    Tears of the Kingdom is a terrible game, it’s a mod of BOTW but with more ways to skip the exploration so you don’t get to memorize the map like in Elden Ring or Fallout.

      I’m not sure I exactly agree. I feel like it would be a better game than botw if I hadn’t already played botw. Still suffered from most of the same problems.

      Also the combat is so bad it encouraged you to avoid it whenever possible.

      It’s definitely a glorified DLC that was stretched into a whole game. The new things are mostly good but 80% is just exactly the same.

      I wouldn’t say terrible but mid possibly. It just took something that already worked well and added a little extra to it.

      If “thing2: the sequel” attaches a something kinda neato to the revolutionary, gaming landscape changing “thing1:the thingining” that doesn’t mean thing2 is really better than something that significantly moved the bar.

      This is why Fallout 3 is better than Fallout New Vegas and I will fight you all over it.
