    I would say look at the difference between LttP, OoT, wind waker, twilight princess, skyward sword, and botw. Then look at the difference between botw and totk.

    The former has every game feeling like a unique thing, I grew up being excited for this new world. Totk isn’t that.

    I know people love this game, yourself included. But keeping perspective is important too, or else you end up with Nintendoa arogant side where they get stuck making the same core experience over and over. You want nintendos interesting new experiences side.

      I’d day TotK is to BotW what MM was to OoT.

      Lots of the same assets and gameplay/animations, completely different feel.

      That’s fair, but again these people have proven they know what they’re doing. Criticising this dev team after a misstep I can get, criticising them in the light of the two games they’ve just delivered just seems like talking for the sake of talking. I grew up with MM being a direct sequel to OoT, I’m fine with building on an already great game. I doubt they’ll let the series stagnate.

        I’m worried, given statements they have made, that they will. I fully expect that their next game will be botw 3, same map, new coat of paint for switch 2.

        It’s not worth complaining about this until it actually happens, of course, I’m just actively worried that we’ve lost something
