Nah. BotW had the bigger initial wow factor, but TotK improved in basically every way over BotW.
Irregardless, for all intensive purposes, I could care less.

TotK makes BotW look like a tech demo of the game they actually wanted to make

TotK has more content, but the phrase "wide as an ocean and deep as a puddle" comes to mind.

Like it has tons of new shit, but it's kinda integrated really awkwardly into the world and isn't especially fun to do

the freshness of botw works heavily in its favor.

totk is the better game.

BotW was already one of my favorite games. And if they had made a new Zelda with a completely world and lore with TotK's awesome new mechanics, I may have liked it more. But there was just too much familiarity in TotK for me to like it more than the original.

The awe wasn't as big for me this time around.

Fighting Guardians was way more fun than Phantoms, Phantom was really cool the first time, but just not as fun

I disliked how TotK's world seemed less "natural." The Shrines all emitted magical green swirls in the sky, and the map stations were basically giant bat signals. The mess of lights made the world look messy and un-aesthetic. I much prefer the gentle orange glow of BotW's shrines.

It's a very minor gripe, but one I've never heard anyone mention before.

Totk was just a retread of what we already did with some new areas. BotW is better imo
Common sense says it may not taste good, but it'll make a turd.

Facts.

I played through BotW multiple times in different ways. My Master Mode file has all Koroks, Shrines, 100% map completion, all quests completed, all Horse armors collected, all monster medals, complete compendium, all DLC complete, and all armor upgrades (excluding all the Garb of X Amiibo drops, because fuck farming that many stars), and anything else I may be forgetting.

I'm currently on my second play of TotK and plan to do the same. Doing it without Airbike, and having a blast. I feel like going back to BotW at this point would be redundant when TotK has everything BotW has to offer and more. The only things I really miss are Rivali's Gale and bombs as an ability rather than a consumable.

Yep, agreed. Especially considering the dungeons of TotK are way better than BotW, and honestly some of my favorite in the series
