Any new Zelda is bound to be high on lists like these, but TOTK is as close as a lock-in for GOTY as you can get.
It’s fun going back to threads from about a month before release, when the overall response was very mehh.
I feel I’m missing it out having it on the shelf…
Game is so good that it’s almost overwhelming lol
I rolled credits but I feel like I have soooo much left I want to get to. To be honest I do miss the older zelda formula, but as a chill open world experience botw/totk are both really incredible.
I miss it too, but they did a great job of being classic Zelda into an open world. The only way they can truly top TotK is by heavy story and more dungeons, but I’m just glad to have Gleeoks and other classic enemies, dungeon monsters, and side stories.
Maybe classic Zelda spinoffs will be linear stories like Twilight Princess.
