I didn't play BOTW, so I don't know what that's in reference to regarding Eventide, but I haven't had any real trouble to this point with just 3 hearts still.

I did everything I'm aware there is to do on the island and in the depths, and even if there is a situation that catches you off guard, having a handful of fairies on hand should save you from the rare occasion you get one shot (assuming you're not getting hit by stuff frequently).

The game just gives you way too many resources in combination with bullet-time arrows that combat isn't really a problem unless you get unexpectedly overwhelmed. But even if that happens, it's very easy then to retry and succeed with a plan in mind instead the next time. Just bomb arrows and dazzle fruits alone (not to mention puffshrooms, muddle buds, and I'm sure like a dozen other items you can shoot that I pretty much never use), trivialize regular enemies. Really, even just headshots without extra resources are usually more than enough.

The limiting factors are more so the damage your weapons deal and what resources you have in your inventory - not total hearts.

I will say that there was one part that was a bit more challenging that I decided to save for later. The boss above Eventide used up most of my bows (and this was before I found the guy to expand my pouches or whatever for more bows) and like all of my bomb flowers to that point, so I didn't save after that part since it seemed like a big waste of resources (plus the reward was pretty disappointing).
