About four years ago I uploaded a video called “Why Your Weapons Break in the Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild”. In this video I argued that the weapon durability system in Breath of the Wild is actually a genius design choice, that allowed Nintendo to redefine how open world games are designed. Since then, I completely changed my opinion about the Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild’s brittle weapons.
So with Breath of the Wild’s sequel right around the corner I thought it might be time to revisit this topic. Today we are going to embark on a journey! We are going to take a look back at the old argument that I made four years and we are going to accuse my young alter ego of completely missing the point about Breath of the Wild’s weapons!
