Do You Still Love BotW? (self.zelda)

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!)

I think they compliment each other real well. 2 sides of a single coin, like you said, is a great way to put it.

BOTW was great exploring and discovering a broken land. TOTK is more like a rebuilding. Yeah there's destruction and bad guys, but all of Hyrule feels alive and working with each other.

I do miss all those bombs and statising the enemies. I love the added caves to search in though.

Exactly that! I loved the quiet desolate feel in BotW. But i think the caves are possibly my favorite addition the the TotK Hyrule.
