I missed the original so I was excited to have this opportunity. I really immersed myself in the world and took my time scanning everything, reading the lore, and enjoying the spectacular atmosphere. The combat didn't do as much for me but I view the combat as secondary to the exploration and general vibes. I was ready to declare this a masterpiece but the ending is a bit of a collectathon slog and there's too much backtracking and dated Gamecube era shit for my taste. It's similar to Wind Waker where it really should wrap up but they pad it too much. Still, a banger through and through.
