years late to this but holy fuck, this is one of the best games i have ever played. there is not a single thing i could nitpick about this. the only open world game to ever successfully make me feel like i'm really adventuring and exploring a fully realized and interesting world. great story, with great characters.
i love the choice to have hyrule castle and calamity ganon constantly looming in the background, reminding you of your end goal. it makes finally going to the castle feel so much more climatic and exciting.
so many things to say, but fuck it. i love this and it is undoubtedly in my top five games of all time. absolutely foaming at the mouth in anticipation of tears of the kingdom.
