Wow

I think you could make great arguments for both. Would handheld gaming be the same without the explosive popularity of Tetris and its 35 million copies sold on game boy?

Would Nintendo still exist without Mario?

uh

Going to go Tetris but damn its close

I'm not 100% sure how I feel about the world because while there's more stuff, there's a lot more of the copy/paste design you see in other open world games. In BotW, this was mostly limited to Koroks and the Test of Strength shrines.

The difference to me is the shrines are fun. I hate open world collectathons that feel like chores, especially when there is no gameplay and it is spelled out exactly where it is making it a job

BotW and TotK do neither. The collectible items are both fun to find because they are all tied to mini challenges (From the obvious shrines to the less obvious spelunking to find the hidden rooms with the frogs) and also because the game doesnt tell you where they are its fun stumbling on them or spotting them from far away while exploring.

I love it so much. I am so over games that are jobs where a 5 year old could follow a list of commands and get all the collectibles

As someone who disliked breath of the wild, I'm really enjoying this. My biggest complaint about the game being so empty has seemingly been solved (so far, only about to enter the first dungeon)

It definitely feels like there is more stuff to do now.

I just spent half an hour tearing my hair out trying to find the weapon expansion guy going to exactly where guides said he would be.

Turns out if you get far enough in the game he isn't there any more and guides are wrong. Annoying

BotW would be objectively 100x better without a stamina bar, just using Enemy difficulty as a means of gatekeeping the more secretive areas.

You are designing a completely different game. This is elden ring

Getting more stamina to climb higher is part of BotW

It wouldnt shock me if BotW hasnt held up imcredibly well, especially considering Elden ring has come out since then.

But it seems like some people just cant figure out how to have fun in a video game any more without the game telling them what fun is supposed to be with Ubisoft map icons.

Breath of the wild was awesome because I remember the first time I decided to climb a mountain I started freezing to death and I went oh of course I would. Duh I loved that it let you go out and just do stuff and interesting things would be around. I didnt need a reward for looking into a labyrinth, the fun was finding a big random labyrinth

Maybe they should just each pay 4x as much so there's no incentive to work 4 jobs? But I'm also not really sure why this is a problem that needs solving, who cares what people are doing if it's not affecting their work?

If people didn't start the trend of overemployment this wouldn't be happening.

Unfortunately bringing in people once a week or so is probably necessary to make sure people don't have 4 jobs going on at the same time. The alternative would be upping surveillance but I would much rather come in once a week than have my company spying on me all of the time

Hogwarts Legacy, a well received AAA game with one of the most popular IPs in the world, infinite marketing, sold gangbusters....and nobody remembers, cares about, or will ever talk about it again.

That game fell off the face of the earth.

Uh, I'm sure many people who talk about it are either choosing to not talk about it on the internet for obvious reasons or aren't on the same social platforms you are looking at.

Though it could be that it's just a single player experience. I haven't seem people talking much about elden ring lately for the same reason.
