Metroid Prime is a rip off of Call of Duty. 30 minutes into the game and I'm like "this is Call of Duty.."

Super Smash Bros is a rip off of Street Fighter. 30 minutes into the game and I'm like "this is Street Fighter.."

Jak & Daxter is a rip off of Spyro is a rip off of Crash Bandicoot is a rip off of Mario 64 is a rip off of Super Mario World is a rip off of Pitfall

I mean, I could understand how you think it's similar, and that's just the evolution of game genres of standards for developers to meet in the creation of these games that adhere to said genres. But do you think it's a bad thing? If I had tons of fun doing something in one game, it'd be amazing, to me, to do it in another game.

Undertale is a rip off of Earthbound. I'm not even trying to add another example to above, this is something many people agree with, and the developer even said it was heavily inspired by it. But that game was great for many, and Undertale builds upon those same things and is a fascinating and original game, despite all the comparisons to it.
Here's the thing about arguing with people on gbatemp. They cling to one thing you say and completely ignore your point entirely. I didn't want to debate if Zelda ripped off assassin's creed. My point was I personally don't think the switch is worth it. One of my follow-up points was that even the systems exclusives weren't that great for me, because theyve become what every gamer expects. We cant deny botw ripped off other play styles. If I wanted to play skyrim or assassin's creed I'd buy them. If I want to play a Zelda, I don't want some other game thats just skinned as Zelda.

That's actually every forum I've observed, personally. It's just human error.

Point noted, absolutely, and I won't disagree. However, just because you did not want to debate what you said, doesn't mean you get to have it your own way. You can't post a piece of art, publicly, that you created as a commentary on a current political situation, and then subsequently tell people "don't critique this art or argue the commentary, it is what it is and you aren't allowed to tell me otherwise."

We cant deny botw ripped off other play styles. If I wanted to play skyrim or assassin's creed I'd buy them. If I want to play a Zelda, I don't want some other game thats just skinned as Zelda.
Is this your answer to my question if it's a bad thing? Just clarifying.

BOTW is the best Zelda game ever made.
