Did you like skyward sword? Was the weakest Zelda game for me. Part of me wonders if they simply had to make a big change from traditional to freshen it up and that the original quality is more the nostalgia.
This one is so interconnected with the world, the verticality is dark souls 1 levels, there's so much to do everywhere and you can just roam around and get lost for hours just getting distracted. The building aspect is just unreal as well, but I can appreciate not everyone would care for it. I think I'll always miss the original weapon system, where it felt a huge deal getting the bow or hookshot and it unlocking new things around the world, but i don't think it's possible in any way here, so the weapon system with durability is pretty much the only way to do it IMO. Hoping they have some quality dungeons and memorable dungeon bosses, have no doubt about the latter given the enemy variety so far that I've come across. And the story is excellent IMO.
