I'm going to be real- I enjoyed BotW and TotK enough, but I don't see them as traditional Zelda games and it actually pisses me off that Aonuma has come out and said we will NEVER get a traditional 3D Zelda ever again. So the success of the open-world Zeldas is the nail in the coffin for the games we actually grew up loving. The death of the open-world fad can't come soon enough, most of these games are nothing special.
I tried and hated both. Which sucks, because I have played just about every Zelda game up to botw. It's just not a Zelda game. It's generic open world adventure game number 58957853378 with a Zelda graphics pack...
I agree wholeheartedly, I haven't played any Zelda before BotW and based purely on reviews you'd think it's the second coming, but then it's just kind of a cool open-world puzzle game with truly atrocious combat system. It feels like some people just love bland and uninspired as long as it has Zelda branding.
