▲ 66 ▼ Zelda BotW vs TotK - which one should I buy? (feddit.uk) submitted 1 year ago by cloudless@feddit.uk to c/patientgamers@sh.itjust.works 57 comments fedilink hide all child comments I can only afford the time to play one of them, which one should I play? Many YouTubers seem to prefer BotW. But most reviews say TotK improves nearly everything. I prefer easier combat and less complexity. Is there one that would be more enjoyable for me?

My favorite Zelda games on Switch are Skyward Sword and Link's Awakening, which follow that formula, and my favorite overall is A Link to the Past, and each of those demonstrate what I'm talking about. permalink fedilink source parent
