I don't understand why everybody is so "into Zelda". To be honest: I never played it, but my children have played the first and the second part for weeks on the TV.

I remember how I bought them the second Zelda-part and have seen them playing on TV. And I asked: "Why are you playing the first part when I just bought you this (expensive) second part??" And they told me that they ARE playing the second part. And I was like:"WHHAAATTTTT?? Looks EXACTLY like the first part!! I see NO difference!"

My children really loved both parts and say the second part have A LOT great improvments. But I see the "same game" with improvents (and without housing!!). Ok, the improvments are great, but why does everybody treat this game like a new game. It is somehow unfair ...

.... just my personal opinion.

TotK uses the foundations of BotW to create a gaming experiences that is completely different from its predecessor. It is absolutely a brand new game and one of the most creative reinventions of a game series I’ve ever played. This is the common opinion, as there were very few players voicing any consternation about the gaming feeling like a rehash.

This does require a certain creative input from the player though. It’s possible to approach TotK just like BotW and really miss out on what made the game unique. My cousin did this, frustrating me to no end. Never built any vehicles at all. Rode a horse around everywhere.

Meanwhile the first thing I did was design a personal battle mech for quick map traversal and enemy clearing.
