Breath of the Wild/Tears of the Kingdom.

I love Zelda I always have. The first game I ever played was the original Zelda on the NES and I was hooked ever since. I've even played most of the games and really enjoyed all of them.

But there's one glaring issue that I have with botw/totk. The weapon/armor system. I hate games with weapon/armor degradation and Zelda's system is even worse than normal.

They went from weapons never breaking or taking damage at all, to shields taking damage but get the Hylian shield and it's unbreakable, to every single weapon and shield breaks after a pathetic amount of uses.

I would've even been fine with an Oblivion style degradation system where the weapon does less damage the more damaged it is but can be repaired with the right tool or by going to a blacksmith.

It's even worse when you notice that higher tier weapons break faster than lower tier ones, or that enemies can use weapons forever, yet the chosen fuckin hero only gets about 15 whacks before a solid piece of wood/metal just fuckin explodes.

This is why I don't get Zelda games anymore. I also am not a fan of the huge open world thing that makes most of your game time running from place to place so they don't have to make much content.
