#anything i have against totk in comparison to botw has been said by various other people by now

i was pretty moody when i made the original post, but yeah. botw felt special in a way totk completely dropped the ball on. i'm personally a totk hater, but i'm not going to go into major detail about that here on this particular post, but something else i will say is: maybe it was just me, but i remember enjoying just standing around in different areas in botw and just taking in the atmosphere and view, while in totk, despite its beautiful scenery in the sky and whatnot, i just. found myself so bored 90% of the time and didn't get that same sense of just wanting to vibe in it, and instead basically speedran it when i played, not even caring to do most of the sidequests.

another thing that kind of really annoys me, back even before i started really accepting just how much i disliked totk (because trust me, it was really hard for me to accept it), is how when it first came out you had so many people being like "there's no reason to play botw now/why would you still play botw in 2023 and on?" like idk, maybe because it's a game you all seemed to be obsessed with for 6+ years?? it's still its own game with its own story and lore (that totk clearly did not follow up on)? like, idk man, i just do not get the whole "new game out, this game sucks now" mindset, do you all really move on that fucking easily even when you claimed you loved that game so much before? i play totk and find myself just wanting to replay botw, not the other way around
