'Breath of the Wild' was my favourite video game ever, and even as uninteresting and non-unique of a choice as that is, I have a really hard time choosing anything else. Other games that innovated the way BoTW did have fallen by the wayside, victims to time.
'Tears of the Kingdom' takes everything that I loved about 'Breath of the Wild' and expands on it, adding even more content while at the same time never making the original game obsolete. Formulaic as it is, I really see no option other than to award this titan of gaming the full 5 stars and slot it in as my new favourite game of all time, bumping BoTW down to 2nd. They're just perfect. Play them both!

Overall a pretty good ending to the first major arc of the FFXIV story. For me it failed to quite reach the highs of Shadowbringers and is marred by a few long sequences of tedious, intentionally irritating quests. Overall a satisfying conclusion to a game I've been playing for eight years, which is an impressive achievement.
