A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

It took me so many attempts to get into BotW. It’s so big and scattered and just never hooked me. When it finally did I was happy I had to play very purposely I had 5 goals and just beelined each one. Get the master sword, kill the 5 bosses. Done. I didn’t do any side quests and I’ve never gone back to it. I had 95 hours in TotK in like a month which is crazy for me. Game is amazing and I did a lot more in it. I think combat is about the same. I do think TotK may be more complicated but you can simply not engage with the features you don’t want to.
I will say though TotK hits better after BotW
