    Oh god, I want to experience this game for the first time again.

    I got back into video games again during lockdowns and after leaving a very soul-crushing relationship. It was probably the perfect time in my life to experience BotW.

      How would one go about playing it if they don’t have an Nintendo console?

          I don’t spend a lot of time gaming. It would almost certainly be buying it to play just this game.

          Also Nintendo are kind of ducks, so I don’t really want to give them any money.

            You could buy a used Switch and install a modchip to play pirated games.

            But yeah, not really worth it if you only want to play 1 specific game and already have a pc powerful enough for emulating it

              You can also buy one of the older switch consoles from 2018 which are not patched and you can inject a payload via rcm mode.

                Yeah, but that’s a horrible idea in today’s world. You’ll pay a bigger price premium for an old rcm exploitable switch, than you will pay for just installing a modchip in a patched switch. Not to mention the significantly worse overclocking potential and battery life of the 2018 switch compared to the newer Mariko and OLED models

      Have you ever played Shadow of the Collosus? If not, I think it’ll give a lot of the same vibes that you’re looking for.
