This is an improvement to basically every single aspect of Breath of the Wild. Seriously, I don't think I'll ever be able to play BotW again after having played Tears of the Kingdom. And yet it lacks one thing:

The impact.

Okay, to be fair, this is not the game's fault. BotW just came out at a different time and a sequel like this just doesn't hit quite the same way.

And that's alright.

Because this game is still loads of fun, there are so many ways to interact with the environment, it's crazy. I'm not nearly creative enough to actually utilise Ultra Hand to its fullest potential, but I appreciate its inclusion nonetheless.

I also wish the game leaned more into the creepy spooky vibe that the very first teaser gave off. And I also wish that there would be more to do in the underground. Overall, it really is BotW, but bigger and better. At this point, it's impossible to go back. But nevertheless, this game wasn't able to give me the memories of wonder and discovery that BotW gave me.
