Breath of the wild. As an avod Zelda fun I really really tried to like it but just can't do it.
Same. People like to call it a groundbreaking open world game when its exactly like all the others: a big world filled with the same few activities copy pasted over and over.
It just doesn't feel as hand crafted as the older games. There's a current push and pull between "exploratoration/discovery" driven open world games vs "content bloat, sensory overload" open world games, but so few developers seem to be asking "should this be an open world game at all?"
