This game managed to take everything that Breath of the Wild did and multiply it by ten!
Everything in this game is a huge improvement, the new abilities are great, the building is fun as hell, and the ability to fuse anything to arrows and weapons really expands upon the combat.
They brought temples back and they're all really fun to explore and solve puzzles in, the bosses are a huge improvement over the many Ganons you fought in the last game.
Speaking of which, Ganondorf is back and he has a way bigger presence in the story than Calamity Ganon did, and the final fight against him makes that one look pitiful in comparison.
The Master Sword is also a way bigger deal in this game than it was in the last one, like you don't need DLC to power this bad boy up, it's already at max power from the get go, and it feels more necessary to finish the story with this time around.
And I made sure to do everything from conquering all of the shrines to lighting up the depths, and other stuff that gets into spoiler territory.
So yeah, long story short, this is Breath of the Wild, but better in every possible way.
