I've never been so scared of the ocean. But, once you get spooked by a reaper leviathan a couple of times, it definitely loses some of the scare factor and just becomes another survival "horror" game. Still pretty fun though.
I mean, it's more Animal Crossing. My only criticism is that the tools breaking was the worst part of Breath of the Wild and they brought it here for some reason. Otherwise it's pretty much perfect.
Come on Todd, this is your big new IP? Yikes... It's just so boring and empty. Why the heck can't I just fly from planet to planet? No Man's Sky did it!
