Anon you can't win against post-BotW zeldafags if you make retarded arguments like these, you can't win against them either way because its impossible to convince stupid people of anything without tricking them into thinking they came up with it first, but that aside, atleast try to criticize the games on the merit of what they fail to do within their own systems. Durability systems aren't inherently bad and a preference against them is ultimately an emotional thing, but the reason ToTK is a shit game is because it's a bad game on its own merits and as an open world sandbox.

PC handhelds can do a shitload more than any console too, such as just plug them into a monitor with hdmi or use whatever controller you want.
The switch dock is literally just glorified hdmi and the switch nukes itself in handheld mode while a pc handheld gives you full control. Not to mention consoles are in for a very rude awakening once their stockpiles run out and new contracts have to be signed. They're already boiling the frogs on that massive inevitable sticker shock.

>Skyward Sword
I know it's a meme, but it's the causality of why BotW (and ALBW) exist. They tried something new and failed miserably, so they went hard in the opposite direction to course correct by reducing the game design to marketability, rather than ingenuity or creativity. THAT BEING SAID, what really killed the franchise is the developers just aren't very good at game design. More accurately, they neglected to improve over the years, choosing to remain comfortable because there was no real pressure to improve. So even by Twilight Princess the game design and writing (and to a lesser extent graphics) were below average compared to [OTHER GAMES], but it's a famous IP with nostalgia attached to it, so it skirts by. Over the years this never and still hasn't changed, compounding exponentially up to present day, wherein the series is virtually unrecognizable creatively but also terrible mechanically.
But it's overall comfortable. It's inoffensive to play. Not rewarding in the long run, but also not insulting in the short term. That's all Zelda is, and has been, for over two decades.

Did anyone notice how quick the Zelda general and discussion overall dropped after it got mogged by that Bear Sex game out of GoTY? Made even funnier by the fact that Nintendo delayed ToTK to avoid the mogging it woulda got from Elden Ring.

Seeing the odd thread like this pop up brings me some good nostalgia. I felt robbed from ToTK and I emulated the shit, didn't spend a dime. I feel even more scammed because I genuinely thought ToTK was gonna be one of the best open world games of all time, just viewing BotW as the blatant tech demo it clearly was.

>Shrines were repetitive
>enemy variety was a joke
>swapping dungeons for divine beasts was a mistake

I thought they would unironically fix it and I even remained optimistic even after finding out that the map was being reused
>There's gonna be some Majoras Mask switch up, I just know it. Nintendo ain't that retarded
>they were that retarded

The fucking Sky Islands which was the entire and only sell of the reused world was fucking barely used in comparison to the fucking underground. Shit made me so mad knowing they spent time designing that ugly barren area as opposed to just giving us more sky shit. It really hit me how fucking bad ToTK was when I got to the little fisherman town where you get that god awful Tarrey Town quest in BoTW

>get to the village
>turns out the village has been hijacked by fucking pirate monsters, even get to see a massive pirate ship
>get excited thinking "thank fuck there's some actual new enemies"
>it's literally bokoblins

Fuck ToTK

All 3 are infinitely more successful both critically (won more awards) and commercially (sold more). And I only picked other high fantasy open worlds because extending it would turn it into a list that gets to be too large (Rockstars games for example) Hope that answers your question.
>>
>>748908428
Less interesting game that sold more, won more GoTYs and still sees daily threads on /v/ and an active general? Maybe ToTK should have been a little less interesting and it still woulda been relevant in 2026.

Amazes me that in the year of our lord 2001 + 16, somebody actually thought that mandatory bullet time was a good idea and doesn't completely trivialize the potential of the combat, of which there is already very little due to the enemy A.I. being borderline retarded.

I stand to reason that it still wouldn't fix the gameplay entirely. The enemies are still incredibly slow and stupid, nevermind the fatal flaw that they're almost entirely optional. That's a major issue IMO; that the world is basically an MMO by design in that it waits for (You) to come to it, and nothing in the world can leave its pitifully small designated area.
The only real motivation to ever fight anything is because you want to play a video game, but the combat sucks so it never really feels like you're doing anything but whaling on handicapped retards. There's hardly any gatekeeping despite the setting. It's pitiful.
In the immortal words of some dude whose name I can't remember but who worked on the original Halo trilogy

>>748926871
lol no.

Half Life was impressive at the time for its physics-based gameplay. But but Tears of the Kingdom is vastly more complex in systemic game design. Nintendo built an entirely physics-driven world around multiplicative mechanics (Ultrahand, Fuse, Recall) that deliberately generate endless emergent solutions without forced interactions, across a vast multi-layered open world, creating far greater player freedom, depth, and technical challenges of engine stability under arbitrary player constructions.
>>
>>748927454
>But but Tears of the Kingdom is vastly more complex in systemic game design.
It can't even match Terraria or Minecraft.
>>
>>748927586
Terraria is 2D. You're not even using the same parts of your brain when playing 2D vs 3D.

Minecraft isn't anything remotely as conplex as TotK.

And both these games are procedurally generated slop vs Nintendo curated hand-crafted open world.

What is copypasted in Tears Of The Kingdom?

I'm in the middle of playing through it. It's alright. I like it better than BotW, since it has actual dungeons and bosses and the powers are more fun to use than BotW's. Still doesn't really compare to other 3D Zelda's.
>>
>>748927714
>they're not as complex as TOTK
And yet you can't even destroy the world or reshape the terrain in TOTK. If I want, I could build a humongous tower that spans to the heavens in both Minecraft and Terraria. What does Zelda let you build? Some gay commieblocks, and only in an "approved" building area? In both MC and Terraria I have the freedom to create civilizations. They will live where I tell them, with minimal complaint. They will accept my housing accommodations. And they will do it with a smile.

If I want fast travel around the world, it isn't handed to me magically, like the game is taking pity on me. I must build it, but I have the freedom to build it, to make it my own. There is even multiple flavors of it. Town pylons, the shellphone, elevators, teleporters, asphalt roads, minecarts. The list goes on and on.

Where is that freedom in TOTK? Can you even build vehicles or infratstructure that aren't horrible restricted or disappear after a few seconds? I guess maybe a raft. Oh, but those are heavily restricted.
>>
>>748928058
>you can't even destroy the world or reshape the terrain in TOTK. If I want, I could build a humongous tower that spans to the heavens in both Minecraft and Terraria

Because Minecraft and Terraria are procedurally generated slop and Zelda is a handcrafted world. If all you want is lego bricks then have at it. Enjoy your slop.

You take the same puzzle, copy it nearly 250 times across both games, and then slightly change it so you can smugly say "see? technically they didn't copy it". And that's just rock ring puzzles. 250 pieces of shit that take no effort to solve and are greedily hogging space where an actually engaging puzzle could've been.

>b-but they're not the main gameplay
That makes it worse. Going off the beaten path should reward you with even more difficult puzzles. The main path is the one where you have standard difficulty, but optional content should push you to your limit. Much like a JRPG and how its regular bosses are standard fare, but the superbosses are optional, so they can be much more difficult.

But I guess Zelda just doesn't understand this concept.

Koroks are a fun reward for players exploring and are tied to a cognitive phenomenon called Apophenia - which the tendency of the human mind to notice things which look strange or out place.

Discovering Koroks lead to player growth and agency.

Not hard to grasp these things if you have a mental age above 12.
>>
>>748930526
Where is the fun if there's no challenge? Why would you want to interact with baby puzzles that treat you like you're a child? Player growth and agency can only happen if you're being pushed to improve. Putting a ball in a cup is not my idea of "cognitive growth".
