A lot of people seem to feel that TotK is so much better than BotW, in so many ways, that playing BotW any more would feel almost pointless.

While I can understand that, TotK is truly amazing in almost every way, I find myself missing BotW.

I miss that desolate feeling, the Guardian induced anxiety, and the difficulty of a lot of BotW that I feel is missing from TotK.

BotW and TotK are the 2 sides of a single coin, neither complete without the other.

I’m already looking forward to another playthrough of both games! (only 68% so far on TotK still!)

    Breath of the Wild was the better first-time experience. Discovering Hyrule and the intricate world they created was awe inspiring playing it on launch 6 years ago. With Tears of the Kingdom there wasn’t as many surprises (apart from the first few hours in the depths). Having said that, I’m more likely to replay Tears of the Kingdom just because of how much more it gives the player to do and to work with. It’s an evolution and improvement on BotW in almost every other way, from mechanics, to dungeons, to story.

    Honnestly I just bought myself a Switch and I’m just amazed by BotW and am really enjoying it however I do feel like some of the story telling aspect is lacking & I was told that TotK does not disappoint in that department and now I am also even more looking forward to TotK, urgh I love The Legend of Zelda sooo muuuch

      Have fun I put 400-500 hours in botw over all my playthroughs and I will playthrough again next year once I finish totk… word of advice, imho it’s best to just play botw nice and slow I rushed my first playthrough and it wasn’t until my second that I discovered sooo much cool stuff I’d missed out on by not exploring that next hill top or seeing what was around that corner…
