The<\/em> Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild<\/em><\/a> isn\u2019t just the biggest Zelda<\/em> game to date, sickness<\/a> it\u2019s also among the most challenging \u2014 and Nintendo is just fine with that. In fact, according to director Hidemaro Fujibayashi, the relatively high difficulty level is a key part of the experience.<\/p>\n

While the game was in development and still in the midst of the testing process, Fujibayashi found that a lot of players were falling off the towers scattered throughout Hyrule, and many of them were dying. A few tweaks were made to the tower design to make things a little bit easier, but the developers also decided to embrace the idea that many players will likely plummet to their death.<\/p>\n
