History Awesome / TheLegendOfZeldaBreathOfTheWild

* ''Breath of the Wild'' is already considered one of the best video games ''ever.'' If you look at Wiki/TheOtherWiki's page [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_video_games_considered_the_best list of video games considered the best]] based off of critical acclaim, Breath of the Wild is already third with an average score of 98, behind only ''VideoGame/GrandTheftAutoIV'' and fellow ''Zelda'' game, ''VideoGame/OcarinaOfTime''.

** Princess Zelda also went to defeat Ganon on her own after the deaths of Link and the other Champions, managing to hold him back for ''a century''.

** While Revali practices at his shooting range and works out the kinks in his own power, Revali's Gale (which he is having trouble controlling), Princess Zelda approaches him and asks that he be the one to pilot Divine Beast Vah Medoh. He agrees, but decides to show off Revali's Gale at that very moment, executing it perfectly, then using his dive and insane accuracy to fire three bomb arrows at once and destroying three targets, before zipping around the entire range and obliterating every target within with the speed and destructive power of a modern-day fighter jet, before landing. He may be an arrogant prick at times, but his skill is without question.

* That the dev team had ''so many'' ideas for DLC content for this game that they decided, the heck with it, ''[[RefittedForSequel let's make a sequel instead.]]''

* Any attempted world record speedrun of ''BotW'' is going to involve catching sick air while shield-surfing off of a Bokoblin's head, dashing through Hyrule Castle while Ganon's minions have barely a clue as to what's going on, and beating Calamity Ganon and his blighted offspring to death while dressed in nothing but the underwear Link woke up in.

* There are also players who have cleared all levels of Trial of the Sword [[HarderThanHard with only]] ''[[SelfImposedChallenge three hearts]]''! While others have managed to speedrun it [[NoDamageRun without being hit]], on Master Mode.

* [[CowardlyLion Yunobo]] deserves some props for his role in disabling Divine Beast Vah Rudania, which involves being launched out of a cannon at high velocity and hittin' the thing ''hard'' with Daruk's Protection. He has no reservations about doing so, and his own dialogue suggests that he's been doing this with the Chief long before Link arrived on Death Mountain. Most of the other Divine Beast battles have other characters playing the role of support to give Link a chance to deal damage. But with Vah Rudania, it winds up being the other way around. Your job is only to defeat enemies and disable the sentries so that ''Yunobo'' can get in close and attack. In the words of Daruk himself, "Still goin' strong, indeed!"

* The closing seconds of the trailer features two {{freeze frame bonus}}es as Link staggers to his feet as embers drift ominously through the air. One is that Zelda is there to catch him as he falls backwards. The second is that he's wielding the rusted Master Sword. Between the image accompanied and king's plea, [[SaveThePrincess "You must save her... my daughter..."]] it [[CentralTheme may perfectly represent the soul of the entire series.]]

** On the subject of cool mounts, there's a random event where an area will be inhabited with glowing blue animals that drop rupees when shot with arrows. One of the animals is a horse-like creature called the Lord of the Mountain, and just like any other horse, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Bodhs5R8Vw you can ride it!]] It has the best stats out of all the horses in the entire game. Sadly, the Lord of the Mountain can't be registered, and it vanishes a few seconds after you inevitably dismount.

** In another, the aftermath of a battle is shown although the focus of the memory is that the increase in monsters means that Ganon might soon return, one can't help but notice that ''there were about a dozen Bokoblin and Moblin bodies, and several '''[[BossInMooksClothing Lynel bodies]]''' scattered about, with the implication that Link was vastly outnumbered... and ''won''.

*** Not only this, but this is doubly awesome when you consider that knights historically were trained as Pages at age 6, and became Squires at age 6. You only became a knight when performing an insanely heroic and noble deed, or reaching age 21. The fact Link even attained knighthood at age 17 is already impressive. Add in the fact that this not only establishes Link as TheHero, but his insane combat prowess. And he did this all despite being technically a Squire or Knight-In-Training! This deed was so heroic and noble that the KING HIMSELF thought of him as a knight worthy enough to protect royalty, his very own daughter! A feat most knights in reality didn't achieve. Yeah, this incarnation of Link is THAT awesome!

* The fact that your attack can be so ferocious in your attacks, ''guardians'' will start panicking and wildfire their laser to try and get you to back off.
