I had around 150 by the time I completed the game.

Bonus question: what percentage completion do you have?

I'm sitting on 50.5% right now.

About 5. It really wasn't doing it for me. I should probably try again since it was so damn expensive, but I really wasn't getting what I hoped out of a new BOTW-style zelda game.

Are you from Mars or something? But seriously, go back and give it another try. It's one of the few games I've played in the last number of years that's kept me coming back.

It feels like a breath of the wild gmod rom hack that gives me neither of what either games provide

So like mostly the tutorial area? I wasn't feeling it either for the first maybe 10 hours, but then I got most of the starter quests out of the way, started to set my own goals and the game really opened up like BotW. I'm about 150 hours in and there's still so much to do.

I got off the tutorial island 1-2 hours of gameplay ago. So far it feels like a sloppier version of BOTW with significantly more tutorials (for things BOTW taught me without a tutorial!) that is way more linear, and I really do not get the hype at all. I went around trying to turn towers on to try and feel some freedom and am really shocked by how identical the overworld is. Any time I enter caves I die instantly so apparently I’m ages off from being allowed to explore those. If I could return it I would have.

The depths are kinda boring - the environment is very bland, it's all the same shit. Being able to jump out of the sky to get to any land objective is convenient and kinda kills the whole aspect of riding around on your horse which I really enjoyed in BoTW. The sky areas are very cool, I do enjoy them. It was kinda neat to see the same kingdom plus changes. New abilities are cool. Vehicles are kinda meh since wings and balloons time out, and you're almost guaranteed on your land rig to quickly run into an obstacle it cannot pass, making it kinda useless. All that said, I'm still having a lot of fun with it, but it's not as good as I was hoping.

Depths are more interesting the more you explore them, especially all the yiga clan outposts. I don't think it's meant for you to stay down there too long though. The sky islands to get around is amazing, flying around feels like super hero shit. And you still need a horse to get around to areas you haven't explored yet. Vehicles and wings still last a LONG time before they expire and you can just make another one... and if your ground vehicle hits an obstacle either use bigger wheels or just pick it up... I am not seeing how any of this is an issue.
