Breath of the Wild already has a hidden Experience point system built into it that is responsible for leveling up the enemies and weapons...but what if this was enhanced to work for the player as well?? I hope you guys enjoy this overview to the Breath of the Wild RPG project!!

This overhaul pairs very well with the Weapon durability mod you can see being used in the video!!

    A few additional notes about the mod: 1) Monster Chests now respawn under blood moons, which makes it possible to get additional orbs post doing all the shrines 2) Kiltons shop now contains all limited weapons in the game (Kite shield, forest dweller sword, etc) so you’re still able to get them even if all the base ones break! 3) In a lot of RPG’s, you can wait to level up your character right when you hit low health to get a full hp restore. This can be fully replicated in this mod, as you only level up when you bring up the visualizer!! (Heart container restores all health, Stamina vessel restores all stamina) Let me know if you have any other questions about it, and I hope you enjoy!! :)

    Thanks a lot for everything you did, it was such a blast to work with you on this !! Hope everyone will enjoy, have fun, great vid :)
  • This makes BotW completely different, and I love it! Thanks for sharing about this Croton. I'm glad I know about it now.
  • I’d love to see a playthrough of this, probably good for a botw revisit post totk.
  • @isaacwest9069
    Wow this looks like a lot of fun. I already play BOTW a bunch, but this is like a totally different experience!
  • This looks so cool! Probably not something I'd play myself, as I tend to focus more on exploration and less on combat, but I'd be fascinated to watch you stream it someday.
  • @walnutinc961
    I think it would be cool if the hero of the wild set defend against most elements. Not fully, so it wouldn’t completely outshine all the other environmental protection, but enough to make it worth finding all 120 shrines.

    Everyday waiting until may is pure agony, your content makes the wait more bearable, and worse at the same time. Thank you so much, love your content :)
  • This is such a fun idea! I won't be playing it myself but I can't wait to see others play it
  • @wildchild69
    LOVE the videos Croton! Keep it up 🫶🫶 Can’t wait for the TOTK vids, they will be insaneee
  • Can I just say thanks for always getting straight to the point in the video intros? It’s so refreshing to not have to listen to two minutes of “botw is a masterful game enjoyed by millions of people around the world blah blah blah…” before getting to the actual video.
  • I hope you do a playthrough with this, it's such a cool mod and I'd love to see you really show off all it could do!
  • This is a very fun idea. Another great video about making Breath of the Wild something it isn’t 😅
  • Love the vid please do a run on this. I am ready for TOTK but few things to do in BOTW.
  • @bvoyelr
    Looks really cool. I'm wondering if levelling right there on the spot was the best call. On the one hand it lends legitimacy to the levelling system -- "this is an important moment!" -- but on the other hand, being interrupted with a levelup in the middle of a fight or something seems weird. Personally, I think I'd have done the Oblivion thing. "You feel stronger. Go pray at a Goddess Statue to receive a blessing." Then when you do, you can then cash in your levels. But it could go either way. Now I just need to learn how to play a modded version of Breath of the Wild...
  • @ricm6918
    I love your videos im subbed and you are my fav youtuber and you inspired me to play again and get amiibos
  • I like this idea a lot and it would be cool if it was in tears of the kingdom. I know its not possible modding but maybe instead of a shop its a skill tree that lets you use spirit orbs to basically upgrade link like "Sword damage +10%", "Stamina lose from sprinting decreased", or "Gliding speed increased by 25%". Sounds cool to me.
  • this is literally what i wanted from botw thx for the showcase
  • Huh I’m definitely intrigued. I guess I’ll have to find out how to install it!
