The Legend of Zelda: Breath if the Wild’s story is set 100 years after the reawakening of Calamity Ganon. Calamity Ganon is the main boss of the entire game in which players can fight him right after the tutorial or until they completed everything else in the game that they can do.

The beginning of Breath of the Wild is very reminiscent of the very first Legend of Zelda game with Link coming out of a cave into a vast world; just more 3D than previously. Once Link has finished the Great Plateau region, the tutorial region, The Old Man that Link has encountered will tell the tale of what happened 10000 years ago.

The tale that the Old Man tells Link is that Calamity Ganon rises every so often and every time Ganon rises, the embodiment of the Goddess and a hero wielding the Sword that Seals the Darkness will also awaken to be there to seal Ganon away once again. The ancient race of the Sheikah's knew of this and decided to take action to help the hero in his battle to re-seal Ganon away.

To do this the Sheikah's built four Divine Beasts to weaken Ganon along with hundreds of Guardians. The Guardians role in the battle was to protect the embodiment of the Goddess and the hero while they fight Ganon. However, things did not go according to plan when Calamity Ganon awoke and instead Ganon seized control over all the Guardians and sent four different blight versions of himself to each of the four villages to gain control of the Divine Beast.

Each village had their own champion that will control the Divine Beast when the time came for them to take action. The villages are as follows: Zora's Domain with Divine Beast Vah Ruta an Elephant, Goron City with Divine Beast Vah Rudania a Lizard, Gerudo Town with Divine Beast Vah Naboris a Camel, and Rito Village with Divine Beast Vah Medoh an Eagle.
Each village has their own type of element that is associated with them and the Blight Ganon's each take a form or trait of that element. The Ganon's are as follows: Waterblight Ganon which has control over Vah Ruta, Fireblight Ganon which has control over Vah Rudania, Stormblight Ganon which has control over Vah Naboris, and Windblight Ganon which has control over Vah Medoh.

That is the basic premises of Breath of the Wild without spoiling most things that are not given away as soon as completing the Great Plateau or by letting you figure out what exactly happened to Link 100 years ago by doing all the memories.

Side Quests and Korok Seeds

Image
There will be a point in the game when you have nothing left to do because you have done all the shrines and defeated Calamity Ganon. Well like most games, there are side quests! There is a total of 76 side quests from just getting the game. The DLC (Downloadable Content) adds a lot more side quests. These quests are optional, hence why they are called side quests. Even though side quests are in fact optional, early game they can be a source of Rupees, the game currency. These side quests can be found anywhere in the game; to the top of the tallest mountain, and to the bottom of the deepest gorge. Finding all of the side quests can be a annoying at first but the majority of the side quests are at villages or at stables, with a few scattered here and there. There are three main things that a side quests will make you do: collect something for them, kill something for them, or complete a task for them. There may be a few exceptions but most side quests are about that. Once you have com

Memories and Armor

Enemies get progressively harder as you progress through the game in Breath of the Wild. Silver being the max in normal mode and gold in master mode. This means that enemies get harder to kill and deal more damage to kill you. This can be countered by getting more hearts from completing shrines, but there is another way to take more damage. This is from armor. Armor can be collected from shrines, chests, quests, or can be brought from certain shop NPCs. Armor give defenses which decreases the damage of the weapon hitting you. Each  piece of armor may give an attribute like swim speed up or climb speed up. Armors can also be upgraded at a Great Fairy Fountain. Upgraded armor gives more defense along at level two, some sets can give a set bonus if the other set pieces are at level two. There are four Great Fairy Fountains in the world that the player can find. Great Fairy Fountains are unlocked by spending Rupees. Each time one is unlocked the price is increased. The unlocking pri

Gerudo Town and Divine Beast Vah Naboris

Image
Gerudo Town can be easy to get to if the player has both Rupees and a way to keep cool if traveling during the day. The main problem that the player will get is trying to get into Gerudo Town when they are right outside its walls. This is because Gerudo Town is an all Vai town, or all-female town, which does not allow Voe, males, to enter it. Link being a male as he is cannot enter Gerudo Town as he is currently. As you try finding a way inside the town you may notice someone standing near the main entrance to Gerudo Town. He basically says that he is looking for a man who can sneak inside Gerudo Town so that he too can get inside. With a little more detective skills under Link's belt, you find the man who sells you the gear you need to get inside of Gerudo Town. Once inside of Gerudo Town you have the fun task of fighting the Yiga Clan. The Yiga Clan is a very hard stealth-like area that requires you to not get caught or be faced off against instant-killing enemies. There are so
