I love being in an open world which has cool stuff all around it. When I see a weird looking cliff and climb it, there being an item or just anything of importance up there ties me to this game like nothing else. It's definitely one of the first games where I started realising the importance of games in my life, but that doesn't mean it's perfect. Nintendo has done a good job of presenting the player with a lot of same-y content (Reused assets and enemies) and make it blend in - at least for me - seamlessly.
