That's a fair point, I just know it's a common contrarian take and wanted to distance myself a little from that. I meant that I am aware I'm in the minority on it, it's not a purely bad feature, just one that doesn't work for me.

Before I say this I do admit I am in the wrong, and that an overwhelming majority of people love this game, and I understand that on an objective level it was both ground breaking and excellent.

I cannot, for the life of me, enjoy breath of the wild due to weapons breaking. I played maybe 5 hours? I got excited when I found a cool sword, and then proceeded to never use it because I was afraid to "waste" it. (and repeat that with new weapons, to save which I have to go find some little seed people to have more inventory slots?)

I understand that they want me to try new things, but for me, for some reason, it just wasn't fun. I want to be excited when I find new loot, not anxious. Maybe it's because I grew up with Diablo-like games, where accumulating loot was the fun part, but I can't seem to enjoy it when the game takes toys away from me.

In programming you can indent your code with tabs or spaces, which some people are very passionate about, but ultimately is a stylistic choice - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SsoOG6ZeyUI

I use it at home, about 3 years running on a small server in my closet.

I think it's hard to beat, but it's definitely not free in the long run - hard drive costs, electricity etc all factor in, your drives will die eventually and have to be replaced and they aren't cheap.

I run it in ubuntu snap because I was extremely lazy setting it up. It gave me plenty of headaches when I wanted to enable some plugins due to snap's security design, so I do wish I hosted it directly, but as far as day to day sync and usage it's been no issue.
