    Hmm, not the most insightful comment, but this looks incredibly boring and uninspired to me, yet there seems to be some hype around it. Has the Nintendo fan following really become so insular to not realize what a boring rehash this is likely going to be?

      “Boring and uninspired” applies to yearly Call of Duty and sports game releases, and whatever is vomited out by certain AAA companies with horrible track records.

      a boring rehash

      I highly doubt it.

        Obviously there are worse examples, but how is this anything but “more of the same”?

          Generally franchises don’t reinvent the wheel with each release. Botw was a successful reinvention so why not release an iteration. Note I don’t have a switch, never played BOTW.

            I liked how Zelda Ocarina, Windwaker, and Twilight were all similar, but by twilight I was over the formula a bit. Same with Metroid Prime and RE4, what did I want? More of the same, until stale, rinse repeat.
