Players of The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom have expressed unanimous discontent regarding the insufficient rewards obtained from chests. The game, which was released to widespread critical acclaim, has become the highest-rated game of 2023 thus far and is regarded as one of the most highly-rated games of all time. However, despite the overwhelming praise, Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom still has its share of flaws.
One recurring critique aimed at The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom revolves around its technical performance. The game frequently experiences slowdown when dealing with high levels of activity, possibly due to the outdated Nintendo Switch hardware. In addition to occasional performance issues, fans have also voiced their dissatisfaction with the lack of valuable rewards obtained from chests.
Reddit user MedicalRaa voiced their opinion on the lackluster rewards found in many chests within Tears of the Kingdom. They suggested that chests should provide more valuable items such as arrow bundles or bomb flowers, rather than weak weapons or opals. Fans also expressed their disappointment in expending resources to clear monster camps in Tears of the Kingdom, only to receive underwhelming loot that made the effort seem unrewarding. Although this is a relatively minor issue, it appears that many Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom players share the desire for improved chest rewards. It is possible that Nintendo will consider this feedback and make adjustments to the rewards in future updates, as they have done in the past to address bugs and glitches.
However, it appears unlikely at the moment. Zelda enthusiasts will have to content themselves with the current rewards obtained from chests in the open world game, while eagerly anticipating further details on upcoming updates and the possibility of DLC. It is worth noting that as of now, no official announcement has been made regarding Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom DLC. However, given the game's unprecedented sales triumph, it would seem like a logical decision. The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is currently available exclusively for the Switch.
