My contribution to my cherished zelda game’s 9th anniversary: Breath of the Wild
The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild opened my eyes to the world of video games, and I’ve still kept in touch with the series ever since my friend gifted me the game back in 2018.
I remember being so immersed in the world, exploring every nook and cranny of this vast version of Hyrule.
I remember hearing the distant melodies of Kass nearby, and eager to talk with him once more.
I remember connecting deeply with Princess Zelda, of her story her struggles living up to expectation for her entire kingdom.
I remember riding around Hyrule Kingdom by horseback without any fast travel, because I was so immersed by the world and imagined what it would be like to live there.
Breath of the Wild was my escapism, and my inspiration to imagine and create my own art: my own world of possibilities.
So thank you BOTW, I say thank you to the people behind the game, and thank you Satoru Iwata.
