Daily Debate: Should Link Have a House in the Sky Region in Breath of the Wild 2?
Posted on August 30 2021 by Michaela El-Ters
I have so many fond memories of playing Breath of the Wild for the first time. Some memories, like stepping out onto the Great Plateau and exploring a Divine Beast for the first time, are probably a given for a lot of players. But I also have a lot of smaller, simpler memories of the game that don’t involve the story or characters at all. As soon as I unlocked the sidequest for Link’s House, I was obsessed with completing it as quickly as possible. Instead of progressing the story or completing more Shrines, I spent hours collecting wood and materials Bolson could use to build Link’s house and add upgrades. I adore the end result, too – a small, quaint, and charming little home sparsely decorated is the perfect fit for Link.
With the latest trailer of Breath of the Wild 2, we got more of a taste of the region, particularly the Sky region. It looks absolutely amazing! And one of the first thoughts I had was, “It would be so cool if we could build a second home for Link in the sky.” Clearly, I have my priorities straight. I would love to see how Hylians would interact with the sky region — would they try to reclaim it? Are some Hylians stranded and separated from their families, so they have to build a temporary residence in the meantime? Would they want to explore or use it as a safe haven? Will Hyrule become so unsafe that they would have to retreat to the skies? It would be fun to explore that in some way.
What do you think? Should Link have a second home built in the sky region in Breath of the Wild 2? Let us know in the comments!
