A whole lot can be said about Breath of the Wild. It is rather fitting that its' "ending" feels so anti-climactic. Because once you have beaten all 4 Divine Beasts, gotten near max stamina and hearts the final fight is a push over. Not to mention I just did Twilight Princess' final showdown and that makes this one feel even less cool. All this being said is to say Breath of the Wild isn't about its story and main conflict. As much as I wish it was a very focused story driven experience it is not. It is all about the figurative Breath of the Wild.

Since this game's release in 2017 the main things I remember about it are my own memories and experiences, not the hand made set pieces created by the developers. I think this says alot about this game and the beauty of it. It may lack what I really want to see in a Zelda game but I cannot deny the fact that I really have enjoyed my time with this title since release.

I am very curious for what TotK will bring to the table both game-play and story wise, its only a few short hours away....
