Hello and welcome to Nintendo Voice Chat presents Talk of the Kingdom. I still can't believe we get to call it that. I'm your host Brian

Altano along with my incredible crew of Zelda obsessives cat Bailey, parish Nider, Seth Macy and Brendan Graber. Hi everybody. Hello.

Brian. Alright, so it's the game is out. We've been playing it for a week. I can't wait to get into our stories. I assume we all love it. That's why we're here, right? No haters here today.

This weekend, here's the kingdom. We're breaking down the best and most important side quests that you should definitely do first. Then we're taking a look at the craziest most innovative fan inventions that people are making. Then we'll be talking about how people are torturing corrocks and just how we feel about that. I'm mixed on it. Plus we'll be talking about a mevo integration with the worlds.

Most obsessed amoevo collector parish Nider, but first, tears of the kingdom has been out for a week. How's everybody feeling about it? I personally will say to kick things off that how dare this show pull me away from playing the game today.

Oh, yeah, I had this something in your ear.

Sad of me. That's the biggest amoevo you could have pulled from her. I guess that made him a guardian. Yeah, the guardian. The illusion was broken by that cat. Let's start with you. You know, you've been a Zelda fan your entire life. How how how is this first week been for you?

My entire life. Okay, I'm going to say that this game definitely has its hooks in me. Okay, and I'm excited to be playing it on the rig. I'm frankly, I'm a little upset that I'm not playing it right now. See having said that.

Uh-oh having said that we go. Let's put some respect and breath of the wild's name. Let's start calling it a beta for tears of the kingdom. I don't think that's it at all. I think it's a wildly different game.

Yeah, the kingdom is a giant toy box. And I have to say I didn't grow up with Minecraft and and I didn't like shop class.

In that respect, like I sort of feel like I'm not using all of the things that they put into the maximum extent. I don't like I tend to walk past all of the things that I can use to build vehicles. I'm not that excited to do it.

I'm excited to play it in a fairly straightforward manner. I do like the new abilities. They're very cool. I think that breath of the wild had more of an atmosphere to it. I mean, you were surviving in a desolated world.

There were the guardians that were chasing you around. And yes, it was more limited, but I think that there is something to be said for be more limited rather than going for like going crazy. This game is gigantic. I cannot believe it.

It's ridiculous. And so I mean, I'm enjoying it on its own terms. Right.

And I think it's really good. And I like the darkness to it. And the sheer scope just constantly has me in awe. But I also think it's a very different game. And so I'm thinking of it in those terms. And I think it says a lot about tears that kingdom that can win me over.

And though it's core conceit was not my favorite thing in a video game.

Fair. Yeah. I mean, there is a heavy emphasis on building stuff. And if that's not something you want to do or something that Paris slowly introducing me both the show on the one.

What are you talking about? And he owns all of them. So I'm worried how crowded this desk is going to collapse under the weight of of plastic, scannable toys by the end of this episode.

I'm in the same boat. I love the game. But I yeah, I am going by those little, you know, I key shops that are spread all over the place.

Because I know that like I could spend 20 minutes building a car that I'll that will explode or I can just run.

So. But yeah, we'll get into some of the crazier fan creations later on.

How's your first week with the game been? Oh, man, I didn't get to play it before launch. I saw somebody play it and it was honestly tortured to have to wait till launch day.
