I think a lot of time and effort went into creating the open world and physics that it just lost a a lot of the other things that could have made it good in my eyes.

felt no incentive to explore at all

Ah I dont like that

I didn't enjoy BotW either

I hate when ppl say its a zelda game story isnt the highlight

but thats not true at all

People rave about how it's so big and aimless where you can do anything and explore whatever but....there's jackshit to explore

and I was really disappointed in the shrines, found them to be too samey in terms of aesthetics

i also disagree on the story bit otti

Anything you go to find is most likely a weapon that will break in 20 hits

Sure they have always been simplistic but the story has been something Zelda has put work into since 2000

zelda games can have amazing stories

majora's mask being a prime example

I mean sure, but story was never really the main selling point of them

twlight princess was also decent

really?

I think the older zelda's are definitely less Story focused but they have definitely become a bigger part of it

for me they kinda are

From my experience, yeah

I think they have

oh man

look at skyward and twilight

i loved skyward's characters and story

Skyward Sword

skyward also has my favorite atmosphere and cast in zelda
