Last year, I played The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild for the Wii U. In the beginning of the game, you are woken up by the princess after a hundred years slumber. You learn about her desperate fight against Calamity Ganon, that has been going on for all these years, and how she cannot hold him back much longer. You receive your first and primary quest named Destroy Ganon. When you leave the cave, you can even see the castle shrouded in menacing purple. And you can indeed go there and die like most speedrunners on their first try. But usually you go on a journey across the land to become stronger first and learn the urgency of fishing.
