      if you're an open-world enjoyer, then I would recommend the first one actually. It does a much better job at immersing you in the environment, and it doesn't have a million ugly sky rocks littering the landscape. totk has the better combat, bosses and enemy variety if that's more important, but the world itself feels a lot less immersive

    The charm of exploring a new world just isn't there with TotK. I feel like I'm getting ready to drop the game already, and I've only beat two dungeon. If anything, I think they've somehow managed to make bad aspect of BotW worse in TotK. The straw that really broke the camels back, for me, is how brain-dead easy the puzzles, etc. are, which is probably a symptom of the fact that any dungeon/puzzle could be your first one, since it's an open-world game. Everything just feels like one big tutorial. Where's the real game? When do all these new systems get interesting?

    I'm kind of disappointed that there's almost less fauna than before. They removed hearty durian and hearty blue snails probably for balance purposes but didn't replace them with anything. Even with caves, the sky and the depths there's not much new. They could have added I don't know sky pineapples and depth angler fish or whatever. It's the same pigs, deer, fish and crabs.

      I'm having great fun with it. I especially love the caves and the things they bring to the world, but in the end I think BOTW feels like a more focused game with elegant simplicity. TOTK shows that more isn't strictly better.

        Generally the puzzles in BotW were better IMO. "Figure out what configuration of janky crap will slide down these rails without falling off" is a shitty puzzle, and jesus does this game LOVE making you do that.

        I think it's worse than BotW except for the caves/wells. If you ported those back into BotW, it'd be the best of both worlds.

    Honestly caves and wells make a huge difference. I wouldn't want to play these games back to back but TotK fixes everything I hated about the BotW overworld.

    On the other hand, it doesn't fix lack of real dungeons, and the building shit is insufferable.

    Having access to the Sky Islands tied to the Ubisoft towers is the biggest dissapointment for me. Building hot air baloons, finding a cliff to take off from, etc. should've been the way to get up there. And the Depths... should've just scrapped them. Or, again, get rid of the Lightroot and put the onus on the player to light it up in a more permanent fashion. Beelining in the mark, occasionally throwing down lights, isn't interesting.
    The Depths on a whole feel so underbaked. It's like they generated a heightmap and called it a day.

    Not very far but I will say there is a new town. Also the weapon system is kind of in between. Your weapons are now really just hilts or styles like spear vs sword. The real weapons are in your inventory like a bokoblin horn. So you can effectively have limitless weapons. Also the underground is way cooler than I feared it would be.

    It's shit.

    It and BotW completely fricking lazy attempt at a "reboot", it's fricking stupid.
    It's story contradicts not only botw, but every other game that was ever made. You can't even call it a proper reboot either, because it insists on HEAVILY utilizing elements of story from previous games. Which all then fricking contradict TotK and BotW, Master Sword and Fi within being one major thing.
    It honest to god feels like the lead writer created a massive fanfic of old scrapped ideas and threw that up as the games story, because it's just all over the fricking place.

    How can Zelda be descendant of Rauru and Sonia, having both their powers, if those two did not have kids before dying, with no mention of a descendant in anyway fricking way, meaning the royal family bloodline shouldn’t even exist at all
    >well they have an unmentioned unseen child offscre-
    That’s still bad writing, and might as well still not exist, if it falls on the viewer to make up an explanation the game never even hints at, go frick yourself.

    How can Fi be in the blade if Skyward sword never occured in the first place, you know the game that tells the story how the Master Sword was forged and created to kill Demise, who shouldn't exist if this is a reboot.
    BotW itself suggests the Zonai were a war-like tribe of sabage warriors from Faron's jungle, yet TotK straight up retcons they were a technologically and philosophically advanced race of fricking rabbit dragons from the fricking sky.

    This shit fricking reads like a fanfic.
    BotW itself had some problems but TotK fricking amps this shit off the charts.

      LoZ is a parable, there is no canon, there is no timeline, you can have fun references but beyond that nobody cares. The developers don't care, the fans don't care, the book is a fun coffee table paper weight, it's a video game for children.

      That said, for a direct sequel the story is pretty weird. But I spent all of 1 minute noticing the retcons before I shrugged and kept playing because nobody in the right mind should ever give a shit.

      Fi’s never mentioned in game and skyward sword may still be the start of this games lore. It’s assumed gods are coming from all over to this land so it’s not farfetched rauru came down just as hylia came from wherever. The only real omitting of lore is the tree goddesses and the triforce as an actual object and not just a symbol. It’s not bad though as the games were progressively making the triforce too literal and not something sealed in sacred dimension . I can see the sequel to this saga to expand on the triforce far in the future as it was originally conceptualised as computer chips

    >only 4 new dungeons and they're short
    I wish people would stop calling them dungeons. They’re reskinned Devine Beasts, and hardly that. Glorified extended shrines with a barely there new coat of paint. There’s nothing fresh about these temples. Weaker in tone, setting and layout than even Wind Waker or Twilight Princess rehashes. The series cannot live up to 64’s VIBE (for lack of a better term). It’s fricking sad. The Zelda team is full of hacks that can’t write for shit, clearly preferring sci-fi anime to what their customers actually want: FANTASY

    I played the game because online discussion said dungeons are finally back. Unless the final area pulls a Hyrule Castle from BotW, THERE ARE NO DUNGEONS IN MODERN ZELDA. The desert temple was close, but was so so weak, especially compared to the previous game’s castle area.

    Anyways, I’m still having fun. Ignoring all the busy work and going straight to the depths.

        The focus is on going to 4ish locations to do thing to “solve” a wackass door puzzle instead of, you know, rooms full of new and unique monsters and mini-bosses. I just wanted them to be over, like the shrines. The last good dungeon in the series of Arbiter’s Grounds from TP, and even that was just rehashing ideas from ocarina (battle poes and the desert setting).

        I feel like I’m being gaslit when people call them dungeons. Are shrines dungeons? Does dungeon mean boring adventure, puzzle gameplay or dangerous Indian jones fantasy type shit? The first Zelda was all combat. Ever since Anouma took over, this series has gone to shit. He can’t play games! What happened to my action RPG?

    >the botw map is reused and not changed much
    It's ~20% different, plus all the sidequests and shrines are completely different and painstakingly handcrafted so you have to actually use the new mechanics. The sky islands and depths are also new content
    >no new towns
    Lookout Landing is new. The returning towns are all undergoing new dilemnas, and remixed. Even a few stables got converted into new things or closed down.
    >only like 8 new enemies types have been added
    and that's like 50% more enemies to the roster, nevermind how enemies like the constructs will fuse weapons on the fly or how Yiga pilot vehicles to functionally act like different enemies.
    >master sword and every weapon still breaks
    Link is an unga bunga moron, not a blacksmith. Thankfully you can craft new weapons from twigs and whatever materials you have on hand
    >>only a few new armor sets are new the rest are reused
    If it ain't broke don't fix it.
    >combat wasn't improved
    You can now make elemental arrows and have sage ghosts and vehicles to help you out.
    >eating food was fixed and is still overpowered
    Being rewarded for finding the ingredient and recipees to make strong food is a good thing.
    >loot is still garbage
    we're incentivised to use monster parts to make weapons. Loot is finally good
    >side quests are still garbage
    Sidequests are not only more involved, a lot of them have proper cutscenes now
    >the graphics are still garbage
    Graphics are better across the board except for shadows, DF went over this.
    >have to go into menus even more now
    Only if you go balls deep into the crafting mechanics, but autobuild skips a lot of the menus, plus you can sort items by most used.
    >the performance is worse than botw
    lol no, TOTK is mostly solid 900p/30fps during standard overworld traversal, which is kinda a marvel considering all the physics mechanics interacting with each other.

      It's inverted and almost unrecognizable when you actually traverse through it, not when you just look at the map You can think of it as one huge mine where you go to kill stuff for resources.
      >the sky islands look the same are there barely are any despite all the marketing directed to them
      There are at least a chain of islands for every skyview tower, and there are 15 of those. There are a few more involved ones like the Sage of spirit location
      >shrines issues weren't fixed (they still all look the same inside and out, puzzles are too short, too easy, and blessing shrines are still a thing)
      The shirnes were fixed in the sense that they're more easy to stray from the beaten path and beat creatively thanks to Link's new skillset. Being short isn't a con since there's so many of them, I'd say they don't overstay their welcome, so you can do a few before having to turn off the game.
      >only 4 new dungeons and they're short
      They're actual dungeons this time, though. Also by my count it's 5 new full fledged dungeons. The climb to the wind temple was anything but short.
      >the story is still flashbacks

    played botw, finished it, but didn't 100% because frick korok seeds. it was alright. old school OOT and majora's mask are still better. i'd give it a solid 7.5/10

    playing totk right now. some improvements, still has not surpassed old school OOT and majora's mask, but i'd give it an 8 or 8.5. actual dungeons this time, but not enough of them. weapon degradation is stupid and annoying. enemy diversity needs to be improved.

    i like the sky and i like the depths and their mechanics. i like MOST of the zonai stuff, but i also dont banjo nuts n bolts make vehicles much. map is still huge. shrines are tolerable.

    performance on yuzu is great outside of random crashes which seem to come and go, well, randomly. i dont play on handhelds. either way. i am finding totk enjoyable, but it definitely has not surpassed or even equalled OOT and majora's mask. twilight princess is a rough equal i think

          No, it really didn’t. OoT has a majority of its content outside of dungeons. All of the town mini games, the mask and trading side quests, literally every heart piece is found outside of a dungeon. MM takes this even further by making dungeons even less of a focus because of Clock Town and the Bomber’s Journal. You’re going to be spending more of your time learning about the npcs and helping them out than you are trying to get all of the great fairy pieces. Wind Waker goes further with the Great Sea which you’ll be sailing on looking for treasures or exploring new islands you find. Twilight Princess is similar to OoT but with even more stuff to do in the over world, more secrets to find and more involved npc quests. The only one I would say is close to a dungeon crawler is Skyward Sword because of how little there is to do in the world aside from the dungeons.

            Ok, but those were still only side content, and I'm not complaining that Tears of the Kingdom has a lot of that.
            The big difference is that those dungeons were actually cool and something to look forward to. They were big, had multiple floors, a mid boss, a big boss, and each came with their unique item to collect.
            The dungeons in Tears of the Kingdom feel like 4 shrines in a row with a mediocre boss fight at the end, and nothing else.

    The fact the greatest game ever has been released and snoys cant live with it is hilarious to me.

    I stopped playing consoleshit forever ago but as an outsider looking in I gotta ask: why is this a zelda game? I look at the gameplay and see this really shallow, slow puzzle game that would be forgotten about in a week if it were its own game but because its zelda its jacked off as "10/10 goty, gaming is officially saved guiz"

      playing it right the frick now, the most i've noticed so far is theres sky rocks scattered around and giant fricking holes everywhere, some of the villages have silly decorations like the rings at kakriko or the mushrooms at hateno, and a couple of caves so short they make skyrim ones look imrpessive its pretty much the same exact crap, I don't know where the frick you guys are pulling this narritive that its been radically altered from.

          I've been in the spooky underworld and its literally the fricking overworld reversed so the rivers are mountains and shit. you can literally check the underground area without a map by just bringing your map up and swapping to overworld view. like the lost woods has a wall around it instead of a moat on the overworld. theres not even anything to really do aside from hoard zonite and sometimes find ghosts with decent weapons, the fricking trees don't even give health/stamina lights
          maybe between the random bits of crap in the underground and the random bits of crap on the overworld it brings the 20% new map to a 30% instead but I don't consider reversing the existing map to be brand new content. mario kart having mirror maps doesn't double the fricking course count

              He’s right, the entire underworld is an inverted overworld. The maps
              highlights this with the mountains being deep pits in the Depths

                as I said. you guys are a bunch of schizos, everyone is having fun except you. but I guess you have a right to your subjective opinion.

    >the botw map is reused and not changed much
    objectively false, the entire world has been changed significantly with meaningful additions, not even including caves and wells
    >no new towns
    what is lookout landing?
    >only like 8 new enemies types have been added
    way more than 8, and each enemy level has visual distinctions other than color
    >master sword and every weapon still breaks
    The weapon durability system was never bad and you're a homosexual if you think it was. Fusion fixes the problem, and you can have weapons repaired and buffed by Rock Octoroks.
    >only a few new armor sets are new the rest are reused
    there is at least 40 new pieces of armor, not including armor that replaced removed armor from the game.
    >combat wasn't improved
    Fusion, ultrahand, and recall adds a whole new layer of shit you can use in your arsenal to take enemies down in fun ways. Or you could just have zero fun and do it the hard way because you're too stubborn to experiment and git guf
    >eating food was fixed and is still overpowered
    Wasn't, you're right though I still hate this
    >loot is still garbage
    every material has purpose for cooking, fusion, or used as trading goods
    >side quests are still garbage
    side quests have a lot more depth now and side adventures fulfill a need for side story content.
    >the graphics are still garbage
    BOTW had a beautiful art style and this is still a beautiful art style. Games don't have to be hyperrealistic western goyslop ln 20 years people will look at this game and still say it's beautiful

      >the performance is worse than botw
      game dips sometimes, so did launch BOTW and improvements have already been made in patches. Not ideal but the game typically corrects its framreate problems quickly
      >the underground looks the same is even emptier than botw's map
      The underground is a giant mining area for resources, filled with bosses, and has 2 of the games dungeons in it along with a lot of the best loot in the game. It's massive but it's filled with shit to do. BOTW was also never empty that was a moronic criticism then, and now.
      >the sky islands look the same are there barely are any despite all the marketing directed to them
      the sky islands look small from an overhead view but the grand majority are layered islands with a ton of verticality
      >shrines issues weren't fixed (they still all look the same inside and out, puzzles are too short, too easy, and blessing shrines are still a thing)
      The shrines look more visually appealing, the puzzles are more fun, and the blessing shrines weren't the problem, the 20 tests of strength were, which has been changed to be unique enemy challenges using a certain set of tools at your disposal and tutorial shrines.
      >only 4 new dungeons and they're short
      5, dungeons are at least an hour a piece which is normal for Zelda dungeons, some longer.
      >the story is still flashbacks
      It's flashbacks that directly correlate with the present day and impacts the narrative more than in BOTW, but even if I agreed with you (I don't), story is the least important aspect of a video game over good gameplay

      You didn't play the game. You will never be a woman. And you do it for free. have a nice day and do the world a favor. Verification not required

    I don't know. I'm not feeling it. The new building mechanic is a lot of fun to mess around with, and offers a lot of possibilities, and I also like that they fleshed out the world a bit with more NPCs and side quests.
    But what about the core of the game that really matters? Combat and puzzles? Those shrines haven't been imrproved in the least, and are still braindead and underwhelming. There's no cool bosses, the enemy variety has somewhat improved but is still lackluster at the end of the day, and the Temples are a fricking joke.
    It's all shine, no substance. Everything about the game is good, but when it comes to the stuff that really matters it falls flat.

    >Give Link a robot arm with magnet powers
    >Game features floating islands and ascending/descending as a heavily reused motif both in themes and gameplay
    >Combat continues to revolve around stunlocking enemies until their ridiculous health bars hit zero with no attack variation to keep things interesting
    It would have never been easier to justify giving Link a move like snatcher or a launcher and air combos to add some spice to the combat but instead its completely unchanged from the original.
