After 110+ hours spread across 6 years i've beaten BotW, or what i considered to be a desirable amount of completion (all main quests, 100 of 124 shrines, 30+ of 70+ side-quests).

The game is wonderful, it's world is picturesque and emits history. The exploration is wondrous and addictive. The gameplay loop is pleasant and engaging. My few gripes would be a lack of diversity in some of the main story structure, same-y visual presentation of "dungeons", and bit lacking story, although it can be argued that it's simplicity against a humongous world populated by stuff to do and discover was actually a touch of genius.
