First time playing in 2024 while somehow dodging spoilers the whole time. Fantastic characters, writing, and combat system. The story is so sincere and hit such a range of emotions.

I can see the ambition behind the presentation and traversal, but moving around could be frustrating with it being unclear what can be walked on or not. This made for only a very minor detraction from a really fantastic game. This is one I will be thinking about for a long time.

Someone cooked here.

The game is better than Breath of the Wild in about every way. Objectively I liked it more. And yet, with 7 years of experience and skepticism under my belt, I didn't feel the same wonder.
