom and our man. What a game. What a game. Joining me to talk about,

obviously this monumental occasion is Matt Jones. Genuinely painful that we have to record this

instead of dedicating more time to playing it. It's rare that I feel like that, but it is what it is.

Well this is, I've not been very prepared for this podcast because I was literally playing the game

right up until the last day. He was plugged in. We're getting a lot of people to do things

at the last minute. It's just gamers. What do you mean? I'm always on time and exactly

expecting you to be. Maybe I mean I'm prepared then. That's not even better. That sounds worse.

Have they just walked into your performance review? Yeah, I'm going to absolutely definitely do.

It's just cheap. It's just cheap gags. That's all great. So sorry Matt, you were going to say

something. Yeah, we're getting a lot of messages on the IGN Instagram about how much we're posting

about tears of the kingdom because we're doing several places every day. It's like, sorry, it's a

really good game. Sorry. It's almost like it's the most important game that's been released

at the moment. Yeah. Well, if we weren't talking about tears of the kingdom, what would we be talking

about? Crisps. Well, fast ten as it turns out because Matt, you're going to talk about that

later in the podcast and we've got a little bit of feedback, but most of it is going to be about

tears of the kingdom. And what are your initial thoughts? Who wants to go first? Jesse,

what are your initial thoughts of the game? It's weird. I really, really enjoyed.

How far in are you? I've put in a lot of hours. I have put in a lot of hours. I've completed

a couple dungeons, but I wouldn't say I'm asking you're as close to finishing tears of the kingdom

as you really want to be at any given point because you can always just go in for the final boss
