"Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery."
Zelda Breath of the Wild is one of the best games I've ever played, no wonder companies are running with the concept and developing their own games with it. It's a bit derivative when only a 1:1 clone comes out of it, but that's how thing evolve. In gaming just take Space Invaders, there wouldn't be a Galaga if people had that mindset. For every Doom there's a Rise of the Triad. Some games are just genre inspiring. And that's how things worked for 100s of years. Classical componists built on each others concepts, famous painters got inspirations from painters before them, you can't invent something new when you don't copy the old. While this games is still stuck in the copy phase there's the potential to develop great things from it. And if it's just being used as an example how not to clone Breath of the Wild.
I'm looking forward to the reviews.
