Thank you for talking about some of the issues with BotW and how they have improved those aspects, this is one of the biggest things I wanted to hear discussed.

I sometimes have a hard time getting myself to get through big, open games like BOTW (Even though I loved it from the start). Blessing did a Breath of the Wylin' podcast with OK Beast that I randomly stumbled upon that helped me hype myself up to finally push to get a lot further into the game and I'm so glad I did. My favorite game of all time! And thanks to you, Blessing, I remember when you came to Kinda Funny and getting hyped because I recognized your voice from Wylin!

My biggest fear of ToTK is the building aspect. I love BoTW, but building isn't something I like doing in games. Can anyone let me know how much the building aspect is integrated in the game? Because from the trailers, it seems it's integral to completing missions/storylines.Btw, I'm asking while I just started the video so it may have been answered already 🙂

Okay, don't wanna be that guy, but as someone who enjoyed BotW, but thought it was incredibly overrated, I'm kinda worried that this is just a lot more of the same, only with Nuts and Bolts crafting, except we like it now because Zelda is cooler than Banjo, I guess. Like, the dungeons were short, and bad, all the boss fights were bad, the shrines were largely boring and repetitive, the open world was pretty, but felt populated by not a lot more than random enemy mobs, of which there were like 3 varieties, the story was 4 cutscenes in a trenchcoat spread over 100 hours, and weapon degradation was the worst implementation of a mechanic no one likes. Shocked it's 'the best game in the world to so many', but even accepting that people think that, I'm still not sure what this game offers aside from a bigger map, and kart building.

Blessing if you see this, I have a question. Regarding the similarities of reusing Hyrule from the first game to this one. Would you compare it to how bloodborn old hunters DLC took the same area, but revamped the entire thing because they went to the past. Or you wouldn’t say they revamped it to that extent? Because I’m trying to get a good sense of what do you mean when you say they have more points of interest so that makes me assume that everything is the exact same. Every route is the exact same. However, every major and minor point of interest before probably has overgrown vegetation and different enemy placements possibly new buildings that’s what I’m assuming.

I still think it feels unfinished, sorta indie earky access but big scale. I mean nintendo is a HUGE company with HUGE wallets and stillcant afford proper voice acting? Like sure i can read but when the AAA game industry standard is so much higher with voice acting and polish this game still doesnt deserve to get the review scores it does… Its a great game, but you have to look at what it could have been if Nintendo wasnt cheaping out on us… Sure we can agree gameplay is the most important but when a company like Nintendo cut corners like they were a tiny indie studio, on a flagship title? That is not doing their best… That is not trying to give us the best product they possibly can… That is basically giving us a techdemo, another gameplay idea showcase so they can sell early access copies hoping to finance updates that will polish it to a finished product. But the updates wont come. I would give it an 8 maybe a 9 out of 10.
