So I finally started it.

It's a fine game.

I'm thoroughly enjoying it.

I'm old. I'm patient.

Please, please don't mention spoilers if possible. I love to crack nuts the old fashioned way. ๐Ÿ™‚

ToTK is way more about the puzzles than BoTW was. Figuring out how to put together a device to solve a given puzzle is a huge portion of the game. That's what I mean when I say the different powers make it a wildly different game. Ultrahand alone is the source of hundreds of puzzles way more entertaining than the whole "pick up the out-of-place rock to find a korok" type filler that BoTW has.

    Huh, maybe I'll like it then. But "everyone" seems to love BotW, and "everyone" seems to say "if you like BotW, you'll love TotK." So I'm skeptical.

    I much preferred Skyward Sword and Link's Awakening, so I'll probably go back through the Zelda games I missed (Game Cube and Wii eras) before playing TotK. But I'll recheck the reviews again the next time I get a hankering for a Zelda game. Thanks!

    Oh man, if you haven't played Wind Waker, make that one a priority.

    Having beaten both the original and the HD version, the HD version is better because the original version of collecting the triforce shards towards the end of the game is a slog and the HD version cuts down on that tedium quite a bit.
