Who’s playing it? What do you think? I play it a lot with my girlfriend (we got it one week after the release date). It’s definitely interesting because there’s so much overlap with Breath of the Wild (the main landscapes, many NPCs, the overall gameplay, etc.) but with many new mechanics (crafting, building vehicles, some new collectibles) and a more emotional/complex storyline. But it also feels a bit like a drag sometimes, because there’s so much to do and discover! And there isn’t always a clear path about what to do next.

Anyway, curious to hear your thoughts!

And there isn’t always a clear path about what to do next.

But that's part of the fun of an open-world game, the freedom and the joy of discovering things on your own! I also like that the game doesn't spam with you quests so you lose track of what you're doing, unlike some other mainstream open-world games. BotW as bit too hands-off though, but TotK has struck the right balance IMHO.

I'm about 100hours in and still enjoying it - can see myself playing this for at least 500+ hours I reckon.
