Are there any games that rip off Legend of Zelda well?

3D Dot Game Heroes was great

Darksiders 1, and the first 2 worlds of Darksiders 2
Darksiders.
Star Fox Adventures is on the better side of the Zelda clone spectrum.
darksiders.
it literally uses the same formula too where you get a new item in a dungeon and then have to use that item against the boss.
Okami

Adventures starts to fall apart around the 2nd half of the gameKind of like darksiders 2

Came to say this.
Okami is awesome.
>>332690027
Is this a joke? That game sucked when it came out and aged like a diaper full of yogurt.
>>332690313
This is why nobodybrings you giftsany more.

Okami rips LoZ off so well it ended up a better game
>>332689640
2D or 3D?

okami is the only game i can think off that rips off 3d zelda well, although the gameplay is arguably weaker
there are quite a few games that do 2d zelda well

Shit man, Okami has Fischer-Price gameplay most of the time.

Okami's gameplay is no doubt weaker. Combat is on par or slightly better than Zelda, I'd say, but the puzzles are brain dead easy due to Amaterasu's abilities mostly being about manipulating her environment.
>Hmm, there's an obvious huge fire/lightning thing here. I bet I have to draw a line from this to something
The game is piss easy and I never died once. It's such a fun and relaxing experience though. Played it 3 times to completion and loved every minute of it.

Darksiders, can't recommend it enough, love that series.
>>332689640
>well
Well, there are a shitton of Zelda-likes. A billion LoZ1, LttP ripoffs and when Ocarina hit, EVERYBODY was trying to make the PS1 or PS2 or Xbox's version of 3D Zelda.
The thing is that they obviously have a pretty fleshed out blueprint to work off of, so they tend to improve in one or two areas, but also fall behind in another.
Okami's the famous one, the one that'll usually come up. Its pedigree gives it fantastic combat, and the setting and visuals are gorgeous, but the dungeon design on a whole is much weaker than Zelda proper and its inkbrush input can be sometimes frustratingly obtuse.
Darksiders is a prominent recent one, when everybody would rather shit out sandboxes or Skyrim clones when it comes to action-adventures. It's competent but again, dungeon design is weak and on the whole suffers from the Assassin's Creed/Far Cry issue of way too much padding and just trying to fit in so many mechanics with trivial long-term value.
>>332689640
Kameo for the 360 is very similar to a Zelda game.
>>332689640
No, but there are similar action-adventures just as good as or even better than the best Zelda games.
If there was a legend of Zelda with insanely hard puzzles would you still get it?
>>332692538
Yes
>>332689640
I know this art!
>>332689640
Legend of Zelda it's self.

C'mon senpai.
>>332692538
yeah i can just look up solutions online
>>332692694
Its very good
>>332692795
>I can just turn on invincibility mode
>>332692538
Define extremely hard. Puzzles should at least make sense in the context of its universe and once you start making it too complex for the sake of difficulty it just becomes unintuitive and can really ruin the experience and gameflow.
Every game broken up between action segments and puzzles know this. Zelda, Resident Evil, Half-Life 2, etc.
>>332693202
No?
>>332692742
i would argue that skyward sword rips of TLOZ quite poorly
Wouldn't say rip-offs, but maybe the likes of Alundra, Illusion of Gaia, and Soulblazer?
